“Go away! Go away! I don’t want to see you anymore! Waa —”
Sitting there, Little Phoenix looked like a human child. Its tears rolled down its cheeks like broken beads, which it kept wiping away with its wings. It was such a heartbreaking thing to see.
Feng Wu felt a phantom headache.
She wouldn’t hesitate to help Little Phoenix if it was asking for anything else. No danger would stop her from going out of her way to help it. But the problem now was that —
“You just won’t help me! You like that little idiot better than me! Go away! Go away! I don’t ever want to talk to you again! Hic —”
Little Phoenix gave a hiccup as it cried.
Just then, there was a knock at the door outside.
Feng Wu said, “… I have to go now.”
Little Phoenix went on crying.
Feng Wu said, “Someone’s looking for me outside and I have to leave you for now. Please don’t cry —”
Little Phoenix was still crying.
And it cried even louder.
When Feng Wu returned to her physical form, her ears were still buzzing, as if her eardrums had been pierced.
Sigh , what should she do with the moody Little Phoenix? Was there no other way apart from kissing Jun Linyuan repeatedly?
Feng Wu opened the door as she rubbed her forehead.
“Miss —” Qiuling let out a sigh of relief when she saw Feng Wu come out.
“Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu, sob —” The beautiful lady fought back her tears when she saw Feng Wu’s face.
“My lady has been worried about you and she didn’t sleep at all last night. Nor did the cub —” Qiuling explained.
Seeing the cub’s round head nodding as it dozed off, its eyes half-closed, Feng Wu was most amused.
The “土” on its forehead was hilarious.
Feng Wu flicked its forehead with her slender fingers. “That ‘土’ really makes it look like a knock-off.”
“Hahahaha —”
Everyone laughed and it felt much more relaxed right away.
Seeing the smiling faces, Granny Zhao laughed with the rest of them. She had always loved Miss Wu for her charisma that could cheer everyone up and settle their minds.
“Granny Zhao, I’m all sticky and sweaty —” Seeing Granny Zhao, Feng Wu took her arm and gently swayed it back and forth.
Granny Zhao poked Feng Wu in the forehead in the same way Feng Wu had done to the cub. “Miss Wu, aren’t you a little too old to do this?”
“I’ll always be a kid when you’re around.” Feng Wu raised her chin.
Granny Zhao smiled wholeheartedly.
No other mistress would hold their old maid’s arm and talk to them that way. They were too proud to do that, unlike her Miss Wu, who gave them the feeling that she genuinely needed them.
However, Granny Zhao still straightened her face and made an effort to tell Feng Wu off. “Miss Wu, young ladies should always maintain a proper posture. You must walk gracefully, show no teeth when you smile, and when you speak…”
“Gosh, Granny Zhao ~” Holding Granny Zhao’s arm, Feng Wu said, “I’m really, really sweaty. Feel it yourself, how sticky my arms are. And if it gets windy —”
“If it gets windy, you’ll catch a cold easily! Oh, no! Qiuling, get the bath ready —” That successfully distracted Granny Zhao and she went to run Feng Wu a bath right away.
