The princess is so sweet and charming that she can't escape if she offends the prince.

Chapter 28 The Book of Answers
With Pei Jing's praise, Ruan Ning became more confident.

She pointed to the stage just now and said: "From now on, there will be limited-time performances there every day. What do you think of this format?"

Xiao Lan's pupils shrank slightly, thinking she was going to sing, and pursed her thin lips tighter. He had nothing to say, and could only hold back a few words: "Well... I wish you success."

Ruan Ning followed up and said: "I plan to arrange for the girls just now to sing. They were all selected by me and they have great singing skills."

Xiao Lan seemed to understand: "Didn't you sing?"

Ruan Ning didn't hear anything behind his words and said matter-of-factly: "Of course not. I'm the boss. There are so many things waiting for me to keep an eye on. How can I have time?"

Xiao Lan nodded slightly and blurted out: "That should be okay."

Ruan Ning didn't think much about what happened just now, but now she suddenly thought about it. She frowned and said, "No, my lord, what do you mean? What do you mean you can do it without me?"

Xiao Lan turned around and pretended not to hear her words, but said to Pei Jing: "I'm not going to the game area, let's go."

After saying that, he ignored Ruan Ning and left.

Ruan Ning stared at his back angrily. She definitely understood correctly. Xiao Lan was mocking her.

Pei Jing smiled knowingly when he saw this scene, moved closer to Ruan Ning, and comforted her: "He doesn't know the music, he is just jealous of you. You can sing very well. Keep up the good work."

The game area on the second floor is not small. It is a large area but is subdivided into several parts.

The things inside are all gaudy, and I have never seen anyone as playful as Pei Jing.

He pointed to a box containing a novel rag doll with a hook hanging on it and asked, "What is this?"

Waiter: "Sir, this is a claw machine. Every time you invest a penny, you can control the rocker to catch it once. If you catch it, it is yours."

Pei Jing yelled, then pointed to a group of people gathered around a table not far away, mumbling something to each other: "What's over there?"

Waiter: "There is Werewolf, which is a board game. Why don't you try it?"

Pei Jing shook his head and couldn't understand what he was trying to say. He then said, "Tell me about the others."

The waiter said respectfully: "This is the hoop area. One penny is a hoop. Stand outside the red line and throw the hoop. If you get the hoop, it's yours."

"There is a shooting area, so you can enjoy sports indoors."

"Further over here is the coin pusher. One penny and one game coin are dropped from the top. Whatever comes out of the chute can be exchanged for an equal number of copper plates."

We quickly walked to the last area, which was a small room with only a thick book inside.

Pei Jing had a question mark on his forehead: "What is this? Are people coming here to read a book?"

The waiter smiled and shook his head: "No, no, although this is a book, it is different from others, and there is only one in the world. This is the book of answers. No matter what question you ask, you will get the answer from it. "

Hearing this, Xiao Lan, who had been silent all this time, finally couldn't stand listening anymore. He raised the corners of his lips and said in disbelief: "Can you get answers to all questions? How can your book be so useful?"

The waiter was neither angry nor angry at Xiao Lan's question. He just smiled and said in a confidential manner: "This answer is not the other answer. You will know after you try it." After walking around, Pei Jing felt quite satisfied except for the werewolf killing. Interested, he patted Xiao Lan on the shoulder: "Let me just say that Miss Ruan is a wonderful person. How about making such an interesting thing? Come on, let's set a trap?"

Xiao Lan looked indifferent, shook her head firmly, and uttered two words from her thin lips: "Childish."

Seeing his bored look, Pei Jing didn't force it: "Okay, then you go shopping, I'll go play first."

Watching Pei Jing leave and start immersing himself in the game, Xiao Lan stood in the middle and felt that he was super redundant. He was already here, but he was quite interested in the book.

If he found out that it was deception or abduction, he would hand it over to the Yamen himself.

Xiao Lan approached the hut, took out a copper coin from his purse and handed it to the waiter. His voice was cold: "How do you use this book? Can you just open it?"

The waiter said and gestured: "You can close your eyes and meditate on the problem that has troubled you recently, pray sincerely, and then randomly open a page of the book, and the answer you want will be inside."

Xiao Lan snorted coldly, feeling more and more that this was a trick to deceive children.

He raised his hand and opened the book: "No, just open it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the book was opened, and a line of words suddenly appeared on it: If you understand it more carefully, you will know what to do.

Xiao Lan froze. What he had just asked was: Who is the murderer?

This seems to be the answer, but it is not.

The waiter next to him smiled at Xiao Lan: "Are you satisfied with the answer?"

Xiao Lan glanced at him and threw him another copper plate.

He thought silently in his mind: Is it still necessary to investigate the matter of ghost murder?

Turn it over and it says: If you can do it well, do it; if you can't, don't do it.

Xiao Lan: ...

After a stick of incense was passed, Pei Jing walked up to Xiao Lan excitedly: "Look, I caught two dolls and trapped three flower pots."

Xiao Lan lowered her eyes, looked at the trophy in his hand, and asked directly: "How much did it cost in total?"

Pei Jing replied: "One hundred articles."

Xiao Lan: "Are these things worth a hundred coins? Can't you just buy them if you need them?"

Pei Jing raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't understand. It's not about how much money you spend. It's about the sense of accomplishment. Besides, it's so exciting. Do you want to try it? I see there is a golden Buddha in the last row of the ring."

Pei Jing handed the things in his hand to the boy beside him and asked casually: "By the way, did you spend any money? You can't play with nothing."

When the subject of the conversation turned to Xiao Lan, Xiao Lan acted as if he was deaf again. He pretended not to hear Pei Jing's question and walked straight out, saying in a cold voice: "Okay, we're done playing, it's time to go back."

Xiao Lan looked serious on the outside, but he was full of drama on the inside: He would never let Pei Jing know that he spent five hundred words to read an entire book!
