Liu Li brought Bai Ruyue into the study quietly and pointed to a bookshelf on the other side. Bai Ruyue understood immediately and started to clean up.
Most of the books on the shelves were neatly arranged, but some were scattered.
Bai Ruyue had only opened it to correct the situation, but she quickly discovered that the books on the shelves were placed at the top of the shelves too casually — there were many similar types of books that could be placed together!
Thus, she began to consciously arrange them according to the category. Although this would delay her by a lot of time, it would be very easy to find.
Moreover, she not only arranged the items by type, but also rearranged them by type. For example, the weaponsmithing books had armored armors beside them, unlike the formation spell books from before.
The reason why she was adjusting this way was because she was used to it.
Yes, habit, a habit that Qing Moyan cultivated for her!
When she followed him, she discovered that Qing Moyan loved to read books. Other than being immersed in the six techniques, all of his free time was spent on reading books.
She followed him. Not only did she like reading, but she also liked the way he placed the books — Convenient, you can find the book you want to read as soon as possible. The goal was accurate, and it saved up a lot of time.
Therefore, at that time, Bai Ruyue was already used to setting up such bookshelves, so after tidying them up for a while, she had completely followed her own habits.
But her efficiency was very slow, when Liu Li finished arranging most of the books in front of Bai Ruyue, she had only organized two bookshelves, and many of the books were pushed onto the table by her because they were categorized accordingly.
Seeing this, Liu Li had no choice but to tug on her sleeve and ask in a low voice, "What are you doing?"
"Organizing the bookshelves?" Bai Ruyue said softly. Just as Liu Li was about to speak, the Duke suddenly spoke out, "Liu Li, go to the Department of Defense's Patrol Office and tell them about the change in the demon race in the Wu Luo Mountain Range."
Liu Li immediately replied, then turned and looked at Bai Ruyue who was quickly leaving. Organizing the bookshelves was a small matter, sending the message was the most important matter, she did not dare delay any longer.
Once she left, Bai Ruyue continued to tidy up the bookshelves. She was very focused, to the point where the Prince put down the book in his hand and stared at her without blinking, even she did not know.
It took less than an hour before the two bookshelves on her side were cleaned up. Facing Liu Li's already packed shelves, she could totally avoid them, but her habits were scary. Looking at the messy books, she felt extremely uncomfortable.
So she began to tidy up the other bookshelves.
Time continued to pass minute by second, Bai Ruyue's mind was only filled with records of all kinds of books that were placed there, and she continuously corrected and played with them.
Behind her, the Prince had already left the desk and was walking up to the first two bookshelves she was working on.
Looking at how the books were arranged in an orderly manner, and then following the same principle as the books he was used to, he felt a burning passion in his heart.
He looked at Bai Ruyue in astonishment. Looking at her back figure who was arranging herself, it was as if he had seen the movements of a Ah Luan.
Then, as suddenly and mysteriously happened, when Bai Ruyue reached out to grab the book, he walked up to take it, and extended her hand to pass it to her. And because Bai Ruyue was too focused on categorizing the books, she didn't even notice that someone was helping him pass them over.
As a result, one handed out the book while the other placed down the book. The two teamed up even faster and the arrangement became smoother.
When a bookshelf was once again set up, the corner of Bai Ruyue's mouth curled up into a smile. She happily turned around and prepared to walk to the side, only to discover that there was Demon Suppressing King by her side.
"Prince?" She was surprised, but instead, the Demon Suppressing King calmly pointed towards the other bookshelves. "Continue!"
"Oh!" Bai Ruyue blankly replied and started to pack up the other bookshelves. Soon after, she saw that the Duke still hadn't left, and was right beside her.
She looked at him with a puzzled expression, wondering why the prince was still here. Could it be that he was afraid that she would steal the books?
At this point, the Prince extended his hand to grab the books on the highest shelf, then urged her, "Continue!"
Bai Ruyue was confused, but she still started to move. In the end, she only placed a few books on the table, and she finally realized why the Prince was standing there – he was handing over the books to her as her assistant!
"Your Highness, I don't dare to ask for your help!" Bai Ruyue was a little terrified — Wasn't she someone's servant now? Why did it feel like the prince had become his own servant!
"We've already helped for so long, you don't dare to help now? What were you doing long ago?! " As the prince spoke, he continued to hand over the book in his hands.
Thus, the two began to chat as they worked together.
"I was just paying attention to the categorization before starting. I really didn't notice …" Bai Ruyue's mouth was pouted, showing that she was very innocent.
"How can you hold a book like that?"
"Oh, that, Pill Sect! Back then when I was reading, I felt that it was especially convenient, so I wanted to give it to you in the same way so that you could find the books. " Bai Ruyue lied.
"Then what do you mean by putting all five of them upside down?" The Demon Suppressing King's voice actually trembled slightly.
"Count them all!" When I was searching for the book, I knew that it was the twenty-third book, so I didn't need to count it and just look for it behind the fourth book that's upside down! " Just as Bai Ruyue finished answering, the book in the prince's hands fell to the ground.
Bai Ruyue immediately bent down to pick it up. Before she could grab the book, her arm was grabbed by the Demon Suppressing King.
"Who taught you this method?" The voice was very loud, and the hand holding her arm was also very forceful. More importantly, the Prince's eyes were wide open, and Bai Ruyue could clearly feel his excitement.
"Prince, it hurts …" Bai Ruyue wasn't acting coquettishly, she was really in pain – it was as if her arm was being pinched by a demon clan crab monster!
"Speak!" The prince was shouting, he didn't care if her question hurt or not, he just wanted an answer.
Because this was the counting method that he had given to the Ah Luan back then, and because there were nearly a hundred books on every floor of his bookshelf!
"I, I thought about it!" Just as Bai Ruyue responded, her tears unconsciously flowed down because of the pain she was in …
In that moment, Demon Suppressing King's heart ached, and he subconsciously let go of her arm.
Bai Ruyue immediately grabbed onto her arm, looking as if she had just narrowly escaped death. "My prince, I only did that to make it easier to count. If you don't like it, I'll adjust immediately.
After she finished speaking, she took a sniff and turned around, wanting to adjust the bookshelf, but suddenly, a pair of hands embraced her from behind.
"Prince?" Bai Ruyue felt her mind went blank!
What was going on?
Your highness, hug me?
Hug me?
What the heck!
Bai Ruyue slowly turned her head around, almost as if her neck was going to break down at any moment …
"Don't move, just let me do this. Hug me!"
The Duke's voice actually trembled, but Bai Ruyue opened her mouth wide: "Duke, Duke, if you want to hug, that hand, can you please go down a little?"
