Although they were friends, An Jing also had her own principles regarding money: "Let's stick to the rules."
Seeing An Jing's insistence, Wang Youbao didn't say much and felt it inappropriate to stuff the money into An Jing's hands. After all, An Jing was a woman, and he was a man; there should be a distinction between the sexes. If their skin touched because of the act of passing money, it would be inappropriate. Therefore, he shoved the money fiercely into Xiao Changyi's hands, then turned his plump body around and ran towards the courtyard gate.
He was panting with every step due to his weight, but he didn't stop for a rest, nor did he look back, as if afraid that An Jing and Xiao Changyi would catch up and give him back those five taels of silver.
"Pfft..." An Jing couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Xiao Changyi rarely cracked a smile as well.
