Chapter 212 : Chapter 212
Chapter 212. Isn't This Kind of Play a Bit Too Advanced?
“T-That… so… how is it?”
Yi Ning pushed open the changing room door and walked out with a bashful, hesitant posture.
Lu Zheng was sitting casually in a nearby chair, one hand propping up his chin, his eyes half-closed with a faint, unreadable smile on his lips.
He slowly lifted his eyelids, letting his gaze sweep twice across Yi Ning’s body.
Feeling his completely unrestrained scrutiny, Yi Ning’s face flushed an even brighter shade of red.
The lingerie she wore made her feel intensely ashamed, but Lu Zheng’s serious, unwavering stare surprisingly filled her with a sliver of satisfaction.
“Y-You… have you looked enough!?”
But this kind of public exhibition play, standing around in suggestive clothing, was still a bit much for Yi Ning to endure.
She bent forward slightly, her hands covering her sensitive areas even more tightly.
“Don’t cover.”
Lu Zheng suddenly spoke.
Yi Ning: “?”
She turned her head and looked at Lu Zheng with shock, wondering if she’d misheard something.
“You’re not… joking, right?”
“Of course not.”
Lu Zheng curled his lips into a smirk and crooked his finger at her.
“Stand up straight, put your hands behind your back, and let me have a good look.”
Yi Ning’s eyes widened. Her pupils practically ignited with outrage.
But Lu Zheng’s expression didn’t change at all.
“You said it yourself—you wanted to wear it for your boyfriend to see, right?”
“So now I want to take a proper look at what it looks like on my girlfriend. Is there anything wrong with that?”
His eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice took on an unquestionable authority.
Yi Ning instinctively lowered her head. She was clearly intimidated.
This pressure from Lu Zheng—it was exactly the same as the times when he’d ruthlessly smashed her into the ceiling in the past, without the slightest hesitation.
She couldn’t even remember how long it had been since she’d seen Lu Zheng show this kind of attitude.
Well, she was already out here wearing this in front of him… So letting him see a bit more wouldn’t make much difference, would it?
That kind of self-persuasion started to form in her mind.
Yi Ning’s shoulders trembled. Her clenched fists, still covering herself, were so tight it seemed like she might crush her own hands.
Her reputation as a notorious villain spread from Evil University’s Science Villain Department to the Combat Villain Department. She was famous across the board. And now… she was about to present her nearly bare body for her arch-nemesis hero to enjoy—What a disgrace!
Yi Ning trembled as she slowly moved her hands behind her back and gradually straightened her posture.
She submitted.
Now, let’s make this clear: Just because Yi Ning complied doesn’t mean she’s some coward afraid of death.
As someone who had been beaten down countless times by her righteous rival, a little PTSD from a hero’s overwhelming aura was entirely reasonable.
So giving in to Lu Zheng’s demands, to avoid worsening her PTSD, was perfectly logical.
That’s right. Yi Ning is not a weakling.
And thus, our Miss Yi Ning now stood in nothing but string lingerie, hands clasped behind her back, cheeks burning red, allowing our righteous hero to appreciate her.
Not peep. Because Lu Zheng’s gaze was so bold, so open, that it was more accurate to say he was admiring her.
Moreover, the changing room door behind Yi Ning was a mirror—Allowing Lu Zheng to take in every angle, including her exposed back.
Lu Zheng rested his chin on his hand, eyes roaming from top to bottom over Yi Ning’s body, as if trying to burn this image into the depths of his memory.
To be honest, when he first saw the lingerie Yi Ning wore, Lu Zheng’s first reaction wasn’t an aroused one.
It was… pity.
With Yi Ning’s usual baggy clothes removed, her chest’s outline was fully revealed before his eyes—Flat. Completely flat. Not a curve to be found.
Even ocean-blue steel plates had more contour.
Perhaps it was this moment of pity that caused Lu Zheng’s gaze to linger on her chest a little too long.
Naturally, Yi Ning noticed that unfiltered, unapologetic stare.
He’d mocked her “steel plate” before—Now, looking at her like this… What else could it mean!?
Her blush deepened. Whether from anger or embarrassment was hard to say.
She opened her mouth to curse him: “I—”
But before she could finish, Lu Zheng raised a hand, cutting her off, and gave her a chilling warning:
“If you keep talking, I won’t be able to promise I’ll just look.”
Yi Ning: “……”
Frustrated, she let out a snort, turned her head away sharply, and settled for “out of sight, out of mind.”
Some time passed—how long, she wasn’t sure.
Yi Ning could barely stand it anymore.
They were still in a lingerie store, after all.
Sure, their position was a dead angle—neither the storefront nor the clerk at the counter could see them.
But that didn’t mean no one ever could.
If a new customer walked into the shop and took a turn toward their corner…
Or if a clerk thought the two had been inside the fitting room too long and came over to check…
Then her posture right now—hands behind her back, spine straight, nearly naked except for a string outfit—would be seen by others.
If that happened, Yi Ning would have no choice but to sneak around Lu Zheng and eliminate anyone who’d glimpsed her sacred dragon form.
This was a crisis.
Yet beneath all the shame and anxiety, Yi Ning somehow felt a strange thrill.
She had to be out of her mind to think it was okay to come out in something like this!
Yi Ning squeezed her eyes shut in despair.
But once one sense was suppressed, her other senses sharpened—The cool breeze brushing against her bare skin. The ticklish feeling of fabric grazing her body. And Lu Zheng’s gaze—aggressively invasive, like a tongue lapping across her skin…
She was just a TS (transformed girl) who’d only been a girl for less than a month, okay!?
Yi Ning’s blush grew even deeper. Her ears turned red under the heat of Lu Zheng’s stare.
She looked at him again, unable to suppress her growing urge to curse his whole family.
“You’re still staring, you—HEY! What the—!?”
But before she could get more than a few words out, a sudden jolt of discomfort surged from her body—Caused by the lingerie’s string shifting somewhere it really shouldn’t have.
Emergency!!!
Yi Ning stumbled backward in panic, bumping the changing room door open with her butt and diving back inside.
Bang!
She slammed the door shut with one hand.
This is insane! Absolutely nuts!
What was I even thinking!?
Why had she agreed to Lu Zheng’s completely unreasonable demand!?
And what the hell was that nice feeling at the end!?
Even if it was a dead angle…
Even if no one else saw…
What if a clerk took just a few steps in their direction!?
They’d see her doing exhibition play with Lu Zheng!!
And she was getting excited about it!?
Did this mean she was secretly a pervy exhibitionist girl!?
Yi Ning slumped against the door, both hands clutching her flaming red face, and slowly slid to the floor.
“Tch.”
The second her butt hit the tiles, she jumped up again.
The floor was cold.
It chilled her ass.
Flushed with shame, she hurriedly tore off the so-called lingerie and put her clothes back on in record time.
Whatever Lu Zheng wanted to do next, he could do it by himself!
She was done!
If he had the guts to go all the way and knock her up, then so be it!
Once they got back to Blue Star, after she gave birth, she’d show up every single day at the front gate of the Hero Association with her baby in her arms—crying!
Let’s see what Lu Zheng does then!
Don’t think she won’t go through with it!
