The school was located in the suburbs.
Although it was part of the local University Town, and the snack streets, night markets, and commercial plazas were usually bustling, it was currently the National Day holiday.
Students who were supposed to go home had already left, and those who were going out to have fun wouldn’t limit themselves to the area around the university.
They were either like Bai Yao, staying cooped up in their dorms, or simply gone; the entire campus was empty.
In fact, over the past few days, Bai Yao hadn’t seen more than a few students.
‘Going out… should be fine, right?’
Bai Yao considered himself quite decent.
He wasn’t some kind of pervert; the system was just using money to tempt him!
That was the only reason he had put on these women’s clothes!
At most, it was just out of curiosity; it definitely wasn’t because he was a pervert…
“I should probably forget about going out, right?”
Bai Yao muttered to himself as he curled up in his chair.
His bare feet rested on the chair as he hunched his body, hugging his shins with both hands.
His knees were pulled up high, and his gaze was flickering.
He felt shame, fear, and a faint sense of excitement deep in his heart.
The way his knees were raised caused the short skirt to pile up on his thighs, vaguely revealing the edge of his boxers, which looked like safety pants.
Bai Yao looked down at his legs.
His thighs were very white and had a bit of a fleshy feel to them; with even a slight movement, the skin would jiggle ever so slightly.
Under the dorm lights, he could see sparse leg hair on his slender calves.
It wasn’t obvious, but it was annoying.
Even though he sat for long periods and the system had “improved” his body, his legs remained slender.
When he pressed his knees together, there was a visible triangular gap between his thighs about one fist wide.
‘So erotic…’
For the first time, Bai Yao felt that his body was quite suggestive!
Had his hips always been this wide? He couldn’t remember…
If his thighs were a bit meatier, wouldn’t it be even more erotic?
He clumsily lowered his legs and tugged at the hem of his skirt to cover his thighs.
Although he had often been told he looked like a girl since he was a child, his cross-dressing wasn’t necessarily “beautiful” in the traditional sense.
It was more that he had relaxed his deliberate control over his behavior, revealing a “feminine” side that removed any sense of stiffness often found in men dressing as women.
Looking at the dark computer screen, Bai Yao’s cross-dressed image was reflected back at him.
He intentionally puffed out his cheeks, acting cute toward the screen.
His eyes curved, revealing playful aegyo sal.
‘I’m actually quite cute!’
A strange sense of pleasure~
“Ahhh! This is so perverted!”
Bai Yao suddenly snapped back to his senses.
He leaned over the table again and banged his forehead against the surface.
Thud, thud, thud.
He felt a slight pain in his forehead, attempting to use it to wake up his reason, which had been bewitched by the system.
Just 100 dollars to make him go out in women’s clothes!
It made it seem like he had been looking forward to cross-dressing all along and was just a pervert looking for an excuse!
They need to pay more!
“Did you hear someone screaming miserably?”
“Who? It sounded like it came from Room 522?”
Student’s voices suddenly drifted in from the hallway.
Bai Yao froze, not daring to move a muscle.
He even slowed his breathing, terrified that someone would discover there was a pervert in the dorm wearing a little skirt.
Fortunately, the conversation and the sound of footsteps quickly faded into the distance.
After the scare, Bai Yao’s interest in cross-dressing vanished.
He let out a soft sigh of relief and stood up, intending to take off the skirt.
However, he heard the devil’s temptation once more.
[You are homebound due to unemployment, becoming increasingly decadent due to smoking and alcohol abuse, and unwilling to go out because your body is out of shape… Having lost channels of communication with the outside world, your psychological issues cannot be ignored! Please hold firm to your convictions and take this step!]
This system was truly something.
It cared about the host’s physical health, emotional problems, and appearance, and now it was worrying about his mental health.
But Bai Yao wasn’t that kind of female pervert!
He was only unwilling to go out because he was wearing women’s clothes!
[A long-term lifestyle of staying at home, drinking, and paying off a mortgage has emptied your wallet. You’ve wanted to buy an L-size Jiaomei as a birthday present for this year, but you’ve been hesitating for half a year because you couldn’t bear the cost.]
[Additional Reward: 500 cash!]
“Let’s go!”
Although he didn’t quite understand everything, Bai Yao’s eyes lit up.
He clenched his fists in excitement and felt a rush of blood to his head, wanting to dash out the door.
500 dollars! He had let Lin Mingxin get away last time, only feeling the sting of losing 500 dollars afterward.
He absolutely could not miss it this time!
This was one-third of his living expenses!
If he could earn 500 every day, he could make 15,000 a month! For a student, that was a massive sum of money!
When he had worked a summer job after graduating high school, he had worked as a waiter for two months with only two days off a month, and he had only made a little over 6,000.
A physical exam!
A new computer!
A Steam Deck!
A gaming chair!
New games!
Ah— he should change his phone too!
He wanted to buy the new iPhone 17!
In his excitement, Bai Yao twisted the doorknob.
Click!
The door had been locked from the inside.
The sound was like a bucket of cold water being poured over his head, and the urgency and heat in his eyes suddenly cooled.
He froze, his brows furrowing as he whispered, ‘500 dollars…’
It’s enough to buy my integrity!
Anyway, there was hardly anyone around the school right now.
Taking a walk outside didn’t mean he would be caught.
Even if he was spotted at night, it would be hard to notice he was a man!
‘If I had a wig or stockings, it would be better.’
His hair was still too short, and the sparse hair on his calves was also a concern.
After calming down slightly, Bai Yao turned to his drawer, took out a mask, and put it on.
Even if someone recognized him as a man, they wouldn’t know who he was.
Bai Yao repeatedly checked for any flaws in his outfit in front of the mirror.
He clenched his fists, cheering himself on.
“500 dollars!”
“Let’s do this!”
He unlocked the door and peeked through the crack into the hallway.
Since it was the holiday, only a few lights were lit in the hallway at night.
The dim environment made him feel a bit more secure.
Having fully prepared himself mentally, Bai Yao gritted his teeth and stepped out of the dorm.
As the night wind blew, his completely exposed legs felt a chill, and he broke out in goosebumps.
Bai Yao shuddered, reflexively pressing his knees together, his eyes darting around anxiously.
Going out in women’s clothes was a completely different experience from wearing them in the dorm.
‘I’m going to be caught! I’m definitely going to be caught!’
Bai Yao tugged at his mask, ensuring most of his face was covered.
Then, he tiptoed toward the stairs, trying to maintain as normal a posture as possible.
He could hear shouting from the dorms he passed, likely from people playing games together.
He could also clearly hear his own footsteps, which seemed exceptionally loud and prominent at this moment.
He could even hear his own heart and pulse racing, thumping like a drum.
“What are we eating tonight? BBQ?”
A dorm door ahead suddenly opened, and a student stepped into the hallway while on the phone.
His heart stopped!
His entire body felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar, and a chill instantly swept through his limbs.
Bai Yao froze in place.
He wanted to run, but his feet wouldn’t move.
He could only watch helplessly as the student glanced at him.
The student lowered his voice and grumbled into the phone as he walked, “Isn’t our dorm building restricted? I actually saw a girl…”
Only when the student disappeared into the stairwell did Bai Yao regain his strength.
His back was already drenched in sweat, and his legs felt so weak he nearly collapsed to the floor.
He wanted to go back…
