Chapter 13 What does this person's smiling face mean?
The quality of this mountain ghost coin is indeed rare, and Qing Yanrou doesn't want to miss it.
She had already used one million of the five million given by the Ning family to renovate the entire Taoist temple.
There are still four million left in that card, and there are still more than 200,000 in bonuses given by the college entrance examination school and the government.
"Boss, how much does this mountain ghost cost?"
"Are you serious about buying this, little girl?"
Although the boss said so much to Qing Yanrou, he never thought that she could buy it. After all, she was just a high school student dressed simply, so how much money could she have?
The boss saw that she looked cute and was not angry that someone else had gotten the antique jade he had liked before, so he chatted with her for a while.
"Boss, name your price."
In fact, Qing Yanrou was a little unsure whether the money she had on hand was enough, but it was rare for this mountain ghost to spend money, and she didn't want to miss it.
"Three million..." The boss pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and tentatively stretched out three fingers.
"Okay, deal. I'll add a little more, three and a half million. Can I use a credit card, boss?"
The price the boss offered was within her affordability, which was also her good luck. Mountain ghosts always have high prices but low demand, so this trip was worth it.
Knowing that this was someone else's life-saving money, Qing Yanrou not only did not lower the price, but also raised a little appropriately within her own affordability.
Before the boss recovered from his shock, he saw a bank card handed to him.
He really didn't expect that he could sell it. The young man said that two million would be enough, after all, the life-saving money was waiting to be used.
The reason why he asked for three million was that he thought Qing Yanrou was teasing him, and secondly, to prevent others from lowering the price.
But he didn't expect that Qing Yanrou not only did not lower the price, but instead offered an extra 500,000, which shocked him.
After swiping the card blankly, the boss came to his senses and said excitedly, "Little girl, I thank you on his behalf. This money can really solve his urgent needs!"
"Please help me wrap it up, thank you."

Qing Yanrou bought what she liked and prepared to leave, but she had no idea what birthday gift to give to the Taoist priest.
It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when I walked out of the antique city. Just as I took out my phone to take a taxi, I received a WeChat message from Chu Tingbai.
Chu Tingbai: Are you done?
Qing Xiaorou:?
Chu Tingbai: I would like to invite you to dinner to thank you for letting Jing Huai be reborn into the Ning family.
Qing Xiaorou: I don’t have that much ability yet…
I actually have the ability to control reincarnation? Qing Yanrou herself was also shocked.
Chu Tingbai: Thank you anyway. (Smiles)
Qing Yanrou's hand trembled as she held the phone. What did this cold-faced master mean? Wasn't he fine at noon? What did he mean by smiling now?
Qing Xiaorou: You're welcome. I'm just paying you for the service. (Smiles)
Chu Tingbai: Can we have dinner together? I have a few questions.
Chu Tingbai: Paid.
Qing Yanrou deleted the message in the dialog box that she was about to reject and retyped: Okay, give me a location and I'll come to find you.
After receiving the location, Qing Yanrou took a taxi directly. While waiting for the taxi, she was too bored, so she practiced the Taoist magic that the ancestor had just taught her in her mind.
“Ah, that hurts!”
A sudden exclamation interrupted her thoughts.
I saw a beautifully dressed girl suddenly squatting down behind her, looking at the boy walking with her with tears in her eyes and looking pitiful.
Haha, isn’t this the person who just rushed to buy the ancient jade!
Qing Yanrou turned around leisurely and looked at Bai Xinyi who had sprained her ankle.
He has a bad fortune, no blessings from his ancestors, and yet he has to carry that piece of bad luck ancient jade with him. How unlucky he is!
"Brother Nanfeng, I sprained my ankle and can't walk." Bai Xinyi looked at the man in front of her with a tearful expression and spoke in a coquettish tone.
To Qing Yanrou, it didn't sound like he was in so much pain that he couldn't walk, but rather like he was asking for sex. There was none of the arrogance he had just shown in Yimingtang, which made Qing Yanrou marvel at it.
Lin Nanfeng reached out and touched Bai Xinyi's forehead lovingly, and said gently, "Don't wear high heels next time. Your feet will get tired and sprain easily. I feel bad for you."
After saying that, he picked her up by the waist and walked towards the sports car parked on the side of the road.
Bai Xinyi shyly hid in Lin Nanfeng's arms, hugging his waist sweetly, and thus missed the sudden coldness of Lin Nanfeng's face.
By the time the flashy sports car left Qing Yanrou's sight, the car she called had arrived.

Chu Tingbai ordered a private restaurant. Under the guidance of the waiter, Qing Yanrou saw Chu Tingbai concentrating on the computer.
"Sorry, it will be ready soon. You can take a look at the menu first."
When Chu Tingbai saw Qing Yanrou had arrived, he started typing on the keyboard quickly and closed the notebook after a while.
"Are you done?"
"Um, sorry, there was a problem. Let's see what you like to eat. Their winter melon stewed with crab meat is pretty good."
Chu Tingbai looked at the recipe in his hand and said in a low voice.
"Then let's have winter melon stewed with crab meat, stir-fried frogs, and pan-fried yellow croaker."
Seeing that she had ordered, Chu Tingbai handed the menu to the waiter and said, "Bring two more signature dishes."
"What do you want to ask?" Qing Yanrou asked, feeling awkward just sitting there.
"I want to know when Jing Huai will come back."
"Doesn't this depend on the progress of your uncle and the others?"
Qing Yanrou looked at Chu Tingbai speechlessly, as if she didn't understand why he needed to ask her such a simple question.
......
"Cough, cough," Chu Tingbai coughed twice to cover up his cough and continued, "Do you still have the talisman paper I bought at noon? I want to buy a few more."
"No way, Chu Tingbai, this is just a talisman paper for removing dust and purifying the air. Do you really need to clean the room yourself?"
Qing Yanrou was in disbelief. How could this be completely different from the wealthy sons and daughters in movies and TV dramas?
There was a hint of a break in Chu Tingbai's usually calm and steady appearance, and his overly fair face was quietly covered with a suspicious red.
"I live alone and don't like people coming into my place."
"Okay, but I'll give it to you in two days."
Qing Yanrou was in a hurry to go out today and did not bring yellow paper and cinnabar with her. She was going back to school tonight and wanted to temporarily avoid the tiring dream.
"It doesn't matter."
Huh, Chu Tingbai sighed in his heart. He felt a headache when he thought about his aunt asking him to take care of Qing Yanrou's business.
What does Qing Yanrou do? She's a Taoist priest! She's a ghost hunter! Is asking him to take care of her business a curse for him to encounter ghosts all the time?!
It was already late when the two of them came out after dinner. Seeing that Qing Yanrou was going back to school, Chu Tingbai took the initiative to drive her back.
After watching Qing Yanrou enter the school gate, Chu Tingbai discovered that she had left her cell phone in the car. She could no longer be seen, so he found a place to park the car, picked up the phone and went to return it to her.
Today is the first day of school. There are not many students on campus. On the tree-lined avenue, the shadows of the trees are shining brightly under the light of the street lamps.
Chu Tingbai's shadow was strangely stretched, and suddenly something rushed into his shadow. The shadow was twisted for a moment, but soon merged into one.
