Ruan Yesheng, of course, didn't dare to try it out.

In the entertainment industry, every female star cherishes their face and figure. Even when they accidentally fall during filming, their instinct is to protect their face first. It has become a natural response. Although Ruan Yesheng is currently wearing the disguise of Xi Mo, she still holds strict standards for her face and figure deep down.

Therefore, Ruan Yesheng only ate what she considered a reasonable portion.

After Ruan Yesheng finished eating, Xi Mo said, "Tidy up."

Ruan Yesheng looked at her, still maintaining that commanding queen-like demeanor. She didn't say anything and quickly tidied up. Xi Mo came over, took the plastic bag, and went out to dispose of it.

"I'll be back later, open the door for me," Xi Mo said without looking back as she walked out.

"I humbly send off the Queen. Not to mention opening the door, this servant will definitely kneel to welcome you later," Ruan Yesheng said with a smile from behind.

Xi Mo really wanted to slam the door shut in Ruan Yesheng's face, but it was a hospital, so she had to maintain a quiet environment. She gently closed the door, although her hand trembled three times while gripping the doorknob.

When Xi Mo returned, Ruan Yesheng opened the door for her. "Your Majesty, you're here. Your Majesty even personally took out the trash. You must be tired." 

Xi Mo glanced at her and said, "No need to kneel. Stand by the dining table. I have something to say."

"From now on, every word I say is important. Please remember them well." 

Ruan Yesheng rested her chin on her hand, her eyes filled with charm: "Speak."

Xi Mo held the pen and started drawing on the paper. "Tomorrow, before dawn, Lu Qingming will come to pick you up and transfer you to another hospital. It's a private hospital where entertainment reporters can't enter. Lu Qingming is trustworthy. Just follow his arrangements and be careful not to reveal anything. If there's any problem, use your phone to send me a text message, and I will tell you what to do. Send one, delete one, don't leave any evidence that could be discovered."

Ruan Yesheng listened attentively without saying a word.

Xi Mo glanced at her and seemed somewhat satisfied with her seriousness. "After you're discharged, find a reason to temporarily stay at the company. Absolutely do not go back to my house. You won't be able to enter."

Ruan Yesheng responded, "You make it sound like I'm so eager to enter your house."

Xi Mo: "..."

Are you going to die if you listen carefully like before?!

Xi Mo paused for a moment, quickly drew a rough sketch on a piece of paper, and continued, "There is my exclusive room on the 24th floor of the company. Sometimes I rest there, but I don't use it much. You will stay there during this period. This is a guide to the placement of some items in the room. Familiarize yourself with it so that things won't be misplaced. The items should remain in their original positions. If anything is missing, let Lu Qingming arrange for someone to buy it. There are also a few spare cards in the safe, containing my pocket money."

Upon hearing this, Ruan Yesheng began to ponder how much that "pocket money" amounted to, possibly in the millions.

Xi Mo continued, "Keep two of the cards for yourself. I will tell you the passwords for the room, safe, and the two bank cards. Make sure you remember them correctly and don't mix them up."

Deep down, Ruan Yesheng was genuinely proud, and her eyes became calm. "You don't need to tell me the card passwords. I never use other people's money. Find an excuse to let Tangtang go to my house and bring my belongings. Then you can pass them on to me."

If it's hers, then it's hers.

If it's not hers, then it's not hers.

Xi Mo said indifferently, "Do you think I'm willing to give you money to use? I use it for my own body. Let me tell you this, since you're using my body, don't compromise it in the slightest. Buy whatever you need. I will make a list of daily care and instructions for you later. Follow it accordingly."

Xi Mo's status and income in the entertainment industry were astonishingly high, and her expenses were equally proportional. Especially in her daily life, she had demanding and high standards. Ruan Yesheng was well aware that she couldn't even come close to being compared with Xi Mo now, and her own money was indeed not enough to sustain the lifestyle of a top-tier celebrity. After a moment of silence, she nodded.

"For now, you can use it temporarily. Lu Qingming also has some of my cards for daily expenses. I'll figure out a way to transfer money to you later," Xi Mo expressed her own headaches.

After changing bodies, many things became inconvenient. Even though she knew the keys and various passwords to her home, she couldn't return there openly. Not to mention entering the house, she would probably trigger the alarm as soon as she stepped into the courtyard. She also had to be cautious about paparazzi lurking nearby, waiting to take candid photos. Wearing Ruan Yesheng's face, she had to sneak into Xi Mo's home alone, and if the paparazzi caught sight of her, it would be a catastrophe.

The important things were naturally at home. The money in the various accounts at home couldn't be accessed temporarily, let alone the daily income. Ruan Yesheng wasn't the real Xi Mo, so she couldn't access them. On the other hand, while wearing Ruan Yesheng's identity, she knew all the details but couldn't approach them freely.

In this society, if one lost their own identity, they would be restricted in every step, unable to even enter their own home.

"What about you?" Ruan Yesheng noticed the hidden displeasure in Xi Mo's expression and asked her.

"You take two cards for yourself. Find an opportunity to discreetly pass the remaining ones to Feng Tangtang and have her give them to me," Xi Mo said. "I believe you know how to handle it. Let's solve the immediate problem first and think about the rest later."

As she spoke, she handed the carefully prepared list of instructions to Ruan Yesheng. "I'm allergic to seafood, so have absolutely no contact with it in your diet. Take a careful look at the rest."

Ruan Yesheng was well aware of this particular condition. She picked up the list, seemingly casual as she supported her chin and scanned it.

After a quick scan, it was evident that the Queen had extremely demanding preferences in her daily life.

"Are there any specific health considerations on your side? For example, any allergies?" Xi Mo asked casually. "Make a list for me, and I'll take care of it on your behalf."

"No," Ruan Yesheng replied in a servile tone. "This humble servant is well aware of Your Majesty's delicate health. Even if Your Majesty were to drag this servant's body and sleep on the street immediately, this servant would have no complaints. Of course, this servant knows that Your Majesty would never sleep on the street."

Xi Mo: "..."

I really want to kill you right now!

After finishing reading, Ruan Yesheng raised her gaze and looked at Xi Mo. "I don't have many requirements for you. Just pay attention to maintaining your physique and such, as I still have work to do. Additionally, you cannot stay at my house."

"I will find another place to stay." 

"When I left, besides my mobile phone, I had my ID card and keys in my bag. They should be kept by Tangtang. Did she give them to you?"

"She gave them all to me. They are in my hospital room. I need the ID card, but I will return the keys to you later."

Ruan Yesheng pondered with her head down and said, "You can temporarily keep the keys for a few days. Go to my house and take some essentials, documents, and my work arrangements for later. After that, you can return them to me. Only take what you need, and please don't rummage through anything else."

 Xi Mo sneered, "Not interested."

Ruan Yesheng fell silent.

Xi Mo continued, "As for what you need, you can simply ask Lu Qingming. He will make the arrangements."

The two of them exchanged a lot of information while sitting across from each other. With the body swap, their identities naturally changed. Everything was swapped, and if they didn't negotiate in advance, it would undoubtedly lead to many troubles.

Xi Mo burned the written papers. It was already late in the evening, past ten o'clock.

Ruan Yesheng said, "It's getting late. Isn't Your Majesty going back to the palace? This servant needs to get up early tomorrow. Doesn't Eunuch Lu have some arrangements?"

Xi Mo coldly glared at her and asked, "When do you plan to take a bath?"

"I can go and take one now," Ruan Yesheng replied, standing up. Then she suddenly turned back and looked at Xi Mo, asking, "Wait, what do you intend to do?"

"I'll wait for you to take a bath."

Ruan Yesheng blushed and said with coyness: "Bathe together?"

Xi Mo really wanted to slap her to death, but when she saw her own face, she couldn't bring herself to do it.

Ruan Yesheng brought the clothes for bathing, and Xi Mo watched her enter the bathroom. She said in a slow and deliberate tone, "When you're bathing, close your eyes. If you look around, I'll gouge out your eyes. If you touch anything randomly, I'll cut off your hand. I'll give you a designated time, and I'll be timing outside. Don't lock the door; I'll be checking."

Ruan Yesheng raised an eyebrow slightly while holding the clothes and said, "Should I close my eyes even when picking up the shower gel? It would be inconvenient if I close my eyes while reaching for the shower gel if it accidentally falls."

Xi Mo had a cold expression on her face.

This person is simply insane!

She even wants to pick up the shower gel! What if the soap falls, do you expect me to drag my body to pick up the soap?

Ruan Yesheng expressed her concern, "What if I slip and fall while picking up the shower gel and accidentally injure your precious body? What should I do then?"

"Go in," Xi Mo coldly uttered two words.

Ruan Yesheng smiled and entered.

"Don't lock it." Xi Mo firmly held onto the door, looking serious. It seemed that her previous statement was not a joke.

Ruan Yesheng was defeated and had no choice but to leave the door unlocked. After all, she doesn't expect Xi Mo to come in.

The bathroom was brightly lit, the light pure white. Ruan Yesheng tilted her head and silently looked at herself in the mirror—or rather, the face that originally belonged to Xi Mo.

Her slender fingers touched the buttons of the hospital gown, slowly unfastening two of them. The collarbone emerged from beneath the tightly wrapped fabric, resembling spread wings of a butterfly. Delicate and slender, Ruan Yesheng looked at it, and her hand trembled slightly. As she touched the skin and explored downward, she felt a mix of nervousness and an indescribable pleasure.

In the past, she could only look from a distance, even when they met, there was always a layer of cold estrangement. Xi Mo had always been distant, exuding a sense of abstinence. But now, as the clothing gradually peeled away, this alluring beauty hidden beneath the fabric unfolded like a blooming, immaculate petal, captivating the heart.

She could finally touch her.

She never expected it to happen in this way. Looking at herself in the mirror, it felt as if she was peeping into the most intimate parts of Xi Mo in a different way.

Even though her fingers were controlled by her own thoughts and this body now belonged to her, as she touched it, the faint sense of joy faded and was replaced by an indescribable feeling of shame that made her feel so hot, as if she could melt away.

Ruan Yesheng instinctively closed her eyes and walked to the showerhead to begin bathing.

Her mind suddenly became chaotic. The previous sensations seemed like a desecration of the original owner of this body. With a determined expression, she closed her eyes and dared not think further.

When did a normal shower become such a burden?

Outside, Xi Mo became even more restless.

Losing control of her own body, not even being able to see her own physical self, the anxious and uneasy emotions overwhelmed her. If she had been forcing herself to endure before, now, as she sat outside waiting, the mere thought of Ruan Yesheng showering inside made her feel like she was going crazy.

Ten minutes passed, and Xi Mo suddenly stood up, pushing the door and rushing into the bathroom.

Sensing someone entering, Ruan Yesheng instinctively crouched down, hugging herself. The bottle of shower gel naturally fell, but everything happened too quickly for her to open her eyes.

Xi Mo: "..." She had only entered anxiously to confirm, but she didn't expect Ruan Yesheng to truly keep her promise and keep her eyes closed.

Ruan Yesheng saw Xi Mo, and her face instantly turned red. In that moment, the inherent shyness that a woman feels when her body is seen unconsciously appeared on her expression, fully evident.

She exclaimed anxiously, "What are you doing?! You actually came in!"

At a time like this, it was purely instinctual, forgetting that she was using someone else's body, believing that she had been completely exposed. Even though she knew the body was not her own, the fact of being completely naked always brought about a sense of exposed shyness. It was evident that shame was not about physical exposure, but about the soul.

Xi Mo's ears turned red, and her cheeks slightly flushed. With lightning speed, she quickly closed the bathroom door, as if trying to cover up what she had seen.

She said sullenly outside the door: "I was looking at my own body, there's no problem with that at all."

Ruan Yesheng: "..."

Ruan Yesheng adjusted her emotions and chuckled inside, "Later, when you take a shower, I'll just help you wash. I'll be washing my own body, so there's no problem at all."

Xi Mo: "You should pick up your shower gel first."
