As he spoke, Liu Yundan opened the box with one hand, and a light fragrance different from the scent of apricot blossoms wafted out.

The first kind of incense is exactly the orchid sandalwood that Mr. Zhao likes.

Then, Liu Yunqing opened the second box, and the fragrance this time was much more overbearing, a fresh fruity scent.

Not to mention Mr. Zhao who was standing in front of Liu Yunqing, even those who were closer to him could smell the fresh scent, and out of curiosity, they all stretched their necks to look.

What kind of incense paper is this? It’s incredible!

It was also an unintentional creation that led to the creation of a forest of willows. In just a short while, it even attracted butterflies from the jungle, which landed on the paper or on the beautiful box.

Liu Yunqing also had a scent on her body, and butterflies of various colors were flying around her, and some were landing on her black hair and sleeves.

When the sunlight shone on her, she looked like a fairy from heaven, making it impossible to take your eyes off her.

Everyone was staring at it intently, marveling at it, when suddenly a tall figure blocked Madam Liu's view tightly. It was Mr. Zhao who was jealous and could not help but take another step forward to block Madam Liu's view.

But he could only block one side, and he was not a strong enough person to block the little monster in his house completely.

"Thank you Madam Liu. It would be my fault if I didn't accept your kindness."

Having said that, Zhao Chengyan took the box and turned to look at the talented scholars.

"I would like to share Madam Liu's kindness with you all. I will only give one to each of you. I would be reluctant to give more than that."

Mr. Zhao made a joke, which made everyone laugh. Mao'er called the servants to come forward and make arrangements at the right time.

There was a low table with a bamboo mat, writing brush, ink, paper, inkstone, fragrant tea and fruit, and each person was given a piece of scented paper with a fruity flavor. No one was willing to use them.

While everyone's eyes were focused on the paper, Zhao Chengyan winked at Zhang Youzheng, asking him to go outside, and then he invited Liu Yunqing to follow him to the bamboo building not far away to sit for a while.

Liu Yunqing followed naturally. Yu Ping was invited by Mao'er to a small room for tea, and only the two of them were left in the half-open bamboo building to talk.

There were only two of them left, so Liu Yunqing quickly took out her handkerchief and wiped her forehead and neck that had been touched by the butterfly. She smiled and apologized to Zhao Chengyan.

"I'm sorry for my rude behavior, A Yan. I didn't expect that the incense paper could actually attract butterflies. It looks nice, but the scales on the butterfly's wings really make me itchy and uncomfortable. I can't stand standing outside for a while longer."

Zhao Chengyan looked at her quickly and took out his handkerchief to wipe her shoulders.

"Do you want Mao'er to bring some warm water for you to wash up? This bamboo house is mine. No one comes in on weekdays. Don't feel uncomfortable."

Liu Yunqing just felt a little itchy, it wasn't an allergy or anything, and she didn't feel anything like turning into a cat catching butterflies, but there were just too many butterflies, making her feel uncomfortable.

"No need, just wipe it off."

Liu Yunqing smiled and looked at Zhao Chengyan in surprise. It was strange that when she held the incense paper, butterflies came to her, but when Zhao Chengyan took it, the butterflies did not dare to come near her.

Could it be that just as Zhao Chengyan said, he is not liked by small creatures? Even bugs don't like to stick to him? This is too good to be true!

Liu Yunqing asked whatever she thought, but she omitted the fact that Zhao Chengyan was not liked by small animals, which was not something she, Liu Yunqing, should know.

Zhao Chengyan smiled without saying anything, took off his sachet and gave it to Liu Yunqing.

"Do you think I have any magical powers? It's just that there are many insects in spring, so Maoer changed the mosquito repellent sachet for me when I go out. But butterflies don't like it, so I put it on you to avoid itching you."

Liu Yunqing thanked him and put it on his waist.

Since that day when Mr. Zhao stayed overnight in the book bar, although the two had not seen each other again, they were much closer now.

Zhao Chengyan didn't feel comfortable holding Liu Yunqing's hand, so he just pulled her sleeve and asked her to sit next to him.

The ones that were given away just now were all fruity scented, but this orchid and sandalwood scent, Zhao Chengyan knew that it was specially prepared for him by Liu Yunqing, and he was reluctant to give it away.

At this moment, I have to ask Yunqing to write a good piece of calligraphy, so that I can repay Yunqing's efforts.

"It must be difficult to develop this incense paper. I've only seen you for a few days and I feel like you've lost a lot of weight."

Liu Yunqing held up his chin and looked at him: "It's not easy. First, I have to make incense, and second, I have to adjust the ratio when making paper. As long as the fragrance changes, I have to readjust it. Fortunately, Sister Shi Yin from the paper mill helped me a lot, and I also do this business with her."

"You don't know, I finally got a batch of them a few days ago, and then I remembered that I didn't know what to use to pack the incense paper. I walked around the streets for a long time and met the Pu family brother and sister who were good at bamboo weaving. That's how I got the beautiful box..."

Liu Yunqing kept chattering to the people next to him, but Zhao Chengyan didn't find it noisy at all. On the contrary, the more he listened, the happier he felt, and he kept writing.

When I came back to my senses, I realized that what I had memorized was Mr. Wu Liu's "Idle Feelings", which was about the stunning beauty that he thought about day and night, and how he imagined being with her day and night, inseparable...

It's about to die!

How could Liu Yunqing see this? His little monster was so smart that he could even make sense of the strategy.

Zhao Chengyan didn't wait for the ink to dry, but turned it over and placed it under a pile of books on the corner of the table.

"Why don't you write anymore? What are you writing about?"

Liu Yunqing couldn't help but ask.

How could Zhao Chengyan dare to tell the truth: "I just wrote a few sentences casually. My handwriting is not good. I don't want to make fun of you."

"Yunqing, what do you want to eat for lunch? I'll treat you to lunch, okay? Right here, just the two of us."

Liu Yunqing didn't think much about it. Today's event went smoothly and it had created enough hype. She allowed herself half a day off and was naturally willing to stay with Mr. Zhao.

"Okay, I wonder if this bamboo house is convenient for making a fire. If it is, we can make it ourselves."

I have been busy these days and have not eaten at home, so the meals are just makeshift. Liu Yunqing is a little craving for the Bo Xia Gong dish, which is simply spicy hot pot rabbit meat. If there is enough, it doesn't matter how good it looks. You can cook some other meat slices in the pot and eat it as a hot pot. I guess it will taste good.

"I said I invited you, but now you have to cook for us. How can I trouble you to do it? Just tell me to do it. Although I am not good at cooking, I am still a smart person."

Liu Yunqing smiled and nodded in agreement, but it might not be convenient to stay here as there were so many talented students outside!

Zhao Chengyan assured her, "Don't worry, I brought Zhang Youzheng here today. He is the grandson of the Grand Tutor and his literary talent is unrivaled in Bianjing. I specifically asked him to help me today!"

Mr. Zhao is such a bad friend. Liu Yunqing knows Zhang Youzheng and has eaten the dried meat he gave him. Since he is a big customer of the bookstore, he asked Mr. Zhao to invite him to dinner.
