Gu Xijiu did not have much with her, but she had a lot of money. She could afford anything that was more expensive.
Initially, she wanted to buy it herself, but Fan Qianshi insisted on earning money for her. In order to train her apprentice's ability to enter the world, she agreed and reluctantly asked the shop owner to keep the bracelet. She would come back to buy it two months later.
She had two rules for her apprentice to earn money. He could not steal or rob. He had to earn it with his own ability!
Fan Qianshi worked hard for two months in the Celestial Kingdom and finally earned enough money to buy the bracelet. He carried the money bag with him and came back with his master to buy the bracelet.
As it was one day overdue, the shopkeeper took the bracelet out to sell again. It was bought by a young woman.
When Gu Xijiu and Gu Xijiu arrived, the woman was playing with the bracelet and was about to pay for it.
There were two buyers for one bracelet, and both of them had agreed on the price. Both parties were determined to get the bracelet. The shopkeeper thought of something and decided to let them bid for it. The highest bidder would get the bracelet.
Fan Qianshi did not bring a lot of money with him, and it was slightly more than the original price. Once the bidding began, it was highly likely that he would lose.
He was angry and furious, but the woman looked at him with disdain. "Young Master, don't tell me you don't even dare to bid? If you are poor, don't compete with me for this bracelet. This bracelet is mine! "
Fan Qianshi's face turned red, and he clenched his fists tightly.
Gu Xijiu's face darkened. She did not really want the bracelet, but the woman had attacked her apprentice.
She smiled faintly and slammed a stack of notes on the counter. "Let's start the bidding!"
The stack of notes was a hundred times the value of the bracelet. The shopkeeper's eyes were filled with jealousy! He immediately looked at the woman.
The woman's pretty face was pale. She did not have so much money with her. Naturally, she could not bid anymore. Her mouth was slightly open, but she could not speak.
Fan Qianshi was proud and smiled. "Miss, you don't even dare to bid. Since you are poor, don't compete with me for this bracelet. This bracelet is mine!"
He threw the woman's words back at her.
The girl's face turned red, but there was nothing she could do.
The shopkeeper was so happy that he could barely keep his eyes open. He wrapped up the bracelet and handed it to Gu Xijiu, "Miss, this bracelet is yours."
When Gu Xijiu was about to take it, a hand reached in and pressed on the bracelet. "Wait."
That hand was as slender as bamboo and as fair as jade. Her knuckles were beautiful, and there was even a sky-blue jade ring on her thumb.
When Gu Xijiu looked up, she saw Tian Mowen's special ghost mask and his eyes behind it.
Gu Xijiu looked at his face and recognized him immediately. She quietly withdrew her hand as if it was her first time meeting him. "What do you want to say?"
The shopkeeper recognized this Lord Imperial Tutor. After all, his special mask was a living signboard!
The shopkeeper panicked a little and hurriedly knelt down to pay his respects.
This person was none other than Di Fuyi. He glanced at Gu Xijiu.
It was their first formal meeting after twenty years. She looked at him as if he was a stranger.
His eyes moved away from her face and turned to the woman. "Yanqing, what happened?"
The woman paused for a moment before confidently recounting what had just happened.
Of course, in her story, she was the first one who wanted the bracelet. As a result, the master and his apprentices came to compete for it.
She did not bring that much money with her, so she was defeated.
