“I’m not sure. The shop owner down the mountain said we should be able to see something here, so I didn’t ask much,” Nini, resting her head on his arm, half-sat up, looking towards the mountain forest behind them, then to the mountain stream and grassland ahead.
They had traveled to so many places. She hoped they could see it tonight; otherwise, Jidong might feel a bit disappointed. Looking at him, Nini turned her gaze around, watching the movements in the dark forest.
“What do you want to see?”
“Want to see…” Suddenly, a flickering light in the nearby forest caught her eye.
The shop owner hadn’t lied. It was really here—
“The bottle! Where’s the glass bottle I brought?” Nini quickly stood up and hurried to where she had placed the bottle.
“Be careful!” Seeing her run, Lu Jidong quickly got up and followed, grabbing her. “It’s very dark. Don’t trip on the stones and branches.”
“Help me find the bottle!” Regardless of the stones on the ground, Nini was determined to find the glass bottle.
Glancing at her, Lu Jidong frowned and walked to where she had left her bag.
Near the spot, he kicked something with a click, looked down, and saw the bottle.
“Is this it?” He picked it up, looked at it without understanding, and held the bottle mouth towards the moonlit sky. “What’s so special about this bottle?”
“Of course! I spent five hundred dollars to buy this bottle!”
“Five hundred for this bottle?” He frowned at her. “It’s just a glass bottle…”
“I know it’s just a glass bottle, but that shopkeeper was so cunning and stingy. He knew I wanted a bottle, and there was no one nearby who could give me this kind of transparent glass bottle, so he deliberately sold it to me at a high price. I’m sure he was reincarnated from a miser!” Thinking about being overcharged earlier, Yang Nini was furious.
“It’s just a small amount of money…” Seeing her anger, Jidong couldn’t help but laugh.
“What do you mean, ‘just a small amount’!? This is a big deal! Who does he think he is, trying to cheat me! Hmph, am I Yang Nini the type to be cheated and bullied without speaking up? I’m definitely going to report him!”
