The sun is shining brightly in the sky.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for lunch.
Ye Ziyun and Xiao Ning'er were both children of privilege, and after school, they all went home.
"Ziyun, don't forget the two thousand yuan you owe me." Chang Ping quickly walked to Ye Ziyun and reminded her quietly in her ear.
He did this because he was afraid that others would lose face if they knew that Ye Ziyun owed money.
Ye Ziyun's face turned slightly red and she said "hmm" softly.
No boy had ever been so close to her before. Although she knew Chang Ping did not mean it, she was still very shy.
Such intimate behavior naturally caused dissatisfaction among some people.
"Damn it! Don't stop me, I'm going to go up and kill him!" Shen Yue was furious.
Lu Piao and Du Ze put their hands behind their backs and made way for him.
Shen Yue was suddenly embarrassed.
"Humph, I ate something bad this morning and my stomach feels uncomfortable. I'll spare his life for now and settle the matter with him another day."
Lu Piao looked at Shen Yue with disdain, thinking: What a coward! If it were him, he would definitely go up and fight to the death.
"Hi~ You are Chang Ping, right? Hello, my name is Xiao Xue." A girl in red ran over and greeted Chang Ping enthusiastically.
"Xue'er?" Lu Piao felt like he was hit on the head with a club.
This lively and cheerful girl is his childhood sweetheart and also the object of his secret love.
What does she want to see Chang Ping for?
"Hello, Xiao Xue, you are so beautiful." Chang Ping smiled and stretched out his palm as big as a palm leaf fan, and asked, "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"
Xiao Xue also stretched out her hand and shook hands with Chang Ping.
His palm was broad and warm, which made her heart flutter.
Xiao Xue blushed, retracted her hands, put them behind her back, shook her head and said, "Nothing special, I heard you're very famous in the academy, so I came to meet you. Are you free at noon? I'll treat you to a meal."
Her cousin was the former instructor of the beginner's class who was beaten into a disability by Tie Lang. Chang Ping beat Tie Lang until he knelt down and begged for mercy, thus venting her cousin's anger. Her cousin wanted her to thank him on his behalf and treat him to a meal or something.
"Sorry, I have an appointment at noon. Let's do it another day." Chang Ping smiled and scratched his head.
The main reason he refused was that he was afraid of making the girl cry.
"Okay, some other day." Xiao Xue nodded shyly.
Watching the little girl run away happily, Chang Ping blinked his eyes and thought: Did she misunderstand something? He said he would treat her to a meal another day, it wasn't something strange.
"Fuck your sister! Don't stop me, I want to kill him!" Lu Piao was angry and raised his fist towards Chang Ping.
If Nie Li and Du Ze hadn't held him tightly, he would definitely rush over.
Then he was knocked down by Chang Ping.
Shen Yue looked at the crazy Lu Piao with a gloating look: This kid should now be able to understand how painful he was just now, right?
"Does it make sense?" Nie Li grabbed Lu Piao's shoulders and yelled, "If you rush over now, you will only bring shame upon yourself! As the old saying goes, if you keep the green mountains, you will never worry about lack of firewood. Brother, just bear with it for a few more days. Believe me, I will definitely help you get your beloved back."
Lu Piao suddenly looked shy and said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? Xiao Xue is not my beloved. She is my neighbor. I just don't want her to be deceived by bad people. Please don't misunderstand me!"
Nie Li smiled knowingly: Lu Piao is still the same, a coward who likes someone but doesn't dare to say it out loud.
"Tomorrow! As soon as tomorrow comes, the price of Purple Haze Grass will definitely skyrocket." Nie Li was very confident. He still had 30,000 Monster Spirit Coins given by Shen Fei. While the price hadn't risen yet, he was going to have lunch and make another purchase.
On the quiet bamboo forest path, Chang Ping and Xiao Ning'er walked side by side, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
Ye Ziyun was eager to present her treasure and had already left.
"How is the purchase of purple haze grass going?" Chang Ping spoke first. She should have sent servants to major pharmacies in the city to purchase it, right?
If his inference was correct, Nie Li's letter should have been delivered to the Alchemist Association by now, and the price of Purple Haze Grass would probably rise sharply this afternoon or tomorrow.
"Here!" Xiao Ning'er handed Chang Ping a space ring with a smile.
Chang Ping spread out his big, broad hands.
Xiao Ning'er placed the ring on his palm like a dragonfly touching the water, pouted her delicate lips, and said, "The servant brought it over at the end of the third period. All the purple haze grass in the city is here. I estimate there are more than 500,000 kilograms."
Whenever she saw Chang Ping and Ye Ziyun whispering to each other, she would feel heartbroken.
Maybe she fell in love with him.
"Well done!" Chang Ping probed his soul power into the ring space to detect it, and it was just as Xiao Ning'er said, "Come, stand still, I'll take a picture of you, the scenery around here is nice." The bamboo forest is quiet and elegant.
Xiao Ning'er was the only female student in the class who did not take a photo.
Chang Ping took out his point-and-shoot camera and said to him, "Don't be afraid. I won't charge you for the first photo. It's free. Stand still and strike the pose that you think looks best."
It was Xiao Ning'er's first time taking a photo, and she was a little nervous.
She walked to a bamboo as thick as a bowl, put her hands behind her back, and leaned against it shyly.
The forest breeze is clear, and the beautiful hair and skirt are dancing gracefully.
"Crack!"
Chang Ping seized the opportunity, pressed the shutter, and captured the most beautiful picture.
"Come!" Chang Ping hooked his finger at Xiao Ning'er. He tore off the printed photo, took out a heart-shaped photo frame from his right ring, put the photo in it, and handed it to Xiao Ning'er.
She turned the photo frame over, looked at the lifelike self in the painting, and opened her cherry lips in surprise.
So realistic!
"Thank you, Chang Ping!" Holding the heart-shaped photo frame, Xiao Ning'er felt warm in her heart.
Chang Ping specially gave her a heart-shaped picture frame. Was he hinting that he liked her?
In fact, Chang Ping just took it casually, and Xiao Ning'er was overthinking it.
"No need to thank me, you did a good job, this is what you deserve." Chang Ping waved his hand, "Go home, drive slowly on the road, and have a safe trip." After saying a few auspicious words, Chang Ping turned around and left the bamboo forest.
Chang Ping always felt that there was something wrong with the way the chef on the second floor looked at him, hiding a hint of murderous intent.
Logically speaking, since he takes care of their business so well, they should be grateful. Why would they want to kill him?
Chang Ping didn't like the look in their eyes and decided not to go to the cafeteria to eat anymore.
After walking out of the college gate, Chang Ping came to a steamed bun shop.
The steamed buns stuffed with pork and green onions have just come out of the steamer, steaming hot and full of fragrance.
"Sir, how much do you want?" the vendor asked with a smile.
Chang Ping swallowed his saliva, coughed lightly, and said, "First, give me a tray and try it to see if it tastes good."
"A tray?" The vendor was a little confused. "Sir, these are big meat dumplings, not steamed dumplings. Can you eat a whole tray?"
"Stop talking nonsense and come up. I'm not short of money!" Chang Ping found a bench to sit down, took out a demon crystal card, and slapped it on the table.
Ten thousand demon spirit coins?
The peddler was shocked: It seems this gentleman is really rich.
