Chapter Vol. 1 Ch. 35

Volume 1 Chapter 35: Normal People

“Black Bean~ When you grow up a bit, shall we get you neutered?”

Early in the morning, Ning Chu squatted in the corner of the dormitory, hands propped on his knees, whispering devilishly.

“In that case, even if you really turn into a catgirl, you’ll be a neutered catgirl, right?”

The kitten yawned and lifted its head, ungracefully rolled around, and lay down by his feet.

“Is it feeling better now?”

“Yeah, seems to be much better.”

Wen Yang sat at the head of the bed, looking at the delicate and lovely figure squatting in the corner from afar. “That’s good. Have you thought of a name for it?”

“Um— any name is fine. How about Black Bean?”

“How about we call it Chocolate?”

Ning Chu suddenly turned his head, looking up at Wen Yang on the upper bunk.

“What’s wrong?” Wen Yang scratched his head, “I think that’s a good name. Chocolate is black, and it’s black too.”

Now it could be completely confirmed that this little cat was the catgirl who repaid Wen Yang from the plot.

That catgirl was also named Chocolate…

Sure enough, he ends up inviting trouble into the house!

If it weren’t for him messing things up, perhaps yesterday afternoon Wen Yang would have brought the little kitten back to the dormitory.

“Not a nice name…” Ning Chu was inspired and started naming based on food, “Let’s call it Black Bean!”

“Sure.” Wen Yang didn’t insist, rolled off the bed, “It’s your cat, you decide.”

“Yeah.”

Fortunately, it’s just a little kitten, currently posing no threat to Wen Yang’s virginity. If he’s not mistaken, this cat is only about a month old, still almost a year away from maturity.

During this year, the plot of the catgirl repaying kindness couldn’t happen because minors are forbidden from… well, you know!

No need to panic!

Ning Chu gently touched Black Bean’s little head with his finger, stretched lazily, and stood up straight, looking out the window.

The torrential rain ended last night, and the window was met with the annoying bright sunshine.

It’s time for military training again…

Without cat food, Ning Chu could only leave a bowl of goat’s milk and a piece of crushed ham sausage for Black Bean. After having breakfast in the dormitory, he followed several roommates out of the dormitory.

The sunny day after the rain felt like being inside a huge steamer. As Ning Chu arrived at the damp sports field, sweat had already formed on his forehead.

The high humidity combined with the high temperature made it feel like the air being breathed in carried heat.

“Left turn! About turn! Stand at ease!”

As usual during military training, the instructor seemed to have a bit more mischievousness today. From time to time, someone reacted too slowly and made mistakes, causing laughter among the classmates, which brought a bit of fun to the monotonous military training.

It was rare that Han Jingye also came to the training ground today.

He found a place not far away and sat down, gazing at the students undergoing training.

He must be looking for prey again!

Ning Chu muttered to himself about Han Jingye, but the image of this counselor had already wavered in his mind.

No matter how you looked at it, he didn’t seem like a bad person— he seemed more like a dedicated counselor.

Perhaps sensing the humid weather today, the instructor didn’t take long to announce a break. Ning Chu hurriedly ran to the shade of a tree and didn’t mind the slightly damp ground as he sat down directly.

Crossing his legs, he took out his phone to buy some cat food online for Black Bean.

“What brand of cat food is good?”

The prices here were similar to those in his previous life, ranging from tens to hundreds of yuan. He didn’t plan to buy top-notch cat food, as long as Black Bean ate something nutritious and didn’t get sick.

However, even so, he found flaws in all the various brands recommended online.

Some had worms, some were moldy, and some caused the cat to die after eating…

After struggling, he chose a 200 yuan, ten-kilogram bag of cat food. After clicking to pay, Ning Chu looked at the insufficient balance prompt and suddenly realized that he was completely broke.

He had spent quite a bit of money last weekend at the amusement park with Wen Yang, and recently he had been constantly fooled by Zhang Shaoqing into buying discounted bubble tea and late-night snacks. There was still nearly a week left until the end of the month, but he only had a little over 100 yuan left.

“Oh no…”

A little over 100 yuan would be enough for him to save, but what about the cat? He couldn’t just drink goat’s milk and eat ham sausage every day, could he?@@novelbin@@

Thinking of this, he realized that the day his parents gave him his living expenses was approaching.

What would his parents be like in this world…

Although his family had left early in his previous life, the inexplicable addition of parents here still made Ning Chu feel a bit repulsed.

Wen Yang sat beside him, hearing him muttering to himself softly, curiously turning his head to look.

Ning Chu’s hair tips were already wet with sweat, sticking to his forehead and temples. It didn’t look messy, but rather gave Wen Yang a sense of delicate beauty.

At the same time, he once again caught a whiff of that indescribable fragrance.

Every time Ning Chu sweated, this scent became especially clear.

Sensing the gaze beside him, Ning Chu looked up in confusion. Wen Yang quickly shifted his gaze to the screen of his phone. “Buying cat food for Black Bean?”

“Yeah, but I don’t have enough money…”

“Then just buy a sample pack to try. After all, the kitten won’t eat too much.”

“That makes sense!”

Ning Chu’s eyes lit up as he immediately searched for sample packs of cat food on the online shopping platform. However, his peripheral vision remained on the pink thermos cup in Wen Yang’s hand.

As if casually, he asked, “Which girl gave you that? It’s nice~”

“I don’t like drinking plum soup either, it’s from yesterday morning.” Wen Yang sighed helplessly, “That girl looked so aggrieved, I felt like if I didn’t drink it, she would cry.”

“That girl…” Ning Chu pursed his lips.

It seemed that only plot characters would relentlessly pursue Wen Yang, while non-plot characters behaved more normally. Although they expressed their liking for Wen Yang, at least they didn’t directly demand his DNA.

Finally, he encountered a normal person!

Liking someone but not daring to say it, only being able to silently give a bottle of plum soup, watching the boy you like from afar— This shy and naive romance was so touching in this overly sexual world.

“What’s wrong? Are you upset?” Wen Yang teased with a smile. “Don’t you also have someone who likes you? The owner of the coffee shop is a rich woman, I envy you.”

“My small build probably can’t handle a rich woman’s fuss.”

“You’re thinking too much.” Wen Yang glanced at the screen of Ning Chu’s phone again and reminded him, “The cat food can just scroll past, why not buy one?”

Ning Chu shook his head. “It’s too expensive, 20 yuan!”

“I’ll pay for that, consider it a welcome gift for Black Bean.”

But he looked at Wen Yang suspiciously. “You don’t even have enough money for food, where did you get the money to buy canned food for Black Bean?”

“Did you get a part-time job? Or did some girl give you money to spend?”

Wen Yang felt a strong sense of pressure suddenly emanating from Ning Chu’s body, and he instinctively felt a little guilty, his body involuntarily leaning back. “No.”

“No?”

“I just did some gaming boosting for someone last night and earned over twenty.”

Ning Chu suddenly smiled brightly. “I see.”
