Su Qian nodded, "Yeah, where's your boss?"
Ever since Yan Xuanye brought a group of people to Zhang Yuncheng's bookstore to look for her, everyone knew her identity.
Compared to the last time she came, the waiter was many times more enthusiastic.
"The weather is nice today. Boss Zhang is drying his books in the backyard."
"Then I'll go find him."
"Oh right." Su Qian pretended to be surprised and said, "I asked someone to bring some cool and thirst-quenching milk tea from the mansion. You can try it too."
The waiter paused for a moment, as if he didn't expect her to be so generous, and then he thanked her excitedly.
From his eyes, Su Qian could see that besides his curiosity and agreement, there was also some inquiry.
He was curious about what kind of drink it was, but he was too embarrassed to ask in front of her.
This was a normal reaction of ancient people when faced with new things. Su Qian took it to heart and walked towards the backyard.
…
The backyard was not very big. Zhang Yuncheng was holding a feather duster in his hand, bending over and gently sweeping the dust off the books.
"Boss Zhang."
Zhang Yuncheng raised his head and smiled gracefully, "It's Miss Su. Are you here to read again today?"
"These days, you've almost become a regular customer of my bookstore. You're the only one willing to come to my bookstore. It's such an honor."
Su Qian: "Yes, I thought we were friends now, so I brought you some food from home."
"Give me some face and try it together?"
Zhang Yuncheng: "I will obey your orders."
"Miss Su, please find a place to sit first. Zhang will be here soon."
Su Qian: "Okay."
…
Su Qian sat for a while, and then Zhang Yuncheng came.
He seemed to be quite clever, with beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.
Su Qian thought for a moment, then took out her silk handkerchief from her embroidered robe and handed it to him, "Wipe the sweat off."
It's not that she has any improper thoughts about Zhang Yuncheng, but she just wants to get close to Zhang Yuncheng through this action and let him let down his guard.
Su Qian put herself in their shoes. If it were her, and someone suddenly came up to her and tested whether she was a time traveler, she would keep her mouth shut and would not rush to reveal the matter.
Therefore, she can only proceed step by step and not be too hasty. It would be bad if she rushes into things and ends up making things worse.
Zhang Yuncheng said, retreating and refusing, "How dare you use Miss Su's handkerchief?"
He lifted his sleeve and said, "I can do it myself."
Su Qian took back the handkerchief and said, "Okay."
"Actually, I came here today because I have a few questions I don't understand, and I wanted to ask Master Zhang for advice. But I didn't want to disturb Master Zhang while he was reading, so I brought some snacks and fruits from home to apologize. Please enjoy them, Master Zhang."
Su Qian deliberately made this excuse to Bai Ying who was beside her.
Last time, Yan Xuanye told her that if she didn’t want to take Lu Feng out, she must take Bai Ying with her.
Su Qian knew that even if Lu Feng was not following her, he must be watching her somewhere in secret. Otherwise, how could it be explained that Yan Xuanye was able to clearly know that she was in this bookstore last time?
The reason she wanted Bai Ying to be by her side was simply because she wanted someone to supervise her and report everything she said and did to Yan Xuanye.
Zhang Yuncheng smiled and said, "Miss Su, why are you so polite? You and I are destined to be together. Even if I don't have these material possessions, I am willing to answer your questions."
Su Qian also smiled, but there was not much smile in her eyes. She observed his movements and reactions when he drank milk tea.
As she expected, when Zhang Yuncheng opened the lunch box and saw the bowl of milk tea, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, and then he quickly hid it.
"What is this?" he asked.
Su Qian said, "This is called milk tea. It was made by my maid. I think it's quite drinkable, so I brought it here for Master Zhang to try."
"It tastes very good. I wonder what the maid's name is? Could you introduce her to me, Zhang?"
Su Qian pretended to be surprised: "Why is this?"
"That's right." Zhang Yuncheng put down the bowl. "I think my mother would like this drink. It's her birthday soon, and I want to learn how to make it for her to try as a token of my filial respect."
"So that's how it is." Su Qian spoke as he seemed to be thinking about something.
She originally thought his expression was a little strange, and she almost believed that Zhang Yuncheng was a time traveler, but his words were flawless and there was nothing wrong with them.
"It was made by one of my cooks, but she was in a hurry today. How about next time... I'll ask her to bring the necessary ingredients and recipes, and then bring her along?"
Zhang Yuncheng stood up and bowed to her solemnly, "Thank you very much, Miss Su."
Su Qian's smile was a little forced at this moment, "You're welcome."
Then, Su Qian quickly calmed down and continued talking with him, and the conversation ended in the evening.
On the way back, Su Qian leaned dejectedly against the inner wall of the carriage, reviewing the conversation she had just had with Zhang Yuncheng.
I don’t know if it’s because I expected too much, so I was disappointed more often.
She tested him several times during the meal but couldn't see any major problems. It was just that Zhang Yuncheng seemed a little unnatural in some subtle expressions.
It seems that verifying this matter will not be resolved in a day or two.
Just when she was feeling lost, a cold and familiar electronic voice suddenly rang in her ears.
"Host."
Su Qian raised her lazy eyes in an instant, and her eyes instantly became sharp, "System?"
The system lost its playful smile in front of Lu Huan and now seemed very serious. "It's me."
