"All right, you can open your eyes now. Put your shoes on yourself!"
Xiao Yu handed him a pair of canvas shoes.
Although a business suit paired with canvas shoes looked strange, there was no time to worry about that.
Lu Xing opened his eyes, took the shoes, sat on the shoe bench, and bent down to put them on.
Xiao Yu clearly saw the shape around "her" chest being flattened. The words reached her lips, then she swallowed them back down.
Even more embarrassing things had happened when he changed bras earlier. This scene was nothing by comparison.
He must have felt her body too. His indifferent expression was probably just deliberate avoidance.
After getting dressed, Lu Xing walked over to the mirror and saw a rich and beautiful female CEO from the business world reflected in it.
Her proud, confident bearing, exquisite features, height of over five foot nine, and the air of wealth surrounding her made her look even more striking and radiant.
"Sure enough, I'm beautiful!"
Lu Xing praised her generously.
Xiao Yu stood beside him and smiled faintly. "Thank you. You're handsome too."
It had originally been just a polite remark, but when Xiao Yu looked at "herself" in the mirror, she realized Lu Xing was indeed quite good-looking. He was half a head taller than her, lean but powerfully built, with well-defined arm muscles. She vaguely remembered that when she had been shirtless that morning, there had been several muscles on her abdomen too...
"Why are you thanking me? I said I'm beautiful!"
Lu Xing tilted his head from side to side at the mirror. Perhaps because they were "on the same screen," the sense of incongruity was not as strong.
Xiao Yu huffed and headed outside. "Come on. There are some things I need to go over with you!"
"What things?"
"About my work today."
"I can cooperate with you, but let me make this clear: I studied computer science. Other than fixing computers, I don't know how to do anything!"
"Perfect. I have a computer that needs fixing."
"Huh?"
"Pfft."
Having successfully won one back, Xiao Yu laughed aloud. She walked to the railing and called down to the two people waiting in the first-floor living room, "Prepare the documents and materials President Xiao asked you to get ready yesterday, then bring them upstairs later. Also, Secretary Sun, notify the company that this afternoon's patent litigation meeting has been postponed until tomorrow. President Xiao won't be going to the office today."
The secretary and assistant looked completely baffled. Only after Lu Xing appeared and told them to do it did the two finally react and get to work.
"President Xiao isn't going to work today?"
"Could she be spending... the whole day at home with her young boyfriend?"
The two could not help whispering to each other. President Xiao was far too strange today.
Upstairs.
Xiao Yu turned to look at Lu Xing, seemingly wanting to say something but stopping herself.
Lu Xing asked her, "So I have to stay here all day?"
"Where else do you want to go? You're using my body right now."
"Forget it. Hurry up and arrange your work!"
Lu Xing had originally planned to look for some part-time work during the National Day holiday, but the sudden body-swapping game had disrupted his plans and left him unable to make money.
The second-floor living room soon fell quiet.
They each used their own phones to go online. The difference was that Lu Xing watched short videos while Xiao Yu assigned work in the company group chat.
Lu Xing knew she did not want to learn about his social connections, so he did not ask about her work either. Whenever he needed to make a call, he simply said whatever she told him to say. Director Li, Lawyer Zhang, close friends—he asked about none of them.
Fortunately, Xiao Yu's handwriting remained her own, so Lu Xing did not need to sign anything for her.
At noon.
Xiao Yu, who had been working in the study, felt hungry again. She left the room intending to ask Lu Xing out for a good meal as compensation for cooperating with her work today.
But when she reached the living room, she saw Lu Xing lounging in a rocking chair with one leg crossed over the other, his shoes kicked off, happily watching short videos and laughing.
Xiao Yu tried hard to stay calm and hypnotized herself: This completely undignified person was not her. He was Lu Xing!
"Need to make another call?"
Lu Xing spotted her.
Xiao Yu said flatly, "I'm hungry. Call the secretary and order takeout."
"Sure. What do you want to eat?"
"Anything. Just something light."
"Are you sure you like light food now?"
"..."
In the end, they each ordered what they liked. If the flavors did not suit them, they could swap meals.
While eating, Xiao Yu said to him, "We'll switch back this afternoon?"
"Probably."
"I've thought about it seriously."
As Xiao Yu spoke, she met Lu Xing's gaze, then looked slightly away. "If we never switch again afterward, then everything will be fine. We can just pretend none of this ever happened."
Lu Xing nodded and asked, "What if we switch again?"
Xiao Yu hesitated for a while before answering, "Then my original life will be completely changed because of this!"
Lu Xing smiled and told her, "Don't worry. If there's a way to stop it, I'll definitely cooperate with you and end the swapping."
Xiao Yu smiled. "It isn't entirely a bad thing."
Perhaps feeling that her words could be misunderstood, she added, "You can go to the Future World. Maybe you can bring back technology beyond this era. If you plan to start a company, I can lend you some money."
"Why not invest in me?" Lu Xing asked.
Xiao Yu smiled without answering, changing the subject instead. "You can write my phone number on that piece of paper. When they travel over, they can call me for help. Mainly because I'm curious what other worlds are really like too."
"Thanks. That'll save me a whole lot of trouble!"
Lu Xing said with a smile.
Xiao Yu lowered her head and ate. Even in a different body, she still preferred lightly flavored food. Strangely enough, she could eat oily, spicy food now too.
"There were originally some other things I wanted to discuss with you, but it's still too early. We can talk about them next time if we switch again."
Xiao Yu spoke while eating.
Lu Xing guessed what she wanted to say and merely nodded.
That afternoon.
Lu Xing, who had been browsing forums, closed his eyes. When he opened them again, a desk stood before him, piled with documents Secretary Sun had brought over.
"Lu Xing! We switched back!"
Xiao Yu's startled cry came from the living room. Lu Xing hurried out, and the two nearly collided head-on.
"We switched back!" Xiao Yu's eyes were filled with joy.
Lu Xing smiled and nodded. For the first time, he saw himself from a third-person perspective—no, he saw Xiao Yu, this stunning beauty. It gave him a different feeling from when he had inhabited her body.
Xiao Yu was tall, with a well-proportioned figure and delicate features. Her eyes were bright and clear, and she possessed a very distinctive temperament—radiant and dignified, somewhat like the kind of GuoTaiMinAn face people talked about in short videos. Her aura was similar too.
And besides—
"Hmph! What are you looking at?"
Xiao Yu covered her chest, glared fiercely at him, turned around, and fastened her shirt buttons.
Lu Xing looked up at the sky and said innocently, "You can't blame me. Your clothes were too tight. When I went to the bathroom earlier, I loosened them a little. Don't worry, I had my eyes closed!"
Yes, Xiao Yu, with her GuoTaiMinAn face, was actually quite well-endowed, on par with that Cold Ice Fairy.
As for who was bigger, Lu Xing had not looked carefully, much less compared them with his own hands. He was a model young man, after all.
"Stop talking!"
Xiao Yu rubbed her temples. "Are you going back to school, or staying at a nearby hotel? I'll book you a room." She added, "I'm going home tonight, so I won't be here. If you want to stay, you can use the first-floor guest room."
After spending the day together, the relationship between her and Lu Xing had become something neither of them could clearly define.
It definitely was not a romantic relationship, nor were they friends, but they were not strangers either. Yet Lu Xing could stay in her house, because their relationship was unusual.
What exactly was their relationship... all that could be said was that it was a body-swapping relationship, one of a kind—the other three girls were from other worlds, so it did not feel quite the same with them.
"Why would I stay at a hotel? I checked. The subway entrance isn't far downstairs, so I'm heading back."
Like Xiao Yu, Lu Xing did not want to stay for even another minute. He had been trapped here all day. No matter how luxurious the mansion was, he was sick of looking at it!
"Should I have my assistant drive you back?"
"No need!"
Lu Xing waved behind him and quickly left the rich and beautiful woman's mansion worth several hundred million.
It had to be said, being back in his original body felt great. There was no more top-heavy feeling from a heavy chest and large hips. He walked with a spring in his step!
Watching his retreating back, Xiao Yu somehow naturally replaced the image of "herself" she had seen today with Lu Xing himself.
Once it became Lu Xing, his actions—lying in the rocking chair scrolling through his phone, sitting with his legs spread apart, walking, eating, and so on—suddenly seemed far more natural.
That night.
Xiao Yu, who had returned home to live with her parents, received a call.
"Lu Xing?"
"It's me."
"What is it?"
"I have bad news and good news."
Although he was being mysterious, Xiao Yu immediately guessed what he wanted to say. The heart that had hung in suspense all day finally dropped at that moment—no, it had died completely.
Her life from now on would be completely changed!
