It was already past two in the afternoon. Shen Nan had only taken a two-hour nap in the morning and had been busy since then without any rest.

Now that I'm back in the territory and have arranged everything that needs to be dealt with, as soon as I relax, I start to feel sleepy.

However, before going to bed, Shen Nan went to the tavern first to check if there were any updated tasks suitable for him on the notice.

Seeing that there were no suitable tasks, he bought all five items that were refreshed in the store today.

Unfortunately, my luck was not very good today. All that was refreshed were some food and wood, nothing new.

After shopping, Fanfan had already filled the bathtub with warm water.

Shen Nan, who hadn't had a good bath for a long time, felt extremely comfortable after soaking his whole body in warm water again.

A little mermaid with pink and blue scales gently rises from the water, swaying unconsciously, looking smart and cute.

"Ah~ so comfortable~" Shen Nan lay in the bathtub, making comfortable and satisfied sounds.

The comfortable feeling made him fall asleep in the bathtub without realizing it.

When Fanfan saw that the little master fell asleep, she did not wake him up.

Although the water in the bathtub has gradually become cold, the little mermaid's physique is different from that of humans, and the little mermaid is not afraid of the cold.

Fanfan thought that every species should stay in an environment that suits it. Now her little master is a mermaid, and she is most comfortable staying in the water.

Just like myself, although I can come out of the soil and move by myself, if there is nothing I have to leave, I still prefer to keep my roots in the soil.

Thinking of this, Fanfan did not take Shen Nan back to bed, but let him soak in the bathtub.

So, when Shen Nan was awakened by a system prompt sound and saw Ren Linhe's name, he connected the video in a daze.

On the other side of the screen, after the video was connected, Ren Linhe was instantly mesmerized by the scene before him.

In the light curtain, a little man with his upper body naked appeared. A few pink scales on his collarbone shimmered gently in the water waves. His shoulder-length light pink hair floated in the water around his neck, and his eyes were still a little confused.

Ren Linhe swallowed involuntarily, and his Adam's apple slid slightly.

At this time, Shen Nan had already sat up from the bathtub, rubbing his eyes drowsily, with a hint of sleepiness in his eyes.

Seeing Shen Nan's half-asleep, half-awake, voice soft and sweet, Ren Linhe's heart skipped a beat, but he still responded quickly, asking with concern: "Why are you sleeping in the bathtub? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, I was busy all night yesterday and was so tired that I fell asleep without realizing it." Shen Nan's voice was still a little lazy.

More importantly, after turning into a mermaid, it is really comfortable to soak in the water. My whole body exudes a feeling of relaxation and freedom, as if I am a mermaid, not a human being.

When Ren Linhe heard Shen Nan say that he hadn't rested all night, his brows furrowed slightly, "Do you want to rest for a while?"

Shen Nan glanced at the time and found that he had slept in the bathtub for more than 7 hours, so he replied: "No, I slept for more than seven hours, I'm full."

Ren Linhe nodded, "Then let Fanfan make something to eat. After eating, we can rest and go back to sleep."

"Yeah." Shen Nan put his chin on the edge of the tub and nodded in response, "By the way, Uncle Ren, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Can't I come to you if there's nothing wrong?" Ren Linhe asked back with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

"Of course." Shen Nan replied with a smile.

He has been very busy these days, especially now that Xia is in a special period where it is fighting against three other countries alone. Everyone has important tasks to do and has no time to rest.

Every time I finish my work, I can't help but think of Ren Linhe in my heart, but I am worried about disturbing him, so I can only bury this longing in my heart.

So, when Ren Linhe suddenly contacted him, he was very happy.

Ren Linhe naturally knew the priorities of the matter, so he waited until the break time at 9 or 10 o'clock in the evening to make a video call.

In addition to wanting to ask about Shen Nan's competition, he also felt a little bit of longing for him because he hadn't seen him for so long.

"How's it going lately? Did the competition go well?"

When Shen Nan heard Ren Linhe asking about the competition, his eyes lit up instantly, and he chattered quickly: "It went very smoothly! Let me tell you..."

He started by talking about how he came to the Fantasy Forest to establish his territory, and then talked about how he eliminated the goblins the next day, and then took the task from the tavern to go to a new place to eradicate the hobbits. He told Ren Linhe everything he had seen and heard in the past few days.

Especially when he talked about riding the giant wind-wing bird back to the territory, from being unfamiliar at the beginning to being able to sit on the back of the giant wind-wing bird and perform various difficult movements in the sky, his whole little face was filled with excitement that was difficult to conceal.

Ren Linhe was also very cooperative. Whenever Shen Nan talked about something interesting, he would give some appropriate praise.

These compliments made Shen Nan's face gradually turn red. He embarrassedly put his chin into the water and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

To break the brief silence, Shen Nan quickly changed the subject and asked, "How was your competition? Did it go well?"

"Of course." Ren Linhe smiled slightly and looked at Shen Nan gently.

Once upon a time, the Bald Eagle Nation was the overlord of the Blue Water Planet, but now, it has long lost its former strength.

During the National Destiny copy, the Bald Eagle Country had already been left behind by the current Xia Country due to its lack of internal unity, the absence of a lucky and powerful person who could turn the tide, and many other reasons.

In addition, after losing the competition and being punished, it has become a huge question mark whether the Bald Eagle Country's overall strength can still remain in the top three among all countries.

Therefore, facing this small competition, it is naturally no problem.

In order to satisfy Shen Nan's curiosity, Ren Linhe also carefully selected some interesting events from the ring match to talk about.

It tells the story of how some contestants from the Xia Kingdom cleverly exploited the rules of the ring competition to make the contestants from the Bald Eagle Kingdom repeatedly embarrass themselves in the competition.

Shen Nan listened to these events with great fascination, laughing in the bathtub. The little mermaid's tail flapped happily in the water, making a "pa pa" sound and splashing water everywhere.
