Chapter 16
Ever since he learned the lesson of "caring for one's master" from the mynah bird, Bai Gaoxing has paid more attention to Li Pu.
Of course, it’s not that he didn’t care about him before. He still cared about Li Pu very much - especially when there was no food in the lunch box.
For example, now, Li Pho has once again fallen into self-isolation on a beautiful sunny day. He looks at the empty lunch box, jumps out of the cage skillfully, walks slowly in front of the man, and says in a noble and cold voice: "Waiter, bring more rice."
The above are all Bai Gaoxing’s imagination.
He thought he couldn't explain how he learned the name "Xiao Wai", so he could only jump onto the sofa, tug at the man's pants with his paws, tilt his head and act cute, saying, "Rice, I'm so hungry!"
Unexpectedly, the man who used to always get up quickly to give him more food, today seemed to be completely immersed in his own world, with a blank look in his eyes and not moving at all.
Just as Bai Gaoxing was about to shake him again, a "ding" sound came from the kitchen.
The coffee is ready.
Bai Gaoxing glanced at Li Pu, turned around and flew towards the kitchen - his flying skills had become quite good, at least he would not crash into the wall or glass again, such as falling into the aquarium at the beginning would never happen again!
He flipped the switch, filled Li Pu's cup with coffee, switched to the keep warm mode, and finally flew out of the kitchen.
The coffee was very hot. Bai Gaoxing estimated the time, flew to a corner of the kitchen, and started the little whale.
"Little whale."
"Hello~How can I help you~"
"Just say anything."
"Hello~How can I help you~"
"So boring——"
"Hello~How can I help you~"
“…”
Bai Gaoxing tilted his head, "Sweeping mode."
"Okay, switched to sweeping mode."
Bai Gaoxing felt that this machine needed an upgrade.
He stood on the sweeping robot and followed it aimlessly, wandering around the living room before knocking open Li Pu's bedroom door.
The bedroom faces the sun and is so bright that it is a little dazzling.
Bai Gaoxing crouched down like a furry ball and followed the sweeping robot forward. He never expected that after almost two weeks at Li Pu's house, he had only opened three maps.
Living room, kitchen, bedroom.
In such a large flat, all other doors are usually locked. I don’t know what secrets are hidden there.
However, it is also conceivable that since Li Pho lives alone, these extra rooms are not used, so it is normal to lock them up.
Sleeping with the movie star is definitely a benefit that fans can never even dream of - this is probably what a normal person would think, but Bai Gaoxing just wanted to play with his phone.
Something black, rectangular, hard, shiny, and can be held in the palm of your hand.
While Bai Gaoxing was thinking about it with tears in his eyes, he was already being carried out of the bedroom by the sweeping robot and bumped into Li Pu's feet.
Li Pu was finally brought back to his senses by this collision and looked down at the ground.
The big snow-white parrot drooped its wings, and the tips of its wings seemed to be dragged. As if it noticed that he was looking at it, its round little head suddenly lifted up, its black eyes shone like gems, and the crest on its head swayed.
It's a little hard to refuse... Is this what it feels like to have a pet?
Li Pu pressed his eyebrows to pull himself out of his chaotic thoughts, then stood up - yes, coffee.
He thought so, but did not go to the kitchen. Instead, he bent down, picked up the parrot on the sweeping robot, and walked in another direction.
The parrot in his arms seemed surprised by his action. Its already round eyes widened even wider, filled with his figure.
Li Pu thought that this might be the reason why he could sleep better recently. After all, Dabai was so cute. When illuminated by the moonlight, his body seemed to emit a faint light. Just looking at him for a while would calm his mood.
Come to think of it, the "Career Manual" says that parrots like to take a bath... ?
Li Pu had read the manual thoroughly and vaguely remembered that parrots liked water and would take the initiative to bathe in the pool during the hot summer.
So - "Did you want to take a bath when you first came?" Li Pu carried Bai Gaoxing to the aquarium and gently gestured to it to look at the water that was constantly bubbling.
Bai Gaoxing and the fish inside stared at each other.
The fish thought that Li Pu was coming to feed them, so they swam over with their mouths wide open, as if they wanted to swallow Bai Gaoxing through the glass.
"No bath!" Bai Gaoxing shrank into Li Pu's arms in fear. Damn it, this guy wouldn't want to throw him in, would he?
Li Pu felt the struggle in his arms, and touched the soft spot on his head with his warm fingertips twice, saying without question, "It's time to wash it."
Then, Bai Gaoxing watched Li Pho push open a door he had never entered before, revealing what was inside - a sink, a partition door, a toilet, and a shower.
It's the bathroom...but why bring him here! ?
Bai Gaoxing was very suspicious that Li Pu had discovered his true identity, and immediately planned to ask him to perform a squat toilet performance on the spot.
While he was anxiously thinking about it, Li Pu had already put him on the sink. The cold temperature of the porcelain surface was transmitted to him through his claws, making Bai Gaoxing feel uneasy.
Li Pu went behind the isolation door to look for something, and Bai Gaoxing was finally able to look around. First, the mirror. This was the first time he looked in the mirror at home. It was clearer than the phone camera that day. The high-definition mirror with built-in soft light could clearly illuminate every inch of his body. The snow-white feathers were so bright that they reflected light, and it was easy to find the gray feather tips.
Ah... so this is how you take a bath.
Bai Gaoxing had to admit that the moment he saw the faucet, his parrot instinct began to stir. He couldn't help but step forward, raised his claws to pry open the faucet, tested the temperature with the tip of his wings, and then began to adjust the temperature.
Being small has its advantages.
Bai Gaoxing half-squatted in the water and sighed. He deliberately turned down the tap a little, and a thin stream of water flowed down his back. He could also touch the water everywhere to wash off the dust...
So, when Li Pu finally dug out a basin from the corner, he came out and saw that his extremely smart parrot had turned on the faucet at some point and was trying to step on the pump of the hand sanitizer.
Was he a little too smart...? This thought instantly reached its peak in Li Pu's mind when he saw Bai Gaoxing stand up and turn off the faucet.
He had heard of pets at home turning on the faucet when they were enjoying themselves, so he had always been on guard against Dabai doing that, but he never expected that... Dabai could not only "turn it on", but also "turn it off".
The weather has been very warm lately, and now all you need is a towel or some sun.
Li Pu symbolically wiped the parrot's feathers, then moved the steel stand in the bedroom to the more empty balcony in the living room. The large white parrot, covered with water droplets, trembled as if it had been electrocuted, and all the water droplets were shaken off.
The victims turned into glass.
Li Pu looked at the parrot in an indescribable way for a while, then went to the kitchen to pour coffee.
The man no longer closed the bathroom door tightly.
Bai Gaoxing discovered this in the evening.
Maybe she tacitly allowed him to go to the toilet? Bai Gaoxing guessed, but when he flew to the toilet, he found that the toilet lid was still tightly closed.
"Don't fall." Li Pu, who happened to be going to the toilet, opened the toilet lid and said to Bai Gaoxing who was standing on the flush tank as a reminder.
Then he started zipping.
Wait, what is he going to do?
Bai Gaoxing's eyes widened, and finally flew away before the zipper was pulled to the end, knocking over the toothbrush cup on the shelf when it turned a corner.
Li Pu: “?”
…
Finally, another boring day is over.
Before dinner, Li Pu finally remembered to take a look at the food box in the cage, which was filled up for him. He did not miss the guilt in the man's eyes, and frantically grabbed several mouthfuls of food on the table without being stopped.
This wave is his victory!
The braised eggplant tasted very good and the fish soup was also very fragrant. Bai Gaoxing smacked his lips, savoring tonight's dinner, and then when he saw Li Pho sitting on the sofa again, he quickly came behind him.
In the past, he would not have been willing to stare blankly at the other person, but this time, Li Pu picked up the phone!
Remember the plan to get your password?
Bai Gaoxing stood nervously behind Li Pu, watching his fingertips about to touch the fingerprint area.
Before this, he had already secretly pressed the phone, so he must enter the password next time!
He can't wait!
Bai Gaoxing stared at him intently, but Li Pu did not take the next step. Instead, he turned his head slightly and asked, "Dabai?"
The man had already noticed that something was wrong with the parrot tonight. For example, it had been clamoring to turn on the TV long before, or riding a sweeping robot around the house, or at least squatting in front of the aquarium and staring at the fish all night.
But now, it was squatting quietly behind him.
"What's wrong?" Li Pu patiently put down his phone and turned around to ask.
How did you let it go?
Bai Gaoxing found it difficult to understand.
Li Pu recalled the old man's words yesterday, "Spend more time with your little one. No matter what you do, there are always other people around you, but it only has you."
He did feel that...Dabai was a little lonely.
Although he had only kept it for less than half a month, he certainly didn't pay enough attention to it.
There are two types of parakeets, one is gregarious and the other is solitary. As a gregarious parakeet, Dabai must prefer living in groups and company.
But he didn't have enough time to get a second one.
And, Wang Peter reminded him - "It's enough to have one parrot, so it will be closer to you. Of course, if you want it to chat with its companions day and night, or if you get complaints from neighbors, then go ahead, I won't stop you."
So... should we think of another way...?
Seeing that Li Pu was lost in thought again, Bai Gaoxing couldn't tell whether he was sick or not, so he tentatively continued to tell him jokes.
He came back yesterday and told a joke, and it worked pretty well!
Bai Gaoxing thought hard for a while and said the first sentence: "It's so cold~"
At this time, Li Pu also moved. He pressed his mobile phone and a prompt box for entering the password popped up.
Bai Gaoxing changed his voice: "Then go squat in the corner!"
He saw Li Pho enter the first number: 0.
Bai Gaoxing took note of it and changed back to the original voice: "Why are you going to the corner?"
Then 2 and 1.
Finally, he concluded: "Because the corner of the wall is 90 degrees!"
Li Pho's fingertips paused for a moment, and finally stopped at "1".
Phone is unlocked.
0211,0211... Bai Gaoxing repeated the password several times in his mind, and felt that the password was more and more familiar.
He also used it because it was...
The next second, Li Pu raised his head, as if asking, or talking to himself: "Dabai, why don't we find a more suitable master for you?"
What——? ?
The big snow-white parrot had a dazed look on its face.
Bai Gaoxing didn't know what crime he had committed. Could it be that he was being sent away just for telling a joke? ? ?
Can't you just stop talking about it!!!
