“You see… that beauty over there? She’s kind of pretty.”
“I’m looking, looking again, and it seems like she’s not wearing any makeup—just pure natural beauty.”
“I can’t even imagine how sweet it would be to kiss her.”
In this Era of Spiritual Qi Revival, although humans have gained Abilities that have brought many changes to life, the tradition of working part-time jobs has remained beautifully intact.
9 AM.
The last group of part-timers began boarding their transportation, heading toward their respective workplaces.
Normally, going to work was dull, especially the commute, which felt like a form of torture.
But on this particular subway car bound for My Joy Plaza, the workers were unusually excited.
The reason was simple—there was a naturally beautiful girl on board, radiating gentle warmth and grace.
The girl stood by the door like a clear lotus in a pond, her small head bowed slightly, adorable and well-behaved.
Her slender legs were wrapped in thin white stockings, revealing soft, elegant curves.
Her straight, delicate legs were gracefully closed together, making it impossible for anyone to look past without hesitation.
Though her upper body was covered by a black female jacket, the curves outlined beneath spoke wordlessly of her graceful figure.
This girl was none other than Su Qi, who had escaped from Senior Sister Lin Xue’s home early this morning.
If you’re wondering why Su Qi was on the subway at this moment, the answer was simple.
Right after escaping from Senior Sister Lin’s house, while taking the elevator downstairs, Su Qi clearly felt the gazes of many people on him.
Although he had experienced being stared at before while selling lunch boxes, perhaps the enhancement of his Ability had elevated his charm.
On the elevator, the passersby’s stares were more intense, even scorching compared to before.
Recalling the photo that Senior Lin secretly took last night—where he looked fragile and seemingly ready to collapse with just a push—Su Qi planned to go back to the mall to retrieve his male clothes.
Among the three travel options—bus, taxi, and subway—he chose the latter.
After all, compared to the other two, the subway outside the morning rush hour seemed relatively safer in Su Qi’s mind.
The distance between the Wealth and Finance Center and My Joy Plaza wasn’t far—just four stops.
As the subway slowly arrived at the station, the announcement echoed through the car: “My Joy Plaza Station. Passengers heading to My Joy Plaza Mall, Shao Yifu Hospital, or City Paradise, please disembark here.”
Listening to the announcement and watching the doors slowly open, Su Qi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
As an ordinary nobody, he really didn’t know how to handle the overly enthusiastic gazes of many passersby!
Taking a deep breath, Su Qi stepped out of the subway platform.
Perhaps because it was Tuesday and he missed the morning rush, My Joy Plaza Station wasn’t very crowded.
Although there were still surprised looks cast in his direction from time to time, having been trained at the subway station, Su Qi felt much less pressure this time.
Tap tap tap~
His black leather shoes lightly tapped against the mall’s tiles, producing crisp sounds.
Su Qi walked toward the locker where he had stored his backpack yesterday while checking his small phone.
He opened the pinned chat with Elder Sister Wen Yin.
Since 6 PM last night, Wen Yin had been sending message after message, worrying about his safety.
A warm current passed through Su Qi’s heart.
After his parents disappeared and his sister Su Lulu fell into a coma, aside from his good brother and childhood friend Mo Yu, only Wen Yin cared about his well-being now.
Reading her gentle messages one after another:
“Xiaoqi what are you doing? What do you want to eat tonight? I’ll cook for you.”
“Xiaoqi, it’s already 10 PM, and it’s getting dark outside. Where are you? I’ll come pick you up.”
“Xiaoqi did something happen to you?”
After the texts came a series of voice calls.
Judging from the intervals between the calls, Su Qi was certain Wen Yin hadn’t slept last night.
She might have even gone out looking for him in the dark.
Thinking of this, Su Qi felt both warm and guilty.
He should have sent a message to kind Wen Yin earlier last night.
But since that was done, Su Qi quickly shifted his focus to how to explain things.
How should he explain to Wen Yin later?
Should he just be honest?
The thought of exposing his Su Wife Ability made him firmly reject that idea.
After all, as a boy, Su Qi didn’t want his beloved big sister to know about his strange Ability.
At that moment, Su Qi arrived at the sixth floor where he had left his backpack yesterday and headed to the accessible restroom.
Two boys laughing together walked out from the men’s restroom nearby.
Seeing this, Su Qi came up with a good excuse.
Later, he would tell Wen Yin that he stayed over at his good brother Mo Yu’s place.
Though Mo Yu and Wen Yin had never met, Su Qi often mentioned Mo Yu in front of her.
This excuse would probably work.
“Sorry, good brother, I’ll borrow your name as a shield for now. Tomorrow I’ll make it up to you with a big meal.”
After settling on this explanation in his mind, Su Qi finally returned to the accessible restroom where he had changed clothes yesterday.
Looking into the mirror inside the restroom, although Su Qi knew his charm had improved after last night’s upgrade, he was still a little stunned upon closer inspection.
His Appearance hadn’t changed much.
But his Aura and figure had undergone a dramatic transformation.
If before, Su Qi dressed as a girl gave off the impression of a gentle, flowing stream—soft, delicate, and charming—then after the Ability enhancement, that stream had suddenly merged into a clear river, retaining gentleness but adding a vibrant liveliness.
Aside from the shapely chest, upon careful observation, Su Qi sadly discovered that his butt seemed more perky, and his waist more slender.
Realizing these two points, Su Qi suddenly thought of something crucial.
Slowly, he reached out his pale trembling hand and gently unbuttoned the hem of his JK skirt.
Swish~
The cool skirt slid down along the smooth white stockings and soon fell onto the clean floor.
As the skirt that had blocked his view fell away, Su Qi saw his pure white, cute lace panties.
But to his dismay, where there used to be full curves, now there was only a tiny bulge.
The next moment, Su Qi completely lost it.
A phrase from the internet involuntarily popped into his mind: “It’s okay, small is cute too!!!”
Staring helplessly at the mirror, coming to terms with this fact, Su Qi took off the white stockings and the JK uniform one after another.
But then, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Looking back at himself in the mirror—
His golden, smooth hair like Asuna’s was gone.
Well, that was normal.
After putting on female clothes, his pupil color changed back to black, which was also fine.
But the problem was… his chest… why hadn’t it reverted? It was still soft and fluffy!
And why were his muscles completely gone?
This… what was he going to do now?
This… this wasn’t right!!!
Could it be that he really had become a little woman now?
No!
This is going to make his identification difficult
