Shaking all sorts of items inside his dimension
pouch, Innkeeper Zhu politely bid the associate dean farewell. He didn’t want
any unexpected incidents.
Liu Tianshan and the others did not forget to
collect the lunch boxes to bring with them. He believed that what just happened
would be a common occurrence in the future.
After they have depart, everybody was full. The ones
who only had 1 lunch box wish they’ve had more. The ones that had 2 patted
their belly in a satisfying manner. The meal was expensive, but it was
certainly delicious.
Mu Qingtong seemed to be in much better mood after
he ate. Smacking his lips, he said, “How come there’s only food but no water? A
bottle of mystical water would be perfect right about now!”
“You want water? I got some here!”
An irritating voice came from the woods. It was then
when they realized there was someone else in the woods.
Especially the associate dean, his eyes widened and
watched Cheng Xiao Xiao descended from the tree in surprise. He had no idea
since when has she arrived in the woods.
At that moment, the associate dean realized he had
underestimated the little brat.
“Well, old man, you want some water?” Cheng Xiao
Xiao lifted her brows slightly and asked under his peculiar look.
“Yes, of course. You are going to charge one
mystical stone for one bottle of water?” asked the associate dean calmly.
“You are smart, old man!” Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled and
continued, “But you are wrong. This time it isn’t one stone for one bottle of
water, it’s two!”
“Why don’t you go rob!”
A chubby guy shouted out. Hearing that, Cheng Xiao
Xiao looked at him from the corner of his eyes and smiled, “I do want to, but I
still need targets that I can rob from. In any case, I didn’t rob you. If you
want water, you will have to buy them. If you don’t, I won’t force you either!”
“Hrm, hrm. Who said I don’t want any. So what if it
costs 2 mystical stones? I can afford it!” The chubby guy disgruntledly fished
out 2 mystical stones and tossed them
over.
Cheng Xiao Xiao reached out and caught the money
before tossing him the water bottle, “Don’t throw away the water bottle when
you are done. Otherwise you will have to provide your won water bottle next
time.”
“Fine! Whatever!” The chubby guy hurriedly twisted
open the bottle and started gulping down the water. Over half of the water in
the bottle was gone in no time.
After he had enough, he rubbed his mouth and smiled,
“Boy, was that satisfying!”
Looking at the way he drank made others want to buy
water but they still felt that it was too expensive. All she did was to draw
the water from a well and she wanted to sell it to them for 2 stones? That was
way too expensive.
That being said, human needs water, especially right
after a meal. Everybody wanted to have some water, but didn’t want to pay for
them. All the students turned and looked at the associate dean and hooped he
would stand up for them and have the water distributed to them instead of sold
to them.
But they were doomed to be disappointed, even the
associate dean had reached into his pouch and produced two mystical stones for
water.
Helplessness, unreconciled, unjust, anger were some
of the emotions felt by the crowd, yet they produced their own goods to trade
for mystical water nonetheless.
Not too long, everybody had bought a bottle of water.
They drank the water satisfyingly; Cheng Xiao Xiao collected her payment
satisfyingly. These type of trade was more satisfying than robbing someone;
even though Cheng Xiao Xiao had never robbed anyone, but she felt that this
topped robbing.
All but one person bought water from her. Nobody
knew whether it was intentional on Cheng Xiao Xiao’s part, or that he didn’t
want to buy it from her. That one person was Gu Junxian.
