Chapter 126: The Problematic Store
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Luo Ziyun pulled herself together and greeted Lu Zijia and the others passionately. She then said a bit apologetically in an instant.
“Oh right, I’m so sorry. I was busy with something just then, so I didn’t greet you in person. Please don’t mind.
“It’s rare to have guests at our home. Please feel free to make yourself at home,” Luo Ziyun said as she was about to invite Lu Zijia and the others to the small building behind the store, where they lived.
However, she suddenly remembered that she was the only one in the store right now, so she couldn’t go away at all and she immediately felt a bit awkward.
Lu Zijia smiled and said indifferently when she saw how awkward Luo Ziyun was, “Thank you. I’ll make myself comfortable then.
.
“I happen to be a bit interested in emeralds. Can I look around your store?”
Most stone gambling stores didn’t have cut emeralds for sale.
And yet, for some reason, there were already a lot of cut emeralds of different sizes on a small shelf in “Tang Family Treasure” and most of them had spiritual energy inside.
However, the only shortcoming was that the emeralds on the small shelf, no, the rough stones and the emeralds in the entire “Tang Family Treasure,” all carried strong grievances.
She had no idea whether these rough stones and emeralds with strong grievances got the grievances before they came to “Tang Family Treasure” or if they got the grievances here in “Tang Family Treasure.”
However, for Lu Zijia, the grievances could be dealt with by casting a few spells.
So, even if the emerald she wanted had grievances in it, it was a small matter that could be solved easily.
“Of course.”
Lu Zijia’s timely rescue made Luo Ziyun relieved in her mind secretly and she didn’t look so embarrassed anymore.
“The rough stones of our store are all here. Feel free to take a look. Don’t feel embarrassed.”
Luo Ziyun focused on showing the rough stones put on the floor and the shelves but neglected the emeralds on the small shelf.
Lu Zijia didn’t know if she neglected them deliberately or just accidentally.
“I want to see too!”
The moment Lu Zijia stepped forward, the little boy, Mu Ruishu, grabbed her sleeve, showing that he wanted to tag along.
“Xiao Rui, aren’t you here to play with me?”
Tang Yuan, who was ignored by her friend, looked a bit wronged on her cute little face.
Mu Ruishu, “…”
He knew that Yuanyuan’s family sold rough stones. Yuanyuan said there had been a lot of emeralds and jade pendants lately, so he made an excuse to come here today.
Grandpa He said he could buy a gift for the bad woman and she would like him too.
He saw the bad woman hold a jade pendant happily yesterday, so she must like jade pendants very much.
Unexpectedly, he caught the bad woman coming for stone gambling by coincidence. Hm!
“I can also play with my auntie,” Mu Ruishu said seriously in a baby’s voice with a solemn face.
The bad woman wanted to go stone gambling. He must keep an eye on this bad woman, or she would definitely go stone gambling secretly!
Tang Yuan tilted her little head and pondered. After a while, she nodded, “Alright, we’ll play with your auntie.”
Lu Zijia, “….”
Was this little boy going to watch her firmly? Could she not be trusted?
Alright, she indeed couldn’t be trusted…
So, when Lu Zijia took a step forward, the two kids behind her also walked a step. That was indeed very weird!
The corners of Lu Zijia’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch. She acted like she was looking at the rough stones in frustration.
When Luo Ziyun, who was watching Lu Zijia anxiously, saw that Lu Zijia was only looking at the rough stones but not the emeralds on the small shelf, she couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief secretly.
Even though Lu Zijia was pretending to be looking at the rough stones, she didn’t miss Luo Ziyun’s reaction.
Luo Ziyun’s reaction obviously told people that the emeralds on that small shelf had some problems.
However, if she had already known that they were problematic, why did she put them here for sale?
Besides, there hadn’t been a single customer in the store up till now, except for them.
Lu Zijia also noticed that when she came into the store with the little boy before, many people outside looked at them and even started whispering softly while gazing at them.
