Xiao Zhan clenched the brush between his fingers, he could no longer continue writing. He felt like his head was going to explode with so much information, whether the levels of cultivation or what is the difference between one Qi and another Qi, an element that can help in cultivation?

He spent three hours of his afternoon copying books, books and more books!

Xiao Zhan could not stand that in this world there were no photocopiers or printing presses, it is horrible, wanting to take a book and not being able to do it, you had to copy what you want to read by hand! At least, in his childhood, Xiao Zhan had already received calligraphy lessons, so his handwriting was not bad.

Being writing for so long and sitting in such good shape, Xiao Zhan could no longer feel his legs.

He stifled a sigh.

Who would have imagined that after twelve years of compulsory education, having graduated from college, having his career as an international superstar rise so well, Xiao Zhan will transmigrate into the body of a character in a novel, who is only fifteen and would have to go back to school. Who could believe that?

Even Xiao Zhan himself had wondered if he was dreaming, and when he saw that his arms were once again purple from pinching and hurting, he resigned himself to his new life.

And even if he is changing his destiny, that doesn't mean it won't affect his future. He has to find a way to finish off the bad Wen and save the good Wen, uncover what that sect wants to do with them, have strong allies without becoming anyone's servant or wife, and live a quiet life for eternity.

Not a bad plan.

With spirits high again, Xiao Zhan got his act together and began to transcribe the texts quickly, Jiang YanLi had promised in the morning that she would borrow the kitchen to prepare her famous soup.

When he was concentrating on something, Xiao Zhan had the habit of humming or singing a song that matched his mood. His voice was beautiful, calm and melodious, no instrument could rival it.

Lan WangJi entering the Library pavilion, his icy eyes fixed on the young man sitting at a table near the window, ignoring everything around him.

"Quiet" his voice sounded cold and cutting "No disturbances are allowed in the Library Pavilion."

"You're very bitter you know that?" Xiao Zhan wrinkled his perfect eyebrows "You won't get a wife that way." [Note of the translator: I wonder, why do I feel that Xiao Zhan will become a clown in the future just like Wei Ying did? 🤡😂]

"Shameless" was all Lan Zhan said and then completely ignored him, sitting down at the table in the center of the library and starting to read a book.

Xiao Zhan just shrugged his shoulders and went on with his business.

His brother said that this man was going to be great in the future? Lan WangJi thinks his brother is blind, this Wei Wuxian is just a shameless man who hides behind hundreds of masks and only reveals his true 'I' with Lan Zhan.

Xiao Zhan oblivious to what his companion was thinking, had already stopped transcribing several minutes ago and his brush danced as if it had a life of its own on the white paper. Drawing straight lines, patterns, oval lines... little by little the drawing began to take shape, suddenly the brush stopped.

No.

Xiao Zhan dropped the brush, without realizing it he had made a portrait of that person. That person who was like a block of ice conveying an icy aura, distant, even sitting far away from him. He stopped for a moment and looked at the drawing, it was not bad, he would not throw it away.

It would be a waste of paper.

He stopped wasting time and went on with his homework, Xiao Zhan gave himself encouragement, tomorrow classes officially start and he has a lot of studying to do.

When eight o'clock came, an hour before curfew, Xiao Zhan already had everything he needed to study and what he still had to copy, he would do the next day. The library was very big and he could not copy all the books, so some books will have to be read there. When Xiao Zhan came out of the library pavilion, Lan Zhan was still reading his book and writing things in another one.

Xiao Zhan bowed to him, picked up his things and went straight to where he had arranged to meet the Jiang brothers. He didn't take long, most of the disciples were either having dinner or had already gone to rest.

When he arrived, he saw Jiang Cheng practicing with his sword and was surprised at how well he handled the weapon, and Jiang Yan-Li sitting with a steaming pot and three bowls on the courtyard table.

"A-Xian" she greeted with a beautiful smile "Come, A-Cheng and I were expecting you for dinner."

"Where were you?" was the first thing Jiang Cheng asked as he sat down next to Xiao Zhan "I haven't seen you all afternoon."

"I was in the library" Wei Wuxian replied simply as he watched his Shijie ladle the rib and lotus root soup into the three bowls.

"Are you kidding me?" Jiang Cheng didn't believe anything his brother said "When have you ever set foot in a library? What's more, when have you ever read a book?"

"Who has never read a book? If you don't believe me, you can ask Lan Wangji, he was there too" Xiao Zhan shrugged his shoulders, he was too lazy to explain everything to him.

"A-Cheng" Jiang YanLi who had his elder brother's intention to continue the interrogation, looked at him seriously "A-Xian is trying hard. "

'A-Xian' in front of him was crying in his heart of joy, when Wei Wuxian said that his Shijie's soup was the best in the world He was not lying! It was the best soup he had ever eaten in his whole life!

The taste was so unique that even if he ate a cauldron he wouldn't have enough, the different spices, the tender and well-cooked rib meat, the lotus root that gave a fresh taste, was the main star of the soup... Everything complemented each other so perfectly!

Xiao Zhan had never tasted a soup as good as this one!

"Shijie's soup is the best!" this time there was no acting, he said it from the bottom of his heart "I will never get tired of eating it even if it's every day of the year".

"Aiyoo" said Jiang YanLi embarrassed but amused by her comments and eyes shining with excitement.

"Take off that expression, you look more idiotic than you already are" Jiang Cheng couldn't keep his mouth shut.

"This is between me and Shijie, you are not welcome. "

"Wei Wuxian!"

"A-Xian, A-Cheng..."
