Chapter 250: Why Does a Girl’s Face Turn Red Like a Peach Blossom? Take a Guess!
Lin Yibai had just completed part of the nerve system upgrade related to being a girl.
Here’s a “useless” fun fact. Boys have about 4,000 sensory nerves for pleasure, while girls have around 8,000.
That’s why people say, “There are no bad fields, only tired bulls”, meaning girls are much more sensitive than boys.
How can 4,000 go against 8,000? Boys are at a disadvantage!
After Lin Yibai made her choice, she felt as if tiny ants were crawling all over her body.
“...So itchy!!”
But it wasn’t the kind of itch from a mosquito bite.
Wait, if it’s not from bugs...
She started realizing something. She didn’t expect that building nerve endings would cause such a strong reaction.
But then again, how else could she tell if the “happy” nerves were really working without feeling them herself?
"It should be fine now, right?"
She was trying to recall the intimate moments under the blankets with her boyfriend from a few weeks ago.
“Changyu! Mmm.”
[5000 words that cannot be written here.]
“Damn it!”
“Ugh!”
“Why didn’t it give me a warning first?!”
She gritted her teeth, how did things end up like this?
How to describe the feeling?
Imagine a 16-year-old boy watching an adult video and he explodes for the first time. That bursting, overwhelming feeling!
Even some strange liquid was coming out...
At first, Lin Yibai thought maybe the body transformation would be like in those fantasy novels, you’d go through a stage where your body pushes out “impurities,” then you’d reach a perfect state.
But reality?
She suddenly jumped up from the single-seat sofa. Then stared in horror at the wet spot on the cushion and asked herself.
"Ugh, why is it so soaked? I only did it once."
She took a small sniff.
"Seriously? It smells refreshing, like an ocean breeze? No, why am I thinking this?"
Panicking, Lin Yibai squeezed her pale legs together, grabbed a clean set of clothes from the closet, and rushed into the bathroom.
A moment later, the shower was running again.
What? You say she already took a shower earlier?
She’d tell you. Why ask so many questions? Is taking two showers so strange?
Some things you just don’t ask. Especially when it’s a girl’s matter.
Under the water, Lin Yibai finally managed to calm down a little.
This had never happened before. Now that her “girl nerves” were activated, it felt like a hidden switch had been flipped, bringing out the kind of responses her body should have.
There was just... so much ocean-breeze soda.
If Xia Changyu ever wanted a taste? He’d never finish it, it's unbelievably abundant!
Also, this seemed connected to the first option she picked earlier, the one that gave her “double pleasure.” Apparently, the effect was even stronger than expected.
How to explain it?
Okay, let’s use a silly example. People who’ve had athlete’s foot know, when it flares up, you really want to scratch it.
(She groaned: “Ugh, why am I using that as an example? I’m terrible!”)
Still...
“No way!!!”
She used all her willpower to resist the urge. Maybe this was karma, payback for how she used to think when she was still a guy.
Maybe it was a good idea to save her “first time” for someone she truly loved?
Maybe that kind of thinking is old-fashioned, but so what if it is? Can’t a person stick to their beliefs?
She took a deep breath and tried to focus. And just when she was finally calming down, her phone rang.
“Darn it, Xia Changyu! Why are you calling me now?!”
She didn’t need to look, she already knew. He must’ve just gotten home, calling to say he’s safe and maybe chat for a while.
She wrapped herself in a towel, rushed out of the bathroom, grabbed her phone and answered.
But when she spoke… her voice was still a little breathless.
Huff...
Huff huff…
Lin Yibai: “Hello~”
Xia Changyu had just sat down when he heard a strange, slightly breathless sound over the phone. The sound was soft and a little strange. His eyebrows raised as he said,
Xia Changyu: “I just got home.”
Lin Yibai: “Huff... mm~ I-I'm glad... you’re home, then.”
Xia Changyu’s eyebrows tightened in concern. He asked, “What are you doing over there?”
Lin Yibai: “I was just... running... I mean, I was doing a little indoor workout. Do you believe me?”
Xia Changyu: “Of course I believe you.”
“Mmm~ ahh...”
Xia Changyu: “Baiyi, are you sure... nothing’s wrong?”
At this point, Lin Yibai was doing her best to hold herself together. She gritted her teeth and said,
“If you hadn’t called me, then I think I’d be just fine! But now... huff huff... never mind. You probably already think something’s wrong with me, right?”
Come on, who wouldn’t think something was wrong? She was clearly out of breath just from a phone call!
It had nothing to do with trust anymore. Lin Yibai asked him to switch the call to video mode.
Soon, they could see each other on the screen.
Xia Changyu was drinking water. Lin Yibai had a slightly red face. One hand was tightly holding her towel, and the other was holding the phone.
Lin Yibai: “So? What do you think?”
She clearly wasn’t doing anything bad, but Xia Changyu could tell something unusual was going on. Otherwise, why would her face be so red?
As he looked at her suspiciously, Lin Yibai took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, calmed herself down, and said, “As you can see, I was just taking a shower in the bathroom.”
Xia Changyu suddenly understood and slapped his leg.
Xia Changyu: “Oh! A shower! Then now I get it!”
Lin Yibai: “Get what?”
Xia Changyu: “I heard that girls like to use really hot water when they shower. So your red face... must be from the hot water, right?”
Lin Yibai gritted her teeth, held it in, and yelled, “So you don’t get it at all!”
Xia Changyu: “Then what’s really going on? Just tell me!”
Tell him? Tell him that she was feeling extremely uncomfortable and wanted help?
Actually, if Xia Changyu did come over right now, maybe he really would benefit from it. Because Lin Yibai’s situation wasn’t great.
She crossed her left leg over her right, then switched right over left, again and again. She was clearly uneasy, though it helped her feel just a little bit better.
She sighed and looked into the video call. She believed there was no need for secrets, as she had always viewed their relationship with great seriousness, where openness was important.
Lin Yibai: “What else could it be? Girls also have certain physical needs, okay? And right when I was in the bathroom… you just happened to call me. Now do you understand? You dummy.”
Now he really understood.
And it made him appreciate Lin Yibai even more. Sure, the reason might be a bit embarrassing. But because she said it clearly, there was no room for any silly misunderstandings like in soap operas.
But...
Xia Changyu started walking around in his room. He looked very troubled and deep in thought.
He couldn’t decide what to do. Finally, he gave in to his feelings and sent Lin Yibai a message, “Do you... need any help?”
“Get lost!”
Those two words, “Get lost”, said everything!
Lin Yibai was definitely going to have a tough night. But this was just one of the many difficulties of becoming a girl.
Her newly rebuilt nerves were slowly calming down again.
She was actually grateful. Her system was decent and respectful.
She looked at herself and said with confidence, “Now, I can respond to the one I love. But I won’t lose control.”
Being able to respond only to someone you have feelings for, that’s a normal thing for a girl.
And as the first sunlight of morning shone in, her face looked as soft and beautiful as a peach blossom.
