Chapter 908: Chapter 909: Strange Reaction
"Auntie, where else can I find this book?" Chiang Xiao asked.
"You probably can’t find it anymore. I’ve heard that there weren’t many copies printed to begin with, and the only reason we have two is because my dad was interested in it back then. Unless you can find some old folks who are interested in reading, who might be lucky enough to have kept it as a treasure, it’s going to be tough, very tough to find."
Chiang Xiao felt very disappointed at that moment.
"However, if you want it, I’ll give this copy to you. I doubt I could sell it anyway." The auntie stuffed the book into Chiang Xiao’s hands without waiting for her response.
"Then thank you, auntie."
"No need to thank me, just come by more often to buy paints and paper," she said.
At this point, the classmate who had been picking out a friendship book for ages finally came over.
Zheng Ruyi presented two friendship books to Chiang Xiao, "Chiang Xiao, take a look and see which one you like."
Chiang Xiao looked down at the two friendship books, feeling a surge of nostalgia.
In her previous life, during middle school and high school graduations, her classmates would exchange these books, passing them around; she had written in several, but she had never bought one for herself.
The covers of both books in front of her were patterned with flowers, with hard covers. Upon opening them, each page had spaces for filling in names, ages, zodiac signs, and mottos, along with a section for personal messages. The corners featured some patterns and a famous quote.
The two were pretty similar, so Chiang Xiao casually picked one.
"I want two pages!" Zheng Ruyi said to her, "I’ll fill out one page now and another when we graduate from high school."
At that time, taking up an extra page or two in someone’s friendship book was seen as a testament to a deep friendship.
Chiang Xiao smiled and nodded.
That evening, Chiang Xiao was still thinking about the book.
Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao were under Chiang Xiao’s rule not to spend more than five hours preparing tea and snacks, so after dinner, they were generally free, and the three of them would often sit and chat over tea on the rooftop.
The roses on the rooftop had covered the walls, their blooming season lasting a long time, and the swathes of roses were unbelievably beautiful.
But even these vast clusters couldn’t overpower the faint fragrance of the Golden Camellia Tea tree.
In the summer, they also liked to sit next to the Golden Camellia Tea to enjoy the coolness.
"Little, you’ve been daydreaming at dinner today, what’s on your mind?" Chiang Songhai inquired.
Chiang Songhai looked even younger now than he had two years prior. Firstly, he’d put on some weight, which filled out his previously wrinkled skin, and secondly, his hair was dark and thick, his posture upright, his Essence, Qi, and Spirit much improved.
So was Ge Liutao.
She had let her short hair grow out and usually wore it neatly in a bun. Chiang Xiao had bought her a silver hairpin, which she wore on one side of her bun, giving her the appearance of a young, wealthy matron.
Seeing as her grandfather had broached the subject, Chiang Xiao decided to ask about the pen he had found on Bai Gu Mountain many years ago.
"Grandfather, do you really not remember what happened when you picked up that pen in the mountains back then?"
Chiang Songhai hadn’t expected her to bring up this matter after so long and was taken aback.
Previously, Chiang Xiao would not have found his reaction unusual, but this time, she felt that her grandfather’s response was a bit strange.
"Grandfather?"
Not only was Chiang Songhai’s reaction puzzling to her, but Ge Liutao’s reaction was also odd. Upon hearing her question, Ge Liutao had glanced at Chiang Songhai with a hint of worry and anxiety.
"Ah!" Chiang Songhai sighed.
