With My Ability To Swap, I Will Never End Up In A Love Triangle Mess - Chapter 107
“Sis Xue, you bought such a big bag of cat food—do you have a kitten at home?”
Luo Xinyu had already been picked up by her bodyguard, leaving only Xia Xi and Lin Xuening to walk home together.
Seeing the large bag of cat food and treats Lin Xuening was carrying, Xia Xi was a bit puzzled. Back when they had swapped identities and she went to her place, she clearly hadn’t noticed any pets.
“Yes, there’s a really cute cat at our school. Since almost everyone will be gone for winter break, I thought I’d take care of her for the month.”
That explanation made things clear to Xia Xi.
So this little lady had swapped bodies with the cat senior a few times and wanted to keep her close by in case they swapped again, huh.
Looking at the Animal Transformation Trial Card she’d just gotten from a temporary quest, Xia Xi came up with a fun idea. She curled her lips into a smile, opened her eyes wide, and gazed admiringly at Lin Xuening.
“Sis Xue, you’re so amazing! I’ve always wanted to keep a cat, but my big brother won’t let me…”
Oh, you little trickster, Xia Xi—what are you scheming now? You are the “big brother,” yet you’re lying to her, saying “big brother won’t allow it.”
Lin Xuening’s mind raced, but she still couldn’t figure out what the other was up to.
Maybe… he actually wants to keep a cat himself, but given his current identity, this is the only way he can say it? Mhmm, that must be it—Xia Xi himself wants to keep a cat!
“No worries, I’ll bring Xiao You over to your place to play tomorrow~”
“Xiao You?”
“Oh, it’s just a random name I came up with for the cat—don’t worry about it!”
Lots of people at school had given the cat senior names, but everyone pretty much only used their own names for her, so there wasn’t one agreed-upon name.
“Sis Xue, you’re home.”
Lin Xuening glanced toward her house, where the lights were still on, then turned back to Xia Xi with a sweet smile.
“Let me walk you home first. It’s not safe for a little girl to walk alone at night.”
Hearing that, Xia Xi pouted.
What did she mean, “a little girl walking alone isn’t safe”? She herself was a young girl too!
Besides, he was a full-blooded dude, a tough guy! Even if he’d turned into a petite girl now, he wasn’t going to be scared of a little night walking.
“No need, I’ll be fine. You should head inside, Sis Xue.”
“But…”
Even though Lin Xuening knew the little one in front of her was actually Xia Xi, a boy, she was still a bit worried.
What if he ran into some bad guys wandering around at night? With that small, delicate body, could he really get away?
Suddenly, the front door of Lin Xuening’s house opened, and her father stepped out with a stern face.
“I saw you standing out here from the window. If you don’t come home, are you planning to sleep on the streets?”
Her father had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He complained like this, but he really just wanted Lin Xuening to come inside quickly.
“I just wanted to walk my classmate’s little sister home,” Lin Xuening muttered under her breath.
“You go inside. I’ll walk her home. Two young girls—I’d worry about either of you walking alone at night.”
And so, in the end…
Xia Xi stood in front of her own door, watching a certain figure hurriedly running away, and couldn’t help but chuckle.
Uncle was something else—usually he seemed so serious, but now he was saying, “What’s there to be afraid of on a little night walk?” then scurrying nervously toward home when no one was looking, as if some monster would jump out if he ran even a little too slow.
…
“I’m home!”
Pushing the door open and changing into the Hatsune Miku slippers that belonged to Xia Yue, Xia Xi felt the soreness in her feet and really wanted to sigh: Shopping with girls is exhausting!
“Big brother, you’re finally back! I’m starving~”
Hearing her own male voice speaking in such a coquettish tone, Xia Xi shuddered as if she’d been electrocuted.
“Xia Yue, talk normally!”
Now she understood how Liu Yiyi must have felt back in the screening room when she heard those soft, comfortable gasps coming from her own body.
“Hehe, there’s no one else here, so it’s fine—daijoubu!”
Xia Xi looked at the noticeably thinner face of her own body and immediately knew that this girl hadn’t just skipped lunch—she’d probably skipped dinner too.
Luckily, she’d brought back plenty of late-night snacks, enough for the other to feast.
But…
Can skipping meals give you dark circles?
For some reason, Xia Yue gave off a very weak vibe right now. Who knows what this girl had been doing at home all day…
Xia Yue wolfed down skewers and chugged cola while talking to Xia Xi.
“Oh, by the way, bro, we’re out of tissues at home. Do you have any left?”
Xia Xi glanced up at her and pulled a small pack of tissues from her skirt pocket.
“I thought we still had two boxes at home? How did we run out so fast?”
Hearing her brother’s question, Xia Yue scratched her head sheepishly.
“Well, I was heating up food in the kitchen and accidentally knocked over some seasoning, so I used tissues to clean it up~”
Xia Xi peeked at the crumpled tissues in the trash—there wasn’t a trace of any seasoning stains. Instead… it looked almost like milk…
Alright, now she knew why Xia Yue looked so weak…
Seeing her brother’s expression change after looking into the trash, Xia Yue quickly put down her half-eaten skewers and scurried behind him with an ingratiating smile.
“Hehe, big brother~ You’ve been walking all day—you must be tired. Let your imouto give you a shoulder rub~”
Xia Xi closed her eyes and didn’t say a word.
Xia Yue’s eyes rolled around, then she dashed to the bathroom and came back with a basin of hot water.
“Big brother, don’t be mad! I was just curious, so I only did it a little… Let me wash your feet to make it up to you!”
Xia Xi rolled her eyes.
Seriously? “A little”? That was two whole packs of tissues!
But still, all things considered, getting a foot wash from her little sister didn’t sound too bad.
Xia Yue picked up the feet that originally belonged to her, took off the white socks, tossed them aside, and gently pressed the pair of feet into the water.
“How is it? Is the temperature okay~”
“Mhm… not bad.”
It had to be said—after walking all day, soaking your feet in hot water was really relaxing.
Seeing that her brother didn’t seem as angry anymore, Xia Yue put in even more effort.
She pressed her thumbs firmly into the soles of his feet, then worked her way from the heels to the toes, back and forth repeatedly.
The soles of Xia Yue’s feet had always been a sensitive spot for her, and now, with all this rubbing, Xia Xi felt almost overwhelmed with pleasure.
“Stop, stop, stop! I’ll wash them myself—go finish your snack!”
She couldn’t let her little sister keep going. If this continued for much longer, she felt like her head would start feeling fuzzy.
Hearing she didn’t have to massage his feet anymore, Xia Yue was more than happy to oblige. She blinked at Xia Xi, then went to the kitchen to wash her hands with soap before returning to her meal.
“Hehe, using my body’s weak spot against my loser brother—piece of cake~”
