After Zhao Jing bought the bookcase, he asked Lin Anan to put the new shoes in it.
However, when he called out to her, he realized that she did not react.
He turned his head and saw Lin Anan biting her lower lip, her face pale.
He seemed to be struggling.
"An 'an?"
Zhao Jing called her again, and Lin Anan finally woke up.
"Hmm?"
Lin Anan looked up and saw her husband looking at her with concern.
"Husband, what's wrong?"
Zhao Jing thought that she was still nervous, so he smiled at her and pointed at the open book box.""You don't need to hold your shoes. Let it in and we'll go listen to a storyteller.”
Lin Anan obediently put the shoes in.
Zhao Jing carried the bookcase and walked out, holding Lin Anan's hand.
Lin Anan looked back and saw that most of the customers had left.
Her brother, Lin Xiangming, was nowhere to be seen.
Lin Anan retracted her gaze, pulled herself together, and followed Zhao Jing to the restaurant.
It was Zhao Jing's first time visiting an ancient restaurant like this.
However, they didn't need to ask for directions. They followed the crowd and arrived at Chaoyang Restaurant.
When he arrived nearby, he saw that the restaurant was already filled with people.
Good fellow!
This grand occasion, could it be that everyone was here to listen to his book?
Speaking of which, today was already the third day of the lecture on " Primal ". The book would be officially released tomorrow.
Looking at the situation, Zhao Jing did not doubt that this book would be popular.
He pulled the little girl to the door and passed through the crowd of people who were attracted by the commotion at the door.
Zhao Jing took out the invitation card from his pocket and handed it to the waiter who was guarding the door.
When the waiter saw the invitation card, he invited Zhao Jing and the other man in.
"Young Master, the private rooms are already full, but the view from each seat is also good. I hope Young Master doesn't mind.”
Zhao Jing looked at the seat. He was sitting at a slightly higher position on the side, facing the storyteller's platform on the right.
The table was quite big and the view was indeed good.
"If that's the case, I'll have to trouble you, little brother." Zhao Jing said to the waiter.”
The waiter didn't expect that this scholar who was holding the invitation card of the Liu family would be so polite to him. He said happily,"You're welcome."
"Young Master has the invitation card from our Liu Residence. I will go get some tea for Young Master and some famous food in the shop.”
Zhao Jing thought to himself, I didn't expect this invitation to be so good.
It seemed that the shopkeeper of the bookstore was indeed very sincere in cooperating with him.
"Then I'll have to trouble you. Oh right, this is my wife's first time drinking tea. I'm afraid she won't be used to it, so please make the tea a little lighter.”
The waiter answered one by one.
Zhao Jing thanked the waiter again and pulled Lin Anan to sit down.
Although it was Zhao Jing's first time in an ancient restaurant, he had a lot of experience. He just sat calmly in his seat and occasionally listened to the discussions of the people beside him.
Lin Anan was different.
She opened her big round eyes and looked around curiously.
After the waiter served the tea, Zhao Jing poured her a cup of tea and asked her to drink it.
Only then did the little girl obediently turn her head and smile. She said,""Husband, it's so lively!"
"When will the storyteller come out?”
"It will probably take another fifteen minutes. Have some tea first.”
Lin Anan obediently picked up the teacup and took a sip. Then, she smacked her lips and said,""It seems a little astringent."
"But it smells so good."
Zhao Jing had asked the waiter to make the tea lighter, which was suitable for Lin Anan who was drinking tea for the first time.
There were many people in the shop looking for their friends or seats.
Zhao Jing was still in the crowd when he saw Zhao Wengao's figure.
He and his classmates were standing at the door and looking around, as if they were still looking for a place.
"Anan, wait here. I'll go to the door." Zhao Jing said to Lin Anan.”
Lin Anan nodded and stared at Zhao Jing nervously.
However, there were a lot of people in the restaurant, so Zhao Jing's figure quickly disappeared from her sight.
"Today, I'm going to talk about the last volume. I wonder why Daoist Hongjun wants to scheme against those 3,000 Demon Gods.”
"Yeah, no wonder there are so many people in the shop.”
"Hiss, I told you to come early, but you dilly-dallied.”
Zhao Jing walked to the door and greeted Zhao Wengao,""Wen Gao, this way."
Zhao Wengao was a little surprised to see Zhao Jing.
"Brother Zhao, why are you here?"
Zhao Jing smiled and said," I brought your sister-in-law out to read. I have a seat there. Do you want to sit with me?"”
When Zhao Wengao heard that there was a seat, he quickly agreed happily.
Zhao Jing led him and his classmate to their seats.
Zhao Wengao was so excited that he kept babbling in his ear.
"You also like the story of 'Ancient Mythology'? Did you come out two days ago?"
"This storyteller is really good at breaking chapters. Every day, he would break it off at a critical moment and say that it will be broken down next time.”
"Even our teacher was attracted by it. He asked us to leave class early and came over to listen.”
Only then did Zhao Jing know that the shopkeeper had changed the name of his story.
It changed from " Primal " to " Ancient Mythology ".
Zhao Jing smiled." I was busy harvesting crops two days ago. I didn't have time to come out."”
"Fortunately, we managed to make it to the last match today.”
"I heard that this story was written by a person called 'Scholar Scenic Yang'. This person is really amazing!”
Zhao Wengao said and pondered for a moment.
"Scenery, Yang Scenery!"
He looked at Zhao Jing, who was leading the way, and then shook his head.
How was this possible?
......
Zhao Jing had been gone for a while.
Lin Anan looked around nervously as the conversation continued.
"Hey, there's a seat for one person over there. Let's go ask her if we can share a table.”
They walked up to Lin Anan and said,""Little girl, how many people do you have here? Do you mind sharing a table?”
Lin Anan raised her head in confusion. Then, she heard a confused voice.
"Lin Anan?"
Lin Anan's body tensed up instantly. She turned around and saw Lin Xiangming standing at the side.
She stood up uneasily and called out in a soft voice,""Big brother!"
Lin Xiangming looked at Lin Anan, then at the tea on her table and sneered.
"It really is Lin Anan."
"I almost couldn't recognize you after you changed into a new set of clothes.”
"Looking at you, your life is pretty good now?”
"Xiang Ming, do you know him?" A classmate asked curiously.”
"That's good. Let's share a table."
Lin Xiangming frowned. He didn't want to sit with Lin Anan.
Lin Anan was a burden brought by her mother who had escaped from a disaster. She was not allowed to eat at the table when she was at home.
When they arrived at the restaurant, she wanted him to sit with her. Lin Xiangming didn't want to agree at all.
However, the classmate beside her kept urging her.
"This is my stepmother's daughter. She can be considered my younger sister."”
" You can stand by the door and listen," he said to Lin Anan." Go over there and give us your seat."”
Lin Anan was at a loss as she twisted the corner of her clothes.
"No, you can't."
"My, my husband is coming back!"
This was the first time she had rejected Lin Xiangming's request. Lin Xiangming asked in disbelief,"What did you say?"
"Say it again?"
Lin Anan bit her lip and didn't dare to speak anymore.
The classmate next to Lin Xiangming saw this and added fuel to the fire,"Xiang Ming, you're not very good as an elder brother.”
"Even my sister doesn't want to sit at the same table as you.”
When Lin Xiangming heard that, he could not help but be furious.
He glared at Lin Anan, who shuddered.
"Lin Anan, are you getting bolder?"
"Hurry up and get lost! It's bad luck to see you like this!”
