Chu Yao's lips curved up in a smug smile, "You're still young. Read more books to enrich yourself."
After basking in the glory of looking profound, Chu Yao planned to go find Nan Jiaojiao and her company, but Qu Xiaoxiao followed her, eager to learn, "Sister Yao, what books should I read? Could you recommend a couple for me?"
Chu Yao instinctively paused.
