Chapter 389 Did autograph sessions still exist in ancient times?
The sudden sound, both mischievous and curious, startled Lin Lezhi and Guan Ziheng.
Look back.
A small section of purple rope knot was visible at the corner, with a small round knot at the end swaying gently back and forth.
The iconic objects and the all-too-familiar sounds.
Who else could it be but Liu Yunhe?
Hearing that the two had suddenly fallen silent, Liu Yunhe stopped hiding and walked out from around the corner, just a few steps away from them, holding a sword in his hand and leaning against the side with his arms crossed.
As if they had discovered some incredible secret about the two, their inquisitive gazes swept back and forth between them.
Liu Yunhe looked at Lin Lezhi and deliberately said in a high-pitched tone, "Oh~ no wonder. You said you've read them all without a copy. They're all your writings, so naturally you don't need a copy to read them."
Lin Lezhi gave an awkward and slightly embarrassed smile.
I want to say something.
It wasn't written by him at all; it was all ghostwritten by Guan Ziheng. He just moved his lips to write it.
Guan Ziheng glanced around to see if anyone else was there, and tried to argue, "Don't talk nonsense, we didn't say that, you're spreading rumors."
Compared to Guan Ziheng's panic and helplessness, Liu Yunhe appeared calm and composed. The smugness on Guan Ziheng's face seemed to have been transferred to Liu Yunhe's face.
Liu Yunhe spoke calmly and logically, his eyes filled with certainty: "If he really isn't, why are you trying to hide it from us and prevent him from speaking? Why not just admit it openly? There are so many people in various places who cooperate with bookstores, and every single one of them constantly mentions Wuyouke. To avoid talking about it clearly means something is amiss!"
Seeing Liu Yunhe's confident demeanor, Guan Ziheng couldn't bear it and asserted, "Oh! I know, it must be Xiao Xu who told you!"
Listen and.
Liu Yunhe was taken aback, as if he hadn't expected Xiao Yihuo to already know.
Then the smugness in his eyes diminished a bit. He thought he was the first to discover it, but he didn't expect that it was the young master who discovered it first. Liu Yunhe was somewhat disappointed and said truthfully in a muffled tone, "My young master didn't say anything."
This time, it was Lin Lezhi and Guan Ziheng who were stunned. After exchanging a glance, Lin Lezhi asked, "How did you figure that out?"
Lin Lezhi's question was tantamount to admitting it outright.
For Lin Lezhi, this wasn't something that needed to be hidden; she just felt a little embarrassed and wanted to avoid some trouble.
Knowing that Lin Lezhi was no longer going to hide it, and that it was impossible to hide it anyway, Guan Ziheng shrugged lightly, leaned against the side to rest, and stopped asking questions.
Liu Yunhe glanced at Lin Lezhi, then quickly looked away and said truthfully, "Actually, I have no evidence, and you can deny it."
Lin Lezhi seemed to see through Liu Yunhe's thoughts and smiled, saying, "Actually, your young master didn't have any evidence either; he cheated out of it."
Guan Ziheng chimed in without mincing words, "Yes, they're cheating, but the fish still have to bite the bait."
Lin Lezhi immediately glanced at Guan Ziheng with a resentful look on her face.
Upon hearing Lin Lezhi mention Xiao Yihuo, Liu Yunhe's eyes widened, a look of astonishment rising within them.
Because the astonishment in his eyes lingered and intensified, he looked somewhat dazed.
He simply couldn't associate Xiao Yihuo with the word "cheating." Xiao Yihuo had always appeared calm, collected, and preoccupied in front of him.
"You didn't expect your young master to cheat, did you? Let me tell you, he's a real sly fox, full of bad intentions. He's always looking forward to seeing others make fools of themselves so he can secretly enjoy it."
"You're talking nonsense. My young master isn't like that at all. He may be a bit cold and seem unapproachable, and his temperament can be a little unpredictable at times."
Realizing that he seemed to be pointing out Xiao Yihuo's imperfections, Liu Yunhelian said somewhat flusteredly, "But my young master is very good to us, he just doesn't like to talk about it."
"He is certainly very good to you. As for whether I'm making this up, you'll know once you have the chance to see for yourself."
Liu Yunhe had never seen this side of Xiao Yihuo before. Recalling the last time he pushed open the door and saw the two of them fighting over something on the bed, he actually became curious about this other side of Xiao Yihuo.
Lin Lezhi encouraged him, then asked with curiosity in his eyes, "His ability to guess is secondary; the main thing is that he knew the origin of the name 'Worry-Free Guest' beforehand. If you want to know, you can ask him. What I want to know more about now is how you deduced it?"
"That ledger."
Lin Lezhi looked on with curiosity, waiting for Liu Yunhe to continue.
Liu Yunhe said slowly, "When we met at the inn, you never mentioned that Brother Guan was good at purchasing books, but if you are not, there is no need to hide it."
A warm glint flashed in Liu Yunhe's eyes as he said, "Your story to others is different from your story to us. You've never hidden the date of your meeting with Brother Guan from us, but you've kept the story of the storybook a secret. Plus, the timing of Wuyouke's appearance and disappearance... It can't be such a coincidence that it's exactly three months."
Although it was a bit awkward, it was pretty much correct. A look of joy appeared on Lin Lezhi's face, and she praised, "Not bad, you've made great progress."
Hearing Lin Lezhi's praise, Liu Yunhe couldn't hide his happiness.
Liu Yunhe's eyes darted around slightly, and he took out a stack of books from his bag. The top one was "I'm thriving in the Six Doors".
Lin Lezhi's smile turned into a stiff one. Not understanding what it meant, she felt a strange sense of shame and embarrassment after seeing her own books. She asked, "Why did you take these out?"
"Since I guessed right, consider it a reward and sign your name."
ha?
Did book signings still exist in ancient times?
Lin Lezhi wasn't very confident in his handwriting, so he made an excuse to decline, saying, "Besides... I don't have a pen, how can I sign it? I think we should just forget about it..."
“You mentioned evidence, so of course I need to keep evidence. What if you come out of the alley and deny it, saying I’m talking nonsense, and I have no evidence?”
Liu Yunhe couldn't imagine Xiao Yihuo acting like a scoundrel, but he could imagine Lin Lezhi being irresponsible all day long and turning her back on him.
Who knows, they might not recognize you once they're out of this alley.
Liu Yunhe looked at Guan Ziheng and asked, "Brother Guan, you usually keep accounts, so you must carry a pen with you. May I borrow your pen?"
"of course."
Thinking that one more person could corner Lin Lezhi, Guan Ziheng was happy to watch the show and readily handed over the pen.
Lin Lezhi glanced at Guan Ziheng with a resentful look, but Guan Ziheng added fuel to the fire with a look of watching a good show, speaking up for Liu Yunhe: "Yunhe likes your book, so why don't you sign one for Yunhe?"
"That's it."
Liu Yunhe immediately agreed.
Caught between the two, Lin Lezhi had no choice but to pick up the pen, pondering whether his pen-holding posture was correct, before signing the book.
Before he could even put down his pen, Liu Yunhe put the books back, turned to the last blank page of each book, and said in a slightly urging voice with burning eyes, "Sign them in there, sign all of these books."
Lin Le thought to himself that it didn't matter where he signed, he was just worried that his signature would be too ugly. Fortunately, Guan Ziheng had made him practice the three characters "Worry-Free Guest" before.
say what.
After all, he wrote these storybooks, and now he's famous far and wide. If people knew that Wuyouke couldn't even sign his own name properly, wouldn't it make him a laughing stock?
then.
Guan Ziheng used this as an excuse to force him to practice for quite some time until he finally made it neat and decent enough before letting him off the hook.
Therefore, Lin Lezhi had some confidence in the name "Worry-Free Guest," and signed his name "Worry-Free Guest" in a flowing and elegant style at the end of the book.
After signing, Lin Lezhi was fairly satisfied. Guan Ziheng had been watching closely the whole time, and seeing that it was alright, he showed a very pleased expression, thinking that the young man was teachable and still had room for improvement.
Before Lin Lezhi could even properly appreciate it, Liu Yunhe, as if by magic, produced a piece of paper from the book and unfolded it.
The paper is extremely similar to the pages of a book, and fifteen large characters are prominently written on it.
Fearing Lin Lezhi might not be able to see clearly, Liu Yunhe deliberately pointed to the words on the paper, a triumphant smile playing on his lips, and said, word by word, "Jiang Lian'an voluntarily accepts Liu Yunhe as her disciple, and will never deny it."
Signature.
Worry-free traveler.
