I'll even show you crossdressing men.

Back in his residence, Ji Xiuyu sat on his bed, lost in thought, pondering his own affairs and feeling somewhat at a loss, when Canghua's voice suddenly rang out, giving him a glimmer of joy: "System notification..."

Chapter 84: Helping her out

"System notification: Since the host's own energy was insufficient for successful bloodline awakening, the system used all its willpower to convert into energy and then consumed the system's own energy to complete the process. After issuing this message, the system will enter a long period of slumber until the host has collected 50,000 units of willpower. However, given the host's current special circumstances, in order to ensure the host's absolute safety, the system has made the following arrangements before entering slumber."

"First: During the system's dormancy period, the host can change gender on their own."

"Second: Activate the charm aura of your bloodline ability."

"Third: Under the protection consciousness left over from the system, if it is found that a male body would pose a danger to the host under certain circumstances, it will be forcibly transformed into a female body."

"Fourth: The passive ability 'Iron Maiden' is attached. No one can obtain the host's body without the host's consent."

"Fifth: Activate the ability 'Genius Beauty', and you will possess all the talents you need."

"Note: Since activating the above abilities requires consuming the power of the system's origin, the system's awakened willpower will double, requiring 100,000 willpower. Please replenish it as soon as possible. Note: The system will automatically provide a notification after you obtain 10,000 willpower."

Canghua's sudden notification initially made him quite happy, but after seeing the message that it would take 50,000 units of willpower to reactivate the system, he fell silent.

But the subsequent unauthorized activation of several system abilities left Ji Xiuyu completely bewildered. What was going on here?

The first one is alright; it's an ability to protect oneself and can be used when one's identity is exposed.

The second allure halo is obviously something that will bring a lot of trouble. Doesn't she already have enough trouble already?

The third one left him speechless. Wasn't it supposed to be a period of slumber? What kind of nonsense is this, secretly manipulating the outcome?

The fourth item, the Iron Maiden, he thought about it and figured it probably wouldn't be very useful, since he was mostly male and only used his female body occasionally.

As for the fifth point, he didn't quite understand it. What was it for?

Of course, none of this combined felt as strongly as the final revelation. It all seemed like he'd been tricked. He even began to suspect that the previous 50,000 vows might have been fabricated, and the real number might not even be half of that.

However, upon reflection, he dismissed the idea. After all, the system had consumed so much energy for his bloodline awakening, so it was normal for it to need to replenish itself, even if it was a bit much.

"Now I should be safe, right?" His biggest worry was that his safety couldn't be guaranteed. In this dangerous place, if a weakling has no ability to defend himself, even if someone protects him, he will inevitably suffer.

"Phew, I wonder where he is now." Although this man was arrogant and had a bad temper, and didn't pay any attention to her at all, Ji Xiuyu still really wanted to know where he was.

"Hmm?" Just as he was lost in thought, the gate outside the courtyard opened, and four maids came over carrying a square wooden tray made of mahogany.

One of the maids, whose hair was styled in a bun, bowed respectfully upon entering the room and seeing him: "Miss Ji, the Third Young Master has sent us to help you bathe and change."

Ji Xiuyu wasn't curious about their arrival, but rather about the person they were talking about: "Third Young Master?"

"He is the third young master of the Wangquan family, your future husband, the man we servants will serve from now on, Young Master Wangquan Tianxia." She answered without looking up when she heard the girl's question.

"The people you will be serving from now on?" Ji Xiuyu couldn't contain her curiosity and wanted to know what it meant.

“From now on, we will be your servants in the Wangquan family. You can order us around to help you with anything. When Miss marries the Third Young Master, we will also go and serve him.” The girl remained bowed, her tone respectful.

"A personal servant... It seems I'll be living here for quite some time." Indeed, if one didn't need to live here for an extended period, why would one need a servant?

"Yes, until you married into the royal family." The girl nodded, responding to her question.

"Then, may I know your names?" Seeing her like this, Ji Xiuyu stopped asking and instead became concerned about the girl's name.

"My name is Chu Xue, the one in blue is Chu Yun, the one in red is Chu Yu, and the one in green is Chu Ying." She was wearing white, so calling herself Chu Xue was fitting.

Silently noting down the names of several girls, he couldn't help but think of the maids in his own household, hoping they wouldn't worry about him.

He hoped they wouldn't know his current situation. After all, the Chu family was no match for the Wang family now. What would happen if they found out he was here and came over immediately?

"Are these clothes for me to change into?" Ji Xiuyu looked at them and found that there were four different kinds of clothes.

A white Hanfu with flowing clouds, a black kimono adorned with cherry blossoms, a deep red cheongsam, and a pure purple long dress with only lace and intricate patterns.

"Yes, young master said that you can change it however you like," Chu Xue replied softly, confirming her guess.

"Okay." At this point, she had no right to refuse. It was just changing clothes, so whatever.

Seeing that Ji Xiuyu had agreed, Chu Xue and the others turned around and led Ji Xiuyu into a small building.

"Please take a bath inside, we will serve you." Ji Xiuyu heard them say this after she followed them here, and she breathed a sigh of relief at the system's timely intervention, at least she wouldn't be recognized now.

Nodding slowly, Ji Xiuyu went inside. Chu Xue and the others followed, and after turning around and closing the door, they saw Ji Xiuyu walk to the steaming pool.

She bent down to take off her white high heels, reached to her waist, and slowly untied the thin strings of her cheongsam.

Then she raised her hand to gather her long, beautiful hair in front of her, and then took off her cheongsam, revealing her exquisite and graceful back to Chu Xue and the others.

Even as a girl, seeing such a beautiful scene makes my heart race, and I feel like I'm about to get a nosebleed.

"What a beauty! Only a woman like her is worthy of the young master, isn't she?" they all thought to themselves.

However, what they didn't know was that Wang Quan Tianxia not only had no interest in Ji Xiuyu, but also didn't want to see her.

"Even I, when I see my own female body, am momentarily stunned." Not only them, even Ji Xiuyu herself felt a little unable to control herself when she saw a female body.

Although she is attracted to men, her beauty transcends gender.

When Chu Xue and the others were thinking about something deeper, what happened before their eyes almost made them pop out of their sockets.

Chapter 85: The Beauty in a Kimono

Ji Xiuyu slowly bent down and took off her pure white underwear. The moment she lifted her leg, her enchanting scenery was faintly visible under her moon-white long hair, which stunned Chu Xue and the others.

Then, she untied the white lace camisole, lifted her leg, and took off the white stockings, placing them on the ground.

When the naked girl displayed her perfect figure, even the faint golden light in the bathroom under the setting sun seemed to dim, captivated by her beauty.

She stretched out her feet to test the water temperature and found it to be quite warm, perfectly suited to her constitution, before happily immersing herself in it.

"What a comfortable bath." The petals floated on the water's surface. The girl reached out and scooped up a handful of water and a few petals, blew on them, and sent the petals flying back to the water's surface.

It seemed that because it was so much fun, she couldn't stop after doing it several times.

Watching the girl playing alone, Chu Xue and the others sighed inwardly. Every move she made, every smile she gave, exuded a unique charm. No wonder she was chosen as the betrothed.

If she had been born in the capital, her family would probably have been constantly begging for marriage proposals from the time she was a teenager.

The title of the so-called number one beauty in the capital will surely fall on her, not on Liu Qingli.

After all, from any perspective, she is only more outstanding than Liu Qingli, and not inferior to her.

Perhaps that person's talent would earn them some points, but faced with such stunning beauty, even the greatest talent is useless.

Her appearance perfectly illustrates an ancient Chinese saying praising a beauty: "A smile can topple a city, a second smile can topple a nation." She truly was a beauty that could topple kingdoms.

However, they also had some concerns. Could their safety be guaranteed if such a beautiful young girl became their future master?

In this place, people die inexplicably all the time. They don't know if they will be in danger if one day a woman becomes jealous of their beauty and regards them as enemies.

More importantly, after marrying into the Wangquan family, would Wangquan Tianxia, ​​with her and Liu Qingli, even glance at them? They estimated it would be very difficult.

No, not to mention them, even Liu Qingli's position is in jeopardy; she is simply too outstanding.

Ji Xiuyu had no idea what the maids were thinking; she just wanted to wash herself properly.

In the past, her life consisted of nothing but reading, taking baths, and sleeping.

Now that she has such a large place to take a bath, she is in a very good mood.

In fact, the maids' worries about someone being jealous of Hime Hideyu were unfounded.

Putting aside whether she would gain the favor of the king, judging from that man's personality, even if Ji Xiuyu married him, she would probably only be relegated to a semi-cold palace position—provided that Ji Xiuyu would actually marry him.

Because of her low social status, she naturally wouldn't be valued by many people, and fewer people would want to harm her.

Another point is Ji Xiuyu's charm that appeals to both men and women. Perhaps it takes longer to work on women, unlike the instant attraction she feels for men. But it still makes them like her, preventing them from harming her.

Aside from those who are inherently malicious towards her, or monsters who are completely oblivious to romance, how big of a heart would someone have to be to want to hurt her?

The Chu family's talent is no joke.

"Phew, much better." After soaking in the water for more than half an hour and washing her body, Ji Xiuyu slowly stood up from the warm water and returned to the ground.

Looking at the girl's body from behind already felt a bit strange, but after seeing her beautiful body from the front, Chu Xue and the others covered their noses in unison.

Looking at them with some confusion, Ji Xiuyu frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Is my scent strange?"

"No, no." Chu Xue quickly shook her head. She couldn't very well tell her that it was because she saw her body that she had a natural reaction, could she? She was still a girl, and there was no need to say it out loud.

"Then why are you guys covering your noses? If it's not their fault, why are you covering your noses?"

"Oh, it's nothing." To prevent her from overthinking, Chu Xue and the others exchanged glances and then lowered their hands.

Seeing their red noses, Ji Xiuyu became even more curious, but she didn't press them for details and let them be.

"Please choose an outfit to change into, miss." They had just been carrying several basins with one hand; if they hadn't been physically strong, they probably wouldn't have been able to handle it.

"This one, please." Pointing to the kimono on the rain basin, Ji Xiuyu chose it. She had worn many different styles of clothing, including Hanfu, cheongsam, and long skirts, but rarely kimonos. This time, she wanted to try one out.

"Please let us help you put it on." After placing the other outfits on the ground, Hatsuyuki picked up the kimono and walked to her. The other girls then took out their undergarments and helped her put them on.

"No, it's a bit too small." The underwear was fine; he closed his eyes and helped her put it on, at least he wouldn't be tempted to the point of getting a nosebleed. But when Ji Xiu was using her body, these breasts were too big, and neither of the two sets of underwear they brought could fit.

"Take mine instead." Having prepared long ago, Ji Xiuyu took out a black garment from her spatial storage and handed it to Chuyu.

Chu Yu took it and put it on her; everything seemed just right.

Finally, it was the first snow that dressed her in a kimono.

The moment the kimono was put on Hime Hideyu's body, her beauty seemed to surpass even her former glory, and her irresistible charm became even more apparent.

Standing by the window, Ji Xiuyu turned around, suddenly frowned, and said, "Chu Xue, give me a pen with red dye."

Upon hearing this, Chu Xue immediately left the bathroom, went to the bedroom, and found a red makeup brush.

With her bare shoulder partially exposed, Ji Xiuyu picked up her brush and painted a red lotus flower on her right shoulder, making her look even more beautiful.

She remembered what Wang Quan Tianxia had told her, but for the sake of her escape plan, she still chose to make herself even more outstanding.

After finishing the flower, she put down her brush, leaving her half-exposed bodice untouched, revealing her snow-white shoulders, the beautiful red lotus, and a small portion of her breasts.

Looking at herself with satisfaction, all that was left was to put on makeup. Even though her skin was flawless, the young woman still decided to wear makeup. Because it would make her look even more beautiful.

Back in the bedroom, sitting in front of the vanity mirror, Ji Xiuyu looked at the things around her. This room must have been prepared for her. The fact that someone slept next to her was just because of someone else's arrangement.

Time passed quietly, and when Wang Quan Tianxia returned at the exact time, the scene before him left him stunned...
