Although there are a lot of crystals that I want to pick up, this is nothing to a crystal gem shop. Even if I count them one by one and go back and forth ten times, it won't take so long, right?
Ning Zhishui's attitude was too repulsive, which made Dongfang Jing have a lot to say, but he didn't have the right time.

I didn't expect that her temperament would be so cold when she was young. So it turns out that this is not the erosion of time, but is she born like this?
You have to be restrained and not be too enthusiastic. It will scare her and make her suspect that she has ulterior motives.

Dongfang Jing lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea.

After a while, there was a noise at the door.

Dongfang Jing put down the tea cup quickly, even though he was anxious, but the tea cup still didn't make a big sound after it fell on the table.

He stood up and went to open the door. When he opened the door, the shopkeeper's hand happened to be on the door, but it was empty.

"Son—"

What are you doing, sir?
"Why have you been here for so long, but something went wrong?" Dongfang Jing asked, winking at Shopkeeper Liu.

"Ah...oh, something went wrong."

As Shopkeeper Liu spoke, he silently blocked the box he was holding behind his back.

Then he received the box into the universe space.

"What's going on? What went wrong?"

Ning Zhishui stood up and walked towards the door.

When she saw Shopkeeper Liu with empty hands, she was a little speechless.

After spending most of this time, I came back empty-handed?
Where are the crystal tickets? Where did they go? ?
"Uh... something went wrong..."

How do I know something is wrong!Young Master, please give me a word!

Shopkeeper Liu frowned, raised his voice, and then looked at Dongfang Jing's expression.

But Ning Zhishui was standing next to him, and Dongfang Jing couldn't make any more moves. He just smiled gently and waited for him to speak.

"There was an error in the accounts." Shopkeeper Liu put his mind to it, "The people below made an error, the accounts are a bit confusing, and the amount of crystals you have is a bit large, so I'm afraid I won't be able to exchange them in a short time."

"How long will it take to get better?" Ning Zhishui frowned.

She still has to withdraw money to pay the deposit for Gao Yue's materials!
"Miss Ning, is there something urgent?" Dongfang Jing asked.

"Ah."

"It's better than this. You leave an address and someone will come to your door after the settlement is completed by Shopkeeper Liu. Shopkeeper Liu, how long will it take you to finish the calculation at the earliest?" Dongfang Jing said.

If you don’t tell me, how would I know how fast I can be?

Shopkeeper Liu glanced at Dongfang Jing and didn't see the reminder, so he thought about it for a while, "At the fastest half an hour..."

When the word "hour" came up, he saw that Dongfang Jing didn't refute, so he felt relieved.

"Half an hour, okay?" Dongfang Jing asked Ning Zhishui.

"Okay, but you don't have to send it to my house. I'm going to a shop to buy materials later. Just ask someone to find me in that shop." Ning Zhishui said, "But the ink tablets have to be returned to me first. I need to Exchange your crystal tickets with me."

"Okay, then tell me the location of the shop." Shopkeeper Liu agreed.

Ning Zhishui told Gao Yue about his shop.

"Let's exchange transmission notes. I'll send you crystal tickets later so we can keep in touch." Dongfang Jing said.Ning Zhishui was stunned for a moment, and Shopkeeper Liu also widened his eyes.

"...Are you going to deliver it to me?" Ning Zhishui was confused.

"Ah, yes, I trust him more, so it's just right to leave it to him. The amount is too big, and ordinary clerks are clumsy, so I'm afraid of getting into trouble." Shopkeeper Liu explained with a smile.

That's true, after all, 20 crystal stones can buy several lives. Unreliable people really can't do this job.

Ning Zhishui thought this was very reasonable, so he exchanged communication notes with Dongfang Jing.

"Please hurry up. I might not be able to stay in the shop for long," she said.

"No problem, I'll go as soon as possible." Dongfang Jing agreed readily.

But Ning Zhishui gave him a strange look.

This matter...you have nothing to say, right?
Dongfang Jing reacted, glanced at the shopkeeper, and said with a smile: "Don't underestimate our shopkeeper, he does things very quickly. He will only start half an hour earlier and not later. Right, shopkeeper?"

"……Yes."

"That's good." Ning Zhishui nodded.

After putting away the ink cards, Ning Zhishui went downstairs.

When she arrived on the first floor, she saw that there were still many monks coming to exchange crystal stones, and they did not stop.

She had doubts for a moment——

Didn't it mean that there was an error in the account and it couldn't be redeemed?

But then I thought about the shopkeeper saying that it was because his amount was too high, and I understood.

As soon as he walked out of Jingxing, he saw Meng Dong and Cheng Taoyue standing at the corner looking at him.

"Are you waiting for me?" Ning Zhishui asked with raised eyebrows.

She had wasted a lot of time in there, and these two people hadn't left yet, so that was the only possibility.

"Zhishui, is this why you don't want to play with us anymore?" Meng Dong asked.

She and Cheng Taoyue looked at Ning Zhishui with complicated eyes.

"What's the reason?" Ning Zhishui asked.

"What other reason could there be, isn't it just because you have money?" Cheng Taoyue sarcastically said, "We don't know where you got so much money, but as soon as you got rich, you immediately drew a clear line with us. , what does this mean? Ning Zhishui, I really didn’t realize you were such a person!"

"Yes, Zhishui, we never disliked you when your conditions were not good before, but now that you are just a little bit better, you have turned your back on us and disowned us. This is so sad." Meng Dong also said sadly.

"I want to draw a clear line with you even when my conditions are not good." Ning Zhishui said.

The two were stunned.

"Meng Dong, you rely on your good background. Although the three of us are your friends, you have never looked down on us. You once compared the three of us with the servants in your family in public, but later said it was a joke. Do you still remember? "Ning Zhishui asked, "If you think this is a joke, what would you think if I compared you to the Miss Liu family in the east of the city who is known as a salt-free person?"

"And you, Cheng Taoyue! Your mother was born in Hualou, and you feel inferior to your own life experience. Later, your father's cultivation level broke through and entered the Meng family. You also felt proud and proud, and you wished you could reverse all your previous inferiority complex. So. I look down on everyone, and my words are extremely mean... But I have never disliked your life experience. You have not become humble because of your mother's background, and you will not become noble because of your father's cultivation. You are who you are. .”

"Just because I haven't left before doesn't mean I don't want to leave. I'm not leaving this time because of crystal stones. I just thought about it. I feel like I'm not the same person as you, so I don't have to force myself to stay together. Friends are meant to be together. I don’t think I owe you anything, and you don’t have to accuse me as if I’ve done something wrong.”
