When Tan Rou saw Zhuang Liu, she would unconsciously smile. "Why are you so late?"
Zhuang Liu passed a box to Tan Rou. "I took this, but I was caught in a traffic jam, so I came late. Has the auction started?"
"Not yet," Tan Rou said.
Zhuang Liu showed Tan Rou the contents of his box. It was a pocket watch with blue and green gems inlaid on it. When he opened it, the needle inside could still turn.
"A very beautiful pocket watch. Is its timing accurate?" Tan Rou asked.
Zhuang Liu said, "Yes. Since it was created, it has never stopped spinning. It has been spinning for more than 100 years."
Tan Rou was also a little surprised. It wasn't that she hadn't seen a pocket watch before, but it was the first time she had seen a pocket watch that still worked after a hundred years. Hence, she took a few more glances and even compared the time to see if it was accurate.
