"I'm a little painter, with painting skills so strong..."
Brother Nan hummed the song happily. She pulled out her wallet and placed the card in its holder in front of Zhou Li, then raised her eyebrows at him. "If you're so capable, go on and steal it when I'm not looking."
Zhou Li: ...
Just then, his phone rang. It sounded like a voice or video call. He picked it up to check.
"Who?" Brother Nan asked immediately.
"Huai Xu."
"Oh," Brother Nan nodded. "Are there any girls at school who added your QQ and keeps messaging you 'good morning' and 'good night' every day?"
"Shush."
Zhou Li signaled her to be quiet and brought the phone to his ear.
Brother Nan fell silent. She tiptoed closer to him, bent down, and pressed her ear against his phone too. As a result, their faces were now separated by little more than the phone, some of their skin even touching.
Both held their breath.
However, there was no sound from the other end of the call.
"'Hello?' Brother Nan said.
