Chapter 10: Don’t Rush! Should We Squeeze Everything Out of Them First?
What's the 'preferences' you're talking about?
Lin Yibai had no idea… she had already "poked" her rival right in the most private spot.
She also didn’t think too much about that sketch Xia Changyu had drawn.
The short shorts, the T-shirt, what did that have to do with her?
After all, she wasn’t one of those girls who liked to daydream.
You know, the kind that sees Xia Changyu and goes “Aaaaahhh!” and starts imagining herself as the heroine of his love story?
No. As a qualified rival—
In Lin Yibai’s eyes, all she saw in that sketch was Gu Xiaoxue’s shadow everywhere. That made her so angry she shouted, “Damn it! Showing off your love in front of me? What a dumb piece of crap!”
Lin Yibai swore that the next time she caught that stupid dead fish, she’d fry him before finishing him off.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t feel at peace. She had even typed out a whole list of angry curses.
But then she remembered how hard it was to register this secret account...
So she held back.
“Just wait! One day, I’ll make him suffer real good.”
Lin Yibai lay down on her bed, ready to sleep.
A small green four-blade fan hung near her head, gently blowing air. But the more she thought about her rival, the angrier she got. And when she looked at the fan, she felt even more annoyed. It spun so slowly, and it was green.
“It’s even slower than a tractor…”
“Ughhh~”
Even the color of the fan felt unlucky.
If she had known, she wouldn’t have bought a green one. Back then, she thought green would look more lively.
She turned off the fan.
“So hot~~~!”
She had gone from being angry because of TikTok… to now almost dying from the heat.
Especially her chest, it felt heavy and uncomfortable.
Where she was lying, a little bit of sweat had started to soak through, making her feel awful. It was like shaving your armpits and then sweating a lot, super gross.
Lin Yibai couldn’t take it anymore.
She turned the fan back on and pulled open her shirt collar.
A weak breeze blew into the collar and brought some coolness to her chest.
After a while, she started feeling sleepy. But every time she was about to fall asleep, nightmares would wake her up.
She had been through way too much today.
Gu Xiaoxue, the love rival, the sudden fact that “he” had turned into a girl...
And now she had to worry about fire, theft... and her own roommates!
Who knows how much time passed before Lin Yibai finally fell into a deep sleep. Only to be startled awake again by the school’s morning bell.
Looking at the morning light outside, Lin Yibai couldn’t help but cry out.
“What the—?! I just closed my eyes for a second… How is it already morning?! Oh no—this is bad!”
She had actually made a plan.
She (Lin Yibai, now in a girl’s body) had planned to quietly sneak out of the dorm before the guys woke up.
But… she had overslept.
Now, in this 20-square-meter dorm room. Even though the guys were still lying in bed, sounds of scrolling on phones and typing were already coming from behind some of the closed curtains.
Their dorm leader Yang Chenjun even set the example by saying, “Come on, guys! Time to get up! We’ve got class first and second period. If we’re late again, we’ll lose all our attendance points!”
Soon, the roommates started climbing out of bed.
Only behind Lin Yibai’s curtain, there was no movement at all.
She was already panicking, afraid that one of the boys might pull open her curtain.
And that would be way worse than pulling off a wedding veil.
“What should I do?!”
“I’m doomed!”
“Are my roommates going to ‘enjoy’ this!?”
If you suddenly turn into a super beautiful girl and your roommates are about to find out… what should you do?
Urgent! Need help online—ASAP!
Lin Yibai posted a question on an online forum.
Ding-dong~
Oh? Did someone reply?
Lin Yibai quickly opened it, only to see:
“Why not let your brothers enjoy first?”
“What’s the rush? Squeeze it all out of them.”
“Nice one, brother above!”
“......”
After reading the replies, Lin Yibai felt completely hopeless.
She should’ve known, what good advice could come from a bunch of jokers on the forum?
They were just messing around.
Meanwhile, Yang Chenjun and the others had finished washing up and were getting ready to head to class with their books.
When they saw that Lin Yibai’s bed curtain was still tightly closed…
Yang Chenjun started to feel something was wrong and called out.
“Xiao Bai, are you still not getting up? Xiao Bai? Xiao Bai… why aren’t you saying anything, Xiao Bai?”
Yang Chenjun suddenly got worried.
Uh-oh… did something happen?
Lin Yibai was panicking even more. Oh no… Yang Chenjun’s probably going to open the curtain!
She wrapped herself in a thin blanket at lightning speed, then put on a face mask and a baseball cap.
“Xiao Bai!!”
Yang Chenjun pulled open the curtain.
Inside, someone was wrapped up like a dumpling, with only a pale leg sticking out.
Yang Chenjun reached in and grabbed the leg, shaking it hard.
“Hey! Lin Yibai, are you okay?!”
Suddenly, a strange feeling hit Yang Chenjun’s hand.
He had just touched something way too soft and smooth. It sent a strange sensation through his palm.
Like silk?
No… even softer than silk.
Whoa!! That smooth leg felt better than gripping a basketball!
While his brain was still trying to process what he just touched and what was going on. Lin Yibai quickly pulled the leg back under the blanket.
Now, only a pair of eyes peeked out.
This gave Yang Chenjun a huge fright and snapped him out of his strange thoughts.
“Whoa whoa whoa, Xiao Bai!!! D-Don’t scare me like that!”
Tap tap tap~
Lin Yibai couldn’t speak, so she quickly typed on her phone and pushed it out from under the blanket.
“I worked a part-time job last night and then took a cold shower. Now I have a bad cold and my throat hurts really bad… I can’t talk.”
“Xiao Bai! I’ll take you to see the doctor right now!”
Tap tap
“No need.”
“Xiao Bai, you can’t ignore this. A cold needs care.”
Tap tap tap tap tap…
“I’ll go to the school clinic myself later. Can you please help me ask for leave? You should go to class now. Thanks.”
“......”
Finally, after all that effort. Yang Chenjun reluctantly left for class, and only then did Lin Yibai breathe a sigh of relief.
Once all the roommates had gone, she quickly got out of bed, washed up, put on her mask and cap, and hurried out of the dorm.
Right now, her “female behavior meter” had dropped to around 70%. She needed to get it down to zero.
“If acting like a girl adds to the meter, then maybe acting like a guy will subtract points?”
As a responsible college student, Lin Yibai began thinking seriously.
She needed to figure out which actions looked like “girl behavior” (added points), and which ones counted as “guy behavior” (removed points).
She already knew some girl behaviors, like being sad over Gu Xiaoxue, definitely added points.
But what about guy behaviors?
What things only guys usually do?
“Picking your feet… does that count?”
She found a corner and scratched at his feet hard, but found it didn’t work.
Apparently… some girls picked their feet even more fiercely than guys did.
While she was still stressing about how to turn back into a guy—
Good roommate Yang Chenjun, now sitting in the big lecture hall, started thinking again.
“Wait a second… Xiao Bai’s leg?”
“Whoa…” He shook his head and said, “I must have imagined it. There’s no way Xiao Bai’s leg could be that white, soft, and smooth.”
Unless…
“Is there something wrong with me?”
“Am I a pervert?”
No no no—cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He wasn’t that kind of person.
Lin Yibai? Yeah, it’s all Lin Yibai’s fault.
Even if he was turning into a pervert, it was Lin Yibai who made him like this.
