Chapter 2683 - Purchase
Chapter 2683: Purchase
After they had talked for a while, Guo Xinning led them outside. He left a message with the steward to inform his father before departing.
Under the dim night, lanterns were hung high in front of the doors on the street. It’s a beautiful sight.Some young men and women strolled together through the busy streets, and some children frolicked and shuttled around. On both sides of the street, peddlers shouted nonstop. The scene was vibrant and bustling.
“Big Brother, it’s really lively here, even more than ours.” Xie Shisi happily took her brother’s hand and smiled as she looked around. She suddenly noticed some small trinkets in front of her and dashed to the front.
“What is this?” She examined the eggs of varying shades displayed on a stall and took some to inspect with interest.
“Haha, Miss, this is a pet beast’s egg. Would you like to pick one?”
The middle-aged man at the stall looked over at the girl in front of him. He could tell she could afford pet eggs because she was well-dressed. His smile widened slightly as he enthusiastically explained to her.
“This pet beast will eventually break out of its shell if it is fed spirit energy on a daily basis. These pets are small and adorable, and women love them.”
“This is a pet beast’s egg? What kinds of pet beasts are there? What do they look like? The shells of these eggs are colourful, with different patterns. Will the little pet beasts look the same?”
“These are low-level pet animals with no fighting ability, but they are adorable and can listen to and chat with their owners. I’m not sure what kind of small beasts will be inside, hehe, but I’m sure whatever kind of beasts they are, they’ll be very cute and adorable.”
The stall owner made every effort to promote his wares. “What’s more, this pet beast’s egg is very affordable. Buy one to keep at home. It’s fun to watch it be born.”
Xie Shisi was so moved by what he said that she had to ask, “How much is it?”
“Hehe, we don’t accept money, only rock crystals. Fifty rock crystals for a pet beast.” The stall owner replied with a chuckle.
When she heard his answer, Xie Shisi couldn’t help turning around. When she saw her brother and Feng Jiu approaching, she quickly stepped forward. “Big Brother, I want a pet beast’s egg, but I don’t have any rock crystals.”
“I don’t have any rock crystals either!” said Xie Yutang, scratching his head. “Do you have some?” he asked, looking at Feng Jiu. “When we return, I’ll ask my parents to give you.”
“I have some. Let me pay for it.” Guo Xinning said with a smile. When he came over, he was about to take out the crystal rocks, but Xie Yutang stopped him.
“No, no, that won’t work!” Xie Yutang drew Feng Jiu to one side and whispered, “My sister is smitten by him. If she also takes the pet beast’s egg he purchased, it will be terrible. Help me pay for Little Shi first! I’ll give you double.”
Feng Jiu could not contain her laughter and asked, “Just a pet beast’s egg?” She grinned, removed a cosmos sack from her space and handed it to him. “Take it! It has enough rock crystals for you to spend.”
“Hey, many thanks. I knew you were loyal enough.”
Xie Yutang grinned and hurriedly paid fifty rock crystals. He urged Xie Shisi to choose one while telling the dumbfounded Guo Xinning, “Big Brother Guo, we’re already thankful to have you accompany us to play. How can we justify spending your money?”
