   I looked around and couldn't find this one! It's so addictive! The female lead is socially awkward and has a lifelike mechanic where she becomes a man. There's a limit to how low she can go; if she has a 70% fit with the character, she becomes a woman. The key is that the female lead is on top! It's so good, everyone should read it!

   The story revolves around a cool and aloof woman disguised as a man. The female lead, carrying a secret, travels to the capital to take the imperial examinations, possessing a refined and scholarly air, and is a steadfast student. The male lead is the young master of a martial arts sect, a wanderer who helps those in need. He's a talkative and cheerful guy who develops feelings for the female lead after spending so much time together, even convincing himself to become a "rabbit god" (a term for a male concubine who is unfaithful to women). Hilariously, when the female lead is in danger, the male lead considers sacrificing her life for someone else, but ultimately, the female and male leads end up together. The second male lead is also difficult to judge; he causes a huge uproar but is a tragic character. Fortunately, the epilogue provides a decent ending. Highly recommended!!! The female lead even brainwashes herself into believing she's a man because of historical reasons, and she once avoided relationships. It's a really sweet and engaging story!!!

    It's a great watch. It's not a traditional cross-dressing story; the female lead creates a male body but ultimately uses her own. It features a one-sided romantic storyline with a female protagonist and a feminine element, but she doesn't end up with anyone, so it's essentially a no-romance story. She's not the type to be oblivious to others' affections; the female lead is definitely not naive, but rather gentle and rational. She has a docile image in front of beautiful older women, but when it comes to serious matters, she's absolutely in charge, decisive and ruthless.
