Chapter 174 The New Little Guy
The house is not tall, just a two-story villa, similar to the houses on Qingcao Street, only slightly larger.
With a creak, the door was pushed open by Jiang Bian in front.
Jiang Xu looked at the door with some surprise; it was the sound a wooden door that had been used for many years would make. Judging from the sound, he wondered what the wood beneath the black lacquer looked like.
Yet, it was in this very house that the two great-grandfathers lived.
This was quite different from the mysterious Jiang family he had imagined.
"Come in." Jiang Bian pushed open the door and went inside.
He was momentarily stunned when he saw the decorations inside the house, but the moment quickly passed without leaving a trace.
When Jiang Xu entered, he lowered his head slightly because the door frame was a bit low.
Seeing Jiang Bian in front of him take off his shoes and walk directly onto the floor, he followed without hesitation.
"There." Jiang Bian pointed to the door closest to the entrance and looked at Jiang Xu behind him. "The second bookshelf on the right in the study is full of record books."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the second floor: "I'll just walk around. If you find me early, go to the banquet hall in front."
If it's late... you can go back to your accommodations yourselves.
The implication was that they should do as they pleased.
"Thank you." Jiang Xu thanked him as he went upstairs.
However, the male insect did not turn around, but a sneer drifted into his ears.
He looked away, took Fei's hand in return, and led him into the study.
The door still creaked, but the sound was much softer than the main door; you might not even hear it if you weren't paying attention.
The study door faces the full-length window in the room, with light white and gold curtains hanging on both sides of the window.
Right next to the window was a dark brown wooden desk with a stack of books and a rather old computer on it.
Even so, judging from the signs of use, it seems to have been used by insects frequently.
In addition, the bookshelves on both sides of the study are filled with many paper books, yet they are still kept neat and tidy.
Jiang Xu looked at the bookshelf on the right and followed Jiang Bian's pointing.
"..." He instantly understood why Jiang Bian had added that last sentence.
The second bookshelf was densely packed with books, and it was somewhat different from the other bookshelves.
Other bookshelves were neat and tidy, with the names on the spines clearly visible; but in this row, the books were arranged haphazardly by size, and there were even some handwritten pages mixed in, with the spines blurred and only a few books whose names were legible.
And it's not just one cell that's like this; the entire column is like this!
That would take forever.
Jiang Xu glanced at the time on his wrist, handed the insect cub to Fei, and pointed to the stool in front of the desk, saying, "Go and watch over Jiang Yi."
"I'll look for it with you." Fei glanced at the second bookshelf. "Is that alright?"
Why can't we do it?
Jiang Xu took a milk fruit out of his pocket and handed it to him: "Okay."
After that, apart from the little bug leisurely sitting on the desk munching on a milk fruit, the only sound in the study was the turning of pages.
Sunlight streamed in through the French windows, falling on two insects in front of the bookshelf, creating a tranquil and cozy atmosphere.
Both insects had attractive appearances, which seemed to glow under the sunlight.
Jiang Yi had already finished the milk fruit in his hand. He glanced at his two fathers, his round eyes darting around.
Seeing that no insects were paying attention to him, he looked down at the remaining juice on his paws, wondering how to make it disappear.
Soon, he came up with a solution—he raised his little hand to his mouth and stuck out his little tongue to lick his fingers clean one by one until he could no longer taste the milk fruit.
He patted his belly contentedly before turning his gaze to the view outside the window.
Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the ice sculpture building outside the window.
He turned to look at his female and male fathers and found that they hadn't noticed anything. Driven by curiosity, he quickly rolled over, lay on the table, and slowly crawled toward the window.
The entire insect clung to the glass, searching for the source of the sound.
A pure white snow ferret, almost blending into the snow and ice, appeared before him.
The little bug didn't recognize what it was, but that didn't stop it from wanting to play with it.
The windows were tightly shut, not a single crack. He pouted and angrily patted the French windows with his little paws.
The weasel was drawn to his movements and looked at him curiously.
Seeing this, he took even more photos.
Hearing the noise, Jiang Xu looked up and saw the insect cub and the snow weasel outside the window staring at each other through the glass.
"..." Jiang Xu glanced at the little insect that was already half-hanging on the edge of the desk, helplessly closed the book, walked over, picked up the little insect and put it back on the desk.
The ferret outside didn't seem afraid of people at all, still perched on the glass, curiously observing everything inside.
"Father, insect!" Jiang Yi pointed at the ferret outside and shouted, "Catch it, catch it!"
While speaking, its two little paws also opened and closed in coordination.
At this moment, Fei also looked over here.
He exchanged a glance with the weasel outside, who seemed completely unwilling to leave, gazing at everything in the study with such curiosity.
He then walked to the window and pushed open the tightly sealed ventilation window a crack.
In the blink of an eye, the snow weasel that had been outside the glass had crawled inside.
Fei Zheng hurriedly stopped it from approaching Jiang Yi, but it stopped at Jiang Xu's feet, its big round eyes wide open, and it pawed at his trouser leg.
"?" Jiang Xu didn't expect the snow weasel to be so agile, and he didn't expect it to be so smart, even knowing how to please the highest-ranking insect in the room.
He took a step back, looked down at it, and just as he opened his mouth, the little insect beside him spoke first: "Father, catch, catch, insect."
"..." Jiang Xu remained silent and shut his mouth.
To the outsider, it seemed as if the insect cub's words came from his own mouth.
"Pfft—" Fei, who was next to him, couldn't help but laugh out loud. Noticing Jiang Xu's gaze, he hurriedly looked away and tried his best to suppress his laughter.
Jiang Xu sighed inexplicably, reached out and pinched his cheek, then grabbed his chin and turned his head around: "I'm not going to hit you, why are you dodging?"
Moreover, he liked looking at Fei Xiao—the way his eyes seemed to sparkle was very attractive to him.
"I didn't mean to." Fei suppressed a laugh as she looked at Jiang Xu with her eyes crinkling.
Jiang Xu wanted to say something more, but suddenly felt a light but strong force on his legs and wrists, as something was climbing up his body.
"Father, insect, insect." Jiang Yi grabbed Jiang Xu's wrists with both hands and started climbing up. When he saw that Jiang Xu ignored him, he started climbing up on his own.
Seeing that Jiang Xu ignored it, the ferret beside his legs also started to climb up his trouser leg.
