“Oh…”

Xia Xinyu found that Chen Yuan indeed hadn’t brushed his teeth, but she was somewhat surprised that he, who always claimed to be concerned about his image, seemed even more attentive than her today.

Well, that's good too.

This way, he won't criticize others for being too image-conscious next time.

"Then I'll head out, Bao." Xia Xinyu waved her hand and said with a smile.

"Okay, Bao…"

Just like that, after watching Xia Xinyu leave the room, Shen Xiaoran murmured, "Ah Bao… protecting the environment is everyone's responsibility."

So, these two are so close, calling each other "Bao."

At this moment, 'Shen Xiaoran's' phone rang.

Shen Xiaoran was stunned for a moment before quickly answering the call.

Then, she heard her own voice from the other end saying, "Is this Xiao Shen… Is this Chen Yuan… Who the hell are you?"

It was clear that Chen Yuan on the other end was extremely anxious.

"I, I'm Xiao Shen."

Shen Xiaoran replied nervously, even using the nickname "Xiao Shen," which she usually hated to hear.

Awkward.

"Damn it! We swapped bodies, and it had to be with you."

It was evident that Chen Yuan was extremely frustrated.

"Hey, why are you so unwilling to switch with me? It's not like I wanted to switch either…" Shen Xiaoran muttered resentfully.

"Don't talk like that, so girly. Be a man."

Chen Yuan quickly corrected her after hearing her complaint, fearing that she would tarnish the reputation of him, a southeastern man.

"I'm a girl to begin with…" Realizing she was being too passive, Shen Xiaoran retorted, "You're using someone else's body, so don't be so carefree. Be a maiden, reserved, noble, and a little cute."

"Are you sure you've added enough highlights to yourself?"

"Never mind that." Shen Xiaoran asked anxiously, "Did this happen because your magic went out of control?"

"…"

Then, the other side went silent.

Which was equivalent to admitting that it was his fault.

However, Chen Yuan quickly added, "It's my fault, but not entirely my fault. In short, I can't take all the blame."

"…" Shen Xiaoran didn't know what he was talking about, but the responsibility was definitely not on her side, so she asked, "So, when can we switch back?"

"Maybe tonight, maybe this week… I'm not sure, but that's not the point."

Chen Yuan's tone suddenly became serious, and he said earnestly, "But no matter what, we'll definitely switch back in the end. So, in the meantime, we absolutely can't expose ourselves, and we have to take care of each other's relationships. Our personas can't collapse."

"I roughly know your persona, but I'm not quite sure what kind of person you are in front of Xia Xinyu…"

"Gentle, meticulous, reliable…"

"Don't pass on misinformation for the sake of face when we're talking about serious matters. I'm doing this for your own good."

"…" Then, there was silence on the other end. After a long while, he finally said, "Reliable and gentle, yes, and with a bit of male chauvinism, and a certain percentage of being horny…"

"Uh…"

Shen Xiaoran knew that the most important things were always hidden.

And that "certain percentage" probably referred to his finger universe.

"Anyway, ask me if you don't understand something, and keep in touch at all times."

"Wait." Seeing that the other side was about to hang up, Shen Xiaoran quickly asked, "Xia Xinyu was about to kiss me just now…"

"Then, then did you kiss her?!"

"How could I kiss her? I'm a girl too, even though the body is yours." Shen Xiaoran said embarrassedly.

"You almost got one over on me…"

"I refused by saying I hadn't brushed my teeth." Shen Xiaoran asked concernedly, "Then, what should I do? Should I let her kiss me later?"

"Just let her be, be natural. Xinyu usually doesn't kiss me proactively, especially on school days, unless I have something on my mind." Speaking of this, the pure love warrior Chen Yuan said with great concern, "In short… please spare my girlfriend, Shen Xiaoran-daren."

"Heh heh heh, your body is in my hands, how could I possibly…"

Shen Xiaoran just let out a villainous laugh and was interrupted halfway through, "Don't worry, just play my account well."

"You can rest assured, with this mere child's body, I have high emotional intelligence."

Just like that, the two of them temporarily reached an agreement.

And Shen Xiaoran, after changing her clothes, left the room to brush her teeth in the washroom.

At this moment, Xia Xinyu was cooking noodles…

Smells so good.

Is her cooking so good?

And she's making noodles for Chen Yuan first thing in the morning…

No girl can do this nowadays, right?

As Shen Xiaoran, who was already not a typical fairy, suddenly realized that Xia Xinyu was almost sci-fi in terms of being a virtuous wife and good mother.

She hadn't seen such a thing in any web novels she'd read.

If her legs were fine, could she make noodles for Chen Yuan every morning?

If the other party was Chen Yuan, perhaps it was possible.

But that was based on an imagined assumption.

But Xia Xinyu had really done it.

While Shen Xiaoran was marveling, she suddenly felt a very subtle urge to pee, different from when she was a girl…

And at that moment, a thought flashed through her mind.

Then, in the next moment, Shen Xiaoran suddenly appeared on her bed, holding her phone.

Huh?

Shen Xiaoran was stunned, completely not understanding what had happened in that instant.

Quickly, she checked her phone.

At this moment, Chen Yuan also sent a message!

Chen Yuan: We're back!

Shen Xiaoran: Yeah, we're back. But what was the reason?

She was very puzzled, it was too abrupt.

Just now, there wasn't any special trigger, right?

She just felt like she needed to pee a little…

Shen Xiaoran: Do you know the reason?

Shen Xiaoran: Or is your ability controllable again?

After sending two messages, the other party didn't reply.

After a few seconds, that feeling of a flash in her mind appeared again!

Then, in the next second, she was standing in Chen Yuan's washroom, with her hands right at her waistband, as if she had just pulled up her pants, and at this moment, the toilet was just…

"Chen Yuan is a little heated."

After complaining with a flushed face, Shen Xiaoran pressed the flush button.

Accompanied by the whooshing sound, her thoughts also returned to the bidirectional body swap.

Why?

What's the logic? Is there a basis?

While Shen Xiaoran was wondering.

Chen Yuan's phone rang.

So, she covered the microphone and quietly answered, "What's up?"

"Did you feel it just now?" Chen Yuan asked.

"Yeah, we swapped. And the moment we swapped, something flashed through my mind."

"And after we swapped, I just went to the bathroom here, and then we swapped again."

"And I, when I felt like I had to… you know, we switched back."

After the two compared notes, they were simultaneously stunned.

They seemed to have found some kind of logical connection!

When you want to pee, the body will switch back.

When you don't want to pee, the body will return to the swapped state.

Does that mean…

The condition for the swap is wanting to pee?

So, Shen Xiaoran guessed, "The condition for the swap is wanting to pee…"

"Possibly. But, Super-Zi wouldn't be so specific."

"Super-Zi? What's that?"

"No, nothing."

Chen Yuan directly skipped the previous sentence and continued, "Is there a possibility that the body can only maintain the swap in its most normal state? Like holding back pee, a… similar state of imbalance, the swap will be broken."

"That's possible."

"Anyway, the only known information so far is this one."

After learning that the other party wouldn't see her in an embarrassing state, Shen Xiaoran breathed a sigh of relief, "That's great…"

"Hey, what are you relieved about? Do you think I'm Hawking?"

Shen Xiaoran was amused, but knowing that this joke was very tasteless, she didn't respond, laughing, "I'm not saying anything, I'm going to eat noodles."

"Why do you sound so happy?"

"I'm hungry, the noodles smell so good, how can I not be happy?"

Hearing this, Chen Yuan became proud, "Of course, my girlfriend's cooking is very good."

"Hehe."

Shen Xiaoran smiled slightly, then put the phone in front of her and said slowly, "Yeah, your girlfriend is great."

"Hey, you—"

Before Chen Yuan could finish speaking, Shen Xiaoran hung up the phone.

She left the washroom, went to the dining table, sat down, and just as she was about to eat, she raised her head and looked at Xia Xinyu in front of her.

This girl naturally cooked the noodles, served them, and waited for her to eat together.

She was a little puzzled.

Mom and Dad make noodles for me because they are Mom and Dad.

Uncles and aunts outside make noodles for me because I paid for them.

The former is love, the latter is a transaction.

And love is a continuous accumulation of tedious and complicated little things…

Just like Mom, changing her clothes every day, pushing her for a walk, including giving her a bath, are all endless disturbances.

So, the previous Shen Xiaoran felt very guilty towards her mother because she would apologize even if she fell and wet her pants.

Xia Xinyu is doing these daily chores for Chen Yuan, and it's so natural, it looks like it's been accumulated for a long, long time…

Her love is truly great.

"What's wrong? Why are you staring at me?"

Seeing that 'Chen Yuan' was spacing out again, Xia Xinyu put down her chopsticks, put her hands on the table, and looked at him curiously.

How should I speak to be like Chen Yuan?

Gentle, reliable, a certain percentage of being horny…

Obviously, these are not right at this time.

But if I don't answer, it will become very strange.

And if it's strange, Xia Xinyu will kiss her…

No, what kind of strange mechanism is this?

In short, I can't space out again.

So, Shen Xiaoran picked up the noodles with her chopsticks and said with little confidence before eating, "Xinyu, you've worked hard. When I have money, I'll spoil you."

Shen Xiaoran didn't know what to say.

But for her, she would only say this.

She is disabled.

Except for Mom and Dad, no, even including Mom and Dad, she feels very embarrassed when receiving their love, so she thinks in her heart that she must reciprocate in the future…

When she first accepted Chen Yuan's help, she also hoped that the two of them would give equally, so she wanted to respond as much as possible.

So, did this sentence ruin her persona?

After eating a mouthful of noodles, she looked up.

Then, she saw Xia Xinyu suddenly stunned for a moment, and then chuckled.

"Okay."

Xia Xinyu picked up a piece of sausage from her bowl and put it in 'Chen Yuan's' bowl. Hearing him say this for the first time, Xia Xinyu suddenly felt that her boyfriend was becoming more and more adorable.

So, she also accepted it generously, smiling, "No matter how rich you are in the future, don't forget your wife who shared your hardship."

……

Shen Xiaoran, what's wrong? Why hasn't she replied to my messages?

Chen Yuan, sitting at his desk, felt a subtle sense of anxiety.

But just now, when he was holding back his pee, he traveled back to his own body once and found that it was okay, nothing major happened, and Xinyu didn't notice anything.

It should be because it's not convenient to use the phone when she's with Xinyu, right?

Then she should be able to see it when Xinyu gets out of the car.

So Chen Yuan wrote almost all the precautions in a Word document, including his information, relationships, and usually more communicative friends.

He even posted pictures of the main people, fearing that this guy would recognize the wrong person.

But the most important thing is to be low-key.

Therefore, he sent a last reminder using Shen Xiaoran's WeChat.

Shen Xiaoran (Chen Yuan): Be aloof, just pretend to read a book in school, weld yourself to your seat and don't move!

Only after all this was ordered did Chen Yuan feel relieved.

Then, he planned to take a look at the questions Shen Xiaoran had been preparing for recently.

However, after looking at it for half a minute, he threw the pen in his hand away.

Let the Holy Son do this kind of question?

If it was the Chen Yuan of 504, and he wasn't allowed to use high school formulas, he might not be able to get a very high score.

But at this moment, he was like a Dragon Ball character traveling to the Naruto world.

Buddy, how do I get to Konoha?

Of course, whether Shen Xiaoran wants to do it herself is up to her.

If she doesn't want to, then he has to hold back his pee for a while to maintain the body's non-swapped state.

If he were to do it, he could solve two hours of questions in twenty minutes.

Never mind, let's do something else…

Chen Yuan propped himself up with both hands and got up, preparing to leave the bedroom, but after only taking two steps, he suddenly fell sideways, crashing heavily to the ground with a 'thump'…

"…Damn it."

Biting his lip and protecting his arm, Chen Yuan realized how much burden Shen Xiaoran's body bears on a daily basis.

It's impossible to walk at all.

She can only move very slowly, step by step, like a snail…

Shouldn't this kind of body really go to a special school?

Chen Yuan couldn't help but question.

But having looked in the mirror just now, he knew what those dark circles under her eyes meant.

Reluctantly supporting his body, Chen Yuan grabbed onto the bed with both hands, struggled to get up, took a deep breath, and then slowly, like he was careful at the beginning, only taking half a step each time…

What would it be like to use a progress bar at this time?

No, do I still have superpowers?

Thinking like this, he used this ability.

Then he found that the progress bar did appear!

This also means that as long as he persists in walking, he can speed up the progress of his recovery.

Good!

Good Super-Zi, you're so great, you even came along.

It seems that what you like is not my person, but my soul.

Then, let's take advantage of this time to rehabilitate properly.

In this way, during the morning hours, Chen Yuan, with the help of a walking device, very seriously and intermittently rehabilitated for two hours.

Of course, he rested very frequently in between.

In fact, it added up to at most 45 minutes.

But this was already the limit of his body.

After accelerating, he found that the pressure on Shen Xiaoran's body seemed to have been reduced by half, a visible effect!

However, this only made the burden smaller, and it wasn't so strenuous to move slowly.

But there's still a long, long way to go before a real recovery.

During this time, he will try to repair Xiao Shen to the point where she can use crutches.

"Xiao Ran is working so hard on rehabilitation today, what's wrong, can't you concentrate on studying?" Mom took a towel, wiped the sweat off Chen Yuan, who was sitting in the wheelchair, and joked with a smile.

He replied, "I'll study hard in the afternoon…"

"It's okay, don't put too much pressure on yourself, just perform normally."

Mom gave Chen Yuan a gentle smile, not paying too much attention to this exam.

Or rather, everyone knows that the current Shen Xiaoran has a very low chance of getting into school based on her own strength.

Should I help her?

Just as he was thinking this, the door was knocked.

Then, Mom went to open the door.

Next, a strong man, with a smiling face, and also actively bowing and lowering his posture, invited a man dressed neatly in a leader-like manner into the house…

Is this the Sett? (腕豪, a character in League of Legends)

So strong.

Who is the person next to him?

"Xiao Ran, quickly call out to Uncle Wang." Sett said with a smile, "This is Dad's best and most awesome friend from high school."

So, this is that leader from Eleventh Junior High?

Chen Yuan quickly put on a smile and nodded, "Hello, Uncle Wang."

"Good, good." Uncle Wang nodded.

Then, the two sat down on the sofa and started chatting about something.

It could be seen that Sett was much weaker in momentum in front of this person, and his tone was particularly obvious with active flattery and compliments.

After all, he was asking for a favor.

And this Uncle Wang was quite reliable, his speech was refined and gentle.

He should be able to get this matter done for Xiao Shen, right?

Thinking this, Chen Yuan planned to turn on Super-Zi to get a feel for the situation.

[Ah, still bothering me with this matter…]

Then, he heard an attitude completely different from the surface from Uncle Wang's heart.

Chen Yuan could feel the contempt.

Why the contempt?

Wasn't it said well, when the two recalled their high school life, they both said they were each other's best friends…

Is this what adults are like?

"Then, the matter of admission, I really need to trouble you." Sett shook his hand, sincerely entrusting him, "Xiao Ran, she really wants to go to a normal junior high school."

Uncle Wang nodded, replying, "I'll do my best, I'll do my best."

But he was only doing his best verbally.

[Ah, disabled people should just not go to normal high schools…]

[And he wants me to talk to the leader, how can I possibly beg?]

[I can only do this, get her an exam in advance]

[In half a month, it's impossible to learn a year's worth of knowledge]

[Moreover, I specifically added some knowledge from the second and third years of junior high school, she can't possibly pass]

[As long as this time her score is particularly bad, it is estimated that this child won't even have the confidence to participate in the unified entrance exam]

[Otherwise…]

[If she really passes the exam, wouldn't it be a constant trouble to me?]

"…"

Chen Yuan had finished listening to Uncle Wang's inner thoughts.

He also realized how terrifying the questions Xiao Shen was about to face would be if he wasn't there.

To what extent would her confidence be destroyed.

Then, a kind of anger arose.

It's okay if you reject Sett, there's no obligation to help in the first place.

But doing this is too much.

Even if going through the back door is wrong.

Even if relaxing the conditions is wrong.

If the school district is not right, Shen Xiaoran can't naturally be promoted to Eleventh Junior High.

But the unified junior class exam before admission is Shen Xiaoran's right.

Even if she is disabled, she has the right to participate in this exam.

Right?

The way you reject this 'trouble' is to completely shatter her confidence?

"Xiao Ran is very smart, her grades in elementary school were very good. This time it's just because she studied for a short time, but when she graduates normally, she will definitely be able to pass the junior class exam." Sett said to Uncle Wang with a smile.

"She looks like a smart kid."

Uncle Wang looked at Shen Xiaoran again, and asked kindly, "Xiao Ran, do you have confidence in this exam?"

If I have confidence, you will destroy it even harder?

Facing this question, 'Shen Xiaoran' sitting in the wheelchair tilted her head slightly, revealing a bright smile: "Yes, I will win."
