Despite the embarrassing and humiliating nature of her mother’s private lessons, Huang Xiu had to admit they were indeed somewhat useful.

She gained a clear understanding of the demeanor a girl should adopt.

She had completed the leap from a novice female to an introductory one, a truly significant advancement.

Perhaps this might sound exaggerated to others, but for Huang Xiu, it was not.

After all, before this, she hadn’t even grasped the concept of a menstrual period.

Regarding her transformation, she had simply believed it was merely a transition to another gender.

“So… will I really have a menstrual period?”

Inside her room, Huang Xiu was playing on her phone.

However, her gaze would inexplicably drift from the phone screen to the black bag on her desk.

Inside it were sanitary pads, intentionally left by her mother after their last lesson, to prepare for any sudden onset of her period.

Ever since that lesson, she had been restless and uneasy. She even feared leaving the house, dreading the moment her period might unexpectedly start, leaving her covered in blood.

Indeed, the first thing she did every morning upon waking was to check.

She would first pull back her blanket to see if there were any bloodstains on her sheets or pants.

‘Come to think of it, I’m an Awakened individual; maybe I won’t even have a menstrual period?’ Huang Xiu mused, stroking her chin.

After all, she possessed supernatural abilities, and her physical constitution was exceptionally strong. With her Void Energy protecting her body, perhaps her period would self-heal the moment it appeared?

‘Yes, that must be it!’

She affirmed with conviction, bolstering her own belief.

Otherwise, if this continued, her period might not even arrive, but a nervous breakdown might visit her first.

And so, several more days passed. The calendar turned to May.

A month since her transformation was fast approaching, yet her period still hadn’t arrived.

Huang Xiu gradually pushed the matter to the back of her mind.

Aside from venturing downstairs to dispose of trash in the dead of night, she essentially spent her entire day confined at home.

Her mother’s initial doting care gradually transformed into utter impatience, finding fault with everything Huang Xiu did.

Her mother constantly nagged her to go out and be more active, or perhaps even find a summer job before Tiandu University started its new semester.

Huang Xiu, naturally, was unwilling.

When she was still a boy, she had indeed planned to work a summer job to save money.

But now that she was a girl, everything felt inconvenient, and her plans had to be shelved.

Consequently, she watched helplessly as the lavishness of their daily meals rapidly declined, while dishwashing and all household chores were entirely transferred to her.

“So boring!”

At ten o’clock that night, her parents closed the shop and returned home. They settled on the main sofa, watching TV and chatting idly.

Meanwhile, Huang Xiu was rolling around on the smaller sofa nearby.

Clutching her phone, she scrolled through videos for a bit, then switched back to the home screen to check for new messages.

Her original plan had proven quite effective. Her junior and senior high school classmates, who had once sent congratulatory messages, now rarely initiated conversations with her.

Though she could still see herself being discussed and becoming the subject of their conversations in class groups and various smaller chats, they had mostly stopped actively messaging her due to her deliberate lack of replies.

However, it had to be said, Huang Xiu found it rather exhilarating to be a frequently mentioned, popular, and mysterious figure in other people’s conversations.

It was indeed a very satisfying feeling.

Shi Lei, however, remained steadfast in messaging her, sharing all sorts of trivialities from his life.

But Huang Xiu was sly. Although she read every message, she would intentionally wait for him to send a dozen or so messages, then reply with a single one after several tens of minutes.

She also refused to answer any of his calls.

Thus, despite the abundance of topics and things to talk about, their conversations never truly took off.

Based on her understanding of Shi Lei’s patience, this would last for another month at most before his enthusiasm would slowly wane.

As for Fang Miaoging, things had become rather strange.

In the first few days, Fang Miaoging had messaged her even more diligently than that fellow Shi Lei, constantly inviting her out to play.

However, after Huang Xiu repeatedly refused her and stated that she was indeed not in Ying City,

Fang Miaoging left a single message: ‘Just you wait until school starts,’ and hadn’t sent another message since.

‘She couldn’t have gotten angry, could she?’ Huang Xiu was actually a little apprehensive.

Unlike Shi Lei, Fang Miaoging was truly capable of seeking her out in person.

Ding-dong!

Her phone suddenly vibrated and chimed, as a new message swiftly pushed its way to the very top of the message interface.

It appeared just below the pinned class group chat.

The new message was an invitation.

It invited her to join a group chat, and the sender’s username was unfamiliar.

[Bright as a Clear Sky]

The profile picture wasn’t a common internet image, but appeared to be a photo taken with a personal phone.

It depicted a red sun, its half-face peeking out from the horizon of a turquoise-blue sea.

‘Who is this?’ Huang Xiu wondered for a moment.

Then she remembered that this person named [Bright as a Clear Sky] had suddenly added her on the night the physical examination ended.

However, she had never replied to their messages.

‘It couldn’t be another part-time job group or one of those scam groups selling courses, could it?’

Huang Xiu thought this simply because there were just too many scammers like that.

As for why there were so many, someone once gave a rather amusing answer.

Presumably, it was because there were too many fools, and they were too easy to deceive.

Today, Miss Xiu was dressed in home pajamas—a size too large, having belonged to her former male self.

Consequently, she only wore the top and simply pulled on a pair of shorts underneath.

Her fair, slender thighs emerged from beneath the pajama hem, and the pristine white light of the living room cast upon them, making them resemble white jade.

She wasn’t in a hurry to read the new message.

First, she casually tapped into the class group and unpinned it.

After setting the message notifications to ‘receive but do not alert,’

she then tapped into the new message.

“Let me take a look-see,” Huang Xiu declared with a tremble in her voice.

[Suddenly invited you to join the group chat—Tiandu University, Exploration Department, Freshman Group Chat]

“Holy crap!” The girl cursed out loud.

With a swift, practiced movement, she executed a perfect roll, her pale legs swinging forward and down.

She sprang to her feet.

“Xiu Xiu, no cursing!” Her mother’s dangerously sharp gaze drifted over from the side.

Her mother’s private lessons for Huang Xiu had now progressed to ‘A Girl’s External Words and Actions’.

Cursing was among the strictly forbidden behaviors.

“Heh heh,” her father chuckled calmly, pushing up his glasses. “What’s happened, Xiao Xiu?”

Huang Xiu presented her phone as if it were a treasured artifact. “Dad, look!”

“A freshman group chat?” Her father glanced at it before retracting his gaze.

After showing it to her father, Huang Xiu immediately tapped the link, then accepted the invitation.

She had been utterly stifled during her time at home!

Aside from her parents, only Huang Xiaoxian knew about her being an Awakened individual.

However, her parents were often not home and had no understanding of Awakened individuals.

Huang Xiaoxian was even more of a homebody than she was, nestled in a flowerpot, capable of sleeping motionless for an entire day.

Her mother had even worriedly asked her several times if this was normal.

During her time confined at home, she had found an opportunity to introduce Huang Xiaoxian to her parents.

To her surprise, her parents accepted Huang Xiaoxian with great enthusiasm.

They could even be described as extremely fond of them.

As a result, Huang Xiaoxian’s status at home now even slightly surpassed her own. (This was because Huang Xiu had simply spent too much time at home.)

And this, Miss Xiu found very displeasing.
