Chapter 6 This kid has been with me since he was young
Huo Xiang looked in the direction of the voice and saw a grey figure flying towards him.
It flapped its wings and landed directly on Huo Xiang's shoulder.
This must be the parrot that Li Guixun mentioned!
It had a beautiful cluster of yellow feathers on its head and two round orange blushes on its face. It tilted its head and looked at Huo Xiang with its round little eyes.
He remembered where he had seen this kind of parrot before, and it seemed to be a cockatiel.
"Shun Shun!"
Li Guixun called out, but the parrot acted as if it didn't hear him and continued to look at Huo Xiang curiously.
Huo Xiang stretched out his hand, intending to touch it, but it jumped directly into the palm of Huo Xiang's hand, as if to say "I'll come closer, you can touch me as you like".
"Is its name Shun Shun? It's really well behaved. This name suits it very well!"
Li Guixun: “…”
He thought to himself that this is not the same as that! Could it be that his previous painstaking training finally worked?
Usually when there are people at home, this little guy will hide and sleep, and won't come out no matter how you call him.
One time Dong Dongdong came home and teased it on purpose. It flew to Dong Dongdong's hand, cursing at him and turned its butt... and pooped a big pile on him.
But then again, is his Xiangxiang an ordinary person? Who wouldn’t like it!
()
He is indeed his precious son who was raised with great effort. He will have to reward him with some snacks later.
Hahaha, well done, you really make your dad proud!
When Huo Xiang turned around, he saw Li Guixun's face full of an "I'm proud" expression.
It was like at a parents-teacher meeting, the math teacher suddenly praised the parent of the only poor student who got the last big question right.
"Mr. Li?"
"Ah? What's wrong?"
Huo Xiang laughed and said, "Nothing, I just think your parrot is so smart. It can actually call my name, and it speaks so clearly!"
Huo Xiang guessed that it must be Li Guixun who conducted emergency training.
He used to say Shun Shun was stupid, but he is obviously very smart. Doesn’t he know that being too humble becomes hypocrisy? !
If Li Guixun knew what Huo Xiang was thinking, he would definitely cry out that he was wronged.
In fact, Shun Shun really only knows how to say this...
Of course Li Guixun didn’t say what was in his mind.
Recalling the way this ancestor usually holds grudges, and how he struggled to teach it to talk, he forced a smile: "Haha, yes, our Shun Shun is the smartest. I fell in love with it at first sight, and I thought it had the most handsome features!"
When Shun Shun heard this, he finally looked at him and called out in agreement twice.
He turned his head again and rubbed it in Huo Xiang's palm.
"Xiangxiang, hello - hello -"
Huo Xiang's heart was about to melt. He gently stroked Shun Shun's feathers and said softly, "Hello to you too! Shun Shun, we will see each other often in the future. Please take good care of me!"
Unexpectedly, Shun Shun immediately raised his head, nodded his little head, and said rhythmically: "Take good care of me! Take good care of me!"
Li Guixun was petrified on the spot.
ヽ( )!!!
Just learned a new sentence so easily?
Then what about his teaching with all his might for at least an hour every day for five years?
Is it because he treats people differently according to their status?
Li Guixun looked at the ceiling at a 45-degree angle. Ah, it was all in vain after all!
But since the target is Xiangxiang, there is no problem.
This kid has been with me since he was young, hehe.
(ˇˇ)
Besides, there’s nothing wrong with a son sticking to his mother. Isn’t it human nature?
Huo Xiang had never been in the workplace before, let alone working in someone else's home. I originally thought that I would feel somewhat uncomfortable when I arrived at Li Guixun's house today.
Who knew that I would find a sense of belonging because of a parrot.
Another thing is that the soft furnishings of the Li family, designed by someone unknown, made Huo Xiang feel indescribably warm and pleasing to the eye.
Li Guixun placed Huo Xiang on the second floor, and he also lived on the second floor, but they were at the east and west ends, separated by several rooms.
His sister Li Weiwei lives on the first floor because of her mobility problems. But she is not at home these two days and will be back tomorrow.
Li Guixun then introduced Huo Xiang to the family's driver, gardener, chef, cleaner, and bodyguard, and everyone was very kind to him.
Huo Xiang was a little surprised, but he just thought that the Li family had good education and high-quality employees.
but--
"Mr. Li, you have two chefs at home, why are you looking for me?"
Huo Xiang sat at the dining table, looking at the delicious food on the table, and asked somewhat at a loss.
He thought he was here to serve others, but... it seemed like he was here as a guest.
Li Guixun, who was standing by, replied as a matter of course: "I didn't ask you to help us cook. You are a nutritionist, so you are naturally responsible for my sister's nutritional advice, management and guidance."
Does this thing need a full-time home resident? Aren't you really just burning money?
Well, maybe poverty limited his imagination.
Huo Xiang suddenly began to doubt whether he was really capable of doing such a "high-end" job.
He just got a nutritionist certification and can cook some home-cooked meals. He has no idea what a rich family's daughter's nutritionist does!
Forget it, let’s just make the best of it!
Li Guixun saw his dilemma and suggested:
"If you think the job is too easy, you can help me take care of Shun Shun when you are free, teach him to speak a few words or something. I think he likes you very much."
Huo Xiang nodded, and only then did he feel a little relieved.
Then Li Guixun continued, "Also, I'd like to trouble you to occasionally pay attention to and give me some guidance on my nutrition issues... During my growing years, I only ate radishes and cabbages every day. I could have grown to two meters, but due to malnutrition, my height stopped at 1.9 meters."
Huo Xiang, who is 1.78 meters tall: Listen, is this human language?
"Haha, just kidding, that's all in the past. Actually, I have a mild case of insomnia, and the doctor also recommended a diet therapy..."
After Li Guixun finished speaking, he quickly picked up a piece of food and stuffed it into his mouth to hide his guilty conscience.
Huo Xiang had no doubt that nine out of ten CEOs had stomach problems, eight smelled like tobacco, seven could not accept anyone other than the heroine, six had mysophobia, five suffered from insomnia, and three were disabled.
Anyone who has read the novel about a domineering boss will understand.
"Mr. Li, excuse me, how do you treat me..."
Huo Xiang thought about it and decided to ask clearly.
Li Guixun put down his chopsticks, took a deep breath, looked at Huo Xiang and said, "Yes, I like you."
Huo Xiang asked: "Will you restrict my personal freedom?"
Li Guixun was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect him to ask this.
But he suddenly understood Huo Xiang's concerns.
It's normal for others to misunderstand that he has bad intentions since he was in such a hurry to bring the person here.
So he quickly stated: "Of course not. I am indeed not a good person, and I have registered with Uncle Hat. But you don't have to doubt my feelings for you. If you are willing to stay, let's sign a formal employment agreement and you will be my employee.
No matter what happens in the future, you can always do whatever you want with me. No one can force you to do something you don't want to do, including myself.
Of course I also have selfish motives. After all, the one who is close to the water gets the moon first. Of course it would be best if one day you could really see my good side and be willing to accept me. If it really doesn't work, then... I've been in front of you for so long, you shouldn't fall in love with someone worse than me, and I will admit defeat with a sincere heart in the future.
You don't have to feel any psychological burden. Although I am the one who initiated everything, I don't suffer any loss. How many people don't even have this opportunity in their lifetime? I am content to be able to be with you day and night and leave these beautiful memories.
If you are worried about safety, I will take you to Uncle Hat to file a case later. If you have any problems with me, I will be the first suspect. In addition, as you can see in my house, one-button alarm devices are everywhere. If you still feel uneasy, I..."
"No, you don't have to do that. I didn't mean that." Huo Xiang said quickly.
Li Guixun's words can be said to be from the bottom of his heart. Although Huo Xiang, who had just escaped from a terrible relationship experience, was not at all moved, he could feel his sincerity.
