Chapter 399: Chapter 399: Where is the security? Chapter 399: Chapter 399: Where is the security? The jade token given to Brother Yan was square and proper, while the one chosen for Jiang Jingze was the safety pendant that caught her eye initially.
Both pieces of jade were of fine quality.
Although neither was particularly heavy, their translucency and beauty ant they were certainly not cheap.
Yue Qingqing felt a pinch, knowing the money would eventually have to co out of her own savings, and she couldn’t let her mother find out.
But one was for Brother Yan, and the other was for her longti al ticket, so Yue Qingqing gritted her teeth and bought them anyway.
The shop assistant smiled so broadly that her eyes nearly disappeared; she hadn’t expected to make such a large sale from Boss Yue’s daughter.
Yue Qingqing had felt the financial bleed since yesterday, so she had brought all her New Year’s money collected over the years today.
She pulled out the beautiful wallet sewn by her aunt and counted the bills one by one.
Luckily, the fourth edition of currency had introduced hundred-dollar bills, otherwise, she didn’t know how long it would have taken to count all that money.
“A total of one thousand eight hundred and fifty-two.”
As the owner’s daughter, the shop assistant decided to give Yue Qingqing a break after a phone call to her boss.
She sold it to her at a slightly above cost price.
Otherwise, the regular selling price would start at several thousand.
Even so, Yue Qingqing couldn’t close her mouth when she heard the price.
Still, she knew the price was much cheaper than outside, so she begrudgingly handed over the money.
The shop assistant counted it once, and her smile never faded.
“Thank you, Miss Yue, let package up the two pieces of jade for you.”
Yue Qingqing quickly stopped her, “No, just string them on two red cords for .”
Since she had decided to give the jade away, it wasn’t appropriate to let others’ energy touch them.
Yue Qingqing also planned to keep them out to absorb more spiritual energy with a Curse Technique.
It’s much more inconvenient to keep them in a box.
The shop assistant hesitated, “If they aren’t packed, it would be bad if they got damaged.”
Yue Qingqing was confident, “It won’t happen, just give the cords.”
The shop assistant, though still concerned, ultimately knew that the custor always cos first.
Even if this custor was quite young.
He watched as Yue Qingqing casually strung the jade onto the red cords and stuffed them into her upper garnt’s pocket, feeling a pang as if pearls were being dumped into dust.
“Miss Yue, it’s really easy to lose them like this.”
Yue Qingqing waved her hand dismissively, “No worries, it won’t happen.”
Any thief capable of stealing from her would have to be at least a cultivator.
But why would an ordinary cultivator be interested in these two pieces of jade that hadn’t been infused with spiritual energy yet?
Yue Qingqing confidently left with the items, not forgetting to hug a basket filled with snacks tightly in her arms as she left.
The jade had to be paid for by herself.
These items could be taken to the first floor, where her mother would help pay for them.
The shop assistant watched Yue Qingqing’s departing figure, and four words surfaced in his mind.
Rich and willful!
Yet, this young girl seed to cherish the snacks as though they were even more valuable than the jade.
Yue Qingqing happily hugged the basket and was about to head downstairs when she suddenly felt a hostile gaze.
She looked curiously in the direction it ca from and saw Zhuang Rouhui’s furious face.
Their eyes t.
The smile on Yue Qingqing’s face faded, feeling her mood drop.
Although she didn’t care much about blood ties, being stared at by her biological mother with such animosity still made her uncomfortable.
Zhuang Rouhui’s eyes reddened the mont she saw Yue Qingqing.
That damned girl again!
Indeed, every encounter with her had never been good.
Zhuang Rouhui felt a rush of blood to her head, prompting her to unconsciously walk briskly towards Yue Qingqing.
Yue Qingqing watched her warily, “What do you want?”
Zhuang Rouhui, not even sure of her own intentions, simply moved forward on instinct.
But when she looked down at Yue Qingqing and noticed the two pieces of jade in the girl’s pocket, her expression changed imdiately.
“Where is security, the mall’s security?”
“Thief, this girl has stolen items from the mall!”
