Lin Xueling looked at the head that belonged to Xia Xi in her hand, then glanced at Xia Xi, who now had her appearance, feeling a bit embarrassed.
“Sister Xiaoxue, put it on~ Isn’t this way better than a skull?”
“Exactly, exactly. Sister Xiaoxue, just put it on. Look how naturally Xia Xi wore your headpiece earlier.”
Luo Xinyu said this while glancing in Xia Xi’s direction.
Seeing this, Xia Xi didn’t really know what to say and could only scratch his cheek awkwardly.
What else could he do? He’d been through situations like this so many times that his nerves felt pretty desensitized. He just didn’t feel the same shyness about a member of the opposite sex’s body that Lin Xueling did.
Besides, it was just a head. What was there to be shy about? If just a head made her that embarrassed, then Luo Xinyu was currently wearing men’s boxer briefs—shouldn’t she be so shy she’d faint?
And besides, when he and Lin Xueling swapped identities before, they had exchanged clothes with each other. Why wasn’t she this shy back then?
Xia Xi still remembered that back in the changing room, Lin Xueling had even insisted on swapping their most intimate clothing!
In the end, Lin Xueling, encouraged by the other two girls, finally placed the head that belonged to Xia Xi onto her own skeletal head.
“Ahem.”
Feeling the mask-like tightness on her face, Lin Xueling tried clearing her throat a couple of times.
Since the headpiece covered her down to the neck, her voice naturally turned into Xia Xi’s masculine tone.
“It feels so strange,” she murmured.
“Alright, alright, now that everyone’s suited up, let’s move on to the next round~”
Xia Xi didn’t waste any more time and picked up the large die to start the next round.
He really didn’t want to keep walking around in a skeletal body. Even though there was no wind inside the game space, it still felt like he was exposed.
Who in their right mind would be comfortable walking around naked?!!!
This round, Xia Xi’s luck was noticeably better. He and An Xiaoyu both rolled a three, while our young lady, as usual, had terrible luck and rolled a two.
Maybe it was because Lin Xueling was a newbie when it came to Xia Xi’s body-swapping ability and had some beginner’s luck, but she rolled a six again.
Though drawing last wasn’t necessarily a good thing—what if all the good body parts were taken by others?
“Xia Xi, it’s your foot.”
Luo Xinyu drew Xia Xi’s leg. Since this wasn’t her first time using Xia Xi’s body, she put it on naturally.
And Xia Xi’s leg perfectly connected with his own hip section, essentially forming the complete lower half of Xia Xi’s body.
As for Xia Xi and An Xiaoyu, they drew Lin Xueling’s leg and Lin Xueling’s hand, respectively.
Finally, Lin Xueling drew Xia Xi’s hand.
Instead of immediately starting the next round, everyone took a moment to feel the sensations from their new body parts.
Xia Xi looked down. Lin Xueling’s legs now belonged to him, and what caught his eye the most were her impeccably maintained feet.
Perhaps the system considered body parts like legs and feet as non-private, so it didn’t provide shoes or socks. This left Xia Xi standing barefoot.
His current state resembled those “exposed bone” images you’d see online. He had a flesh-and-blood head and neck, paired with flesh-and-blood legs, but everything from above his thighs to below his neck was just a skeleton. Wasn’t that essentially a partial “exposed bone” look?
The ones who looked relatively normal at the moment were probably Luo Xinyu and Lin Xueling.
One had a complete lower body, while the other had a complete upper body from the chest up. They didn’t look quite as jarring.
Everyone was familiar with the game process by now, so the third round of dice rolling went quickly.
Still, Luo Xinyu drew first, followed by Xia Xi, then An Xiaoyu, and finally Lin Xueling.
Luo Xinyu, smiling cheerfully, put on the upper body she had drawn, which belonged to An Xiaoyu, as if she were getting dressed.
This was no small matter. With Xia Xi’s legs and hips and An Xiaoyu’s upper body, the combination made her look like a skeleton with an incredibly disproportionate body—the kind where “the legs start right below the neck.” After all, she still hadn’t drawn a head or arms.
“My turn.”
Xia Xi reached into the mystery box, eagerly anticipating that he would draw his own upper body.
After all, aside from his upper body, everything else that belonged to “Xia Xi” had already been claimed by the others!
However, when he saw what he had drawn, he was completely dumbfounded.
Because he had drawn another pair of legs!!!
Earlier, he had already drawn a pair of Lin Xueling’s legs and put them on. Now, he had drawn Luo Xinyu’s legs. What was he supposed to do…
“Pfft.”
Seeing Xia Xi’s predicament, Luo Xinyu couldn’t help but burst out laughing again.
Hmph~ This was what he got for being so flirtatious all the time. Now, karma had come to collect!
“What do I do now? How am I supposed to wear this?”
Xia Xi looked at the others with a confused expression.
“Don’t look at me, okay~ The game rules clearly state that you can’t swap drawn parts. You wear whatever you draw~”
Luo Xinyu stifled her laughter and made it clear that his bad luck was his own problem, having nothing to do with the others.
But since Xia Xi had drawn an extra pair of legs, it meant that someone else would have to put something else on their legs.
Thinking that he wasn’t the only unlucky one—that there would be another poor soul to share his misery—Xia Xi’s mood improved a little.
He sighed helplessly, grabbed one of the legs, and slipped it onto his left hand.
The feeling of skin enveloping his limb quickly spread from his left hand.
Xia Xi tried wiggling his fingers. On his “left hand,” the round, well-shaped toes wiggled in response.
He also tried making a fist and opening his palm. The former curled the front part of the foot into an arch, while the latter caused all the toes to spread out and curl upward.
Essentially, this left leg that belonged to Luo Xinyu now functioned as his left hand, and it wasn’t much different from using a regular arm.
After a brief trial, he put the remaining right leg onto his right arm’s skeletal structure.
Now, Xia Xi had experienced what it was like to have his hands and feet reversed, just like when he was in An Xiaoyu’s body and had to deal with An Hu’s situation.
But the difference was, he didn’t have his hands and feet swapped—he now had two pairs of legs.
“Pfft, Brother Xia Xi, you look so funny right now~”
Even An Xiaoyu couldn’t help but laugh.
However, Xia Xi didn’t feel embarrassed.
Why was that?
Naturally, because the face he was currently wearing belonged to his esteemed class monitor, Lin Xueling~
If anyone was losing face, it was Lin Xueling, not him. Why should he feel embarrassed? Hehe…
And that was exactly the reality. Among the four people present, Xia Xi was directly involved, so he didn’t laugh. Lin Xueling, on the other hand, looked at her own head sitting on top of two pairs of legs and didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.
