I open a bookstore in the human world

On this side, the Tiandi Emperor is still struggling, and Song Lan, who has no idea on the other side, has followed King Pingping to the heaven to give the orb.

The hall of Qingyin, where the third prince of heaven had been neglected for a long time, was extremely lively during this time. The Queen of the Heaven left crying with the consolation of her second son. , not allowing them to enter, for fear of bumping into the third prince who is lingering on the sick bed.

The king of equality and the third prince have known each other for a long time. Naturally, they know the stinky rules of the heavens. They say that the three realms are equal. In fact, people in the heavens look down on the human world and the underworld. Only the third prince in it really treats everyone equally, otherwise Nor will he befriend it.Because of this, in the past, King Equality rarely came to heaven to find friends in person, and usually friends went to the underworld to visit him.

This is the first time for Song Lan to come to the Heaven Realm, and she doesn't know much about it. Seeing that her sweetheart is inside, but she is stopped outside the door, her heart suddenly flares up. Noisy" language, loudly shouted: "We are here to save people, why not let us in?"

"The Queen of Heaven has explained that the Third Prince is seriously ill, so no one else can visit him easily!" the guard at the gate of the Hall of Voiceless Voice said emphatically.

King Ping'an frowned, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and said, "We are not idlers, we are here to deliver medicine to the third prince."

The guard wanted to say something else, but Zhang Fan, who received the news, arrived in a hurry, stepped forward to mediate, and warmly welcomed the group of people into the hall.

"I'm really sorry, the third brother is unconscious, and the queen mother is too worried, and worried that too many people visiting will be bad for the third brother, so she ordered that no one else be allowed to visit."

Song Lan was still angry at first, but when he heard that Xie Daonian was in a coma, he immediately put everything behind him and asked nervously, "What happened to him?"

Zhang Fan smiled wryly: "The situation is not very good. I heard that you found the Soul Condensation Orb?"

Song Lan nodded, and carefully took the orb out of her arms. For a moment, the room was filled with light.

"So bright?" Zhang Fan frowned slightly, and said to himself, "Since it is so conspicuous, how could those heavenly soldiers and generals not be able to find the orb?"

Before he had time to think, he heard the waiter announce the arrival of Taishang Laojun, Zhang Fan rushed to greet him without caring about other things.

Song Lan was curious, and followed to see this famous old fairy, and saw an old man with a white beard walking straight in Song Lan's direction, with an unfathomable expression on his face, which was quite in line with the world's imagination of gods .

While Song Lan was sizing up Taishang Laojun, the other party was also looking at him without a trace, and then his eyes fell on the orb in his hand, his face eased, and he nodded: "It really is the soul-condensing orb."

After hearing Taishang Laojun's confirmation, everyone breathed a sigh of relief: Actually, a blind cat bumped into a dead mouse!

"Thank you—is the third prince safe?" Song Lan stared at Taishang Laojun with wide eyes, and asked nervously.

Taishang Laojun smiled meaningfully: "With the Soul Concentrating Orb, there is salvation."

With this guarantee, Song Lan suddenly relaxed, and only then did he feel exhausted, and almost sat down on the ground.

King Pingping supported him in time, and nodded to Taishang Laojun: "Thank you, Laojun."

***

Everything was successful, with the Soul Concentrating Orb, I don't know what kind of ancient fairy art the old master used. After 49 days of Qiqi, Xie Daonian, who was unconscious, slowly opened his eyes.

At that time, Song Lan was sitting by the bed flipping through a book. In fact, he couldn't read a single word, but he still flipped through it mechanically, as if this would relieve the uneasiness in his heart.

I don't know what Zhang Fan and the Taishang Laojun said to the Heavenly Emperor and the Empress, but no one stopped him from staying in the Qingyin Hall of the Third Prince.King Equality had already returned to the underworld to handle official duties, and Song Lan was the only one left, who stayed by Xie Daonian's side every day, and refused to leave even a little bit, and would not listen to anyone's persuasion.As time passed, those celestial servants who didn't think highly of him before were also moved, and they often discussed the relationship between this junior ghost envoy of the underworld and his master in private.

"Song Song..." Xu Shi hadn't spoken for a long time, his voice was so hoarse that it seemed to be rolling on matte paper. Fortunately, the third prince had a natural good voice, which was not unpleasant, and even a little sexy.

With a "click", the "Textbook for Underworld Civil Servants" in Song Lan's hand fell to the ground, and the master raised his head in disbelief, his eyes were as big as copper bells.

You-yu-xi-du-jia-organize-organize, more-more-fine-color-respect-please-close-note.

"You...you're awake?" Her breathing became disordered, but she didn't dare to speak loudly, for fear that if she took a breath, the person in front of her would disappear.

Xie Daonian pulled the corners of his dry lips, stared intently at the person in front of him who was missing him even in a coma, smiled softly, stretched out his cold hand covering Song Lanchui on the couch, and asked softly: "I slept for a long time?"

The heat in the other party's palm reminded that all this was not a dream. Tears fell down almost uncontrollably, faintly crying, and the lips trembled violently. It took a long time before he could utter a complete sentence: "According to the human world's calendar, , for three whole months."

"You have worked hard these past three months." Xie Daonian held his face distressedly, gently wiped the tears on his cheeks with his fingers, raised his head slightly, and placed a gentle kiss on his lips.

The warm and soft touch is fire and dry wood. Song Lan hugged his shoulders tightly with both hands, lips and tongue were inseparable, hot breaths entangled in the air, ambiguous squeaks sounded from time to time, they were like two drowning The person who loves you, puts all your strength into kissing, lingering until death.

Zhang Fan stood awkwardly at the door, but he was in a dilemma. In fact, he was more than happy to help them. However, the situation in front of him was a bit delicate. He sneaked a glance at the graceful and expressionless Tianhou beside him, and coughed hard as a reminder.

Hearing this sound, Song Lan's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately put her hands on Xie Daonian's chest, and separated her two heads, causing Xie Daonian to hum reluctantly.

However, Song Lan couldn't care less about comforting his lover at this moment, because he had already seen the person coming, his face changed suddenly, and his embarrassment was beyond words.

——It's really confusing to make out in front of the elders.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

"Third brother, you're awake. You don't know how worried we are all about you." Zhang Fan was still smart after all, seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he quickly changed the subject, strode to the bedside, grabbed Xie Daonian's hand, And quietly winked at Song Lan.

Song Lan understood, let go of her hand without any trace, and took a step back to the side, pretending that nothing happened just now.

Zhang Fan was still chattering: "Father and Queen Mother are very worried about you, and they send people to ask about your situation every day. Taijun said that it's time for you to wake up. No, Queen Mother came here in person."

"Mother's Queen." Xie Daonian spoke respectfully to the beautiful woman who had been silent since just now, and lifted up weakly, wanting to get off the bed to salute, but was stopped by the other party.

"You are weak, so let's not be polite." Tian Hou finally spoke, her voice was nice, but she seemed a little majestic.

"Thank you, mother." Xie Daonian smiled, but still propped himself up and performed a complete salute.

Whether it is in ability or etiquette, the third prince has always been faultless. It is no wonder that the emperor and queen of heaven value him so much, and both inside and outside the heavenly court regard him as the next emperor of heaven.

Tianhou looked at her perfect son with complicated eyes, and from the corner of her eyes, she saw Song Lan who was standing quietly and trying to put it into a vase, and sighed slightly in her heart.

But it happened to be him, not only fell in love with the ghost, but the other party was also of the same sex, if this spread, where should Heavenly Court put its face?

"Fan'er, you go out first, I have something to say to your third brother." Thinking of such a big trouble, Tianhou's voice couldn't help but turn cold.

Zhang Fan gave Xie Daonian a "take care" look, and said with a sneer, "The son will retire first." As he spoke, he did not forget to pull Song Lan, who was stiff all over, out the door, and closed the door for the two of them considerately .

An hour later, Tianhou drove away.

"Third brother, what did the queen mother tell you?" Zhang Fan hurriedly rushed to Xie Daonian's bed, his eyes widened and he asked nervously.

Song Lan also followed behind him, and opened her mouth, as if she wanted to ask something, but she still didn't make a sound, but her face was full of worry and apprehension.

Xie Daonian smiled lightly, there was nothing amiss on his face. "It's nothing, it's just a little homely talk."

"Really?" Zhang Fan obviously didn't believe it, and cautiously probed, "Did the queen mother not mention other things? For example... Well, it's the one next to me."

When Song Lan heard that she was called, her whole body froze, her pupils shrank slightly, her palms were sweating, and she looked at Xie Daonian anxiously.

Xie Daonian also happened to look over, his gaze seemed to have the ability to soothe people's hearts, and Song Lan gradually calmed down.

"Second brother." Xie Daonian said suddenly.

"Huh?" Zhang Fan didn't know why.

"Have you heard any rumors recently?" Xie Daonian asked lightly.

"Uh..." Zhang Fan's face froze, he scratched behind his ears unconsciously, and said with a sneer, "What, what's the wind? No, nothing." As he said that, he couldn't help looking at Song Lan with his eyes.

Why not?Now the heavens have already spread the word that the third prince has a Taoist partner in the human world, and the other party is not only a lowly kid, but also a man.There was a lot of discussion in Tianjie about this, and the words were not very pleasant. Of course, Zhang Fan couldn't speak in front of the two of them.

Song Lan has been staying by Xie Daonian's side in the Qingyin Hall for many days. Although he has not heard these remarks with his own ears, he can occasionally feel it from the strange eyes of the waiters in the hall. Can guess what.It's just that he was so focused on taking care of Xie Daonian that he didn't bother to think about it and didn't want to think about it, but now he seems to have to face it.

Thinking of this, Song Lan's eyes darkened, and he laughed at himself: Most of the people in the world are people who follow the trend and push the high and the low, and thought that the gods of the heavens would be special, but now it seems that they are not much different from ordinary people.

As if guessing what Song Lan was thinking, Xie Daonian waved to him and said in a deep voice, "Song Song, come here."

Song Lan hesitated for a moment, and moved to Xie Daonian's bedside. The latter turned his palms on his waist. As soon as he exerted force with his hands, he fell into the man's arms. Locked up, unable to move.

"What are you doing? There are still people here." Song Lan could only blushed and murmured softly.

Xie Daonian's expression was as usual, and he glanced at his second brother, who understood and made an excuse with a smirk: "Then what, I'll go and see if your medicine is ready, third brother."

After saying that, he lifted his foot and left, and he didn't have the nerve to stay longer for half a second.

"There's no one left now." Xie Daonian leaned closer to Song Lan's ear, and his warm breath blew on his neck, scratching like a feather, making people feel itchy.

Song Lan glared at him with anger and anger, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise: "You are really... What did the Queen of Heaven tell you?" After all, she still couldn't let go and remembered this matter.

Xie Daonian's fingers wandered over him intentionally or unintentionally, his eyes wandered, and he didn't know where to land: "It's really nothing."

Song Lan couldn't help frowning, clasped his dishonest hand, and said in a serious tone, "Tell the truth."

Xie Daonian's eyes froze, the smile in his eyes gradually faded, he met his eyes, his eyes flickered slightly, and he said with a half sigh: "Song Song, the matter is really not as serious as you think, I can solve it, huh? "

Song Lan wanted to say something, but her lips were sealed with tenderness.A burst of numbness shot up from the soles of his feet, he subconsciously opened his mouth, and his dexterous tongue swam in, hooking the root of his tongue and scratching it around, his waist couldn't help but soften, and his consciousness gradually lost.

Before completely losing her mind, Song Lan thought in annoyance: Such a thing as a pretty boy, it's really annoying!

In fact, Xie Daonian did not lie. His conversation with Tianhou was not as serious as others thought. Of course, the question of Song Lan's fate was inevitable, but Xie Daonian had a tough attitude and refused to let go. Tianhou also knew her son In the end, he was subdued: "If you insist on identifying that brat, I have nothing to say, but I just want to remind you that this road is not easy to walk, and there may be many obstacles in the future. Have you really thought it through? "

Xie Daonian responded like this: "My mother naturally knows that I am never afraid of any difficulties. When the wind comes and the rain comes, just face the wind and rain."

After Tianhou went back, she told the Emperor of Heaven what her son had said. The latter was silent for a long time, and couldn't help sighing: "What nonsense." His tone was helpless, but there was nothing he could do.

Parents are always helpless with their children, whether it is in the human world or the heavenly world, it is one of the few beautiful qualities shared by humans and gods.

"Forget it, anyway, this emperor can still work for thousands of years, let's talk about the future." After all, he is still his own son, no matter how much he blows his beard and stares, he still feels distressed.

After thinking about it, I still felt a bit disadvantaged: "It's a pity our age, what a good boy..." Why did he just fall in love with that little devil?

Most of the parents in the world are like this. They always feel that their children are the best and no one is worthy of them.

"After all, it doesn't count as humiliating our son," Tianhou persuaded, "Didn't Laojun say that this Song Lan might be the reincarnation of the Pearl Keeper, if that's the case, it might be destined by heaven for the two of them to meet."

The Emperor of Heaven had nothing to say, and for a long while, he could only shake his head and sigh "children and grandchildren have their own blessings", and continued to approve official documents.

***

Two years later, next to the Nantian Gate.

"How nice it is to stay in the heaven, why do you have to go back to the human world?" Zhang Fan was full of reluctance, still trying to keep the two of them, "The boss has been taking care of you for the past few months, and he doesn't have time to go shopping, why don't we Or stay a little longer, I will be the host, and take you to play?"

Song Lan and Xie Daonian looked at each other and declined politely: "Next time, there will be chances later."

Xie Daonian hugged Song Lan's shoulder with a smile, and added: "His mission in the human world has not been completed, and he has to go back and finish it."

"Isn't it?" Zhang Fan's tone was exaggerated, and he pointed to King Equality who was also here to give him away, "The leader is here, what the boss wants to do is not just a matter of saying, do you need to fight like this—"

Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Fan received a violent shudder on the back of his head, and Xia Lan glared sullenly: "Hey, hey, hey, you are the second prince of the heavens, and you openly lead the way through the back door, tsk tsk tsk, you have a bad atmosphere in the heavens!" That's bad enough."

"You female ghost!" Zhang Fan was anxious, and he couldn't do anything because of face, his face was red with anger, and he could only stare aside, but there was nothing he could do.

"Vulgar!" In the end, he could only throw down two words in exasperation.

"Vulgar." The other party replied lightly.

"you!"

"How about me? A little bit..."

The others have long been accustomed to the occasional kindergarten-style quarrel between the fairy and the ghost, so they just ignore it and speak their own words.

"Your body has not fully recovered, why don't you delay returning to the human world for a few years?" King Equality said to his friend with a little worry, "There is no rush."

Xie Daonian looked at Song Lan, stretched out his hand to rub his hair, and smiled softly: "It's the same when you go down to recuperate. Besides, we can't let go of the bookstore."

In any case, the two got together because of the Shadow Bookstore. After getting the Soul Condensing Orb, although Xie Daonian no longer needs to rely on the bookstore to restore his soul, both of them still hope to see the Shadow Bookstore grow and grow with their own eyes.For them, the shadow bookstore is not just a tool, but more like a child raised by them.

After a group of people bid farewell to each other, they parted ways. King Equality led Secretary Xia, who had a face because of the bickering, back to the underworld, and the second prince, who had won the quarrel, returned home triumphantly. Xie Daonian joined hands with Song Lan Arrived in the human world.

Human World, Magic City, Shadow Group Building, General Manager Office.

Liang Hong, who had just finished processing a batch of documents, stood up and let out a long breath. She moved her arms that were slightly stiff due to keeping the same posture for a long time, and walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the tall buildings like small iron boxes and the criss-crossing roads under her feet. My heart can't help but filled with thousands of emotions——

Destiny is really a wonderful thing. I, who was still thinking about how to deal with the Shadow Bookstore a few years ago, must have never imagined that today she has become the chief leader of the Shadow Group, controlling the Shadow Bookstore, the Shadow Restaurant, the Shadow Education, etc. Subsidiary.

She has truly realized her dream here, and the man who gave all the power to her has disappeared for more than two full years.

Liang Hong didn't know Song Lan's origin, let alone his whereabouts.It's not that he didn't directly ask the shop assistants who followed him from the beginning, but got vague and varied answers.But no matter what, there is one thing that everyone firmly believes——

"Brother Song and Brother Xie will be back."

Liang Hong was a smart and sensitive person, she seemed to have vaguely guessed something, and then she stopped asking, and only concentrated on doing her own job well.After all, Song Lan left everything to her before leaving, so of course she couldn't let them down.

She has indeed done a good job. Within two years, the shadow bookstore has dozens of overseas branches, and the shadow group has been established. The business scope covers entertainment, catering and other industries. The speed of development is comparable to that of a rocket. To manage, it can't do better.

His eyes couldn't help moving from the window to the wall opposite the desk, on which hung a huge framed photo with an enlarged group photo inside.There was a group photo of her on the office wall of the Great Book Industry Alliance before, but the people on it were different.Now this group photo was specially taken by Song Lan and Xie Daonian before they left. All the old employees of the Shadow Bookstore were in it. The two equally handsome and handsome men were surrounded by the crowd, smiling vigorously and energetically.

"When are you coming back?" she whispered, not expecting any answers.

I didn't want to, but a long-lost familiar voice sounded behind me: "We're back."

The author has something to say:

After more than four months of serialization, it finally came to an end. I was a little excited and a little bit sad after finishing the writing.The original intention of writing this article is actually to satisfy one of my long-cherished wishes: to own a bookstore.

I don’t know if you who are reading the article have such a dream. One day in the future, you can open a bookstore. It doesn’t need to be too big, but it must have coffee, sunshine, and preferably a few cats.

Whenever I go to a strange place, I will deliberately search for various literary and distinctive bookstores. I have been to large chain bookstores occupying several floors of shopping malls, and to small private libraries hidden in old bungalows deep in alleys. Every bookstore will make me linger for a long time, which further deepens my dream of opening a bookstore.

Of course, it is very difficult to realize such a dream in reality, and objective and subjective factors are blocking it. Maybe I will never actually open a bookstore in my life, but fortunately, I can put this dream into writing.

The shadow bookstore cannot be said to contain all my fantasies about the ideal bookstore, but it is almost the same.I don't know if you can get happiness from the development of Shadow Bookstore, at least I was very happy when I conceived it.

The story of the shadow bookstore is over here, but my dream is not yet.I hope that you who are reading this article can boldly pursue your dreams, and wish your dreams come true.

See you in the next article.

By the way, there are two extra episodes to come, don’t miss it~

The next chapter will start "Saving the World Today", roll around for collection!
