Chapter 64: Complete Feminization
The dreamscape ended. Qi Huang slowly opened her clear black and white eyes and found that it was already dark outside. She lifted her skirt, took off her pants, and saw that one of her feet had indeed feminized. Her two fair, jade-like legs were placed together, with no gap visible between them.
From then on, Qi Huang had been completely feminized into a complete woman.
“From today onwards, I will be a woman!”
Qi Huang’s heart was filled with mixed emotions. Perhaps there was some regret, but also some curiosity about the life of a woman. After all, she had been a man for over twenty years, had long been accustomed to seeing the world from a male perspective, and had long enjoyed others treating her as a man.
“But… how long can this woman last?”
Qi Huang immediately thought of her situation and smiled self-deprecatingly. Her identity had likely been exposed, and she would be caught sooner or later. She believed that day would not be far off, so the most important thing now was to save her father.
With that thought, Qi Huang quickly got up, washed, and then put on a veil before leaving the room. Because her feet had shrunk by several sizes, her original shoes felt like slippers and were uncomfortable to wear. Walking was also inconvenient, and her steps were clumsy. Fortunately, her skirt hid this.
When Qi Huang asked in the lobby, she learned it was already the next day. She quickly left the inn and cautiously bought a pair of women’s shoes from a nearby stall to change into, finally feeling relieved.
“Now I am exactly like Fairy Hong Ling, and I even have many of her memories. I can completely pass for the real one. Let’s see how you can tell the difference.”
Qi Huang sneered coldly, then headed towards the Yamen. However, before entering, she had to greet Miao Xiang, otherwise, it would seem too abrupt, as they were good sisters.
Qi Huang arrived near the Yamen and found Miao Xiang still secretly monitoring at the street corner. The little girl’s persistence was admirable and also her most troublesome point.
“You’re the ones who forced me into being a girl. How should I thank you!”
Qi Huang gritted her teeth in hatred, but she couldn’t show it on the surface. So, she took off her veil and walked towards Miao Xiang, following the footsteps of Fairy Hong Ling from memory.
“Junior Sister Miao Xiang!”
Qi Huang greeted her boldly upon approaching, as she was certain the fairy in front of her wouldn’t be able to recognize her true identity.
Miao Xiang jumped slightly and slowly turned her head, but instead of the usual look of surprise, she had a vigilant expression.
“Don’t come any closer! Let me see your feet first.”
Miao Xiang cautiously probed.
“It seems they really know I had a pair of men’s big feet.”
Qi Huang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she hadn’t held any侥幸, or she would be in trouble now.
Thinking this, she lifted her skirt, revealing her small feet, which were identical to Fairy Hong Ling’s, fitting perfectly in her grasp, disproportionate to her height.
“It really is you! Junior Sister Hong Ling!”
After carefully observing for a while, Miao Xiang’s pretty face brightened, and she affectionately ran over to hold Qi Huang’s hand.
“Are you suspecting I’m fake?”
Qi Huang, without betraying her composure, turned the question back.
“Oh, you can’t blame me! That imposter’s disguise skills are too superb. The only way to tell is by looking at the feet.”
Miao Xiang clung to Qi Huang’s arm, shaking it coquettishly, completely unconcerned that her chest was pressed against her.
Qi Huang felt a soft touch from her hand, and her heart fluttered uncontrollably. However, to maintain her cool demeanor, she wisely withdrew her arm and then said, feigning anger, “Remember what I said before? You can’t get too close to me.”
“Oh, don’t worry. We’ve already discussed it. We will never think of being your bait again.”
Miao Xiang’s large eyes darted around, clearly not telling the truth.
Huang Qi didn’t intend to dwell on it and curiously asked, “Senior Sister Miao Xiang, haven’t you found that imposter yet?”
“Not yet.”
Miao Xiang replied subconsciously, but then suddenly became agitated, “Junior Sister, I’ll tell you! After you left, I remembered that imposter had gone to the Yamen, so I went with a few senior sisters to ask Chief Clerk Yuan at the county office about the other party’s background.”
“And the result?”
Qi Huang asked casually, but her heart began to beat erratically again. She really hoped that Chief Clerk Yuan was an upright official who would never yield, allowing the fairies to find nothing. Then she could register and continue to hide in Huatian Village.
“As it turns out, we did find out the woman’s background. She claimed to be from the Prefecture Capital and named Qi Huang. She wanted to marry into a family in Huatian Village, but because she didn’t have a Tooth Token, she couldn’t register successfully at that time. Moreover, the man was already twenty-eight years old, and if they couldn’t complete the registration before the end of this month, he would have to join the army. So, everyone thought she had gone back to get her Tooth Token and would definitely return to the Yamen to register before turning thirty. That’s why we’re waiting here.”
Miao Xiang chattered like a nightingale.
Qi Huang’s heart grew colder with every word she heard, and her faint hope was completely dashed.
“Then why didn’t you go to the Prefecture Capital to find her?”
After a moment, Qi Huang asked unyieldingly.
“Because her identity is clearly fake! Your family is in the Prefecture Capital and is so famous. If there was a girl who looked exactly like you there, everyone would have known about it long ago.”
Miao Xiang explained.
“I see. I was indeed careless.”
Qi Huang hated herself and then asked with lingering unease, “Have you been to Huatian Village?”
“What would we go there for? She’s an unfostered daughter-in-law, she can’t stay at her fiancé’s home, right? Besides, we already know she’ll definitely come back to register, so why bother?”
Miao Xiang asked back curiously.
Qi Huang was speechless for a moment, but she was quite satisfied that her family hadn’t been disturbed.
“As long as my family isn’t implicated, I don’t mind dying!”
Qi Huang had always thought this in her heart, but before she died, she still had to register using the Tooth Token.
“That’s not right! If Chief Clerk Yuan already knows I’m an imposter, he definitely won’t register me. Although I’m not using Fairy Hong Ling’s Tooth Token, I’m wearing her face.”
Qi Huang suddenly realized this and became a little worried. So, she asked indirectly, “Did you tell Chief Clerk Yuan about the imposter impersonating me?”
“No, that’s our HongHua Sect’s own business. Why should we tell him?”
Miao Xiang asked strangely.
“That’s good! That’s good!”
A heavy stone in Qi Huang’s heart was lifted. She didn’t want to lose her male body for nothing.
“What’s good? I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
Miao Xiang frowned her delicate little brows.
“It’s nothing. You stay here and keep watch, and I’ll go in and ask Chief Clerk Yuan for more details.”
Qi Huang quickly changed the subject.
“Should we go in with you?”
Miao Xiang eagerly suggested, like a little shadow.
“Let’s not. Someone needs to watch the outside. What if that imposter comes back?”
Qi Huang retorted.
“Alright!”
Miao Xiang pouted with some reluctance, wishing she could be by Qi Huang’s side at all times.
After dealing with Miao Xiang, Qi Huang put on her veil and hurried towards the county Yamen. At this moment, she was only one step away from success.
