When Xia Yan realized something was wrong, he had already guessed the terrifying truth.

Whether it's changes in one's own body, the gender one clearly chose seen on their phone, or the things seen in their social media posts that are completely outside their "memory," everything has been altered by an invisible hand.

Xia Yan, who didn't believe in superstitions at all, also tried to test it out.

Aside from Hua Xin, the only other person she could be relatively close to was her adopted younger sister, who was the only person she could choose besides Hua Xin.

The result was...

When Xia Fen answered the phone, her first words to Xia Yan silenced him:

Hey sis, what's wrong?

Having lost all manners and desire to speak, Xia Yan simply turned off her phone, then lay down on Hua Xin's stinky little bed, blankly staring at the unfamiliar ceiling.

This is tantamount to a death sentence for her.

God or a deity, aliens or supernatural phenomena.

You won.

This was the only thing Xia Yan could say after realizing that he had no way to resist or change the situation.

Now everyone's memories of "Xia Yan" have been altered by this power.

To be precise, it should be all the memories of the male Xia Yan that were replaced with the memories of the beautiful girl Xia Yan now. Almost overnight, all traces of "Xia Yan" in this world were replaced with those of a girl who had existed, instead of the muscular male Xia Yan who had truly lived for more than ten years.

For Xia Yan, there was naturally no worse news than this.

But amidst all the bad news, there was some good news that offered a brief moment of comfort.

Fortunately, Hua Xin still remembers her true self.

It's unclear whether his presence was too low because Hua Xin had been staying in the Little Black all the time, or whether the invisible hand had accidentally replaced his memories, which is why Hua Xin still remembered him.

But no matter what, Hua Xin is probably the only person she can confide in right now.

It wasn't just because he was the only one who remembered him now, but also because their brotherhood of so many years allowed Xia Yan to feel at ease temporarily escaping the world here.

It's hard to imagine that the once cheerful and outgoing guy has now become a shut-in who stays at home playing games all day, just like Hua Xin.

However, whenever Xia Yan interacts with others, he unconsciously resists the kind of "first impression you must be a beautiful girl" that they give him, while Xia Yan himself still has the incongruity of a "macho man" soul.

Ultimately, this led to Xia Yan giving up.

After quickly packing what I needed at home, I suppressed the inexplicable shyness in my heart.

She eventually succumbed to reality and went into a women's clothing store to buy the necessary underwear.

To be honest, after encountering this kind of thing, Xia Yan was determined to die and spent the rest of his life wearing only boxer shorts and going shirtless at home like when he was a boy, in order to express his resistance.

It's like a vegetarian holding a banner in the street, watching passersby walk by with bags of Original Recipe Chicken bought on Crazy Thursday, smelling the aroma of fried chicken, while the vegetarian can do nothing but hold the banner.

A sense of powerlessness.

What can you do if you have to wear men's clothes?

If it can't be changed back, it can't be changed back.

But after a few inconveniences, Xia Yan got over it.

That's all.

Girls are girls, that's fine.

In a world where everyone remembers Xia Yan as a girl, what else can she say?

She should go to the hospital to check if she has suddenly awakened a second personality or developed schizophrenia, since she still believes she is a man.

Oh, but thankfully Hua Xin still remembered this incident. She reassured Xia Yan that she wasn't mentally unstable before giving up, otherwise she really would have had to go to the hospital to get her mental health checked.

With two full months until the start of university, and having experienced this absurdly unresponsive timeframe Xia Yan lost all interest in working to earn money or traveling, so she simply moved into Hua Xin's house.

Although Hua Xin's Little Black was a bit small, it was small but complete in every way.

The kitchen, bathroom, living room, and shower are all fully equipped, so you can simply drop off your luggage and move in.

As for the question of where to sleep when there's only one bed Xia Yan solved it in a very generous way.

We've been brothers for so many years, it's not unusual for us to sleep in the same bed at night.

After a day of losing ten ranked matches in a row, it was getting late.

The summer evening breeze gently blew into the room through the window, calming the restlessness caused by the high temperature.

Due to Hua Xin's severe internet addiction and his desire to earn money through proxy gaming, he sat at the foot of the bed, staring blankly at the faint light emanating from the computer screen. Because the lights were off, the bedroom was very dark.

Next to him was Xia Yan's laptop, but it was shut down after he finished playing the game. Xia Yan didn't continue playing on the laptop; instead, he lay on the bed, hugging a pillow and watching videos.

The only sounds in the bedroom were Hua Xin constantly pressing the keyboard and clicking the mouse.

A young boy and girl dressed very little and completely unguarded in the same bedroom—this could only be the case of a young couple experiencing their first love, or childhood sweethearts who are very close.

After finishing the game in front of him, Hua Xin slowly stretched. According to his usual habit, he should now go to the kitchen to find a pack of instant noodles to fill his stomach.

But now there's one more person in the family.

As Hua Xin turned her head slightly, intending to ask Xia Yan if he wanted to eat instant noodles, she swallowed back the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

The faint light from the still-flickering phone slowly illuminated Xia Yan's fair profile. Her slender arms were wrapped around a pillow, her slightly messy long hair was scattered haphazardly on the pillow, and she was breathing evenly.

It seems she fell asleep while scrolling through her phone.

Similar to herself, Xia Yan was also dressed in a short-sleeved shirt and shorts. Even in the dim light, the graceful curves of her legs were visible, not to mention her pale pink feet...

After only a brief pause, Hua Xin quickly blushed and looked away.

Brothers, brothers, brothers!

They are brothers! They are best friends! They are sworn brothers!

Hua Xin silently recited "Amitabha" a few times in her heart in an attempt to wash away the fact that she had killed hundreds of millions of lives. She then spread out the small blanket that she had folded to the side and slowly covered Xia Yan with it.

He quietly turned off the computer and lay down on the other side of the bed.

For some reason, Hua Xin, who usually falls asleep as soon as she gets into bed, couldn't fall asleep for a long time after closing her eyes.

Then, perhaps lost in his own thoughts, he closed his eyes and grinned.

Sharing a bed and pillow with someone of the opposite sex?...

Does this mean that the hardest part of the bucket list has been completed?

Wrong...

Xia Yan was originally a boy. Although her body is now female, her soul is male. But in the end, if we return to reality, she is probably still a girl.

Which part of a person, the soul or the body, has a more prominent presence?

Soul?

Body?

Unusually lost in philosophical contemplation, Hua Xin slowly drifted off to sleep, listening to the even breathing of the girl beside her.

In his dream, he dreamed of something very interesting.
