Before the other party could answer, Jiujiu hummed a little song.

His singing was soft and slow, with a bit of nostalgia and full of grievances.

One song is over.

On the other end of the phone, Tanzhou's voice didn't ring as expected, but a frivolous male voice came: "Are you the new dried fish from Tanzhou?"

Dried fish?

Jiujiu shook his head secretly: "I'm not Xiaoyugan, I'm Jiujiu."

"You sing very well." After the man had finished his compliment, he asked again, "Are you looking for Tanzhou?"

"Yeah!" Jiujiu nodded vigorously.

"He? He was taken away by the beautiful sister." The man deliberately teased him.

"Hmm..." Jiujiu pondered for a moment, "Impossible."

"Oh?" The man raised his eyebrows, and the smile in his words deepened. He was about to speak, but was interrupted by Jiujiu.

"Uncle." Jiujiu called him, "Did you steal Mr.'s phone?"

Just like when he first arrived, his mobile phone was snatched by evil spirits.

The man seemed to be choked by his words, and he didn't reply for a long time.

Until the noisy background sound suddenly mixed with a familiar voice - "Give me back the phone."

Tanzhou doesn't like to speak loudly, even if he is angry, he will argue with others in an orderly manner, but he is a bit different today, he can feel his irritability through the phone and tweets.

After a strange noise, the phone finally returned to Tanzhou.

Seeing the incoming call, his expression instantly softened a lot, and he approached the microphone and said softly, "Why are you calling me all of a sudden?"

"Can't sleep." Jiujiu pursed his lips, "I miss you sir."

Jiujiu said this so directly that even Tanzhou didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Sir, what are you doing?" Jiujiu asked proactively after hearing that he was silent.

"Eat." Tanzhou gritted his teeth and replied.

"Eat so late?" Jiujiu looked at the small wall clock not far away with some doubts.

"Yeah." Tanzhou said concisely, as if he didn't want to talk about eating, he just changed the subject and said, "Did you read the things I taught you?"

Jiujiu suddenly felt a little dizzy when he thought of the book he had stuffed under the bed.

It's not that he doesn't want to learn, it's just that he can't understand any of the words on it, what's more, the person above has to sit cross-legged. He's a mermaid with a fat and short tail, so he can't even make a circle!

"I read it a bit, but I don't understand." Jiujiu said with a guilty conscience.

"Let Ada teach you tomorrow." Tanzhou paused, and coaxed softly, "It's very late now, I have to go to bed."

"Sir, I have insomnia." Jiujiu said bluntly.

"Fish also suffer from insomnia?" Tanzhou laughed at him.

"Of course!" Jiujiu nodded, "Can you sing for me, sir?"

Tanzhou looked around at the bustling night market, hesitant.

"I can't sing well."

"……is it not OK?"

"wait."

After finishing speaking, Tanzhou covered the receiver with his hands, and turned into a deserted alley nearby.

Tanzhou can't sing, and the only melody I remember in my head is the nursery rhyme I learned in elementary school.At that time, there was a music test, and his tone deafness was remembered as a joke by the whole class for a long time.Now his voice is low, but singing has a different taste.

Jiujiu had never heard this nursery rhyme before, so naturally he couldn't hear Tanzhou's out-of-tune, only vaguely heard his gentle singing voice and soft melody, and gradually felt drowsy.

"Sir, I'm going to bed." Jiujiu said obediently after hearing him finish singing, "You should come back early."

"I will, good night." Tanzhou raised the corners of his lips, and he waited for a busy tone from the receiver before putting down the phone.

Outside the alley is a noisy food stall street.

As soon as Tanzhou walked out, he heard a man not far away teasing: "I didn't expect that the person who just had a stomachache just now will be singing to others in a blink of an eye."

Esprit was sitting next to him. At this moment, she was wearing a baseball bat and full-body sportswear, which looked inconspicuous.Hearing the man's words, she couldn't help but turned her head away, not daring to look directly at Tanzhou.

Just an hour ago, they ate the famous local mushroom pot together.

I didn't want to eat half of it, but Tanzhou felt sick to his stomach, and ran to the toilet several times in a row, so that the man received a call from Jiujiu.

"Mr. Tan, are you better?" Esprit still needs Tanzhou's help, and he is still a little worried about his health at the moment, "Do you want to eat more?"

Seeing that there are more than half of the mushroom pot on the table.

Tanzhou waved his hand and refused, "Eat it yourself, I'll wait for you."

The man laughed out loud upon hearing this, attracting the attention of many people around him.

"I've known you for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen you deflated."

"Hua Li, you probably forgot that you went to the hospital with food poisoning when you first came here a few years ago?" Tanzhou sneered back.

"Hey! We have been friends for so many years, why did you expose me in person!" Hua Li recalled that he had been in the hospital for half a month because of food poisoning covered with red bumps, and he couldn't help shouting, "I am Hospitality, treat you to dinner, who knew you would have diarrhea!"

They have known each other since kindergarten, and they have been friends for more than ten years now.

If Huali hadn't accompanied Tanzhou to participate in the Feng Shui master competition back then, and was enslaved by others because of his concern, he wouldn't be staying here now.

"Your man has lived in the mountains again?" Tanzhou simply changed the subject.

"Who can stand his room full of toads, scorpions and snakes?" Hua Li flattened his lips and complained, "He thinks about bugs every day, and doesn't care about me at all!"

"Without him, you might be the husband of an aunt in her 50s now." Tanzhou looked at Esprit beside him, and said, "Take her up the mountain tomorrow."

"Eh? You also know that he hates you?" Hua Li became interested and moved closer to Tanzhou.

"I'm not blind yet." Tanzhou sighed as he recalled the man from Huali's family.

The men in Huali's family are stuffy and seemingly gentle, but they are full of possessiveness.

Tan Zhou dared to say that if Hua Li was not by his side, the poisonous Gu raised by that guy must have entered his stomach long ago.

"It's all because of my strong charm." Hua Li propped his face and smiled, "His worry is also necessary."

"It's really strong." Tanzhou echoed, "Does he know about your relationship history of receiving love letters since kindergarten?"

"Hey!" Hua Li's expression changed instantly. If the jealous man in his family knew about this, he would have to find out all the people who wrote the love letter by then!

Seeing that he was at a loss for words, Tan Zhou simply stopped talking and turned to look at Esprit on the other side: "You follow him tomorrow, his target is good at detoxifying Gu, and it should be useful for you to lower your head."

Esprit didn't dare to intervene, but now she was relieved when she heard Tanzhou's words, and nodded: "Thank you."
