I Don’t Want to Be Turned Into the Female Protagonist by the System

39. A Bizarre Outfit for 1000 Yuan /sys



Grumble…

Having only eaten breakfast yesterday, his stomach finally protested.

Hearing this sound, Su Qi actually chuckled. With all the changes over the past few days, even familiar things from before felt novel.

Compared to the freshness and unfamiliarity of the first two days, Su Qi now felt he had grown.

He could now easily accept the changes in his body. If you asked him why his attitude was so good?

Su Qi expressed: The system is too rogue, what can you do? Faced with such an unscientific situation, one could only suffer in silence. Su Qi didn’t want to end up tortured through his own resistance.

Opening the four-door refrigerator, the fruits were well-stocked—dragon fruit, Hami melon, pomelo, peaches, bananas, and cherries, arranged in small portions.

The quantities weren’t large, but the variety was extensive, all meticulously organized, making Su Qi sigh with feeling that Wang Yun was truly an elegant and capable woman, a worthy wife and loving mother, able to take the stage and manage the kitchen.

If he were a man, marrying such a stunning wife, he’d be grinning even in his dreams.

Although he still had a little oo now, Su Qi felt his current positioning was in the middle.

Placed in an anime, it would be a case of a girl drawn as a boy. The subsequent plot would be that one day, many people suddenly discover he’s actually female.

He took two small food containers of fruit. The containers were wiped very clean, making the fruits look even more enticing with their glossy sheen.

It was a completely different packaging experience from the fruits occasionally distributed in the male dormitory.

Without washing them again, Su Qi popped a cherry into his mouth. The cool, refreshing taste of the cherry straight from the fridge made Su Qi involuntarily let out an “mmm” of appreciation.

Hearing his own delicate voice, Su Qi paused, because he was very certain that his previous self wouldn’t make such a childish exclamation over delicious food.

Where exactly was the problem, could it be that he was psychologically turning female too?

Su Qi had many more thoughts, but after putting the cherry in his right hand into his mouth again, he lost the ability to think. These cherries were too fragrant, the sour-sweet, icy-cool taste was too delicious.

The ten cherries in the container quickly dwindled to just one. Su Qi wished this last cherry would suddenly grow larger or give birth to a few more offspring so he could eat his fill, but alas, it was not to be.

After eating this cherry, Su Qi chewed for a long time. Only after the flavor completely disappeared did he reluctantly spit out the pit, staring wistfully at the container missing a section.

Then he heard the system’s complaint.

“Why does the host eat one fruit for so long?”

Hearing the system’s words, the previously somewhat sleepy Su Qi instantly became alert and retorted: “Who do you think made me this way? If you hadn’t bound me, I would have 170,000 in savings now. Wouldn’t it be great to eat 10,000 yuan worth of cherries?

Now the Huabei and JD Baitiao bills still haven’t been paid, with over 1,500 in interest next month, and I still owe 20,000 in campus loans. You’re doing great, always thinking of ways to swindle my money, and not letting me unbind, what a rogue!”

“But host, I still don’t understand why you eat one fruit for so long?” Hearing the system’s flat voice void of intonation, Su Qi felt the urge to punch cotton.

“However, host, aren’t you very beautiful now? And surrounded by so many pretty females. Plus, according to my understanding, isn’t having beauties in your arms your dream?” The system continued.

However, one of the terms stimulated Su Qi.

“Men? Now it’s still… how many more days can it last! Counting the days, there are only two left. By then, even if the transformation is successful, I’ll only have the heart of a man. Not even secreting male hormones anymore, with the tool of the trade confiscated, what’s the point of having beauties in my arms?”

System: “Sorry host, I don’t quite understand! Since it’s a dream, how could it be related to gender?”

This time, the system’s words truly left Su Qi speechless. He felt the two of them weren’t even on the same wavelength.

And why am I, so angry, still explaining to you now?!

But after pondering for a bit, Su Qi still slowly explained to the system the differences between men and women. The reason was none other than, recalling their initial conversation in the car with one person and one system, due to his teasing, the transformation speed increased, creating a very awkward scene in the car.

Su Qi was afraid that if the system misunderstood, the speed would increase again. Su Qi gradually shifted from male-female matters to school and finally to the most critical point of money. Although he couldn’t see the system, Su Qi could feel it listening very attentively.

The small room was filled with Su Qi’s mumbling in the soft, delicate tone unique to Jiangnan women, like a lullaby, making the listener somewhat drowsy.

The system had not spoken for a long time. Su Qi talked so much his throat went dry. Just as he was about to complain that he could only buy clothes from the mall, this rogue behavior, and express that he only had this set of school uniform with no change of clothes, the system finally spoke.

“Ding, major update to the mall. Every day, one item in the store will have a random discount. Enjoy an additional discount on the first purchase of a discounted item today. Come shop now!”

Although full of roadside cosmetics store advertising copy, the phrasing of ‘additional discount’ that clearly meant getting a good deal still made the impoverished Su Qi’s eyes light up.

Quickly clicking on the Taobao page on his phone, after entering the homepage, Su Qi saw a big promotional slogan with the discounted item below it.

Low-key hoodie set: Charm -2, Intelligence -2, Purity -2, Frivolousness -2.

Description: An outfit that lowers attractiveness. Worn by someone with high attractiveness, it will make them look ordinary. If one’s appearance is average, please don’t wear it out and scare people.

Su Qi glanced at this outfit. Even with his lack of fashion sense, Su Qi could tell this set of clothes was very mismatched.

The brownish-green of the hoodie visually gave a dirty impression, paired with shit-yellow pants on the lower body, and finally a pair of red sneakers. Yellow, green, red—it gave an extremely strange contrast to the senses. Did anyone really buy these clothes? Too ugly! He looked at the price.

Original price 19,999, 50% off discount price. With an additional 90% off for the first purchase, the final price was 1000 yuan.

Uh…

Seeing these eye-searing clothes actually cost 1000 bucks, even after discounts, Su Qi asked the system: “Can we change to a different set?”

“Naturally it can be changed at midnight tomorrow, but after today, the additional discount will no longer apply. The system strongly recommends the host to purchase.”

So that’s a no?

Although the stats were what he wanted, the taste, ugh, Su Qi expressed he dared not agree.

Surveying the mall again, he found there really wasn’t anything cheaper than this. Even a pair of panties cost 2,000. Su Qi gritted his teeth. Guess I’ll buy it!

The text notification showed an instant deduction. Seeing the balance of just over 3,800 remaining, Su Qi fell into contemplation, somewhat conflicted about whether he should apply for a credit card.

Slowly taking off the sweat-stained school uniform, he changed into the hoodie set.

Unexpectedly, he found it very comfortable. The fabric was soft with extremely strong skin-friendliness. The size was just right too, as if it was conscientiously custom-made, without any awkward feeling of certain parts being too loose or too tight.

Although his appearance was still dazzlingly beautiful, wearing these clothes, he felt his presence diminished. At least Su Qi noticed the colors of these clothes first, rather than his figure.

“System products are sure to be excellent. Rest assured, host, as your ‘exclusive’ designer, even if your body undergoes any changes during the transformation, the clothes you purchase will adapt accordingly to guarantee your rights and interests.”

Under the system’s cold synthetic voice, Su Qi felt a sense that the system was being tsundere. And it especially paused on the word ‘exclusive’. So that day, it must have been tsundere, right?

Right now, it was like a primary school student waiting for the teacher’s praise.

Su Qi felt a bit warm inside. Although this system had not made him earn money, and he had spent quite a bit because of it, he had to admit it meant well for him. As soon as it heard he had no money, it quickly gave him a set of clothes.

This time it could truly be considered conscientious service. Although the appearance was a bit ugly, at least the attributes were good and the fabric was comfortable.

And he happened to want to keep a low profile, so it worked out in a roundabout way.

But Su Qi always felt that after praising the system, this guy would ascend on the spot.

Forget it!

Growl…

His stomach protested again, reminding Su Qi that he was hungry in the first place and opened the fridge to find food.

Fortunately, there were indeed leftovers in the fridge, last night’s meal. He put the rice and the roasted chicken eggplant together in the microwave.

The pickled fish had successfully frozen into a jelly-like state after refrigeration, in little chunks, trembling as he delivered it into his mouth. Paired with a serving of rice, delicious.

Without Wang Yun, this beauty, beside him, plus being truly hungry, Su Qi finished everything in just ten minutes. The only downside was having only one serving of rice, which made it taste especially salty.

The room was only a little over 20 square meters. It wasn’t big but could only be said to be sufficient. But if the containers were randomly placed, overnight the food smell would permeate the entire room.

After tidying up the meal boxes and putting on the bright red little shoes—Su Qi wore size 36 shoes that were slightly big, the bright red color making the shoes look even more dainty.

Looking only at the embroidery on the shoes, they were quite good-looking, but paired with the hoodie set, they were a bit hard on the eyes.

Su Qi knew there was a trash can by the 15th-floor stairwell, as Wang Yun had specifically instructed before she left, even saying many precautions regarding food.

Thinking of this, Su Qi felt a bit touched. What a kind big sister next door! The rent she gave was cheap, she left him so much delicious food, and didn’t get angry even after discovering his strange behavior.

Walking to the stairwell, he threw the garbage in, but as he walked back to his room door and was about to open it at the doorway…

Su Qi suddenly had the feeling of being watched, but when he went to throw out the trash just now, there clearly wasn’t anyone!

Scared, Su Qi hurriedly wanted to turn his head to look, but then remembered the midnight legend about not turning around at night.

He forcibly stopped his half-turned action.

The windows in the stairwell were open. The wind on the 15th floor was quite loud, filling the quiet stairwell with the sound of wind blowing against the windows.

If it were normal times, it wouldn’t be a big deal, but at this moment, Su Qi clearly felt a gaze observing him from behind.

He increasingly thought of the images of evil spirits described in comics.

Click…

The lock finally loosened. Su Qi dashed into the room like he was escaping.

Seeing the bright lights, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other side, in room 1524, An Ning watched Su Qi’s series of timid actions just now through the peephole.

So cute, what to do?

An Ning’s face was flushed red, panting at the corner of her mouth, her eyes seeming to sparkle with hearts. She hugged her proud figure tightly, the rabbits also squeezed, creating an indescribable crevice from the compression.

Slowly sliding down against the wall, she parted her thin lips and muttered to herself: “This time you really can’t escape…”
