I Swapped Bodies With a Female Celebrity - Chapter 65

Qin Lang naturally had no idea what Qin Yunxuan thought of him. Only now did he truly understand what it meant to be cyberbullied and doxxed!

When he woke up in the morning and turned on his phone, the already outdated device completely gave up.

Thousands of text messages and hundreds of missed calls flooded in all at once.

Overwhelmed, the phone officially departed from this beautiful world.

“Sigh!” Qin Lang felt a headache coming on. He lay back on the bed, seriously considering what to do next.

He wasn’t too bothered by the rumors spreading at Yunjing University. After all, he wasn’t a celebrity and didn’t need to maintain a public image.

As for cyberbullying? Well, as long as it didn’t affect his wallet or his stomach, Qin Lang couldn’t care less.

A few harsh words wouldn’t kill him, right?

Besides, he wasn’t some important figure—the buzz would die down soon enough.

Think about all those sensational scandals in the entertainment industry: divorces, affairs, betrayals…

They caused a stir for a while, but eventually, everything blew over. What was the big deal?

The real problem facing Qin Lang now was… how to solve his next meal!

He had less than fifty yuan left—he couldn’t survive on instant noodles forever, could he?

And who knew how long he’d have to hold out before his antivirus software sold?

Worst of all, his family had just sent him money. He’d be too ashamed to tell them he was broke again.

“This sucks!”

Qin Lang rubbed his growling stomach and chugged a large glass of plain water.

Water might not fill him up, but at least he could fill his stomach with volume.

“Why should I suffer like this?”

The more he thought about it, the more wrong it felt. Qin Yunxuan had spent all his money, and now he was on the verge of eating dirt!

And after all he’d done for her—writing songs, helping her show off…

Ding-dong!

Just then, the doorbell rang.

“Who is it?”

Qin Lang reluctantly dragged himself out of bed. Every step meant wasting precious energy.

When he finally reached the door and opened it, he was surprised to see an unexpected guest.

Chen Xiyuan!

“Qin Lang, hello, I—”

Slam! Qin Lang shut the door without hesitation.

“An illusion—it must be an illusion. There’s no way Chen Xiyuan would be at my doorstep. This has to be an illusion!”

Chen Xiyuan outside the door was stunned.

She’d imagined many possible reactions from Qin Lang—shock, confusion, even anger—but she never expected him to shut the door in her face!

He actually closed the door!

When had she ever been treated like this?

Bang, bang, bang!

“Qin Lang, open the door! If you have the guts to do those things to me, have the guts to open up!”

Her clear voice echoed through the entire hallway.

Qin Lang’s corners of the mouth twitched. What kind of outrageous talk was this? What did I even do to you?

Neighbors curiously peeked out their doors, staring in their direction.

“Wow, such a pretty girl. Young people these days are really…”

“Tch, doing that to a girl and not taking responsibility? Kids these days have no sense of duty!”

“Ugh, if I had such a beautiful girlfriend, I’d never kick her out. What a waste!”

…

Creak— The door opened. Qin Lang pulled Chen Xiyuan inside and slammed the door shut again.

“Alright, could you stop shouting? Do you want me to ever show my face here again?” Qin Lang looked exasperated.

Chen Xiyuan grinned, glanced around the room, and plopped down on a nearby chair.

Qin Lang sighed softly and poured her a glass of water. “No other drinks—make do with this.”

Then, silence fell between them.

Chen Xiyuan didn’t know how to begin, while Qin Lang had no idea what was happening!

If he spoke carelessly, would Chen Xiyuan notice something off?

To Chen Xiyuan, Qin Lang’s silence felt like a silent accusation.

“Um… Qin Lang, I’m sorry!” After hesitating for a moment, Chen Xiyuan took a deep breath and spoke solemnly.

“Huh? What?” Qin Lang was taken aback.

Chen Xiyuan hurriedly explained, “I’m really sorry. I never expected things to blow up like this. I was genuinely angry with you at first—after all, you barged into the women’s restroom, and then you said those things to me in the cafeteria…”

“But I never meant to hurt you like this! I just wanted to teach you a lesson, but now… things have gotten out of hand. I’ve caused you harm, and I… I’m sorry!”

Qin Lang’s corners of the mouth twitched again. So, from the sound of it, they weren’t actually dating?

Qin Yunxuan had taken control of his body, entered the women’s restroom, clashed with Chen Xiyuan, and then Chen Xiyuan claimed he was her boyfriend to get back at her?

So that’s how it was! No wonder—there was no way Qin Yunxuan could’ve won over Chen Xiyuan so quickly.

Figuring out the truth, Qin Lang felt relieved.

But looking at the youthful and charming Chen Xiyuan, he still felt a twinge of regret.

After all, as a single guy who’d been alone for over twenty years, he really hoped to change his relationship status someday!

“It’s fine,” Qin Lang exhaled. “This whole thing started because of me. I just… accidentally walked in. As long as you don’t think I’m some creepy peeping tom, it’s alright.”

“I’m sorry for misunderstanding you!” Chen Xiyuan looked worried. “But what do we do now? Almost everyone at school thinks you’re my boyfriend!”

Just thinking about it gave Qin Ling a headache.

“Can’t you just explain it to them?”

“I’ve tried, but no one believes me.”

“What if… you found yourself an actual boyfriend? Wouldn’t that clear my name?”

“No way! I’m not interested in any of the guys at school.”

Qin Lang was truly out of ideas.

“Then I don’t know what else to do. Let’s just wait it out. I’m sure people will lose interest eventually. After all… I’m not exactly a big deal.”

Chen Xiyuan glanced at him, surprised.

Most people in this situation would at least show some frustration, even if they claimed not to care.

But why did Qin Lang seem genuinely unbothered?

Was he unaware of how serious this was, or was he just that easygoing?

“Still… I have another idea,” Chen Xiyuan bit her lip and hesitated before speaking.

Just as Qin Lang was about to respond, he felt his stomach rumble again and quickly took a big gulp of water.

“Be my boyfriend!”

Pfft—

The water never made it down his throat—he spat it out instantly!
