Quick Transmigration: Striving Every Day to Overcome Tribulation
Chapter 18 The Passerby in the Spirit Spring Space (Part 1)
Su Su squatted quietly on the ground, intently selecting from the dazzling array of jade artifacts before her. Her slender fingers gently picked up a jade piece, examined it carefully, and then slowly put it down. Without hesitation, she picked up another one, her eyes filled with focus and contemplation.
In this life, Su Su was nothing more than an insignificant passerby, appearing only once in the entire story.
The original owner was carefully selecting items at a stall full of antiques. She had her eye on a jade pendant, but the female lead, Mu Zijing, said she liked it very much and bought it for a high price.
Later, the female protagonist accidentally cut her hand with a knife, and blood dripped onto the pendant, only to discover that it was actually a space with a spiritual spring.
However, this time the situation is quite different from the original timeline.
Su Su hadn't originally come here specifically to follow the plot, but she had indeed become deeply fascinated by the fun and challenge of finding bargains.
But some different things also happened.
The female protagonist, Mu Zijing, approached Su Su and said softly, "Beautiful lady, I really like this pendant in your hand. Would you be willing to part with it and let me have it?"
Su Su was slightly taken aback, then laughed heartily, handed over the pendant, and said, "Then you can have it."
A hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes. This pendant didn't seem to have any spiritual energy, so how could it possess such a magical space?
The female lead's halo is truly amazing and astonishing.
The female lead was a stranger to her, and as for the opportunity of the Spirit Spring Space, she trusted her own judgment.
If it really exists, then it's the female lead's good fortune.
But just as the pendant was placed in Mu Zijing's palm, another hand suddenly reached out and grabbed the rope, while the pendant was being held tightly in Mu Zijing's hand.
“I really like this pendant too!” Tian Lin looked at Su Su and Mu Zijin with an arrogant expression.
Su Su shrugged slightly, seemingly unconcerned. She stared intently at Tian Lin's face, pondering to herself: the soul and body don't match—did she transmigrate from a book or arrive here by chance?
"I really like this, so give it to me!" Tian Lin's tone showed no hint of negotiation; she simply raised her chin arrogantly.
After saying that, a flash of greed and determination crossed her eyes, and she suddenly reached out and pulled hard on the pendant's cord. The force was immense, as if she wanted to snatch the pendant from Mu Zijing's hands.
Mu Zijing was startled by the sudden snatching, but quickly recovered, instinctively tightening her grip on the pendant and saying without backing down, "This is mine..."
Seeing that Mu Zijin refused to let go, Tian Lin's arrogance intensified. She gritted her teeth and pulled harder.
The pendant swayed back and forth as the two struggled, the rope seemingly on the verge of snapping at any moment.
While pulling harder, Tian Lin said fiercely, "Hmph, I'm determined to get this pendant today, so let go now!"
Mu Zijing remained unmoved, gripping the pendant tightly, and firmly replied, "This pendant was never yours to begin with, and you can't take it away."
The two were locked in a stalemate, and the air around them seemed to thicken with tension due to their fierce struggle.
Tian Lin desperately wanted the pendant; her anxious eyes darted around, hoping to find someone to help her. However, the passersby merely watched the fierce struggle with amusement, and no one was willing to lend a hand.
Su Su was closest to the two at that moment, but Tian Lin only glanced at Su Su indifferently. Instantly recalling the original plot, she immediately knew who Su Su was. She rolled her eyes disdainfully and then looked away from Su Su.
After some thought, Tian Lin finally focused her attention on the stall owner.
"I'll offer a thousand, will you sell?" Tian Lin's tone was urgent and left no room for argument. Her brows were tightly furrowed, and her eyes revealed a strong desire and an unwavering determination. She leaned forward slightly, one hand gripping the hem of her clothes tightly, as if suppressing her inner tension and unease.
But the stall owner didn't answer immediately. He just frowned slightly, then turned to Mu Zijing and asked, "Where's this young lady? Do you want her?"
"You..." Tian Lin gritted her teeth in anger, her heart filled with hatred for her boss's blatant audacity.
Her face flushed red, her eyes burned with fury, and her body trembled slightly, as if she might rush up and punch the boss at any moment. Her angry eyes seemed to spit fire as she glared fiercely at the boss.
Seeing Tian Lin's attitude, Mu Zijing also became stubborn. She tugged at her slightly faded dress, a determined look on her face, and said directly, "I'll offer 1,100."
Tian Lin's eyes widened as she glared fiercely at Mu Zijing, and she sneered, "Fifteen thousand. Boss, you should be more honest."
Her tone was full of threat and arrogance. She slightly raised her chin, her eyes filled with provocation. Her fingers gripped her purse tightly, as if demonstrating against Mu Zijing.
She was determined to get the pendant today, because she knew that if she didn't, as a transmigrator, this villainous supporting character would suffer the same fate as the original owner of the body: losing her fiancé, going bankrupt, and ultimately falling into depravity. She absolutely couldn't let that happen, so no matter what, she had to get her hands on the pendant.
Tian Lin pulled on the pendant again with all her might, a ferocious expression on her face, veins bulging on her forehead, sweat streaming down her cheeks. Her breathing became rapid and heavy, her eyes fixed only on the pendant, as if the whole world had ceased to exist.
Mu Zijing gritted her teeth, her hands still gripping the pendant tightly.
"Ten thousand." Her voice trembled slightly; this ten thousand yuan was all the savings she had.
Originally, she wanted to give up and didn't want to compete with the wealthy young lady in front of her.
After all, she was well aware of the gap between herself and the other party, and she also knew that she did not have that much financial resources to compete.
But Tian Lin's arrogant and domineering attitude made her feel resentful.
Moreover, a voice inside her kept telling her that she had to get the pendant; it was very important to her. Therefore, Mu Zijing decided to spend all the money she had to get it. She didn't know if she would regret it after getting it, but she absolutely wouldn't let go now.
Tian Lin curled her lips into a smug smile, revealing a hint of contempt.
She looked at Mu Zijing's pale lips and forced smile, her tone full of sarcasm: "Fifty thousand. I'll offer fifty thousand. Are you going to raise it again?"
Tian Lin's eyes were full of provocation, as if she had already won.
"If you're not going to add it, then let go of me. I still want to buy it!" Tian Lin said as she pulled hard on the pendant.
Mu Zijing was unwilling to give up so easily. Her eyes were red and tears welled up in them. Her hand was still tightly gripping the pendant, her knuckles turning slightly white from the force.
She opened her mouth, wanting to raise the price, but she didn't have the confidence to do so.
In the end, she could only shut her mouth helplessly and silently let go of his hand.
In that instant, her heart was filled with disappointment and helplessness.
