Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 203 Lovestruck Polly

Tioga International Airport, South City.

Lilly held up a card with a cartoon flowchart that Blake had hand–drawn for her. It showed a sizable

airplane first, then a truck, a conveyor belt for luggage, and so forth.

Zachary was uninterested as he trailed Lilly. He had his phone in his hand and was engaged in intense

battling in–game. He roared, “Bring it on, you idiot!”

Due to the headphones he was wearing, he was unable to gauge the volume of his own voice. The

passersby turned around and gazed at him in surprise.

Lilly quickly waved her hand and apologized, “I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. My brother is too rude.”

As she said that, she took the bread out of her bag and stuffed it into Zachary’s mouth.

Zachary mumbled, “Hmmm!”

He continued to mumble, but no more offensive words came from his mouth.

Lilly followed the hand–drawn map to collect her luggage and reunite with Polly.

Polly was sent out with pet transportation, where it was in the care of a professional pet carrier.

Polly and another parrot were having a lively conversation, or more accurately, Polly was doing all the

talking.

The other bird was a cockatiel parrot. It looked beautiful with its light yellow feathers and smooth crown

line. It also had two round red spots on its cheeks just below its eyes, which made its cheeks look

pinkish.

“Hello, hi there; did you just wake up?” Polly spread its wings in front of the cockatiel parrot.

That parrot simply ignored Polly.

Lilly said softly, “Polly…”

Polly showed his shining green feathers to the cockatiel parrot again. It said, “Why did you not say

anything? Can’t you talk? Oh my gosh! I must teach you then!”

Lilly was speechless.

Polly continued, “Hey, listen to me; you must have a crush on me. If you don’t…I’ll think of something

else.”

Lilly called out to the parrot again, “Polly…”

Polly shook its feathers, leaned slightly forward, and got closer to the cockatiel parrot’s cage. It said, “I

don’t think you’re the right parrot to date, hmm… but you’re the right parrot to marry me.”

The Cockatiel Parrot finally lost it, and it shouted, “I’m a male! You idiot! Moron!”

Polly was astounded. It turned to face Lilly right away and said, “Let’s go. Quick, we have to leave

now.” Lilly was wordless.

The airport employees who were standing nearby were holding their laughter in until they finally lost

control and started laughing out loud.

Lilly was so embarrassed. She quickly grabbed Polly’s cage, strided forward, and hurriedly fled from

the

scene.

Polly once again delivered an extended statement in gibberish once they were outside the airport

terminal.

Lilly had a “you won” expression on her face. She asked solemnly, “Polly, did you learn all these from

Hannah?”

Polly shook its head and said, “I couldn’t tell you!”

The cage was fastened to the suitcase by Lilly. She then followed the road signs outside while pulling

the suitcase with one hand while holding the fruit and unfinished cake in the other.

Zachary continued to play games with earphones on and casually followed her from behind.

The kids completely overlooked the few secret agents who pretended to be “ordinary people” in the

crowd. All of them wore eyeglasses with tiny cameras on them.

Blake set up four computers in the Crawford Mansion, each receiving real–time surveillance footage

from the front line.

Hugh sat with a newspaper in his hands and a somber expression on his face, but he was secretly

sneaking glances at Blake’s computer. He asked with a long face, “We’ve agreed that we will let her be

independent. Why are we doing all this behind her back?”

Blake said, without even bothering to raise his head, “Dad, I’ll believe you if you try a little harder to

hide that you’re peeking at the computer.”

Hugh was taken aback.

Blake continued, “Furthermore, I’m monitoring a spy with my camera. I didn’t send someone

specifically to film Lilly.”

Hugh let out a cold sneer, and he said, “I’ll believe you if the focus of your lens shifts just a little bit

more to the side.”

Hugh was pushed to the side by Bettany, who yelled, “Move! I want to watch the screen if you don’t

want

1. to.

Hugh was rendered silent. He lost in the end.

Bettany saw that Lilly was carrying the luggage and walked in front; Zachary trailed empty–handed and

preoccupied with video games. She could not bear to watch this scene. She chided angrily, “My

goodness! I should’ve beaten him more severely the other day! How could he allow the younger sibling

to carry the luggage?”

Blake narrowed his eyes and stared at Zachary in the footage.

This boy actually has the nerve to boss around my daughter.

Blake took out his phone.

Zachary was ecstatic as he was ready to destroy the rival’s crystal. Suddenly, his phone went black.

Zachary looked puzzled, and he became furious. He cried out, “Damn it!”

Why on earth does the internet need to go down now? God, are you screwing me?

Lilly hailed a cab. She stood on tiptoe and asked, “Mister, how much would it cost to take me to the

Cherry Inn near Middletown University?”

The cabbie had to stretch his neck to see Lilly. When he turned to look, he saw only two children and

no adults. He shifted his gaze and replied, “500 bucks.”

Lilly was taken aback. She suspected the driver was trying to scam her. The little one fell into a

dilemma, and she asked, “Uncle, can we do with fifty bucks? I don’t have a lot of money.”

The cabbie was astounded.

No, let’s put aside whether I’m trying to scam her; this kid is a great negotiator and tried to reduce the

price from 500 to fifty bucks in one go.

“Alright, never mind; I’ll take you there for 250 bucks. I’m not profiting off of you!” said the cab driver.

Lilly paused briefly. She had a serious expression on her adorable face. She said, “Mister, you can ask

for 250 dollars for a ride, but I couldn’t pay that, alright? Daddy said that hardworking people should not

be deprived of their earnings, so we couldn’t take away your money. We won’t ride with you; goodbye!”

The more he listened, the more the driver sensed something was not right. He grumbled, “Hey, it’s fine

if you don’t want to ride. Why are you subtly insulting me?”

Lilly shook her head. She looked at him seriously and warned him sternly, “Mister, don’t drive at night,

all right? If you do it too often, you’ll run into ghosts while driving at night.”

Lilly told the truth when she said the driver might run into ghosts. However, the driver interpreted it

differently.

Is this kid cursing me?

He glared at Lilly and asked, “What are you implying?”

Lilly walked on while dragging her suitcase without saying a word.

Hmph, he tried to con me out of my pocket money, but I wasn’t going to let him! He can scam Polly out

of its money, but I wouldn’t allow him to get a single dime from me.

The driver was upset after being lectured by a child. This was intolerable to him. The driver unlocked

the car door, intending to teach Lilly a lesson.

A tall, strong man kicked it shut before the door had even gotten halfway open. He looked ferociously

at the driver while casually resting his fist on the window. He terrified the driver. The driver dared not

make a sound and retracted his neck in fear.

Lilly kept moving forward with her suitcase.

The cab naturally stopped by the side of the road. Lilly peeked at the cab and asked, “Mister, How

much will it cost to take me to the Cherry Inn near Middletown University?”

The driver replied gruffly, “We use the meter, so I’ll charge whatever it shows. Typically, it won’t cost

more

than a hundred dollars.”

Lilly’s eyes

lit

up

when she heard this.

Yes, that’s right, I need to find someone who uses the meter. Daddy said that when I need to take a

cab, I should ride a legitimate cab, the one that uses the meter..

When Lilly opened the car door, she noticed the driver had gotten out of the car and helped her put the

suitcase in the trunk.

Lilly’s eyes curled as she smiled sweetly. She said, “Mister, you’re so nice! I just read your aura. It

appears that you’ll be very fortunate. You would get promoted, gain wealth, and find yourself a wife!”

The driver was overwhelmed with the wishes.

Hehe, Chief MacNeil’s daughter is quite a talker!
