Chapter 815: Not Even Enough Time to Cry

Old Liu shook his head with a smile, "Young people, huh."

Then Gu Lingling took the money Yang Yunhai handed over and said to the old man, "Take this money first as emergency aid. As for the item, just leave your address, and we’ll come by to pick it up another day."

"This money is already enough," the old man said excitedly, "it’s enough, uh, it’s enough."

It’s enough for his wife to get medical treatment.

However, Gu Lingling just smiled and shook her head without saying anything.

The money she gave was less than one hundred yuan, which was far from enough compared to the thumb ring.

"This young lady seems pretty wealthy," Old Liu said with a smile, "giving away money like this without caring. Aren’t you afraid he’ll take your money and run?"

"Didn’t you say this thing is fake?" Gu Lingling retorted.

Since it’s fake, all he needs to do is wait at home for them to come and pick it up, why run?

Old Liu was stumped, then gave a thumbs-up, "The young lady is indeed no less than the men."

"In that case, would the young lady be interested in taking a look around my shop?" Old Liu grinned like a Buddha statue, "I happen to have a batch of stones to open today, would the young lady be interested in it?"

Gambling stones?

Gu Lingling shook her head; she’s never been interested in gambling.

Besides, when Mr. Zhou taught her, he mentioned gambling stones—some people get rich overnight, but most lose everything.

So he emphasized to her that if she ever visits Antique Street, she should stay away from gambling stones.

Old Liu didn’t expect Gu Lingling to refuse.

This young lady spent so much money on a broken thumb ring, and she looks unfamiliar; she must be visiting the Antique Street for the first time, "Haha, maybe I didn’t make myself clear. Young lady, do you know about gambling stones? Let me explain..."

"I know," Gu Lingling interrupted him, "but I’m not interested."

Old Liu was stumped again.

People in the crowd watching couldn’t help but laugh.

On this street, it was the first time someone didn’t give Old Liu face, and the first time seeing Old Liu so frustrated, it was truly satisfying.

"Haha, the young lady is straightforward; I like her personality," Old Liu laughed heartily after being rebuffed, "I also have some antiques in my shop; would the young lady be interested in taking a look? The price for what you fancy is negotiable."

"Are you so sure there’s something I’ll fancy?" Gu Lingling retorted, "Then let’s go have a look."

This person has been trying to catch her attention since showing up and is now going all out to get her into his shop; she’s curious to see what’s really going on.

The people watching naturally followed along; there’s no business now anyway, so going in to enjoy the commotion is as good.

"How much is this?" At the door, Gu Lingling suddenly stopped, pointing to a nondescript little gourd under the eaves of Old Liu’s store used for catching rainwater and asked.

"This?" Old Liu laughed heartily, "If the young lady likes it, take it, it’s yours."

"Thank you then, please wrap it up for me now so I don’t forget about it later," Gu Lingling blinked mischievously, causing Old Liu to laugh again, "I just love these unremarkable things."

Like that thumb ring that looked like a fake earlier, or this unobtrusive celadon jar now.

Used for catching rainwater?

Tsk tsk... It truly is beneath its worth.

"Is that thing real?" Meng Feifei asked from the building opposite.

"How could it be?" a guy nearby sneered, "Old Liu is an expert here, if it was real, would he use it for catching rainwater?"

He would have treated it like a treasure, placing it in his shop for show.

"Just wait and see, she’ll definitely cry after losing later."
