Protagonist:

Yan Qianqian

After their gazes met, the two understood each other tacitly and walked straight toward the bookshelf behind them.

The books on the shelf behind were more diverse, some collecting poems, paintings, and other literary works by contemporary scholars.

However, for Qianqian, these held little appeal. Luo Shun, on the other hand, was quite interested in these books; he stopped and picked up a few to flip through.

Qianqian found it a bit boring, so she decided to continue walking inward. After walking a bit farther inside, she discovered a bookshelf filled with all kinds of travelogues.

These travelogues covered the local customs and traditions of different countries, including Xishang travelogues, Dachang travelogues, Beilin travelogues, and so on.

Qianqian developed a slight interest in the books on this shelf and began selecting among them.

Among the many travelogues, Qianqian finally chose one about Beilin Kingdom.

This travelogue was part of a series that detailed the various cities of Beilin Kingdom. Each city had its own dedicated travelogue, which Qianqian found quite novel.

Actually, what Qianqian most wanted to learn about was Xishang Kingdom, but then she thought, she was currently in Xishang Kingdom, and if she bought a travelogue about Xishang Kingdom, it might arouse others' suspicion.

After all, a person from Xishang Kingdom's understanding of their own country should be fairly deep, and they wouldn't need to obtain information by buying travelogues.,

After much careful consideration, Qianqian finally decided to casually pick one from the Beilin Kingdom bookshelf, then select one from the Dongying bookshelf. Thus, she held two books in her hands and slowly walked toward the last bookshelf.

When she stood before the last bookshelf, she couldn't help but be stunned by the sight before her.

This bookshelf was densely packed with all kinds of picture books, dazzling to the eye.

Qianqian curiously scanned these picture books, when suddenly her gaze was caught by the author's name on a few of the books—Bailu.

Seeing this name, Qianqian almost laughed out loud.

She secretly marveled in her heart that Second Brother's business was actually so widespread that even Xishang Kingdom had his customers. However, this also made Qianqian feel a bit close, after all these picture books were all written by hand by Third Elder Sister.

Qianqian carefully examined Third Elder Sister's works and found that she had read these few books before.

Even so, she still selected one she particularly liked from among them. Because at this moment she was in a foreign land, far from home and relatives, these picture books seemed to become a connection between her and Third Elder Sister, making her feel the warmth of home.

Qianqian couldn't help but wonder what Third Elder Sister was doing now? She hadn't gone to visit her for almost two months, surely she must miss her too.

As for Second Brother, he was probably busy expanding his business territory, but he surely was thinking of her at all times.

As for Mother and Father, needless to say, their care and longing for her were surely increasing day by day.,

Qianqian's nose suddenly felt a bit sour; she held back her tears and casually picked up two picture books written by Third Elder Sister from the bookshelf.

Then, from among the many picture books, she selected three written by others, after all different authors had different styles, perhaps there would be some particularly interesting content.

Qianqian picked up one of the picture books; just as she opened it, her hand trembled as if shocked by electricity, and that picture book fell to the floor with a "pa da" sound.

Qianqian was greatly startled; she hurriedly and flusteredly picked up the book, carefully looked at the cover, and confirmed she hadn't seen wrong.

"My goodness!" Qianqian couldn't help but silently complain in her heart, "Just who wrote this? A Ren't they too bold!"

Only to see that on the book cover was drawn a man with a cold and stern face, his ink-black hair like a waterfall, a black robe making him look incomparably cold and stern.

Beside him was drawn a woman in white holding a scroll, the woman's appearance beautiful, pure and transcendent.

And what Qianqian found most amusing was that the title of this book was actually called "The Cold-Stern General and the Aristocratic Young Lady: Those Matters".

Qianqian couldn't help but laugh out loud; although the man drawn on the cover was not the Zhenxi General, after she casually flipped two pages, she found the story in the book was clearly created with the Zhenxi General as its prototype.

Qianqian held this book tightly in her hand, then looked at the other few picture books. Upon looking, she discovered that there were actually quite a few picture books written about the Zhenxi General!

Qianqian carefully selected at the bookshelf for quite a while, finally choosing three books she was particularly interested in, preparing to go to the cashier counter to pay. After all, her hands were only so big; taking a few more would really be too much to hold.

Qianqian turned to walk back, but unexpectedly saw Luo Shun not far away, holding several books in his hands, hesitating and fretting.

Qianqian, seeing this, couldn't help but walk forward and curiously ask: "Have you chosen?"

Luo Shun heard the voice, raised his head, saw it was Qianqian, hesitated for a moment, and finally put the two books in his hand back on the bookshelf, saying with a face full of reluctance: "Let's go."

Qianqian, seeing this, became even more curious and pressed: "Why didn't you buy those two?"

Luo Shun sighed and explained: "The books I bought are already quite a few; I'm afraid they'll exceed my budget. I'll wait until next month's salary arrives to buy them."

Qianqian, hearing this, laughed and teased: "Weren't you given twenty taels? Why are you still afraid of overspending?"

Luo Shun scratched his head a bit embarrassedly and said: "I need to save some money, to use later for marrying a wife; I can't be too extravagant."

Qianqian, hearing this, laughed even harder; she said dismissively: "It's just two books, what counts as extravagant? Come on, these two books are my gift to you!"

After speaking, she casually picked up the two books Luo Shun had just put back on the bookshelf.

Luo Shun, seeing this, hurriedly waved his hands and said: "No, no, Ming'an Eldest Brother, how could this be! All the expenses yesterday were paid with your money; I've already taken too much advantage of you, we absolutely cannot do this again!".

Qianqian smiled at Luo Shun and said softly: "Luo Eldest Brother, if one day I encounter difficulties and need your help, would you unhesitatingly lend a hand?"

Luo Shun hesitated not at all; his gaze was firm and sincere, and he answered without hesitation: "Of course! We are brothers, after all; whatever difficulties you have, I will definitely help you!"

Qianqian nodded with satisfaction, the smile at the corner of her mouth becoming even brighter: "Then that's settled! Since we are brothers, giving you some things is only natural.

Consider this my early investment in you; later there may be many places where I need your help!"
