Chapter 1518: Chapter 1518: Scalper
Gu Yao let out a sigh of relief. Beside her, her deskmate suddenly said, "Ah Yao, did you know? Lin Wei bought 100 tickets today."Gu Yao was taken aback: "What?"
The deskmate spoke with a mysterious air: "He asked all the classmates who had tickets in the class once over and collected 100 tickets."
Gu Yao looked puzzled: "Didn’t he say yesterday that anyone who bought tickets was a fool?" She remembered clearly how terrible Lin Wei looked at the time, as if belittling a soul artifact maker would elevate his personal character and realm. It was as ugly as it could get.
Her deskmate sighed and said, "Exactly. Yesterday, he said the buyers were fools. Today, he himself became one."
What a quick face-slap.
As soon as her deskmate finished speaking, she suddenly noticed Lin Wei looking over. She quickly lowered her head and whispered, "I really want to shout out loud, that fool is him—not only foolish but extremely dumb."
Gu Yao whispered, "Keep your voice down."
Deskmate: "Shh—"
Lin Wei vaguely heard someone talking about him behind his back, but he couldn’t care less at the moment. He had to buy as many tickets as quickly as possible. As for the quantity? The more, the better. So, he ignored those people behind him. After asking all his classmates, he walked out of the classroom to the class next door.
Her deskmate pouted and said, "I bet he won’t leave the entire grade alone until he’s bothered everyone."
After saying this, her deskmate suddenly felt very remorseful. "Yesterday, I bought ten tickets, but listening to Lin Wei and their nonsense, I thought they were useless, so I returned them! Ugh! If I had known..."
Gu Yao looked sympathetic: "You... you really returned them?"
Her deskmate slammed the table in frustration: "Of course! I returned them all! If I hadn’t returned them yesterday and sold them to Lin Wei today at a hundred times the price, I would have made a fortune."
"Sigh!" Her deskmate slammed the table again in anger.
Gu Yao knew that her deskmate had a hot temper and a short-lived passion for everything, but she didn’t expect her deskmate to actually listen to Lin Wei’s group and return the items from the Green Glaze Master.
For a moment, Gu Yao was at a loss for words, and she could only let out a heavy sigh.
Her deskmate suddenly asked, "By the way, Ah Yao, did you buy any?"
Gu Yao instinctively wanted to nod, but remembering Mila’s warning, the possible pestering from Lin Wei, and knowing her deskmate was a big mouth who couldn’t keep secrets, Gu Yao shook her head and said, "I didn’t have money back then. I only bought one and used it on the spot. Later, I thought about buying more, but I need to save for college tuition and living expenses, so I didn’t buy any more."
