After Jiang Ning returned home, Xue Yuantong rested her elbows on the dining table, propped her chin on her small hands, and blinked at him.
"Jiang Ning, you're back!"
Xue Yuantong exclaimed happily. She had been waiting for quite a while.
She had thought Jiang Ning might not come back.
Xue Yuantong had originally planned to wait only five minutes. If Jiang Ning did not return, she would eat first, and all the delicious food today would be hers! Yet she had waited through three five-minute intervals, and Jiang Ning still had not returned.
She had not touched her chopsticks the entire time.
Then Xue Yuantong realized she was a little too excited and immediately calmed down.
Why should I be happy that he's back? She looked at Jiang Ning with disdain.
"You were out for so long. What were you doing? I'm starving."
"I had something to do. All right, let's eat," Jiang Ning said.
Xue Yuantong pointed at the spoon and bowl on the table. "You came back too late, so your punishment is to serve me my rice."
"Sure." Jiang Ning had no objections.
"Hmph! For today's Pineapple Sweet and Sour Pork, you're only allowed one piece."
"Sure."
"Are you a broken record?" Xue Yuantong tested him again. "You're washing the dishes today."
"No," Jiang Ning said.
Before afternoon classes, Jiang Ning received a phone call that greatly lifted his spirits.
The medicinal herb merchant claimed that the Soul Submergence Incense had arrived. There were around three jin in total, and he asked Jiang Ning how much he wanted.
Soul Submergence Incense cost three thousand yuan per liang. Three jin amounted to thirty liang, for a total price of ninety thousand yuan.
Jiang Ning had made over a hundred thousand yuan selling two Gold Bars last
