After hanging up the phone, Liu Xiao returned to the library and started reading.
But when he walked back to his seat, he found that it was occupied by someone?
"Um... I'm sorry, madam, there is someone in this position. I just went out to answer a phone call. Look at the books next to me. I just borrowed them to read."
The woman sitting in his seat had a high ponytail, tight jeans and a loose-looking T-shirt.
Judging from the side profile, this girl has soft facial lines, thick eyebrows and a straight nose bridge. She is a rare beauty.
It's just that being beautiful is one thing, but the look in her eyes when she looked up at Liu Xiao was too cold, even a little contemptuous.
"Who did you call madam? There was no one here when I came! Besides, you said you borrowed these books, can you read them all? Are you here to read or build a wall?"
Liu Xiao was stunned by what the other party said, and then became a little funny.
"Let me tell you, little sister, do I need to explain to you whether I can finish reading or not? I am willing to take so many~! Besides, is this library run by your family? How many books do I need to borrow from you?
Do you agree?"
The girl was speechless at Liu Xiao's retort.
She seemed a little surprised, anger flashed across her eyes, but then she calmed down.
"Oh? Well, today I want to see how you finish reading these books! Moreover, these books cover a wide range of topics, can you understand them?"
Liu Xiao let out a sigh, shook his head and said: "Sister, you are not my wife, nor my mother, why do you care so much about me? Let me say it again, I am free to read as many books as I want, and you are not my mother.
I'm happy~! The librarian didn't say anything, so why are you looking for a sense of presence here?"
"you....!"
This beautiful girl has probably never been so harshly criticized by someone. She didn't know how to reply at the moment. Her face turned from red to white, and then from white to red again. She pointed at Liu Xiao and couldn't say a word for a long time.
"Okay... okay... okay... I can't control you, but today I want to see how you finish reading these books! If you can't finish them... I have plenty of ways to deal with you!"
The girl said harsh words and stood up from her seat, folding her arms in front of her chest and standing beside her.
Liu Xiao rolled his eyes and said: "That's weird... Whose child are you from? Don't you have any adults to care about? So free? Forget it, just go and watch if you want. I don't have time to talk nonsense with you here.
.”
Liu Xiao ignored the beauty's death gaze, sat among a pile of books and began to read quickly.
His way of reading has become a beautiful sight in the Xiazhu City Library. Many people who love reading come here to see this reading maniac with their own eyes.
However, the girl standing next to him at this moment was no exception. She was also attracted by the news.
Today she was going to see with her own eyes whether this person was as powerful as the rumors said!
But now she feels that people like Liu Xiao don't like reading at all, and are probably just clowns trying to please others!
However, when she saw how quickly Liu Xiao turned through the book, her thick eyebrows furrowed more and more tightly.
How does this guy look like he's reading? It's like he's looking for the private money that he didn't know was hidden in the books in his past life! He threw the books at his feet one by one, and now he's finished reading?
However, what the girl didn't know was that Liu Xiao's current reading speed had been deliberately slowed down a lot by him.
If things were like the first day, where he read thousands of books in one afternoon, he was afraid that he would be dragged to the institute to be dissected and experimented on as an alien.
Just like that, the beautiful girl stood next to Liu Xiao, watching the pile of books in front of him getting thicker and thicker.
The girl raised her hand and looked at the clock. In one hour and thirty minutes, this guy had already read all the two hundred books piled in front of him!
"What speed is this? Can you see it? It's all nonsense! Grandstanding! Clown~!"
The girl's teeth chattered in anger, but just when she was about to speak, she saw Liu Xiao closing his eyes and resting for a few seconds. Then he took out a notebook from his arms and began to write and draw on it with a pen, just like taking notes while reading a book.
Same.
As she watched, the girl's eyes widened, and her horror could no longer be concealed!
This... this guy actually drew a complete set of drawings for laying underground water pipes!? There is also a horizontal structural drawing of a bathhouse?!
He...did he all read this from those books just now? Did he remember them all? But...how is this possible!?
After finishing those drawings, Liu Xiao chewed the penholder and thought about it for a while, then turned over a page and started writing and drawing again.
But this time the girl was even more shocked! Because what appeared in Liu Xiao's notebook turned out to be a city defense ballista used in warfare in ancient times!
Liu Xiao's idea is very simple. This time when he goes back, he will improve his camp defense ability to a higher level~!
He wants to replace the wooden fence around the camp with stone walls, and build this kind of ballistae on the city wall to defend against foreign enemies or crazy evil beasts.
And the bathhouse is his personal need.
After all, it was a bit inconvenient to always squeeze in the shower room with the employees, especially after he and Rosa confirmed their relationship, they needed a private space.
So this time Liu Xiao will dig a hot tub for himself when he goes back, so that he can bathe with his beautiful half-orc girl~!
"Have you...really read all those books of yours?"
Liu Xiao closed his notebook and was about to leave, but saw the beautiful girl with a high ponytail still standing next to him.
"Hey, little sister, why are you so idle? Standing there all the time watching me read? Is it interesting? If you have the time, why don't you get two books and read them carefully~! Knowledge is power, and knowledge can change things.
Destiny~Come on~!”
Liu Xiao said and clenched his fists before preparing to walk past the girl.
But who knew that at this moment, the girl suddenly reached out and grabbed his clothes.
"Wait a minute! Please explain to me clearly, how did you do it?"
Liu Xiao half-turned around and said slightly unhappy: "Hey little sister, don't move your hands or feet, or I'll sue you for indecent assault."
"What? Are you suing me for indecent assault??"
The girl's face was full of disbelief. This was the first time in her life that a man dared to talk to her like this!
Accuse her of indecent assault? No matter whether she is at school or at home, she is always a princess held in the palm of everyone's hands! When have you ever encountered such a scoundrel? This is simply unreasonable!
"Stop! What's your name? What do you do? With such ability, why don't you serve the country and play a greater role?"
Liu Xiao rolled his eyes, feeling that this beauty was a little annoyed.
"Whose child is not tied up? We just said that if you are sick, don't run out, stay in the hospital and take medicine! Why are you so lenient? If you drag me again, I will really call the police~!
"
Liu Xiao forcefully pulled back his clothes and continued to walk out the door.
But the girl bit her lower lip, took two quick steps and grabbed his clothes again.
"You are not allowed to leave! If you don't make things clear today, you won't be able to leave here!"
"Hey~~~Are you still excited? Let go quickly! I'm telling you, don't force me to hit women!"
"What? You...you still dare to hit me? Just hit me! Try hitting me!"
As the girl spoke, she brought her face closer, with tears already in the corners of her eyes.
She has grown so old, no matter how hard someone wants to hit her, even harsh words have never been said in front of her!
But what happened to this man today? Is he so unbearable and annoying?
Just when Liu Xiao and the girl were confused, a voice suddenly came from not far away.
"Miss, be careful!"
As soon as this sound reached Liu Xiao's ears, he felt that his body had been inexplicably flying into the air. After half a second, a heartbreaking pain came from his ribs.
Liu Xiao knew in his heart that at least two of his ribs were broken!
He was hit by an unknown object traveling at high speed and flew sideways, knocking over two rows of bookshelves! He was completely buried inside by the fallen books.
