“Truly… it has everything.”
I was too tired to complain anymore. Every style, every fabric—you name it, all exquisitely made. If my mom saw this, she’d go wild with joy. But my heart isn’t fully feminized yet, so this dazzling array of clothes only annoyed me. Not a hint of happiness.
I’m no cross-dresser! Right now, I desperately wanted to shout that deep down, I’m a guy—but I didn’t dare expose myself.
And the worst part was…
“How about this shawl with the dress? Very elegant, right?”
“I don’t think Xiao Ye suits elegant styles. Switch to this tracksuit…”
“Such pretty shoes! Wait, I’ll find matching socks~”
“How about these stockings?”
“Which ones? White or black?”
“And underwear! Which to choose? Innocent style or sexy style?”
“Xiao Ye, Xiao Ye~ hurry and try these pants!”
“Don’t give her cropped pants! We decided on a skirt, remember?”
“Someone help with her hair! My hands are full!”
My room had turned into a girls’ gathering. The constant chatter gave me a headache. As soon as Sinan Ying announced the makeover, all the female guards—including Sinan Yuan—swarmed out. Then came endless discussions, trying on outfits, stripping, redressing… So, is loving beauty truly a woman’s nature? Everyone was totally absorbed in this dress-up game. Even the stern Sinan Yuan and quiet Lin Bing were unusually animated.
After countless humiliations, I’d tried every piece in the wardrobe. But it wasn’t over. They kept mixing and matching outfits in every combination. My hair was tied up, let down, tied up again…
I—I couldn’t take it anymore!
“That’s enough! What’s the difference what I wear? Why so fussy! If you don’t decide in ten minutes, I’m going out in my old clothes!”
I finally snapped. I couldn’t let these beauty-obsessed women boss me around anymore.
Ten minutes later…
“Then this outfit it is.”
“Exactly. Being decisive is better.”
I muttered, stepping in front of the mirror—and looked.
“Ah…”
Still that stunning face. Still that perfect figure. But just by changing clothes, the whole vibe had leveled up. Glossy black hair swept into a side bang, mature yet playful. Lips glossed with a hint of cherry-pink, innocent but alluring. The top resembled a gothic lolita top—white base embroidered with crimson patterns. Jarring at first glance, but growing on you. Below, a dark red mini skirt hemmed with black lace. Legs wrapped in burnt-red stockings. And peeking from the hem—a sexy garter belt, tantalizing.
…So beautiful. Beautiful was the only word. Compared to my old trench coat, long pants, and hood, I’d evolved from a Stone Age tribeswoman to a cosmic-era Mary Sue. I had to admit—my old look wasted this beauty.
Even so, I felt utterly awkward. I really wasn’t used to women’s clothes.
“A great victory!”
The girls beamed at their handiwork. Sinan Ying’s eyes sparkled with pride.
“Alright, clothes are done. Let’s go outside to get familiar with the area,” said Sinan Yuan.
Go outside? In this getup?
“But we might run into Sinan Feng…” I worried. Even my frumpy old look excited him that much. Seeing me like this, he’d probably pounce and take me right there.
“No need to worry. We’ll take a different route out this time.”
“Only me?”
“Of course not. I, Miss Sinan Ying, Rui Xin, Lin Bing, and Mo Xiaohong will go together.”
“Won’t this affect work?”
“We just returned from a mission. During this rest period, we only need to fulfill guard duties—no new tasks.”
“But… what if I don’t want to go?”
“““““No way!”””””
Southern District of the Imperial Capital, Xiaxi Road.
As one of the largest shopping streets here, Xiaxi Road bustled as usual. Thousands of shops buzzed. Countless shoppers flowed between stores. The entrance was packed shoulder-to-shoulder, roaring with noise.
But today, the reason for the commotion was different.
“Hey, look there! Aren’t those from the Sinan Family?”
“Who’s that girl? She’s stunning!”
“Where? Let me see!”
“So gorgeous! If only I could have such a wife… (slurp)”
“Never seen anyone this pretty… Could she be the legendary Miss Moonlight?”
“How could Tatalia’s young lady walk with the Sinan Family!”
Ugh, so embarrassing…
My sharp hearing caught every word. My senses felt countless fiery gazes sweeping over me. Worse, wearing a skirt for the first time, I felt a cool, airy draft below—as if I might flash someone any second. Utterly awkward.
As for the others with me…
“The girl beside that beauty is so cute too.”
“That purple-haired one… is she the Sinan Family’s second young mistress?”
“No way!? That explosive genius? Is it safe to let her out?”
“Shh, keep it down…”
Sinan Ying’s reputation really was… I silently mourned for her.
Wait—this felt familiar. A down-on-his-luck youth, labeled a failure, gains a cheat ability, yet still faces ridicule from clueless crowds… Isn’t this straight out of those overpowered protagonist novels? In those stories, some spoiled brat would always jump out to provoke the MC, only to get crushed instantly. Then the crowd would marvel: “The XX Family’s waste actually made a comeback!”
I glanced at Sinan Ying. Her brows were furrowed, face gloomy—she’d heard the comments too. She scanned the crowd, searching… Was she hoping some reckless fool would provoke her? So she could defeat him and use him to build her reputation?
Sadly, reality was cruel. Sinan Ying was the second young mistress of a super family. Provoking her meant provoking the Sinan Family’s dignity. No one was that stupid. By the time we reached our destination, not a single brave soul had appeared. She looked deeply disappointed.
