The moment Lin Sisi walked in, Su Yingxue rushed out.

Lin Sisi greeted her, but Su Yingxue ignored her.

Chu Jinling noticed Lin Sisi standing there in confusion and kindly stepped in to help smooth things over for Su Yingxue. “Miss Lin, Dr. Su had some urgent matters today, which is why she left in a hurry.”

“I see!” Lin Sisi nodded. “I was wondering why she ignored me! Oh, Ninth Prince, what brings you here?”

As the daughter of a prominent military family, Lin Sisi had some knowledge of royalty. Compared to her scoundrel of a brother, Chu Xiuwen, and the haughty Chu Chengye, she found Chu Jinling, who seemed to idle around all day, more endearing.

Chu Jinling had a penchant for smiling, and when he did, it was like a breath of fresh air. “I own this bookstore. As the proprietor, it’s only natural for me to visit regularly.”

“Proprietor?” Lin Sisi’s eyes revealed a hint of surprise. “I never expected you to own a bookstore!”

“Miss Lin, are you underestimating me? I set up this entire bookstore, and each book was handpicked by me!” Chu Jinling crossed his arms, appearing rather self-satisfied, as if to say, “See, I have my talents!”

“The bookstore is quite nice, but there aren’t enough books. I searched for a long time and couldn’t find what 1 wanted to read,” Lin Sisi sighed softly. Since she didn’t have anything in her hand, she subconsciously reached for her whip.

However, she felt empty-handed, the whip had been given to Su Yingxue.

“Too few books? Miss Lin, are you joking? This bookstore of mine is among the best in Jiang Du City, featuring three floors of bookshelves. How could you not find the books you want?” Chu Jinling couldn’t stand others saying this.

“What? There are more upstairs?” Lin Sisi was genuinely surprised.

“Silly girl, come on, let me take you upstairs to find your books!” Chu Jinling playfully tapped Lin Sisi’s head and led her to the second floor.

Lin Sisi wanted to find military books to read, so Chu Jinling took her to a corner on the second floor, set up a ladder, and fetched a stack of military books for her.

“Wow, what kind of military book is this? I’ve never seen it before!”

“And these! ‘Peerless God of War’, ‘Beacon Fighters’… What are these? How come I’ve never heard of them before?”

Lin Sisi flipped through the book in her hand, treating it like a precious treasure.

“These are all God of War novels. I adapted them based on my Imperial Uncle’s battlefield exploits. I’ve written his military techniques into these books, but I’ve presented them as stories to make them more engaging and lively. Since you like military books, you can choose from this category!” Chu Jinling proudly raised an eyebrow, anticipating Lin Sisi’s compliments.

Lin Sisi didn’t disappoint. Her large, sparkling eyes were filled with stars. “Ninth Prince, you’re amazing! I’ve never seen anyone turn military tactics into storybooks like this. And there are so many of them, a whole ten volumes!”

“Ah, what’s so great about it? I’ve been gossiping since the age of ten and started writing books at fourteen. So far, I’ve only written a few hundred!” Chu Jinling pulled out a folding fan from his waist and waved it with an air of elegance.

“Incredible! I think you’re much more impressive than your brothers!” Lin Sisi’s admiration was heartfelt.

With the author himself by her side, Lin Sisi pulled Chu Jinling into reading with her. When they reached exciting parts, she even engaged in discussions with him.

It was rare for Chu Jinling to encounter someone who admired him so much. The more they talked, the happier he became. As their conversation deepened, he suddenly noticed that Lin Sisi’s eyes were exceptionally captivating.

Especially when she looked at him, her eyes shone, as if they held all the stars in the sky..
