Guo Shouhuai knew about the relationship between Lu Jing and Xia Huai. Of course, it is more accurate to say that Guo Shouhuai knew about the relationship between her and Lu Jing because he cared about Xia Huai.
Unexpectedly, he turned around and ran into Lu Jing and another woman in the library. Although the behavior between the two was not too close, Lu Jing even took her with him when he came to the library to sort out books, and even talked to her Studying together how to cultivate secret power, this relationship cannot be simple no matter how you look at it.
However, Guo Shouhuai despised Lu Jing in his heart. As a young eunuch of Si Tianjian, he naturally couldn't get involved in any love triangle. But just when he looked at Xuanji, he had a new idea. Discover.
"what happened to your hand?"
Guo Shouhuai noticed that Xuanji's right hand had been tucked into her sleeve and had never been stretched out, so he asked.
"Oh, I got burned when I was making tea." Xuanji had to lie again.
"Yeah, hold out your hand."
Xuanji's heart trembled when she heard this. She thought that Guo Shouhuai had begun to doubt her, but then she heard the other party continue, "I can help you ice it."
Xuanji was a little dumbfounded and wanted to refuse, but she couldn't find any excuse for the moment.
Seeing this, Guo Shouhuai said again, "Don't worry, it's just a small spell, it's quick, and I won't touch your hand."
"I'll do it, Mr. Guo, don't you have something important to do?"
At this critical moment, it was Yu Qiuren who came to the rescue again, but Guo Shouhuai didn't insist anymore after hearing this, and nodded, "Okay, you help her deal with it, I'll go up and read a book first."
After speaking, Guo Shouhuai ignored the three of them and walked toward the forbidden book area on the top floor.
When he went upstairs, the three of them also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although it didn't last long, just a few sentences, the thrills involved were no worse than a fierce battle.
And the three of them also knew that the danger had not passed.
Since Xuanji is a person in the book and cannot leave the library, they must stay here until Guo Shouhuai returns.
It would be fine if Guo Shouhuai only stayed for an hour or two, but if he stayed for a long time, such as until late at night, he would definitely be suspicious when he went downstairs and saw Xuanji still there.
"No." Xuanji shook her head and whispered, "I can't hide it. Even if I hide it this time, if Guo Shaojian comes to see me and I'm still in the building next time, he will definitely guess something."
Both Lu Jing and Yu Qiuren knew that Xuanji was telling the truth.
But seeing that he had come to this point, Yu Qiuren didn't want to give up here. You must know that today may be the most daring day in his life.
Playing tricks under Guo Shouhuai's nose was something he would never dare to think about before, let alone asking for a salary increase face to face with his immediate boss.
Yu Qiuren felt that he was now fearless, so he said, "Don't be afraid, we can always discuss a solution." After saying that, he patted his chest and said, "As long as I, Yu Qiuren, am here as a As a secretary, I will definitely not let you go back to the book."
However, although his words sounded nice, the next three people still couldn't find any effective way to completely dispel Guo Shouhuai's suspicion of Xuanji.
And as time went by, what the three of them were most worried about also happened.
Until the sun was about to set below the mountain, Guo Shouhuai on the top floor of the library still did not come downstairs.
It seems that the young eunuch of Si Tianjian really encountered some difficult problems this time.
After waiting for a while, Xuanji and Yu Qiuren's stomachs began to growl. Lu Jing was slightly better. After all, he was a first-class expert and his tolerance for hunger was much stronger than ordinary people. But when meal time comes, I still want to eat.
Seeing that Guo Shouhuai would not come down, Yu Qiuren also put down the book in his hand that he had no intention of reading, stood up and said, "I'll go to the restaurant to buy something to eat."
Xuanji was worried that Guo Shouhuai would come downstairs when Yu Qiuren left, so she said, "I'm not too hungry yet, I can wait a little longer."
However, Lu Jing on the side shook his head, "We can't wait. The longer we wait, the more suspicious we become."
Yu Qiuren nodded and patted his butt, "That's the truth. I'm quick and come back as soon as I go. There has been no movement from Young Supervisor Guo for so long, so it shouldn't be such a coincidence."
"Okay then." Xuanji heard this and no longer stopped her.
However, I don't know if Yu Qiuren has been having bad luck recently, but his crow's mouth actually came true. As soon as he went out, Guo Shouhuai came down from upstairs.
Seeing Lu Jing and Xuanji still there, he was startled, "You haven't left yet?"
Lu Jing raised the book "Secret Power Awakens to the Truth" in his hand, "I am so fascinated by this book."
However, in fact, Lu Jing did not dare to read a word in this book because he was afraid that the secret power would appear in his body for no reason.
Fortunately, Guo Shouhuai didn't care about him and Xuanji's affairs at the moment. He just asked casually and then said, "Where is Yu Qiuren?"
"Oh, he went to buy food for the evening." Lu Jing replied.
Guo Shouhuai frowned when he heard this, but didn't say anything. He just walked to a row of bookshelves minding his own business.
Looking at him like this, he seemed to be looking for a book here.
Because of the existence of that strange thing, it is very easy and simple to find books in the library. You just need to get rid of distracting thoughts and recite the name of the book silently in your mind, and the book will fly to you.
Of course, sometimes things don't go so smoothly.
For example, if the person looking for a book doesn't know which book he is looking for, then naturally he will not be able to use the ability of that strange object.
This is what Guo Shouhuai looks like now. He picked up a book and flipped through it quickly, then put it down again and went to pick up another one, his brows always furrowed.
It wasn't until a moment later that a voice suddenly came from behind him, "You...what book are you looking for?"
But it was Xuanji who summoned up the courage to ask.
Guo Shouhuai did not look back, but said casually, "Oh, you don't need to worry about me."
"Also...maybe I can help you." Xuanji said softly.
Guo Shouhuai seemed a little surprised, but finally turned around, raised his eyebrows and said, "How can you help me?"
"I read very quickly and have a photographic memory. I have read most of the books here. As long as you tell me what you are looking for, I can find it for you."
Lu Jing wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
This freshmen class has only been in the academy for less than three months. Even if they read one book a day, they have only read a hundred books. Compared with the hundreds of thousands of books in the library, it is only a drop in the bucket. How can it be possible? Most of them have seen it.
Guo Shouhuai's eyes flashed with gleam when he heard this, but unexpectedly, he did not question Xuanji. Instead, he said, "Okay, I'm looking for a book related to the secret realm."
