I was reborn before I signed up for a scientific expedition tour to the South Pole.

My boyfriend’s adopted younger sister used a system to forcefully exchange my physical senses with hers. She deliberately went out to do something good on a day with a temperature of 107.6 °F, like delivering water to the outdoor workers.

On the other hand, I got so hot in a 60.8 °F air-conditioned room that I fainted from heat stroke.

I begged Wendy Little to stop, but she feigned innocence. “You must make a good excuse if you want to lie like that!”

Max Little sounded disdainful. “How selfish! You’re quite lucky to enjoy yourself in air-conditioned rooms every day. You can’t tolerate Wendy doing something kind.”

Wendy took her time and basked in the sun for a month outside. People took photos of her and put them on the internet. Countless netizens were moved by her.

But I died from heat stroke in an air-conditioned room. Nobody even found my corpse. If that was how it was, I wanted her to enjoy the coolness of -184 °F in the South Pole.

I finally breathed a sigh of relief when I got a text notification for successful registration on my phone. I would be gone in three days.

I swore to make them both pay a price in this life.

My body temperature was so high that it felt like I was boiling. My sweat drenched my pajamas and made them stick to my skin.

I simply turned off the air conditioning and went out with my phone. I stood under the blazing sun and sneered.

Wendy Little was not the only one who could bask in the sun.

“Dear, why are you standing outside?”

Max Little, my boyfriend, carried a large watermelon as he ran toward me anxiously. He looked at me in concern.

It was the first day of Wendy switching her senses with me.

On the very same day during my previous life, I had yet to get a check-up at the hospital. I also did not realize that this was Wendy’s plot.

My so-called nice boyfriend immediately ran to the fruit shop at the entrance of the neighborhood when I claimed that I felt hot. He wanted to buy me a watermelon. He was really good at pretending to be considerate and caring.

However, I ignored him and turned around to stay longer in the sun. After all, I could do nothing but feel the heat. Hence, I wanted Wendy to have a bad time, too.

Max persuaded me to go inside. “Dear, come home with me now! You’ll get heat stroke if you stand in the sun like this. You can’t stand feeling hot. What’s wrong with you today?”

So, he knew that I could not tolerate hot weather.

When I humbly got down on my knees and begged Wendy and him during my previous life to spare my life, all they did was mock me.

Wendy even secretly took videos of me and put them on the internet. However, no one believed my words, as they found the whole thing bizarre. The netizens labeled me a drama queen.

“Max, your sister said I was a drama queen and rich, so I don’t have to work. All I do is stay at home in an air-conditioned room. So, I took it seriously and came out for some sunlight. It’ll give me some vitamin D.”

Wendy was never nice to me from the moment she got to know me.

I merely repeated what Wendy had secretly said about me to Max on WhatsApp anyway. Max was struck speechless. He stammered, “You… You…”

The commotion attracted the attention of a group of old people who were enjoying the air conditioning in the lobby downstairs.

“Oh, my! Young women nowadays are so dramatic!”

“Hey, Mister! You need to teach your woman a lesson. If your wife doesn’t obey you, you should hit her! It’s a stressful world for young men now. The world has changed!”

“Her boyfriend kindly asked her to go home to stay in the air conditioning. But she’s making a scene! How ungrateful!”

The old men and women were quite harsh as they looked at me. They acted as if I were their daughter-in-law.

I rolled my eyes and ignored them. Besides, I started running on that day when it was 107.6 °F outside. I knew that Wendy could not bear that.

Max’s face was flushed with anger. His fingers trembled as he pointed at me.

“Fine! You must be out of your mind today!” Then, he turned and left.

Sorrow gripped me. It seemed like he was still pretending to be ignorant. I shook my head and stopped thinking about it. Then, I quickened my pace as I ran. Usually, I felt an ache in my belly when I ran quickly, but this time, I felt nothing.

Suddenly, my phone rang. I snorted and answered the video call.

“What are you doing outside, Rachel?!” Wendy panicked and exclaimed in horror.

Wendy’s face was deeply flushed, and her clothes were drenched with sweat. Besides, she was breathing rapidly and looking miserable. I enjoyed the sight.

I covered my mouth and smiled before I asked, “Wendy? Why are you so concerned about me today? I suddenly felt like training. It’s so fun running in this hot summer.”

Wendy grew quite mad. She had purposely gone to a construction site to deliver water to the workers there. She even hired an assistant to take photos of her as a record.

In the beginning, she felt quite comfortable. She basked in the hot sun and walked around for several hours. She felt no discomfort.

On the contrary, she felt quite cool and refreshed as if she were walking in an air-conditioned room.

When she was rejoicing in the marvelous effects of the senses-switching system, everything immediately changed.

That refreshing coolness vanished completely, replaced by the suffocating heat of running in a sauna.

I watched the shifty look in Wendy’s eyes. Suddenly, I was no longer in the mood to tease her.

I went straight to the point. “Wendy, give up on your wicked ways. If not, you’ll wish that you were dead!”

Wendy’s face changed drastically. After that, she hung up on me.

When I tried to call her back, I was surprised to find that she had blocked my number.

Soon, the hotness that gripped me was gone. It seemed like Wendy had entered an air-conditioned room.

I also stopped running and returned home.

Max instantly approached me with a glass of iced water. He said dotingly, “Dear, have some water. You have to stop torturing yourself like this.”

I frowned and refused. But in the next second, I felt a blow to the back of my neck, which knocked me out.

When I woke up, I found myself in a summer resort located at an altitude of over three thousand feet. Max had brought me here.

The place was cold all year round, with the temperature never exceeding 77 °F.

My heart sank.

In the next second, Max opened the door and grinned at me. “Dear, come with me. Everyone’s waiting for you.” Then, he dragged me out of the room.

Surprisingly, there was a pool party outside. The guests were all friends from Max’s circle.

I did not have much contact with them, but I always felt some degree of hostility from them.

“Rachel, thanks for your hospitality! We’ve never been to such an expensive resort!” exclaimed a grinning man.

Although he was smiling, his gaze filled me with uneasiness.

I looked at Max and asked, “What do you mean by this?”

As an ordinary worker, he could only spend money using the supplementary card that I had given him.

Max held my hand and said gently, “Dear, you can’t stand the heat. So, this is a surprise for you.”

After that, he jumped into the pool and pulled me into the water with him.

Anger got the better of me as I slapped him. It seemed like he would do anything for his sister.

All I felt was hot and dizzy. Presumably, Wendy had started acting like the kindest person and delivering water under the hot sun.

During my previous life, she did the same thing and became famous on the internet by acting like no one else was as kind as her.

On the other hand, the heat killed me as I died in an air-conditioned room.

When Max could no longer control me, he tried to trap me in a summer resort!

“Get lost!” I pushed him away and tried to get out of the pool.

But he pressed me down with force and pinned me in the cold water.

His gentle facade had finally vanished. He sneered. He was rough and violent with me.

“Rachel, don’t say I didn’t warn you for insisting on going against Wendy!”

I was trapped in the water. Besides, he tied up my limbs, so I could not move.

If my senses were not switched, I would feel very comfortable soaking in water. But as usual, all I felt was terribly hot.

A few men grabbed some ice cubes and kept stuffing them into my mouth.

“Rachel, I heard that you always claim it’s hot. Let me help you cool down. Hahaha!”

“I’ve got an even better way! Let me try it out with you at night.”

“Hey, do you want to keep her to yourself?”

“No, I don’t have the guts. Why don’t we have some fun with her tonight…”

The men came up with one scary idea after another. Max finally spoke up to stop them.

“That’s enough!”

The men immediately stopped talking but kept leering at me, which was disgusting.

Max stood by the pool and looked down at me. He felt pity for me.

“Dear, be good. Stop acting up. It’ll be fine after a while.”

He sounded like he wanted the best for me, which was revolting.

I knew what he meant. After I passed away in my previous life, my corpse started rotting, but my spirit lingered in the air and could not move on.

Someone finally opened the door of my bedroom two months after my passing.

Wendy covered her nose and looked contemptuous as she had someone carry my corpse away.

When she was left alone, she said, “System, let’s cancel the senses-switching feature for now. Oh, Rachel! The most important purpose of your life is to help me become a famous streamer. I’ve succeeded, so you can leave now.”

I finally realized that she was the reason behind all the strange conditions of my body.

When she became a famous streamer, she would switch it back. Besides, Max claimed that things would be fine after a while.

No, I would not agree to that!

“Max, the thing I regret the most in my life is dating you!”

I had dated the wrong guy and hurt myself. But I would not easily let them off the hook in this life.

The pity Max showed for me vanished. Instead, wickedness shone in his eyes.

He recalled how everyone called him a weak man who relied on me after he started dating me. He felt that no one could tolerate my bad temper except for him.

“Since you’re this stubborn, I’ll leave you in the water.”

Being trapped in the water, I felt the heat on my face and suffocation from the water at the same time. My skin felt swollen from soaking in water.

I screamed with all my might, but there was no response.

Max’s friends sneered and said, “Stop yelling! It’s useless!”

“Hey, she’s trying to attract our attention. Her voice is so attractive. Oh, I’m aroused!”

I flew into a rage. Finally, I fainted.

When I woke up, I still felt suffocating hotness. In the next second, I realized that I was in the basement.

Max stood at the door and said indifferently, “Rachel, this basement has a temperature of 60.8 °F all year round. You need to stay here for a month.”

Then, he looked away and left.

When the heavy door slammed shut, I angrily threw everything beside me at the wall and made a loud crashing sound.

I pinched the diamond bracelet around my left wrist firmly and was ready to make a move.

Suddenly, the surveillance camera on the wall flashed. My heart skipped a beat as I immediately stopped. I pretended to be scared as I looked at the wall.
