With My Ability To Swap, I Will Never End Up In A Love Triangle Mess - Chapter 27
“Mission accomplished!”
After several hours of drawing, the Firefly Forest manga was finally completed, faithfully recreated from the original version in his mind.
“You’re amazing~”
Luo Xinyu praised him in their shared thoughts.
This was one of the perks of the young miss—no matter what Xia Xi did, she would always comfort or praise him, never contradicting him.
Well, except when it came to food. Luo Xinyu might object there—she didn’t want Xia Xi to turn her into a chubby girl from overeating.
Picking up Luo Xinyu’s phone, Xia Xi prepared to take pictures of the hand-drawn pages to digitize them.
“Wait! Actually… um… there’s a scanner right there.”
Thinking his method was too troublesome and might result in poor image quality, Luo Xinyu decided to tell him about the specialized scanner for hand-drawn artwork nearby. Though she wasn’t sure why her own reaction was a bit flustered.
“How do I use this? Like a photocopier?”
Unfamiliar with such tech, Xia Xi fumbled around like a country bumpkin, inspecting the device before finally lifting its lid.
It worked similarly to a printer—just place the drawings on the scanning bed and close the lid.
“You’ll need a computer. There’s a laptop in the side drawer—feel free to use it.”
Luo Xinyu’s desk was spacious, and its drawers were large enough to easily fit a high-performance laptop.
As for why she didn’t have a desktop? Probably because it took up too much space. After all, Luo Xinyu rarely used computers.
Under her guidance, the hand-drawn pages were successfully scanned and saved as digital files.
“The manga’s done. I’ll send it to you now.”
Logging into Luo Xinyu’s WeChat, Xia Xi packaged the files and sent them to Liu Yiyi.
The chat history on the computer was oddly clean—no past messages remained. Xia Xi found this strange. Shouldn’t there be saved records?
“Got it, thanks!”
Liu Yiyi replied almost instantly.
It was around 7 PM, right in the middle of her night-owl hours.
With another task checked off, Xia Xi let out a soft yawn and stretched.
The graceful curves of Luo Xinyu’s body were accentuated as she arched her back, a gentle “Mmm~” escaping her lips. If any healthy male had been present, they’d likely have felt a certain stirring down below.
It couldn’t be helped—aside from her paralyzed legs, Luo Xinyu was flawless in every other aspect: talent, intellect, status, and looks.
Imagine a near-perfect young miss casually flaunting her figure in front of you, even letting out soft, satisfied moans—how could anyone not be moved?
“Don’t move so exaggeratedly! You’re being so unladylike~”
Even Luo Xinyu herself found Xia Xi’s stretching sounds embarrassingly suggestive.
“It’s not like anyone’s watching. No need to be so stiff.”
Xia Xi didn’t care. First, he was alone—the maids had learned their lesson after barging in last time and getting scolded. Second, it wasn’t his image at stake, so why hold back?
“Alright, it’s getting late. Let’s call it a day. Bye-bye, my dear young miss~”
Today’s swap had been shorter than usual, but Luo Xinyu didn’t try to keep him. She simply smiled and said, “See you tomorrow,” before reclaiming control of her body.
“Phew… Good thing Xia Xi didn’t check the phone.”
Snatching up her sky-blue phone case, she swiftly entered the passcode to unlock it.
That’s right—our young miss had switched from fingerprint unlock to a passcode. Why? To keep Xia Xi out, of course!
Opening her chat with Liu Yiyi, Luo Xinyu sent three pig emojis.
Liu Yiyi instantly replied with three dog emojis.
“Seriously, why did you pick pig as our code? It’s like I’m admitting I’m a pig!” Liu Yiyi complained.
“Oh, it’s no big deal~”
Luo Xinyu reclined her wheelchair slightly, settling into a more comfortable half-lying position.
“He visited you again, didn’t he? Ugh, if he had time, why didn’t he come to me?”
Clearly, Liu Yiyi and Luo Xinyu had already formed an alliance, scheming together over Xia Xi.
The reason? After reading the documents her brother Luo Xingchen had sent, Luo Xinyu confronted Liu Yiyi in a heart-to-heart. The straightforward young miss confirmed that the same person was inhabiting both their bodies and successfully gained her second friend.
“Maybe because I still had unfinished manga pages?”
Luo Xinyu felt secretly pleased.
Even with multiple options, Xia Xi had still chosen her—proof that she was still the favorite.
Truthfully, she didn’t want him visiting other girls. Having never experienced friendship before, Luo Xinyu didn’t understand why she felt such a strong possessiveness.
All she knew was that when he was in her body, she was happy—she wanted to talk to him more.
And when he left, an inexplicable loneliness followed, like some kind of withdrawal.
“Hmph, don’t get cocky. Since he only visits you late at night, who’s to say he hasn’t found a new girl during the day?”
Liu Yiyi’s tone was dripping with sarcasm.
Luo Xinyu had considered this possibility. But given her position, what right did she have to demand Xia Xi choose only her? Rather than setting rules and risking his annoyance, it was better to play ignorant and quietly strengthen her place in his heart.
Pumping her fists slightly, she steeled herself.
“By the way, why do you want him to visit you? Weren’t you calling him a pervert before?”
Liu Yiyi seemed conflicted—cursing Xia Xi as a creep while simultaneously craving his presence. Luo Xinyu couldn’t make sense of it.
At first, she’d wondered if Xia Xi had done something inappropriate in Liu Yiyi’s body. But after asking, she learned he’d actually saved Liu Yiyi from death—without crossing any lines.
“Calling him names is one thing, but his stories are so captivating. After Firefly Forest, I’m dying to hear the next one in his head!”
That was her excuse, but Luo Xinyu wasn’t fooled.
No mere story could make someone this addicted to Xia Xi’s visits.
“Haven’t you thought about writing your own?”
“Of course! I’m working on one now. It’s called… Your Name!”
