It's past six in the evening.
Star City.
At Liu Shiling's house.
The mother and daughter had just finished dinner. After tidying up and washing the dishes, Shiling's mom sat down in the living room. Liu Shiling came up to her, holding a thick, glossy, colored hardcover encyclopedia, asking her mom to read it to her.
This encyclopedia, thick as a brick, was Xiang Kun's New Year's gift to the little girl.
Honestly, when they first received this book, Shiling's mom was slightly surprised. She hadn't expected the book to be this thick, this many volumes, and she certainly hadn't expected the wealth of content within.
Based on previous experience, Liu Shiling was not interested in books with a lot of words — she couldn't understand them anyway.
Basically, the books that Xiang Kun sent were meant to be part of the decor. In time, when Liu Shiling started elementary school and could read these books, she might perhaps look through them.
