"I heard Feili say that Brad invited you to the ball, so Gwen Hekmadia, are you still going to hide it from me?" Liesel sat on the chair like a lady, and her voice was transmitted word by word.
into the ears of friends.
Ge Wen glanced ahead, turned her attention to the brown-haired Liesel, and replied:
"Did Philly not tell you that I rejected Brad? Liesel Miles."
Liesel turned a deaf ear to Ge Wen's question, "You just didn't tell me that Brad invited you."
Ge Wen rolled her eyes, "If you like Brad, then go and tell him in person. Anyway, I don't like Brad."
"I didn't." Liesel said loudly.
Ge Wen hurriedly patted her and said, "Keep your voice down, this is the library."
"Huh, what are you afraid of? There's no one around anyway."
Ge Wen quickly gave her a look, and her emerald-like beautiful eyes moved hard to the right.
Liesel looked over and searched for a while before she saw a man's figure in the corner.
After just one glance, Liesel's eyes froze. It wasn't that this man was so handsome and charming, but... he was flipping through the book too fast.
The pages of the book were turning rapidly, one page after another. If she were not far away, she believed that she would be able to hear the sound of turning the book.
Liesel couldn't help lowering her voice:
"What is he doing?"
Ge Wen pursed her lips:
"Perhaps you want to attract my attention."
Liesel narrowed her eyes, stood up and walked towards the man. Ge Wen quickly grabbed her and said hurriedly:
"what are you up to?"
Liesel turned back to look at her friend, narrowed her eyes and smiled and said, "I'm going to invite him to the dance." After saying that, she shook off Ge Wen's hand and walked quickly towards the man who was still flipping through the book.
"Is this how you usually read?" Liesel came to the man's desk and asked, crossing her arms.
Unexpectedly, the other party didn't even look at her, and just replied casually "Yes" without stopping to turn the book.
"Do you like Gwen Hekmadia?" she asked again.
"Gwen Hekmadia...who is she?" the man asked.
Liesel laughed angrily and actually pretended to be in front of her. After thinking about it, she struck a seductive pose and said, "Are you willing to accompany me to a dance?"
The man finally raised his head, not as ecstatic as Liesel imagined, but looking at her impatiently without replying.
The atmosphere was deadlocked for a while. Seeing that the situation was not good, Ge Wen quickly came over and pulled Lizel away while constantly apologizing to the man.
After the two women left, the man lowered his head again and continued to flip through the book.
"What are you apologizing for? We didn't do anything wrong." Liesel shook off Ge Wen's hand again, sulking.
Ge Wen looked at Liezel helplessly, returned to the table and put the books back to their original positions, then turned to Liezel and said:
"Let's go, I made a reservation at the Lan'ao Hotel yesterday, and it's almost time."
A smile suddenly broke out on Liesel's face, she quickly walked over and hugged Ge Wen's arm, said a few nice words, and walked out of the library.
But a huge resistance pulled her back. Liesel turned to look at her friend in confusion, and suddenly saw Ge Wen's emerald eyes, which suddenly turned into a ruby color, no, even more than rubies.
It's deeper, like jewelry stained with blood.
Liesel was inexplicably panicked and lost her mind for a while. When she looked again, she found that Ge Wen's eyes had returned to their previous appearance, with two beautiful emeralds.
She frowned and asked strangely: "Ge Wen, did your eyes... turn red just now?"
Ge Wen was in a daze for a moment, blinked a few times, then came back to her senses, rolled her eyes and replied with a smile: "Red? Haha, I'm not a cat. Stop talking, let's go."
"oh."
Liesel followed absentmindedly.
At the other end, the man who was flipping through books in the corner completely stopped hiding after the two women left. He stood up and waved his hand, and strong winds echoed around him. The books on the tall bookshelf flew off the shelf one after another, and as the wind blew.
Blowing, constantly turning the pages.
For a moment, in the huge library, there was only the sound of books being turned over and the sound of wind whirring around.
This person is none other than the captain of the Black Gold, Fan Luo.
As early as three days ago, Fan Luo came to the city of Xiya. After enjoying the local food, he came to the Xiya Library. There were many people in the library in the past few days. Today and the day after tomorrow are special festivals in Xiya.
He originally thought that no one would come, but he didn't expect that a woman would arrive earlier than him.
And she was still mumbling incomprehensible words, but she didn't know it yet. Her overall temperament was a bit like a nun in a church, but there seemed to be something wrong with this nun.
Later, the woman named Liesel also came.
Fan Luo did not know that the woman was called Ge Wen at first. He blocked his hearing on his own, and it was not until the second woman Liezel came to him that he took the initiative to release it.
The Library of West Asia claims to have a collection of 780,000 books, but according to Loom's statistics, there are no duplicates here. In fact, there are only 310,000 books in total.
In the past few days, he had successively asked the loom to scan and collect more than 2,000 books. The efficiency was very low. If he hadn't known that the locals in West Asia were about to celebrate a national holiday, he would have been prepared to sneak into the library at night.
Fan Luo is not in a hurry. The materials needed for the ceremony are still being searched for and they may not be found in a short time. He has plenty of time to include all the remaining 300,000 books into the chip.
The West Asian Library is open free of charge only at certain times.
Usually you have to apply for a library card and pay the fee before you can come in and read books.
During these days of festivals, no one would come in except for the security guards guarding the gate. Fan Luo could finally use normal means to flip through the books with confidence.
With the loom around, he was not worried that anyone would see this abnormal phenomenon.
Besides, so what if you see it. The extraordinary power of this world is not a secret thing. If it is exposed, it will be exposed. If you are worried about affecting your actions, just let the loom rewrite the memory.
the other side.
Liesel and Ge Wen came to Lanao Hotel and ordered their meals happily, but before the food was served, an uninvited guest arrived.
"Brad Artemi, what are you doing here?" Liesel said coldly.
Ge Wen looked at him with the same displeasure.
Brad Artemi spread his hands, made a decent smile, naturally pulled out his chair and sat on the table,
"This hotel is one of my family's properties. I'm just here to entertain distinguished guests."
"Lano is from the Artemi family?"
"That's right."
"Humph, that's really bad news."
"Lizel, there is no need for you to target me like this. I rejected you because I didn't want to hurt you. You know that I have always liked Ge Wen." Brad Artemi sighed.
