Wang Zheng's previous statements were vague; he only mentioned that he found an opportunity to bring Chu Tianxing back, without providing much detail about the dangerous situation at the time.
Moreover, Chu Jingnan did not know Wang Zheng's actual strength at the time; he only thought that the kid had escorted the injured old man back.
Therefore, Chu Jingnan was not too surprised at the time.
Knowing that his father was injured, Chu Jingnan said that this was the best outcome, but he was still secretly keeping an eye on the old man.
This long-awaited concern was met with a torrent of abuse from Chu Tianxing, who was even more sensitive after his injury.
"That kid risked his life to save me, am I not as good as a 16-year-old?"
"Don't keep hanging around here. You annoy me. At your age, don't you have anything better to do? Don't you need to cultivate anymore? Or have you secretly advanced to the Transcendent level without my knowledge?"
Chu Jingnan: "..."
Although the two parted on bad terms once again, this brief conversation made Chu Jingnan realize how much favor Wang Zheng owed him.
Thinking of this, Chu Jingnan lost all interest in haggling.
"Let's do it your way. The credits will be directly credited to your student ID after the semester starts. You won't be able to use the credits given to you during the holiday."
You don't need to worry about what's here. I'll have someone clean it up in a bit. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now. You should go cultivate early too..."
Chu Jingnan's quick agreement surprised Wang Zheng.
This Da Chu is usually a stingy and miserly person, just like Old Man Chu.
Wang Zheng still remembers that when he didn't have enough credits, he went to the management office to borrow a pair of underwear made of exotic animal skin. He talked himself hoarse and it took him a whole week to get it on credit.
He was well aware of Chu Jingnan's perverse tastes.
Chu Jingnan's decisive manner made Wang Zheng suspect a trick, and he felt a slight loss of the satisfaction he had felt after successfully negotiating the price.
'Is Da Chu trying to steal my materials? Right now, there's no evidence; what if they deny it later?'
For a moment, Wang Zheng, who had achieved his goal, began to feel somewhat insecure.
This guy is a complete scoundrel. When people refused to give him credit, he called them stingy. Now that they agreed to give him a high price, he's started being suspicious again.
"Wait, Great Chu, are you thinking of..."
Chu Jingnan turned around and looked at Wang Zheng expressionlessly when he heard him speak.
"What's wrong? Don't you trust me, or do you think I'm getting a great deal? If you have a change of heart and think I'm charging too much, how about I round it down to half?"
Wang Zheng now wished he could slap himself a few times. Why didn't he just tell the person to leave obediently? He had to be so foul-mouthed!
He just spoke faster than he thought, and before he knew it, he blurted out what he had just been thinking.
Seeing that Chu Jingnan had actually stopped, Wang Zheng's mind raced.
Then, with an embarrassed smile, he said:
"How could that be? You're overthinking it, Teacher Chu. I just have something I'd like to ask you about."
You are very knowledgeable and have been in charge of all the supplies coming in and out of the school. Your knowledge is definitely much greater than that of a mere student like me.
It was a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue, please don't take it to heart..."
Sometimes, age really is a protective shield. Looking at Wang Zheng's ingratiating smile, even though his tone had been somewhat impolite, Chu Jingnan didn't mind. Instead, he smiled and said:
"Speak your mind, or spit it out!"
You know perfectly well whether you made a slip of the tongue or not!
"You're strong now, so you can call me whatever you want. I heard you used to call Old Man Chu a lot behind his back, right..."
Wang Zheng's eyes darted around as he looked at Chu Jingnan's smiling face, and he felt a chill run down his spine.
'It must be that traitor Chu Xiaoman! She'll get what's coming to her next time we meet!'
Upon seeing the bundle of black, venomous python skins in his storage space, he immediately had an explanation. However, unable to resist his suicidal impulse, he whispered:
"Um, Teacher Chu, I just wanted to ask, the animal skin pants I ordered from the school before were of poor quality. They tore after I went to Yunnan. I was wondering if the school offers any warranty service?"
Chu Jingnan smiled even more broadly as he watched Wang Zheng push his luck.
He also wanted to see if this kid was really as capable as he imagined, so he took two steps back again and asked in return:
What do you think?
Seeing that he looked like he wanted to fight him and had already started to gather spiritual energy, causing ripples of air to flow in the enclosed underground space, Wang Zheng quickly waved his hand.
"It's okay if you don't, Teacher Chu, don't get excited, I was just asking casually."
By the way, could you introduce me to some of the masters who made those sets before? I have my own materials and would like to make a few more sets as backup…
"Hey~ calm down, if you keep this up I'm going to activate my counter-damage!"
