I became the Prime Minister's Adored Wife after Transmigrating - Chapter 137

137 What Heaven-Defying Luck Is This!

“It’s you?” After seeing who it was, Ji Zhao returned a polite smile.

“Miss Ji, you still remember me?” Joy flashed across Qin Minghong’s eyes. “I’m really flattered!”

“Do you have to be so dramatic?” Ji Zhao scratched her head silently and muttered softly.

Was the owner of Octagonal Guests so friendly?

!!
“Miss Ji, a purposeful invitation can’t beat a meeting by chance. I wonder if you can do me the honor of tasting some tea with me?” Qin Minghong smiled generously and invited her openly.

Ji Zhao smiled and shook her head. Then, she raised the silent Shen Yao’s palm and explained softly, “Thank you for your kindness, but I still have to accompany my husband to the bookstore today!”

Only then did Qin Minghong notice the light blue figure standing beside her.

“I didn’t expect Miss Ji to be married already?” Disappointment quickly flashed across Qin Minghong’s eyes, but it returned to normal in a moment. “Since Miss Ji still has something to do, I’ll take my leave.”

From the beginning to the end, Qin Minghong did not even look at Shen Yao.

Shen Yao did not back down either. His gaze was fixed on Ji Zhao’s face and he did not see Qin Minghong’s face at all.

“Shen Yao, shall we enter the bookstore?” Ji Zhao glanced sideways at the man beside her and smiled sweetly.

Seeing her bright and beautiful smile, the trace of displeasure that lingered in Shen Yao’s heart instantly disappeared.

The Ten Thousand Mile Bookstore was the largest bookstore in Dingyuan County. It had all kinds of books.

History books, the examination questions for the past years, and even storybooks. Not only were they neatly placed on the elm bookshelves, but they were also categorized.

“I want to choose some books for Chenchen. What do you think of the Thousand Character Classic and the Hundred Family Names?” Ji Zhao nudged Shen Yao’s arm with her elbow and asked softly.

“Huh? What did you say?”

Ji Zhao thought for a moment and tiptoed. She leaned close to Shen Yao’s ear and repeated what she had just said.

“You don’t have to buy these two.”

“Why?”

“Because Chenchen already has these two books,” Shen Yao explained softly.

“Huh?” Ji Zhao blinked in confusion, then understood. “You’ve already given Chenchen these two books?”

“Yes.” Shen Yao nodded slightly. “Although Chenchen is not good with words, he has a good memory. As long as I have explained the content once, he can remember it. This is his talent. I think as long as someone can guide him correctly, he will definitely be successful in the future.”

“Really?” Ji Zhao’s eyes instantly lit up with anticipation. “Shen Yao, Chenchen performed so well. As his sister, I have to give him a gift, right? Since you’ve given him these two books, do you have any other suggestions?”

“During this period of time, I’ve been asking Chenchen to write on the sand table. Now that he can write properly, we should prepare brushes and paper for him,” Shen Yao suggested seriously.

“I think it’ll work!” Ji Zhao excitedly went to pick a set of brushes and paper.

When the two of them paid the bill, they were completely stunned.

“Um, can you repeat that again? Your bookstore won’t accept a single cent for the things I bought? You even want to give me six taels? Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake?” Ji Zhao couldn’t believe her ears. Not only did she not have to pay for anything, but she also had to pay?

What kind of heaven-defying luck was this!

“Dear guest, you are the twenty-sixth guest who came to our study today. Therefore, according to the rules of our bookstore, the items you bought today are free of charge! Also, these six taels of silver are our bookstore’s reward.”
