Chapter 408: Chapter 403: Home
Listening to Bi Xia’s words, Xia Shi felt a wave of sadness. Finally, a place where he could live peacefully and call home... Turning his eyes to Bi Xia, Xia Shi hugged Bi Xia, eyes red, not saying a word for a long time. But Bi Xia understood what Xia Shi wanted to express.
Gently patting Xia Shi’s back, Bi Xia softly said, "Everything is over..."
Bi Xiaoyuan stared wide-eyed, unblinking at everything in front of him, "Brother, is this really our home?"
"Yes," Bi Xia smiled, placing Bi Xiaoyuan on the ground, "Do you like it?"
The yard wasn’t big, but it was enough for Bi Xiaoyuan to run freely, roll around, and fly kites. On the left side of the yard, there was a hanging chair. In front of the hanging chair was a small table, and above the hanging chair, a place shaded by vines, a perfect spot to read quietly and stay cool.
Next to the hanging chair, a spacious wooden swing connected to the vines gently swung with the breeze.
Bi Xiaoyuan cautiously climbed onto the swing. Xia Shi was startled and rushed over to pull him back, "You can play after your arm heals, you can’t even sit steadily now!"
Bi Xiaoyuan laughed foolishly, his grin full of excitement.
"Oh, why has our Little Bun turned into a one-armed hero?" A teasing voice sounded. At some point, the door had opened, and Xu Renfei stood at the entrance, smiling at the trio.
Bi Xiaoyuan’s eyes lit up when he saw Xu Renfei. Just as he was about to speak, a lively bark interrupted him, "Woof~"
"Ah!" Bi Xiaoyuan screamed, running toward Bi Xiaohai, who dashed out from under Xu Renfei’s feet, "Bi Xiaohai!"
"Woof~" Bi Xiaohai responded.
"Bi Xiaohai!" Bi Xiaoyuan spread his single arm wide.
Just as man and dog were about to embrace, Bi Xiaohai suddenly changed direction, kicked his back legs, and darted towards Bi Xia, crashing into Bi Xia’s legs. Stumbling, he opened his mouth and bit Bi Xia’s pant leg... oh, the pant leg was too high, he couldn’t reach... He opened his mouth again and bit Bi Xia’s shoelace, rolling on the ground playfully.
Bi Xiaoyuan: ...
Why does this scene and these actions seem so familiar?
Watching Bi Xia being ’stolen’ by Bi Xiaohai, Bi Xiaoyuan finally understood, ha! Bi Xiaohai was competing with him for his brother again!
So, just like before, Bi Xiaoyuan scrunched up his small face, squeezed out tears, sat cross-legged on the ground, and began crying loudly, "Waaah~~~ Bi Xiaohai, you annoying pest! You’re always trying to take my brother!!!"
Bi Xia: ...
Xu Renfei: ...
Xia Shi: ...
Bi Xiaohai glanced at Bi Xiaoyuan, turned his head in another direction, tsk, couldn’t you think of a new trick, idiot.
Bi Xiaoyuan: ...
Everyone had grown accustomed to this scene, which had occurred countless times. Even the soft-hearted Xia Shi learned to ignore it.
Xu Renfei stepped out the door, walked up to Bi Xia, and politely said to Xia Shi, "Auntie, congratulations on being discharged~ Welcome home~"
"Thank you," Xia Shi smiled, "I never expected you to come too. Did A Zhan come?"
"Fourth Brother is handling some matters, he’s on his way," Xu Renfei said.
After chatting with Xu Renfei for a bit, Xia Shi turned her attention back to Bi Xiaoyuan. Xu Renfei frowned looking at Bi Xiaoyuan’s hanging arm, then looked at Bi Xia, "Was it that old woman?"
"Yes, you knew already." Bi Xia squatted down, stroking Bi Xiaohai, calmly saying, "Don’t worry... This won’t end like this..."
"Brother~ Come here~ Look..." Bi Xiaoyuan, sitting on the hanging chair, waved to Bi Xia. Bi Xia chuckled. He was just about to pick up Bi Xiaohai when they heard a horn sound at the door. A Maybach slowly drove into the underground garage. When the garage door opened again, Qin Zhan slowly walked out, his thin lips curving slightly.
As soon as Bi Xiaohai saw Qin Zhan, he ran to Bi Xiaoyuan. Bi Xiaoyuan’s voice called out near his ear, and starry eyes met phoenix eyes. All sounds disappeared, leaving only peace and tenderness.
