Gu Wan has never revealed her background to anyone. Even the owner of the restaurant could only identify her hometown from the accent she shows inadvertently. Miss Wan may have been born in Jiangsu or Zhejiang Province in China.
A beautiful woman in a busy restaurant is like a boat on a boundless river. She attracts the attention of many scholars, and the invitations she receives from these talented people range from literary banquets and poetry gatherings to journeys across the mountains and rivers.
But Gu Wan is not interested in any of that. In her spare time, she always dives into a sea of books and does not speak for hours. She only looks up from the book occasionally, with a rare smile on her face:
"I heard that there are a few new books published recently, do you want to go and have a look together?"
