Following his gaze, Feng Guang saw that a fledgling bird, whose feathers had just sprouted, had reached the dangerous edge of the nest. If it wasn't careful, it would fall off. There were no adult birds in the nest, perhaps they had gone to forage for food. This little bird was like a spoiled child who had lost its parental care.
She couldn't help but pull her hand away from An Yi's, took a few steps closer to the tree, nervously looked at the bird's nest in the tree, and stretched out her two hands below the bird's nest.
An Yi asked, puzzled, "Feng Guang, what are you doing?"
She stared intently at the tree. "I want to save this fledgling. It would be such a shame if it fell and died."
"If you don't want it to die, then I won't let it die."
She turned back and blinked. "Really?"
"real."
"Then how do you prevent it from dying?"
An Yi smiled, then walked behind the locust tree. When he came out again, he was carrying a cage with birds inside. The birds in the cage cried even louder when they saw the chicks in the nest.
“These days, I’ve gradually been able to touch real objects. The bird in the cage is the mother of the chicks. If I release it, the chicks won’t die.”
Feng Guang didn't quite understand, "Why would the mother bird be kept in a cage?"
“I found an empty birdcage in an empty room, and... I was also curious about what would happen to the chicks that lost their mother, but Fengguang didn’t want the chicks to die, so I released the mother bird from the cage.”
An Yi opened the cage, and the mother bird immediately flapped her wings and flew out. The mother bird returned to the nest, and the chicks also returned to safety from the edge of the nest.
Feng Guang remained silent for a long time. "What happens to chicks that lose their mother? Why are you curious about that?"
“I don’t know.” He placed the cage on the stone table and then naturally took her hand. “Maybe it’s because I’m too bored.”
Or perhaps... he finds the idea of maternal love strange because he doesn't understand it, and therefore finds it strange.
His bewildered look made Feng Guang unable to feel any resentment. She sighed, "An Yi, you can't do this kind of thing anymore. Chicks that lose their mother may die. That's the result. Don't be curious about this kind of thing anymore."
“If Feng Guang doesn’t like it, then I won’t do it anymore.” An Yi’s expression was calm and peaceful, and the corners of his mouth curved into a smile. In his smile, you could see that he didn’t think what he was doing was wrong; he was only stopping because she didn’t like it.
He appears to be a gentle and refined person, and his personality is indeed so gentle that it makes people feel good about him. Yet, this gentle person seems to have the deepest, most chilling indifference hidden in his bones.
Even more so, these two extreme characteristics don't feel out of place on him.
Feng Guang thought, maybe he had been a ghost for too long and had forgotten the emotions that belong to normal people.
She never expected that there were such people in this world, people who were born with personality defects. Because of these defects, they would also be more paranoid. And just so happens, An Yi is one of these people.
Feng Guang felt that since he was her target, she had a responsibility to help him rediscover the emotions he had forgotten. Even if the love between a human and a ghost was not over, it had to lead to a happy ending!
"An Yi, let's go on a date tomorrow."
His bright eyes flickered slightly, "A date..."
"We burned a lot of costumes, so we can't film tomorrow. Since we have time tomorrow, I'll take you to see a movie. Hmm... there don't seem to be many movies showing recently, so how about we watch a romance movie?"
He chuckled softly, as gentle as a spring breeze, "Okay."
