Deviant: No Longer Human

Chapter 28: Luring Fu Yuxin (3)

28th December, Thursday, 2023.

A ripple of excitement swept through the classroom during the free hour, conversations and laughter filling the air like a lively orchestra. The latest piece of news, fresh and electrifying, had become the topic du jour.

"Hey, have you heard about the news?"

"What news?"

The question hung like a suspended note, waiting to be harmonized by the impending revelation.

"They are closing the schools all over Shanghai!"

"What!? No more tests then?"

"Apparently, it seems as such. The Shanghai government has issued an advisory to close all the running schools immediately due to the increasing cold."

The crescendo peaked, a collective gasp sweeping through the classroom, the anticipation and excitement building to a grand finale.

Amidst this orchestrated commotion, one figure sat still, her gaze locked downward, her fingers engaged in a quiet, thoughtful rhythm on her phone. In this cacophony of reactions, she seemed to compose her own internal melody, each tap of her fingers weaving a story of contemplation and reflection.

"Hey, Xinxin!"

"Huh?"

The sharp call of her friend pierced through Fu Yuxin's engrossing digital conversation, dragging her back from the captivating realm she had found online.

"Xinxin, didn't you hear the teacher? School's out!"

"Finally!"

"Yay!"

Excitement bubbled around her as her friends rallied, the news spreading like wildfire through the classroom, carried by an eager homeroom teacher.

A faint smile graced Fu Yuxin's lips as she shared in the collective jubilation, momentarily partaking in the joyous atmosphere before her thoughts drifted back to her phone.

As the night veiled the city, she found herself engrossed in conversation, the virtual connection seemingly transcending the confines of time and space.

Wang Xiao, too, was taken aback by the girl's unflagging enthusiasm. It sparked a flicker of intrigue, making him contemplate if she might be easier to lure than he had anticipated.

"Take off your clothes," he suddenly commanded, his voice cutting through the room like a sudden gust of wind.

"Huh?"

Wang Mei, who had been peacefully dozing off, curled up next to him, was jolted awake by his startling request.

She blinked in confusion and regarded him with a mixture of surprise and bewilderment.

Why on earth was he asking her to disrobe?

Her mind raced with questions and doubts, a hint of nervousness creeping in.

Could he be planning to record this moment?

"What are you waiting for? Take off your clothes. It's too cold like this," before she could voice her concerns, Wang Xiao repeated his demand, his own actions already setting the course.

He swiftly shed the garments that covered his torso, casting them aside with a nonchalant gesture, leaving no room for ambiguity.

However, when he noticed the blush creeping across Wang Mei's face, he couldn't help but seize the opportunity to play a mischievous trick.

He swiftly shed the remainder of his clothes, tossing them aside with a devilish grin, all while slyly starting to undress Wang Mei.

Her embarrassment and confusion were palpable as she struggled to comprehend his sudden actions. Did she misunderstand him? Was it simply about combating the cold?

In the end, Wang Xiao chuckled, realizing her innocent misinterpretation.

He extended his arms, enveloping the now unclothed Wang Mei, drawing her close and keeping her face nestled against his chest to spare her any more embarrassment.

As he continued typing and chatting with Fu Yuxin, he made a decision to expedite their conversation, intending to bring it to a close the following day.

Chuan Hao: Hey, do you like jewelry?

Fu Yuxin playfully shot back: Who doesn't like jewelry? Planning to get me some?

Chuan Hao: Not really. I just happened to notice you gazing at them yesterday.

Fu Yuxin's intrigue deepened: ... You saw me yesterday?

Chuan Hao: Yes, outside the jewelry shop.

Fu Yuxin fell into a stunned silence.

Chuan Hao: What's the matter? Surprised?

Fu Yuxin finally managed to respond, her words carrying a hint of caution: Who are you?

Chuan Hao: A secret. Meet me outside the Disney resort tomorrow if you want to find out.

In an abrupt turn, Fu Yuxin's status flickered to offline.

Wang Xiao furrowed his brow, his eyes glued to the phone for a few moments, contemplating the abrupt turn of events.

With a decisive motion, he locked the device and tossed it nearby.

He might have rushed things.

Sighing deeply, Wang Xiao realized he needed to reevaluate his approach from the very start.

His attention then shifted to Wang Mei, who still struggled to find sleep, her breathing slightly labored.

The chill of the night was evident, prompting them to huddle beneath a blanket for warmth.

Without much thought, Wang Xiao gently turned Wang Mei over, embracing her closely and placing tender kisses on her lips, seeking the solace of her warmth.

At first, Wang Mei resisted, grappling with the sudden turn of events.

But the biting cold outside made her relent, allowing Wang Xiao to utilize her body's warmth as a natural heater for the night.

As the night progressed, Wang Mei gradually grew accustomed to the cozy embrace, and fatigue eventually took over.

She drifted off to sleep, despite a persistent discomfort that kept pricking between her her legs.

29th December, Saturday, 2023.

The morning unfurled, its arrival marked by a mysterious mist enveloping the windows of the villa. Wang Xiao awoke, stretching his hand beside him to find an empty space. A gentle smile curved his lips, evolving into a soft chuckle of amusement.

It seemed Wang Mei had risen early and vanished like a wisp of morning fog.

Shaking his head in good-humored bewilderment, he braved the cold air, pulling away from the warm embrace of the blanket.

His gaze then fell upon his phone, resting atop the mattress. Intrigued, he reached for it and unlocked the screen to read the latest notification.

Fu Yuxin: Alright, 11:00 am, don't be late!

The long-awaited reply from Fu Yuxin finally flashed on his screen, causing Wang Xiao's eyes to narrow in intrigue before bursting into spontaneous laughter.

So, it appeared that Fu Yuxin had been merely too bashful to respond promptly to his unexpected date invitation. How could he have overlooked such a simple explanation?

Perhaps the lack of sleep had momentarily dulled his usually sharp mind.

Buoyed by a newfound sense of enthusiasm, Wang Xiao began the meticulous process of selecting the ideal outfit for the day.

He also pondered the best way to handle Fu Yuxin's inevitable surprise when she realized it was him, not Chuan Hao, waiting for her today.
