The Cutest Height Difference - Chapter 3
Chapter 3
Qiao Yu woke up in a luxurious Baroque style bedroom with large crystal chandelier hanging above him.
He pulled his blankets aside and got up from the bed. Walking to the full length window, he stared out the golden panes in confusion.
Where’s Feng Shou?
He shook his head to clear up his confusion and tried to recall the events over the last two days.
He didn’t know Feng Shou. It could be said that they only met yesterday or, to be more specific, they couldn’t help but get to know each other that night.
That night, he was doing his evening studies. The teacher had ended class a little later and he also commuted by walking. Afraid that his grandmother would be worried, he took a shortcut to head home.
Although there were not many people on this road, there were streetlights so it wasn’t too scary.
But on his way back, Qiao Yu encountered a tall man dressed in black with a black mask and hat that was pulled down especially low. The man’s gaze appeared to be a little flustered and he carried a black bag that looked like it was used for crimes.
Qiao Yu was a weak student. Meeting someone like this, he was naturally frightened and wanted to escape.
In the end, after making way for the man a car rushed over and hit them both.
Afterwards, Qiao Yu watched himself get knocked to the group and screamed.
At that moment, he was in disbelief. How could he see his own face without the use of a mirror?!
Unless — he died?!
Qiao Yu touched his face. Warm. He wasn’t dead. Then he felt a mask, a cap and a big backpack…….
This – No way!
The “Qiao Yu” before him quickly pushed his face closer and they stared at each other trying to see their appearance using the other’s eyes.
Despite the presence of streetlights, the sky had darkened significantly and the two couldn’t see anything. However, they felt that they could only accept the truth that was placed before them.

Their souls—-had been exchanged.
The “Qiao Yu” before him opened his mouth. “My name is Feng Shou, you are?”
The “Feng Shou” on the other end hesitated. He was still in disbelief. After hesitating for a while, he warily replied, “He-hello, I-I’m Qiao Yu.”
The two once again looked at each other in confusion before proceeding to address the problem that they are faced with.
Feng Shou didn’t want to go home and Qiao Yu couldn’t go home like this.
After the two discussed, Feng Shou followed Qiao Yu back to Qiao Yu’s home.
Qiao Yu’s place was a two bedroom and one living room house that was simple but very warm.
After greeting the grandmother, they took turns to shower and spent the night together sharing the bed.
Qiao Yu couldn’t sleep the entire night but Feng Shou was calm and instantly fell asleep.
The next day, Feng Shou went to class as per usual but just as he arrived, he was kicked out by his teacher who claimed that he was a stranger and not a student of his class.
Qiao Yu stared at his black clothing and fiercely pinched his own face. Finally, he realised that his current identity as Feng Shou was not just a dream, but reality.
He was usually a good student who never skipped his classes and this time was no exception.
Qiao Yu rushed home and pulled away Feng Shou who was playing chess downstairs with an old man.

He was now in Feng Shou’s body and he was particularly strong so pulling his own body away as like pulling off a small leaf.
He pushed Feng Shou into his class and ran to wait by the school gates until school had ended.
It was a Friday and school ended early but he didn’t dare to move. He had forgotten to ask his grandmother for money for his breakfast and his grandmother probably gave the money to Feng Shou. He was very hungry but he didn’t dare leave as he was afraid that Feng Shou would skip class.
For some reason, despite only saying a few words to this person, that person gave him a very unreliable impression.
Feng Shou also didn’t let down his expectations.
When he was still in school, he hated it. After finally graduating from college, he was once again forced to attend school.
Before the morning classes had ended, Feng Shou had already climbed the wall to escape.
Although his body was small and not very strong, it was agile and flexible. He escaped in the morning and returned in the afternoon.
He had originally wanted to go straight home but he suddenly remembered that, this morning, his body had said that he would pick him up. Helpless, he couldn’t leave his body behind.
And so, he turned back to school.
Unexpectedly, his body was really waiting for him at the school gates.
That timid, dejected look actually made him feel a little defeated.
The guard at the school gates recognised Qiao Yu’s face, Qiao Yu was often bullied and was saved several times by the old guard.
He saw the black clothed young man drop “Qiao Yu” off to school and the moment he saw “Qiao Yu” come out, he immediately greeted him, “Qiao Yu, your brother is here. He waited for you all day afraid that you would be bullied.”
Waited the whole day?! Feng Shou felt a little embarrassed. Although the guard may not know this but he knew why that kid is waiting there the whole time – he was afraid that he would skip class.
But he still skipped.
When he looked at himself in the mirror today, he felt that the child looked very cute and charming. Looking up at his own tall body, it was as if he saw something deep inside him; a small shadow in the corner looking at him pitifully.
His sense of guilt grew stronger and his heart was moved. Using the money he took when he left home, he treated Qiao Yu and taught him how to burn money (KKnotes: i.e. waste it) and have fun.
Everything Feng Shou had done, Qiao Yu had not. He didn’t know how much it costed and just blindly followed.
The two played until seven or eight o’clock, until Feng Shou’s pockets only had the fifteen dollars of food money Qiao Yu’s grandma had given him. He fiddled with the crumpled notes and left it inside his trouser pockets.
Once they had played enough and their hearts had recovered, it was time for them to discuss how to address the issue of the soul swap.
