Chapter 25: Punished By Lightning Strikes
Han Xuhan had won about 150 spirit stones from his bets. Xuanyuan Zhou’s winnings stood somewhere around 300 spirit stones.
With these winnings pooled together, they would be able to pay for only a month’s expenses.
Xuanyuan Zhou couldn’t believe it.
"Why is it so high? Mine is only around 120, and I selected the best one available!"
"Attendants have to pay for the privileges ordinary disciples get for free, my lady."
Han Xuhan chose not to explain that he could cut down that cost by a great margin if he selected a low-tier package that would have him do a shitton of menial jobs everyday.
The justification behind hiding this information was... Well, there was none. He was just not a very honest person. Since Xuanyuan Zhou wanted to treat him like a real attendant, what’s wrong with letting her pay the price?
Face somber, Xuanyuan Zhou searched her purse for a while and pulled out a coin that looked slightly different from the ones in Han Xuhan’s pouch. The center of the coin consisted of a flattened, polished red crystal.
"This should do. Go deposit it over there along with our forms. You’ll get 150 spirit stones back."
