Chapter 26: Canary (2/2)

Does that mean he was close to Old Ape for the past few months under the other person's eyes? What a shame! ! There is also the Old Ape, that fat man with big ears, they obviously exchanged photos and constellations with each other, agreeing to be brothers for a lifetime, actually betrayed his oath!

Han Yichen resisted the shame and anger in his heart, typing and asking: ‘Friend, you still haven’t told me about yourself, don't you think that is appropriate?’

X: ‘Busy.’

Han Yichen: ‘This is not an excuse for you to ignore me.’

X: ‘You can use this time to research the Old Ape’s computer.’

Han Yichen: ”Oh? Is there anything special about his computer?”

‘The virus is complete.’

”…”

‘Another thing that I thought I should let you know, there is an interesting little program in Old Ape’s Computer. When you synchronize with his computer, it means that he is also logging in to your computer.’

Han Yichen was simply going crazy, why did Old Ape have to have so many ideas? Are they even friends anymore? How can he hack into his computer? !

As if comprehending something in the long silence, the person on the other side explained it for him: ‘His little program usually doesn't take the initiative to attack. Maybe he never thought he would meet a friend like you?’

Han Yichen: ‘!!!’

X: ‘Are you free on Saturday? If you have time in the morning, we can meet up.’

Han Yichen wanted to fight, but he suddenly saw a bright red five-pointed star drawn on the desk calendar on Saturday, with the words ”Send my sister to the Children's Palace” written in a big letters beside it. Thinking of his mother's slap from the other day, he typed back without hesitation: ”I happened to have something very important that day, why not choose Sunday instead?”

Xia Ye has a strong memory, he doesn't need to look at the desk calendar to know that that day is Tang Jinyu's performance day-this is the time chosen by the family. This weekend, the little guy will come play a complete piece of music for the whole family to listen to. He tapped his finger on the tabletop, his eyebrows lowered and he replied: ‘Not Sunday, I’m busy.’

When he typed this, he heard the voice of the little guy outside his door, and Xia Ye hurriedly left another message, “I will contact you next time’, and then went offline.

Han Yichen asked a few more questions without getting any response, he frowned for a long time.

He used to have a bit of confidence to be able to compete against X, but now he finds depressed that he can't even guard against Old Ape, and his heart is close to collapsing.

In the living room, Teacher Xia was entertaining his small guest.

He gave Tang Jinyu a bag of ice cream, which was a popular brand called Banana Brothers, two small popsicles were glued together. After Tang Jinyu broke them apart, he walked towards Xia Ye, giving him his other half to eat.

The child raised his hands high, with a look of expectation.

Xia Ye didn't like to eat too sweet things, but when the little guy brought it towards him, he bent down to take a bite. The little guy walked behind him, eating ice cream while following him.

Xia Ye waited for him to finish eating, took him to wash his hands, and asked, “Go for a walk?”

The child stood on the small stool by the sink, nodded happily: ”Go~”

Xia Ye took a towel to wipe his hands clean, and led him downstairs.

Tang Jinyu is now slowly learning to go out.

This is something that both families are trying to take him to do. In fact, Xia Ye feels that the child is not afraid of the outside but the adults at home are a little too nervous. It went from three adults accompanying the little guy for a walk, to him walking the little guy by himself everyday. The child walked around for a while, gradually improving each day.

Xia Ye took him a little farther today, and found some wisteria trees in the small garden up ahead and walked around. There were luxuriant branches and leaves on it, and a thin vine of grapes grew on a stone pillar, there were so many unremarkable bunches of green grapes.

It's not the ripe season for grapes, but the grapes were green and clean, he didn’t need to eat it to know how sour they might be.

Xia Ye held the child and looked at the bunch of grapes in his arms, so he picked a whole bunch of grapes for him, ”You can play with it, but don’t eat them, okay?”

Tang Jinyu nodded in response, his eyes looked down, and began to look at the grapes in his hand.

Xia Ye looked back at the place where they lived, the old house, the clothes hanging on the balcony brought a little color, all the doors and windows were very small, almost like a cage. All the people are birds that live here, but the one in his arms is a little canary, a very delicate one.
