Seeing that it was Zhang Zian who came in and not the stinky orange cat, Sihwa still looked past his body and stared at the door vigilantly.
She turned on the shower and washed her body over and over again, trying to wash away the stubborn smell of cat urine.
"Ajeo-an, lend me the shower gel!" she said, pointing to the shower gel on the shelf.
Zhang Zian handed the shower gel to her, even though he wasn't sure if the shower gel used by mermaids would cause skin allergies or something like that …
Sihwa squeezed out a little shower gel, put it in her palm, sniffed it, and rubbed it. She asked unsatisfactorily, "Is there a shower gel that makes a lot of bubbles in the bathtub?"
"That … That needs special shower gel. Normal shower gel can't make so many bubbles." Zhang Zian opened the bathroom cabinet, found the remaining bubble balls from the corner, and taught her how to use them.
Sihwa did the same thing, and in a short while, the entire bathtub was filled with rich bubbles. Even her hair was covered in white bubbles.
"Wahahahaha! So fun! "She happily held up a handful of bubbles and blew them out. She was having a lot of fun.
Zhang Zian took a mop and wiped the water stains on the floor. Otherwise, when he walked out, the house would be full of wet footprints.
In addition, he was also very distressed about the water bill. Now, he basically had to change the bathtub's water every day, sometimes even two.
He sighed. "You two really know how to make trouble. Sooner or later, the house will collapse …"
"It provoked me first!" Sihwa put her hands on her hips and said, unconvinced. "I'm a pacifist. If it wasn't for the fat orange cat provoking me first, I wouldn't even bother with it!"
"But you always call it a fat orange cat. Of course it's angry," Zhang Zian asked. "Do you like being called a stinky salted fish?"
"Ajeo-an! Do you want to fight too? "Her almond-shaped eyes were wide open, glaring at him.
Zhang Zian smiled calmly. "You see, you're very angry when you're called a stinky salted fish. Then, it has the right to be angry when it's called a fat orange cat, right?"
"But … but it's a fat orange cat! Why can't it be called that? "She was still unconvinced.
"Then smell yourself. Are you stinky?" Zhang Zian answered with a question. "Why can't I call you a stinky salted fish?"
She didn't need to smell it to know that she smelled terrible, but it was the smell of urine from the cat litter, not her own smell.
"I don't smell at all! This isn't my smell! "she retorted vehemently.
Zhang Zian imitated her tone. "But Fina isn't very fat. Besides, it's not an orange cat. Its hair is obviously golden. It's a primitive Egyptian cat. Can't you tell the difference between orange and gold?"
"In any case, it's about the same …" Most of her aura disappeared.
Although her body was like that of a young girl in her prime, her mind was that of a naughty child.
Children always liked to give others nicknames. It was fine if it was a kind nickname, but it was often an insulting nickname based on the physical or psychological shortcomings of others. They did not care about the trauma that the nickname might cause to the other party's heart, causing the other party to bear a grudge, and even after many years, they would not be able to forget it.
Zhang Zian said earnestly, "There is an old saying in China …"
"Don't say I didn't warn you?" she immediately followed up.
"… Who told you that?" he asked dumbfoundedly.
"When the woman named Snowy came to the live broadcast, I heard you say it. My ears are very sensitive!" She playfully swung her dark green curly hair, causing the foam to fly everywhere.
Zhang Zian coughed. "Ahem! Actually, it's not … "
"Then it's' Put aside disputes when you are poor, and have been rich since ancient times'?" she continued.
"Neither! It's' Don't do to others what you don't want them to do to you '! " Zhang Zian originally wanted to act cool, but he didn't expect her to continue the conversation and embarrass him. He thought to himself that this girl's ears were too sensitive. She clearly heard what he said downstairs. Couldn't she just let him act cool?
"What does that mean?" she asked, puzzled.
"It means that if you don't want to be treated like this by others, then you shouldn't treat others like this." Zhang Zian first explained the original meaning, then said, "If you don't want to be called a stinky salted fish by Fina, then why did you call it a fat orange cat? You don't want to accept insulting nicknames, and it doesn't want to accept them either. Think about it, doesn't that make sense? "
Sihwa puffed up her cheeks and wanted to refute, but after thinking about it, she didn't know how to refute.
I'm a mermaid, not a cat that can be seen everywhere, she thought. Besides, I don't stink.
But what Zhang Zian said seemed to be right. The orange cat was actually not that fat. Of course, it was fatter than her, and it wasn't orange. Of course, she could tell what was orange and what was gold.
In fact, she heard a few children say the phrase "nine out of ten orange cats are fat, and one of them crushes the bed" when she was at the beach. Because she thought it was catchy and very interesting, she remembered it. The moment she saw Fina, she blurted it out without thinking.
Her brain couldn't wrap around it, and she didn't want to speak.
Zhang Zian stopped there and didn't immediately force her to admit her mistake. Otherwise, it would arouse her rebellious mentality.
He changed the topic and raised the phone's packaging from behind him. "Right, the phone you wanted, I bought it."
"Huh? Really? I want it! I want it! Give it to me quickly! "
Sihwa immediately threw the question to the back of her mind. She couldn't wait to reach out her hands and stared at the phone box. Her body propped up as if she wanted to stand up from the bathtub, but she immediately slid back down. After all, she didn't have legs, and her lower body was slippery with large fish scales.
"Wait, let me say this first — your hands are full of foam. Although this phone has a certain degree of waterproof, the charger is not. If there's a leakage, you'll become a boiled fish!" Zhang Zian warned.
"There won't be a leakage! I'll be careful! " She was like a child who was eager to get a toy, making meaningless promises. However, the charger would definitely leak when it came into contact with water, so she didn't have the final say.
Zhang Zian opened the packaging in front of her and turned the phone on. "I can give you the phone, but the charger has to be placed outside. If you need to charge it, call me, and I'll help you charge it — but you can only charge it once a day."
"Why?" She wrinkled her nose in dissatisfaction.
"Because this is my home. Have you paid the electricity bill?" Zhang Zian asked.
She rolled her eyes. "A-jeoan, you cheapskate!"
Zhang Zian felt that if there were no restrictions, she would definitely play with her phone from morning to night every day, without stopping for a moment.
The unopened new phone basically had about half of its battery. Zhang Zian briefly checked the pre-installed apps in the phone and uninstalled all the useless ones.
"What are you doing?" Sihwa asked eagerly. "Give me the phone!"
"It'll be done in a minute. Wait a minute — don't you want to watch the live broadcast? I have to install the live broadcast app for you. Otherwise, how will you watch it? "he replied casually.
If it was in the past, he probably wouldn't have agreed to her request to watch the live broadcast, because the content of the live broadcast was mixed, and not all of it was suitable for children who lacked judgment.
However, recently, with the country's round after round of dimensionality reduction, the live broadcast platforms had gradually turned over a new leaf and entered the proper development track. One after another, they introduced a parental control mode for minors. Under this mode, they could only see the full-age content filtered out by the live broadcast platform, but the TV content classification was still far away …
It was precisely because of this that Zhang Zian agreed to her request.
He installed the app of the live broadcast platform that Snowy was on on his phone. He felt that the platform was not bad, so he installed it on Sihwa's phone as well.
"Okay, here you go." After he was done, he handed the phone to her.
"Wow! I have a phone! I have a phone! "Sihwa was so happy that she danced with joy, holding the phone very carefully.
"Right, does that fat orange cat have a phone?" she asked, blinking her bright eyes.
Zhang Zian answered truthfully, "No."
"Hee hee! That's great! That fat orange cat always shows off its diamond ring in front of me, and now I also have something that it doesn't have! " She was overjoyed and looked at the door of the bathroom again, as if hoping that Fina would appear again so that she could show off.
She knew that Fina's status in this shop was extraordinary, and it seemed to be given preferential treatment everywhere. Now, there was finally something that she could beat.
Zhang Zian saw that it was getting late, and estimated that lunch should have been delivered, so he wanted to go downstairs to eat.
"Wait a minute!"
His shirt was grabbed from behind. When he looked back, the foam between Sihwa's fingers had stained his shirt.
"Is there anything else?" he asked.
"This … How do I use the phone?" She stared at the phone with a frown.
She had only seen people using the phone on TV and from the pedestrians outside the window, but she had never used it herself. She didn't know what to do in the face of the different icons, like a tiger trying to eat a hedgehog.
"Okay."
Zhang Zian sent a message to Lu Yiyun, telling them to eat first when lunch came, and not wait for him. He then took a towel to wipe the water and foam off the edge of the bathtub, sat sideways, and pointed to the icons on the screen. "It's actually very simple. You just need to remember the few uses of the icons – for example, this one is for watching live broadcasts."
He used Snowy's live broadcast room as an example, and simply introduced the operation of the live broadcast app to her, how to follow a certain live broadcast room, what a bullet screen was, and helped her apply for an account to watch live broadcasts.
Snowy currently didn't have a live broadcast, so she could only watch previous recordings.
Sihwa was very smart, and she learned it in a few minutes. She skillfully started and exited the app.
"A-jeoan, what are these icons for?" she asked, pointing to a few icons at the bottom of the home page.
"Oh, these are functions for making calls, sending text messages, contacting people, and so on. But currently, the phone doesn't have a SIM card installed, so you can't make calls or send text messages," Zhang Zian explained.
"Then how can I make a call?" Sihwa asked.
Zhang Zian was stunned. "Who do you want to call?"
Sihwa looked sad. "I want to call oppa and tell him that Sihwa is very lonely."
