“Xiyu? Xiyu, are you even listening to me?”
“Huh?”
When Xia Xi came back to his senses, he was already inside Leng Xiyu’s body.
Looking around, it was indeed the living room of his own home.
“Ugh, I know you’re worried, but my brother isn’t the kind of guy who chases after women. With him pretending to be your boyfriend, you can relax.”
Seeing Leng Xiyu spacing out, Xia Yue sighed helplessly.
He had no idea how terrifying that person named Du Xiyan must be, to have scared her usually unflappable roommate to this extent.
She was probably already on the verge of a nervous breakdown—zoning out even in the middle of a conversation.
“Yeah, yeah.”
Xia Xi nodded in agreement.
What his little sister said was exactly what he liked to hear. He, Xia Xi, was a devoted and faithful good man—definitely not some womanizer!
But still… just thinking about having to pretend to be a couple with “Xia Xi,” who was actually Luo Xinyu in disguise, gave him a headache.
What kind of mess was this?
Back in Jingcheng, he and Luo Xinyu had swapped bodies, which basically meant he was playing the role of the “girlfriend.”
Now, in a different body, he was still the one playing the “girlfriend.”
He was a tough guy at heart! Always playing the delicate little girl—how undignified!
No. Anyway, it would just be him and Luo Xinyu alone together. At worst, when they were alone, he’d act more dominant and firmly seize the upper hand.
Heh heh, a mere Xinyu—with this Xia Xi personally taking action, wouldn’t she be easily handled?
Seeing the strange smile on Xia Xi’s face, Xia Yue thought to herself that this kid was beyond saving. His mind had definitely gone off the rails. Maybe they should send him to a mental hospital? Who knows, he might even unlock some amazing dungeon where he slays gods.
…
“So you’re my sister’s classmate, Leng Xiyu?”
Luo Xinyu wore sunglasses and dressed stylishly, completely different from the casually dressed Xia Xi of the past.
The moment Xia Yue saw her own brother, she was struck by how handsome he looked.
How had she never noticed before that her brother actually cleaned up quite nicely?
“Yeah, that’s me. I’ll be counting on you this time.”
Xia Xi had no intention of revealing his identity. In this situation, it was best to just play along as Leng Xiyu. Otherwise, he’d definitely be accused of flirting around again.
One troublesome thing: he didn’t have Leng Xiyu’s memories.
In the past, when he entered another girl’s body, the original owner’s consciousness would still be there to provide information. But this time was different—the system had put Leng Xiyu’s consciousness into a deep sleep, leaving Xia Xi to face everything alone.
Fortunately, Leng Xiyu was naturally a quiet, normal girl to begin with, so during the time he’d spent with his sister, he hadn’t given himself away.
“Hmm… you look decent enough. Not a total loss. I guess I can barely be your boyfriend for a few days.”
Hearing those words come out of her brother’s mouth, Xia Yue immediately made a puzzled face.
She tilted her little head, her eyes full of scrutiny.
Was this really her brother?
Could it be…
She looked up and locked eyes with Luo Xinyu.
Luo Xinyu raised a hand and stylishly pulled off the sunglasses, her bright eyes blinking twice.
Just as she thought! This person wasn’t her idiot brother at all! This was… this was Sister Xinyu!
She hadn’t expected her idiot brother and Sister Xinyu to be playing such a wild game—swapping bodies even in their daily lives.
Damn, why did she feel just a tiny bit jealous!
If this Yueyue had her idiot brother’s body, she’d have already made countless beautiful girls fall at her feet!
Heh heh, when that time came, she’d have Bai Xiaocha wash her feet, An Xiaoyu feed her, Sister Xinyu whisper sweet nothings, and Liu Jiaying wait on her hand and foot!
As she thought about it, the expression on Xia Yue’s cute little face began to turn strange.
Exactly the same as “Leng Xiyu” beside her, who was still lost in her own fantasies.
This scene left Luo Xinyu completely baffled.
She supposed this was what happened when people were from the same class, same dorm, taught by the same teacher? Even their expressions while daydreaming were identical.
“Yeah, yeah, you’re not at a loss, but I’m losing out big time.”
Xia Xi pouted.
Luo Xinyu was a girl to begin with, so intimacy between two girls was perfectly normal. You could even say that two soft, sweet-smelling girls cuddling together—neither side was at a disadvantage.
But Xia Xi was different.
He was a guy who’d turned into a girl, and now he had to use a girl’s body to please another guy.
Just imagine it—two men pressed together… yikes, that was kind of terrifying.
It was only after all these days of Luo Xinyu’s “training” that his tolerance had increased quite a bit. Plus, the person he’d be getting close to was his own original body, so he wouldn’t feel too disgusted.
If he had to get close to some strange man, there was no way he’d do it.
Who knows if he’d get knocked out while in a girl’s body and then have unspeakable things done to him.
He himself hadn’t even graduated from being a virgin yet—he didn’t want to experience losing his virginity as a girl first!
“Hmm? You’re losing out?”
Luo Xinyu suddenly leaned in close, her nose almost touching Xia Xi’s.
“Am I not handsome enough?”
Xia Xi: “?”
Was Xinyu this narcissistic? No, you couldn’t really call it narcissistic—it was more like, in Luo Xinyu’s eyes, he was actually handsome enough for her to say it so confidently.
Hehehe, even Xinyu acknowledged his handsomeness. He really was a tough guy!
“Handsome, handsome, you’re the handsomest in the world. Not just handsome, but kind too—handsome and good-hearted. Whoever marries you would be truly blessed, lucky for eight lifetimes, blah blah blah.”
Hearing such unreserved praise, Luo Xinyu didn’t react for a moment.
According to her plan, the other person should have shyly lowered their head. Why were they shamelessly bragging instead?
Whatever. At least it seemed like the other person didn’t dislike Xia Xi, which meant pretending to be a couple would go more smoothly.
“Stop! I know I have many good qualities, but you don’t need to keep praising me. What’s your plan? We can’t just stay home all day pretending to be a couple—that won’t solve anything.”
Funny enough, Xia Xi’s actual plan was exactly that: hole up at home for a couple of days and drag things out until the mission time limit ran out. By then, whatever Xinyu and Xiyu planned would have nothing to do with him.
But now that the other person had brought it up, he couldn’t very well say he just wanted to stay home. That would be too suspicious.
After all, Leng Xiyu had rushed over to ask Xia Yue for help in a panic. Now that she’d gotten the person she needed, she couldn’t exactly say she wasn’t in a hurry.
“Plan… got it! Let’s go out and wander around. If Du Xiyan really cares about me, she’ll definitely find out what we’re doing, and then she’ll probably come looking for us herself.”
Since Leng Xiyu said the other person was a yandere, she would definitely be keeping tabs on her movements. Now all Xia Xi needed to do was deliberately reveal that she had a “boyfriend,” and he could easily lure the snake out of its hole!
