Jiaojiao was petite and skinny. She looked even more petite and cute in the arms of the tall and slender Ye Luo.

Ye Luo’s hugs were too familiar to her, so she snuggled in the warm embrace. She fell asleep for a short while soon after she closed her eyes.

Ye Luo opened the car door and subconsciously pushed the person in his arms into the passenger seat. After a while, he realized that the person in his arms was a girl and was no longer a petite kitten.

Just as he was about to let go, he quickly scooped her back and gently placed her onto the car seat in his arms.

Jiaojiao narrowed her eyes and looked at Ye Luo. Then, she found a comfortable position and closed her eyes again.

This action was very similar to President Ba when he woke up suddenly. He would narrow his eyes and look at him, then close his eyes and continue to sleep.

After Ye Luo got into the car, he was still thinking about what had happened today while driving. It was somewhat unbelievable.

The cat had become a human?

He glanced at the little girl who was sleeping in the passenger seat. She was no longer a black and soft kitten, but a real person.

Although Ye Luo was a tough man and had some violent tendencies, he still had feelings for President Ba after raising him all these years.

The cat that he had raised turned into a human. Wasn’t the difference too big?

Back in Bright Garden.

Jiaojiao was still sleeping. Ye Luo opened the passenger seat door and stretched out his arms to carry her out.

There was a huge difference between carrying a human and carrying a cat.

Back in the room, Ye Luo looked down at the person in his arms. Her body was dirty. Even if she slept, he had to wash her clean before she could sleep.

He placed her on a single sofa at the side, turned around, and walked into the bathroom. He turned on the tap, adjusted the temperature of the water, and let the water flow.

After the water had been turned on, he walked out. Seeing that she was still sleeping, he patted her head. “Jiaojiao, get up and take a bath.”

“Okay, I will go take a bath.”

Jiaojiao’s voice was soft and sweet, and it sounded sticky and sweet. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Ye Luo in front of her. She stretched out her arms and grabbed his neck very naturally. Her intention was very clear — she wanted him to carry her to take a bath.

When she was still a cat, Ye Luo had always carried her to take a bath.

Ye Luo said expressionlessly, “Go by yourself.”

“En…”Jiaojiao shook her head as if she was acting coquettishly. “You were the one who showered me in the past.”

Ye Luo lowered his head. “Now that you’re a human, are you comparing yourself to a cat?”

Jiaojiao pouted unhappily. “Why can’t I compare? Didn’t I come from a cat?”

Ye Luo:”…”

Jiaojiao felt the smell of sweat on her body. She was too sleepy just now, and now that she was awake, she couldn’t fall asleep even if she wanted to.

“Shower, shower, and sleep.”

Ye Luo didn’t say anything else. He carried Jiaojiao and strode towards the bathroom.

With a few sounds, Ye Luo tore her clothes into pieces.

Then came the sound of water splashing.

Not long after, Ye Luo walked out of the bathroom. In the past, taking a bath could not be any simpler.

Now, it felt like death.

Ye Luo’s ears were red.

He stood on the balcony, lit a cigarette for himself, and started smoking.

After he finished smoking, Jiaojiao did not come out. She had just turned into a human, could she not even know how to take a bath?

Or…

Ye Luo, who had lit the second cigarette, put down the cigarette box and strode to the bathroom door. Because he was worried, he did not bother to knock on the door. He pushed open the bathroom door. The bathroom was full of foam, and even he could not see Jiaojiao.

It wouldn’t fall into the bathtub and drown right…

Ye Luo strode to the front of the bathtub and waved the foam away. At that moment, a head popped out of the water and splashed all over him.

Jiaojiao held a comb in her hand and shouted happily, “I found it.”

Jiaojiao was full of foam from head to toe, and only a pair of red eyes could be seen. When she saw Ye Luo coming, she rubbed against him naturally.

“Help me wash it.”

She tugged at her hair again, feeling a little conflicted. “The hair is too long, it’s not easy to wash. When can you help me to cut it short?”

Ye Luo had never seen Jiaojiao’s short hair before, but when he saw her long hair with two braided braids, it looked pretty, so he was unwilling to cut it for her.

“It won’t look good if I cut it.”

Jiaojiao looked at Ye Luo with a puzzled face and asked, “What do you mean by it looks good? But it’s too long. What if I tie it in a knot?”

“If you tie it up, it won’t be entangled.”

Ye Luo looked at Jiaojiao, feeling a little helpless.

“I don’t know how.” Jiaojiao took the comb and scratched her hair a few times. In the end, she pulled her hair, causing her to grimace in pain.

“I’ll tie it for you.” Ye Luo took the comb and combed her hair. He was afraid that it would hurt her, so his movements were very gentle.

“I think so too. If I don’t know how to tie it, look for Ye Luo. If I want to eat, look for Ye Luo.”

After saying that, she looked at Ye Luo with her good-looking eyebrows and laughed twice. Even his laughter was soft and sweet.

Ye Luo combed her hair while staring at Jiaojiao. Although she had become a human, her expression and actions had not changed at all.

If she was unhappy, he would throw a tantrum. If she was happy, he would make a soft and sweet sound.

Ye Luo’s heart, which was as hard as a rock, seemed to have softened a little as well.

It was easy to wash her hair, but it was difficult to bathe her.

It was not that he did not know how, but how to bathe?

Jiaojiao did not know how to bathe herself. Anyway, with Ye Luo, she was not afraid.

In the end, Ye Luo was the one to bathe her.

It took an hour.

Jiaojiao always said it was itchy.

Then she snorted.

She said that after bathing, her body was fragrant and very comfortable.

Just like before, after wiping off the water droplets with a bath towel, he put on her hooded pyjamas for her. Her hair was dried by a hair dryer.

It was as if President Ba had turned into a human again, and nothing had changed.

Ye Luo still need to do what he had to do, and nothing could be skipped.

Ye Luo carried her to the bedside and placed her on the bed. He looked at Jiaojiao, who was wearing his clothes. The top could be worn as a skirt, and her small arms and legs were fair and tender.

Her hair was a little yellow, and it was very soft. It had a natural curl that hung naturally on her chest.

Her long hair was very beautiful.

He could not help but ask, “Is this body of yours mature yet?”

Jiaojiao asked in puzzlement, “More than a hundred years old. Is it mature yet?”

Ye Luo’s mouth twitched. “More than a hundred years old?”

“When I was a cat, I was a spirit. Every ten years of age, a red line will appear on my hand.”

Jiaojiao stretched out her hand for Ye Luo to see.

Ye Luo looked at her fair and smooth hand and raised his eyes to look at her. “Where is the red line?”

Jiaojiao pointed at the red vein-like object in her palm and said, “It’s right here. Can’t you see it?”

Ye Luo replied, “I can’t see it.”

Only then did Jiaojiao realize that only she could see the red line in her palm. She recalled the conversation between the two men and asked, “Then, am I 18 years old?”

Ye Luo nodded. “You are 18 years old.”

“The two men said that I am 18 years old, so of course my skin is smooth. When they are done playing with me, they will sell me for a good price. I think that’s what they said.”

Jiaojiao recalled as she spoke. She looked at Ye Luo with her big watery eyes. She was so innocent that she didn’t know what was wrong with what she said.

Ye Luo’s face instantly darkened. “Next time you see those two men, tell me. I’ll let them know what it’s like to play and sell them.”

Jiaojiao noticed that Ye Luo’s tone was not right. She leaned over and tilted her head to ask, “What kind of experience is it?”

“You don’t have to know.”

Ye Luo picked up the towel and instructed, “Sit on the bed for a while. I’m going to take a shower.”

He felt like he was about to become an old mother.

“Okay.”

Jiaojiao watched Ye Luo walk into the bathroom. His footsteps were very hurried as if he was rushing to the toilet. She did not bother him. She lay on the bed, lifted the blanket, and crawled in. It was the most comfortable to sleep after taking a shower.

In the bathroom, the sound of water splashing could be heard.

Ye Luo’s clothes had been taken off completely. His body was tall and slender, and his muscles were clearly visible, and they were tough too.

He stood under the shower, and cold water sprayed down from the top of his head. The water removed quite a bit of heat from his body.

He supported himself against the wall with both hands, and his mind couldn’t help but recall the scene just now.

It took him a long time to walk out of the bathroom in his bathrobe. He saw that the person on the bed was no longer sitting obediently. She had crawled onto the bed to sleep.

He was not in a hurry to pull her out. Instead, he walked out and went to the room next door. He took out a new quilt and put it on.

Then he walked over, lifted the quilt, and carried the person inside. Then he turned around and walked into the room next door. He placed her on the soft bed and covered her with the quilt.

His tall and straight figure stood by the bed and stared at the little girl on the bed for a long time. From today onwards, he could no longer raise her like a cat.

He turned around and walked out. Before he left, he gently closed the door.

In early the morning, Ye Luo was sleeping soundly when he suddenly felt a weight on his chest. It was so heavy that he could not breathe.

He opened his eyes, stretched out his long arms, and turned on the bedside lamp. He saw Jiaojiao lying on top of him. Her hands were crossed, and her head was tilted on his chest.

Just like when she was a cat, she climbed onto his chest when she was unhappy and slept on top of his chest.

This meant that Jiaojiao was not happy at the moment.

The weight of her body was on top of him. Although she was not heavy, it still affected his breathing.

He reached out and pinched her little face. It was tender and felt like water could be squeezed out.

“Jiaojiao, what are you doing here?”

Jiaojiao huffed angrily and tilted her head to ignore him.

Ye Luo:”…” even her actions and expression did not change at all.

“You’re a human now, not a cat. You can’t just casually enter a man’s room,” Ye Luo said.

Jiaojiao glared at him and reached out to scratch his hair. After scratching for a while, she realized that she no longer had claws. She retracted her hand and continued lying, she was ignoring him.

For so many years, President BA had always been eating and sleeping with Ye Luo on the same bed.

Therefore, Jiaojiao was subconsciously relying on him. Throwing her into another room would make her feel that Ye Luo did not like her, so she was very angry.

Ye Luo facepalmed, not knowing what to say.

After a while, Jiaojiao, who was lying on top of him, moved a little. Perhaps because her anger had subsided, she lifted the blanket and crawled into it. She lay next to Ye Luo and slept on her stomach.

The whole set of movements was very skilful because she did it every day.

Ye Luo looked at the little girl next to him and said, “Do you know the difference between a man and a woman?”

Jiaojiao leaned closer to him again and tilted her head to look at Ye Luo. “What’s the difference between a man and a woman?”

“You can’t sleep on the same bed, change your clothes, and even avoid going to the bathroom in the shower…”

Before Ye Luo could finish, Jiaojiao smiled and said, “I saw you in the shower. You have a mole on your chest, a very long scar on your waist, a scar on your arm, and the root of your thigh…”

Ye Luo’s ears turned red, and he immediately covered her mouth. “Stop talking.”

In the past, when President BA was the cat, he didn’t pay attention to these things.

But now, it had become a dark history.

Jiaojiao’s big watery eyes stared at Ye Luo, looking very innocent.

Ye Luo said, “This is not going to happen again in the future.”

Hearing this, Jiaojiao became anxious. She pushed away Ye Luo’s big hand and asked, “Why? Don’t you taking care of me?”

Although Ye Luo didn’t treat other girls well, he saw Jiaojiao’s anxious look. Plus, he had feelings for her, so how could he not take care of her?

“I am, but I change the way I take care of you.”

“In what way? If you’re not good to me, I’ll scratch you. Although I don’t have claws anymore, I can wait for my nails to grow and scratch you.”

Jiaojiao bared her teeth and glared at him fiercely.

Ye Luo glanced at her little hand and thought about her little claws from the past, which often scratched a hole in his clothes.

He then looked at Jiaojiao’s face, which was small and delicate, and cute, so he asked her in return, “How do you want me to raise you?”

“Raise me like before. How did you raise me in the past, and now you raise me in the same way? Otherwise, you’re not good to me. If you’re not good to me, I’ll find someone else to raise me.”

At the end of his sentence, Jiaojiao still threatened him.

“The way I raised you in the past wasn’t good enough. You’re a girl, so you can’t ask me to help you with everything. Something will happen.” Ye Luo’s tone was very determined.

“Nothing has happened for so many years, so how could something happen?”Jiaojiao seemed to have discovered something, she said, “When I become a human, you don’t want to raise me anymore. You’re afraid that I’ll eat more than I used to. When the sun rises, I’ll go look for Qin Shu. HMPH.”

Ye Luo thought that she was going back to Qin Shu’s side. With his bad temper, he couldn’t help but shout out, “I said I’ll raise you. Don’t you understand human language?”

Jiaojiao stared at him, her eyes filled with grievance. It was as if tears would flow out in the next second.

But in her heart, she scolded him unhappily. It must be because she had become a human and ate too much. He couldn’t afford to feed her anymore.

And he even yelled at her.

Ye Luo had never coaxed anyone before. He did not expect President BA to have a crying side when she became a human. For a moment, he was so scared that he did not know what to do, so he threatened again, “If you dare to cry, I will throw you out.”

Jiaojiao felt wronged and angry in her heart. She reached out her hand towards Ye Luo’s cold face and scratched it. Because there were no fingernails, she did not scratch them. Instead, she patted it.

With a “pa” sound, Ye Luo was stunned.

After Jiaojiao finished patting him, she pulled up the blanket and hid her head in it. The blanket was tightly covered as if she was afraid that Ye Luo would hit her too.

She was cursing Ye Luo in her heart, yet he said to throw her out again.

She would go to Qin Shu the next day and didn’t want him to take care of her anymore.

Ye Luo turned his head to look at Jiaojiao who was covered in the blanket. Her personality didn’t change even if she became a human. In the past, when she scratched his clothes, she would run away, afraid that he would be angry and hit her.

The next day.

Ye Luo washed up and returned with breakfast. He found that Jiaojiao was gone.

When he left, Jiaojiao was still sleeping on the bed.

He put down the breakfast in his hands, turned around and ran out.

…

Qin Shu didn’t find any news about Jun Li, and Lan Qi had not said anything. Ever since he moved into Bright Garden, he had been staying in the courtyard, waiting for the female servants to deliver the food.

When she entered, she saw Lan Qi sitting on the stone table with his hands resting on his cheeks, staring blankly.
