Extra: If Xia Yan Became a Girl, Part 4
"First of all, this is not a dream."
"If this is a dream, then how can you prove that I am not dreaming while you are?"
"It's obviously impossible for the two of us to be in the same dream, and it's daytime now, not time to dream yet."
Hua Xin covered her head and squatted in the corner, analyzing the situation very honestly and seriously. Her expression was completely different from when she had spoken to Xia Yan earlier.
For a socially awkward nerd, the physical reality of punches landing was far more lethal than Xia Yan's disdainful look, which seemed to be directed at trash.
Hua Xin didn't actually see the kind of "good brother turns into a beautiful girl falling from the sky and comes to my house" scenario that only happens in novels and anime, and then suddenly felt the need to do something that boys and girls could do together.
Over the years, only Xia Yan has been there to comfort and support him.
It's fair to say that without Xia Yan, he wouldn't even have anyone to post Tangren's short videos on.
He had just witnessed this scene and didn't know how to express his dissuasion to Xia Yan not to jump off the building. However, in his haste, Hua Xin's language system, which she hadn't been able to practice for a long time, suddenly crashed, leaving her speechless for a moment.
That's why the awkward scene just now happened.
"But if it wasn't a dream, why would this happen...?"
Xia Yan, looking rather resigned, covered his face with one hand and muttered to himself.
She knew she couldn't be dreaming, otherwise the few experimental touches she had just made in the bathroom at home wouldn't have felt so real...
Hua Xin lifted her bangs, which hadn't been trimmed in a long time, and secretly glanced at Xia Yan, who was deep in thought. A look of dazedness flashed across her eyes.
I remember the last time I saw Xia Yan was the last time.
It goes back even to three or four years ago.
However, Xia Yan back then didn't look like the beautiful young girl he is now. Instead, he already had the makings of a handsome young man, the kind of "other people's child" that most people talk about.
He was just someone no one cared for or loved.
Although they met by chance, Xia Yan has since become noticeably more mature and resilient, and is now able to live a good life even on her own.
He's different.
He didn't even go to high school, and studied at home until recently when he took the college entrance exam. In the past three years, he has only left home a few times.
Hua Xin just didn't want to cause Xia Yan any trouble.
That's why she often avoids Xia Yan's invitations to go out.
He thought Xia Yan had so many friends that he no longer needed Xia Yan's presence, and that he was just an insignificant person to Xia Yan.
But if you think about it carefully...
If Xia Yan truly holds such a position in her heart, then why did she come to her first after this incident, instead of seeking out someone else?
Thinking of this, Hua Xin couldn't help but feel a little moved.
So, in Xia Yan's heart, he was actually a good brother?...
Hua Xin, who was having some difficulty controlling her emotions, couldn't help but have tears welling up in her eyes.
"I said... it's not like this happened to you..."
"Why are you crying?!"
Seeing this, Xia Yan hurriedly and confusedly moved to the foot of the bed. Looking at Hua Xin, who was losing small pearls, she didn't know what to say for a moment.
Why does this scene make it seem like the roles have been reversed?
Shouldn't she be the one crying?!
After all, who could remain calm and unresponsive when something like this happens?!
A lump formed in her throat, and a feeling of despair began to grow in Xia Yan's young heart. The sense of powerlessness that she might have to live the rest of her life in this way, under her current identity, overwhelmed her.
Why not be a real man instead of turning into a cute girl?
Tears also filled Xia Yan's eyes, easily streaming down the beautiful girl's fair cheeks. For a moment, both Hua Xin and Xia Yan, these two good brothers, were silently weeping, each with their own distinct feelings.
The scene was spectacular.
(Anyone who didn't know better might think there had been a murder or that the instant noodles were missing the seasoning packet.)
Evening.
Hua Xin, who possesses excellent culinary skills, is busy in the kitchen, constantly adding seasonings to the pot to enrich the ingredients with a variety of trace elements and a unique, mixed flavor.
Hua Xin naturally extended the highest level of courtesy to Xia Yan upon his arrival.
I used the precious pork ribs that I had been saving in the refrigerator for almost half a year, and the two eggs that I would never eat myself, to make steamed egg custard.
Even when Hua Xin celebrated her own birthday, she never ate such a lavish meal.
Seeing the aroma wafting from the pot, Hua Xin's pale face broke into a faint smile.
Nothing is more joyful than reuniting with your brothers and enjoying a delicious meal together.
Although this brother may have changed gender.
As Xia Yan continued to search for a way to redeem himself inside the house, he gradually realized the seriousness of the problem.
With a "what's the use" attitude, Xia Yan searched for related events on various platforms, but found nothing.
Fortunately, I finally found a similar question on a Tieba:
"What would you do if you found yourself transformed into a beautiful girl the day after you slept four times?..."
Although the title suggests it's just a fantasy post, Xia Yan carefully examined the replies and realized it was actually a nonsensical post.
Who would experiment with self-fertilization after their child becomes a beautiful girl?...
Xia Yan was completely speechless.
But on second thought, this kind of thing probably won't have any results. After all, if such a supernatural phenomenon really happened, it would probably either develop quietly in hiding or be discovered and taken away for dissection.
For something like this to happen out of nowhere, either aliens have come or she's dreaming.
But the option of dreaming is ruled out, meaning that aliens modified her body to make her like this.
Thinking about this, Xia Yan, who was somewhat lost in thought, once again gave up on himself.
I accidentally tapped the "Me" screen in the software.
The above are all settings-related questions, such as options for profile picture, nickname, age, gender, etc.
Etc.
Xia Yan's eyes suddenly narrowed.
Gender???
The gender option on the phone screen is clearly "female".
Xia Yan suddenly checked her other apps and found that the options that should have been "male" had all been changed to "female".
Then, as if she had thought of something, she took a deep breath and slowly opened her WeChat Moments.
The phone fell onto the bed with a "thud".
The photos that should have been of her traveling in her WeChat Moments have suddenly been replaced by her current appearance.
It's a girl named Xia Yan.
Instead of boys.
