After finishing a cup of tea, Yan Cheng and Feng Guang talked for a few words about the arrangements for Yian Bookstore after he left.
Yian Bookstore is now on the right track, and with Feng Guang around, Yan Cheng doesn't have much to consider.
Yan Cheng and Feng Guang talked about the bookstore's business one after another. Kang Jing listened with great interest, holding a cup of tea. It was unknown how many cups of tea he drank.
When Yan Cheng's mouth was a little dry after talking and he wanted to drink tea, he suddenly found that the teapot was empty. He shook the teapot in surprise and looked at Kang Jing, who looked at him with a puzzled look.
"you……"
"Bang—"
After Yan Cheng threw away the teapot, quickly stood up and pulled Kang Jing away, the wall of the box collapsed.
Dust scattered everywhere. Yan Cheng frowned and took a few steps forward calmly.
First, I saw the embarrassed man in blue who hadn't even put down his fist yet, and then I saw the two mature men sitting behind him.
One of them was dressed in gorgeous clothes, with a noble temperament, not like an ordinary person.
There were three half-drunk cups of tea on the table. The three of them probably discussed something in the box. When the wall collapsed, the man in blue had a particularly angry look on his face, and his anger made him unable to control his behavior.
He looked to be no more than twenty years old, while the other two were around thirty years old. Compared with the two mature men, he was more impulsive and irritable.
Just like now, the embarrassment of the man in blue who pushed down the fragile wall with one punch was almost transformed into reality and lingered around him. The other two mature men had very small expressions and obviously did not take such a small matter to heart.
A combination of a grumpy young man and two mature uncles.
Kang Jing got up from the ground and stood behind Yan Cheng. Feng Guang also stood up after Yan Cheng did the same. At this time, the three of them were looking at the next room.
The three half-grown boys and the three adult men in the next box looked at each other in confusion.
After a moment of silence, the man in white, after receiving a signal from the man in fancy clothes, pulled the man in green. After the two looked at each other, the man in green's face quickly fell.
The man in white bowed to them and said, "My friend is acting unsteadily. I hope the three gentlemen will forgive me. How about I change a private room for you? I'll pay for it."
To show that he kept his word, he placed a large piece of silver on the table, more than enough to spend in the teahouse.
"There's no need to change rooms. We're leaving now. Just compensate the store for the losses."
The three of them whispered a few words, Yan Cheng refused, nodded to the three people next to him, and left the box, as if he didn't want to say anything more to them.
Kang Jing noticed that Yan Cheng stared at the door for a while after closing it, then turned around and looked at it, asking, not knowing what was going on: "What did you see?"
"I always feel that the one who didn't speak pays some attention to me."
Yan Cheng noticed in the box that among the three people in their box, the man in the fancy clothes paid most of his attention to his face.
That expression seemed confused, suspicious, and puzzled, very complicated.
It was as if the man saw the shadow of another person in him.
"What else do I think? He just looks at you because you're pretty." Kang Jing looked at Yan Cheng's face with envy and wanted to touch it. "Why don't I have such a pretty face?"
"When Brother Cheng takes the palace examination in the future, maybe he will be selected as the third place!" Feng Guang said from the side.
"Third place? I'd rather be the first place. Kang Jing, do you still want your hand? Be quiet!"
Yan Cheng felt like he was being teased. He grabbed Kang Jing's restless wrist, glared at him unhappily, turned around and strode downstairs.
"I'll just touch it once, maybe a few more times to get some of that handsome air, and I can become even more handsome. Hey, Cheng-di, wait for me, don't be so stingy, okay?"
The man in blue upstairs had sat down again, and the man in white frowned and lectured him, saying that he was still acting as recklessly as before.
He also knew that he was impulsive, so he admitted his mistake and promised to think more carefully before doing things in the future.
Seeing that he was sincere in admitting his mistake and offered to go and explain the situation to the store owner, the man in white relaxed his brow and let him go down to find the store owner.
As the others left in a flash, the man in white looked at the man in fancy clothes who had been silent for a long time. "Cousin, have you thought of anything? I noticed that you looked a little strange from a while ago."
“…It’s not a big deal.”
The man in the gorgeous clothes kept thinking about the face of the young man he had just seen. He always felt that he seemed to have seen that young man somewhere, but after a rough review of his vague memory, he could not find any clues.
It may be that the interval is too long, the past memories have disappeared, and there is no trace of them.
That face looks really familiar, but why can't I remember where I've seen it?
Is it an illusion?
Good-looking people all have something in common. Maybe it was because the boy was so good-looking that he felt familiar.
He couldn't remember what was so familiar about him, and could only attribute it to the fact that Yan Cheng was too handsome, so handsome that he could never forget him after seeing him once.
The man in the ornate clothes said one sentence and then stopped talking, so the man in the blue clothes stopped asking questions.
"Cousin, are you going to send your nephew to the capital?"
After hearing what he said, the man in fancy clothes completely let go of the strange feeling he had just had, rubbed the exquisitely patterned teacup in his hand, and smiled bitterly.
"What else can I do? He asked me to send the child to the capital, how could I refuse? How could I refuse?"
"He said he wanted to take my nephew and his family to the capital to study, but everyone knows how narrow-minded and vigilant he is. Sending my nephew to the capital would be like sending him as a hostage. Cousin, you only have my nephew as your son."
"What can I do?"
"Why not find someone to replace my cousin?"
"No way." The man in the finery calmed himself down. "Many people in the palace have seen Zhao Xing. If he's fake, he'll be exposed. Besides, he won't give me this chance."
