C10 Chuckling

His body went from cold to hot, and his internal organs were all in pain. Helian Shu gritted her teeth to keep herself from making a sound as she curled up under the blanket.

A warm hand rested on her forehead, which was covered in cold sweat. She smelled something familiar, and her tense nerves relaxed again.

A gentle warmth flowed from the top of her head and slowly spread throughout her body. The pain gradually receded, and after an unknown period of time, she tried her best to open her eyes. There was a man sitting on the edge of the bed, smiling at her.

Helian Shu didn't have the time to react for a moment, and directly threw a punch at him.

Helian Qi, who wanted to show off his brother's love, suddenly got a punch on his nose, causing his eyes to tear up. Clutching his nose, he shouted, "Shu!"

Helian Shu blinked, remembering that he was her big brother. He silently retracted his hand and pretended to be calm as he said, "Sitting by my bed in the middle of the night, aren't you just looking for a beating?"

"Alright, alright, alright …" Helian Qi accepted his fate and sighed, "Sister is right, sister is always right. If you have any objections, please refer to the first two."

Helian Shu turned her head to the side uncomfortably and asked, "What are you here for?" Stole money should go to Chu and mother's place, right?

"I came to call you over for dinner. By the way, I'm going to the Yun Xi Book House to take the night shift. When I arrived at Yin, I wasn't there for a period of time. There's a stick of candied fruits on the table. This hairpin is yours. The bun is crooked. Make it beautiful tomorrow and I'll wear it for you. " Helian Qi nagged on and on, then he gave the wooden hairpin to her, "Be good, I'm leaving. Remember to finish the meat. You won't be able to eat it overnight in summer."

After messing up his hair, Helian Qi left the room with a smile.

Helian Shu looked at the butterfly hairpin in her hand without saying a word. The top of her head was still warm from the heat. She touched it absentmindedly with the corner of her mouth slightly raised.

After a while, she felt that this didn't match her maturity, so she lowered her hand in frustration. However, she couldn't suppress the corner of her lips no matter how hard she tried.

The Yunyang City at night, closed at night, and opened at ugly times.

This meant that Helian Qi was fine, he could still sleep for a while when he went back.

The only thing he thought was strange was that there was a curfew in the city, so why was the Yun Xi Book House activated?

Standing at the gate of the study room, the study room, which he had spent the day reading but had seen nothing, now seemed somewhat sinister.

Helian Qi took a deep breath. He wasn't afraid! He was a newbie who had died once, what the hell was he afraid of? At most, they could just scrape together after coming here.

What should he do? He was even more afraid now. Helian Qi looked up at the sky, the sky was filled with stars. For the sake of life, for the sake of mother and sister … In fact, ghosts were not scary either.

Helian Qi drank a few bowls of chicken soup with his eyes closed. Then, he opened his eyes, strode over and used his key to open the door.

The first time he went on duty, no one was watching him. Helian Qi really didn't know if the boss trusted him too much, or if he was sure that Ye Zichen didn't dare to do anything.

When he lit the candle, he discovered a letter on the counter: 'Helian brat, if you see this letter, you will have no way out. Remember, don't ask too many questions, read as you please, don't leave the counter unless there are special circumstances, the books are on the counter, no books are borrowed, and remember never to be rude to anyone.

These words … Helian Qi swallowed his saliva with difficulty. He randomly picked out a book of poems from the bookshelf and sat on a high chair on the counter. After flipping through the books, he realized that he had to first familiarize himself with the business.

After a long while, he yawned and patted his face. The fear from before had long been forgotten.

"Creaak.

A gust of wind blew over, and he heard more people saying, "Zi's time is up. "The sky is dry and the objects are dry. Be careful of the fire —"

"Clang!"

At midnight? Helian Qi stared at the door. Was this the sound of a ghost?

"Dumplings..." Is there anyone outside? " Helian Qi asked in a low voice, his hand clutching the book tightly. As long as the situation was not good, he was ready to slap the book at any time.

"There's none outside, there's something inside."

A voice suddenly came from under the counter. Helian Qi was surprised and didn't show it on his face. After a while, he got up and looked down.

One of them wore a black cloak, had the face of a mouse, and the body of a human … She looked at him with a pair of green beans. New guy? "

"Yes." Helian Qi responded indifferently, not panicking at all.

"Ha!" Interesting to see that I wasn't scared to tears! " After a while, he said regretfully, "I came to look for a local atlas. Which floor did you come from?"

Helian Qi narrowed his eyes, "The second floor's east shelf's third floor has 64 columns."

Hearing that, that person was stunned, "How did you know?"

"This is my job. It's my job." Helian Qi smiled politely.

The man's mouth twitched. "So ugly." With that, he walked up the stairs.

Fortunately, he was prepared … Helian Qi thought, could it be that everyone who came were weird-looking people? Coming out in the middle of the day would scare people, or they would be looked down on and be discriminated against. Thus, he chose to come out in the middle of the night and put on a black cloak.

Just as he was deep in thought, a gust of cold air assaulted his senses. He sniffed the air and felt a sense of familiarity.

Helian Qi tilted his head and looked towards the door. A man in black clothes stepped in. His body was covered in an extremely cold aura. A black tiger followed behind him in a low-profile. His footsteps were completely silent.

"It's you?" Helian Qi became excited after being stunned for a moment. He stretched out his neck and said, "You're reading?"

The expression under the black cloak was so cold, Xuanyuan Yi only glanced at him for a second before he walked upstairs.

Helian Qi really wanted to yell, should he ask where the book was? He knew, he knew!

Xuanyuan Yi quickened his pace and heaved a sigh of relief when he reached the corner as his scorching gaze was about to burn a big hole in the back.

He pressed the center of his brows. He should have let Old White take a look when he was looking for someone.

Helian Qi held his head up, the corner of his mouth almost reached his ears, and asked black tiger lying in the corner: "What kind of books does your master usually like to read?"

The black tiger did not even open its eyes. It had not forgotten the grudge that it had when it touched its head last time.

"I forgot you can't talk." Helian Qi laughed happily. The sleepyhead that just arrived had already flown away.

Previously, when he went back, Helian Qi specifically asked Qi Yue about him. He was very sure that Qi Yue was his father's friend and definitely had no opinion about Shu and Chu.

Since that was the case, he might as well go and flirt with him. I'll just bring it back to him, hehe. Just as he was worrying about not being able to get close to her, she delivered herself to him.

It was still working hours, so he couldn't casually walk around.

While he was thinking, a familiar cold air came down from upstairs. Helian Qi and the black tiger looked up at the same time.

Xuanyuan Yi said with a deadpan expression, "Where's the military manual?"

"Here …" Helian Qi, who was about to answer subconsciously, said apologetically, "I forgot, let's check it out."

As he spoke, he opened a thick stack of books and asked, "Does Young Master usually like reading military books?"

"Yes."

"Aren't you going to look at anything else?" Helian Qi asked in confusion.

"Yes."

Helian Qi blinked and asked: "How about I recommend one to Young Master?"

Xuanyuan Yi frowned slightly, "Did you find it?"

"How's the Book of Songs?" Helian Qi picked up the book of poems beside him and said, "What's written here is great."

Xuanyuan Yi didn't say anything. Just as he was about to open the book and read it himself, Helian Qi gripped it fearlessly and asked in surprise, "Young Master, why is your hand so cold?"

"Let go." The sound of ice falling to dregs.

However … This was exactly what he liked. Forbidden System, haha. Helian Qi touched it several times before he finally let go reluctantly. If he didn't let go now, he felt like his head would be twisted off.

As soon as he opened the book, the booklet was taken away by Helian Qi. He said in a righteous tone, "Young Master, this study has a rule that you are not allowed to open it without permission. Just tell me whatever you want and I will try my best to satisfy you."

"Military Strategy." Xuanyuan Yi narrowed his eyes and looked at him, his anger was about to burst.

"Aren't I looking for him?" Helian Qi glanced at him reproachfully. Any beauty doing this kind of action would be a beauty, but Helian Qi could only be harsh on the eyes.

When the others saw Xuanyuan Yi in twos and threes, they didn't say anything and went to their respective familiar places to read.

"Honestly, do you really not want to consider the Book of Songs? Skin like creamy hand... "She has a sweet smile on her face and looks forward to it." Helian Qi had a deeper meaning behind his smile.

Xuanyuan Yi slammed his palm on the table. A thin layer of ice covered the entire bookstore, causing Helian Qi to sneeze.

"Military Strategy." There was anger in his tone.

Helian Qi was still smiling, "The third floor's North Shelf is full of people from 1 to 30."

Xuanyuan Yi left with his sleeve. The cold air dispersed and the temperature slowly rose again.

Ye Zichen thought Helian Qi was either dead or injured, but he didn't expect him to be fine. This nearly caused the person reading downstairs to drop his jaw in shock.

When did that fiend become so easy to talk to? Shouldn't you just kill him?

"Truly pure. You can't even tease me for a bit." Helian Qi sighed and said to himself helplessly.

Teasing him?

Those who heard this felt their hearts crumble. Where did this brat come from? How could he casually tease someone like that? It was a blessing to be able to survive.

"Hmm?" Since when did so many people come in? Helian Qi looked at them in shock. Some of them had snake tails on their lower body, others had a pair of furry rabbit ears. They had a beast shaped hands and some were covered with thick lion hair.

After looking at them for a while, Helian Qi grinned, "Hello everyone."

They looked at each other without speaking and continued to read. He thought that this person was truly ugly …

Helian Qi opened the book of poems without any care. He wanted to learn a few lines to flirt with men.

After finding the spot Helian Qi mentioned on the third floor, Xuanyuan Yi took out a book. Thirty-six tricks? He flipped it open and took a look. The contents were completely unrelated to each other.

Xuanyuan Yi pressed his forehead which was jumping up and down. Under the moonlight, the page was covered with a simple and easy to understand action diagram. Moreover, it was two men overlapping each other on top of each other.

He gritted his teeth and the book in his hand froze into ice. With a push of his inner force, it turned into bits of ice.

Helian Qi was reading a book at the counter. The vine bracelet on the side turned red and twisted in front of him.

What do you mean?

After thinking for a while, he suddenly came to a realization and quickly ran up to the third floor. Good boy, that ancestor is going to tear down the house!

The people below were so sensitive to the strong murderous aura that they immediately ran away, not even bothering to read their books. The black tiger stood up and growled uneasily. It could not go up without its master's instructions.
