She was lucky. This time the boss could speak Mandarin. He smiled as he replied to her, “Miss, you have good judgment. I like the stud earrings as well. I actually intended to keep them for myself, but since you like them, I’ll sell the pair to you. A pair of stud earrings costs 80 yuan.”

80 yuan! Chi Enen bit her lip. It was about the same price as what she had expected. But she put down the stud earrings and bargained with the boss. “Boss, 80 yuan is too expensive, can it be cheaper? If it is cheaper, I’ll buy it.”

Li Beijue frowned, he was about to pay for her automatically. Chi Enen knew that he would spoil her plans. She quietly reached out her hands to grab hold of him, shaking her head at him quietly.

What was the woman doing?

Chi Enen stopped him and made use of the opportunity to bargain with the boss. “Boss, give me a lower price. I didn’t bring much money on my first trip abroad. I also want to buy some other things. If you sell it at 80 yuan, I won’t be able to buy anything else.”

The boss seemed to be in a difficult position. “But Miss, I have given you a very low price.”

“If that’s the case then never mind.” Chi Enen pulled Li Beijue to walk away, a reluctant look on her face.

She had just taken a few steps when she felt that she was being held back.

She froze and looked up. The man with the cold expression tugged at her hands. He seemed to want to go back to the stall.

“Li Beijue, what are you doing?”

“Don’t you like those stud earrings? Why do you walk away? I’ll buy them for you.” She was his woman. He would not allow her to give up a pair of 80 yuan stud earrings that she liked.

Chi Enen stopped him, looking exasperated. “I am not leaving. I am just…”

“What?” Li Beijue had a stiff expression on his face, directing his aristocratic phoenix eyes on her.

Chi Enen had no idea how she should explain the art of bargaining to him.

Fortunately, at this time, the boss stopped them.

“Miss, wait. I’ll give it to you at 60 yuan! 60 yuan is the lowest. If you like them, you can have them. If you still feel that it’s expensive, then forget it.”

Chi Enen was relieved. She pulled Li Beijue back to the booth, a smile on her face as she explained to him on the way back. “You don’t understand. One can usually bargain at this kind of roadside stalls. The boss knows about this as well, therefore they quote a higher price. If they run into people who do not know how to bargain and pay according to the price that the boss quotes, they will earn more. If they run into people who know how to bargain, they have a range where they can cut the price. Therefore, when one shops at places like this, never pay according to the price that the seller first quotes you. One must bargain with them. If they refuse to give in, pretend to walk away. The boss will usually reduce the price in order to sell their goods.”

Li Beijue’s heart ached as he listened to her while she shared her bargaining techniques.

What kind of life had she lived in the past few years and why did she know so much? He preferred her to know nothing than to know everything.

Chi Enen did not know what was on his mind. She paid 60 yuan to the boss, feeling satisfied with the stud earrings that she just bought.

Anxin loved simple accessories. This pair of pearl stud earrings was just nice. She would definitely love it.

After completing her biggest task today, Chi Enen felt much more relaxed. She pulled the man next to her to continue with her shopping, feeling more at ease.

There was something very good about the night market and there was everything that one needed.

There was food, drinks and fun. As long as one could think of it, there was nothing that the night market did not have.

Chi Enen had lots of fun shopping, eating and drinking. She also bought a lot of interesting stuff.

“What is that?”

Just when she was about to call it a day, she saw a group of people who were gathered in front of her. They seemed as if they were snatching up something good. Her eyes lit up, as she pulled Li Beijue to run toward that direction. “Li Beijue, let’s go and take a look.”
