Lu Xing truly had no way to deal with that Fairy. They were separated by two worlds, and she was the aloof, reserved type who rarely interacted with others.
Xiao Yu was smiling, but when she thought of something, she hurriedly urged him, "Think of a solution already. I don't want to wake up in a psychiatric hospital the next time I become you!"
"It's not that exaggerated. I'll communicate with her more next time. Worst case, I'll take a day off."
Lu Xing said that, but he was actually unsure.
Fairies were no ordinary people. They could not be judged by common sense.
After chatting for a while, Xiao Yu said goodbye and hurried back to the company to work overtime, just in case she really had to attend class tomorrow.
When Lu Xing returned to the dorm, the system's task completion notification finally arrived:
"Newbie Experience Task One completed. Total rating: 72. Exceeded expectations. Reward: 1,200 EXP."
Lu Xing had realized that having a man play a Noble Lady was far easier than having a human play an intelligent robot.
He glanced at his personal panel. His EXP had reached 1,800. He could spend 1,000 points to reach Level 2, but tomorrow he would only be taking Xiao Yu's place at work. Lu Xing felt he could still handle it.
He would save it for now and decide after completing another round of tasks.
"Sixth Brother's back?"
"Sixth Brother, what happened? I heard you got schizophrenia. Is that for real? That's freaking awesome!"
The other two people in the dorm had returned to campus from home. When they saw Lu Xing, they immediately started shouting, attracting classmates from the neighboring dorms to come watch as well.
They simply did not believe that Lu Xing, whom they had lived with for two years, could have schizophrenia!
Therefore, in the eyes of these students, schizophrenia was an incredibly badass condition, practically equivalent to having a second personality—cool beyond measure.
Now that they saw Lu Xing was perfectly fine, there was even less reason to worry about him.
"I've got good news and bad news for you!"
Lu Xing said.
"What's the good news?"
"The good news is that I'm moving out."
"Fuck, how is that good news? We won't even have enough people to game together. Why are you suddenly moving out? What's the bad news?"
"The bad news is that I probably, really, actually do have schizophrenia!"
"I... fuck?!"
A group of third-year computer science guys stood there with their mouths hanging open. A guy from the neighboring dorm snickered and asked, "Sixth Brother, is your second personality Brother Xun?"
"Get lost!"
Lu Xing laughed as he entered the dorm room.
His moving out was already a done deal. With Xiao Yu generously footing the bill, he did not need to worry about rent.
What he was considering was whether Jiang Xuannv and the others—especially Cold Ice Fairy—could successfully walk back to school from the rental apartment.
There was no need to mention Cold Ice Fairy. She was practically a celestial Fairy untouched by the mortal world, proud and detached by nature, unwilling to ask others for help. It would be difficult even to teach her.
Then there was Jiang Xuannv. Though she was a girl from the Future World, she had lived in the Virtual World and had never seen the bustling streets of a modern city. She would not know how to take the bus, read traffic lights, or scan a shared bike.
Anne was a little angel with her social skills maxed out. She definitely would not have any trouble coming to school for class.
That night, unable to think of any good solution, Lu Xing gradually fell asleep.
At the same time.
At Jiangbei No. 1 Community, Xiao Yu lay down in the top-floor duplex but tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
First, she kept thinking about tomorrow. If she did not sleep tonight, could she avoid switching?
Second, she was still wearing a bra.
Although both her nightgown and bra were high-end designer brands, and her mattress was a million-yuan handmade Hästens custom piece—soft, comfortable, and supportive—
She had always taken off her bra to sleep, ever since childhood. She even took it off for afternoon naps. Yet this time, she had to sleep in the bra she would wear to work tomorrow...
Xiao Yu felt uncomfortable everywhere. Sleeping on her side, on her back, or on her stomach all felt wrong.
"...Sigh!"
With her hair in a mess, Xiao Yu sat up, closed her eyes, lifted her nightgown over her head and tossed it aside. She reached both hands behind her back, unfastened the clasp with a click, and threw the bra, still carrying her body heat, onto the bedside table without even looking at it.
Then, giving up completely, she lay facedown on the bed. Her nightgown fell to the floor, revealing her snow-white, graceful shoulder blades and slender, fair waist.
Fine, let him see!
It's not like he hasn't seen it before!
That afternoon, when he went to the bathroom, I was even the one who helped him wipe with tissues. Changing clothes is nothing compared to that!
After coming to terms with it—or rather, after giving up on treatment—Xiao Yu relaxed considerably and quickly fell asleep.
Who knew how much time passed.
When she groggily opened her eyes again, she found the mattress beneath her extremely hard. The sensations coming from every part of her body were completely different from usual, especially around her pants.
It was as if a fire dragon were roaring toward the sky.
Xiao Yu woke up at once!
"Lu Xing!"
She abruptly sat up, pulled open the mosquito net, and saw the same three mosquito nets—the three roommates in Lu Xing's dorm!
"So we switched again!"
Xiao Yu gave up struggling. She fumbled around on Lu Xing's bed, found his phone, unlocked it, and called him.
As soon as Lu Xing picked up, she immediately hung up. After all, people were still sleeping in the dorm.
The two of them tacitly used WeChat to communicate.
"Awake?"
"Just woke up. Let me ask you something—what do I do about down there?"
"? What about down there?"
Having switched from the dorm's hard wooden bed to a soft, comfortable king-size bed, Lu Xing was currently enjoying the luxurious mattress in a Rich and Beautiful Woman's home. Wealth really was great—even the mattress was different.
No matter how he turned, the mattress perfectly supported him. It was incredibly springy too; a single movement of his waist made it bounce back several times.
"..."
Xiao Yu explained her current predicament—the thing men encountered in the morning.
No matter how thick-skinned she was, her face still flushed bright red when confronted with something like this.
"...I get it! Hahahaha!"
Lu Xing laughed out loud, and Xiao Yu sent him a string of furious emojis.
"Cough, cough. Generally speaking, just go to the bathroom. Of course, you definitely don't want to do that, so don't think about women—especially pretty women. The more you think about them, the less it'll go down."
He should not have said it. The moment he did, Xiao Yu immediately thought of several of her beautiful classmates and close friends, all fashionably dressed and surrounded by plenty of pursuing men.
Unexpectedly, after thinking of them, it gradually got better instead.
She carefully got out of bed and went outside to call Lu Xing.
The first thing she said was, "I'm moving out!"
Otherwise, she would die of embarrassment!
Even though she was using Lu Xing's body, and Lu Xing would be the one embarrassing himself in everyone else's eyes, she still could not get used to it!
"Okay."
Lu Xing agreed. "Find Director Li's WeChat and ask her how to write the application. Just write one and hand it directly to her."
Xiao Yu nodded slightly. After confirming today's classes with him, she smiled and said, "As for my work, I already gave my secretary instructions yesterday. Listen to the secretary. Also, I previously scheduled three entrepreneurs to come to my company today. Host them as you see fit, and help me choose the startup most worth investing in."
Lu Xing had been about to casually agree, but then he suddenly remembered that the fourth Newbie Experience Task was to sign a contract while acting as Xiao Yu.
Could Xiao Yu's words be the system's evaluation criteria?
