Chapter 7 - Triggering Talent, Twentyfold Critical Hit

Ningguang was stunned when she discovered a bag of Mora.

Why was there so much Mora in the lunchbox?

Following that, little Ningguang found a letter under the moneybag.

She opened it and saw a message from Fang Xun.

The gist of it was that Fang Xun was lending her fifty thousand Mora to alleviate the pressure on her family.

Although it was a loan, Fang Xun didn't specify a repayment date.

He told Ningguang not to worry about repaying the money, but to use it to take care of her health first.

When Ningguang earned money in the future, she could repay the loan.

When Ningguang finished reading the letter, she felt a pang in her chest.

Tears, once again, betrayed her and flowed freely.

Because no one had ever cared for her with such meticulous thoughtfulness as Fang Xun.

Fang Xun was helping her by lending her money, while simultaneously preserving her dignity.

In truth, Ningguang wanted to tell Fang Xun that he didn't need to be so kind to her.

Because she was just a girl from a humble background, as ordinary as could be.

She wasn't worthy of Fang Xun's kindness...

She feared she wouldn't be able to repay Fang Xun's kindness...

Ningguang silently made a decision. Since Fang Xun was letting her be his guide tomorrow, she definitely couldn't disappoint him.

At the same time, she would work even harder to earn money, striving to pay Fang Xun back the 50,000 Mora as soon as possible.

At this moment,

Ningguang's mother noticed her secretly wiping away tears.

Concerned about her daughter's emotions, she immediately stepped forward and asked, "Girl, why are you crying again?"

"Actually, life and death are predestined; this is something we all have to face eventually."

Ningguang wiped away her tears and looked up at her mother, saying, "Mom, don't say that. The money issue is resolved."

"Here's 50,000 Mora. I'll go get your medicine first thing tomorrow morning."

As Ningguang spoke, she showed her mother a bag of Mora.

Seeing the heavy bag of Mora, Ningguang's mother was first taken aback, then her face was filled with surprise.

"This, this..."

"Girl, how did you suddenly get so much money?"

Ningguang's mother had previously considered giving up on seeking medical treatment.

After all, fifty thousand Mora was a significant sum for their family.

Yet, she hadn't expected Ningguang to obtain fifty thousand Mora so quickly!

It was... quite unbelievable!

Ningguang explained to her surprised mother, "Mom, this money is borrowed from Brother Fang Xun."

"He hid the Mora in the lunch box and left this letter."

Little Ningguang showed her mother Fang Xun's letter.

Her mother carefully read the letter several times.

Finally, her eyes welled up with tears as she gently caressed Ningguang's little head, and instructed her, "The Brother Fang Xun you mentioned is a good person, I can feel it."

"We must not forget his kindness. If we are able in the future, we must repay him."

Ningguang gently agreed. Her thoughts coincided with her mother's.

Fang Xun had really helped their family so much.

First, he bought all of her Starconch.

Then, he traded expensive food from Wanmin Restaurant for her worthless grilled fish.

Finally, when her mother was seriously ill, it was Fang Xun who lent her the money to save her life.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Fang Xun was her savior.

She definitely had to repay this kindness.

It's just that Ningguang hadn't yet figured out how to repay him.

Because this kindness was so great and heavy,

it seemed that no matter how she repaid him, it wouldn't be enough...

I don't know why,

Ningguang suddenly thought of a phrase,

"I can only repay you with my body."

When this sentence appeared, Ningguang was stunned for a moment, then shook her head repeatedly.

What was she even thinking?

She couldn't linger too long when passing by the storytelling place in the future,

She'd heard too many strange words!

To the point that it unexpectedly popped into her mind.

Ningguang's pretty face flushed, feeling a little hot.

She was just a little girl who hadn't even started developing yet; how could she be thinking about such messy things?

Seeing that it was late, Ningguang was already lying in bed, preparing to rest.

Because the family wasn't wealthy, the mother and daughter could only sleep in the same bed.

Normally, Ningguang could fall asleep quickly.

After all, she sold goods during the day, walking and shouting, exhausting her body and mind all day long.

She could basically fall asleep the moment her head hit the pillow.

But tonight, she couldn't fall asleep at all.

Because Fang Xun's figure wouldn't leave her mind.

She lay in bed, quietly gazing at the moon outside the window,

silently praying for dawn to break quickly,

so she could guide Fang Xun around Liyue.

As for Fang Xun,

he walked along the bustling area of Liyue City, and a system prompt sounded in his mind.

"The talent [Wealth Returns After Spending] has been triggered. The host spent 50,000 Mora, which has now been fully returned, and has generated a twenty-fold critical hit!"

"Congratulations, Host, you have obtained one million Mora!"

As the system's notification sounded, Fang Xun looked at his Mora balance, which had immediately increased by one million.

He had to admit, this talent was really amazing!

Fang Xun had only lent Ningguang fifty thousand Mora, yet he had earned a million Mora in return.

This was very satisfying.

With this talent, Fang Xun was probably going to become a wealthy merchant in Liyue just by spending money.

Then, he could have the poor little Ningguang work as his secretary, using money to make money.

Wouldn't life be comfortable then?

How to choose between superpowers and the power of money?

The answer is, only children make choices; I, Fang Xun, want both!

Now that he had a million Mora, Fang Xun wasn't satisfied.

He wanted to continue investing in Ningguang. Firstly, he could make money, and secondly, he could improve Ningguang's favorability and get rewards.

It was killing two birds with one stone.

What a wonderful thing.

Fang Xun planned to use a stroll through Liyue as an excuse tomorrow to persuade Ningguang to be his secretary.

Then, he'd take Ningguang to buy a set of clothes and shoes.

After all, the little girl was already fair and delicate, quite adorable.

She should be wearing pretty little dresses, not rough, plain clothes.

Also, little Ningguang couldn't go barefoot on the ground; it would hurt her skin.

He had to take good care of the little girl's feet.

Fang Xun wasn't thinking about tea; he was simply considering Ningguang's well-being.

That's right, that's it!

With a detailed plan in mind, Fang Xun decided to find a place to settle down and rest.

After all, he had just transmigrated, and currently had no permanent residence, so he could only lodge temporarily.

But fortunately, Fang Xun wasn't short on Mora now, and there were plenty of inns in Liyue.

Fang Xun easily found an inn that looked quite decent.

As he approached, he heard the innkeeper's voice.

"Guest, are you here to stay?"

"Our inn is a great choice, you know."

Fang Xun raised an eyebrow instinctively, a little surprised.

This voice sounds familiar... like I've often talked to it in the game.

He looked up.

The innkeeper was a sophisticated woman in a light purple dress with a ponytail that fell over her shoulder.

She looked very mature and alluring.

Her eyes were captivating, her gaze shifting.

Ying'er!

Fang Xun recognized her instantly!
