Brush Up Your Proficiency

Wang Hao had a simple understanding of the Reading skill, which immediately gave him confidence. Although he knew this skill would be difficult to level up, its powerful function was irresistible.

Just for this point alone, Wang Hao felt he could accept it no matter how difficult it was. To know that he could turn reading into a kind of pleasure, a kind of enjoyment, was a capability that countless parents dreamed of and couldn't even ask for.

"Hehe!" Wang Hao chuckled to himself. He felt that with such a skill, he might even become an intellectual in the future.

He looked at the time and realized he could still grind for a while, or rather, enjoy himself for a while longer.

So, he quickly walked to the bookshelf, grabbed three books in one go, then found an empty seat and eagerly opened the first book to start reading.

As he delved deeper into the reading, the skill slowly began to take effect. The words in the book seemed like happy little elves, dancing gracefully on the pages.

Wang Hao gradually immersed himself in the world of the book, completely forgetting everything around him.

His thoughts flew with the flow of the words, as if he were in a series of wonderful scenes.

This sense of immersion reduced his perception of the outside world, and he didn't even notice the passage of time. The system notifications were also automatically ignored by him.

By the time he had just finished the second book, Wang Hao pulled his mind out of the book, ready to stretch and continue enjoying the wonders of the third book, when he suddenly found that there were far fewer people around.

He looked at the time and exclaimed, "Wow, it's already past 5 PM!"

Wang Hao couldn't help but sigh, "How did it get so late? I feel like I just sat down not long ago..."

He shook his head, feeling somewhat sentimental.

Sure enough, happy times are always too short. When reading also becomes a happy thing, the time spent reading also seems to shorten in perception.

However, this kind of experience filled him with enthusiasm and anticipation for reading, and made him realize the infinite joy that reading brings.

Checking his proficiency, he already had 4 points. He had taken four steps on the long march, which was not bad.

After selecting a few books that were relatively famous on the bestseller list, Wang Hao prepared to check out and go back.

Having adapted to the atmosphere of the bookstore, Wang Hao no longer felt the initial restraint. Instead, he felt quite comfortable and thought that he could come here more often to read if he had time in the future.

Just as Wang Hao was about to casually pick two books to take home, he suddenly heard someone call his name.

He turned around at the sound and saw a woman with a plump figure and a pretty face standing behind him.

Wang Hao looked at the familiar face and couldn't recognize who she was for a moment. But since she knew his name, he must know her too. So, Wang Hao, with a look of confusion, still couldn't figure it out and directly asked, "You are?"

He had seen too many different kinds of people, so Wang Hao sometimes had a slight face-blindness symptom. He had gradually forgotten the appearance of some people who had appeared in his life before.

The woman didn't seem surprised that Wang Hao didn't recognize her. She smiled and said,

As time passed, Wang Hao's thoughts gradually drifted away, and an image gradually appeared in his mind.

This image made him feel very familiar. After thinking carefully, it turned out to be the prettiest girl in his class when he was in junior high school.

If she were in this era, she would definitely be the undisputed class beauty.

Gradually, the image in his mind began to overlap with the woman in front of him.

"Class Monitor Qin? It really is you! I really wouldn't have recognized you if you hadn't said so. It must have been more than ten years since we last met!" Wang Hao said excitedly, his face full of smiles.

Although Wang Hao was a little excited in the bookstore, he didn't dare to speak too loudly. He lowered his voice and said softly, "So many years have passed, I didn't expect us to meet again."

Time flies, and so many changes have taken place in the past ten years.

Wang Hao still remembered that he used to tease Qin Ge, and as a result, Qin Ge chased him to hit him.

Looking back at those scenes now, it seems like everything happened yesterday, but in reality, it has been a long time.

However, the changes of time have caused great changes in their appearance and temperament, so that now when the two meet, they can only determine each other's identity through guessing.

Qin Ge couldn't help but feel a little regretful. She slowly opened her mouth and said, "Yes, it has indeed been many years. Since graduating from junior high school, we have never met again, and I don't have your contact information. Even if I occasionally participate in class reunions, I can't see you."

After speaking, she took out her phone and signaled to Wang Hao to add him as a friend on EarthChat.

Wang Hao understood and directly took out his phone to scan it. It was fate to be able to see classmates who had not been seen for many years.

"Do you still like to read now?" Wang Hao asked with a smile while operating his phone to transfer money.

"I don't read much now. This time, I brought my child here to buy some calligraphy books and take a look." Qin Ge said, pointing to a place not far away.

Next to the calligraphy books was a little boy who was picking and choosing, and he looked to be eight or nine years old.

Wang Hao turned his head and looked over, and immediately said with a look of surprise, "I really didn't expect your child to be so old!"

Looking at his former classmate, whose child was now so old, Wang Hao couldn't help but sigh.

Everyone's life is like a straight line, and the school is like an intersection of many straight lines. After a brief acquaintance, the straight lines begin to develop in different directions after graduation, and there are no more intersections.

Waiting for an accidental meeting one day, all that remains is sighing and nostalgia.

Qin Ge laughed as a matter of course: "I got married as soon as I graduated from university. Calculating the time, the child should be this old, what's so surprising."

"How about you, how are you doing now? If you have time, bring your wife out and let us take a look." Qin Ge was curious about what kind of person Wang Hao would find as his wife.

Wang Hao, who was hit in a sore spot, couldn't help but cough lightly and smiled awkwardly, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Qin Ge looked at Wang Hao in front of her. He was of standard build, neither tall nor short, but of medium height. Although his appearance didn't look as handsome in the traditional sense, he was still the kind that could be seen.

In addition, she vaguely felt Wang Hao's temperament, so he shouldn't be single!
