Most people buying a house would try every possible way to haggle, right?
But Makoto, on the other hand, not only didn't haggle but kept raising the price, as if he couldn't wait to let Yu Jin earn more.
This series of actions left Yu Jin stunned; she had never seen a customer like Makoto before.
So, she completed the transaction in a daze.
After the transaction, Yu Jin always felt that something wasn't right.
Did she just get on Makoto's pirate ship?
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for triggering the Talents 'A Thousand Gold Pieces Scattered, Yet They Return Again,' and receiving a double critical hit, gaining four million Mora!"
At the same time, the system's notification sound rang in Makoto's mind, and the Mora in his backpack increased by four million.
That's four million Mora!
If he were in the game, earning that much money would require painstakingly grinding Ley Lines for who knows how long.
But now, Makoto had earned it effortlessly.
It could only be said that the Talent 'A Thousand Gold Pieces Scattered, Yet They Return Again' was truly amazing.
Spending money was earning money, and the more he spent, the more he earned.
Makoto believed that as long as he continued to maintain this state, one day, he would also be able to smash Qunyu Pavilion as freely as Ningguang.
Just as Makoto was looking forward to the future, he felt Ningguang in his arms stir.
Ningguang lifted her small head, and then her watery big eyes looked at Makoto.
"Makoto Gege, Ningguang is awake!"
"Let's follow the itinerary and go explore the next place!"
After a nap, Ningguang felt that her previous fatigue and drowsiness had completely disappeared.
She was full of anticipation for the upcoming journey.
However, as the little girl spoke, her voice suddenly paused.
Her expression also changed from the previous excitement to sadness.
Because Ningguang was surprised to find that it was no longer noon; the sun had even set, and it was nearing night.
Ningguang thought she had only slept for a little while, but she didn't expect it to be so late when she woke up.
If she had known this would be the result beforehand, Ningguang would never have allowed herself to take this nap...
The more Ningguang thought about it, the more she blamed herself and felt annoyed, lowering her head like a child who had done something wrong.
Because Makoto Gege was so good to her, so good that Ningguang didn't know how to repay him.
However, as a guide, she had not fulfilled her duties, which was truly inexcusable.
Makoto Gege must be very disappointed in her, right?
The more Ningguang thought about it, the more guilty she felt, until finally her eyes were red, and tears were about to fall.
Ningguang's action completely flustered Makoto.
The little girl was fine a moment ago, why was she about to cry in the blink of an eye?
Makoto quickly asked, "Ningguang, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ningguang shook her head, saying remorsefully, "Ningguang promised Makoto Gege that I would take him to explore Liyue today..."
"But Ningguang overslept and delayed many plans."
"Makoto Gege, I'm sorry, Ningguang is an irresponsible guide, and I've disappointed you."
The little girl's voice choked, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
Upon hearing this, Makoto was immediately torn between laughter and tears.
He was wondering why Ningguang suddenly started crying; it turned out to be because she overslept.
He didn't expect this little silly goose to blame herself over such a thing; it was truly too cute.
Makoto squatted down, gently wiped away the tears from Ningguang's face, and then said softly, "Silly girl, you really don't need to blame yourself."
"Because Gege has never blamed you."
"In my opinion, you haven't done anything wrong."
"So what if you overslept? It just delayed the itinerary a bit, we can go exploring tomorrow, these are all minor things."
Listening to Makoto's comforting words, Ningguang cried even harder.
The more gentle and doting Makoto was, the more she blamed herself.
Seeing the little crybaby getting stuck in a rut, Makoto had no choice.
He could only pretend to be angry and say, "Little girl, let this matter go. I have already forgiven you."
"Don't overthink it or cry anymore, otherwise Makoto Gege will really get angry, okay?"
Hearing Makoto say this, Ningguang immediately hugged Makoto's arm and said weakly, "Makoto Gege, don't be angry, Ningguang won't cry anymore."
As she spoke, the little girl bit her lip lightly, trying hard not to shed any more tears.
This appearance was both adorable and heartbreaking.
Makoto's heart immediately softened, and he couldn't bear to show a stern face to Ningguang.
So he gently comforted her, "Silly girl, you're still just a six-year-old child right now. Don't put such a big psychological burden on yourself, okay?"
Hearing Makoto call her a child, Ningguang immediately pouted and defended herself, "Makoto Gege, Ningguang is not small!"
"Mommy said that Ningguang can ease the burden on our family, so I'm already an adult!"
Makoto patted her little head, and then dotingly said, "You're still young now; it'll be a few more years before you grow up."
"Even if you are an adult, as long as I'm here, you don't have to grow up, understood?"
Ningguang's expression was a bit dazed when she heard these words.
All along, she had eagerly hoped to grow up quickly, wishing she could wake up one day and already be an adult.
Because only then could she earn more Mora and improve her family's living conditions.
But until today, Makoto told her that she didn't have to grow up.
The little girl's eyes welled up with tears again, but she didn't dare to cry, afraid that Makoto would get angry.
So she could only bite her lip lightly, looking at Makoto pitifully.
Makoto was also amused by her appearance; he gently rubbed her head and said softly, "Let's go, I'll take you to see your new home."
