TGLC Chapter 45.2

Her grandmother was already unpopular, and now, because of a parrot causing trouble, Zhuzhu disliked them even more.

As she spoke, she pulled her mother upstairs, her gaze toward Du Qinrong wary and vigilant.

Du Qinrong looked at Zhuzhu, who wasn’t very welcoming to them, with a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

She originally wanted to bring a talking parrot to cheer up Zhuzhu, but now, her plan has backfired.

“Mommy, let’s go!”

Seeing that her mother wasn’t moving, Zhuzhu tugged at her hand and urged her on.

Xie Qingyu said goodbye to Du Qinrong: “Aunt Du, we’re going upstairs now.”

Du Qinrong glanced at the two big dogs beside her, but Zhuzhu didn’t even give them a look, clearly not very interested.

She was a little disappointed.

But she knew that haste makes waste.

She waved her hand and said, “Alright, alright, you go upstairs first. We’ll visit Zhuzhu another day.”

“…Okay.”

Back home, the little girl was still a bit angry, cursing the stinky parrot as she walked toward her room.

Xie Qingyu thought for a moment, then sent a message to Duan Zihui: [Why didn’t you say your parents were coming?]

Half an hour later, Duan Zihui replied with a question mark.

Then, after he asked, he learned that his parents had actually moved to the apartment above Xie Qingyu’s.

Xie Qingyu also said: [They moved upstairs to our apartment.]

Duan Zihui himself was unaware of the matter and apologized somewhat apologetically: [They didn’t tell me about this. I’m sorry I didn’t communicate beforehand.]

Xie Qingyu sent a speechless ellipsis.

Duan Zihui then sent another message: [I’ll handle this. I’ll try my best to keep them from bothering you.]

Xie Qingyu thought Duan Zihui was talking nonsense: [Not bothering us? Can you call them back or prevent them from seeing Zhuzhu?]

Duan Zihui remained silent.

He couldn’t control any of this. His parents wanted to see their granddaughter, and he couldn’t stop them.

He said somewhat hesitantly: [I’ll go back in a couple of days. I’ll talk to them then, and I’ll handle it.]

Xie Qingyu stopped replying to him.

She knew that Duan Zihui couldn’t do anything about his parents.

She couldn’t do anything about it either, so… she’d just leave it to fate.

Whatever.

After returning home, it was as if they had erected a barrier between themselves and the outside world, and everything became peaceful.

The afternoon’s farce was quickly forgotten by Zhuzhu.

However, the next day, as soon as Little Zhuzhu stepped out into the living room, she was disturbed by the noise of the parrots upstairs.

“Zhuzhu, you’re such a pretty little thing! How can there be such a cute little thing like you in this world?”

“Zhuzhu, you are such a smart little girl.”

“Zhuzhu, you’re such a silly little thing…”

…

Zhuzhu immediately went to the balcony and looked up.

She couldn’t see the parrot’s figure clearly, but she could hear its voice very clearly.

She rushed to her room to find her mother and said in a pitiful voice, “Mom, that annoying parrot is talking about me upstairs. It’s so annoying!”

Xie Qingyu was looking at her phone when she was woken up by its vibration. It was already quite late, around 8:30, almost 9:00.

Several residents from the floors above and below her had sent her messages, asking if she had a parrot at home and why it kept calling for Zhuzhu.

Xie Qingyu was a little annoyed, but she still had to explain that there was no problem. She said that the parrot upstairs had encountered Zhuzhu yesterday, so it kept calling her name.

Feeling somewhat annoyed, Xie Qingyu took a screenshot and sent it to Duan Zihui, then got up to wash up.

After washing up, she changed Zhuzhu into a blue and pink dress, tied her hair into a bun, and then planned to take her out.

Unexpectedly, she saw Du Qinrong walking her dog downstairs.

Today she wore a khaki top with red stripes, a khaki long skirt, and pearl earrings, making her look young and stylish.

She was chatting with several middle-aged women in the neighborhood who were also walking their dogs.
