Genius Doctor's Fifth Young Miss novel Chapter 8

: Book Pavilion

"You want to read?!" Sima Lie shouted aloud and started coughing as he choked on the food afterwhich he stared at her with a bewildered expression. His huge reaction made the whole kitchen focus on their Young Master, their interest piqued as they craned their necks and threw curious glances over.

In fact, one couldnt really blame them for their reactions as the other name Sima You Yue carried with it was trash and having only attended the Academy for two days, other than recognizing a few words, a book had never been seen in this Young Master's delicate hands, not to mention reading a whole book! A sudden mention of 'wanting to read a whole book' and 'going to the Book Pavilion' was shocking news indeed.

"Cough, cough." Sima Lie readjusted his mood and returned to his usual calm demeanor and said: "Since you want to have a look, lets go have a look."

As soon as he said it, he strode out of the kitchen in large steps as Sima You Yue quickly followed behind. They came before a large courtyard with three-storey building.

It was a simple looking building built in the middle of a plain looking yard, no one would have guessed that this inconspicuous building would be the Book Pavilion .

"Here we are the Book Pavilion." Sima Lie introduced as he flipped his hands and a large key suddenly appeared. After retrieving the key from his interspatial ring, he unlocked the door and gently pushed it open as the scent of musty books greeted them.

This was the first time she had been here, although the book Pavilion was located in between her courtyard and the main entrance, the past Sima You Yue had never once ventured in here.

"Here, this key belongs to you." Sima You Yue casually flipped his hands once again and retrieved another key and handed it over to her.

All the other four brothers each had a key to this place, however as she did not enjoy reading, this key was never passed to her, for fear that she might lose it.

Sima You Yue took the key and put it in her pocket. She could not cultivate and had no spiritual power hence she could not use the interspatial ring.

"Alright, go ahead and read whatever you want. Take your time, Ive still got some things that I have to do, I'll be in my study. If you need me, you know where to find me." Sima Lie turned to leave after granting her access.

Sima You Yue nodded and only after she watched his fading back did she turn to take a good look at the interior.

Although she knew that there were some problems with her current body, there were still some differences with the herbs and materials from her world and this, at least she hoped that they were merely name differences. She needed to know more about the differences in the properties as well and study these more thoroughly to be able to cure herself and rid of this 'trash' label herself.

Sima You Yue gaped in wonder as she looked at the interior of the Book Pavilion, who would have thought that the exterior which looked like any other common building but the interior was unexpectedly different! What attracted her attention most was that right in the middle of the Book Pavilion, there was actually a grand spiral staircase, which connected all four storeys, and each level had books that were placed in shelves that reached the ceiling. Such grandeur and splendour!

Moreover, the scale was totally different! From the outside it did not look as big as what she was currently looking at. Surprisingly, the size of the first floor was as large as that of a soccer field. Although each level got smaller, however the size of the top floor was still bigger than a basketball court!

Oh wow, what sorcery is this?! This is simply too mysterious! Sima You Yue cried out in shock as she tried to compose herself. This had outrightly defied her logic and common sense that she was used to. Ever since she's been in this world, everything had left her agape. Things that she had 'seen' from her memories were still foreign to her and it felt as if she was watching everything from a television and experiencing it herself still roused the adventurous spirit within her as her eyes sparkled with excitement. She was particularly fascinated by the vast disparity of scale and grandiose.

After she had finally regained her composure, she grew anxious. With so many books, where should I even start looking? If I had known earlier, I should have asked Grandfather. She sighed with regret as she looked on helplessly at the grand collection of books before her.

She started exploring the books on the shelves and after looking for a while, she discovered that the books were arranged according to different categories. If this row of books in this shelf was in one category, that following ten rows were in the similar category.

Haha, found it! She cried out in relief. After scouring for an entire two hours, she had finally found the category she had came here for! She earnestly started to look for the books she needed as she carefully combed the shelves that housed the medical related books.

She looked for quite some time until she found a book about the various herbs and materials for medicine and discovered that this whole shelf had the same genre of books.

Her stomach rumbled and she touched her belly as she groaned in defeat. She quickly pulled out several books and hugged them carefully and left the Book Pavilion, locking the door securely as she left.

By this time, day had already turned to night and it was completely dark outside. When Sima You Yue returned to her own courtyard, Yun Yue and Chun Jian noticed that in the arms of their Young Master were a pile of books. They hurried forward to assist, and asked: Young Master, would you like to have dinner now?
