Rebirth: Never Live Up to You - C25
There were probably not many people in the hospital who were as idle as she was. She tore open the packaging and threw a few pieces of bread into the water. The golden and black fish ate in the water, and then she broke off some more and sprinkled more into the water.
“Su Wenjin, I didn’t tell you to wait in the pavilion.” When she turned around, she saw him standing behind her with a dark expression. His breathing was a little ragged, and his thin lips were pursed tightly, a sign of his anger. She continued to break off a piece of debris and threw it into the water, answering the question: “Has Great Beauty Xu left?”
“Warm, I have nothing to do with her.”
She looked at the bright and beautiful sky without any sign of rain, then looked at him and smiled, “I didn’t hear wrong, did I?”
“I don’t believe that you would hear wrong.” Chi Yinan walked to her side, snorted at the bread in her hand and pulled her back. She didn’t struggle and was led back to the ward.
After staying in the hospital for three days, she finally got permission from the doctor to leave the hospital. She could finally leave the hospital, but she told the wound on her forehead not to touch water, that it was best to avoid food, and that she would come to remove the stitches in a few days.
Chi Yinan didn’t let her carry her luggage to the door of her house with a bag in each hand. She was surprised that Chen had not come to the hospital today because Chen was almost his shadow.
“The key is in the left pocket.”
Chi Yinan signaled with his eyes for the key in her pants pocket. She was going to ring the doorbell, but he insisted that she take the key, which wouldn’t be easy. He reached into his pocket, pulled out the key, and opened the door.
“Young Madam, you’re finally back. You’ve lost weight. I’ll cook a pot of soup for you tonight to properly nourish your wounds.” Although Auntie Xue was a servant, she treated her very well. Because of her nimble hands and feet and her gentle personality, she stayed at the house for dozens of years. After they got married, they were called over by Chi Yinan because he was not used to other servants.
“Thank you, Auntie Xue. Where’s Lu Ziyun?”
“Upstairs, I was just saying that you were coming back.” Before Auntie Xue could finish her sentence, Lu Hua Hua came down with a pair of slippers. In her hand was a cage covered with a black cloth. She didn’t know what was nourishing inside.
Su Wenjin’s curiosity was piqued. She had to get to the bottom of this. While Lu Hua wasn’t paying attention, she lifted up the black cloth, revealing a colorful bird inside. The flower inside was the same as Lu Ziruo’s, and she teased him immediately: “As expected, what kind of person keeps what kind of bird? Chi Yinan, what do you think.”
Chi Yinan could not help but nod his head and didn’t say anything else. He took off his coat and hung it on the shelf, waiting to see the fight between the two of them.
Upon hearing these words, Lu Ziyun’s anger immediately flared up. He pointed at the colorful bird in the cage and said, “That’s your aunt. Shout a little.”
The bird inside the cage obediently greeted her with an ‘aunt’. Its eyes swiveled as it stood on the pole with its little yellow claws. It seemed to despise her as it flapped its wings. Gulu gulu. It then circled on the pole and faced her.
He held it up in the living room and happily teased it while talking. Su Wenjin was a little angry, an animal was indeed a beast, but it was only a parrot. She was reciting “like a flock of birds” in her mouth.
She didn’t return to her bedroom for a few days. She threw herself into the sofa and took out her cell phone from her bag to turn it on. Soon, a call came in.
“Warm.” She wanted to mock him, but he just so happened to come in, so she immediately hung up and hugged her pillow in front of her chest as if nothing had happened.
“What’s that on your face?”
Ah? There was something on her face, and she quickly wiped it away with her hand.
“Go wash up.”
She suspiciously put down her pillow and went to the bathroom. The face in the mirror didn’t seem like much. She slightly raised her chin, so she was talking about here.
Chi Yinan looked at the phone beside him. There was a call record of 5 seconds, so he called it back.
“Warm, don’t hang up.”
Chi Yinan sneered into the phone, “CEO Lin, this sound doesn’t seem to be appropriate.”
When Su Wenjin came out, she saw Chi Yinan looking for a charger with her cell phone. She immediately walked over and politely rejected him, then took out the charger from the drawer.
“When you’re done, come down and eat.”
Ever since that colorful parrot had given Lu Ziyun some face, he had purposely placed it on a chair and placed it on top of the meal. It made him look like a man and a beast, making him feel rather happy.
“The doctor said you should avoid spicy food.” The chopsticks on her plate were opened by Chi Yinan, and her low voice made no room for resistance. A chicken leg was already in the bowl. She liked meat, but that didn’t mean she liked greasy chicken legs.
“The doctor said I should have something light.” She pushed the chicken leg into Chi Yinan’s bowl and saw that he was frowning.
She was in such a good mood. She was a petty woman.
Lu Ziyun’s gaze landed on the couple as his thoughts raced.
After the meal, she found an excuse to go upstairs and sleep, but she didn’t know when he left. Anyway, when she woke up, he was no longer home, even Auntie Xue wasn’t home, the empty house seemed even more lonely. She sat on the terrace in the living room with a book in a drawer, and after reading two lines, a “Aunt” completely broke her good mood.
His precious parrot was hanging on the balcony, and the colorful parrot was hopping around in the cage. Sometimes, it would lower its head to peck at some food, and its eyes would stare at her. It was flapping its wings provocatively.
She had never raised a bird before, and she didn’t know how to raise a bird, but looking at the parrot in the cage, it could be said that it was one of the best. It seemed that Lu Hua had spent quite a bit of money to get it to take the cage from the hook and carry it to the tea table, and only when she looked closely did she realize that the parrot had bright black eyes. There was no color in them at all.
Su Wenjin had never raised a bird before, but she felt that this parrot was quite fun. At least it could relieve the boredom when it was bored, so she didn’t know what it would say. She told it, “Flower Lu”, but she didn’t expect it to be this smart.
Looking at its smooth fur and cute beak, she really wanted to touch it, but she was scared that if she opened the cage, it would fly away. Thus, she carried the cage upstairs, closed the door and windows, and carefully let go of the cage.
Seeing that it was wandering around inside and couldn’t come out, she opened the door of the cage even wider. Not long later, it flew out and landed on the glass tea table, calling out “Aunt” to her.
“You little thing, you’re not allowed to call me aunt next time. You have to call me big sister.” Su Wenjin felt the colorful fur on its body and felt very comfortable. It was really fortunate that Lu Ziruo got such a treasure, he stretched out his hands and stretched out his wings, probably hurting it. He rubbed her hand and pecked at her hand with his beak.
The parrot flew around the room, bringing down the antiques that Chi Yinan had bought at a high price from the French auction. There were also pieces of debris on the floor, and Chi Yinan’s favorite oil painting was imprinted with bird droppings in the middle, which were especially obvious on the glass frame. She wanted to hit it down with the broom, but it could feel her hands and feet were light.
She was too engrossed in fighting the parrot that she didn’t even hear the sound of footsteps on the stairs. It was only when the door was opened by someone and she waved her broom at the parrot that she realized Chi Yinan had returned and stood calmly by the door.
The parrot flew past him, but Su Wenjin couldn’t dodge in time. A wound appeared on his face from the claw of the parrot, and blood was seeping out. At this moment, Su Wenjin felt that the world had quietened down.
Chi Yinan touched the wound on her face and suppressed the anger in her chest. Looking at the messy bedroom, she had the illusion that she had walked into the wrong place, and when her eyes fell on a pile of debris on the ground, a fire flickered in her eyes. She immediately stood in front of the oil painting to block the bird poop on it.
“Chi Yinan, is your face alright?” She was still thinking about his face. If such a handsome young master of the Chi family was disfigured because of a parrot, how terrible would that be? He would probably want to chop off the parrot soup to drink.
Chi Yinan’s pupils moved and he stopped laughing. He looked at the parrot that was still flying in the air, then looked around the bedroom, then looked at the woman in front of him. His palm sized face and pointed chin were all covered by bangs, and his eyes were bright and clear as he placed his hand on her neck.
Su Wangjing was shocked. Could it be that he was already on the verge of strangling her? He opened his mouth and said, “Chi Yinan, it’s against the law to kill someone.”
He paused for a moment. “Heh heh … Warmth. When will you be able to relieve me of this worry?”
Hearing her words, both of them were stunned. She did not expect that the famous cold-blooded and proud Chi Yinan could say such pampered words. Furthermore, this person was still facing her.
