Chapter 128 126. Experiment!
An Han was in a terrible mood.
She sat on the bleachers by the edge of the field, staring blankly at the track, completely ignoring Su Peng who kept pestering her beside her.
Even though she kept trying to suppress it, anxiety still surfaced in her mind—along with a pressing problem she could no longer avoid.
What should I do in the future?
She had never been a woman, had never received any kind of female upbringing. Her family and friends wouldn’t be able to understand why her gender had suddenly changed either.
Their son goes off to college for a semester, comes back home, and turns into a delicate little girl…
Just imagining her mother’s dumbfounded, disbelieving expression made An Han even more anxious. Her right leg shook restlessly, and a gloom she couldn’t dispel lingered between her brows.
Should she honestly explain everything to her mother?
But the system was far too fantastical. What had happened to her was completely unscientific and impossible to explain.
By then, would the system issue some kind of corresponding task to help resolve it?
Thinking of that only made An Han more uneasy.
Who knew what humiliating, shameful task options that dogshit system would throw at her!
“Did something happen to you?” Su Peng had been watching her expression closely and finally asked carefully.
The damn culprit is YOU! And you still have the nerve to ask?! Ask your damn head!
If she weren’t weaker than him, An Han would’ve already jumped up and pinned Su Peng to the ground for a beating.
She turned her head away, too lazy to respond.
But in truth, Su Peng was also a victim of the system. If she hadn’t turned into a girl in time, Su Peng’s sexual orientation might’ve gone crooked.
So… liking boys who look like girls—does that count as being gay?
“Hey!” An Han finally couldn’t hold it in anymore and asked, “What stage are you and An Kexin at now?”
“Just ordinary friends.”
“Tch, don’t believe it.”
She said that, but in her heart, An Han was more willing to believe they really were just ordinary friends.
Or rather—An Kexin’s unrequited love.
Poor An Kexin. Her charm wasn’t even as strong as that of me, a boy.
An Han tried her best to ease or temporarily forget the anxiety in her mind, forcing herself to be more talkative. “Do you still have any events later?”
“Nope. I can stay with you the whole time.”
“Who wants you to stay?”
She realized this guy Su Peng flirted with her every three sentences!
If it were some other girl, she’d probably have already fallen, but An Han knew very well that this guy was just lusting after her body! Despicable!
Right now, Long Xing’s favorability toward her had dropped to a safe level, but his was the love-at-first-sight type. If he saw her cross-dressed again, his favorability would probably skyrocket once more.
As for Su Peng, with his triple-digit favorability, he had already launched a full offensive. But she wasn’t an ordinary girl—deep down she felt nothing but resistance and found him annoying.
But the future was hard to say…
Right now her mood was terrible because her period had arrived. Once it was over, if Su Peng kept flirting with her, her sexual orientation—already influenced by favorability—might really start to waver.
“I have to move out and live off campus!”
An Han made up her mind.
“Why?”
“Because you’re annoying!”
She didn’t hide her disgust at all, hoping to reduce his favorability to below triple digits. But Su Peng only smiled indifferently.
If it dropped below triple digits, he’d at least take into account that I’m a man and wouldn’t be this proactive anymore.
“The counselor won’t let you move out,” Su Peng said, crossing one leg over the other. His eyes were fixed straight ahead, but his peripheral vision never left An Han.
He was increasingly convinced that An Han was a girl.
Whether it was that delicate appearance, the chest that seemed to be developing, or the act of buying sanitary pads…
“I have a way.”
That way was the newly acquired mind-reading ability!
When negotiating with Ren Chi about leaving campus, she could use mind-reading to grasp Ren Chi’s thoughts at any time and adapt accordingly!
Even if it couldn’t guarantee success, it would definitely greatly increase the odds!
But it’d be best to have a test subject first… to avoid accidents due to not fully understanding how mind-reading worked.
Su Peng suddenly felt a chill down his spine, goosebumps rising on his arms. He reflexively looked at An Han’s eyes, which were brimming with ill intent, and instantly went on full alert. “What are you planning now?”
Another weird prank?
“Nothing.”
She was actually noticed that quickly!
An Han’s heart sank, but she didn’t back down.
System, activate mind-reading!
She felt as if something inside her body was slowly being drawn out, then gathering in her brain. A cool sensation spread through her head, and a new system prompt appeared before her eyes.
【Target is overly vigilant. Failed.】
“……”
An Han twitched the corner of her mouth. So it had to be used when Su Peng had no resistance at all?
Thankfully, the failed activation didn’t cause any negative effects.
She quickly adjusted her mindset, lifted her brows, her big eyes sparkling as she smiled brightly and playfully. “Want to walk around together?”
“You, honestly…” Su Peng shook his head helplessly.
An Han’s emotional swings really were as fast as flipping a book.
But An Han in this state was clearly about to pull some prank for fun again—he needed to stay alert.
The two of them stood up from the bleachers at the same time. Seeing Su Peng’s troubled expression, An Han felt even happier.
Watching others suffer was the best medicine for maintaining a good mood.
Su Peng teased, “See? You look best when you smile. Look at how you were earlier.”
An Han had been smiling sweetly, trying to lower Su Peng’s guard—but now her smile suddenly froze.
That’s right. Just a moment ago I was extremely anxious, feeling like life was meaningless and unwilling to do anything. How did my mood suddenly improve so drastically after chatting with Su Peng for just a bit, to the point where I’m actively solving problems now?
Her expression gradually darkened.
Before, when she was affected by Su Peng’s hormones, she could still sense something was wrong in time. But now it had reached a subtle, unconscious level—no warning at all!
That was terrifying! If this continued, she might end up giving herself away without even realizing it!
“You change your mood faster than flipping a book,” Su Peng couldn’t help complaining.
Once I get permission from the counselor to live off campus, I’ll cut off all contact with Su Peng! But for now, I still need to use him to understand the flaws and side effects of mind-reading…
An Han calmed her expression. “Let’s go. There should be a relay race going on now, right?”
When Su Peng was watching the race, he definitely wouldn’t have any resistance!
I wonder what kind of image I have in his mind… what does he think of me?
An Han suddenly felt a bit nervous, afraid she might hear Su Peng criticizing her in his inner thoughts.
Since this guy liked her, his inner voice was probably unbearable to hear…
She knew men all too well. Most of them were horny bastards—when facing a pretty girl, most of their inner thoughts were enough to land them in jail.
All she could say was thank goodness for moral and legal restraints.
