The voice was so lovely that Su Jiu was amused.
Where did he find such a talking parrot?
It’s amazing that he could find it!
As Su Jiu thought about it, Rong Si took out a bright red rose from nowhere and handed it to her. The look he gave her was deep and indulgent. “Do you like this gift?”
“Yes…” Su Jiu nodded.
Her nose stung. She was so moved she could have cried.
He must have gone to a lot of trouble to prepare all this for me, right?
Not only had Rong Si traveled all the way back here, but he had even prepared such a gift for her…
Rong Si saw that Su Jiu’s eyes were red. He raised a hand and wiped the tears from her eyes with his warm fingers. “Why are you crying? The purpose of preparing a gift for you is not to make you cry.”
“I know, but I’m crying because I’m touched, not because I’m sad.” Su Jiu took a step forward and hugged him, burying her face in his chest. “Rong Si, thank you!”
“What are you thanking me for?”
Su Jiu looked up and sniffed. “Thank you for being my boyfriend, of course!”
Rong Si laughed and let her go a little, her fair, delicate face reflected in his dark eyes. “If you really want to thank me, why don’t you show it through your actions, huh?”
Actions?
Fine!
Su Jiu sniffed hard again.
Then, as Rong Si expectantly watched, she wrapped her arms around him, stood on tiptoe, and without hesitation, kissed him on the lips.
She was strong. Rong Si stumbled back a step before steadying himself.
Then, he enjoyed the beauty of the moment…
Their breaths mingled and wove, and their lips began to slip.
The fireworks were still going strong nearby. Pigeons were still flying everywhere. Together with the two of them, who were kissing sweetly, all this made a beautiful picture.
When Su Jiu panted, Rong Si let go of her. Suddenly, he heard Su Jiu’s depressed cry. “Ahhh! Oh my God! Rong Si, what kind of lousy pigeon did you find to shit on my head?”
Su Jiu wanted to cry. “How annoying! This means that I’ll be very unlucky in the future!”
Rong Si winced. “Idiot. You believe such talk?”
“That’s what I said.” Su Jiu pouted, looking resentful.
She had barely finished speaking when the hit-and-run pigeon actually landed next to her, cooing at her.
What the…
How could a bird be so arrogant?!
Who has given it such courage to provoke humans? Doesn’t it know how terrifying humans are?
Su Jiu wanted to grab it and teach it a lesson, but Rong Si had already grabbed it and said seriously, “In that case, I’ll kill it now to avenge you.”
“Coo-ee…” The pigeon flapped its little wings and struggled.
Seeing how cute it was, Su Jiu suddenly couldn’t bear to make it pay. She pursed her lips unhappily. “Forget it, forget it! It didn’t mean to. Let it go. I just want to wash my hair!”
Rong Si laughed and released the pigeon. “Alright. I’ll help you.”

Su Jiu rushed home and entered the bathroom immediately.
Rong Si followed her in. He picked up the showerhead and carefully rinsed the shampoo on Su Jiu’s hair.
As far as Su Jiu could remember, this was the first time a man other than her father had washed her hair… She felt a little uncomfortable as her heart thumped in her chest.
