The sky was gloomy; yesterday’s rain seemed to have never stopped, continuing until today.
Cold and hard raindrops, blown by the wind, tapped against the window.
They were tinged with a faint blue by the faint glow emanating from the meteorite on the desk, making them look like meteorites falling from the Milky Way to the earth’s surface.
But meteorites would create deep craters, while these merely slid slowly down the glass upon contact, until scattered by the wind.
“Ugh…”
The girl on the bed felt her whole body burning as if on fire.
She hugged the quilt with both hands and feet, muttering something incoherently.
She knew she was in a dream, and desperately wanted to wake up, but she couldn’t open her eyelids, which felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.
The pattering rain outside the window overlapped with the rain in her dream.
No, perhaps the rain in her dream was even heavier; the torrential rain seemed to soak her heart…
“Brat, what’s going on? Not getting up at seven-thirty today? Oversleeping? Get up, you stinker!!”
Second Sister’s voice came from outside the door.
But she was still struggling in her dream.
“Huihui! Where are the keys to our room door?!”
“You don’t have them?”
“I mean the room key! That kid locked the door from the inside and isn’t up yet! He’s asking for a beating!”
“They should be in the nightstand in our room, I forgot if it’s the left or right one.”
“I’ll look—”
Then came a few minutes of silence.
She also wanted to get up, but her body instead burrowed back into the covers, pulling them tightly around herself.
Although the time was short, An Jing felt the room had been quiet for a long time.
The rain in her dream continued to fall, as if another whole day and night had passed.
“Bang!”
The room door was kicked open.
Yu Mingfei angrily rushed into the room and slapped An Jing, who was under the covers, “You brat, do you want to be late?! Get up—!”
She was finally pulled out of her dream by her cousin.
She groggily opened her eyes, poked her head out from under the covers, took a deep breath of the cool, fresh air, and then vaguely stretched out a pale arm, seemingly trying to prop herself up.
However, the cousin in front of her suddenly widened her eyes, stumbled back two steps, and stared at her as if she’d seen a ghost, “…You… Who are you?”
The girl sat up drowsily, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and patted her slightly dizzy head, tilting it exasperatedly, “What are you talking about? If I’m not An Jing, who else could I be?”
“How could you be An Jing? Who are you? When did you come home? Where’s An Jing? Why are you in his bed?”
“Eh?”
The heavy sleepiness dissipated considerably.
The face of the girl who called herself ‘An Jing’ gradually turned pale.
She looked a bit nervous, “You… you don’t recognize me? Sister Fei? Impossible… impossible… I was just…”
“Explain yourself, what exactly happened? I didn’t hear any doors opening or closing yesterday. How did you get in, and where did An Jing go?!”
Facing her stern cousin, the girl became flustered and anxious.
Her eyes, each with a tear mole on either side, began to redden, and tears uncontrollably welled up.
“Sister Fei, I really am An Jing…”
“What nonsense are you talking about?!”

This was the biggest crisis in An Jing’s life.
Actually, she had originally thought this would happen when she first transformed, but she had managed to muddle through that time.
This had gradually put her at ease, making her believe she could keep everything a secret.
However, who would have thought that this huge crisis would suddenly erupt?
Completely unprepared, her mind was in a mess.
She tried to concoct a story, but only fragments of words remained in her mind.
“Hey, hey, what’s wrong, don’t cry!”
Yu Mingfei looked at the weak girl in front of her, whose bright eyes welled up with pearl-like tears, and immediately panicked, “Although I don’t understand what happened, please don’t cry first, don’t cry first, hey, hey, don’t cry!!”
“What’s wrong, Feifei, so noisy?”
Yu Minghui walked into the room holding a comb, and then, just like Yu Mingfei, she froze in place, “Huh… who… who is this?”
“I don’t know, and she says she’s that kid An Jing.”
“Xiao Jing… although his name sounds like a girl’s, he’s definitely… a big young man.”
“Yeah, that little brat is already 1.7 meters tall, and might even grow to 1.8 meters in the future. His face is definitely not delicate, and while not ugly, it’s just ordinary. There’s no way he could turn into this.”
Yu Mingfei frowned and turned her head, “Hey! Stop crying, and tell us what’s going on first!”
However, the girl in front of them cried even harder, clear, sparkling tears flowing incessantly.
“Oh, Feifei, don’t scare her.”
“I’m not, but she keeps crying, so I can’t ask anything…”
“I’ll do it.”
Yu Minghui patted her shoulder, took her place in front of the girl, and smiled as she squatted down, “Little girl, don’t be afraid. Feifei and I aren’t bad people. We’re just curious why you’re here.”
“Sister Huihui!”
The girl collapsed as if broken, throwing herself into Yu Minghui’s arms and hugging her neck tightly.
She had been trying to hold back, but now she burst into loud sobs, hiccuping as she cried, making one worry if she would run out of breath.
Yu Minghui was stunned but didn’t continue to question. She simply hugged the girl back, gently patting her back, “Alright, alright, don’t cry, don’t be sad, big sister is here…”
“Wuwu… I didn’t… mean to… wuwu… hiccup… I… hiccup… I didn’t know… it would… change… meteorite… wuguwu…”
“Don’t rush, don’t rush, speak slowly, slowly, what exactly happened?”
In Yu Minghui’s motherly embrace, the girl’s emotions finally gradually calmed down.
She raised her hand to wipe her tears, but her sister gently wiped them for her, then pulled out a few tissues and carefully dried her face.
Her small face became redder and redder.
“How are you feeling… better now?”
“It’s okay, you can rest a bit longer. Are you thirsty? Do you want some water?”
The girl gently shook her head, then choked and took a deep breath, closing her eyes tightly.
She finally decided to tell her sisters everything completely.
When she thought about just letting go, not caring if she was laughed at or made headlines, her mood actually lightened.
“This… this might be related to… the meteorite… It, it turned blue again…”
An Jing told them everything, bit by bit.
From first picking up the meteorite, to feeling a bit unwell later, then frequently doing “those things,” which led to a huge change, and also gaining superpowers.
And in fact, she had already turned into a girl on her birthday, but her two sisters at the time hadn’t noticed anything at all…
“Five times in one night!? You’re… you’re…”
Yu Mingfei gave a thumbs up, seemingly speechless.
An Jing’s face immediately flushed with embarrassment.
She looked down and played with her fingers, suddenly regretting saying those things.
She just felt it had nothing to do with her frequent actions.
The weirdness should all be related to the meteorite.
Why hadn’t she figured that out before?
If being too frequent made you a girl, wouldn’t the world be in chaos?
However, she really hadn’t thought it through before…
A teenager’s mind was still too simple.
“You mean…”
Yu Minghui said thoughtfully, “that last Saturday, just a few days ago, you already turned into a girl, right?”
“Impossible, you changed so much, how could we not have noticed, and acted as if nothing happened?”
“It’s just… I’m also very confused. At that time… everyone still thought I was a boy, and they all thought I had always looked like this, always more like a girl, and then it just seemed to… be reasonably explained away.”
Yu Mingfei shrunk her neck, “That kind of thing is too scary, replacing someone without noticing… and still treating them like the original person…”
“Don’t you have your previous memories?”
“Yes, before, well… everything was pretty normal. It was my birthday, and we even bought you a pair of shoes, specifically going to City T to buy them.”
“Because there weren’t any men’s shoes in such a small size, that’s why… you went to City T.”
An Jing took a deep breath, “Sister Fei… have you forgotten?”
“That happened? Impossible?”
“Regardless of whether it’s possible or not, let’s first check Xiao Jing’s shoes, if they’re that small.”
“I did buy a pair of red shoes, that’s right…”
Yu Mingfei scratched her head and quickly walked out of the room.
Less than half a minute later, a gasp was heard, and then she quickly ran back in, “It really is that pair, but it’s so small!! What’s going on?”
“So… do you believe it now?”
“But how is that possible?”
Yu Mingfei, who had a university education, frowned, “This doesn’t seem very scientific?”
“Science… might just be a science that cannot be explained for now.”
Yu Minghui shook her head, “Perhaps it’s meteorite radiation…”
“Eh? So are we radiated now?”
“But it shouldn’t be the kind harmful to the human body, but a strange kind of radiation…”
“Should we contact the relevant authorities? After all, it’s such a bizarre thing, maybe we could get some help then?”
“Ah? Eh? Really, really like that?”
An Jing’s face turned ashen, as if she saw the headline news being discussed by countless people:
“Boy turns into a girl due to excessively frequent self-pleasure!”
“Meteorite falls from sky, has effect of turning men into women, exclusive interview with the first victim!”
“Meteorite radiation only effective on that person, what did he do—”
“Experts research indicates eating garlic can prevent meteorite radiation.”
“Absorbing meteorite radiation without dying, experts are discussing and researching plans for this special constitution.”
“Immersed in pleasure unable to extricate himself, this is the change that occurred in this boy’s body…”
Don’t let that happen!!!
Aww I thought it’d actually keep affecting the world’s perception of her. I wonder how she’ll deal with this now though.
