Extra: If Xia Yan Became a Girl, Part 8

I said...

"Why do you put Thirteen Spices in every dish you make, Prison Flower?"

Xia Yan forced himself to put down the strangely flavored food in his mouth, unable to bear wasting it, and then directly questioned Hua Xin, who was sitting opposite him eating heartily.

Since moving into Hua Xin's house, Xia Yan has essentially settled there permanently. Staying at Hua Xin's house is practically synonymous with spending long hours playing duo queue with his brothers at an e-sports hotel.

Living alone and having a playmate can obviously alleviate some of the negative emotions brought about by the supernatural phenomenon that happened to you. Playing games and watching anime every day is obviously a very relaxing life.

But this doesn't mean that Xia Yan can follow Hua Xin's strange diet when it comes to eating.

In this short week, Xia Yan has already tasted many of the Hua Xin special breakfasts, lunches, and dinners that are almost identical to the wonderful Masala delicacies from the neighboring Indians.

The dishes are either soups saturated with Thirteen Spices or fried rice with Thirteen Spices soy sauce, and occasionally you can even find leftover fruit scraps in the food.

For example, you might see orange peel in stir-fried meat.

Xia Yan could endure it for a short time if it was just one or two meals.

After repeatedly protesting to Hua Xin, Xia Yan wanted to take on the responsibility of preparing two meals. However, Hua Xin looked at Xia Yan was truly helpless.

Xia Yan didn't want to continue living on instant noodles any longer.

Speechless.

Xia Yan had completely reached her breaking point today.

She wants takeout!!!

"?"

"Isn't it delicious?"

Hua Xin looked up from her rice bowl with a blank expression, staring at the girl in front of her with a livid face.

If it weren't for Hua Xin's still happy expression while eating, Xia Yan would have wondered if his sense of taste had undergone some kind of mutation, causing the same dish to taste different in his mouth.

"I'm asking you, Prison Flower, have you eaten your fill yet?"

Upon hearing this, Hua Xin glanced at the few remaining scraps of food on the table. It seemed that dinner had been made a little less than usual tonight. Although he had finished most of it, his stomach still didn't seem to be feeling full.

"Half full..." he said honestly.

Although staying in the Little Black and not going out doesn't require a lot of exercise to consume the nutrients from food, for Hua Xin, eating is an extremely important thing to maintain her vital signs.

If I don't eat enough, this already skinny shut-in might actually become a shut-in one day while staying up all night.

Previously, Hua Xin would eat only three or four tenths full each day to save money so that he wouldn't feel hungry. But since Xia Yan came to live with them, he started cooking meals for two people.

But Xia Yan is different now. The energy he consumes and his appetite have decreased significantly due to the changes in his body.

So most of the food ended up in Hua Xin's stomach, which made him look much better recently.

It's at least a bit more like a vampire mode that can see sunlight.

Xia Yan sneered, put down his chopsticks, and quickly brought up the interface of a food delivery app on his phone screen, where the words displayed on the red banner were clearly visible.

Crazy Thursday

"Go downstairs and buy some beer or fried chicken and hamburgers for a late-night snack."

"Let's put on a movie on the computer in a bit, and tonight the two of us brothers will have a good time!"

Xia Yan said with great gusto. Having long since given up on herself, she obviously no longer cared about how much money she spent. She ordered everything she wanted to eat. Although she rarely spent money like this normally, she clicked to pay without hesitation today.

Also.

If this were said by a man, there might still be some camaraderie between male friends, and it wouldn't be misunderstood as just a dinner gathering between brothers and friends.

However, when Xia Yan's Tian Tian female voice comes out now, it's hard not to subconsciously misunderstand and let one's imagination run wild.

For example, a man and a woman eating late-night snacks and drinking together in the same room.

For example, they would sleep in the same bed.

For example, you could watch a movie and then have some fun...

It looks like they're about to start a game.

But in reality, Xia Yan was completely unaware of this. He still saw himself as a boy. After all, only his body had changed, and it was only a short week. How could he so easily give in and get used to it?

Hua Xin was completely unaware.

Having spent his time in Little Black as a shut-in, doing nothing but playing computer games, watching movies, using his phone, and watching 2D at night, he was clearly less responsive to such things.

Of course, there's also the reason why Hua Xin subconsciously still regards the beautiful girl in front of him, who is comparable to his various "2D wives," as a good brother he's known for a long time.

"..."

"Um..."

Hua Xin seemed hesitant to speak.

"How?"

"Do you really think Crazy Thursday is inferior to your Crazy Thirteen Spices?..."

Xia Yan's lips twitched. Although she was teasing Hua Xin, she was still afraid that Hua Xin would really go crazy from eating Thirteen Spices and would argue with her.

"..."

"No... it is..."

"Can we not go downstairs? Can't we order takeout for things like beer?..."

Hua Xin raised her hand weakly and spoke. Her hair was a little long and almost covered her eyes. In addition, she was involuntarily bent over, which made her look very humble when she made such a gesture, even though Hua Xin was very tall.

Xia Yan was taken aback, then frowned.

She was clearly aware of this as well.

The two of them spent most of their time at Hua Xin's house playing games and watching anime. Not only was Hua Xin tired of going out, but Xia Yan was even more resistant to going out after his transformation.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been eating the Thirteen Spices set meal for so long.

But compared to these...

The unconscious inferiority complex that Hua Xin carried was what Xia Yan sensed and remained silent about.

For so long, she seemed to have been only worrying about her own problems, but she did vent a lot of her negative emotions to Hua Xin. She never expected that Hua Xin was actually a patient with severe social anxiety before she came.

Xia Yan pondered for a moment, then a glint of light flashed in his eyes, as if he had thought of something. He raised his head, crossed his arms, cleared his throat, and then slowly said to Hua Xin with a hint of seduction:

"If you can do it..."

"Good children will receive my reward."
