Rory happily accepted the storage ring Nix handed to her.
Then she quickly reminded him, "Nix, a lot of pearls rolled downstairs earlier. Remember to help me pick them all up."
Nix nodded without hesitation. "Got it. I'll go collect them in a bit."
Wen suddenly remembered how uncontrollably he had cried just moments ago. A faint blush crept onto his usually cool, composed face.
"Master… I'm not normally this emotional. I only cried so much because I thought you were sick and got too worried. Please don't dislike me for it."
Many females didn't like males who cried easily.
But how could Rory possibly dislike him? On the contrary—she adored it. He gave her so many pearls!
Not only could she use them herself, but she could also sell them for a fortune in star coins.
Wen was practically a walking star-coin generator.
