“Let’s go.”
Xu Lingxue tossed out those two words casually.
As for why she was so gentle with Mo Liang.
Would you get angry at a dead person? The two people she was sending Mo Liang to NTR weren’t easy to deal with.
Of course, Mo Liang had no idea what the other woman was thinking.
Right now, she just found this female body so unfamiliar!
Her pants kept sliding down, and she had to grip the waistband with one hand to keep them from falling off on the spot. She was soaked through, her short-sleeved shirt clinging to her body, making it almost no different from wearing nothing at all. She had to keep holding the collar up with her hand, or it would have slipped off her shoulders long ago.
Xu Lingxue’s villa was directly above the basement.
As they walked through the hallway, there were quite a few servants coming and going. One by one, they caught a glimpse of Mo Liang’s disheveled state, hurriedly averted their eyes, and lowered their heads.
It wasn’t that they didn’t want to look—it was that they didn’t dare, since she was following right behind the young lady.
But even if no one dared to stare, Mo Liang was still so humiliated she wished she could crawl into a hole in the ground.
Her mind was racing with chaotic thoughts.
A girl’s body isn’t something just anyone can see, right?
Thinking about it, she gritted her teeth, summoned her courage, and called out to Xu Lingxue, who was walking ahead:
“Miss, c…could you give me some clothes to wear?”
Xu Lingxue stopped in her tracks and turned around, a hint of genuine confusion appearing on her face.
“Hm? You actually have a sense of shame?”
Mo Liang was choked speechless by those words, her face flushing red, but she didn’t dare utter a single word of protest.
But Xu Lingxue seemed to have suddenly taken pity on her. Without saying anything more, she turned and led her to the bathroom.
“Take it off.”
“Y…you’re not leaving?”
Mo Liang stared at the woman standing there in the room with complete and utter audacity, and her brain’s CPU nearly burned out on the spot.
“Why would I leave?”
Xu Lingxue’s gaze leisurely swept over her body. The bruises, patches of blue and purple, were all her handiwork—no blood had been drawn, but they added a kind of fragile, broken beauty to this slender frame.
“I—” Mo Liang almost said “I’m a guy,” but the words died in her throat.
Was she even still a guy now?
Mo Liang gritted her teeth and, with trembling hands, took off her clothes.
Then, she saw Xu Lingxue slowly pull out her cellphone, the camera pointed directly at her.
“Miss? Wh…what are you doing?”
Mo Liang’s entire face turned red, and for a moment, she didn’t know where to put her hands or feet.
Wait, this woman likes girls, right?
She’s not going to set me up with someone, is she?!
“Hm? Move your hands. Don’t block the view.”
Mo Liang was so flustered her eyes turned red, tears nearly spilling out.
But the next second, the other woman casually let a sentence drift over:
“You wouldn’t want anything to happen to your little sister, would you?”
In the end, Mo Liang’s hands shakily lowered.
“Wash yourself in the bathtub.”
Xu Lingxue leaned against the wall and gave the order.
Mo Liang obediently ran the water and quickly immersed herself in it.
The warm water enveloped her entire body. She curled up in the tub, not daring to move a muscle, her face red the whole time as she hurriedly scrubbed herself.
By the time she dawdled her way out of the bath, her body was shrouded in steam, her cheeks flushed pink from the heat, and her wet hair clung to the sides of her neck.
Xu Lingxue looked her up and down, nodded in satisfaction, then casually grabbed a large bath towel from the side and tossed it to her.
Mo Liang fumbled to catch it, then stared at it in a daze.
She used to be a guy—when had she ever used a bath towel?
She wrapped it around herself haphazardly, eventually tangling herself into a complete mess. The towel barely hung over her chest, the shoulder line loose and sloppy, exposing a large expanse of collarbone. Below, it barely covered down to her upper thighs, and her two fair legs pressed together nervously.
After wrapping herself up, she hadn’t covered anything—if anything, she looked even more suggestive than before.
Xu Lingxue silently watched the scene, a look of puzzlement on her face.
Is this girl deliberately trying to seduce me? How did she get this stupid after becoming a girl?
But since there were no servants moving around on this floor, no one else would see her.
So she couldn’t be bothered to dig deeper. She turned and tossed out a single line:
“Follow me.”
Mo Liang followed Xu Lingxue into the room, obediently picked up the hair dryer, and began drying her hair in front of the mirror.
What exactly did Xu Lingxue plan to do with that video she took in the bathroom?!
Just as her thoughts were wandering, the hair dryer was snatched from her hands from behind.
“You should know that there’s such a thing as ‘gender transformation disorder’ in the world, right?”
Xu Lingxue stood behind her, casually taking the hair dryer, and spoke while gently parting her wet, long hair.
“Mm-hm.”
Mo Liang’s whole body went rigid, and she didn’t dare move an inch.
Gender transformation disorder—this thing had suddenly appeared in the world about ten years ago, with roughly five thousand people contracting it every year.
Rumor had it that the country had already made research breakthroughs in secret, but they’d been keeping it under wraps and never released it to the public.
She never expected the Xu Family to have mastered this technology! They could actually turn a man like her into a girl!
Of course, Mo Liang had no idea the drug had side effects, and Xu Lingxue didn’t have the leisure to explain it to her anyway.
“By the time this is over, I’ll have your identity fully arranged on my end. All you need to do is complete the mission I give you.”
Xu Lingxue ran her long, slender fingers through her hair, unhurriedly blow-drying the last few strands.
“Got it!”
Mo Liang responded brightly, and thinking about that five million, it was totally worth becoming a girl!
Just as she was lost in her own fantasies, Xu Lingxue had already efficiently changed her clothes for her.
The young lady of the Xu family studied the dazed person in front of her and couldn’t help but feel doubtful.
This drug hadn’t lowered the girl’s IQ too, had it?
Otherwise, why would it take her over ten seconds to react after the clothes had already been changed for her?
“Miss, what exactly are you planning to do with that video you took?”
Mo Liang finally mustered the courage to speak up.
After all, she might have to live as a girl from now on, so she had to care about her own purity, right?
“Hm? You’re still worried about that? You’d better not ask so many questions, understand?”
Xu Lingxue grabbed her slender arm, her fingertips suddenly squeezing with force as she threatened.
“Fine then…”
Mo Liang’s eyes immediately welled up with a layer of tears, pain shooting up from her arm.
Her heart felt a little dazed. Just a while ago, she’d been beaten for nearly half an hour and could grit her teeth and endure it without begging for mercy. Why was she unable to bear a single light pinch now?
She blinked blankly.
“Tch.”
Seeing the other girl’s submissive, obedient appearance, Xu Lingxue didn’t let go—instead, she squeezed even harder.
This felt way too good! The sensation was even more delightful than beating her for that half hour earlier.
“It hurts so much!”
Mo Liang was completely unaware of how much her current appearance made people want to bully her.
Her eyes were slightly red, and her other hand weakly rested on top of Xu Lingxue’s hand. She wanted to push her away but didn’t dare use any force, so she could only whimper softly through her tears.
“What’s wrong with me?”
Xu Lingxue released her grip, a flicker of confusion in her heart.
But she wasn’t the type to reflect on herself, and that faint sense of strangeness was quickly cast aside.
She looked down at the pitiful, wronged girl whose eyes were still rimmed with red, and said, “Stop crying.”
With that, she tossed Mo Liang’s cellphone back to her.
“Everything’s arranged. You’ll figure it out yourself when the time comes.”
Mo Liang obediently nodded her little head.
She absolutely had to get that five million! And give her little sister a better life!
