Cultivating In The Entertainment Industry - Chapter 21

Chapter 21: Chapter 21 – I’ll Give You a Discount

The smile on the dimpled man’s face finally crumbled.

Lin Rui pressed her cap and smiled before continuing to walk forward.

Of course, most of the items there were replicas.

The differences were just like grades. There were Grade A, Grade B, and Grade C. Majority were used to fool others.

Besides, there were often people who would successfully manage to sell the replicas.

After all, those who were there to shop for antiques all had the intention to pick up some unexpected treasures.

They all wanted to get rich overnight.

Lin Rui walked an entire round and saw a few authentic antiques. However, those things did not have any spiritual energy.

The environment that was full of miasma still made her uncomfortable.

Qi Bao, who was inside the space, had also lost his initial confidence.

If he had a pair of rabbit ears, his ears would definitely be drooping now.

Lin Rui comforted Qi Bao, “It’s not easy to find treasures here in the first place. Besides, we are not looking for ordinary antiques, but antiques with spiritual power, which are even rarer. Later, we will go to the auction on the seventh floor and take another look. We might get something there.”

Besides, going to the auction would mean spending a huge amount of money.

However, Lin Zikang had always doted on Lin Rui and gave her a considerable sum of allowance every month.

Besides, if Lin Rui had really set her sights on a certain antique, Lin Zikang would definitely be willing to pay for her.

After being comforted by Lin Rui, Qi Bao’s emotions were somewhat placated, and he calmed down.

While Lin Rui was communicating with Qi Bao, outsiders would not be able to hear their conversation.

Hence, it appeared to outsiders that Lin Rui was simply squatting at a certain spot and remaining silent.

After walking a round on that floor, Lin Rui once again returned to the stall belonging to the man with the dimples.

She lowered her head to look at the antiques and remained silent.

The man with the dimples had a baby face, and he looked especially young.

Although he was already 27 years old, he still looked like he was about 17 or 18 years old.

After seeing Lin Rui squatting in front of the stall and staring at it for a long time, he wondered if he was going to close a deal.

While taking out the items from his backpack, the man with the dimples made his smile seem exceptionally affectionate and pure.

“Hey boy, which item do you like? I can give you a discount.”

Lin Rui had been wearing her cap and keeping her head low. Besides, she was wearing a loose T-shirt, a pair of jeans, and flats.

Hence, from the dimple man’s angle, only the beautiful curvature of her chin could be seen.

Lin Rui finally snapped back to her senses and was just about to say something when she heard Qi Bao scream excitedly in her mind.

“Master, there are treasures! There are treasures!”

After hearing Qi Bao’s excited screaming, Lin Rui’s expression remained unchanged.

She looked up and saw the dimpled man taking a few items from his backpack.

She simply glanced over and saw Lin Rui looking at a jade ornament.

She picked up a thumb-sized jade ornament before asking, “How much are you selling this for?”

The dimpled-man was stunned after seeing Lin Rui’s face.

All of a sudden, he could not tell her gender.

Anyway… he found her attractive!

Having a penchant for good-looking people, the dimpled man immediately said, “Hey boy, on the account that we are fated, I’ll sell the jade ornament to you at a 50% discount. You just have to pay me 5,000 yuan!”

Without even looking up, Lin Rui said, “That’s expensive.”

“I’ll give you another 50% discount, you only have to pay me 2,500 yuan!” the dimpled man said. After a pause, he realized that she was not giving in.

He then looked at Lin Rui’s pretty and exquisite eyes. Gritting his teeth, he said, “1,500 yuan! Not any less!”

‘If the prices go lower, I won’t have enough to foot the rent for this month. Mm…’

Lin Rui seemed to find the jade irresistible.

She paused and said, “I still find it a bit expensive. After all, I still have to polish this jade when I go back.”
