Chapter 240 Don’t Think of Sleeping
In Xiao Jingyi's yard, the mynah bird raised by Xiao Jinghan kept chirping non-stop, making it impossible for him to fall asleep.
Xiao Jingyi tried various methods, but the bird seemed to be deliberately against him and refused to calm down. Finally, Xiao Jingyi had no choice but to drive it to a tree farther away from the window, and then he reluctantly fell asleep.
However, he had just closed his eyes when he was awakened by a loud noise. It turned out that the little idiot had sneaked into the room at some point and started fighting with the little white cat for some reason. The whole room was in chaos. Xiao Jingyi shouted angrily, "Can you two stop making trouble?" However, they completely ignored his roar and continued to fight.
Xiao Jingyi had no choice but to get up and try to separate them. But the two little animals fought more and more fiercely, even tearing his sleeves. In the end, Xiao Jingyi fell on the bed exhausted and did not sleep all night.
On the other side, Xiao Jinghan and Luo Lingyue's yard was a completely different scene. They both had a good night's sleep.
The next morning, the sun shone through the window onto them, making them look particularly warm. The next morning, the sun was bright and Luo Lingyue opened her eyes and stretched. She turned to Xiao Jinghan, who was standing in the outer room getting dressed, and smiled, "Did you enjoy the show last night?"
Xiao Jinghan raised his eyebrows and replied, "Yeah, I didn't expect that your little idiot and my little coal ball could cooperate so well! This really surprised me!" There was a hint of ridicule in his tone, but more of it was admiration for Luo Lingyue and her pet dog.
Hearing Xiao Jinghan's words, Luo Lingyue couldn't help laughing. Her eyes were curved like two bright crescents. She said, "Haha, who told your little coal ball to be so smart? It's my right-hand assistant! But then again, after such a commotion last night, Liao must have been out of energy now, and it's even more impossible for her to have the energy to follow us. In this way, we can go out and play happily today!" After that, she clapped her hands happily.
Xiao Jinghan looked at Luo Lingyue's cute appearance, and the corners of his mouth could not help but slightly rise, revealing a sly smile. He gently stroked his chin and said, "Since we are going out, let's go and greet our brothers and sisters-in-law first!" There was a cunning light in his eyes, as if hinting at something.
After hearing what Xiao Jinghan said, Luo Lingyue immediately understood his intention. She curled her lips and muttered, "Humph, you are such a bad guy!"
Xiao Jinghan and Luo Lingyue came to Xiao Jingyi's yard in high spirits.
As soon as they entered the yard, they saw Liao sitting there with a tired look on her face and two big dark circles under her eyes. Xiao Jingyi, who was standing next to her, also looked haggard and looked at the servants around him with a sullen face.
At this time, Liao was cursing the servants and maids, blaming them for not keeping a close eye on the gate and causing her to stay awake all night.
When Xiao Jingyi saw Xiao Jinghan and Luo Lingyue coming, he immediately shouted to the servants: "All of you go down!"
Xiao Jinghan walked quickly to Xiao Jingyi and asked with concern: "Brother! What's wrong with you? Why are you so haggard? Didn't you get enough rest last night?"
Xiao Jingyi's face was gloomy, and he replied helplessly: "Put your mynah bird back into the cage! The bird was calling in my yard all night last night! I couldn't fall asleep at all!"
Xiao Jinghan shouted in the direction of the big tree: "Little Coal Ball!"
Hearing the sound, the mynah bird immediately flew down from the tree and landed steadily on his shoulder.
Xiao Jingyi looked at the interaction between Xiao Jinghan and the mynah bird, and frowned slightly: "Its...name is Little Coal Ball?"
Xiao Jinghan nodded and smiled: "Yes! Look at its black feathers, isn't it just like a little coal ball? However, if you think this name is not nice, you can help it choose a new one!"
Xiao Jingyi waved his hand, indicating that it was not necessary: "No need! I was just a little surprised. I didn't expect you to name a bird Little Coal Ball."
Xiao Jinghan gently stroked the mynah bird's head and explained, "I think this name is very cute! And it seems to like it very much. Every time I call Little Coal Ball, it will immediately fly over to find me."
Xiao Jingyi smiled and said, "It seems like you two get along very well!"
Xiao Jinghan nodded: "Yes! Little Coal Ball is very smart and obedient. It has also learned a lot of words!"
As he spoke, he gently patted the mynah bird's wings, signaling it to speak.
As expected, the mynah bird opened its mouth and made a clear sound: "Hello, Your Majesty!"
Xiao Jingyi's mouth twitched: "It can actually say so many words! It's really interesting."
Xiao Jinghan laughed proudly: "Haha, that's right! Little Coal Ball is my baby, and he chats with me every day to relieve my boredom."
At this moment, a clear voice rang out: "Little idiot! Why are you here? Did you not sleep all night? Look at the dark circles under your eyes! Oh! How pitiful!"
Liao was so angry that she gnashed her teeth, always feeling that Luo Lingyue was alluding to her! She wanted to rush over immediately and skin Luo Lingyue and this abominable puppy!
However, Luo Lingyue seemed not to notice Liao's anger, and still walked up to Liao with the puppy in her arms, smiling.
While teasing the puppy, she said to Liao: "Sister-in-law! Let's go listen to music together!"
Liao secretly hated it in her heart, but she still managed to force a smile on her face and replied, "No, I didn't sleep well last night, and now I just want to have a good rest. You guys go play!"
Luo Lingyue lowered her head and continued to stroke the puppy in her arms, laughing softly: "In that case, sister-in-law, just have a good rest!"
Liao suppressed her anger and turned to the servant beside her and ordered: "Take the prince and princess out of the palace to listen to the music and serve them well!"
Xiao Jinghan and Luo Lingyue looked at each other, then walked out of the room together.
After the two left, Liao's face suddenly became extremely gloomy.
She glared at Luo Lingyue's departing back fiercely, with a resentful gleam in her eyes.
Liao said angrily: "This Luo Lingyue, what a crappy name for a dog! Little idiot! It sounds like she is scolding me! Damn it!"
Xiao Jingyi said tiredly: "Okay! Let's go catch up on some sleep! We haven't slept all night!"
Luo Lingyue and Xiao Jinghan left the palace in a carriage. Luo Lingyue asked Xiao Jinghan curiously, "Your Majesty, why did Xiao Jingyi react so strangely when he heard the name "Little Coal Ball" just now? Does this name have any special meaning?"
Xiao Jinghan looked at Luo Lingyue, his lips slightly raised, and then replied: "Actually there is no special reason. When my father picked up Xiao Jingyi, he was just a beggar who was dying of illness, and his skin was dark all over. The servants and maids who took care of him at the time gave him a nickname called "Little Coal Ball" because they thought he looked like a piece of black charcoal. So when he heard this name again, he might think of his past experiences."
After listening to Xiao Jinghan's explanation, Luo Lingyue's eyes turned cold. She gritted her teeth and said, "What an ungrateful wolf! How dare he treat his savior like this! Prince, don't worry! I will never let them have an easy time today!"
Xiao Jinghan raised his eyebrows and smiled teasingly: "Madam, are you really going to let those two little guys make trouble again? I'm worried that they might be killed by Xiao Jingyi this time! After all, that guy is not easy to mess with."
Luo Lingyue smiled triumphantly, with a cunning light flashing in her eyes: "Don't worry, Your Majesty! I don't plan to let them take risks this time. We can go out for a walk first, and come back later to watch the show! Then you will know how I plan to deal with them!"
