Cross-dressing to Seduce My Straight Roommate - Chapter 14

“Thank you, Brother User, for the ten sets of little hearts~”

 

“Thank you, Sister Strawberry, for the popularity votes~”

 

“Thank you, Sister Milk Tea, for the heart-blowing bunny~”

 

Pei Xi leaned closer to the camera and made a heart shape with his hands. Today, he was wearing sweet-girl makeup—a thin layer of pink-orange eyeshadow with sparkling glitter dots at the corners of his eyes, resembling tiny diamonds. He had chosen light brown colored contact lenses, making his gaze appear dewy, innocent, and pure.

 

His hair was tied into two buns, fastened with pink-and-white ribbons tied into little bows. Wispy curls framed his face, cascading softly around his ears.

 

He wore a pink-and-white Lolita dress, its inner layers a cascade of lace and sheer chiffon, fluffy and soft. With even the slightest movement, the skirt swayed gently, like a cloud of cotton candy.

 

【Today’s look is so adorable! Like a little bunny!】

 

【Totally a little cupcake—I just want to take a bite (drooling.jpg)】

 

【This dress is so pretty! Which brand is it from?】

 

“Good evening! How come so many of you are here as soon as I started streaming? Were you all waiting in my livestream room?” Pei Xi smiled shyly as he read the flood of compliments on the screen. He picked up the pearl milk tea beside him and took a sip. The tea was made by his mom, with pearls cooked to a soft, chewy texture and just the right level of sweetness.

 

【I’ve been refreshing the homepage nonstop!!】

 

【Wuwuwu, I’ve been waiting for half an hour!】

 

“I had some errands to run this afternoon and got back a bit late, so I’m running behind schedule.” Pei Xi sounded a little guilty, his voice soft and light, with an unconsciously rising tone at the end, as if he were coquettishly pleading. “You’ll forgive me, right?”

 

【So cute!! Stop being coquettish!!】

 

【I won’t forgive you unless you give me a kiss (drooling.jpg)】

 

【Since you were half an hour late, you should make up for it by streaming until midnight tonight, right? Raise your hands if you agree!】

 

Pretending not to see the comments, Pei Xi quickly changed the subject. “There are so many people in the livestream today. Let’s do a lucky draw—the prize is a Polaroid photo.”

 

【？？？】

 

【Ahhh, a Polaroid?!】

 

【I really want it!!】

 

【Xiao Bao, can’t you just rig it for me?!】

 

【Listen up, everyone—Xiao Bao updated his homepage with new content. Go check it out!】

 

【Oh my god, that’s so sneaky! I’m not leaving this livestream!!】

 

Watching the viewer count in his livestream room continuously rise, Pei Xi felt a bit nervous. Ever since he publicly came out, his popularity hadn’t declined. Instead, it showed signs of steadily increasing. Now, his follower count had surpassed the 1.5 million mark.

 

【Will you be doing a collab stream with a male host again today? I’m so looking forward to it! (rubbing hands like a fly.jpg)】

 

“Yes, we’ll be connecting with another host today.” Pei Xi nodded and set his milk tea aside.

 

Ever since he used a voice changer to connect with other male hosts last time, this kind of interaction had become a regular feature of his livestreams.

 

Pei Xi owned several voice changers with different tones, which he adjusted according to his makeup each day.

 

“How does today’s voice sound?” He cleared his throat and tested it out. The clear, youthful tone of a girl, combined with the unique gentleness of a Qiaochuan Islander, made his voice sound sweet and soft.

 

【So sweet (lecherous.jpg)】

 

【I can’t handle this】

 

【No coquettishness allowed!!】

 

“I’m not being coquettish…” Unable to handle the teasing, Pei Xi guiltily averted his gaze from the camera.

 

The match connected quickly, and a boy with distinctive silver-white hair appeared on the screen. Pei Xi recognized him—his unique hair color and manga-like face made him one of the platform’s popular streamers.

 

【Nan Nan !!! My two favorite streamers are on the same screen—what a dream collaboration!】

 

Pei Xi quickly regained his composure and was the first to greet him: “Good evening~”

 

He spoke in a deliberately high-pitched voice, and even he felt a shiver run down his spine at the sound.

 

Nan Nan  on the other end clearly paused for a moment upon hearing his voice, frowning and muttering, “Where did this fake-voiced weirdo come from?”

 

But the moment he saw Pei Xi’s face clearly, his expression instantly changed.

 

“Good evening, miss~”

 

Pei Xi leaned in close to the screen, staring intently with his large, sparkling eyes. The light brown colored contacts made his gaze look dewy, innocent, and utterly guileless.

 

Nan Nan  instinctively straightened his posture, smoothing the bangs on his forehead. He cleared his throat lightly and asked, “What should we play?”

 

Suppressing a laugh, Pei Xi continued using the voice changer: “Would you like to do a PK match, handsome?”

 

“Is there a penalty for losing?” Nan Nan  stared at Pei Xi’s face, his gaze drifting slightly. “Your voice is quite pleasant. How about the loser sings a song?”

 

【Nan Nan , snap out of it!!】

 

【He’s blushing, he’s blushing!】

 

【Another one fooled by Xixi】

 

【Does Nan Nan  think he’s definitely going to win?! Hahahaha!】

 

【We want to hear Xixi sing—User Bro, maybe skip this round?】

 

“Sure.” Pei Xi started the PK match, turned off the voice chat, and glanced at the live stream comments. “Do you all want to hear me sing using this voice changer?”

 

【Yes, yes, yes!!】

 

“Is that so?” Pei Xi couldn’t help but laugh. “Then let’s keep it casual. Just send a few gifts casually.”

 

Fans either lit up their badges or sent 【Shine for You】 gifts to increase their intimacy points.

 

Everything was going according to plan when suddenly, Pei Xi noticed a small bottle icon lingering by his mouth on the screen—a Douyin gift effect.

 

【User10557880 sent Vinegar Bottle × 99】

 

【User10557880 sent Vinegar Bottle × 113】

 

【User10557880 sent Vinegar Bottle × 330】

 

【User10557880】 kept manually sending him gifts. Pei Xi widened his eyes slightly, watching his points skyrocket and instantly surpass Nan Nan ’s score.

 

【Hahaha, User Bro is still clicking!!】

 

【User Bro’s message: I don’t want to lose, I want to win.】

 

【Why vinegar bottles though? So hard to guess (side-eye smiley.jpg)】

 

“Thank you, User Bro, for the vinegar bottles.” Pei Xi stared in surprise as his score climbed higher and higher. User Bro’s vinegar bottles kept piling up, and he couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Why are you suddenly sending so many vinegar bottles?”

 

Was it because he didn’t want to hear him sing with the voice changer?

 

Or simply because he didn’t want him to lose the PK?

 

【Tsk tsk, am I noticing something here?】

 

【What’s the meaning behind this, User Bro? Really hard to guess, huh.】

 

Although Nan Nan  had a deep pool of gifts, User Bro kept manually sending vinegar bottles, continuing even after the PK ended. With over 50,000 points, he won the PK match.

 

Nan Nan  turned on her mic and said with a hint of regret, “What a shame, I was really looking forward to hearing you sing.”

 

Pei Xi: “Well…”

 

The words “it’s not impossible” got stuck in his throat, and he swallowed them back down.

 

[User 10557880 sent Vinegar Bottle × 1]

 

[User 10557880: No, not allowed, I forbid it.]

 

A golden bullet comment floated across the screen. Pei Xi was slightly taken aback and only snapped back to reality after Nan Nan  called his name a few times. He turned on his mic and chuckled softly, “What song would you like to sing?”

 

Nan Nan  was stunned for a moment. “I thought you were going to say you’d sing.”

 

Pei Xi glanced at [User 10557880], who was still frantically “handcrafting” vinegar bottles, turned off his voice changer, and teased, “My top supporter says no.”

 

Hearing his voice, Nan Nan  nearly jumped out of her chair. “Wait, wait… miss—oh no, you’re a guy?!”

 

Pei Xi: “Yeah, just one of the bros.”

 

Nan Nan : “…”

 

[Hahahaha I’m dying at Nan Nan’s expression]

 

[Nan Nan: My world is collapsing]

 

[Nan Nan really never learns, she got tricked by another cross-dressing streamer just last week]

 

After listening to her sing, Pei Xi ended the call.

 

[User 10557880 sent Little Hearts × 520]

 

“Thank you, User-ge, for the little hearts.” Pei Xi made a heart gesture toward the camera and smiled. “How about I sing a song for User-ge?”

 

[User 10557880 sent Douyin No. 1 × 1]

 

Pei Xi opened the song he had saved for a long time, cleared his throat nervously, and avoided looking at the camera.

 

[Wait!!! Isn’t this… “The Eight-Line Coquettish Song”??]

 

“Gege~ is that okay?”

 

“Gege~ please, pretty please?”

 

“Gege~ I’m begging you~”

 

“Gege~ can I, can I?”

 

“Gege~ I don’t care~”

 

“Gege~ you’re the best~”

 

“Gege~ I love you~”

 

“Gege~ I want it~”

 

After mustering the courage to finish singing, Pei Xi’s face was flushed with embarrassment. He took a few tactical sips of his bubble tea and cautiously asked, “It wasn’t too bad, was it?”

 

[User 10557880 sent Carnival × 1]

 

[User 10557880 sent Carnival × 5]

 

[User 10557880 sent Carnival × 30]

 

[User-ge has gone absolutely wild!!]

 

[Completely swept off his feet, lost in the moment]

 

[Xiao Bao is just too good at this, if I were User-ge, I’d go crazy too]

 

Pei Xi squinted at the bullet comments and realized User-ge had sent him a ton of Carnivals. He quickly said, “That’s too much, you really don’t have to send more. You’ve already given me so many gifts today.”

 

[User 10557880: It was really good. Can you sing it again?]

 

[Hahahaha I knew it!]

 

Pei Xi’s face felt warm, and he whispered, “I’ll record it for you after the stream.”

 

Come to think of it, this was the first time User-ge had ever asked him for a “favor.”

 

[???]

 

[No way, we want to hear it too!]

 

“That depends on whether my brother is willing to post the video.” Pei Xi directly tossed the tricky question to [User 10557880]. It was his first time trying this style of song, and the heat on his face lingered, refusing to fade. He glanced at the clock hanging on the wall and quickly added, “It’s already very late, so let’s end the stream here for today. Everyone, get some rest early. Good night.”

 

Without waiting for his fans to react, he promptly shut down the livestream. Then, he slumped into his chair, letting out a long sigh of relief.

 

“Whew.”

 

That was just too embarrassing.
