    The little bird was grayish-ck, looking somewhat like a shaved wild junglefowl, weird and ugly.


    About the size of a palm, it had arge head and a small body. It couldn’t even stand up andy sprawling on the windowsill with its tiny wings, looking so fragile that a gust of wind could seemingly blow it over multiple times.


    Purple Summers felt sorry for it and picked it up, cradling it in her palm.


    “A bird this small can hardly survive without its mother. I’ll go to the garden to look for its nest and put it back if I can find one,” she said.


    Atra nc was also overflowing with sympathy, “Poor little thing, it must be starving. Let’s give it some water first.”


    The two gave the bird some water, then found a temporary lunchbox, lined it with cotton cloth, and ced the bird inside.


    Alexander Summers was watching snakes in the living room. When Atra nc saw him, she said, “Alexander, go with your sister to the garden to look for the bird’s nest. There’s a fledgling on her windowsill that can’t fly yet. It might have been brought in by a wild cat, poor thing.”


    Purple Summers had no objections.


    First, Alexander had helped her confront Jade Carlson today.


    Second, Alexander had not been a pervert today.


    Third, if they really found the nest, having a man help with climbing trees would be more convenient.


    In summary, Purple Summers and Alexander Summers went out together.


    The Summers Family’s garden was huge, with an artificialke and a grove that often attracted birds to build nests.


    But it was already past their breeding season, and birds only build nests during their breeding periods, living without a fixed domicile at other times.


    Purple Summers found two abandoned empty nests and felt a bit discouraged.


    As they approached thekeside, Purple Summers saw two affectionate couple birds in the lotus leaves and had a thought.


    “Could it be a baby affectionate couple?” Purple Summers mumbled, looking down at the fledgling in the lunchbox.


    She didn’t know much about birds, and couldn’t identify the species from the featherless fledgling.


    However, since the Summers family kept affectionate couple birds, artificial nests had been ced in theke’s trees. It was very possible that the fledgling hade from one of the artificial nests.


    Purple Summers walked towards the artificial nests with the lunchbox, whispering softly, “Grow up quickly, little affectionate couple, so that you can find your other half and be together forever, growing old side by side…”


    Affectionate couple birds symbolized eternal love.


    Alexander, who was beside her, listened and chuckled quietly.


    Purple Summers straightened her face and asked him, “What are youughing at?”


    “Laughing at you, silly sister.” Alexander raised his hand to ruffle her hair, “Affectionate couple birds are only temporary partners, they don’t really grow old together. Once the breeding period is over, the male finds a new wife, and the female a new husband, changing partners every year. Even within the breeding period, the male affectionate couple might fool around.”


    He hinted at the vi in front of them andughed, “It’s just like Nathaniel Summers, who couldn’t stay put even after getting married. Describing him as a male affectionate couple is quite fitting – he seems to be devoted, but actually… heh.”


    Alexander enjoyed badmouthing Nathaniel in front of her, even though it was rather childish.


    Purple Summers frowned, feeling upset whenever Nathaniel was mentioned.


    It was like a straight-A student who failed a test once, only to be reminded of it over and over again – it hurt!


    Never mind, let’s not think about it! Who hasn’t had a few jerks in their life?


    Purple Summersforted herself.


    Alexander went on, “Moreover, affectionate couple birds have webbed feet. Look at its ws.”


    Purple Summers carefully examined the bird’s ws, which were thin, long, and clearly separate without any webbing…


    She was unsure, “What should we do then? A bird this small will die without its mother taking care of it.”


    “Just keep it,” Alexander said leisurely, “If you don’t want to, you can give it to me.”


    Purple Summers looked at him suspiciously, “Can you raise a bird?”


    Alexander’s smile had a hint of evil energy, “I can’t, but I can feed it to Cleo. Though it’s a bit small and won’t fill her belly, it will do as an appetizer.”


    Purple Summers grabbed the bird and turned to leave!


    She should never have had expectations for someone like Alexander!
