Listening to Tong Yan's words, Zhongli fell into thinking for a moment.

The place became quiet.

"Mr. Zhongli, I'm back~"

A pleasant voice full of laughter came from outside the small courtyard.

Listening to that voice, Zhongli frowned slightly. The light and shadow flickered, and several golden butterflies flew. Hutao came to the court wearing the work clothes of the Hall of Rebirth.

As soon as Hutao appeared, she playfully grabbed Zhongli's slender braid and shook it.

"Mr. Zhongli, has nothing happened to Shengsheng Hall recently?"

Zhong Li shook his head helplessly and was about to answer when Hu Tao flashed behind Tong Yan.

Tong Yan only felt a soft touch on her shoulders, and then her chubby face was poked.

Tong Yan was shocked to find that she could not catch Hu Tao's figure at all, and subconsciously wanted to resist, but Hu Tao very affectionately held Tong Yan's chubby face with his two beautiful hands and kept rubbing it.

"Mr. Zhongli, who is this kid?"

While Hu Tao was talking, Tong Yan found the right opportunity to push her away, then held her head high and said, "I'm not young!"

Hu Tao's gaze fell on Tong Yan for a while. Tong Yan saw the smile gradually appearing in Hu Tao's beautiful plum blossom eyes and subconsciously hugged herself tightly. Then she hid behind Zhong Li, stuck out her little head and asked in a vigilant tone:

"What do you want to do?"

"Hehe~"

Hu Tao blinked at Tong Yan, stuck out her tongue, and said nothing.

Zhong Li stood between the two of them. He said in a calm tone: "Her name is Tong Yan, and she is Mandrill's disciple."

"oh?"

"Mandrill's disciple?"

Hu Tao instantly became interested and immediately got in front of Tong Yan.

Before Tong Yan could react, Hu Tao appeared behind Tong Yan again, and then his chest seemed to be touched by something, but it quickly dissipated.

On the guardrail of the courtyard, Hutao was spinning the butterfly brooch on his fingertips.

"This is the brooch I specially gave to Mandrill. I didn't expect that he would give it to you."

"It seems like you are very special to Mandrill."

Hearing the word "special", Tong Yan's mind already pictured the two of them standing in the marriage hall. She looked at Hu Tao and asked with hope: "Is what you said true?"

With an expression of hope, Hutao put away the brooch, then put his hand on the railing and landed on the ground. With the hem of his clothes fluttering, Hutao came to Tongyan, grabbed Tongyan's little hand, and put the butterfly brooch into her palm.

inside.

Hu Tao flicked Tong Yan's eyebrows with her fingers, and then said with a smile: "Of course I lied to you~"

"How do I know what the Immortal family is thinking?"

"..."

Tong Yan's body stiffened, and she was thinking crazily in her heart, almost forgetting the true nature of this little girl Hu Tao.

Unexpectedly, even after getting married and having children, he still kept his old ways, and he didn't hold back at all, but became even better than before.

Just when Tong Yan decided not to listen to Hu Tao's words anymore, Hu Tao suddenly changed his mind and said, "But that's not necessarily the case."

"After all, Immortal Mandrill rarely interacts with humans. She naturally has deep intentions in accepting you as her disciple."

"Mr. Zhongli, do you think so?"

Hu Tao suddenly brought the topic to Zhongli, but fortunately Zhongli was used to this kind of thing.

After all, a month ago, he suddenly became the acting hall master of the Rebirth Hall, and he heard it from Carrot while walking the birds in the morning. Not only that, he also had to take care of Carrot's daily life.

Just when Zhongli was about to go to Hu Tao to question him, Carrot had already pulled the hem of his clothes and said in a soft and cute voice: "Mom and dad have taken Aunt Beidou's Death Star to Daozuma City."

With no other choice, Zhongli became the acting hall master of the Rebirth Hall.
