Volume 1 Chapter 210: Using Brother’s Money to Support Another Man
After shopping, Ning Chu went to the hospital for a check-up. By the time she got home in the evening, she was physically and mentally exhausted, collapsing onto the sofa.
She’s so tired… All of her energy is completely drained…
Fortunately, she didn’t have to go through a gynecological exam. Otherwise, there might have been one of those examination chairs commonly seen in certain hentai doujin, the kind where legs need to be spread apart…
The test results would take some time to come out, but her mother had found the doctor who had examined Ning Chu when she was a child and got a medical certificate. This would make it easier to change the gender on her ID card in the countryside the next day.
“Be more ladylike.” Her mother sat down beside her and lightly smacked her raised leg. “You’re going to expose yourself.”
“……”
Ning Chu quickly glanced in the direction of her older brother and, feeling guilty, put her legs down.
It’s fine. He couldn’t have seen anything from that angle.
She was now wearing the dress her mother had bought for her. Although it was already November, the average temperature was still over 20 degrees Celsius. Pairing it with slightly thicker stockings and a light jacket when going out was enough.
But the short skirt made her feel extremely insecure. It didn’t even have pockets, leaving her with nowhere to store her hypnosis spray. She had to leave it in her mother’s handbag instead.
Once she was back at school, she would probably have to switch back to men’s clothing to avoid being gossiped about being a crossdresser.
“I’ll go get some cake for you. Rest at home for half an hour, and I’ll call you downstairs later.”
“Mm~”
Ning Chu sprawled lazily on the sofa, resting her head on a cushion while her legs dangled over the armrest. She held her phone and checked Wen Yang’s replies.
“You look great.”
“So beautiful.”
“I’m using it as my wallpaper now.”
Typical straight guy—he didn’t even know how to properly compliment his girlfriend.
Ning Chu pouted in dissatisfaction and sent a message with an annoyed emoji: “What if Shaoqing sees your wallpaper?!”
“Then I’ll change it.”
<+>
Ning Yuan had never felt awkward when spending time with his younger brother before.
However, things are a little different now.
Sitting on a single-seater sofa across from Ning Chu, the once talkative guy had now become unusually reserved. His gaze occasionally drifted toward his brother but would quickly lower as if he were guilty of something.
No— not his brother anymore—his sister.
Not just a sister, but a succubus.
He had accompanied her for the medical check-up at the hospital, so naturally, he learned about Ning Chu’s condition.
Reality was just too absurd!
So, if Ning Chu was a succubus, then their mother was probably one too…
Despite having already graduated from university, Ning Yuan’s worldview was being shattered like never before. He had barely come to terms with the fact that his brother had become a sister, and now, he had to accept that his sister was a succubus.
He had never realized that a succubus had been living right beside him since childhood.
Unable to contain his curiosity, Ning Yuan stole another glance at Ning Chu’s long legs, wrapped in black stockings.
Framed by the short skirt and the stockings, her already long and slender legs appeared even more perfect. But as her brother, he felt no inappropriate thoughts—only a faint sense of fear.
He was somewhat afraid of women…
His mother was fine since they had always lived together, but his sister… suddenly appearing out of nowhere made her feel completely unfamiliar to him.
“Brother, do you have a girlfriend?”
While chatting with Wen Yang on her phone, Ning Chu casually asked her brother.
“No.”
“You’re already twenty-three or twenty-four and still single?” She mumbled while looking down. “Want me to introduce someone to you? Do you like wolf girls? The kind that could punch you to death?”
“……”
She looked up at Ning Yuan, who remained silent.
Her brother was still the same—afraid of girls and unable to interact with them.
Even though her mother and brother in this parallel world had changed slightly, overall, they were still the familiar family she knew.
Suddenly, her phone rang. It was their mother urging them to come downstairs.
Ning Chu flipped over and shot toward the door at full speed. But she forgot she was wearing stockings. After just a few steps, her foot slipped, and she crashed straight to the ground.
“Hiss~”
Tears welled up in her eyes from the pain.
As a succubus, she was naturally more sensitive, making her even less able to endure pain. At moments like this, she almost wished her silver pattern hadn’t been completed, so the system’s pain-to-pleasure conversion bug was still active.
Feeling good would be better than feeling pain, right?
Still, she instinctively reached to tug down her skirt to avoid exposing herself.
A “Yosuga no Sora” scenario would be way too scary…
Ning Yuan was momentarily stunned. “Why are you so careless?”
He walked over to her and reached out a hand, subconsciously nagging, “You always panic when you’re in a hurry. You broke a bone three times as a kid and still haven’t learned your lesson.”
“Get up, you—”
The moment her soft, boneless hand touched his palm, Ning Yuan stopped talking. He looked down at her teary, pitiful face.
For the first time, he fully realized that his little brother had really become a girl.
Before, Ning Chu’s hands were never this delicate and soft. She also never cried just from falling down. Though she was never the strongest person, no matter how badly she was hurt—even when she broke a bone—she would always pretend to be fine in front of others, hiding away to cry in private.
“Are you okay?”
“Hiss~ I’m fine…”
Oh, she’s still as stubborn as ever.
He pulled Ning Chu up from the ground. Watching her stumble slightly as she stood, he frowned, already feeling a headache coming on.
With how much their mother doted on Ning Chu now, he was definitely going to get scolded for this.
Ning Chu winced and wiped away her tears, carefully checking her knees and arms. Though it hurt like hell, she was probably fine.
“Really, I’m okay!”
“Then stop saying that while crying,” Ning Yuan sighed, unable to stop himself from nagging. “I’ve told you so many times—wear slippers, wear slippers! The floor is always covered in footprints and easy to slip on. You already fell once in the bathroom while showering last time, but you never learn. Seriously, you—”
So annoying!
Why was her brother still such a chatterbox in this parallel world? Why did he love to nag so much?!
Wouldn’t it be nice if he had turned into a quiet and elegant succubus big sister instead?
Ning Chu wiped her tears with frustration, turning her head away in annoyance, letting his words go in one ear and out the other.
Still, compared to his earlier withdrawn and silent self, this version of her brother was much better.
She rubbed her eyes, carefully put on her slippers, and went to the bathroom to check the mirror. Her eyes were still slightly red, making her look pitiful.
She grabbed a towel and scrubbed her face hard, trying to erase any traces of having cried.
“Mom just called me again. Hurry up.”
“Okay~”
Ning Chu dragged out her response lifelessly and followed Ning Yuan out the door.
“What are we eating tonight?”
“Steak. Isn’t that your favorite?”
That was only because they were poor when she was a kid… Since she rarely got to eat it, of course, she liked it.
She didn’t bother explaining and just followed her brother into the elevator.
After a moment of silence, she cautiously asked, “Brother, how did our family suddenly get rich?”
Today’s shopping trip alone had cost around one or two thousand.
“Rich? Not really. I send home three thousand every month, and Mom doesn’t spend much when she’s home alone. She’s probably saved up quite a bit.”
“……”
So… the money I’ve been using to support a man all came from my brother?!
And his salary was only five or six thousand a month!
Ning Chu’s expression froze. Thinking about how she had already spent most of this month’s allowance, she felt even guiltier.
She hesitated before mumbling, “Maybe I should take a smaller allowance…”
“Mom originally said one thousand was enough, but I sent more since you’re in college. Back when I was in college, I only got one thousand, and even having food was a struggle.”
Ning Yuan sighed with frustration. “Now that you’re a girl, your expenses will only get higher.”
“……”
