Jiang Yueyang, a 21st-century office worker, died from a cerebral infarction after working overtime and staying up late. In her dying moments, she bound to a 'Gossip System'.
She then...
After a while, Jiang Yueyang found the book "Jianghu Yiwen", but it took him half a minute to find the boy.
I saw the young man leaning against the bookshelf, with a pile of books placed messily at his feet, all of which were storybooks.
Jiang Yueyang handed him the book in her hand and said in a somewhat aggressive tone: "The book you wanted."
The young man lowered his eyes and glanced at the title of the book. He did not reach out to take it. He looked at Jiang Yueyang and sneered, "Tell me the truth, are you illiterate? What I want is "The Record of Strange Things."
Jiang Yueyang was completely furious, "Your Highness, is it fun to play tricks on me?"
"When did I play tricks on you?" A hint of anger appeared on the boy's face.
"Stop playing dumb. One moment you ask me to help you find "Jianghu Yiwen" and the next moment you ask me to help you find "Qian Shi Lu". You are kidding me! Even if you are a prince, you can't play tricks on me like this! Although I am only a..."
"Stop, stop, stop!" The young man suddenly interrupted her. "When did I ask you to help me find Jianghu Anecdotes? I only asked you to help me find Weird Records. If you don't want to help, then don't help. Stop slandering me here!"
"I slandered you?" Jiang Yueyang was so angry that she grabbed his collar and walked towards a bookshelf.
"Let me go..." The young man wanted to say that Jiang Yueyang was being presumptuous, but when he thought of her identity, he swallowed the words back, "Let me go! Where are you taking me?"
Jiang Yueyang said nothing and pulled the boy towards the bookshelf where they first met.
Soon, they reached the bookshelf.
Jiang Yueyang turned around and glared at him, "It was right here that you said you wanted to read Jianghu Anecdotes and asked me to find it for you."
The boy glanced around and retorted, "I didn't say anything like that here."
Jiang Yueyang laughed angrily, "Your Highness, as a man, you dare not take responsibility for what you have done. Can you be honest?"
"I'm telling the truth!"
After he finished speaking, the young man grabbed Jiang Yueyang's arm and pulled her to another bookshelf in the distance.
He looked at Jiang Yueyang angrily and said, "I'm telling you here that I want to watch "The Strange Story"!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yueyang looked around. Isn't this the place where she saw this guy for the second time?
This guy doesn't look like he's lying, could it be...
"Oh my god, it's a ghost!"
Jiang Yueyang was so scared that all the books in her arms fell to the ground, and she didn't even feel the pain when they hit her feet.
She looked around in panic and asked anxiously, "Little melon, is there something dirty here?"
Hearing the words "encountering a ghost", the boy thought for a moment and knew what had happened.
But he didn't say anything, because she had wronged him.
The young man smiled secretly, inadvertently glancing at the "Record of Strange Stories" on the ground, and bent down to pick it up.
The system replied: [I don’t see any other special energy bodies here, but…]
"Your Highness, wait for me."
The young man picked up the "Record of Strange Stories" and was about to leave. Seeing this, Jiang Yueyang hurriedly followed him, without hearing what the system said at all.
They were deep inside the first floor of the library. There was no one around and the light was dim.
Jiang Yueyang didn't feel anything at first, but now she feels it's chilly here.
The young man deliberately quickened his pace, "You just said that I was playing tricks on you. I hold grudges, so you are not allowed to follow me, and you must keep a distance of three meters from me."
Jiang Yueyang was about to make some excuses when the system reminded her: [Host, you left the book that Kong Jijiu wanted in there.]
Hearing this, Jiang Yueyang paused, then slowly turned his head to look towards a dark place deep inside.
I didn’t think it was that dark just now?
She stared at the place for a while, preparing herself mentally, then suddenly lowered her head and ran back.
After hurriedly picking up the book on the ground, she quickly ran outside again.
After running out and seeing that the boy had not gone far, she hurried over again, not caring at all about the words "Don't follow him".
Hearing the footsteps getting closer behind him, the boy quickened his pace and walked outside.
After a while, they walked outside.
Jiang Yueyang put the book in her hand on the table, thinking that she would go back and call Xu Zheng to find the remaining books together.
At this moment, King Yan came out from the bookshelf on the other side, grabbing a young man's ear.
"Third brother, it's not me, it's Ninth brother."
"Both of you are not running away. When I catch the other one, I will beat you up together!"
Jiang Yueyang looked in the direction of the sound, and when he saw the young man's appearance clearly, his eyes suddenly widened.
She blinked hard, then quickly looked away at the boy next to her who was trying to sneak away.
Great, they are twins!
Jiang Yueyang laughed in anger, blocked the young man's way and shouted into the distance: "Your Highness Prince Yan."
King Yan looked up when he heard the voice and immediately ordered the young man, "Xiao Jiu, come here!"
"Third brother, it's not me!"
The young man avoided Jiang Yueyang and was about to run away, not caring at all about his brother who was from the same mother following him.
Prince Yan dragged the Eighth Prince towards them, saying as he walked, "I haven't said anything yet, but you're in a hurry to deny it. You must have something to do with it!
"Xiaojiu, you have to think it over carefully. If you run away now, I will catch you and you will be in a miserable state, I promise."
Hearing this, the Ninth Prince suddenly stopped and lowered his head with a look of despair.
After a while, Prince Yan dragged the eighth prince here.
He asked the Eighth and Ninth Princes to stand by the bookshelf as punishment. "Come, tell me what you did to An Jieyu. Why did she come to me and cry her heart out?"
Because Prince Yan was the third oldest and the Crown Prince was busy learning how to be a crown prince and had no time to spare, he had always been in charge of his younger brothers.
Until now, he was the one who dealt with any trouble they got into, and the victims were used to coming to him for justice.
"I didn't do anything. It's none of my business. It's my ninth brother's fault!"
"It's not me, it's Mynah!"
The King of Yan looked at them with a half-smile on his face, "You don't have to blame each other. I know both of you are responsible. Tell me, what did you do to An Jieyu?"
"Third brother, it's not appropriate to explain here." The two said in unison.
Hearing this, the officials who were standing or sitting at the scene walked outside silently, but Jiang Yueyang did not move.
King Yan snorted and laughed, "Are you embarrassed now? Hurry up and explain yourself so I can beat you up."
"We didn't do anything to her..." The Eighth Prince spoke first.
The Ninth Prince then said, "They drew two toads on her face."
"And shaved her head again."
