The Lin family's little boy returns to being eight years old, taking his family to new heights.

Chapter 112 Bookstore Turmoil

Following her daughter's pointing finger, she saw a little girl wearing a white tracksuit and with her hair in a ponytail.

Her face was fair and tender, and her long eyelashes fluttered like two small fans.

She was flipping through the exam paper while biting her lip; it was incredibly cute.

"Oh my god, it really is Lin Xi! Come on, let Mom get you an autograph."

Little girl: Are you going to ask me for it, or do you want it yourself...?

She walked up to Lin Xi and said gently in a low voice, "Hello, little Lin Xi."

Lin Xi looked up and saw a well-dressed woman holding a cute little girl's hand. She smiled and replied, "Hello, Auntie, is there anything I can help you with?"

"My daughter is a fan of yours. She has read all your competitions and books. She admires you the most."

So, I ran into you in person, and I was so happy! I had to drag me over to get your autograph.

Lin Xi was surprised to have fans. She patted the little girl's head and said, "Thank you for your support. Where can I get an autograph?"

The woman casually picked up the book she had just bought, tore open the packaging, and then took out a lipstick from her bag.

"Sign here."

Lin Xi's lips twitched when she saw the lipstick brand.

"Auntie, why don't you borrow a pen from someone? This lipstick is quite expensive..."

"No, use this one."

Well, as long as she doesn't feel bad about it.

Even with lipstick, the writing is still perfectly straight, as neat as if it were printed.

The woman was very happy and happily took her daughter away.

The little girl, a fan of Lin Xi, didn't say a word the whole time.

After returning home, the woman enshrined the book and lipstick, letting her daughter touch and look at them every day.

I hope to absorb Lin Xi's talent.

After the two left, two little girls who had been chirping crickets for a while also walked over shyly.

"Sister Lin Xi, could you please sign your name for me?"

The little boy, who had been secretly peeking at the book for a while, stopped pretending to flip through it and ran over excitedly, shouting, "Sister Lin Xi, I want an autograph too!"

The little boy couldn't control his voice, and all the parents and children on the second floor looked in their direction.

"Hey, this kid looks familiar. Isn't he the one who was on TV a while ago, the one who..."

"Oh, it's Lin Xi, the Lin Xi who won the National Mathematical Olympiad."

"Yes, she wrote the Complete Book of Inspiration."

“Then I’ll have to get an autograph too, and stick it on my son’s bedside.”

"I'm going too, I'm going too!"

……

Suddenly, a large group of people swarmed around them.

Lin Xi, who is socially anxious, was a little scared, but she was too embarrassed to refuse, so she signed and thanked everyone.

But people, after all, love to watch a spectacle.

It was rare to see a group of people gathered together in a bookstore, so everyone crowded around to see what was going on.

As a result, more and more people gathered.

The commotion caught the attention of the staff, who, upon crossing the crowd, spotted a familiar little girl.

Huh? Isn't that Lin Xi, Teacher Fu's little apprentice?

Without saying a word, he hurriedly turned around and ran to the top floor, knocked on the office door, and, leaning on the door frame, said breathlessly, "Mr. Gu, your...your junior sister is here, she's being surrounded on the second floor!"

Gu Zheng thought his junior sister had been bullied, so he ran downstairs in a flash.

Upon reaching the second floor, they saw their junior sister surrounded by a group of people.

He looked somewhat nervous and panicked, but he still managed to force a smile as he signed autographs and reminded everyone to be careful.

Also, that man's notebook was practically shoved into the junior sister's face.

His face immediately turned cold, and he shouted, "What are you doing? This is a bookstore, not a fan meeting. Move aside!"

Lin Xi's eyes lit up when she saw it was her second senior brother; she felt like a powerful backer had arrived.

Ignoring the disapproving looks from others, Gu Zheng swaggered away and dragged Lin Xi away.

He didn't care whether he offended customers or not; the bookstore was just something he did for fun anyway.

Lin Xi wiped the sweat from her forehead. "Second Senior Brother, thank you so much! You came just in time!"

Even though Gu Zheng was worried about her, he still looked disgusted. "Little brat, why did you come alone? And why didn't you tell me before you came?"

“I didn’t come alone. Brother Yan Feng brought me here. He’ll come back to find me when he’s done with his work.”

"Who's Yan Feng? When did you get an older brother?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a very serious-looking man strode over, grabbed Lin Xi, and looked at her warily.

This person was Yan Feng.

He couldn't find Lin Xi and was about to ask the staff when he saw her standing at the top of the stairs on the third floor with a stranger, which made him a little worried.

As a police officer, suspicion has become an instinct; what if the man had ill intentions?

Lin Xi explained at the right moment, "Brother Yan Feng, he is my second senior brother, and he owns this bookstore."

The wariness in Yan Feng's eyes immediately disappeared.

After glancing up and down, Gu Zheng rolled his eyes at Yan Feng, then pulled Lin Xi over and said, "Come on, junior sister, what books do you want to buy? I'll help you pick them out."

Who is he? He saw that expression just now; he actually mistook him for a bad guy.

He was the junior sister's rightful second senior brother, and they were very close. He was much better than this brother who came from who-knows-where.

If anyone should be suspicious, it should be him who's suspicious of him!

Yan Feng touched his nose, not understanding why this person was dissatisfied with him.

Lin Xi turned around, gave Yan Feng a helpless and apologetic look, and then pointed to her own head, implying that this person wasn't very bright.

That's how her second senior brother is; he's always dissatisfied with everyone. At first, she thought he was mentally ill.

In reality, she's just too arrogant. She was spoiled by her family since childhood, and she does things too arbitrarily, but she has a kind heart.

Lin Xi selected more than fifty test papers, covering all subjects from the three years of junior high school.

Yan Feng asked in surprise, "So many, can you... finish them all?"

Lin Xi didn't take it seriously, "It'll be done in about two months."

Gu Zheng had witnessed his junior sister's extraordinary learning ability before, so he wasn't surprised. Instead, he looked at Yan Feng provocatively.

"Hmph, you call yourself a brother? You really don't know our Xiaoxi."

Lin Xi shook her head helplessly. She was such a jealous person; even if there was no vinegar, she would produce some herself to drink.

With Gu Zheng there, Lin Xi naturally didn't need to pay. She walked straight out of the bookstore and said goodbye to Gu Zheng.

Yan Feng opened the car door and was about to put the book on the back seat when Gu Zheng snatched it away, saying, "Junior Sister, I'll take you home."

Then, she glanced at Yan Feng casually, "With me here, there's no need to trouble outsiders."

Yan Feng knew this guy wasn't very bright, so he didn't argue with him. "Alright, then thank you for your trouble."

Upon hearing this, Gu Zheng immediately bristled like a kitten, "What are you saying? I'm taking my own junior sister here, what's so hard about it! You're the one who's been working hard, it's your fault for bringing her here."

Yan Feng chuckled and shook his head, saying nothing more, then turned and got into his car and left.

Gu Zheng was still bothered by this, and on the way back he told Lin Xi not to casually acknowledge anyone as her brother.

Lin Xi was too lazy to explain to him, and obediently said that she liked her second senior brother the most.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Gu Zheng's lips curled up and he stopped nagging.
