“Nangong Ruihui, seriously? Is that necessary?” Mu Yao glared at the laughing Nangong Ruihui with a resentful look. She was showing him absolutely no respect.
“Okay, okay, Elder Sister. I won’t say anything~” Nangong Ruihui quickly cut off her laughter. Whenever Mu Yao called her by her full name, it usually meant she’d truly gotten on his bad side.
Once Nangong Ruihui stopped teasing him, Mu Yao let the matter go. Ever since he became the Elder Sister, his treatment had improved by several levels.
Class 1-C, led by Nangong Ruihui, practically worshiped him.
There were countless examples. Every time class ended and Mu Yao wanted to leave, they’d always let him go first. Whenever there was dirty or tiring work, the boys would fight to do it, afraid that their enthusiastic Elder Sister might help them. Even when he went out for a walk, at least four or five girls would follow him.
Mu Yao had considered telling everyone to stop, but Nangong Ruihui advised him not to. If he stopped letting them look after him, they’d suffer terribly. They’d think the Elder Sister disliked them and that they were useless.
“Ruihui, it’s fine when other people call me Elder Sister, but you should just use my name. Otherwise, I won’t be able to get used to it.”
Mu Yao tugged lightly at Nangong Ruihui’s sleeve as he pleaded.
“Yao-Yao~”
Nangong Ruihui felt even more certain that she hadn’t misjudged Mu Yao. She hadn’t been wrong from the beginning.
Even after becoming the Elder Sister, he hadn’t changed much. He didn’t have even a hint of that “I alone rule the world” attitude.
Both of them agreed to maintain a certain distance from each other in private. In Nangong Ruihui’s words, it was called a platonic relationship.
They were lovers who didn’t even do anything when they slept together!
Mu Yao had drunk too much water that morning, and he was starting to need the bathroom.
“Ruihui, I’m going to the restroom.”
“Why are you telling me that? Are you hoping I’ll go with you?”
Nangong Ruihui mischievously took Mu Yao’s hand. It looked almost like some kind of suggestive signal, much like Patriarch Bodhi enlightening Sun Wukong.
Of course, she didn’t rap him on the head.
Mu Yao had only said it casually. He hadn’t intended to go to the bathroom with his “best friend.”
He hadn’t expected Nangong Ruihui to make such a big deal out of it. Were teenage boys really spending two-thirds of every day thinking about H-stuff?
“Fine. We’ll go together. It’s not like we’ll go in together.”
Mu Yao was sure Nangong Ruihui wouldn’t find a chance to tease him.
In his current state, he could only use the girls’ restroom. He usually dealt with such problems back in the dorm. Entering the girls’ restroom while girls were inside felt like being a pervert.
The last time, he’d finally waited until everyone left—only for the class bell to ring. He’d ended up holding it for an entire lesson.
There were still two classes before lunch break, and Mu Yao really couldn’t take it anymore. This time, he was going in even if someone was inside.
The girls’ restroom had stalls, after all. He wasn’t some perverted peeping tom.
“What’s so great about that? I’m going with you.”
Nangong Ruihui felt as if countless claws were scratching at her heart. She almost wished she could change into a girl’s uniform and follow Mu Yao into the girls’ restroom openly, just to see how he’d react.
“Go ahead, then. If you’ve got the guts, come in.”
…
One minute later.
‘Damn it! Why are people constantly coming and going?’
Nangong Ruihui’s brows were practically twisted into a knot. She was deeply unwilling to give up.
“Bye-bye, President Nangong~”
Mu Yao openly left Nangong Ruihui behind and walked inside. His smug, gleeful expression made Nangong Ruihui burn with rage.
This was so frustrating!
Nangong Ruihui was the academy’s student council president. If anyone saw her entering the girls’ restroom, it would surely lead to doubts and angry accusations.
For the first time, Mu Yao felt that he had used his intelligence to turn the tables. He was indescribably pleased.
“Hmph. Then don’t come back out.”
Nangong Ruihui stood outside and waited for him like a hunter waiting beside a tree for a rabbit. When Mu Yao came out, she absolutely had to teach him a lesson.
Being the Elder Sister wasn’t a magic charm that kept him from being bullied!
Inside the girls’ restroom, Mu Yao had barely entered when he ran into a girl from the neighboring class.
She had just stepped out of a stall, and the motion of pulling up her zipper was painfully conspicuous.
Worse still, she recognized him at once.
“Elder Sister? It’s the Elder Sister!”
The girl was ecstatic. She never thought she’d run into the Elder Sister while changing her sanitary pad during break.
“Y-you… hello…”
Mu Yao instinctively looked upward. He was probably the first boy in the world to greet an unfamiliar classmate inside a girls’ restroom.
“So cute…”
The girl from the neighboring class had seen Mu Yao’s pictures on the forum before.
His bright, lively eyes and tiny mouth looked so cute they seemed almost unreal. She’d assumed the photos had been edited.
Now, it seemed that saying Mu Yao photographed well was completely wrong.
After comparing the pictures with the real person, she realized he actually photographed terribly!
The real Mu Yao was at least ten times cuter than the photos. Saying “ten times” was probably still an understatement.
“Mm…”
Mu Yao’s thighs had already started trembling. He was so nervous that he felt like he was dying.
Fortunately, the loose skirt concealed some of his strange reaction. Otherwise, the girl would have noticed immediately.
His face kept turning red, then pale.
…
After finally finishing, Mu Yao washed his hands and prepared to leave.
That was when Nangong Ruihui, who had been waiting for him, blocked the way.
“You—you want what? I’m warning you, I’ll scream…”
“Go ahead. I haven’t even touched you. Even if someone comes, they’ll only turn around and leave.”
Nangong Ruihui wore height-boosting shoes, and her absolute height advantage completely overwhelmed Mu Yao.
She braced her right arm against the wall above his head. The pose looked exactly like an overbearing CEO cornering his not-yet-wed little bride.
“You…! Shameless!”
Mu Yao turned his head away. He didn’t want to meet Nangong Ruihui’s aggressively piercing gaze.
He wouldn’t be able to handle it.
“Me? Shameless?” Nangong Ruihui gave him a cold smile. “Looks like my Yao-Yao has already started thinking about shameless things~”
“Who’s your Yao-Yao?”
“You’re pretending not to understand. You’re not only my fiancée, but also my official girlfriend. If you’re not my Yao-Yao, then whose Yao-Yao are you?”
“I can’t win against you.”
A few words left Mu Yao speechless. Nangong Ruihui wasn’t wrong, and he couldn’t argue back.
Even though he knew a same-sex engagement couldn’t really count, he couldn’t say that out loud. For now, he couldn’t reveal his gender.
“That’s because I’m the one with reason on my side. Otherwise, why couldn’t you argue with me?” Nangong Ruihui tried to convince him through sheer righteousness.
“Now that you’re out, you should be prepared for me to toy with you. Weren’t you acting so mighty when you went in?”
“How are you planning to toy with me…”
Mu Yao regretted the words the moment they left his mouth.
Didn’t that sound like he was offering himself up?
He was doomed. Whenever Nangong Ruihui gained the upper hand in sheer presence, he lost all sense of caution.
He hadn’t agreed to anything at all. He just wanted Nangong Ruihui to leave as soon as possible!
He really wanted to slap himself.
If he had a time machine, he’d never give up the advantage of being the Elder Sister—the one thing that kept Nangong Ruihui from daring to touch him.
Letting Nangong Ruihui call him by his name meant giving up the Elder Sister’s power in public.
This was awful.
“Oh? Yao-Yao’s really looking forward to it, huh~” Nangong Ruihui smiled. “Today, I’ll show you just how capable your husband is.”
Nangong Ruihui reached one hand into her pocket and began searching for something.
Mu Yao’s heart went into turmoil.
This was out in public!
Could she possibly be looking for some kind of indecent adult toy?
Oh, no…
At last, Nangong Ruihui pulled out a pink, rod-shaped object.
Mu Yao couldn’t help swallowing.
