With My Ability To Swap, I Will Never End Up In A Love Triangle Mess - Chapter 139
“We’re here. You can go in yourself. Vehicles for outsiders aren’t allowed into the school.”
And just like that, An Xiaoyu was dropped off at the school gate.
She walked up to the access control point, glanced at the facial recognition camera, and then entered the campus.
Although her high school used those folding gates, she was, after all, a person living in modern society. This kind of facial recognition system didn’t surprise her in the slightest.
This wasn’t like the old days of “Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden” anymore. Nowadays, a lot of information is open and transparent. With the rise of short video platforms, people can learn about many things without even leaving their homes.
“The university is so big… It’s completely different from my high school…”
Hugging her books, An Xiaoyu walked along the campus road, watching the university students walking in groups and chatting with each other. She felt a deep sense of envy.
She hadn’t had any friends during her school years, let alone after starting work. The only people who occasionally showed her some concern were the bosses placing orders, but that was just a transaction of interests and couldn’t be counted as friendship.
If she hadn’t accidentally swapped bodies with Brother Xixi, she couldn’t even imagine having such a good life now.
She no longer had to worry about her mother’s illness. She had a brother who took care of her, and a lively, adorable little sister—although that little sister was always picking on her…
“I remember, it’s Classroom A301…”
She took out the phone that belonged to Xia Xi, found the campus map, and slowly made her way towards the teaching building.
There were still about ten minutes left before the second class started. No need to rush.
Arriving at the classroom door, An Xiaoyu saw the teacher sitting at the lectern, and no one in the classroom was looking her way. She immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Brother Xixi had told her to just go straight into the classroom, that her classmates and teacher wouldn’t pay her any mind. It seemed he was right.
If this were high school, the teacher would definitely have stopped her, and she would have been stared at by her classmates as if she were a circus animal, making her want to sink through the floor.
“The back row…”
She kept remembering what Xia Xi had told her.
*Always* sit in the back row. The back row is the safest place in the whole classroom. You can even sleep there without any problems.
She took a step towards the back, but before she could get far, she heard someone calling her.
“Xia Xi, Xia Xi, over here!”
The voice wasn’t very loud, probably also afraid of disturbing the other students.
An Xiaoyu looked towards where the voice came from.
She saw Lin Xuening sitting in the first row, waving at her. There were many empty seats around her.
In fact, it would be more accurate to say that the first two rows of the classroom were sparsely populated, with only a few people.
An Xiaoyu glanced towards the back row and saw only one middle seat left, surrounded entirely by boys. Hesitating for a moment, she walked towards Lin Xuening.
Better to sit with her familiar Sister Xuening than to be surrounded by a bunch of boys she didn’t know.
Even though it was the first row, according to what Brother Xixi said, university teachers didn’t police things too strictly… so it should be fine, right?
“Huh? You’re actually willing to sit in the first row? It couldn’t be because I called you over, could it?”
Lin Xuening looked at “Xia Xi” who had sat down beside her with a grin, then pulled a small bag out from under the desk.
“Here. I knew you hadn’t eaten breakfast, so I specially bought you some baozi and soy milk. Too bad you missed the first class; they’re a bit cold now.”
An Xiaoyu looked at the other girl curiously.
Did Sister Xuening bring breakfast for Brother Xixi every day? No wonder he preferred sleeping an extra five minutes at home rather than eating breakfast.
“Thank you.”
An Xiaoyu didn’t stand on ceremony. She took the baozi and soy milk and started eating.
*Hmph, Brother Xixi ate my breakfast, so now I’m eating his. That’s not excessive at all! This is called… reciprocity!*
But… Sister Xuening is so good to Brother Xixi, yet he’s still keeping Sister Xinyu at home. That’s really too much.
When An Xiaoyu first learned that Luo Xinyu was going to move into their house, she had been utterly shocked. Later, discovering that Sister Xinyu also had feelings for her Brother Xixi, she became genuinely troubled.
Deep down, she actually leaned more towards Lin Xuening. After all, she had witnessed everything Lin Xuening did for Xia Xi on a daily basis. Even now, bringing him breakfast seemingly every day highlighted Lin Xuening’s kindness.
Luo Xinyu didn’t seem bad either. She was a good girl, appearing to be the gentle, virtuous, big sister type. But because An Xiaoyu had met Lin Xuening first, she secretly hoped her Sister Xuening could defeat Luo Xinyu, this “sudden interloper.”
“Wow, you actually said thank you! Before, you’d just eat silently and then fall asleep.”
Lin Xuening covered her mouth, putting on a very surprised expression.
An Xiaoyu’s eating movement paused for a second.
So *that’s* how Brother Xixi usually treats Sister Xuening? No, I have to help salvage his image!
“I’m actually very polite, you know,” she said with a serious expression.
“Yeah, yeah, our Xia Xi is the most polite.”
Lin Xuening rested her head on her arm, leaning on the desk. Her eyes curved into crescents as she smiled, looking at Xia Xi.
But her tone sounded exactly like someone humoring a child.
“Hmph, as long as you know it.”
An Xiaoyu gave a light hum, feeling somewhat pleased with herself.
Even though Lin Xuening had used Xia Xi’s name, right now *she* was Xia Xi. So the compliment was for her. *She* was the most polite!
Seeing her proud expression, the smile on Lin Xuening’s face stiffened slightly. A whirlwind of thoughts began in her mind:
*Hmph?*
Since when does Xia Xi start a sentence with a tone particle like that? It makes him seem kinda tsundere…
Speaking of tsundere, isn’t there an An Xiaoyu at Xia Xi’s house? Now that I think about it…
This Xia Xi in front of me really does seem to have a bit of An Xiaoyu’s shadow about him.
Remembering the supernatural incident that had happened to her before, a suspicion began to form in her heart.
“Hey, Xiaoyu, are the baozi good? That place has been a family-run shop for decades.”
An Xiaoyu slurped up the broth from the soup-filled baozi, licked her lips, and nodded vigorously.
“They’re delicious. Which shop is it? I’ll go support their business myself in the future.”
Because everyone usually called her ‘Xiaoyu’ in daily life, in An Xiaoyu’s subconscious, the address ‘Xiaoyu’ was directed at herself. She instinctively responded to Lin Xuening’s words.
“Oh? You’re Xiaoyu? Aren’t you Xia Xi?”
Hearing this, An Xiaoyu’s body jolted. Her eyes, fixed on Lin Xuening, widened suddenly.
“Sister Xuening, you tricked me!”
*Heh, just as I thought…*
The corner of Lin Xuening’s mouth lifted slightly. She had discovered the truth.
She had told Xia Xi the name and location of that shop before. It was impossible for him not to know. And, the other party had zero reaction to the call ‘Xiaoyu’, clearly being used to being called that. Therefore, the truth could only be one thing!
This person wasn’t Xia Xi, but the tsundere girl, An Xiaoyu!
