Chapter 40: A Habitual Offender

Jiang Yuan blinked, looking into those ink-blue feline eyes.

What did the kitten mean by that?

As if sensing the confusion in Jiang Yuan's heart, the Ragdoll cat continued, "The human world is truly miraculous; males can actually turn into females!"

Jiang Yuan: "..."

She pursed her lips, carefully analyzing the meaning of that sentence in her mind.

A male turning into a female... wasn't that gender reassignment?

Combining that with the previous sentence—not a girlfriend, but a boyfriend...

Jiang Yuan glanced at the blonde girl opposite her, her expression gradually becoming hard to describe.

Was Xiao Hang's girlfriend actually a trans woman?

As Jiang Yuan was thinking, Fu Xiaoxiao suddenly leaned into her ear and whispered, "Lillian invited us to an lingerie party. She has a great figure, you know."

Jiang Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, becoming increasingly certain of her suspicion.

The next second, she felt an arm wrap around her from the other side, and a high-pitched, "cutesy" voice rang in her ear.

"Sister Yuanyuan, you are so beautiful." Lillian sat down beside Jiang Yuan, her lips almost touching Jiang Yuan's face as she spoke. "Your legs are so slender."

Jiang Yuan frowned, pulled her arm away, and created distance. "I don't like people touching me. Please stay away from me."

Lillian's face instantly filled with hurt. "Does Sister Yuanyuan not like me? But Sister Xiaoxiao was just like that a moment ago."

Jiang Yuan felt a wave of goosebumps rise over her entire body.

The Ragdoll cat, sprawled on the stool, lifted its eyelids to take a look and began to complain again, "How perverted. Even after turning into a female, they're still lusting after human girls' bodies! Isn't having all those photos stored in the computer enough!"

Seeing this, Fu Xiaoxiao hurried to smooth things over. "Lillian, Yuanyuan is an 'I' person. Why don't you sit over here with me?"

Fu Xiaohang returned from the restroom and greeted Jiang Yuan. Seeing his girlfriend pouting aggrievedly, he immediately felt heartache. "Lillian, what's wrong?"

Lillian complained to him, "Why doesn't Sister Yuanyuan like me?"

"Huh?" Fu Xiaohang was somewhat surprised. "How could that be?"

"I don't know either." Lillian bit her lip, her eyes turning red. "Is it because I'm too ugly?"

Fu Xiaohang hurriedly took her hand and coaxed her, "Baby, how could you possibly be ugly? You are the most beautiful girl in the whole world."

Fu Xiaoxiao crossed her arms, sneering inwardly.

When they first met, she thought this girl was quite cute, but now she only found her to be pretentious.

Yuanyuan just doesn't like being too close to people she isn't familiar with, but this girl actually went and started crying!

Is that even necessary?

"But Sister Yuanyuan told me to stay away from her..." Lillian leaned into Fu Xiaohang's embrace and cried, "I don't know what I did wrong. I just wanted to get closer to the sisters."

"There must be a misunderstanding here." Fu Xiaohang coaxed her patiently. "Don't overthink it. I'll take you somewhere else to play."

Lillian shook her head while wiping her tears. "I want to stay with the sisters."

The Ragdoll cat couldn't listen to it anymore and said with disdain, "What 'wanting to stay with the sisters'? You clearly want to take secret photos of their bodies to sell for money!"

Hearing the Ragdoll's outburst, Jiang Yuan's fair face grew more solemn.

This Lillian was not only a repeat offender but was also profiting from it!

Jiang Yuan's expression sharpened, and her gaze toward the girl turned unfriendly.

Fu Xiaohang happened to meet her gaze, and a hint of dissatisfaction rose in his heart. "Sister Yuanyuan, Lillian is my girlfriend. I hope you can respect her."

Jiang Yuan eyed him, her brow furrowing slightly.

"Fu Xiaohang!" Fu Xiaoxiao's voice was laced with anger. "How dare you speak to my best friend like that? I advise you to be more polite!"

"It's okay, Xiaoxiao." Jiang Yuan took her hand and comforted her softly. "Don't be angry."

Fu Xiaoxiao was fuming. "His girlfriend is a treasure, but my friend isn't?"

"Xiao Hang, don't fight with Sister because of me." Fearing he would ruin her plans, Lillian quickly said, "It's my fault. Everything is my fault."

Hearing her say this, Fu Xiaoxiao became even angrier. "Stop being so passive-aggressive!"

Lillian was speechless.

*I've already admitted my mistake, why won't this woman let it go?*

*If it weren't for the fact that the clients pay well, and that you two are beautiful with great bodies, I wouldn't even bother with you!*

"Forget it, forget it!" Fu Xiaohang didn't want his girlfriend to affect his relationship with his sister, so he pulled Lillian away. "Baby, I'll take you somewhere else to play."

"I don't want to..." Lillian was reluctant, but she was still pulled away.

The Ragdoll cat watched its owner leave from the stool, looking somewhat resentful. "This guy is so unreliable. I'm still right here."

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan said softly, "The fact that he didn't take you along means we are destined. Want to chat, Little Ragdoll?"

The Ragdoll cat froze for a few seconds before realizing she was talking to it.

It turned its head, staring at Jiang Yuan with its ink-blue eyes, and said in shock, "You... you can understand me?"

"I can." Jiang Yuan nodded. "I understood everything you just said."

The Ragdoll cat blinked its eyes and quickly realized. "So that's why you wouldn't let him touch you just now!"

"Yes." Jiang Yuan smiled at the cat. "Thanks to your warning."

For a moment, the Ragdoll cat didn't know if it had done the right thing by selling out its owner.

"Warning about what?" Fu Xiaoxiao looked at her like a curious child.

Jiang Yuan whispered the truth about Lillian being a trans woman.

"Transgender?" Fu Xiaoxiao shouted in surprise.

The voice was so loud that even with the singing in the lounge, people still heard her. Customers at nearby tables turned to look at her.

Fu Xiaoxiao's cheeks flushed, and she hid beside Jiang Yuan.

This was explosive news!

How much psychological trauma would this leave for that kid Fu Xiaohang?

To encounter a trans person during his first love.

Tragic, truly tragic.

Seeing that she had processed the news, Jiang Yuan dropped another bombshell: "He's not just transgender; he's also a criminal."

"Huh?" Fu Xiaoxiao's eyes widened. This time she didn't dare shout; she frowned and asked, "What's the situation?"

Jiang Yuan whispered, "He takes secret photos of women to make a profit."

"Pervert!" Fu Xiaoxiao's face turned completely dark. "That is way too much!"

"No wonder she complimented my chest and legs the moment we met, invited me to a lingerie party, and even asked if I could accept bathing with her!" The more she spoke, the angrier she became. "So that's the scheme she was playing!"

"I'm going to call Xiao Hang right now and tell him to send that pervert to the police station so he can rot in jail! I'm so furious!"

Jiang Yuan's slender fingers pressed down on her phone to stop her from calling, her clear voice carrying a calming power. "Xiaoxiao, don't rush. Calm down."

"Why?" Fu Xiaoxiao looked at her sideways.

Jiang Yuan said calmly, "Xiao Hang is in the throes of passion right now. He might not believe what we say; instead, it might alert the enemy."

"True, he just fought with me for that pervert!" Fu Xiaoxiao nodded, finding it reasonable. "Maybe let him stay in his honeymoon phase for a few more days. When he finds out the truth, the sky will probably fall! Hmph!"

She even felt a bit of schadenfreude as she said this.
