Fellow Castaways

After Xiao Yu finished tidying her clothes and came out, Lu Xing had already started eating. Changing clothes would have to wait.

"Come eat with me. Oh, you're treating me to this meal—you're paying!"

Lu Xing said with a smile.

Xiao Yu said nothing. Facing "herself," she still felt somewhat uncomfortable.

But she really was hungry.

After sitting down, she picked up her chopsticks and took a crystal dumpling. Xiao Yu ate slowly. Only after finishing one did she take out the sheet of paper and look at him. "What did you mean when you said humans were controlled by artificial intelligence?"

"It's a long story. Simply put, I traveled to the Future World!"

Lu Xing told her about Jiang Xuannv. Xiao Yu frowned throughout, thinking carefully for a while before looking at her current appearance and sighing. "If I hadn't experienced it myself, I definitely wouldn't believe you!"

Lu Xing laughed.

Xiao Yu asked curiously, "What was the Virtual World of the future like?"

"It's hard to explain."

Lu Xing thought about it before answering, "I was shocked at the time. I thought I'd gone to a fairy-tale world. Everything in the Virtual World was extremely clean, but thinking back now, a world that was too clean and orderly actually felt strange."

"Maybe you just weren't used to it," Xiao Yu said. "Our era doesn't have a Virtual World. Brainwave applications are still only at the laboratory stage, let alone blocking human sensory perception and making people fall into a Virtual World."

"Fall is the perfect word!" Lu Xing said with a laugh.

Xiao Yu smiled, then asked a few more questions about artificial intelligence. Only after confirming that artificial intelligence from the Future World would not invade did she change the subject.

When she learned that Lu Xing had also traveled into the bodies of two other girls, her expression became strange.

"What's wrong?"

"What did it feel like to become a Noble Lady?"

After glancing down at his broad chest, Xiao Yu suppressed a laugh as she asked.

A grown man like him becoming a delicate Duchess was strange just to imagine.

"..."

Lu Xing rolled his eyes at her and pointed at his chest. "Why don't you ask what it felt like for me to become a rich and beautiful woman?"

"Thank you for the compliment."

Xiao Yu spoke politely and picked up another soup dumpling.

Watching her eat one after another, Lu Xing grew a little greedy. He picked up a bamboo skewer and took a piece of fruit, sighing. "This is the most luxurious breakfast I've ever had. Too bad your appetite is so small—I'm full after only a few bites!"

Only then did Xiao Yu realize that she had just eaten with an excellent appetite: three crystal dumplings, a serving of shrimp and rice porridge, six soup dumplings, and an entire glass of milk.

"Is this the difference between men and women? I've eaten so much, yet I still feel like I could eat more."

Xiao Yu gazed at her body and spoke quietly.

Lu Xing burst out laughing and pushed the remaining breakfast toward her. "Go ahead and eat. It's food your own mouth has already eaten, so you won't mind it, right?"

"Stop talking. I-I need time to get used to this!"

Xiao Yu's expression was a sight to behold.

In other words, they were "kissing" at every moment, with each other's taste still in their mouths...

Lu Xing did not mind much. Xiao Yu was such a beautiful woman; although she was older than him, he was hardly losing out.

A little while later.

"How did you eat so much?"

Xiao Yu was finally full. She gently wiped her mouth with a tissue and tossed it into the wastebasket, every movement elegant. But to Lu Xing... seeing her perform those actions with his body was wildly jarring!

Seeing his gaze, Xiao Yu quickly realized it too and stared at him. "Don't sit like that. Keep your legs together. Don't sit with them spread so carelessly!"

Lu Xing was currently wearing her nightgown with her body, sitting there with his pale, slender legs spread wide. Xiao Yu had never seen herself like this before; she almost found herself unfamiliar!

"...Like this?"

Lu Xing tried sitting like a girl, bringing his legs together and angling them to one side.

"Mhm, that looks much better."

Xiao Yu nodded in satisfaction.

Lu Xing's mouth twitched. He quickly abandoned the feminine pose and said, "You may enjoy looking at it, but I'm uncomfortable. I'm a grown man, and sitting like a little girl feels so awkward."

Little girl?

For some reason, twenty-nine-year-old Xiao Yu felt secretly pleased. She smiled at him. "What's the big deal about adjusting your posture? The etiquette of a medieval Noble Lady was much more cumbersome, yet you adapted to that too, didn't you? You wore dresses over there as well, right?"

This time, it was Lu Xing whose expression became a sight to behold, making Xiao Yu laugh nonstop.

She covered her mouth while laughing and turned her head aside. It was a reserved, ladylike laugh. If she herself had done it, there would have been no problem; such an expression would have been even more pleasing on a beautiful woman.

But!

"Stop laughing. You're making me want to hit someone!"

Lu Xing hurriedly raised a hand to stop her. He could not bear to watch any longer.

Seeing his own body make such effeminate movements made him uncomfortable all over!

Xiao Yu held back her laughter. Using a man's body was also a rare and novel experience—using it in the literal sense.

"Come on. I'll change your clothes."

After resting for a while after breakfast, Xiao Yu stood up and led her own body—that was, Lu Xing—into the dressing room inside the bedroom.

"Your dressing room is huge."

Lu Xing said this while looking around. This rich and beautiful woman lived in a Large Flat spanning several hundred square meters, and even her dressing room was nearly bigger than his dormitory. The decoration materials were exquisitely chosen, though Lu Xing could not recognize any of them.

Xiao Yu smiled faintly and pressed a button on the wall. A wardrobe on one side slowly opened, revealing another changing room inside.

"?"

Lu Xing gave her a stunned and puzzled look.

Xiao Yu smiled. "The outer one is for clothes in season. The one inside is for off-season clothes."

Lu Xing could only feel envy. He did not understand the world of the wealthy.

Xiao Yu picked out clothes for him.

Seeing dress after dress, formal gown after formal gown, and women's long shirts inside, Lu Xing hurriedly said, "Pick something masculine!"

"Haven't you worn dresses before?"

"That was out of necessity. Don't you think it's strange for you to wear men's clothes?"

"Fine, but I don't have any men's clothing. I—I mean, you—can tell the secretary to buy some."

"...Forget it. I'll take this one."

Lu Xing could not bear to spend money, even if it was not his money.

He chose a suit, even though it was a women's suit.

Xiao Yu did not object. She only said, "I wear this suit for more formal business occasions. It needs to be paired with high heels, but you definitely won't want to wear them."

"Of course not!"

"Then close your eyes and come over here with me. There are no mirrors here."

"Fine, whatever."

Lu Xing spread his arms, closed his eyes, and stood in place while she did as she pleased.

Very soon, Xiao Yu untied the nightgown on him. Against her jade-white skin, the silky nightgown slipped down, catching briefly at the chest.

Lu Xing remained calm. Although the description sounded strange, he tried hard to keep his heart as still as water.

But Xiao Yu, standing before him, blushed as if she were the one standing naked.

Uh, in fact, she was. Though Lu Xing occupied the body in spirit, it was still her body, and she could see herself naked as well.

Even more irritatingly, she had a great figure. When she had Lu Xing lift his foot, everything swayed with the slightest movement. She could practically guarantee that Lu Xing had felt it!

What left her even more helpless was that, because he had to put on a bra, she had to make Lu Xing bend down and use her hands to stuff her ample breasts into it.

"Hahaha!"

Lu Xing suddenly laughed, clamping both hands under his armpits.

"What are you doing? Don't move!" Xiao Yu's face was red. With his arms pulled together, it was practically... a deep valley.

"And you blame me? You touched the ticklish spot on your own body. How was I supposed to know you were so ticklish!"

"..."

Oh no, he even knew her weakness? Her armpits were the most ticklish part of her body.

Inside this not-so-large dressing room, Xiao Yu was already going crazy. What kind of absurd situation was this? She was dressing herself, tickling her own body, yet another man was the one who felt ticklish!

Did heaven think the first half of her life had gone too smoothly, so it was punishing her by making her face such an embarrassing situation?

Fortunately, fortunately, Lu Xing had to wear dresses in other worlds too. It was equally embarrassing for him.

Thinking that she and he were fellow castaways, Xiao Yu unexpectedly felt much better. She quickly dressed herself—don't ask why she was not dressing Lu Xing, because that would sound far too strange!!!
