[Ordinary Fashion Outfit (Female) redeemed successfully. Five points deducted. A stylish women's outfit will appear on the host shortly.]
After the countdown, the girl closed her eyes.
A flash of light later, clothes magically materialized on her.
Just like a Sailor Moon transformation.
Mujin pushed open the restroom door and stood before the mirror.
In the reflection, she wore a white high-neck T-shirt, a dark blue plaid skirt, white sneakers, and black-and-white striped knee-high socks. Pure youthful charm radiated from her.
A dark blue bow tie adorned her chest, adding a trace of playful cuteness.
The outfit resembled a sailor uniform but held subtle differences.
Mujin twirled gently before the mirror. Her skirt swirled slowly, sending a cool breeze under her hem.
"Clothes make the man"—truer words were never spoken.
Her bare figure was attractive, yet clothes transformed her completely.
Her style shifted instantly from seductive to pure allure.
No wonder actresses in Japanese adult films rarely strip bare; this might be one reason.
She admired herself in the mirror, twisting and turning.
Honestly, she hadn't expected her feminized features to be so pretty. Luckily, her face had always been androgynous. If it were Meng Xianyong—a square-jawed tough guy turned girl—she couldn't even imagine it.
She winked at the mirror. The playful gesture made even herself a little smitten.
Suddenly, she wondered: if she liked herself, was that just narcissism?
As she struck poses, passersby entering the restroom shot her unhidden, awestruck stares.
This puzzled Mujin. Their gazes were so blatant—shouldn't they hide it a little?
Still... she wasn't angry. This attention proved she was turning heads. Exactly the effect she wanted.
[Warning: Feeding task ends in five minutes. Host, complete it now.]
"Complete my ass. I'm skipping tasks today, Missy here."
[?]
Mujin: "Stupid System, if I had to do the task, why waste five points on this outfit? I could've reused Zhou Ruiyang's clothes."
Yeah, it was just one task. Skipping it meant nothing. Mujin refused to be the System's puppet. Sometimes, you just had to be willful!
Of course, Level 1 punishment was nothing to fear.
As Zhou Ruiyang's good buddy, she had to stand up for him. She'd make those snobby classmates eat their words!
After all, the Sparrow repaid kindness, not just sought revenge.
Like the legendary Snail Maiden of old, now there was the Sparrow Girl!
Just as Mujin burned with passion, a passerby approached her in the restroom.
"Miss, I've been meaning to ask—what are you doing in the men's restroom?"
"Huh?"
...
Afternoon classes neared. Classmates sat scrolling on phones, waiting for the teacher.
Zhou Ruiyang sat distracted at his desk.
Without Mujin by his side, her absence felt oddly unsettling.
"Is Zhou Ruiyang here?"
A sweet female voice called from the doorway, drawing every eye.
Zhou Ruiyang instinctively looked up.
A stunning brown-haired girl stood there, bright-eyed and graceful.
Wasn't this the girl he'd bumped into—the one who stole his clothes?
Why was she here? How did she know his name?
Their eyes met. Her face lit up. She skipped to his seat, grabbed his hand, and beamed with a tender voice, "Husband, I've missed you so much!"
Mujin's voice resembled her Sparrow form's, but [Voice Imitation Mastery] had refined it from cute to warm.
Hao Ren pointed. "Ah! That girl! Zhou Ruiyang's girlfriend!"
His words sent shockwaves through the classroom.
Classmate A: "Zhou Ruiyang has a girlfriend?! Wait, what did she call him?"
Classmate B: "Husband?"
Classmate C: "Ugh, don't call me that in public."
Classmate A: "Holy crap, you answer when a guy says 'husband'?"
The class erupted in chatter. In each other's eyes, they saw only shock.
Zhou Ruiyang himself was dumbfounded.
Husband??
He looked up. "Excuse me, were you calling me?"
"Of course! Who else here could be my husband?"
She hopped forward, hands behind her back, head tilted slightly, smiling like a blooming white lotus.
Though new to playing a girl, Mujin felt surprisingly at ease.
Zhou Ruiyang raised an eyebrow. What was this girl thinking?
Could one grope really upgrade his status this much? Women were a strange species.
He dodged the question. "Where are my clothes?"
"What do you think?" She pouted, pulling his clothes from behind her back. "You were so rough that day, tearing my clothes. So rude."
She hadn't thrown his clothes away. Storing them had been tricky.
But Mujin was smart. She'd redeemed a storage rack from the points shop, stuck it on the restroom wall, and added a note: "Temporary storage. Back soon."
Sure, anyone could see it, but no one would steal random clothes nowadays.
At her words, the class gasped.
He didn't even leave her clothes?
This Zhou Ruiyang... was he really that terrifying?!
Zhou Ruiyang frowned. This loose-tongued girl wasn't Mujin—he had zero interest.
She didn't resemble Mujin at all. A total manipulator.
"Don't lie. I don't know you."
"You... that day in bed, you said you loved me! And now you deny me?! Waaah... I love you, husband. Please don't abandon me..."
Mujin went full drama queen, shaking his arm.
"Scumbag?!" The class froze in shock.
They'd assumed Zhou Ruiyang chased her. But she was clinging to him? What could she want?
This was Mujin's plan. By acting desperate, she'd make classmates see Zhou Ruiyang as a heartthrob, forcing them to respect him.
She wanted them to realize the person they scorned might be far more popular.
Losing face? She didn't care.
She had no real identity now. Once she became the real Mujin, this girl would vanish like a shooting star.
This fake body was an invisible mask. Behind it, she had nothing to fear—she could act freely.
Just like online chats: the cutest avatar might hide a burly guy.
Zhou Ruiyang's eyes widened. He grabbed Mujin's wrist.
"Come with me!"
He dragged her out, leaving classmates gaping.
Wu Meng in the front row: "I really don't know..."
Jiang Kai chimed in: "How Zhou Ruiyang got such a pretty girl clinging to him? Don't say it—I don't know either."
"No, that's not it."
"Then what?"
"If I can crap three pounds today, Brother Kai."
"?"
