Chapter 195: A Dedicated And Infatuated Kitten
Although Fu Xiaoxiao didn’t finish her sentence, Jiang Yuan immediately understood what she meant.
Jiang Yuan put her arm around Fu Xiaoxiao’s shoulder and raised an eyebrow, “Then do you want to buy a villa on the East Bank?”
“Shh!” Fu Xiaoxiao immediately made a shushing gesture, “Don’t say it, I don’t have that kind of money. It’s more likely you could buy one near my place.”
Jiang Yuan also shushed her, “Let’s reserve a room for each other, and then end this topic. Let’s not make things difficult for each other anymore.”
Fu Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement and held out her hand to her, “Happy cooperation.”
Zhou Shuyu watched the two of them with a smile and stood up, “I’ll go get a few more bowls to scoop some soup.”
After dinner, she went to the kitchen to cut a plate of fruit.
“You guys eat some fruit first.” Zhou Shuyu placed the fruit plate on the coffee table and sat next to Fu Xiaoxiao, “I’m going to call my friend now and ask her to bring the cat up.”
“Okay.” Jiang Yuan poked two blueberries with a fruit fork.
Zhou Shuyu picked up her phone and dialed.
Five minutes later, the doorbell rang.
Zhou Shuyu got up to open the door, “Shuyao.”
Tu Shuyao was wearing a loose white t-shirt and shark shorts, holding a Silver Chinchilla in her arms.
Zhou Shuyu led her to the living room and introduced them with a smile, “Shuyao, these are Jiang Yuan and Fu Xiaoxiao.”
She then said to Jiang Yuan and Fu Xiaoxiao, “Yuan Yuan, Xiaoxiao, this is Tu Shuyao.”
After they greeted each other, Tu Shuyao sat next to Jiang Yuan with her cat.
Before she could introduce the cat, it suddenly leaped and its plump body landed on Jiang Yuan’s lap.
Tu Shuyao’s scalp tightened, “Tudou, no impolite behavior!”
She looked at Jiang Yuan with an apologetic expression, “I’m sorry, Teacher Jiang.”
“It’s okay.” Jiang Yuan held the furball in her arms, gently stroking its back with her palm, and said with a light laugh, “Just call me Jiang Yuan.”
Tudou lazily lay on her lap and meowed comfortably, “Why is there such a fragrant human! I like it so much!”
Tu Shuyao was speechless at her furball’s behavior and couldn’t help but complain, “Oh my god, do you know, Tudou acts completely lifeless when it’s with me at home, but it puts on a different face when it sees a pretty girl!”
Fu Xiaoxiao was amused by her words, “Actually, it’s not your Tudou’s fault. It’s because Yuan Yuan is too likable to small animals.”
Tudou comfortably lay in Jiang Yuan’s arms, agreeing wholeheartedly, “That’s right, that’s right, it’s all because the pretty sister is too likable to cats!”
Hearing the cat’s words, Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, “How old is Tudou this year?”
“Almost three.”
“Two years old.”
Tu Shuyao and her furball answered simultaneously.
Jiang Yuan nodded, lowered her eyes to look at the little thing in her arms, and said tactfully, “You’ve raised him too well, he’s grown so big.”
“Everyone says I’ve raised him well, but he’s suddenly stopped eating for the past two weeks, and I’m so worried.” Tu Shuyao’s tone was full of worry, “Jiang Yuan, please help me see what’s wrong with Tudou.”
“I will.” Jiang Yuan rubbed Tudou’s head, her voice filled with a smile, “Tudou, can you tell me why you don’t want to eat?”
“Do I have to say it?” Tudou’s cat voice sounded muffled, as if unhappy.
Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow imperceptibly, “You don’t want to say it?”
Tudou’s fluffy head snuggled further into her arms, and it said faintly, “I don’t really want to, it feels too embarrassing for a cat.”
A hint of a smile spread across Jiang Yuan’s eyes, and the corners of her lips couldn’t help but turn up, “How so? I promise I won’t laugh at you, and if you tell me, I’ll know how to help you.”
Hearing this, Tudou lifted its head and looked at the people.
It frowned and thought for a long time, then sighed, “But the others didn’t promise.”
Jiang Yuan looked amused and said to the others, “Tudou wants you to promise not to laugh at it before it tells you the reason.”
Tu Shuyao was both angry and helpless, “You unfilial son, you’re even making me promise you.”
Although she called him an unfilial son, her actions were very doting, and she immediately made a promise.
Zhou Shuyu and Fu Xiaoxiao also quickly said that they wouldn’t laugh at it.
Jiang Yuan smoothed out the frown on the little cat’s forehead and asked softly, “Tudou, everyone has promised, can you tell me now?”
Tudou was finally satisfied and began to explain the reason why it had been refusing to eat recently.
“The other day, Yaoyao’s mom took the cat out to play, and the cat met a cat sister there. Her name is Puff, and she’s so beautiful.”
Seeing that it had stopped, Jiang Yuan asked, “And then?”
“She’s so beautiful, and the cat likes her very much!” Tudou said, sounding a little shy.
Jiang Yuan blinked and said with bewilderment, “But you liking her has nothing to do with you not wanting to eat, does it?”
“Of course it does!” Tudou’s expression became a little dejected, “The cat likes her, and the cat told her, asking if she would be the cat’s girlfriend.”
Jiang Yuan: “A brave cat for love.”
Tudou sighed, “But… Puff doesn’t like cats.”
Jiang Yuan quickly comforted it, “It’s okay, it’s okay, you’ll always meet a cat princess who appreciates you.”
“After being rejected, the cat tried playing with other females, but the feeling was different. Puff is still the best.” Tudou meowed sadly, “The cat just likes Puff.”
Jiang Yuan couldn’t help but sigh, “What a devoted and infatuated cat.”
“Yes, the cat is very infatuated!” Tudou felt proud of this.
“Then did you ask Puff why she didn’t like you?” Jiang Yuan brought the topic back.
“I asked!” Tudou became dejected again, “Puff said the cat is too fat, and she doesn’t like fat males.”
Jiang Yuan’s eyes flickered, and she instantly understood, “So, it’s because Puff said you’re too fat, and you’re not eating to lose weight?”
“Yes!” Tudou nodded its fluffy head, its round cat pupils showing determination, “The cat wants to get thin and become a male worthy of Puff!”
Tu Shuyao also understood the whole story through Jiang Yuan’s words.
“Unfilial son!” She was a little angry and glared at Tudou with wide eyes, “I thought you were sick and was so worried that I couldn’t eat or sleep, just like you, but you’re losing weight for another girl!”
Sensing her anger, Tudou immediately jumped between Jiang Yuan and Fu Xiaoxiao to hide.
“Why is Yaoyao’s mom angry?” it asked tremblingly.
“Don’t be afraid.” Jiang Yuan gently comforted it, “She’s just very worried about you.”
“Tudou, come out here!” Tu Shuyao grabbed a slipper and stood up, shouting, “I’m going to beat you today!”
Tudou curled into a ball, peeking out with one eye.
“Shuyao, don’t get agitated.” Zhou Shuyu said with a laugh, “Tudou is still a child.”
Tu Shuyao said annoyedly, “This kid is losing weight for another girl, what kind of child is that!”
Tudou meowed softly, “If you keep being so fierce, the cat will run away from home!”
