Chapter 719 — - Saving His Life Is No Problem
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Shen Yushu had overheard the method Wei Zhao gave Li Cihua and was laughing so hard she nearly died. She felt she and Arrow-Brand Bro were so perfectly matched — both wicked through and through, and never so much as blinking when playing tricks on someone. At this rate, Li Dilei was going to end up riddled with holes.
Gu Mengyao and Tang Zhi too found it deeply satisfying. As long as no one was killed, punishing Li Dilei was more than deserved.
Wei Zhao parked his car in front of the night market street. As he pulled up, he spotted several modified sports cars — a couple of Hyundai Coupes, a Geely Beauty Leopard, and the like. He paused for a moment. They were probably the same group he had encountered last time. Feng Xiaoxiao had been among them then, but now a familiar figure was conspicuously absent.
He had no idea what Feng Xiaoxiao was doing in Yanjing City, or why she had been gone so long. When she was around, Wei Zhao had found her a bit of a nuisance. But now that she was gone — and just like that he no longer had a seatmate — he found he actually missed her. He had even promised to treat her to a meal.
Those people caught sight of Wei Zhao's Beetle but paid it little mind. It wasn't a sports car, and they had no interest in racing someone like that. They had clearly forgotten Wei Zhao already.
Wei Zhao and Tang Zhi walked behind, the Young Miss and Shen Yushu ahead, and the four of them entered the night market street.
When it came to the stall goods on Night Market Street, Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu had never bought anything before. In the past, whenever they came here, they headed straight for the snack street and never lingered among the stalls at all, so seeing it today, they found it quite novel and lively.
"The clothes here are so pretty! They're just like the newest styles from Hong Kong and Taiwan you see online — the shops don't even sell them!" Shen Yushu looked curiously at the clothes spread out on the stall.
"They're all knockoffs. The quality's far worse, and the price is only a tenth or even a hundredth of the real thing." Seeing Shen Yushu beaming as though she had stumbled on a treasure, Tang Zhi explained this to her, afraid she would be cheated.
"Is that so? Sister Yao, how about we buy a couple? Even if they're stall goods, other people will think we bought the real thing," Shen Yushu said.
Tang Zhi could not help sighing inwardly. It was true enough — Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu could wear ten-yuan stall clothes and no one would believe they were from a stall, but even if she herself wore the real thing, people would probably take it for a knockoff.
"Then let's have a look..." Gu Mengyao was rather tempted too; after all, many of the styles really were quite novel.
The four of them came to a stall that looked to be of decent quality. Tang Zhi picked out a pair of shorts for herself, while Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu each chose a pair of shorts and a T-shirt. They asked the price — three hundred yuan in all.
The young lady and Shen Yushu had no idea what such things were actually worth, and Tang Zhi was not much good at haggling, so the task of bargaining naturally fell to Wei Zhao.
"Could you make it a little cheaper?" Wei Zhao asked the owner.
"Two hundred eighty is the lowest," the owner said, having also seen that Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu were rich, and so he had not come down much.
"How much? Two hundred?" Wei Zhao repeated, flatly turning the owner's final "eighty" into the questioning particle "ba", and went on: "Two hundred's too expensive. One hundred fifty."
