Since being helped by the mysterious female disciple that day, Yu Jiuchen has almost become a frequent visitor to Cangxing Pavilion.
But after coming several times, he didn't meet the woman again.
Isn’t he a disciple of Si Xingjian?
But that's impossible. If you are not from the Star Supervisor, you won't understand anything even if you read the books here.
The books in the Star Cang Pavilion are all classics that can only be understood by astrologers. They are completely different from the ordinary sage scriptures. It is useless even if you want to learn from them.
However, it was obvious that the woman that night was a frequent reader of the Cangxing Pavilion, and she knew the layout of the books in the pavilion like the back of her hand.
So Yu Jiuchen quickly dispelled the idea that the other party was an outsider.
He thought that since she was a girl who loved reading and quietness, she might like to read at night when there were few people around, just like that night.
As expected.
Today he deliberately waited until very late before coming here, but he didn't expect to actually meet her.
He still didn't see the other person, but he discovered someone through the gap between the books.
The white clothes of the non-Si Xingjian disciple easily betrayed the other party.
Yu Jiuchen was afraid that if he went up to say hello directly, it would be rude to the other person.
So he began to pretend to be in trouble, muttering to himself: "The Star Sea Classic...where is the Star Sea Classic?"
"It's on the bookshelf on your right, the second to last row, the third to last book." The other party's voice was as pleasant as ever.
Yu Jiuchen smiled behind her back, and then he really found the book: "Thank you, Junior Sister."
"Junior sister?" I heard the other party say in a low voice.
Yu Jiuchen also asked suspiciously: "Aren't you from the Star Supervisor?"
Hearing this, Su Changzhao realized that she had spoken out what was in her heart. Perhaps because she had been alone for too long, she often talked to herself.
She already looked weird enough, and with the added problem of talking to herself, she was sure to be disliked.
The key point is, if she doesn't explain quickly, she might be caught as a thief, and then she will be in trouble.
So he quickly said, "No, I am!"
Yu Jiuchen smiled again: "Then it's over? You must be the new junior sister, right?"
"…How do you know?"
"Otherwise, how could you not recognize me?"
Although Su Changzhao has been in Si Xing Jian for more than ten years, she has been living in isolation from the world. She has never paid attention to who is in Si Xing Jian. Apart from her master, no one knows of her existence over the years.
Today was the first time that I spoke so much to someone other than my master, and it felt incredibly magical.
Su Changzhao's heartbeat quickened, he was excited and nervous: "...Well, I'm new here, Senior...Brother...Can I call you that?"
"Hehe, why are you stuttering all of a sudden?"
Su Changzhao: “…”
"Don't be afraid, my name is Yu Jiuchen, I'm the eldest senior brother, I will protect you."
"……Thanks."
As they chatted, Yu Jiuchen felt that the two of them were quite interesting and they could even have a conversation just over a bookshelf.
So he hurried over to the other side and asked, "By the way, what's your name?"
But just as he got there, the other party went around to the other side.
They were separated by a bookshelf.
Yu Jiuchen thought that this new junior sister was shy, so he didn't go around her.
But when I was waiting for the other party to answer, I found that there was no response after waiting for a long time.
"Hey...are you still there?"
When he went around, he found that there was no one there again.
"Heh~" Yu Jiuchen smiled speechlessly: "Are you so shy?"
Then.
The next few days.
He was somehow led to find this mysterious and shy little sister.
One day, when he went out, he ran into Junior Sister Xu, Xu Zitang, who came to bring him bird's nest.
"Big Brother, where are you going?"
"I'm going to the Hidden Star Pavilion."
“Bird’s nest!”
"Put it in the house. I'll come back and drink it."
"But..." Xu Zitang didn't finish her words, Yu Jiuchen had already run away, so she just finished speaking: "If you don't take advantage of the heat, it will get cold."
Looking at Yu Jiuchen's hurriedly leaving back, Xu Zitang asked suspiciously: "Going to Cangxing Pavilion so late? When did Senior Brother become so diligent?"
·
Hidden Star Pavilion.
Yu Jiuchen was looking for someone as soon as he came in.
Next to a bookshelf, I saw the white figure again.
His handsome face lit up with joy, and he walked around the other person with a smile, pretending again that he couldn't find the book.
"Oh, there are too many books here. It's hard to find them..."
The next second, a voice came from behind the bookshelf behind him.
"What are you looking for?" Su Changzhao's voice.
"Oh, you're here too?" Yu Jiuchen pretended to have just noticed her.
"...Yeah." Su Changzhao sounded a little nervous: "What book are you looking for?"
Yu Jiuchen was just pretending in the beginning, but seeing that the other party took it seriously, he had to continue to smooth things over, otherwise he would be exposed.
"Oh, I'm looking for... "The Star Washing Record"..."
It was just a casual remark, but the next second, a corner of a book stretched out from the bookshelf: "Here, how about... you read it first?"
Su Changzhao was thinking that she had plenty of time anyway, unlike the other party, who was the senior brother and must be very busy. He would not be like her who could visit him anytime.
Yu Jiuchen stared at a corner of the book and was stunned for a moment: "Is it okay?"
"Well, I'm not in a hurry. If you want to see it, take it first."
Su Changzhao stretched the book a little further.
Yu Jiuchen, however, stared at the corner of the book and had evil thoughts in his mind. He hadn't seen the other person's appearance for so many days.
Maybe this will be an opportunity!
"Oh no! This bookshelf is going to fall down, come and help!" Yu Jiuchen suddenly shouted.
Su Changzhao immediately ran over to lend a hand, but as soon as she pushed the shaky bookshelf back, she immediately remembered that she had been seen by the other party.
Turning my head, sure enough -
I saw a handsome young man in front of me, who looked like a jade, and he asked in surprise, "Are you the female ghost covered in bandages in the rumors?"
“…”
I could tell that the other person didn't seem to be afraid of me.
Su Changzhao couldn't help but feel that what his master said was not entirely right.
But when I reacted, the other party said that she was a female ghost!
"You...are you polite?" He turned his back and said, "What do you mean by overgrown? She is wrapped in gauze all day and cannot go out freely during the day. She is already pitiful enough."
Su Changzhao squatted on the ground and drew circles.
Yu Jiuchen realized that he had spoken out of turn: "...I'm sorry!"
He walked over and was about to comfort the other person.
Unexpectedly, Su Changzhao stood up, turned around, and looked at him with his face wrapped in gauze, through which only a mouth and two eyeballs could be seen.
"This is the first time someone has apologized to me and said so many words to me. I won't be angry with you anymore." He said in a generous tone.
"..." Yu Jiuchen stared into her beautiful peach eyes: "You... don't have any friends?"
Su Changzhao shook his head: "So...can I come to play with you often in the future?"
Yu Jiuchen: "Of course, if we can discuss astrology with each other."
Su Changzhao: "Of course, it's a deal!"
Su Changzhao seemed to be smiling, and when Yu Jiuchen saw her eyes, he actually thought that this strange girl wrapped in bandages was very cute.
From then on, they became close friends who could talk about anything.
But soon, this matter was discovered by Xu Zitang who followed Yu Jiuchen...
