Ch. 146
Lin Nan's embarrassment was about to kill him.
If other classmates discovered him standing in the girls' line, they might just tease him at most, but being discovered by the academic advisor... that would probably be more than just teasing.
"Um..." He didn't know how to explain himself, just seeing the advisor's eyes full of suspicion, feeling like he was already being suspected of being some kind of pervert.
But he couldn't explain at all. He hung his head sheepishly, face flushed red, obediently waiting for the advisor's scolding. However, his feet refused to budge even a step from the girls' queue. He couldn't accept letting a group of people watch him lift his clothes to expose his belly. If things went too far, the doctor might even require him to take off his shirt entirely.
But the advisor was encountering this situation for the first time too. He scratched his head, not knowing what to say.
"Don't do this again!" After holding it in for a long time, he finally managed to squeeze out this painless scolding.
I'm really not suited to be an advisor... Besides, this kind of thing is way too rare.
He'd only been an advisor for less than two years, and was just a part-time graduate student. Of course he couldn't improve himself like those full-time advisors. Plus he was only a few years older than these sophomore students, so he had no idea how to establish authority among students. The only thing he could do was put on a stern face to intimidate people.
His stern expression was indeed quite frightening. Lin Nan mistakenly thought the advisor was angry and hurriedly left the queue.
"Fine, I just won't go..."
Anyway, after you leave I can come back and queue up again without anyone knowing.
Or I'll just wait another two hours. After all the classmates finish their exams and no one recognizes me, then I'll come do the physical exam. At worst I'll just get another scolding when I hand the form to the advisor.
Lin Nan carefully lifted his head to observe the advisor's expression, and saw that his face seemed to have softened considerably.
"Um... what was your name again...?" Lin Nan asked hesitantly.
"You don't even know your advisor's name? How have you been studying these past two years?" The advisor was amused by his exasperation, but looking down at Lin Nan's pitiful big eyes, he had the illusion of facing a cute girl. That anger instantly dissipated by more than half. He just mentioned his name, somewhat embarrassedly touching his nose. "Zheng Qian. Just call me Advisor Zheng."
Hearing this name, Lin Nan immediately felt much closer to the advisor: "Qian as in ‘making money’?"
"Qian from 'heaven and earth'!"
Zheng Qian emphasized. It was precisely because of the ambiguous name that he couldn't establish authority among students. He was deliberately downplaying the existence of this name, even using "Advisor Zheng" instead of his name in the class group chat.
He watched Lin Nan's departing figure and sighed. This was the first class he was leading, and he'd already encountered such an odd student. And not only odd, but pretty too.
It must be all that crossdressing trap content online corrupting today's young people! Bilibili is ruining the country!
He lowered his head to look at the wallpaper on his phone and coughed lightly, then waved over the class monitor: "After you collect the physical exam forms, bring them to my office. I have other matters to attend to."
On the other side, Lin Nan finally met up with Chen Yao.
Chen Yao had just walked out of the vision test room when he came face to face with Lin Nan, who had just left Zheng Qian.
"How many tests have you done?"
"Just height and weight, plus a color vision test." Lin Nan quickly moved closer. By Chen Yao's side, he immediately felt much more at ease. He also forgot about being scolded earlier and instead complained to Chen Yao, "That doctor said my color vision was fine, but I clearly had some color weakness before. When I told him he didn't believe me."
"Really? I don't remember you having color weakness."
"I couldn’t differentiate similar colors, but I never mentioned it." Lin Nan was a bit confused. Although having his color weakness cured was good news, he suspected this might be an unexpected benefit from the feminization process.
Could the fatty liver from his previous hospital checkup also be cured?
Lin Nan followed beside Chen Yao, preparing to do other tests together while asking: "Have you done the internal medicine exam yet? How was it?"
"Lie down, expose your belly, listen to your heart, poke your kidneys, roughly like that." When Chen Yao said this, he pursed his lips in dissatisfaction. "Damn, the feeling of lying there being watched by several people really sucked."
"Like that?" Lin Nan felt apprehensive. Usually when fully dressed and even wearing a jacket it was still okay, but if he had to lie there and lift his clothes, the curve of his chest would definitely be seen clearly by other students, right?
Just thinking about that scene, Lin Nan's face, which still had some lingering redness, burned even hotter.
"You go check your vision first, I'll wait for you here." Chen Yao scanned the surroundings and didn't see any familiar faces, so he simply leaned against the wall and urged Lin Nan, "Go quickly, or there'll be another queue when more people come."
"Mm."
He sighed lightly and looked toward the direction he'd come from. The advisor seemed to have indeed left, so after checking his vision he could continue to slip into the girls' queue.
Actually he didn't want to do this either. Originally he extremely rejected any feminine items and didn't want to be treated as female. But the problem was he even less wanted to lie there lifting his clothes to be watched by several people.
Although those people wouldn't say anything to his face, nine times out of ten they'd gossip about him after he left.
His vision was fine, so the test was naturally quick. Walking out of the room, he moved close to Chen Yao again and said quietly: "In a bit, go over there and help me see if the advisor has come. I'm going to queue up."
"Why watch for the advisor?" Chen Yao was completely confused.
"I'm going to the girls' side for the internal medicine exam." Although Lin Nan felt this was quite shameful, after unlocking magic multiple times his moral boundaries had long since fallen to the ground. With a bit of blush on his face, he still proudly showed off his cleverness: "I haven't filled in my name or gender on the form yet! The doctor definitely won't be able to tell."
Chen Yao nodded. Knowing Lin Nan's situation, he didn't think there was any problem with this operation.
So one kept watch while Lin Nan hurried to do the internal medicine exam. Sure enough, after entering the room alone, the female doctor didn't notice he was "male" at all. She examined him just like the other girls, marked a check on the exam form, and waved for him to leave.
Lin Nan felt incredibly fortunate about his clever wit. However, as soon as he stepped outside, he discovered Liu Xuefei standing right at the door, staring with wide eyes.
"???" She looked at Lin Nan coming out of the room in bewilderment, even doubting whether she'd almost gone through the wrong door. But looking at the temporary door sign again, she suddenly realized: "You really are a girl!"
"Why do I run into you everywhere?" Lin Nan looked completely hopeless.
He had absolutely no idea how to explain this.
