Xia Xing lost a game and has to live in women's clothing for three days.
He went to the Akademiya to study as usual, only to be stopped by a clerk who rarely socialized.
"Hi, could I get your Void number?"
The person asking had rejected his funding application just two days earlier.
Xia Xing exchanged Void numbers with a complicated expression, then tentatively asked if the clerk might approve his research proposal.
The supposedly "heartless" clerk helped him revise it and approved it, on the condition that Xia Xing go on a date with him.
Cross-dressing is something you do once, then countless times.
To graduate, Xia Xing worked hard on his voice, bought a mountain of women's clothes, and went on dates with the clerk. At last, he had enough credits to graduate.
Once he was sure he would graduate, he blocked Alhaitham, only to get caught at a tavern.
Alhaitham watched him expressionlessly, told him to unblock him, and informed him to pack his things. They would start living together the next day.
Xia Xing's vision went dark. "You knew I was a guy all along?"
Women's clothes and all that other stuff are expensive, you know!
Alhaitham gave him a strange look. "I thought it was your hobby. As it happens, I quite like it too."
Xia Xing blurted out, "Do you know how expensive those clothes are?!"
Alhaitham handed him a salary card.
1. A seemingly cold, secretly passionate, incredibly handsome, scheming top x a cute, pretty, airheaded, max-charisma beauty bottom. Neither character is perfect.
2. A sweet little treat with lots of authorial liberties. Some parts of the timeline have been changed, and there isn't much of a main plot.
3. The bottom's cross-dressing isn't forced. He's just stubborn about it.
4. The top deliberately approached him and was looking for an opportunity.
5. The bottom's research proposal wasn't seriously flawed, and the top didn't abuse his authority. The proposals he approved had all been revised with his help, and later the bottom will pass on his own merits too.

Upcoming: [Honkai: Star Rail] What Do I Do After Getting Isekai'd Into a Dating Sim Where Every Route Ends in a Bad Ending?
Ying Yuan is a fan of bad endings. On a friend's recommendation, he played a dating sim with a high degree of freedom.
In the game, he enjoyed romantic evenings with a short-lived craftsman, soared through the skies with a Vidyadhara High Elder, and grew up alongside a Cloud Knight lieutenant.
When the final choice came, he picked the bad ending without hesitation.
Ying Yuan: (^_^)
Besides those people, the victims also included a corporate executive, a university professor, a family head, a garrison officer... and others.
Without exception, Ying Yuan chose to fake his death and get a bad ending.
Love is best when it breaks your heart.
Then came his comeuppance.
Ying Yuan was transported into the game, just as he boarded the Astral Express.
Dan Heng, the Nameless who traveled with him, gave him strange looks, kept asking him questions in roundabout ways, and took especially good care of him.
The garrison officer on Jarilo-VI nearly dropped his shield the moment he saw Ying Yuan, then asked his name in a panic.
And after he boarded the Xianzhou, the Stellaron Hunters suddenly took him away, saying he could suppress someone's mara-struck state.
Thinking about the Galaxy Rangers, the Knights of Beauty, and the others he would meet later, Ying Yuan felt exhausted. Ying Yuan wanted to die.

Ying Yuan really wanted to go home.
The game System told him that if he could get these people's corruption levels down, he would have a chance to return home.
Ying Yuan gave it a shot.
Ying Yuan failed.
Ying Yuan decided to give up.
He could still live here, and the technology was about the same as back home. If he couldn't complete the missions, he might as well lie low.
He stopped turning down anyone's invitations. As long as it made him happy, anything went. But for some reason, those people suddenly didn't want that anymore.
1. A classic heartthrob story, with a stunningly beautiful protagonist.
2. The protagonist is timid and a troublemaker. There's no chance he'll get his act together.
3. Open ending, with separate endings for each pairing.
4. OOC, OOC, OOC.
5. Just adding a fifth point.
Theme: Learn to be honest.
