With bandaged hands, she held the Iris Sparrow up to Lu Li, awaiting praise.
"Meow~"
Lu Li's black cat eyes reflected the tilted head of the Iris Sparrow.
Claire was placed into the exquisite birdcage brought by the Lizard Maid, with grains and fresh water in the feed trough. Claire only pretended to drink a few sips of water — she was still yearning for the pastries on the terrace table.
"Be good and wait for me to return."
The Head Maid put down Lu Li, placed the birdcage on the dressing table, and left the room with the Lizard Maid.
Click—
The bedroom door closed, footsteps gradually faded away.
"Let me out."
Claire pressed against the side of the cage, wings grasping the bars, calling out.
Lu Li leaped onto the dressing table, his cat tail deftly opening the birdcage.
Claire impatiently flew out of the cage, landing by the terrace door, urging Lu Li to open it.
Click.
The terrace door opened, and Claire squeezed through the gap and landed on the terrace table.
