Over one hour later, when it was just daybreak, Zhang Tie pushed the dining cart back to his room. Before he entered the door, he had already heard faint sobbing from inside. Not until he opened the door did the sobbing stop.
Sitting on the bed, Bai Suxian hugged her pillow with tears. She turned around with a dumbfounded look as she watched Zhang Tie who was pushing the dining cart into the room.
Zhang Tie glanced around the room out of curiosity and found nobody else. Everything was as same as when he left.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Tie asked Bai Suxian with an amazed look.
"I … I thought you knew about my past … You despised me and left … You don't want me anymore!" Bai Suxian said in embarrassment.
"What are you thinking about?" Zhang Tie replied with a smile, "I just got up a bit early today. When I remembered that you've not eaten my food, I went to make a breakfast for you. When I came to the kitchen, the servants in the manor had just got up. I made this breakfast myself. Of course, it could not match the chefs in the manor..."
As Zhang Tie said this, he pushed the dining cart to the bedside and opened the covers of the dining cart. The breakfast that he made for Bai Suxian was a bowl of fragrant noodles, pancakes and a glass of juice. Although there were not many things, Zhang Tie made each of them very meticulously.
Bai Suxian watched Zhang Tie as tears dropped off her face once again. She had not imagined that this man could get up early and make a breakfast for her for the first time when she thought that he didn't like her past. His thoughtfulness moved her so much. "You're so nice!"
"If a man doesn't make his wife his mistress, it means that he's vulgar and incompetent!" Zhang Tie blinked his eyes.
Bai Suxian burst out into laughter at once.
...
In Bai Suxian's eyes, the breakfast that Zhang Tie made for her today was almost the most delicious food that she had ever eaten. It was even better than any other delicacy in the world, although Zhang Tie's breakfast was shabby compared to those of the chefs in the manor.
Bai Suxian almost sprung up from the bed at the fastest speed. After putting on her nightdress, she quickly washed her face and rinsed her face. After that, she casually tied up her hair and started to enjoy the breakfast that Zhang Tie prepared for her on the balcony with a brilliant look.
"You come and eat too!"
"No, I've already eaten. These are specially prepared for you!"
After tasting the fragrant golden cake, Bai Suxian exclaimed at once, "Ahh, it's so tasty. How did you make it?"
"Yes, my mom taught me. Buckwheat noodles are cooked with eggs and sugar, then baked with sesame oil! My mom cooks better than me! "
"Do you really not mind my past?" Bai Suxian asked Zhang Tie with a guilty look.
"Do you know anything about my past?"
"I saw it on the Mountain of Radiance!"
"I'll tell you a story. Actually, when I entered Blackhot City to study, I had started to fall in love with a girl. I've been in love with her for a long time..." Zhang Tie slowly told her about his love for Miss Daina in a melancholy and reminiscing tone.
As Bai Suxian slowly ate her breakfast, she listened to the story of Miss Daina and Zhang Tie very attentively.
Zhang Tie told her that he would always follow Miss Daina far away after leaving school each day...
Zhang Tie told her that when Miss Daina was waiting for the bus at the station, he would hide in the alley behind the station in order to watch Miss Daina's back...
Zhang Tie also told them how Fatty Barley and the other guys had a fight in the classroom and how he had provoked Barley and the other guys. Finally, they had turned from enemies to friends.
These stories were like myths for Bai Suxian. However, these myths were so real and interesting.
"Wait... you mean there was a boy who hid in the classroom and played... played airplanes in the middle school!" As an experienced person, of course, Bai Suxian understood what Zhang Tie meant. However, as a princess of Taixia Country, the experience and life of such a miserable youth in the border of Waii Sub-continent was too unimaginable for her.
"Not one, but a row. Can you imagine? Standing in a row by the window, they played airplanes together. They didn't need to hide. Finally, they competed to see who could eject farther. The loser might be punished!" Zhang Tie said with a solemn look.
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, Bai Suxian blushed.
"Then... then did you play airplanes?" Bai Suxian asked Zhang Tie in a low voice with a blush.
Zhang Tie let out a sigh, "According to the teachings of Hua people, teenagers who played airplanes would have poor health, bad luck and memory. Additionally, they would grow uglier and look extremely obscene. As a result, everything would go wrong. I was already a miserable youth at that time. I almost had nothing. I was not handsome, strong and unlucky. I tried my best to stand among my peers who were taller and stronger than me. Even though I wanted to play airplanes, I didn't have the capital to squander it!"
Bai Suxian was amused by Zhang Tie's words once again.
When Zhang Tie told her that he plucked up his courage to find Ms. Anna for the first time and found that he had a "physiological obstacle", Bai Suxian couldn't stand spurting a mouthful of noodles onto Zhang Tie's body...
After hearing Zhang Tie's story and eating the breakfast cooked by Zhang Tie, the knot and haze in Bai Suxian's mind completely disappeared. At the same time, her face turned brilliant once again.
Zhang Tie knew that Bai Suxian had completely passed the hurdle in her mind. The breakfast that Zhang Tie made for Bai Suxian was also eaten up by Bai Suxian who always paid attention to her feminine image, except for the mouthful of noodles that she spurted onto Zhang Tie's body.
Zhang Tie kept talking about how Miss Daina ended all his fantasies in Huaiyuan Prefecture with a light kiss and how he saw Miss Daina find her own home...
"I want you to know that each one has his own past. Nobody is perfect. I'm very happy and cherished to meet you. If the past can't become a good memory, just take it as a lesson. Just take it as being bitten by a mad dog and almost getting rabies. If you care about it too much, it means that you acquiesce the one who once hurt you to hurt you for the second time!" Zhang Tie made a conclusion in a solemn and earnest way.
Bai Suxian nodded forcefully as she didn't look frustrated or weak at all, "I see!"
"Let's take a look in another place today. It's said that the Treasures Meeting in Gold and Power Market is very boisterous. As it has already started for 2 days, let's take a look over there!" Zhang Tie told Bai Suxian casually.
"Fine, fine, I will change a set of clothes right now. After that, we will go to Gold and Power Market..." Bai Suxian who recovered her vitality instantly became spirited. After throwing a glance at Zhang Tie's clothes, she became a bit bashful, "Your clothes..."
"It doesn't matter. When you go to prepare for it, I will also prepare for it. I will change a set of clothes..."
"Do you really not mind my past?" Bai Suxian suddenly asked Zhang Tie seriously.
Zhang Tie knew that women were always like this. When you didn't speak, she would worry that you would mind it. However, when you said that you wanted to forget it, she would worry that you really didn't mind it. Sometimes, women's thoughts were very troublesome. In women's minds, if a man didn't mind it at all, it meant that he didn't really love this woman.
If Zhang Tie was a rash young man, he would definitely fall into the pit; however, Zhang Tie was a seasoned warrior. How could he fail at this moment?
Zhang Tie pretended to be furious as he threw a glare at Bai Suxian. Closely after that, he grabbed Bai Suxian. With Bai Suxian's exclamation, Zhang Tie stretched out his hand and slapped her plump buttocks twice, "Hurry up, prepare for it. Don't mention it in front of me anymore. If I see you flirting with another man again, I will break your legs and lock you up with an iron chain!"
After slapping her buttocks for a few times, Bai Suxian became obedient at once. Instead of being angry, she revealed a tender smile as she replied in a low voice, "I see, master..."
"Since you know, why aren't you going?"
With another "pah", Bai Suxian slapped her buttocks again.
With a series of silvery laughter, Bai Suxian directly floated off the balcony and landed on the lawn of the garden outside the balcony. Closely after that, she ran towards her residence cheerfully barefoot.
As for all the people in this manor, they could only pretend that they had not seen their miss running out of Childe Cui's room even without Uncle Zhong's order.
After Bai Suxian left, Zhang Tie revealed a smile as he lowered his head and looked at his dirty clothes. After that, he put on a new set of clothes and left the room.
Based on Zhang Tie's understanding of Bai Suxian, in such a mood and occasion, it would take her at least 2 hours to prepare for taking a bath, doing her hair, choosing clothes and putting on make-up even if someone was serving her on one side.
During this period, Zhang Tie could already do something.
At this moment, the sun had just risen. The garden of the manor was filled with cheerful chirps. Zhang Tie took a walk in the kitchen and took a small basin of wheat. After that, he came to the lawn of the garden and started to feed the birds leisurely.
There were many birds in Xuanyuan Hill, both inside and outside the city. There were many places for feeding birds in the city. Feeding birds in Xuanyuan Hill was a leisure way for people of all ages.
After Zhang Tie scattered the wheat, a flock of sparrows who were chirping and jumping on the treetops of the manor soon flapped their wings and started to peck the wheat cheerfully. After a short while, not only the sparrows in the manor, but also the sparrows in the distance flew over. Hundreds of sparrows were chirping and chasing after the wheat in front of and behind Zhang Tie...
Not only the sparrows, but even a few pigeons flew over in just a few minutes … (To be continued.)
