Last night, she tested the difference between her current body and the female body she could transform into for three hours a day.
Excluding physiological differences, the most intuitive one was that the female body didn't have ALS or muscle atrophy, yet it miraculously inherited the original body's weakness.
She would experience chest tightness, shortness of breath, and feel weak all over.
But after +1 Constitution, where a normal Constitution in the game is 10 points, the female body in reality is 5 points.
She could walk without a cane, everyday actions didn't require as much effort, and the probability of symptoms like coughing blood and spasms significantly decreased.
In contrast, his male body previously had 4 points of Constitution; he would need to rest after taking a few steps with a cane, and even prolonged sitting would make him tired, making it difficult to stand up.
However, after a day of this routine, Xia Che clearly felt that her condition had not continued to worsen.
Moreover, her strength and spirit were better than usual.
He guessed that this +1 Constitution was directly reflected in the female body created by this magical game.
But his own body would also be partially affected, recovering, but only a little; it should be around 4.2 Constitution now.
The game rewards were linked to the game's creations, and this was the only explanation he could offer.
“Sigh, if only I had chosen a male character when I entered the game world!”
The boomerang came back a bit quickly, but that wasn't something to consider now.
Because he saw that in the game, Xu Yiran's gray-haired little figure had already gotten up, opened her door, and walked out into the living room.
He poked her head.
"Confused, a little puzzled..."
Does this mean she's not fully awake?
“Forget it, let's enter the game first.”
This white-haired Xiao Jiahuo was far more important than himself.
seven-day girlfriend, activate!
And within the game world, the white-haired Xiao Jiahuo, whom Xia Che had been thinking about, was standing in the hallway from her room to the living room, tilting her head slightly, her gaze puzzled.
Because Xia Che, sitting directly in front of her, was staring wide-eyed, as if dazed, looking blankly at the ceiling.
—No soul.
Xu Yiran's amber eyes were filled with confusion, and she felt it most directly.
Uh, she's back.
The girl blinked again and saw Xia Che sit up from the sofa, her tone similar to last night, with a hint of concern but also a touch of nonchalance.
“How did you sleep? Are you hungry?”
Xia Che remembered the daily task and was about to raise her hand as she walked over to Xu Yiran.
The girl immediately bared her small mouth, covered her head, and took quick, small steps, retreating several paces.
She pressed her body against the wall, like a little cat with its fur bristling.
This made Xia Che's hand, suspended in the air, instantly freeze in place.
“Really, I can't even touch her head?”
The girl shook her head desperately, not speaking, but clearly indicating her stance.
Although she and Xia Che now shared a relationship as accomplices.
Her extreme wariness still made her view Xia Che as a stranger.
Is even the daily task that difficult to complete?
Forcibly touching her wouldn't be impossible, but it would decrease favorability, so it's better to give up for now.
Xia Che lowered her hand and then said to Xu Yiran, “Then you go wash up first. There are new toothbrushes and towels under the sink, everything you need. After you wash up, have some breakfast, and then we can talk slowly.”
Talking was a must.
Today was the second day, and in the first playthrough, today was still the beginner tutorial, so no negative events would occur. She could understand Xu Yiran without pressure and freely increase favorability.
But by tomorrow, the inhumane production team would start arranging death events.
Xia Che turned around to check the progress of the human-machine work.
The floor was mopped, but not clean.
An apple was peeled, but the entire apple had shrunk.
Heating water was fine, and the porridge she cooked even thoughtfully added some minced meat, which smelled quite good.
When she wasn't transmigrated into the game, the character controlled by the system, while capable of doing work, was clearly not proficient in anything.
At least this porridge smelled quite good and didn't seem to have any problems.
“Xiao Jiahuo, I'm going downstairs to buy some steamed buns. Don't run around, okay?”
There was still no verbal response, but she saw Xu Yiran nod.
“Sure enough, it's the same as the first playthrough. Before the relationship improves, this girlfriend won't even speak.”
The start was even worse than Diligent Girl Hilett; at least she allowed head pats.
She went downstairs and turned left after exiting the residential area.
“Xiao Che, good morning. Take a portion of steamed buns. Do you want soy milk?”
“No, thank you, Aunt Wang. Just put it on my tab for now.”
“Alright!”
When she returned, she chatted with Grandpa Dongfang, the gatekeeper, for two minutes, which again made Xia Che sigh, realizing that in this game world, everyone assumed she was a girl.
Even her relationship with her ex-girlfriend was the same as in reality.
However…
She was a girl now, and her ex-girlfriend was also a girl. This integration with the real world was too illogical!
Upon returning home, Xia Che found that Xu Yiran, who had already finished washing up, was pulling the large mop, laboriously rubbing it on the floor.
Seeing Xia Che open the door and walk in, she abruptly hid the mop behind her back.
But that mop was taller than her, so how could she hide it?
She saw the floor wasn't clean, so she took the initiative to mop it?
Xia Che couldn't help but chuckle and quip, “She even knows to take the initiative to mop the floor; isn't that quite well-behaved? Yet she won't even let me pat her head.”
Xu Yiran pouted, then quickly shook her head, hugged the mop, and ran into the bathroom.
On the dining table, there were two steaming bowls of minced meat porridge.
Somehow, she felt a little relieved?
There were many problems with the girl, but she wasn't without redeeming qualities.
Xia Che sat down and couldn't help but recall Xu Yiran's expression when she fiercely stabbed someone yesterday afternoon.
Her amber eyes, in that instant, seemed to turn somewhat reddish-brown.
“This doesn't match the character setting of the first playthrough. Is this what was meant by the difficulty increase mentioned in the previous introduction?”
“Is it because my transmigration has increased the uncertainty?”
Xia Che couldn't figure it out, but she believed that their relationship needed a good discussion.
Otherwise, if Xu Yiran wouldn't even speak or interact, how could she increase favorability?
In the first playthrough, once the daily action time arrived, wanting to pat her head or chat was just a click away for interaction.
The predetermined program had become a living person.
“Let's have breakfast first. Then we also need to talk about our current situation.”
Xia Che and Xu Yiran sat across from each other at the table. She looked into the other's eyes, while Xu Yiran timidly avoided her gaze.
Xia Che sighed, “Xiao Jiahuo, you can't be like this. You don't want to talk to me, you don't want to interact with me, you don't even want to look at me. Tell me, what does it all mean for me to be busy doing all this for you?”
Xu Yiran opened her mouth but still didn't speak.
However, her head did turn, lifting slightly. Whether from timidity or embarrassment, she tried hard not to avert her gaze.
You said I wouldn't look at you.
Then let's start with eye contact.
