Jia Duobao's smile froze on his face.
He just left?
Had Elder Shi forgotten something!?
"Could this be the legendary trick of getting something for nothing!?" Huang Xuan exclaimed.
"Sure enough, ginger gets spicier with age. Junior Brother tried playing on Elder Shi's feelings, but Elder Shi played him with a few tricks instead." Ye Bufan laughed.
Jia Duobao had thought he'd worked the mood up enough, and that Elder Shi would take the opportunity to give him another copy of the genuine Spring and Autumn Annals.
But Elder Shi hadn't thought that at all. He'd taken the free copy of the Spring and Autumn Annals and run.
