Oh no! My yandere school beauty is so clingy!

After taking a shower, drying herself off, and changing into clean clothes, Shen Yu opened the bathroom door and went out.

With only a small light on in the living room, Lin Anran nestled in a corner of the sofa, her body sinking into the soft cushions.

She was wearing a pair of light gray lounge shorts, with wide legs that only reached mid-thigh, revealing a pair of long, straight legs.

Under the warm yellow light, her skin was dazzlingly white, like the finest mutton fat jade.

At this moment, her legs were casually crossed, one foot resting on the ankle of the other, and her feet were covered with clean white cotton socks, the socks just reaching above her ankles, wrapping around her slender joints.

She was holding a cushion in her arms, resting her chin on it, and holding a remote control in her hand, casually pressing buttons on the TV.

Hearing the door open, she immediately looked up, her eyes lit up for a moment, then quickly looked away, her face slightly flushed.

Her voice was soft: "Are you done washing?"

"Hmm." Shen Yu responded, walked to the other side of the sofa, sat down, picked up the water glass on the coffee table, and took a big gulp.

After pouring cold water down my throat, the inexplicable restlessness in my heart subsided a little.

Seeing Shen Yu take a sip of water, Lin Anran pursed her lips, as if she was suppressing a laugh...

Shen Yu caught a glimpse of her out of the corner of his eye, then looked down at his water glass...

"Have you had a drink?"

In an instant, Shen Yu seemed to have solved the case: Could she have drunk water from her own cup while she was showering...?

Lin Anran quickly turned her head away, but her ears secretly turned red...

"Wh...what?! I don't know what you're talking about..."

This kind of explanation seems to be no different from an admission...

Shen Yu didn't care about Lin Anran's little tricks. He chuckled, took another sip, and then put down the water glass.

"Alright, go take a shower, it's getting late."

"Okay~"

Lin Anran got up from the sofa and walked quickly towards the bathroom. Her long, white legs, dazzling under the light, disappeared behind the bathroom door in a flash.

With a soft "click," the door closed.

Shen Yu leaned back on the sofa, listening to the rustling sounds of clothes being taken off coming from inside the door, followed by the sound of water dripping.

He withdrew his gaze from the bathroom door and casually picked up a book from the coffee table.

After watching for a while, his gaze involuntarily drifted back to the bathroom door.

Time passed by, and the sound of water in the bathroom never stopped.

After about ten minutes, or maybe longer, the sound of water seemed to have subsided.

Just then, Lin Anran's voice came from the bathroom, muffled by the door and the sound of water:

"Shen Yu~"

Shen Yu paused in his book-flipping motion and looked up toward the bathroom door.

"What's wrong?"

There was a two-second silence in the bathroom, then Lin Anran's voice rang out again, slightly clearer than before, with a slight upward inflection at the end, carrying a hint of self-righteous coquettishness:

"Could you help me apply some shower gel to my back?"

really...

Shen Yu had already anticipated this; Lin Anran's offer of help was indeed about this matter...

He's probably trying to play a trick on himself again...

Shen Yu first took a deep breath through her nose, then inhaled briefly, and then exhaled slowly and evenly through her mouth...

Quickly lower your heart rate, stabilize your blood pressure, and put yourself in a particularly calm state.

"Oh, here it comes."

Shen Yu agreed, stood up, and walked towards the bathroom.

He stopped in front of the frosted glass door, but instead of pushing it open immediately, he raised his hand, bent his knuckles, and gently knocked on the door.

"Thump, thump..."

The sound of water inside seemed to have completely stopped.

"Are you...ready? I'm going in."

There was a two-second silence inside, then Lin Anran's voice rang out, even softer than before...

"Okay...come in."

Shen Yu's fingertips twitched slightly, then he grasped the cold doorknob, gently turned it, and pushed the door open.

The bathroom was steamier than I had imagined. The warm white light was blurred by the mist, and the air was filled with the fresh scent of shower gel and the damp heat.

Lin Anran stood with her back to the door on the non-slip mat in the shower area, a light beige towel wrapped around her lower body, barely covering her mid-thighs.

Her upper body was loosely wrapped in a towel around her shoulders, revealing only her smooth back and well-defined shoulder blades.

Her long, wet black hair was swept to one side of her shoulder, making her neck appear even more slender.

Despite being mentally prepared, Shen Yu's breath still faltered for a moment.

He closed his eyes briefly to suppress the turmoil in his heart, and when he opened them again, his gaze had returned to calm.

Lin Anran seemed to sense his approach, her body tensed up noticeably, she turned her head slightly and glanced at him quickly out of the corner of her eye, then immediately turned back, her cheeks and ear tips turning bright red.

Her arms were gently wrapped around her chest, which made her waist appear even more slender.

"It is... a bit cold..." she said softly, her tone revealing an undisguised embarrassment.

"I'll hurry." Shen Yu squeezed some shower gel into his palm, raised his hand, and hovered it above her back.

Lin Anran's shoulders hunched slightly inward, and her arms, which were wrapped around her chest, tightened even more.

Without further hesitation, he gently placed his palm on the area below her shoulder blade.

"Hmm..." A very soft groan escaped Lin Anran's throat, and her body trembled slightly as if she had been electrocuted.

The skin beneath my palms was delicate and warm, carrying the warmth of having just been washed with hot water.

Shen Yu paused for a moment, then slowly moved her hand, gently applying the ointment only to the upper part that she couldn't reach herself.

"Phew~"

Lin Anran's breathing gradually became erratic, turning somewhat rapid, and a blush spread down her neck...

She even had to hold onto the wall in front of her to stop her legs from trembling so noticeably...

The first time... someone touched my back...

The thought of Shen Yu right behind her made her lose control of her body...

What would happen if I suddenly turned around and hugged Shen Yu now?

Shen Yu will be unhappy, won't he...?

This idea remained just a thought in her mind; she was still too afraid to put it into action...

She was afraid that Shen Yu might feel uncomfortable or dislike it...

Shen Yu slowly opened his mouth, wanting to say something to ease the awkwardness:

"You hid the back rub, didn't you?"

Lin Anran's body trembled slightly under his hand, and then she spoke in a very soft, hesitant voice:

"I'm...I'm sorry."

She admitted it.

The voice was so low it was almost inaudible.

After a few seconds, Shen Yu gently shook his head:

"fine."

"You just want to have more contact with me, that's normal."

"I...I didn't say it wasn't allowed."
