Chapter 677 The Atmosphere Is Gone (22)

After Xier and Tan Jiner left, Zhang Tan finished the tea in the cup, got up and went back to his room, and told Lao Li to go back early: "It's cold, you're old, don't force yourself, go back and warm yourself by the fire."

Lao Li: "..."

He decided that he would never give Zhang Tan tea again, what a fool!

At ten o'clock in the evening, the little teachers arranged for the remaining children to go back to the dormitory to sleep. Xiaobai was still reluctant to leave, but her little girlfriends had all left. She looked around and found only Luo Zikang who was familiar with her, so she took the doll and went to the dormitory on the second floor. She walked around Luo Zikang's little bed and took the opportunity to talk to him: "Luo Zikang, why doesn't your bald head grow hair?"

Luo Zikang rolled his eyes at her and disdained to talk to her.

"Why are you glaring at me?"

"Go away!" Luo Zikang said briefly, as if saying one more word to Xiaobai would be a waste of life. He lay down, covered himself with a quilt, looked at the ceiling, and began to sleep.

"Luo Zikang, are you dreaming?" Xiaobai asked curiously.

Luo Zikang rolled his eyes at her again: "Silly child!"

Xiaobai was stunned and confirmed again that Luo Zikang was still the same Luo Zikang, a complete scoundrel. It was impossible for her to chat with Luo Zikang, because Luo Zikang's brain was not working well.

"Silly~" Xiaobai muttered and walked away obediently. When passing by the door, Teacher Xiaoman reminded her to go home and not run to the yard. After watching her go upstairs, she turned her attention to the children in the dormitory and said: "Lie down, the teacher is going to turn off the lights~"

Suddenly, she seemed to hear a child say something, but the voice was too soft and she didn't hear it clearly, as if it was an auditory hallucination.

She looked around the dormitory and didn't notice anything unusual, so she turned off the lights. At this time, Luo Zikang spoke: "Teacher Xiaoman~"

Teacher Xiaoman came to his bed and whispered: "What's wrong? Everyone is going to sleep."

Luo Zikang pointed to the small bed further inside and said: "Zheng Zheng was talking to you just now, but you ignored her."

"Ah?" Teacher Xiaoman was surprised, "Zheng Zheng is talking to me? The teacher didn't hear it, I'll go and see."

She walked in and came to the innermost part of the classroom. She saw a child lying on a small bed, with only his quilt showing. A little head popped out, eyes were clear, but full of grievances. Seeing her coming, she called out "Teacher Xiaoman" aggrievedly~

The water vapor in her eyes was condensing...

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Sorry, Zheng Zheng, the teacher didn't hear you just now, sorry, what do you want to say to the teacher?"

It would be fine if she didn't speak, but as soon as she spoke, the tears in Zheng Zheng's eyes gathered faster and slid down from the corners of her eyes, one drop, two drops, three drops...

Teacher Xiaoman was in a panic, but fortunately Zheng Zheng was just sobbing, not crying loudly, otherwise the children would not want to sleep.

Under the gentle comfort of Teacher Xiaoman, the little girl named Zheng Zheng finally expressed her grievances. It turned out that she didn't have auditory hallucinations just now, but there was indeed a child who spoke, and that person was Zheng Zheng. Zheng Zheng said that she wanted to listen to a story, because the mother would tell stories when the baby went to sleep, and she couldn't sleep without a story.

Zheng Zheng's bed was originally Xiao Yingzi's, but Xiao Yingzi basically doesn't sleep on the little red horse now. Before 10 o'clock in the evening, her stepfather will come to pick her up home.

So her bed was given to another child.

…

On the third floor, Zhang Tan opened the door upon hearing the sound. Xiao Bai stood at the door in her pajamas, eagerly telling him that she had forgotten the story of the Castle in the Sky, so she wanted to listen to it again.

“…Then come in.”

Zhang Tan led the child into the room. When he was about to close the door, he suddenly felt something in his mind and looked at the other end of the corridor. Sure enough, he saw Teacher Jiang standing at the door!

The two smiled in tacit understanding. Zhang Tan was about to make an OK gesture, but unexpectedly, Teacher Jiang got there first!

“Boss Zhang, what are you doing? Come on.” In the living room, Xiao Bai saw that Zhang Tan didn’t follow him and was shouting.

Zhang Tan closed the door, returned to the living room and said, “Why are you sitting here? Don’t you know that you have to lie on the bed, cover yourself with a quilt, and hold a doll to listen to bedtime stories?”

Xiao Bai was stunned: “Isn’t this good?”

“What’s wrong with this? This is the best way to listen to stories. Come on, I’ve prepared everything for you.”

After that, he left first. Xiaobai looked at him from behind, hesitated for a moment, climbed down from the sofa, put on slippers, and followed him into the room.

Zhang Tan sat by the bed waiting for her, but she suddenly stopped at the door.

"What's wrong? Come in, isn't this bed comfortable or soft?" Zhang Tan patted the bed.

Xiaobai turned to look out the window and said, "Boss Zhang, it's raining, have you put away the clothes?"

"..."At such a warm time, you are concerned about whether the clothes have been put away. What's wrong with your head? "I have put them away, don't worry, come here, let's tell stories and then go to sleep."

"Oh." Xiaobai said, "I'll go check."

"Hey~"

Xiaobai had already run to the balcony to check whether the clothes had been put away, and then came back, closed the door, climbed onto the bed, and saw Zhang Tan was about to lie down, and immediately warned: "Boss Zhang, what are you doing?"

"Ah? Nothing, it's mainly because it's raining, I'm a little cold, let me lie in the quilt and tell you a story, okay?"

"Isn't that bad?"

"That's fine, I'm in good health, I shouldn't catch a cold."

"..."

Finally, Zhang Tan got his wish and lay in the quilt, leaning against the head of the bed, Xiaobai lay far away, a million miles away from him, like a thief.

Zhang Tan was speechless.

But it doesn't matter, everything is difficult at the beginning.

"Do you really want to listen to "Castle in the Sky" again?" he asked.

Xiaobai opened her clear eyes and nodded a little embarrassedly, "Hmm."

"But haven't you listened to it several times? I know Cheng Cheng told you."

"I want to listen to it again."

"Do you want me to change a story? You haven't heard it before."

"No!"

Unexpectedly, Xiaobai didn't want to, she wanted to listen to "Castle in the Sky".

"Okay, but why? Don't you like to listen to new stories?"

"Ho ho ho~~~"

Xiaobai's little face seemed to be more rosy under the light of the desk lamp, like an apple frosted in autumn.

"I want to listen! Do you want to tell me or not?"

Zhang Tan: "..."

I thought you were going to say something gentle and private, but I didn't expect you to say this to me, and the atmosphere was gone!

The next day, Zhang Tan was so hungry that he was beating drums, and the meal hadn't been delivered yet!

He lingered over to the refrigerator, hesitated for a moment, opened the refrigerator, found the snacks prepared for the children, picked a pack of bear biscuits, tore it open and ate some first to fill his stomach.

So hungry!

The clock on the wall showed that it was already half past twelve. The lunch that was supposed to be delivered at 12 o'clock had not arrived yet.

Finally, after he ate two pieces of bear biscuits, there was a noise in the yard. He went to the balcony and looked out and saw Tan Jiner coming late with Xiaobai and Xier!

He quickly put the remaining bear biscuits into his pocket, wiped his mouth, opened the door, and welcomed the arrival of the three girls.

"Sorry, sorry, Boss Zhang, I'm late. You must be hungry." Tan Jiner apologized as soon as she appeared.

"It's okay, I'm not hungry."

Gurgle, boom, boom~~~

The stomach was rumbling.

Tan Jiner stared at Zhang Tan's stomach in surprise, then pretended not to hear it and went to the restaurant with the lunch box.

Zhang Tan was very embarrassed and silent.

"hiahiahiahia~~~~"

Xier and Xiaobai, these two idiots, laughed very calmly! No face was given.

"Eat, eat, if you laugh again, there will be no food!" Zhang Tan threatened.

Tan Jiner had already put the prepared lunch on the table, including her specialty, Dengying beef, and the new Bangbang chicken.

"I heard that you like Bangbang chicken, so I made a special portion. It was the first time, so it took some time. Don't worry, there is not too much chili, it should suit your taste, you try it."

Tan Jiner took out a pair of clean chopsticks and handed them to Zhang Tan.

Zhang Tan picked up a piece of Bangbang chicken, which was indeed not spicy.

He was a little surprised. When he saw the Bangbang chicken, his anus subconsciously tightened, thinking that he was going to suffer again, but he didn't expect that the Bangbang chicken made by Tan Jiner was not spicy!

He couldn't help asking: "Why do you think I don't eat spicy food? If Bang Bang Chicken is not spicy, is it still Bang Bang Chicken?"

"Ah? You, do you eat spicy food?" Tan Jin'er was stunned, and then apologized: "I'm sorry, Boss Zhang, I guessed, Xiaobai said you like to eat Bang Bang Chicken, but I usually noticed that you don't seem to eat spicy food, so..."

Xiaobai ran over and said confidently: "I have asked Boss Zhang to eat spicy food, he can eat spicy food, but Sister Jin'er just doesn't add spicy food. I don't know why, okay, Boss Zhang doesn't like spicy food~"

Xi'er followed and said: "Xi'er also said it, but Sister didn't listen!"

Zhang Tan glanced at them and thought to himself, you guys go play somewhere else!
