After Jiang Ning’s mission level upgraded last time, the System Mall had opened.
However, because Jiang Ning didn’t rely much on the System and the items she got from the System’s lucky draw were enough for her needs, she never exchanged anything in the System Mall.
Of course, she also purposefully saved her Merit Points for when she might need them in the future.
Now, wasn’t this the opportunity to exchange something!
As Jiang Ning’s voice rang out in her mind, the System bounced out in the next second, "Yes, yes, yes!"
The System quickly scanned Xiang Dazhong and exclaimed:
"Host, this Xiang Dazhong is utterly rotten!"
"He has able hands and feet but doesn’t work honestly. Instead, he often engages in thievery and deception."
"He’s even deceiving patients now! And it’s not even his first time cheating patients!"
"Some time ago, he was caught by a patient’s family and taken to the police station, but he was released after just a few days."
"Also, last month, while trying to sell to an elderly person with no family, he was discovered by a college student who called the police, and in the end, he just received a verbal warning."
"I think there’s a Rotten Mouth Pill in the Mall that would suit him perfectly."
"Since he’s so eloquent, let him grow a sore in his mouth and throat every time he tells a lie from now on! Painful death to him!"
"And it’s very cheap too, only requiring 10 Merit Points!"
"Sure!" Jiang Ning immediately agreed.
Delighted, the System quickly exchanged for a Rotten Mouth Pill and designated it for use on Xiang Dazhong.
Xiang Dazhong, seeing that Jiang Ning didn’t respond, thought she had no way to deal with him.
He snorted with satisfaction, snatched the five vitamin pills from Jiang Ning’s hand, and turned to leave.
However, he hadn’t walked far when suddenly several wild bees flew out from nowhere, buzzed around Xiang Dazhong, then landed a zero-distance deep kiss on his mouth with their behinds raised.
Xiang Dazhong covered his mouth and screamed in pain, then rushed into the hospital entrance while shouting.
This incident happened in the blink of an eye.
Without provocation, wild bees do not sting people at random, and their stingers are more important to them than their lives.
Jiang Ning’s gaze shifted slightly, landing on Qi Xingzhou in front of her.
Qi Xingzhou had stood in front of Jiang Ning confronting Xiang Dazhong with his back to her.
Now, he turned around, meeting Jiang Ning’s gaze unabashedly with his handsome and delicate eyebrows and eyes beneath the brim of his hat, his clear eyes carrying a hint of shyness and innocence, as if he had nothing to do with what just happened.
The elderly man beside them finally came to his senses. He bowed his head and thanked Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou, "Young lady, thank you so much! It’s good that you were here, or all my money would have been scammed away."
He only had a little over five hundred yuan, the entirety of what he and his spouse had.
Fumbling with his hands, he took out two ten-yuan notes from a pile of crumpled coins, intending to treat Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou to soda.
Jiang Ning of course refused, saying, "It’s nothing, nothing. Uncle, you must never believe what these street scammers say in the future; you have to go to a hospital or drugstore to get medicine."
With trembling hands, the old man clutched his wrinkled plastic bag, nodding repeatedly, but the hand holding the twenty-yuan note did not retract, stubbornly raised, insisting that Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou go buy sodas.
If it hadn’t been for Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou’s intervention, his money would have been swindled away.
