Chapter 126: Preparation for Imprisonment 4

“Wear this outfit.”

“Spray some men’s cologne.”

“Keep your chin up and your chest out, look lively!”

The final exams had just ended, and Ji Yuennian announced to his family that he was going to spend the summer vacation traveling to another province with his girlfriend to admire the peach blossoms.

His family was very supportive of this plan.

Especially Huang Qingchuan, who personally helped him pick out his clothes with such enthusiasm that it seemed she wished he could come back with a grandchild in two months.

“Yueyue.”

A pair of small hands gently rubbed Ji Yuennian’s cheeks as Huang Qingchuan smiled brightly and said, “Remember, be careful when you’re out. Call home often. And, work hard—I hope when you come back this time, I’ll be able to meet my daughter-in-law.”

“Mm-hmm.” Ji Yuennian nodded repeatedly.

“For these two months, make sure to sleep on time and eat breakfast on time, or you’ll get a stomach illness.”

“Mm.”

“Make sure to cover yourself properly at night, especially your stomach. Don’t catch a cold.”

“Mm.”

“Eat more fruit to get vitamins, and don’t forget broccoli.”

“Mm.”

“And also…”

Seeing Huang Qingchuan still going on and on, Ji Yuennian hurriedly interrupted, “Mom, I have to go. We’re about to be late. We bought plane tickets.”

With that, he grabbed his luggage and rushed out the door.

Suddenly, a hand pulled him back from behind.

Ji Yuennian turned around and saw it wasn’t his mother but his older brother—Ji Haotong—who had grabbed him.

A dark gold bank card was slipped into Ji Yuennian’s palm.

Ji Haotong patted his little brother’s shoulder with a look of satisfaction, as if seeing their “little pig” finally learning how to forage for cabbage.

“Dad gave you this card. There’s 300,000 yuan inside. The password is your birthday. If it’s not enough, call home for more.”

“Money is a man’s backbone. Don’t let our future sister-in-law look down on you. Give her a bit of the wealthy son-in-law shock.”

“And also…” Ji Haotong raised his eyebrows teasingly.

“Dad said that when you come back this summer, you should bring your younger brother with you. It’s been so long; it’s time for our family to meet hers.”

“Absolutely!” Ji Yuennian pounded his chest confidently.

But in reality, he thought secretly: bring him back? No way. After this summer, after watching Jiang Chi cry bitterly and wail in despair, he would immediately pretend to be just as heartbroken and depressed from a breakup.

Bring him back?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

No matter how desperate Ji Yuennian was, he would never make a move on the same sex!

“Dad, Mom, Bro, I’m off!” Ji Yuennian dragged his suitcase and waved goodbye.

“Safe travels!”

Huang Qingchuan and Ji Haotong stood side by side at the door, waving nonstop as they watched Ji Yuennian’s figure grow smaller and smaller until it completely disappeared from view.

“Yueyue’s grown up. That’s good.” Huang Qingchuan sighed with emotion, then glanced at her eldest son, who was playing on his phone beside her, and felt some frustration.

“Tongtong, I want to hold a grandchild.”

Without noticing the slight oddness in his mother’s tone, Ji Haotong was focused on his game, distracted: “Wait for little bro. If nothing unexpected happens midway, in a few years there might be grandchildren. Then little bro will settle down and become more mature.”

“And what about you?”

“Me?” Ji Haotong paused, then scratched his head and said, “Mom, I haven’t met anyone I like yet.”

“If you haven’t met anyone, go on blind dates. The more you go on, the sooner you’ll find someone!” Huang Qingchuan suddenly grabbed Ji Haotong’s ear and yelled, “I’ve signed you up for a matchmaking event with 3,000 people. Right now, immediately, go!!”

“If Yueyue brings home a girlfriend and you don’t…” Huang Qingchuan’s voice softened but her eyes flashed dangerously.

“Ouch~ Mom, please spare me!”

“I really don’t want to go on blind dates!!” Ji Haotong wailed.

“No way, you have to go. I want to hold a grandchild!”

“Today, whatever you say doesn’t count!”

Secret Base No. 2, rented cabin.

Ji Yuennian didn’t head straight to the airport.

Instead, he returned here, transformed back into a girl, changed into female clothes, and swapped the black suitcase for an orange-yellow teddy bear suitcase already packed with dresses and makeup.

Locking the door behind him, he cast one last glance at the lonely male clothes inside the room.

A breeze stirred the hem of his short skirt, revealing long, slender legs and bringing a slight chill between them.

The corner of the girl’s lips curled unconsciously.

Two months—two months to accompany Jiang Chi, living as a woman for two months, spending these two months as Jiang Chi’s girlfriend.

During these two months, she could freely wear skirts and dresses however she liked.

She could confidently and properly wear female clothes out on the streets.

She could fully show off her cuteness and playful mischief.

She could prank, tease, act spoiled… she could even demand kisses and hugs from her boyfriend. Even if she really did something wrong, he would choose to forgive and accept her.

Compared to her male identity, the female identity was like a fish in water, a natural advantage.

She was a cared-for group, granted an unimaginable amount of tolerance.

The girl took a small mirror from her handbag; her dark, round eyes shifted as a faint smile played at her lips, half-smiling as she looked at her reflection.

“Being a girl really isn’t bad.”

In the busy airport hall, Jiang Chi had been waiting for half an hour, dragging his suitcase.

He was already past the agreed time and began to doubt whether Ji Yuennian—or rather, Ji Qingchan—had the wrong time.

Just as Jiang Chi wondered whether he should call, a familiar figure appeared in his sight.

Before Jiang Chi could react, the girl suddenly leapt into his arms, hugging him tightly as if trying to merge herself into his body.

“Senior Jiang~ Am I late?” The girl teased coquettishly, her voice full of sweetness.

She tilted her head up, her big, watery eyes filled with expectation, pouting cutely as she begged, “Kiss me, boyfriend. I want a comforting kiss~~”

Her adorable expression instantly melted Jiang Chi’s heart.

He reached out indulgently to ruffle her hair, then bent down to plant a gentle kiss on her forehead, smiling tenderly, “I forgive you.”

She wasn’t him.

She wasn’t him!

She wasn’t him!!

Sure enough, Qingchan existed!

Jiang Chi didn’t understand the mysterious silver coin.

Jiang Chi didn’t understand how a 1.63-meter girl and a 1.8-meter boy could switch seamlessly.

Jiang Chi also didn’t understand why Ji Yuennian held such deep hostility toward him.

But he knew that his Qingchan existed, and that was enough!

Then, the boy’s hand instinctively reached for the handbag hanging by her side, touching something angular—a book, a book about “personality therapy.”

He wanted to save her, save his little girlfriend, save his Qingchan.

Such a miraculous body that could freely switch genders only needed one personality.

As his affectionate gaze swept over her entire figure, Ji Yuennian inexplicably felt a chilling sensation well up from within, a hair-raising coldness.

But when she lifted her head, she met those eyes, like a sea of stars, eyes that could drown anyone.

Yet, she didn’t notice that behind that tender affection lay a deep, unforgettable hatred and pathology.
