Chapter 31: A Misunderstood Mess and a Dreamy Detention
“…”
Luo Su stared resentfully at the ended call screen, her tail drooping listlessly. A sinking feeling hit—her days as “Luo Su” were about to get way tougher.
“No way!”
This misunderstanding had to be cleared up fast.
Otherwise, she’d be on edge every class… wait! Class~ Luo Su blinked, her tail perking excitedly.
“Hehe~”
A devilish grin spread, fingers tapping her chin. To explain… why not have some fun?
“Hihi~”
Humming, she stuffed the textbook into her bag, tail wagging rhythmically. Tonight’s plan was set—
First this… then that…
Done!
But now what? She’d only… napped a bit, and now it was dark.
Autumn was unreasonable.
One moment blue skies, the next stormy rain… like now, clearly autumn rain’s prelude.
Luo Su rubbed her belly.
“Gulp… kinda hungry.”
Reading was exhausting, even in dreams. Or maybe… lunch was all popcorn!
“Today’s earnings…”
She checked her balance, pride vanishing. “Gulp… instant noodles it is.”
“Phew… tough succubus life.”
Luo Su grabbed noodles from the corner store, eagerly sitting on a stool, waiting for water to boil.
No lid on her bowl…
But waiting a bit, stirring with chopsticks, it’d cook—tastier too!
“Mhm…”
Watching the steaming kettle, she poured hot water into the bowl, recalling a joke…
[Can you conquer ancient emperors with instant noodles?]
[1F: Of course! No one resists noodles!]
[12F: Heh… you’d be beheaded opening the flavor packet~]
“But…”
Slurping noodles, she grinned. “Instant noodles conquered the world’s only succubus!”
Hundreds of emperors…
None as rare as her, right? Hmph, her tail nearly hit the sky—
Forgetting
She ate noodles because she was broke. But if she remembered, she wouldn’t care!
She was always optimistic.
Could anything be worse than being a succubus in the human world?
Her phone buzzed—
[BigGenius: So!]
[BigGenius: My assist was epic, right?]
[BigGenius: Sacrificed big for my bro’s happiness!]
Luo Su: “…”
Heh, if not for her quick thinking, this “genius” would’ve doomed her! And he dares claim credit!
“Pissed off!”
Luo Su clenched her fists, deciding—if she got the chance, Gao Ye’s getting a dream Chinese class!
Anyone who annoys her!
Hmph, off to Teacher Xu’s dream class!
After a month, she’d found her deadliest succubus skill!
“Hehe…”
Calming down, she even felt eager, but scolding was still needed:
[HohoHaha: Heh!]
[BigGenius: ?]
Gao Ye, on his couch, blinked innocently, glancing at the dark sky. “So… Luo Su failed?”
Pfft… so lame!
His assist was perfect, and still no go? Next time, he’d direct in person—Jiang Ning even brought her “parent”!
…
Late night, the rental’s curtains swayed in the breeze.
Luo Su hugged her pillow, rolling on the bed. After napping all afternoon, she was, predictably, sleepless—unheard of before.
She stared out the window.
Her rental in Pingchang’s old district was dim but noisy, making her restless.
“Can’t sleep…”
“Totally can’t sleep!”
She buried her face in the pillow, wailing.
No sleep, no dreams; no dreams, no clearing the “Luo Su didn’t bully Su Xi” mix-up…
If she didn’t…
Jiang Ning would “teach” her in daylight!
“Aaah!”
She wanted to time-travel and smack her smug self—what a succubus-failing move!
“One little Hulu…”
“Two big Hulus… three dumb Hulus…”
Grumbling aside,
She counted her fat cat obediently. Long night—what, do homework?
Her tail flicked disdainfully.
After who-knows-how-long—
“W-wah!” Luo Su jolted, finally asleep! Her tail curled into a heart shape.
“Jiang Ning…”
She nuzzled happily. “Get up! Time for school… cough, I’m here!”
[Almost… slipped up,]
[Close call!]
“…”
Jiang Ning opened her eyes, seeing Jiang Cha absent, nodding smugly. Hmph, the kid liked her more!
“Okay~” She ruffled Luo Su’s head.
Already planning
Tonight’s fun—no, wait, the jerk Luo Su! She remembered—Su Xi cried hard at noon!
“Hmph, why did Luo Su bully you?”
“Jealous I bought you clothes and he didn’t?!”
“Or does he need a lesson!”
Jiang Ning fumed inwardly but kept her tone gentle, firing off three questions.
“Ugh…”
Luo Su lowered her head, fingers poking shyly, voice soft. “It’s… complicated. Can I show you?”
As she spoke,
Her tail wagged happily, not looking bullied at all.
Jiang Ning nodded hesitantly.
Su Xi definitely cried at noon!
“Hmph…”
“So obedient and kinda dumb… must’ve been tricked by Luo Su with some toy!” Jiang Ning thought slyly.
So, she called Jiang Cha…
More people, more safety, missing Luo Su stifling giggles, clutching her belly.
“Gulp…”
“Tutoring’s pricey, but I’m free…” Not all bad for them—sleep passes time, so do something meaningful!
“Hmph…”
Thinking this, Luo Su bounced, leading them to the teaching building. At the classroom door, she switched to a pitiful face, pointing inside. “Got bullied here…”
Jiang Ning: “???”
Jiang Cha: “…”
Confused, they shrugged and entered… instantly, Teacher Xu’s voice rang. “Late? Stand at the back!”
“Hahaha.”
Luo Su couldn’t hold it, laughing till she trembled, tail forgotten, collapsing on the floor.
