"The chairman is too kind. But it has been quite an inconvenience for Zhong Lili to have to wait that long," Yuan Zhou muttered when he returned to the restaurant and picked up the case again.
The case had a pretty reddish-brown color, and from the glossy surface of the case, it was obvious it was made using the best timber.
"It even has a fragrance," Yuan Zhou said as he noticed the smell the case was emanating.
On the case was a copper buckle. Clack! Yuan Zhou unfastened the buckle and opened the case.
Yuan Zhou carefully opened the case, revealing the yellow papers within.
"It's really something from a long time ago," Yuan Zhou said as he studied the words on the front page.
Facing an ancient text, Yuan Zhou did not pick it up immediately. Rather, he closed the case again and carefully set the case down on the table. He then turned and went to the kitchen to wash his hands.
