Many Light Cloud users had their day started much like Zeng Lian.
"Fox" was on the daily hits, which means that it was recommended directly to the more active users. As such, in the more active community of Light Cloud, the song had caused quite a stir...
The analytics were slowly rising...
In fact, the song's ripples swept up the community so quickly, Tang Miaoyi was one of the few people on Light Cloud unaware of its success.
She never thought that her song could pass the review the day she uploaded it, considering how rigorous the review process is normally. So, after adding "Fox", she didn't sit waiting for results, but had a bath, and went to sleep.

When the sun rose into the horizon, Tang Miaoyi was shaken from her dreams by An Qiuying. She was sleeping so deeply, Qiuying needed to use considerable force.
But...
Waking up is one thing, getting out of bed is another entirely.
"C'mon, you have to get up!"
An Qiuying looked helplessly at Tang Miaoyi who was curled up under her blanket and rubbed her temples, feeling the beginnings of a headache.
"Hmm ~ another 5 minutes." Tang Miaoyi's reaction was to grip the quilt tighter, covering her head, "5 minutes can't hurt anyone."
"No, this is the fourth five minutes you've said..." An Qiuying's face darkened, "If you don't get up now, you'll be late for class."
"..."
The only response she received was light breathing, and the quilt rising and falling rhythmically.
A black line slowly appeared on An Qiuying's forehead: "Miss Class President, I think it's time to have a meeting with the head teacher. I wonder what would happen if I said you hadn't felt sick at all..."
Rustle~~
A corner of the blanket flipped over.
Tang Miaoyi's head popped out, mild fear in her eyes, and she said: "You can't! You're staying in my house, how could you do that to me?"
"Hehe..." An Qiuying replied slyly "Miss President, I know you have work to do in dreamland, but you're gonna be late for a test soon."
Huh? Test?
Tang Miaoyi's expression froze.
"Fine, I'll get up now." Tang Miaoyi reluctantly agreed and began to get up.
She wasn't used to this at all! It had been a few years since she had gone to college after all. This early riser lifestyle threw her off completely.
I should indeed go to a class, but considering I'm already in trouble for skipping, I should clean myself up a bit.
Tang Miaoyi dragged her feet to the bathroom, and after washing up, she combed her hair, which woke her up completely. She then made herself a quick breakfast of jam and toast.
"Let's go." After eating, Tang Miaoyi carried her schoolbag on her back vigorously, signaling An Qiuying to leave.
"You...just wear this to school?" An Qiuying looked Tang Miaoyi up and down with horror.
The clothes Tang Miaoyi was wearing were the pyjamas she found in her closet last night, which contrasted greatly with An Qiuying's school uniform.
"Yeah, what's the matter?" Tang Miaoyi was a little puzzled and looked down at her clothes.
What could possibly be wrong...
"Don't you have a school uniform?" An Qiuying asked with a puzzled expression.
"School uniform?" Tang Miaoyi was taken aback for a moment, her eyes glanced at An Qiuying's clothing, creased skirt...white stockings...
"Does it really matter that much?" After realizing her mistake, Tang Miaoyi felt a little uneasy, and Qiuying could clearly hear a lack of confidence in her voice: "Can I go without a uniform?"
Unlike her previous life, uniforms in this world were not optional, and not something as loose as a dress code, but serious-looking shirts, short skirts and stockings!!
This is too hard!
If she were a man subjected to these uniforms, with long pants and a normal shirt, she wouldn't feel so conflicted. Unfortunately, on the other side of the aisle, things aren't so easy...
It's not like they're bad to wear, and she might even enjoy trying them on in private, but if you wear them for everyone to see... it's a tough decision.
"You will be punished for not wearing it." An Qiuying said seriously.
"It doesn't matter if I get punished for this one thing." Tang Miaoyi stood strong, with a face full of resistance, "I don't want to wear this."
"You have missed three days of class, how much time are you already gonna spend just to catch up?"
"But my school uniform is- ehh...." Tang Miaoyi was about to continue to argue, but An Qiuying not waiting for her to finish, grabbed her hand and dragged her to the bedroom.
Arriving at the bedroom and opening the closet, An Qiuying pointed to the school uniform hanging right in the middle and said, "Isn't this your school uniform? Put it on quickly, we're running out of time still."
Tang Miaoyi raised her head, her eyes silently pleading,
"..."
Is this the end?
The two little devils in Tang Miaoyi's heart began to fight.
An epic battle of monstrous proportions waged in her heart. Lightning and fire raged, as counter after counter was fired by the little demons.
"She can't possibly do it!" The first one raged. They gathered power slowly, the battlefield amplifying in pitch as they continued, and they released a concentrated blast of pure light at the other demon.
"This uniform was approved by the school board! It's perfectly normal!" The other shouted, and countered the light beam directly, with a shadow beam of their own.
The battle raged on, neither side gaining an edge over one another. The outside world looked like it was in slow motion, but that's just how fast the two were moving. The fight transcended the physical world. It was moving at the speed of thought!
But eventually, the stalemate was broken.
"Those clothes are too girly for her!" The first demon argued, and once again, fired their signature light beam.
"Who said a man can't wear girly clothes? What are you, HOMOPHOBIC!?!?!?!?" The second devil exploded, and in a stroke of brilliance, they used ice instead of darkness to create a small blue square.
The laser quickly smashed into the ice square, but instead of smashing right through, like the first devil expected, it bounced right back at them.
"What? NO, you created a mirror!" the first lamented, and since they had just attacked, they were in no position to deflect the oncoming laser.
*Boom*
The devil was defeated. The second devil stood triumphant and looked out at his charge.
"I'll always protect you, my lady."

Tang Miaoyi didn't know what to think. On the one hand, it wouldn't do her any harm, on the other, hand, she used to be a guy, and her sense of shame was completely sqeued.
"Then... can you please go out for a while, I need to change my clothes."
Before she realized what she had done, she had already made her decision. Weird...
"OK." An Qiuying said and walked away to give her privacy.
'What the hell am I talking about?'
After An Qiuying went out, Tang Miaoyi mustered up her courage and took out her school uniform.
"I'm going to die. I'll die of shame"
Having no other option, Tang Miaoyi slowly bent down and meticulously took off each garment.
Hidden by her pyjamas lay a small unblemished body. Tang Miaoyi looked down at herself.
Her height is around 149 cm (4'8", for all you "Americans"), which while low, is still barely within the normal range for a girl her age. Her skin is as smooth as velvet and even reflects a glimmer of light from the sun.
'Still not used to this.' she thought.
She took the top of the school uniform and put it on her body directly. When Tang Miaoyi's fingers brushed over her delicate skin, she felt a slight tingling.
Next, is the skirt and stockings...
"How can you be comfortable wearing these?"
After putting on the stockings, Tang Miaoyi was a little surprised at how soft they felt and was pleasantly surprised at the snug feeling they gave her.
Warmer than expected...
It doesn't seem that bad?
Unknowingly, her mentality had changed. Maybe she was just imagining it, but she felt much more confident in herself, and her body after she crossed over.
Eventually, she put her full uniform on and was promptly dragged to school by An Qiuying.
They arrived in the classroom with almost no time to spare, but luckily they had made it before the first bell, so An Qiuying breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, one thing Tang Miaoyi did not expect was that as soon as she entered the classroom, she was greeted by all the students in the class. Afterwards, many students raised concerns about her physical condition.
This caught Tang Miaoyi off guard for a while and made her want to complain a little.
Why didn't this happen in her previous life?
