Her hesitating tone caused Zhao Shi Cheng's heart to miss a beat. He feared that she thought it wasn't enough and then add another five dishes, so he squeezed out a smile and said, "It's good that you're full. Let's pay the bill and leave."
After he had said this, he started to hurriedly take out the money. But when his hand touched his sleeves, his expression suddenly changed. He searched the pouch in his sleeves again. Finally, he lifted his head and smiled awkwardly towards her. "Wan er...I forgot, my purse was snatched away."
"I knew we shouldn't have let those three men go!" Tang Wan also recalled that although she beat those three people up, but she forgot getting the purse back. She regretted it so badly.
This is bad. She ate such a big pile of food, but she didn't money to pay. She looked at the leftovers on the table. Her heart felt a burst of shame. All of a sudden, a light bulb went off her head. She made a small sound and said joyfully, "I have an idea. "
Not waiting until he responded, she took off the good hairpin from her head and handed it to him carefully. "You can use this to pay the bill. Who knows, maybe you'll even get some money back!"
When Zhao Shi Cheng looked at the gold hairpin, his expression changed slightly. He was unable to move his eyes, astonished. This Phoenix shaped hairpin has excellent workmanship. It was lifelike, and the place where pinion hang from above also had been mounted with pearls. It was extremely valuable, but what he cared about wasn't the Phoenix hairpin's value rather its meaning.
In the capital, rumor has it that when Lu You and Tang Wan got engaged, it was the Lu family who specially ordered to give as a gift. Even after Lu You had divorced her, he didn't ask for it back. He supposed this was exactly that Phoenix hairpin. Therefore, it could be said that it was Lu You and Tang Wan's token of love. Unexpectedly, she simply gave this to him in a very straightforward manner, paying the debt after saying this?
"Wife, are you really going to give me this Phoenix hairpin..."
He didn't even finish his words and Tang Wan interrupted carelessly. "I already said I'll give it to you, so I gave it to you. How else will we pay the bill? Are we going to stay here and wash dishes?"
Zhao Shi Cheng never heard of this kind of wording. He didn't feel like it was strange, and he smiled instead. After all, she has too many alarming words and actions. He gradually became calm at the occurrence of unexpected or strange events, however, he was still honest and reminded her once again. "For you, this Phoenix hairpin should have a special significance."
"You don't know. It isn't the Phoenix wasn't carved well. It's just a real phoenix doesn't look like that. What's there to commemorate?" She didn't detect his meaning and only that if the Phoenix from heaven knew the humans carved it into a bird that didn't look like a bird and sparrow that didn't look like a sparrow, perhaps it will wish it could spit out the fire of Samadhi and burn the capital three days three nights.
He shook his head. "This phoenix hairpin was gifted to you by Lu You. It symbolizes your past relationship. Although in my position, I shouldn't mention this, but I'm afraid you'll regret it in the future."
"I won't regret it! Don't you know that I can't wait until I can quickly get rid of this gold hairpin?" When she talked about this, Tang Wan seemed really helpless."I don't like wearing jewelry at all. This gold hairpin is super heavy. If this wasn't my only jewelry, then Xiao Chun wouldn't make me wear it every day. Now that I use it to pay off the debt, I guess I'm freed from it."
Her reaction made Zhao Shi Cheng slightly not know whether to laugh or cry. When he saw she seemed to care less about Lu You, it filled his heart with happiness. He stopped focusing on an insignificant problem and take the Phoenix hairpin with an easy conscience.
