Reborn as the School Belle of the Underworld, and My Original Self Wants to Date Me?

[Transformation + Gender-Bender Romance + Urban + Body Exchange + Soul Swap]

By his second year of college, the novelty of freshman year had worn off. Li Yisen, a timid young man from a remote mountain village who was prone to low self-esteem, had thought college would change his life. Instead, things stayed much the same, with the same dull routine he’d had in high school.

The one thing that made him happy was getting to see Zhou Yanan every day. She was in the same business administration department and was known as the department’s unattainable beauty.

Li Yisen had thought a nobody like him could never have anything to do with someone so far out of his league. Then, one day, he accidentally stumbled upon Zhou Yanan’s secret: she was the only daughter of Zhou Yizhong, a legend of the New Harbor City underworld and the boss of the Li branch of the Ersi Gang.

Since the school strictly forbade criminal gang activity, Zhou Yanan grabbed Li Yisen by the collar with one hand on the back stairs and warned him not to tell anyone, or else...

To make matters worse, the two accidentally tumbled down the stairs while trying to avoid being seen. When they woke up, they discovered they had switched bodies.

A young man from the mountains suddenly becomes the only daughter of a wealthy underworld kingpin.

Raised as a boy all her life, with a name meaning “no less than a man,” Zhou Yanan finally becomes a boy.

Now living as the department beauty Zhou Yanan, Li Yisen must hide her underworld identity at school and the body swap from her family. The two work together, setting off one hilarious mishap after another.

At first, neither thinks they could ever fall for the other. “Who could ever like themselves?” Zhou Yanan says, shoving away Li Yisen’s “ugly face.”

But after going through a whole series of ups and downs, the two begin to fall for each other.
