I Don’t Want to Be Turned into a Girl by Magic

This was the first time Zheng Qian discovered he was actually interested in 3D traps.

His gaze at Lin Nan was naked and undisguised, his heart beating violently. In just a moment, his face flushed red, a rush of blood surging to his head, making his body tremble slightly.

Was this the legendary love at first sight?

But he'd seen him several times before without feeling this way.

He stared at Lin Nan's face, then his gaze gradually moved downward, from his cheeks to his chest, to his thighs, to his feet in slippers, unable to help swallowing.

For some reason, when he'd seen Lin Nan before, he'd just thought this boy was very pretty, without any other thoughts. But this time, he found Lin Nan's face increasingly pleasing the more he looked, and he couldn't stop feeling heated and his heart racing.

I'm an advisor, I can't lust after my own student's body...

He took a deep breath, thinking maybe something was wrong with his head: "No matter what, you absolutely cannot live off-campus."

But seeing his student's shocked, disappointed expression, Zheng Qian couldn't help softening his heart, unconsciously asking: "How about... you come live with me instead? Graduate student dorms are single rooms."

...??

Lin Nan looked completely bewildered, staring at Zheng Qian blankly, feeling waves of chills all over her body.

Was this magic a bit too strong?

"What I mean is... if you study hard and get into graduate school, then the school will give you a single room to live in."

Zheng Qian coughed lightly, his old face reddening as he tried to make the serious expression he usually wore when dealing with students, but when facing Lin Nan, that expression just wouldn't hold.

He didn't know how, but he had simply fallen for his own student just like that, and had almost lost his rationality enough to say perverted things.

Maybe this isn't love, just pure lust for the student's body. But I'm an advisor!

Various emotions surged in his heart, and his tense expression gradually relaxed.

"Advisor Zheng, can I really not live off-campus?" Seeing that his tone and expression had both softened considerably, Lin Nan quickly struck while the iron was hot, completely letting go of her throat, changing from that neutral, somewhat deep and androgynous voice back to her original clear girlish tone.

She looked up at Zheng Qian pitifully. Although she felt like a "danger" sign was constantly flashing above her head, things had progressed to this point, so she could only steel herself and continue.

"This..." Zheng Qian had wanted to refuse directly, but his inexplicable infatuation with Lin Nan made him unable to speak.

"Is it not okay?" Lin Nan's tone carried the nasal quality used for acting cute.

Zheng Qian turned his head away, not daring to continue looking at Lin Nan's face.

"Advisor~" Then a pair of hands directly hugged his arm, gently shaking it.

He couldn't help looking down. Lin Nan's soft, cute voice and eyes that seemed to sparkle with starlight instantly broke through Zheng Qian's psychological defenses.

"Okay, okay." Zheng Qian kept nodding, his expression when looking at Lin Nan becoming somewhat off.

Lin Nan forcibly suppressed her shame, her face flushed red, head lowered, her legs unconsciously wanting to run, but she hadn't completed her mission yet.

Just verbal agreement wasn't enough. It would be best to have a document signed and sealed by the advisor.

That way, when the magic's effect ended, even if the advisor wanted to go back on his word, she could take out the document and confidently argue back.

"Then, is there something like an off-campus residence permit? I'm worried about explaining things to the dorm supervisor..."

"Mm, mainly you need to sign a guarantee letter, promising not to wander around while living off-campus." Zheng Qian turned back and continued walking toward the office.

With his gaze away from Lin Nan's face, his head suddenly cleared somewhat, and he questioned why he had just made such a decision.

But Lin Nan's beautiful face immediately appeared in his mind again, making his breath catch and his face flush with racing heart.

I'm an advisor, I can't make a fool of myself in front of a student.

He muttered to himself, the sudden infatuation leaving him somewhat at a loss.

I'll find a chance to confess first.

Later, using his position as advisor to communicate more with Lin Nan, then candlelight dinner, getting down on one knee to propose, then engagement, marriage...

The child could be named Zheng He, right? With the blessing of a historical figure, our child definitely won't turn out badly...

During the walk from the first floor of the teaching building to the advisor's office on the third floor, Zheng Qian had already planned out traveling the world with Lin Nan after retiring at sixty.

Sitting at his desk, he looked up at Lin Nan standing timidly to the side waiting for him to write the permit, and smiled: "Sit down first."

It was class time, but today the colleagues in the office all seemed quite busy. So far only he had arrived.

Wait, wasn't there supposed to be a school meeting today?

Zheng Qian suddenly remembered the purpose of his trip out, stunned for a moment, but then pushed work aside and focused wholeheartedly on how to flirt with the student in front of him.

"How are things in the dorm usually?" He tried to use conversation to build rapport, while desperately hiding his mental activity to seem natural, but sitting beside him, Lin Nan with his legs pressed tightly together looked so tempting...

"Pretty good, my roommates all take good care of me."

Lin Nan felt like she was walking on the edge of danger. There was only the advisor here...

If the advisor suddenly had thoughts of "death penalty isn't a loss," wouldn't she be done for?

Her previous decision had been somewhat impulsive due to losing little Lin Nan, but fortunately she still had invisibility magic. If she reacted quickly, there shouldn't be problems, right?

"Mm, do you have a boyfriend? You should focus on studying in college, dating isn't advisable." Zheng Qian signed the printed permit, then looked up at Lin Nan, unable to help sinking into that delicate, cute face that seemed devastatingly beautiful in his eyes.

Lin Nan uneasily and unnaturally lowered her head, unconsciously playing with her fingers, her shoes rubbing back and forth: "No, I'm male..."

"It's fine, I don't mind if you're male either."

"???" Lin Nan looked up in confusion.

"Ah, I mean males also can't let dating interfere with studies!" The permit was thrust in front of her, and Zheng Qian's increasingly kind and amiable voice came again: "Come, you sign too."

"Mm." She forced a smile and took the pen to sign her name.

Was this charm magic's effect a bit too strong?

"Want to have lunch together?"

"I have things to do at lunch."

"My treat."

Lin Nan was tempted for a second, but then remembered this was the magic's effect. She quickly shook her head repeatedly, then checked the time on her phone.

Almost half an hour already!

She suddenly grabbed the permit and stood up, hurriedly explaining: "I need to go to class!"

"Skipping class is fine, I'll help you remove the absence mark. How about we go shopping instead?" Zheng Qian felt he had hopelessly fallen in love with Lin Nan.

"No, no."

Lin Nan took the permit and hurriedly ran off with her head down.

Zheng Qian watched her departing figure, finally showing a happy smile on his face. At twenty-five, he had finally met the person most worth protecting in his life... huh?

He blinked in confusion as the sudden heat in his head dissipated, and his heartfelt love for Lin Nan seemed to have vanished without a trace.

It was as if he had suddenly entered sage mode, his head instantly clearing.

What... was I just doing?
