Huang Shaohong fiercely grabbed his hair. Now the situation was clear: the one speaking in a masculine tone was Eddie himself, while the sharp, feminine voice belonged to Ma Xiao.
With a snap, the feminine "Eddie," also known as Ma Xiao, slapped away Huang's hand, hands on hips, scolding, "Is it your hair that you're pulling? Can you afford to compensate if you pull it out?"
Huang winced in pain, about to retort, but saw the sudden change in the other's face. The masculine Eddie persona emerged again, looking puzzled. "Uh... What's going on? Who's inside me?"
Before he could finish speaking, his expression changed again, and he lunged towards Huang. "You give me back my body!" Clearly, Ma Xiao's girlish demeanor had returned.
Huang instinctively tried to dodge, but saw Eddie stumble. With the masculine Eddie taking over, "himself" tripped "himself" up, and then asked, "Can someone tell me what the hell is going on?"
Huang, feeling overwhelmed, suggested, "Let's find a place to talk where no one's around. Let's go to my hospital room!"
As they moved, the two consciousnesses within Eddie's body seemed to reach a consensus, although their movements were still awkward and uncoordinated. The speed had increased, but there was still a slight issue... turning corners!
The trio... or perhaps it's more accurate to say three entities, considering the situation... in Eddie's body arrived at the hospital room, and with a bang, locked the door behind them. They rapidly recounted the situation and their speculations.
Faced with the undeniable truth, the two souls within Eddie's body found it hard to believe.
In a gruff voice, Eddie, looking bewildered, said, "Wait... I just woke up, and before I could even pee, you're telling me there's a woman living in my body?"
Before Huang could respond, he saw the feminine side of Eddie speak up, answering himself, "You don't need to pee anymore. You were desperate, so I peed for you!"
This was Ma Xiao speaking, clearly indicating that the two souls within the body couldn't communicate through consciousness and still relied on their voices.
As Ma Xiao finished speaking, Eddie's voice, now masculine, interjected angrily, "How could you do that? Isn't that peeping?"
Before he could finish, he pinched his waist with one hand and pointed at his own forehead with the other, adopting a feminine pose. "If you weren't so desperate, who'd want to look at you? I was just looking openly..."
The two souls within Eddie's body argued while glaring at each other, a challenging feat as they alternated tones and expressions. Their eyes crossed each other like a pair of roosters in a fight.
Huang's head throbbed from their argument. He interjected, "You two, isn't the pee the main point here..."
He intended to say that the main point was how to switch back, but seeing Eddie's two crossed eyes, he abandoned the idea of staring each other down and faced them. "Who are you?"
Eddie's two souls finally understood the main point of the matter. If Ma Xiao moved into Eddie's body and cohabited with him, who was the consciousness or soul in Ma Xiao's body?
At the moment Eddie's eyes crossed over to Huang, he immediately felt his hair stand on end. For in that instant, he distinctly saw two shadows in the other's eyes: on the left, Eddie himself, and on the right, Ma Xiao!
He blinked, and when he looked again, the shadows were gone.
"Speak up, who are you?" Eddie, in his feminine voice, urgently demanded to know who was occupying his body.
Huang didn't know how to explain. He coughed awkwardly, planning to use a cliché from online novels to deflect the question, "I'm a fairy who descended to earth, believe it or not... Ouch!"
He hadn't finished speaking when he received a punch to the stomach, collapsing onto the bed. Eddie glared at him with anger, pointing a finger at him. "I have something to say, but I'm not sure if it's appropriate... Do you think I'm an i***t?"
Eddie stepped forward, towering over Huang. "I don't care who you are, but this has something to do with you. Get this woman out of my body, or you'll regret it!"
He was about to strike again, causing Huang to roll to the other side of the bed. He knew Eddie was a professional fighter with unlimited combat capabilities, who even defeated the boxing champion Wu Liang. He definitely had the strength of a boxing champion.
So he made a shameless decision. He extended five fingers to gesture towards his face and shouted, "Ma Xiao, if he dares to attack again, don't blame me for ruining your face!"
Before he could finish, Eddie, in a dilemma, suddenly became half-paralyzed. Furious, he shouted at himself, "Don't stop me!"
Then his voice softened, crying out, "Didn't you see he wants to disfigure me?"
The rough voice snapped back, "None of my business. Get out of here. This is my body. Get out!"
"I also want to get out. If you have the guts, send me away. Thank you!"
"It's not like I invited you. Why should I send you away? Hurry up and get out!"
"Bang!" Eddie's right fist hit his left eye socket, while the feminine voice screamed, "You bastard!"
Following the hit, Eddie's left hand also rose, giving his right cheek a slap.
Observing this brawl, Huang was stunned. After a while, as Eddie grabbed his hair with one hand and choked his own throat with the other, Huang couldn't help but ask in confusion, "You two are now in the same body. Doesn't it really hurt to hit yourself?"
"Painful!" the feminine voice shouted first, then let go of Huang's hair and cried.
Just as Huang was about to ask again, the masculine voice of Eddie chimed in, "What are you crying for? I've had my hand broken on stage and didn't cry. If others see me, how can I face them?"
After his words, his expression changed again, and his voice softened, saying, "It really hurts, Eddie, you bastard. How dare you hit a woman!"
"Who hit a woman? I'm hitting myself!" he said, punching his chest twice.
The feminine voice suddenly shrieked, "None of you should live... Monkey steals the peach!" Then she punched her groin.
After that, Huang couldn't distinguish whether the other was male or female. In any case, Eddie immediately joined the Wudang school of martial arts in a roll on the bed, howling in pain.
