With My Ability To Swap, I Will Never End Up In A Love Triangle Mess - Chapter 31
“Oh, my dear Class President Lin, what do you even want from me? I’ve already behaved—please just let me go.”
Staring at the message from Lin Xuenning on his phone, Xia Xi felt utterly helpless.
He had only sneaked off to the restroom to play on his phone for about twenty minutes, and yet she had already sent him a threatening text.
“If you don’t come back right now, I’ll report you to the teacher for skipping class!”
What a vicious woman! Xia Xi absolutely refused to—
“I’m coming back right away!”
Sometimes, you just had to swallow your pride. He really didn’t want to lose participation points for this class just because he got caught playing on his phone in the bathroom.
“Hmph, at least you know what’s good for you~”
Sitting in the back row, Lin Xuenning watched as Xia Xi hurriedly scrambled back into the classroom. A faint smile flickered across her face before she immediately reverted to her usual cold expression.
“Oh? Someone must have a weak bladder—or maybe constipation—to take that long in the bathroom.”
Listening to her mocking tone, Xia Xi rolled his eyes in annoyance.
Who even made it so I have to hide in the bathroom just to use my phone? Don’t play dumb!
Ugh, just seeing that smug look on Lin Xuenning’s face pissed him off!
Oh, you like acting all high and mighty, huh?
Then go reflect on yourself as a little kitten again!
Without hesitation, Xia Xi used the “Swap Binding Card” gifted by his system, targeting none other than the class president who kept giving him a hard time—and that lazy cat senior who always napped on the classroom windowsill.
Unlike the one-time swap cards he’d used before, this binding card permanently linked Lin Xuenning and the cat senior. Now, whenever he wanted, he could swap the two of them at will.
Heh, from now on, if this girl dares to mess with me, I’ll just turn her into a kitten!
“Meow!”
Another sharp cat cry echoed through the classroom.
Fortunately, the professor was pretty laid-back and simply pretended not to hear it, continuing to drone through his PowerPoint slides.
“Mew~”
(Why am I a cat again~?)
Though she had turned into a kitten and was now watching her own body snooze in the middle of class, she wasn’t as angry as one might expect.
Instead, she skillfully maneuvered the feline body, leaping effortlessly into Xia Xi’s lap.
“What are you clinging to me for? Get off!”
Xia Xi had planned to squeeze in a quick round of Teamfight Tactics before class ended, so he had no time to entertain Lin Xuemiao. But no matter how much he tried to shoo her away, the stubborn little furball dug her claws into his pants, refusing to budge.
If he pulled too hard, the fabric would snag on her claws.
Left with no choice, Xia Xi reluctantly let her curl up in his arms.
“Meow~”
(As expected, humans just can’t resist cute animals~ All I had to do was act a little adorable, and this dummy stopped trying to push me away.)
If Xia Xi could understand her meows, he would’ve cursed her out on the spot.
“Acting adorable”? You were threatening my pants! I don’t want them ripped to shreds, exposing my underwear!
Seeing the smug look on Lin Xuemiao’s little cat face, Xia Xi snorted.
Then, he pulled out a pen from his pocket and slowly moved it toward the sleeping “Lin Xuemiao” beside him.
“Meow?”
(What’s this idiot planning? He wouldn’t do anything too outrageous to me, would he?)
Watching that mischievous hand inch closer to her real body, Lin Xuemiao felt both anxious and… weirdly excited? She wasn’t even sure why she felt that way, but the emotion was undeniably there.
“Heheh, let’s draw a pig face on you—that’ll teach you to mess with me~”
Xia Xi first gave Lin Xuenning’s shoulder a few light shakes to confirm she was deep asleep. Then, with careful precision, he began sketching on her smooth, delicate cheek with the pen.
Thanks to the artistic skills he’d honed under Luo Xinyu’s tutelage, the pig’s face looked incredibly lifelike—perfectly at home on her skin.
“Not bad, not bad. Fits your personality perfectly.”
After admiring his masterpiece for a few seconds, he pulled out his phone and snapped a picture, saving it to his album.
“Lin Xuenning’s Embarrassing Photo – 1”
“Meow… meow…”
(This guy… this guy… How dare he do something so shameless, so despicable, so disgusting to a sleeping beauty?!)
Lin Xuemiao’s stomach let out a low, rumbling growl—a sound usually associated with a content, purring cat. But in her case, it was pure, unadulterated rage.
Of course, Xia Xi, being human, interpreted it differently. To him, she was just happily purring at his artistic skills.
“See? You think it’s good too, right? I’m telling you, if I posted this ‘Beauty with a Pig Face’ pic online, it’d go viral!”
Lin Xuemiao had had enough.
In one swift motion, she launched herself at Xia Xi’s chin, delivering a vicious headbutt that made him gasp in pain.
“Hey! That’s crossing the line! I was nice enough to hold you, and you repay me with a headbutt to the jaw?!”
He knew she’d be mad about him messing with her real body, but he never expected her to retaliate with a move that hurt her just as much as it hurt him.
“Meow~”
(Hmph! Serves you right for talking nonsense about posting my ugly photo online!)
With a proud little lift of her head, she settled back onto Xia Xi’s lap, curling up for a nap.
But Xia Xi wasn’t about to let her off that easily. This time, instead of targeting the sleeping Lin Xuenning, he turned his attention to Lin Xuemiao herself.
He waited for the perfect moment—then struck.
In one smooth motion, he grabbed the tip of her flicking tail.
“Meow?!” (Wait! No! You can’t—!)
Using one hand to pin her little head down, he rendered her completely immobile.
“Meow! Meow!” (That’s too—! Stop—!)
“Mew~” (Ah—!)
“Mew… mew…” (Nngh—!)
“Meeeooowww!” (I can’t—!)
Watching the squirming, mewling kitten under his palm, a deep sense of satisfaction washed over Xia Xi.
And then, with a devilish grin, he began gently swirling his finger inside her fluffy little ear.
As everyone knows, a cat’s ears and tail are extremely sensitive spots.
(Lin Xuemiao’s Experience)
Though her whole body felt strangely tingly, there was no denying that the sensation was… pleasurable. It was like a full-body massage—just way more intense than she expected…
