Hearing this, Wang Shouzhe's heart sank abruptly.
Although Master Changchun had not revealed the pressure of the Purple Mansion Realm, nor had he deliberately suppressed him, that casual remark still sent a chill down Wang Shouzhe's back, as though some great calamity were about to descend.
"High Person, I was only joking with Senior Sister Luwei. How could I really ask for her money?" Wang Shouzhe gave an embarrassed smile, then decisively took out the ten thousand-odd Qian Gold and handed it to Master Changchun. "Please return this money to Senior Sister Luwei."
"Your things may be somewhat expensive, but they are full of ingenious ideas. Since Luwei likes them, let her have them." Master Changchun did not mind. At his level, such trifling money no longer mattered. Besides, Luwei had earned that money herself. How she spent it was her own choice.
"Then what do you mean, High Person?" Wang Shouzhe was somewhat baffled.

Wang Shouzhe's nerves instantly tightened.

Having grown up in Evergreen Valley since childhood, her understanding of many things differs from that of ordinary people."
