Junk food chips, gamer's happy cola, a 9.9 yuan free-shipping mini fan, and several empty instant-noodle cups piled up on a second-hand desk bought from Xianyu.
A cheap wooden phone stand held up Huaxin's tablet — bought eighth-hand — and a Big Rice Phone with half its screen shattered.
The tablet was playing her favorite anime, yet the anxious Huaxin wasn't in the mood at all.
Scrolling the mouse wheel all the way down the webpage again, the girl leaned back on the squeaky chair and let out a heavy sigh.
"Will doing that too much cause gender change?"
"What should I do if my 'little buddy' runs away from home?"
"Is it normal to wake up as a girl?"
"How can I join a super-mysterious paranormal investigation group?"
"Do supernatural phenomena really exist?"
"How many stars of monsters should I tribute to summon God via Synchro Summon?"
One overlapping web page after another filled the screen. Expression dead to the world, Huaxin placed her hand on the slime toy.
She unconsciously squeezed it.
(Soft… 🤤 The feel is so good…)
Then she suddenly pulled her hand away as if shocked by electricity, her face flushing visibly.
"Hua… Hua… Huaxin…"
"What have you done?!"
With a furious look, the girl stood up. The slime bounced up and down with the motion.
Her fists clenched.
Then she angrily… got angry.
But she had to admit — touching herself now felt completely different from touching a man's chest.
Sigh…
The shirt that used to feel a bit tight was now loose and big.
Silently tidying her oversized T-shirt, Huaxin sat down again and let her fingers fly across a keyboard labeled Qinghua Tongfang.
"Girls'… growth really has no limits…"
Bang!
She smashed the delete key.
"What am I even doing?"
Huaxin buried her head in her hands, looking completely defeated.
Her ID card still listed her gender as male. Household registration too…
So why was she the only thing that changed?
Since whatever supernatural force didn't change those, that must mean she turned into this because her "little buddy" couldn't stand it and ran away.
"Ugh…"
She grabbed her hair, unable to accept reality.
Why would something that only happens in novels appear in her life?!
It's not like she found some mysterious rock, or weird card, or made a wish to become a cute girl!
She was just doing what every man does!
😭😭😭
"My brother… 👬…"
What should she do now?
The internet only told her she had a terminal illness or delusional disorder — completely useless.
"It's over…"
"I'm still a virgin! 😭"
Nineteen years without even holding a girl's hand, never experiencing the romantic things she always longed for.
Well… with her current look, it's not like anyone would like her anyway.
She laughed at herself.
She was like a sewer rat, only able to peek at other people's lives.
Slumped in the chair, becoming a cute girl somehow didn't feel as unacceptable as before.
The mini fan blew on her, making her hair sway gently. Huaxin reached out and tucked her hair behind her ear like girls do in videos and anime.
"So this is what long hair is like…"
She nodded.
…
No different from short hair. 🙃
"What do I do what do I do what do I do what do I do…"
Defeated, she threw her legs up on the desk and completely gave up.
She should first organize the situation.
1. She did it four times last night.
2. Today, her "little buddy" is gone.
3. She has no idea.
Done analyzing. Obvious conclusion: a pure divine miracle.
Wait… miracle?…
"System!"
"Main God!"
"..."
Huaxin suddenly stood serious and shouted loudly — but nothing happened.
Haha, she's totally doomed.
Her head tilted, she gave up completely.
In this world where animals aren't even allowed to become spirits, five whole hours had already passed.
No progress.
No hope of turning back.
Wait! Turning back…
A blind spot! You discovered it, Watson!
Huaxin suddenly perked up. A bold idea emerged in her mind.
She looked at the pair of fair, straight legs in her vision — and the cute little feet crossed together like sweet ice cream cones…
She reached out to touch.
Smooth skin, impossible to resist.
Gulp.
She swallowed.
If such perfect legs appeared in front of her before, she would've gone in to lick without hesitation.
Too bad they were hers.
Putting her legs down, she slid the chair back to the computer.
Typing rapidly, she opened the most "effective" place for help — Tieba.
Search: "Transform and marry novels bar."
Discussion thread:
"If you found yourself turning into a cute girl the day after you did it four times, what would you do?"
Click post.
Sigh…
Does it really have to come to this…
Replies would take time, so she had to test her theory first.
Since she turned into a girl because she did it four times…
Then what if she does it four more times now?
"I might actually be a genius 🤩" she smiled proudly.
She checked the curtains, tissues ready near the bed like always — ready to clean up after the battle.
Placing a pillow behind her back, the soft touch eased her heart somewhat.
It's fine…
She'd done this plenty of times before. It was just… a different method now.
Make it trendy first…
Huaxin took a deep breath. Determined and curious, she removed her boxer shorts.
Hiss…
Can't see the other side huh.
But… the house layout was indeed her type.
Her mouth twitched. When something you like appears on your own body — it's an indescribable feeling.
Despair and joy mixed together.
Happiness and sadness intertwined.
Calmly, she picked up her phone and snapped a picture with a click.
Zooming in carefully…
Oh.
💗🖍️⚪🐯
Too much.
Huaxin puffed her chest twice, took a deep breath as she glared at the picture.
Why…
Why so perfect?
Closing her eyes, she tremblingly extended her right index finger.
Her heartbeat raced out of control.
"Ugh! 💗"
What kind of feeling was that?!
Oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no—
"Ha…" She let out a shaking breath. Her eyes seemed to glisten with a misty sheen.
"Still… still three times left."
Surely — surely she could turn back.
Right?
