Chapter 100: A Chance Encounter

Weekend.

The streets are not very spacious, and there is a lot of traffic coming and going.

Five days a week of work and study, and on weekends, a large number of people were finally able to spare time to visit the mall and wander around the shops.

Di Di –

At a roundabout street intersection, the middle-aged driver of a small car slapped his horn vigorously, looking at the flow of people slowly walking on the sidewalk in front of him, and his face showed a somewhat anxious look.

The two young and beautiful figures walking on the street heard the sound of the horn, first waved to the middle-aged driver on the tricycle, and then trotted across the street holding hands and grinning.

"It's good to be young!"

The driver of the car looked at the back of the energetic girl, his anxious mood seemed to be dispelled a little, the corners of his mouth hooked a smile, slowly released the brakes, and slowly walked through the narrow street.

"Yuting, let's go shopping, why did you pull me to the bookstore?"

In front of Huaxin Bookstore, Guan Shanni, who was dressed in a cool dress and full of youthful atmosphere, pursed her lips and stared at Jiao Yuting who was walking in front of her with some jealousy.

The two slender and good-looking long legs dangled in front of her so much that she felt that going out shopping with this good friend was simply a big green leaf foil.

"I just want to read a book!"

Jiao Yuting turned her head with a smile, dressed in a simple T-shirt and hot pants, with a slender figure, and full of vitality, walking on the street is very eye-catching.

"Hmph—you think I'll believe it!" Guan Shanni looked suspicious, "I've been at the same table with you since junior high school, I don't know you yet, when did you become so studious...... You're an Iron Maiden who can run a basketball court for two hours to train in order to skip school......"

"I can't do it now!" Jiao Yuting was unmoved, and looked at Guan Shanni, who was half a head shorter than her, with a smile, "Let's go, let's go, look back at the clothes, and buy books with me first." ”

Xiushui's Huaxin Bookstore has a total of two floors, although the rapid development of the Internet in recent years, the bookstore has been much worse than before, but the traditional paper reading, after all, will not be replaced in a while.

In particular, some of the more unpopular literature and books, as well as most of the works, are not seen by many people on computers and smartphones through the Internet, and a large part of them still exist in paper form.

Xiushui is a small place without a dedicated county library, and Huaxin Bookstore has basically played this role to some extent since it was settled a few decades ago.

There are naturally not many books compared to big cities, but it is currently the place with the largest collection of books in Xiushui.

"It's really a bit dazzling!"

Entering the Huaxin Bookstore, Guan Shanni thought that there should be few people visiting the bookstore, but it turned out that there were many more people than she thought, adults and children holding a book, sitting or standing, relishing, scratching their ears and cheeks, and all kinds of expressions.

"It doesn't feel bad!"

Jiao Yuting raised her chin lightly, and her ponytail swayed, like a proud little wild horse. The eyes that were as clear as water swept through the crowd of people who were reading from time to time.

"What are you looking for?"

Guan Shanni noticed Jiao Yuting's movements and asked with some curiosity.

"I didn't ...... No......" Jiao Yuting pursed her lips, "I just want to see which side of the latest books on the shelves are placed?" ”

"Oh!?" Guan Shanni casually pulled out a popular youth novel from the bookshelf next to her, and pointed to the bookcase on the other side, "It seems to be over there!" ”

"Well, I see, Sanny, look for yourself, I'll go find the book."

Jiao Yuting smiled and nodded, waved her hand at Guan Shanni again, and jumped out of the other bookshelves with a ponytail and light steps.

……

Bang

The subtle sound of the pages turning around rang out from time to time.

The morning sunlight shines through the huge floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and in the political and economic book classification area of the bookstore, in front of a two-story staircase next to the floor-to-ceiling bed, a teenager is holding a thick tome, frowning slightly and turning the pages.

By the boy's side, he also visited books on basic politics and literature and history, which were also like bricks, and the sun fell on the boy's back, and the golden rendering was like a painting.

Jiao Yuting quietly took out her mobile phone and took two photos, before she put away her mobile phone with some satisfaction, tiptoed to the young man's side, and stretched out her hand to pat the other party's shoulder.

But as soon as the hand was stretched out, suddenly I felt a pain in my wrist, and my wrist was tightly clasped.

"Ahh A soft cry rang out.

Pei Chu suddenly came back to his senses, only to notice Jiao Yuting who was grabbed by his wrist, and immediately let go of his hand.

"Hey, Pei Chu, what are you doing?!"

Jiao Yuting withdrew her wrist and rubbed it gently, looking at Pei Chu with an innocent expression.

"I'm sorry!" Pei Chu put down the tome in his hand, stood up and said a little embarrassed, "I didn't notice anyone just now!" ”

As he spoke, Pei Chu raised his right hand slightly and waved it, saying helplessly, "It's purely a subconscious natural reaction." ”

He had just become too obsessed with the contents of books, and he was not always vigilant in places like bookstores. Jiao Yuting's sudden approach at this moment was completely a sudden self-protective reaction.

"Okay!" Jiao Yuting pursed her lips, glanced at a few books beside Pei Chu again, and asked with some curiosity, "Why don't you read here on the weekend?" This one...... It seems a bit esoteric! ”

"Just flip through it!" Pei Chu smiled, "Why is it so coincidental that you also come to the bookstore?" ”

"Yes! What a coincidence! Jiao Yuting blinked her eyes slightly, and then said with some slurring, "That...... I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you, I'm not familiar with them......"

"Trouble?" Pei Chu was slightly stunned, and it took a long time before he seemed to recall what Jiao Yuting said, and suddenly smiled, "It's okay, if you don't say it, I'll forget it, it's not a big deal......"

"But I'll still give you ......" Jiao Yuting bit her lip lightly, and her clear eyes became brighter and brighter.

She and Pei Chu are not familiar with each other, but after learning that Pei Chu and the boys on the basketball team had a few fights, their impressions will be more or less different.

After accidentally seeing Pei Chu enter Huaxin Bookstore yesterday, she came here on the street with her good friend today, in fact, she was trying her luck, and she really met again.

"Yuting, where are you here? Can you go? ”

At this moment, Guan Shanni's figure appeared behind the bookshelf next to him, looking at Pei Chu with curiosity, and then at Jiao Yuting.

"My friend is calling me, see you later!" Jiao Yuting smiled at Pei Chu, then turned around and walked towards Guan Shanni with her long legs.

"Well, see you later!"

Pei Chu responded, a little strangely at the appearance of this long-legged vitality basketball girl, but he didn't care, and was ready to continue to lower his head and flip through the books.

Since he began to enter the dream world, he has not been addicted to online games as before, and his whole mentality seems to have changed rapidly and matured.

It seems that the questions that some young people were thinking about at this age suddenly seemed to be crossed by him, and he began to want to know more about people and society, people and the world.

He had just pored over a large foreign work on the structure of human society, a book that he once felt he might not be able to read or understand thoroughly, but now he felt a little relish when he chewed it.

After leaving the dream world, he was soaked in the library in the world for the past few days when he woke up, he was not smart, his age and experience limited him, but Pei Chu knew very well that he had an endless treasure trove to arm his mind in the real world.

The relationship between the extraordinary and the ordinary, the structure of society, between people, classes and classes.

In reality, he has only been a week now, but in the dream world, Pei Chu has experienced almost half a year. In the past six months, the dream journey, or the life in the alien world, has made him have a huge change in his understanding of the world.

He remembered that he had said to Lu Xiping that he would suppress extraordinary things, and he had been practicing it in that world, but continuous learning and thinking were also an indispensable part.

Strength is the true meaning, but after this power, there are countless problems involved, and he has not yet looked at it from such a height, but he doesn't want to become completely one-sided.

Pei Chu sat back in his original position, picked up a tome, and continued with a slight flip book.
