Chapter 153: Isn’t It Normal for a Girl to Wear Boxers Made for Guys?
Movies… they can feel really long~
But also really short~
The two of them had different feelings. Lin Yibai felt like what they were doing wasn’t very proper… but she still went along with it.
Xia Changyu, on the other hand, was very excited. He could smell her sweet scent, feel her warmth, and the softness of her body.
His voice trembled a little as he quietly asked, “Don’t we feel a bit like a newlywed couple right now?”
Lin Yibai replied, “Wow, you sure have guts to say that.”
Xia Changyu took a deep breath and argued, “Why wouldn’t I dare to say it? I like you, so I should say it out loud! Otherwise, how would you ever know I like you?”
Lin Yibai went quiet. After a while, she said, “I’m done talking to you.”
She turned her phone face-down on the table and lifted up the thin air-conditioned blanket.
She really couldn’t talk to a guy who openly liked her. Not even a little.
They had planned to watch two movies, but the situation felt too awkward now. So after finishing just one, Lin Yibai started cleaning up and got ready for bed.
“Good night.”
Xia Changyu replied, “If you’re scared to sleep alone, maybe you could…”
Before he could finish, Lin Yibai interrupted, “Could what? Ask you to sleep with me? You wish! You sure came up with that plan quickly. Hmph!”
She let out a cold “hmph” and walked into the guest room.
Xia Changyu could only smile bitterly and sat on the sofa, deep in thought.
But let’s be real, young people don’t sleep that early. He picked up his phone and scrolled through some dating tips. Feeling satisfied, he got up and went to the bathroom.
He brushed his teeth, washed his face.
Then took a shower.
After turning off the shower and wrapping a towel around his waist, he opened the bathroom door to let the steam out.
That’s when he noticed something strange. A blue trash bag in the corner of the bathroom. It looked like it had been placed there on purpose, in a spot not easily seen.
“Huh? That’s odd.” Xia Changyu was confused. “I always throw out the trash before I leave the house. So why is this still here?”
He gave it a little kick, it felt soft.
In that moment, a thought popped into his mind.
“Could that be the clothes Lin Baiyi changed out of after getting wet earlier?”
She seemed like the type who was frugal and a bit shy. She probably didn’t want to throw the clothes away and instead packed them neatly in a bag, planning to take them home tomorrow.
Xia Changyu poked the bag again.
And then… a crazy idea crept into his head. “What’s inside?”
Honestly, he already knew. It was Lin Yibai’s wet clothes. What else could it be?
But still, he couldn’t help it. A small, naughty thought started growing.
He looked around. No one was there.
Quietly, he opened a corner of the bag, and saw a woman’s shirt inside.
It was like Pandora’s box. Once he opened it, he wanted to see more. What else is under the shirt?
To be honest, he told himself, “This is probably not okay, right?”
Even Xia Changyu felt like he was acting like a pervert.
But still, he couldn’t fight the strong urge, the dark little curiosity inside him.
Just one look. One look won’t hurt, right?
He kept digging through the clothes and saw two white shoulder straps, with cups attached to them...
“Whoa! What the—?! Ugh!! I’m such a pervert.” Xia Changyu’s breathing got faster. After all, he was still a virgin… please try to understand.
He took a deep breath. There was a pleasant, sweet fragrance. Xia Changyu couldn’t even tell anymore, was it from laundry detergent or her own scent?
Should he keep going?
Probably already gone too far!
But… why couldn’t he stop his own stupid hands?!
Then he pulled out a pair of square-shaped underwear and his smile slowly disappeared.
Wait a minute… this doesn’t look like safety shorts!
This really looked like… a pair of men’s boxer briefs?
What is going on here?!
Xia Changyu started to feel weird.
He thought back to the feeling he had earlier when her knee touched him, but all his doubts completely vanished when Lin Yibai walked out of the bathroom in tight yoga shorts.
He could swear on his chest 100% confidently.
She’s a girl. Baiyi is definitely, definitely a real girl. Even the way those shorts hugged her figure, completely perfect. Totally a girl!
Now, Detective Xia Changyu was on the case.
Since he had already seen her in those shorts, he no longer questioned her gender. Instead, he started wondering why she was wearing men’s boxer shorts in the first place.
Because… that’s not a great sign.
It’s said that girls in love, or girls who are starting to fall in love, always dress up cutely, sometimes wearing the skimpiest things they can.
But girls who have no interest in love, or are already past the honeymoon phase, are the ones who wear stuff like boxer shorts.
And this pair even had two little holes in it.
At this point, Xia Changyu slapped his thigh and said in shock.
“Oh no, don’t tell me she’s the cold and unfeeling type? The kind of girl that’s super hard to move emotionally?”
Actually it wasn’t anything deep.
From Lin Yibai's perspective...
No one can see it anyway. If someone does see it, she’ll just say it’s safety shorts. So why bother buying girly underwear at all?
And honestly… who would go looking through someone’s underwear like this? No way, right?
...Right?
Would someone really go through another person’s underwear?
Back to Xia Changyu.
Most guys don’t even notice what kind of underwear girls wear underneath. And instead of playing detective for so long, why not just take her to buy some cute ones instead?
Lace ones. Ribbon ones. The less fabric, the better?
Xia Changyu now had a serious expression on his face. He made up his mind.
“To change Baiyi’s heart, I’ll start by changing how she dresses. I’ll gift her some cute underwear first. Maybe lace, or strappy ones, with as little fabric as possible?”
We don’t know if Lin Yibai would like that kind of stuff. But we do know Xia Changyu definitely would.
And as always, people don’t feel the same things at the same time.
Meanwhile, Lin Yibai quietly stepped out of her room to get some water. She was careful not to make noise, worried her annoying love rival might suddenly say something cheesy again.
Then, she noticed something strange in the slightly open bathroom.
“What... is he doing?”
She was completely shocked.
Her black men’s boxer shorts were in that guy’s hands. Not just being looked at, he was playing with them.
And his eyebrows were furrowed like he was trying to analyze something.
Those were the shorts she wore when she still had a male body!
What… exactly are you trying to do, looking at them like that?!
Stop!
Don’t smell them!
They must smell bad by now!
Wait! Why did his face look like…
He was enjoying it?!
