"How could I possibly accept this?" Zhao Yuan said politely, but his hands had already reached out to take the gift bag. He didn't even look inside before stowing it away in his Storage Ring Space.
Seeing him accept it without a moment's hesitation, Hao Li couldn't help but roast him. "Didn't you just say you couldn't possibly accept? You didn't even put up a token protest before taking it!"
Zhao Yuan declared righteously, "It was a kind gesture from Fellow Daoist Cheng. No matter how embarrassed I felt, I couldn't just disrespect him like that."
Hao Li gave him a thumbs-up. "You're so right," he said, full of admiration. "I'm actually speechless..."
Zhao Yuan chuckled slyly. "But of course. I'm always a reasonable guy."
At this, not only Hao Li but also Cheng Haoyu and Ying Ji had heard enough. In unison, they all flipped Zhao Yuan the bird.
After that little interlude, the four of them and the Bone Woman all piled into Ying Ji's Audi A6.
