They thought they were about to succeed this time, but Guo Dongyue's mother experienced another breakdown, and all their efforts were in vain. Zhang Zian and Guo Dongyue felt so upset and desperate.

What should they do? Try again from the beginning?

They looked at each other, waiting for someone to come up with a solution. This thing was supposed to be completed by Guo Dongyue, but he couldn't control his feelings when facing his own mother, so he could only hope Zhang Zian could help him out.

Zhang Zian sighed, and felt like he had made a promise that was hard for him to keep. He knew too well that his success moments ago was just sheer luck. Guo Dongyue's anticipation made him suffer with great pressure, and he couldn't bear to decline his request. On the other hand, Guo Dongyue's mother reminded him of his own mother. And if his mother was a victim of Alzheimer's disease, he would have hoped that others could extend their helping hands.

So, he repeated his tricks to see if they would work again. He smiled and said, ”I'm a bird enthusiast...”

”I'm not asking you that.” Guo Dongyue's mother's smile froze and she stood up from the sofa and asked him seriously, ”I'm asking, how did you get into my house? Who opened the door for you? Get out, or I will call the police!”

Zhang Zian thought to himself, ”Why is she reacting differently every time, what should I do?”

”Don't! We are nice people.” He raised both his hands to show that he didn't mean to do anything evil.

”Nice people? What kind of nice people would break into others' apartments?” Guo Dongyue's mother raised her voice, ”Are you leaving or not? I will scream for help!”

Aunt Bai heard the noise and hastily came out from the kitchen to stop her. ”My elder sister-in-law, please don't scream, they are not strangers.”

Guo Dongyue's mother stared at Aunt Bai for a few seconds before she recognized her, ”Yan Zi?”

Aunt Bai smiled bitterly and nodded. ”In this building, only you will call me by that name.”

”Yan Zi, who are they? Your friends?” Guo Dongyue's mother pointed to Zhang Zian and Guo Dongyue. Aunt Bai was not as flexible as Zhang Zian, and she didn't know how to respond. Aunt Bai was planning to tell her that Guo Dongyue was her son and Zhang Zian was his friend, but then again, they would be trapped in an endless circle, where Guo Dongyue's mother would never believe that Guo Dongyue who was in front of her was her own son.

She bit the bullet and said, ”Yes, they're my friends.”

”What do they do? Why are you bringing them into my house?” Guo Dongyue's mother kept asking.

”Well...” Aunt Bai still didn't know how to respond. Seeing that Zhang Zian was pointing to the birdcage, she understood what he meant and said, ”Elder sister-in-law, they're here to see your parrots.”

”My parrots?” Guo Dongyue's mother also noticed the birdcage, and before anyone knew what was happening, she had taken away the birdcage from Guo Dongyue, held it in her arms like her baby, and scolded them severely, ”How dare you steal my parrots? I'm definitely calling the police.”

None of them knew how to respond, all they could do was stand there awkwardly and look at each other... The only option was to wait for her next round of breakdown. But when would that happen? Guo Dongyue's mother probably was too angry, so she fiercely criticized Guo Dongyue and Zhang Zian and cursed them. She really had mistaken them for thieves.

Zhang Zian was the last one who entered the house, and he left the door unlocked. With a creaking sound, the door was pushed open gently, and a golden claw stepped into the house, followed by another claw. Fina came into the house with its poker face, carrying a few pieces of paper in its mouth.

Zhang Zian was surprised to see Fina with paper in its mouth—why on earth would the germophobic Fina do that? Those papers must be the purchasing certificates of the originally-issued stocks of some big companies!

Fina's presence was so eye-catching that even Guo Dongyue's mother stopped her clamor and looked at it surprisingly. After a few seconds, she said, ”Whose cat is that?”

”It's mine, I brought it here,” said Zhang Zian who was winking at Fina, as if asking what Fina was carrying in its mouth.
