Chapter 161 159. Plans
Ever since her period ended, An Han realized that becoming female didn’t seem to have brought any substantial changes to her daily life.
After the initial panic passed, her emotions gradually stabilized. Although she still occasionally and subconsciously imagined a miserable future, her mindset was actually pretty good, and she had grown more accustomed to focusing on the present.
And the present problem was—Su Peng might be fishing, right?!
An Han strongly suspected that what Su Peng said to her yesterday at noon was deliberate bait. But when she thought about the possibility that Su Peng might actually find a girlfriend… she herself hadn’t even found one yet! Why should that idiot get there first?!
Besides, if she didn’t agree to go with Su Peng to the blind date, she absolutely could not handle Task One’s reward, “a boyfriend from heaven”!
How was that a reward? It was clearly a punishment! Was this damn system determined to bend her the wrong way?!
After casually finding a reason she could accept, she immediately started preparing for Saturday’s blind date.
The blind date venue was Langus Restaurant.
During class, An Han had completely lost the will to listen. Holding her phone, she searched online for reviews of the restaurant, and in the end her gaze froze on the average spending per person.
One thousand…
“Damn capitalist pigs!” she muttered through clenched teeth. “I’ve never eaten at a restaurant this expensive in my life!”
“What?” Chen Junjie, sitting beside her, suddenly turned his head.
“None of your damn business!”
“You’ve been really aggressive lately,” Chen Junjie said listlessly as he slumped down, completely lacking his former enthusiasm of constantly hovering on the edge of getting punched.
Recently, he was dirt poor, living on instant noodles every meal. Most of his energy was spent on his spendthrift girlfriend, leaving him with no spare interest to tease An Han during breaks.
Seeing that he had no intention of fighting back, An Han lowered her head and searched online for “things to pay attention to when accompanying a friend on a blind date” as reference.
1. Just be a supporting role; don’t steal your friend’s spotlight.
Got it—steal Su Peng’s spotlight… but whether it was looks or family background, Su Peng was better than her. Unless the blind date liked pretty boys, there was no way she could steal the spotlight.
Being too outstanding really was a headache.
2. Help screen the date for your friend.
So afterward, she could badmouth Su Peng’s blind date a bit more… She nodded thoughtfully.
3. Adjust the blind date atmosphere.
Deliberately make things awkward—bring up embarrassing things Su Peng had done at school over the past two years, or even dig out his dark history of fooling around during middle and high school, exaggerating it as much as possible.
4. Don’t dress up too deliberately, but don’t be too sloppy either.
An Han looked down at her outfit: a simple black padded jacket and black casual pants. This men’s clothing minimized her body curves as much as possible and significantly downgraded her pretty face.
So on the day of the blind date, should she dress up nicely?
Resting her chin on one hand, she recalled her makeup from the cosplay convention, and how amazed Su Peng had been when he saw her in a qipao back then.
Yeah—dress beautifully and make Su Peng’s blind date feel inferior!
But why did that kind of behavior feel like she was declaring ownership over Su Peng?
Looking back at those tips, although doing the opposite would definitely make Su Peng’s blind date extremely unhappy, to outsiders her behavior would look just like a girl being jealous and fighting over a man.
If she dressed sloppily… then she would really just become a foil, highlighting Su Peng’s handsome looks.
“An Han, are you coming to watch my match on Saturday?” Wang Sheng suddenly asked in a low voice.
“No. I don’t even understand it.”
“Didn’t I teach you? You just don’t play.”
Her mind was already completely occupied by Su Peng’s matter, so she brushed him off casually. “It’s too hard. I can’t play.”
“What’s hard about it? You just move the mouse to the opponent’s head and click the left button. Aren’t all shooting games like that?”
“???” She stared at Wang Sheng in confusion.
What the hell are you talking about?
By that logic, basketball is just throwing the ball at the hoop, Go is just surrounding white stones with black ones, and writing novels is just typing on a keyboard.
And I don’t see myself being good at any of those!
Just then, the class bell rang.
An Han glanced toward the back at Su Peng, stood up, and hurriedly ran forward with the group of girls.
Most of the time, girls sat in the front rows—it was mainly because they got up early, and the boys didn’t bother competing with them.
With a loud thud, An Han slammed both hands onto Lin Yi’s desk, her expression serious. “Come out for a moment.”
“Huh?” Lin Yi, who had just been about to play games with her roommate, was startled.
“The hallway.”
Lin Yi was pretty easygoing, and their friendship had improved after going to the cosplay convention together last time.
She quickly followed An Han to a corner of the hallway and asked with a smile, “What’s up? I haven’t broken up yet, even though Su Peng is pretty handsome.”
“I’m not here to help you promote Su Peng,” An Han leaned in a bit. “Are you free on Saturday? Help me do my makeup?”
“Makeup?”
“Yeah!” Although her tone was firm, a flush still crept onto An Han’s cheeks.
Lin Yi looked her up and down in surprise. “Didn’t you act like you were dying the last time you wore makeup? And with your face, you can already pull off crossdressing without makeup, can’t you?”
“This time there’s just something urgent, and the occasion is more formal…” An Han struggled to find a reasonable excuse.
“But even for formal occasions, men at most wear a suit and do their hair, right? Your complexion is good and you don’t have acne. There’s no need for makeup.”
An Han was left speechless by the counter-question.
She couldn’t exactly say she wanted to dress beautifully to sabotage Su Peng’s blind date, could she?
She pursed her lips. After a long while, she finally snapped, “Why are you asking me so many questions just to do makeup?!”
“Alright, alright. What time on Saturday? I’ll check my schedule.”
“Probably in the morning?” An Han asked tentatively. “Um, could you also lend me an outfit?”
She and Lin Yi were about the same height, so the clothes would probably fit. Ordering online risked sizing issues, and with delivery times, it was already too late.
“So you really are going to crossdress!” Lin Yi instantly got excited. “You should’ve said so earlier! I still have the bra I bought for you last time! You can borrow whatever clothes you want—on Saturday come to my dorm and pick freely from my wardrobe!”
Why was this girl so enthusiastic about dressing boys in women’s clothes?
Although this aligned with An Han’s plan, the more it went on, the more something felt off.
She was probably being treated as a mannequin…
“So are you planning to go on a date with Su Peng on Saturday?” Lin Yi asked, her face flushed with excitement.
“I’m a guy…”
“You’re our class beauty~ What guy is this pretty?”
An Han turned her head away, refusing to engage with the topic.
But suddenly, she realized—she probably couldn’t fit into the bra she bought at the cosplay convention anymore, could she?
