Chapter 136



Chapter 136

Ah Zhu was not very afraid of Mr. Zhou Er, but she was very afraid of his friends.

Just a casual glance at the door and he was so scared that he retreated to the backyard in a sweat.

He said that Zhou Erye’s friend was the damn bird that injured him.

Tian Bajiao had thought his story about the clam spirit repaying a favor was a fabrication, but it turned out to be true. She was a little surprised, yet also a little gloating, and said, "Then why don't you run away quickly? If you get caught later, no one will save you."

When Tian Bajiao said this, he had been there for three months. Boss Shen treated him as his most diligent and capable employee, but Tian Bajiao treated him as the most hateful and annoying monster in the world.

Not to mention that there were monsters trying to catch him, even if there was no Tian Bajiao, he would have wanted to stew him.

So why tell her this?

Tian Bajiao asked curiously, "Did he see you? If not, I'll go tell him."

Ah Zhu glared at her and went back to the front without saying a word.

Boss Shen was clearly in the room, but he didn't go to report him. It was really like the sun rising in the west.

Tian Bajiao chased over curiously and found him wiping the counter.

"You're not running?"

Tian Bajiao leaned over and asked.

Ah Zhu pursed her lips and said, "Why are you running? Wouldn't it be better for you if I died? He's next door right now, go and tell him. I've done so much for you, and I thought we were already friends."

Ah Zhu did do a lot of work. He was illiterate, so apart from keeping accounts, he took on almost all the other work and didn't ask for any wages.

When I have free time, I help her wash clothes.

This also made Boss Shen dislike Tian Bajiao very much.

"I didn't ask you to help me. If you don't want to, you can leave."

Tian Bajiao really couldn't understand why he stayed.

Isn't it good to be a free and unfettered monster? Why are you so eager to suffer for yourself? What's wrong with that?

"I want to be a human being..."

When he mentioned this, he was about to cry again.

Tian Bajiao looked around vigilantly. Boss Shen was not there. Fortunately, that was good!

"Don't try to play tricks on me. What's so good about being a human being? When you're eaten to the point of being a hollow shell, you'll realize how horrible this world is."

"Don't try to fool me. Isn't the one next door living well?" Ah Zhu refused to listen and begged, "Please go and check for me. Find out when that monster will leave. My dear sister, I can help you cook."

"You help me? Even Boss Shen has to ask you to help me!" Tian Bajiao rolled her eyes and went out reluctantly. Hexiang was playing with a puppy in front of the door, so she walked over and asked, "Hexiang, who is that? She's quite pretty."

Tian Bajiao just took a glance.

But you can also see that the monster standing in the shop has put on a good-looking appearance.

He Xiang glanced back, shook her head, and said, "I don't know. Dad said he was his friend and would be staying at home for a few days."

"Your father's friend? He looks unfamiliar and doesn't seem to be from this town. Does your mother know him?" Tian Bajiao asked.

He Xiang glanced at her and said vaguely, "You should recognize him. My mother took Sister Xing'er to buy vegetables and said she wanted to treat this uncle well.

Auntie, I'll go entertain him and I won't tell you anymore."

She was quite alert. She picked up the barking puppy and went into the house. Perhaps she was afraid that Tian Bajiao was watching, so she poured him a cup of tea and smiled at him, as if to say: Auntie, look, I didn't lie to you, I'm really busy.

He is quite cautious and can clearly tell the difference between an insider and an outsider.

Tian Bajiao, who had already lost her aunt, could only return silently and said to Ah Zhu who was waiting anxiously, "Be careful, he's going to stay for a few days. Maybe he's really here for you. Why don't you hide in the pot? I'll call you out after he leaves."

"You really are still greedy for my body," Ah Zhu said, "Sister Chen is right. We won't cherish what we get easily. You just know how to treat me badly. I really should be more indifferent to you..."

Tian Bajiao: ...

"You and Mr. Zhou Er are from the same place, right?"

Why are they all in this brothel style? Such a coquettish demeanor?

Whatever comes out of their mouths is so weird.

Ah Zhu said innocently, "I don't recognize him. I'm shy and never liked going out. I don't know many familiar monsters or people in this world. The only people I recognize are you and my sisters Shen and Wang."

So I just rely on them.

Tian Bajiao said without any emotion: "Wow, you're so pitiful. I want to give you a hug and swear that I will never abandon you in this life."

"Would you like to?"

"If you don't want to, go do your job." Tian Bajiao said with a forced smile.

"Hmph!" Ah Zhu swung the rag like a handkerchief and walked away clattering, saying, "Just treat me like this. When you really lose me, you'll be heartbroken, and it will be too late to regret it."

This must have been taught by Boss Shen and Madam Wang.

Tian Bajiao: "That's great, hurry up and make it hurt. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known I had a heart."

If he could find Tian Bajiao's heart, what would be the difference between him and a miracle doctor?

Ah Zhu didn't say anything back, but Tian Bajiao heard it clearly. He was mumbling something to Boss Shen.

I complain, complain, and complain again every day.

This wasn't a clam spirit, it was clearly a snitch spirit. However, he was probably still afraid, so at night he said to Tian Bajiao, who was lying on the beam in a row, "Can you please come down? If you stay up there, I'm afraid you won't even know if I die."

Tian Bajiao: "...I didn't want to know in the first place."

"So you don't want to have a bite? If it's not fresh, it's not tasty. I'm a centuries-old clam, not easy to find," he tried to tempt Tian Bajiao. "Even though I haven't tasted it, I know it must be delicious. That bird grabbed me and slammed me against the rocks, bang bang bang, almost breaking my shell. He chased me for days and nights just to get a bite, and now he's found me. Can you imagine how delicious I am?"

"No, I'm not a bird, I don't like to eat raw food."

Tian Bajiao refused very straightforwardly and with good reasons.

"I think I'm pretty delicious, but what if that monster isn't satisfied with eating me and wants to eat me? It's better to be on top. If anything happens, I'll jump onto the roof and yell for help."

"That's not necessary." A strange voice interrupted.

"I told you, you scared them," Mr. Zhou Er lifted the tiles and lay on the roof to watch them, saying, "The view from here is really clear. No wonder you love houses so much."

Tian Bajiao rolled to the ground.

"What do you want to do?"

The bird demon pushed the door open and walked in: "I just want to explain, so you don't have to be afraid. I'm not here to catch him, and I don't like to eat people."

Tian Bajiao was still looking up, and it was hard not to be scared when he turned around and saw him.

Ah Zhu usually talks a lot, but at times like this, he...he turns into a big clam.

Tian Bajiao pulled back the quilt.

"Really not eating? How about I cook it for you?"
