Xuanji only thought for a moment, then walked to the row of bookshelves on Guo Shouhuai's left hand side, pulled out a book from it, and handed it to Guo Shouhuai's hands.
The latter glanced at the title of the book - "Xilin Miscellaneous Notes".
In other words, this book is a miscellany written by a senior with the name Xilin. However, just from the name, it is not clear that it has anything to do with the secret realm.
So when Guo Shouhuai scanned this book before, he didn't pay much attention to it and simply ignored it.
But at this time, he heard Xuanji whisper, "Page 32 and page 17 both have descriptions of the secret realm."
After hearing this, Guo Shouhuai turned to the corresponding page in "Xilin Miscellaneous Notes" as Xuanji said, and sure enough he saw records related to the secret realm on it.
Then Xuanji took down another book from the third shelf, then walked to the second row of bookshelves, took down three more books, and handed them all to Guo Shouhuai...
When Yu Qiuren hurried back from outside carrying two baskets of steamed buns and four plates of side dishes, he saw a scene that stunned him.
Xuanji was standing on tiptoes in front of the bookshelf, picking out books, while Lu Jing was following her with a stack of books in his arms.
If it was just like this, forget it. The key point is that Guo Shouhuai, the young eunuch of Si Tianjian, came down from upstairs at some point and was sitting not far away from them, immersed in reading.
"Senior brother, you are back," Lu Jing said hello to Yu Qiuren after seeing him, then moved the pile of books in his hand to Guo Shouhuai and said to the latter, "The food is here, let's have some together." Bar."
Hearing this, Guo Shouhuai nodded and said, closing the book in his hand, "Okay, I happen to be a little hungry, but do you have enough food?"
"Enough, enough...if it's not enough, I can buy more." Yu Qiuren opened the food box in his hand as he spoke, "This box belongs to you, Mr. Young Supervisor."
"No, just let's eat together." Guo Shouhuai said while calling Xuanji who was not far away, "Come on, these steamed buns are quite warm."
Yu Qiuren was worried that Xuanji's hand would be exposed, so she quickly winked at Lu Jing and asked Lu Jing to find a way to stop it, but Lu Jing just shook his head slightly at him.
Before Yu Qiuren could do anything else, he heard Guo Shouhuai's voice again, "You two, stop winking and come and eat."
After hearing this, Yu Qiuren broke out in a cold sweat on his back. He came to the table in a daze and didn't know how to proceed. When he came to his senses again, he had already picked up the chopsticks with one hand, but then he Thinking of something, he suddenly spoke.
"According to the rules of the academy, meals are not allowed in the library."
When Guo Shouhuai heard this, he didn't take back the hand holding the bun. He just glanced sideways at Yu Qiuren and said angrily, "You have the nerve to tell me about the academy rules!"
Yu Qiuren was a little confused when he saw Xuanji suddenly kneeling on the ground and said, "This matter is all the fault of this little girl. I hope Young Supervisor Guo will see clearly and don't blame Mr. Yu."
"pass."
Guo Shouhuai shook his head, took a bite of the mutton steamed bun in his hand and said calmly, "Are you trying to negotiate terms with me just because I can use you now?"
"The little girl didn't have this intention. She just relied on Mr. Yu to take care of her from the day she came to this world. It's hard to repay this kind of kindness. If I hurt Mr. Yu again, it doesn't matter if I can continue to live. meaning."
Although Xuanji's voice was gentle, it was full of determination, "Don't worry, Young Supervisor Guo, I will pick out all the books related to the secret realm for you, and I will go back to the books after all this is done. I just ask that you can be tolerant to Mr. Yu and don’t take away his position as secretary.”
"Although Mr. Yu often complains that there are too many things in the library, I can see that Mr. Yu is also a true lover of books. Over the years he has been in office, he has always kept the library in order, and the books here are also It was well kept by him and had never been exposed to moisture or fire.
"It's easy for you to get rid of him, but if you want to find someone who loves books so sincerely to replace him, I'm afraid it won't be that simple."
"That's not necessarily true," Guo Shouhuai said disapprovingly. "It's hard to find masters in this world, but there are quite a few nerds who only deal with books. It's not that difficult to find, and I actually already have a candidate in mind." .”
"It doesn't really matter whether I want to be this secretary or not. The world is so big, I can always find something to do to make a living." Yu Qiuren, who had been silent before, suddenly said with a wry smile.
As he said this, he already took out his badge, put it on the table, and then handed it over.
"I just hope that you, Mr. Guo, can keep Xuanji. She was born from a book. She has a simple mind and has never done any evil. Moreover, she cannot leave this library and is harmless to the world. According to the rules of the department, such spooky There is no need to get rid of things.”
"Are you planning to sing a drama about fateful mandarin ducks together for me?"
Guo Shouhuai finally finished eating the steamed bun in his hand, wiped his mouth, and then raised his eyes to look at Yu Qiuren and Xuanji again.
Yu Qiuren was about to defend the relationship between the two, but was stopped by Guo Shouhuai with a wave of his hand. Then he grabbed Guo Shouhuai's waist card and said to the latter, "Do you still remember Si Tianjian's rules?"
"Remember," Yu Qiuren nodded, "If you are expelled from Si Tianjian by mistake, you will lose your secret power. At the same time, you are not allowed to mention the existence of Si Tianjian and the strange things to anyone outside the department."
"It's not that serious. After all, you have been a secretary in the library for such a long time. You have to work hard even if you don't have any credit. So this time, even if you leave on your own initiative, you don't have to waste your secret power. Just remember to keep it secret." , even to your beloved relatives and friends, you can’t talk about your experience here, is it possible?”
Yu Qiuren nodded again.
Xuanji became anxious when she saw this, and opened her mouth to say something, but Guo Shouhuai ignored her at all, so in the end Xuanji gritted her teeth and suddenly rushed towards a window on the side.
But after taking two steps, Lu Jing stopped him and sighed, "Why do you have to do this?"
"All of this happened because of me," Xuanji looked more excited than ever before, "I made Mr. Yu leave here!"
When she said this, Guo Shouhuai on the side took over what she said.
"You're right. You can't escape from this matter, so you have to be punished. Well... I'll punish you to manage this library for Yu Qiuren. For a period... I haven't thought about the period yet. Anyway, You do it first."
"I won't do it," Xuanji refused without hesitation, "Master Guo is the young eunuch of the Si Tianjian, and he is in charge of all the people in the Si Tianjian. It is conceivable that he can't control the person in the book like me."
"Indeed," Guo Shouhuai nodded, "Although you can't beat me, it's still easy to die. Just wait for me to leave and jump out of any door or window. But after I've punished Yu Qiu and you, there are still No one was punished."
