Beast taming, starting from zero point novel Chapter 40

Chapter 40: Chapter 37 Medical Accident

Qiao Sang felt a sense of crisis, as the joy of being the top special recruit quickly dissipated.

At that moment, Zheng Yining said, “Boss Qiao, do you want to go celebrate later? I know a new snack bar on Rong Chang Street that serves amazing food. Their signature dish, Lao Yun Leg, is made by a Cici Match.”

Qiao Sang was shocked, “They actually use Cici Match to make Lao Yun Leg? Is that even allowed?!”

Using extraordinary creatures as ingredients wasn’t unheard of in society, but it was usually done surreptitiously, not so blatantly advertised as a signature dish.

And isn’t a Cici Match made entirely of magnets? Can you even eat that?

Zheng Yining was stunned for a moment, “Cici Match is the chef at the snack bar, did you… misunderstand something?”

Qiao Sang looked up at the sky awkwardly and laughed twice, “Haha, it looks like the weather is quite nice today. Let’s head home early.”

Zheng Yining: “…”

She didn’t misunderstand the big boss’s thoughts just now, did she…?

After turning down Zheng Yining, Li Yang, and the others’ invitation to bet on Black Beak Sparrows together, Qiao Sang immediately pulled out her phone as soon as they parted ways.

In order to focus on her exams, Qiao Sang had chosen to turn off her phone when she entered Shengshui Middle School.

As soon as she turned it back on, two missed calls from her mother appeared on the screen.

Qiao Sang didn’t call back right away. Taking a deep breath, she shakily unlocked her phone and opened the Interstellar Betting Network.

“I won!!”

The very next second, the Fire-Toothed Dog heard its Beast Tamer let out an excited cry.

“Ya!”

The Fire-Toothed Dog’s tail wagged happily in response to the excitement.

Qiao Sang did the math.

She had lost 5000 Alliance Currency on her bet on Bodelei, but this time, after deducting the principal, she had won 1200 Alliance Currency, which meant her total loss was still 38…

Better not to calculate it at all.

Qiao Sang deluded herself, trying not to think about it anymore as she dialed her mother back. Her mother didn’t ask about the exam but only inquired when she’d return.

Since her mother didn’t ask, Qiao Sang also didn’t mention it—after all, the middle school examination results weren’t confirmed yet, and it was best to avoid getting excited too early only to be disappointed later.

…

That night, at her desk in the room.

Qiao Sang was checking the answers of the practice tests she had just completed, which were from last year’s Hanwen City middle school exams.

Hanwen City and Hangkang City were both part of Zhehai Province, and aside from some differences in focus, the exam papers were largely similar.

After checking the answers, Qiao Sang sighed.

Though she had improved significantly, there were still many mistakes. With only one week left until the middle school exams, she figured she should return to school tomorrow, as discussing the correct thought processes for the wrong questions would be faster with others.

“Ya Ya.”

“Jiu, Jiu Jiu.”

Noises of the Fire-Toothed Dog and the Fat Home Pigeon playfully bickering came from the living room.

Hearing the sounds from the living room, Qiao Sang smiled; those two little ones were enjoying their playtime.

Half an hour later, having corrected all the questions, Qiao Sang opened up the shopping website.

She remembered the vice principal had asked for three Vitality Grass plants, two pounds of Shu Re Powder, seven ounces of Fire Nitrate, and six ounces of Red Honey.

[Vitality Grass]

Qiao Sang typed these two words.

Soon, the purchase page for Vitality Grass popped up.

Qiao Sang was taken aback.

3888.

Not giving up, she scrolled a few pages down, but the price was the same everywhere.

There’s no variability in price for this thing?!

Qiao Sang clicked on the option to sort by price from low to high.

At the top of the page, it boldly displayed the price of 38 Alliance Currency.

With such a huge price difference, could she dare to buy it?!

After hesitating a moment and grappling with the hope that she might get lucky, Qiao Sang still clicked through.

Looking at the reviews, all were bad.

[Did the merchant’s conscience get eaten by a dog? Is this really Vitality Grass?]

[I fed it to my Cotton Shame Rabbit, and it had diarrhea for a week, so thin now (picture)]

[What kind of Vitality Grass is this, just some weeds from who knows where!]

When Qiao Sang, backpack in tow, appeared in class 37, the room erupted. _{freёweɓnovel.com}
