Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Feng Yuanxi found Gu Xiaonan inside the room at Shallow Clouds Residence.
He sat on the bed, legs crossed, with Xiaobai lying beside him. In his hand, he held Xiaomei, wanting her to sing for him.
Xiaomei struggled to escape his grasp.
“Naughty Xiaomei, I’m not happy, and you don’t even want to sing a song for me? Do you still recognize me as your young master? Hmph! I can see that you don’t like me at all! Are you going to abandon me too?”
“Feathers! My feathers! My beautiful feathers!” Xiaomei cried, her voice tinged with tears, and two teardrops formed in her round eyes.
Xiaobai raised his small paw and gently patted Gu Xiaonan’s leg, chirping softly, his voice slightly lower than usual, patiently comforting him.
Feng Yuanxi entered the room, and everyone present, including a person and two pets, immediately stopped talking and turned their attention to him.
Seeing it was Feng Yuanxi, Gu Xiaonan’s tense body relaxed, and he lowered his head to continue questioning Xiaomei as if Xiaomei were an unfaithful lover.
The green parrot, originally despondent, saw Feng Yuanxi as a savior and quickly sought his help. “Yuanxi, Yuanxi, save me! Save Xiaomei! Don’t let Xiaomei become bald!”
Feng Yuanxi closed the door, walked to the bedside, and rescued Xiaomei from Gu Xiaonan’s hands.
“What are you doing?” Gu Xiaonan glared at him. “Just because you’re my mother’s son doesn’t mean 1 won’t hit you!”
Feng Yuanxi gently smoothed Xiaomei’s feathers and then released her.
Xiaomei immediately flew up to the ceiling beam, her two small eyes watchful of Gu Xiaonan, afraid that he might suddenly pounce on her again.
Gu Xiaonan continued to glare at Feng Yuanxi, completely ignoring Xiaomei.
Feng Yuanxi asked softly, “Xiaonan, are you upset with Father?”
“No, I’m not!” Gu Xiaonan replied loudly, but it sounded more like he was protesting too much.
Feng Yuanxi said, “We have a special connection, Xiaonan. I know what you’re thinking.”
Gu Xiaonan turned his head away, displeased. “Fine, I’m angry with him! He wasn’t there when the Jun Residence was in crisis. He only showed up after we had everything under control, and he was useless!”
Feng Yuanxi walked up to him. “It’s not because of that.”
Gu Xiaonan frowned. “Stinky Yuanxi, I’m not in a good mood right now. Don’t come and argue with me, or I’ll beat you up too!”
He waved his small fist, threatening the other person.
Feng Yuanxi wasn’t afraid at all and directly asked, “You actually want to acknowledge Daddy, don’t you?”
“No! Don’t talk nonsense!” Gu Xiaonan widened his eyes.
“You can deceive others, but you can’t deceive me,” Feng Yuanxi said with a slight smile.
Gu Xiaonan and he locked eyes for a moment, then heaved a sigh and muttered softly, “So annoying, why do I have a twin brother.”
Feng Yuanxi squinted his eyes and corrected him, “I am the older brother.”
“No, you’re the younger brother! Stupid younger brother!” Gu Xiaonan insisted.
The two of them started arguing over who was the older brother and who was the younger brother.
Xiaobai and Xiaomei exchanged glances.
Their young master’s attention had been diverted, so he probably wouldn’t dwell on sad things for the time being.
Despite the argument, they managed to restrain themselves from getting physical.
Nevertheless, after a while, they were both red-faced and panting, lying on the bed like two pancakes.
After a good while, Feng Yuanxi turned to look at Gu Xiaonan. “If you don’t mind, I can find out what Daddy thinks of you.”
“No, you’re not allowed to say anything!” Gu Xiaonan said angrily. “Stupid Daddy! He deserves to have one less son! If he doesn’t want to be my father, there are plenty of people who do! Once we’ve stabilized the Dingbei Army, I’ll find a husband for Mother. I don’t believe I can’t find a better daddy than him!”
Feng Yuanxi was taken aback by his words. “You’re not really going to find a husband for Mother, are you? Daddy would be furious..”
