I'm a male god in Liyue

"Mr. Xia, congratulations."

"Miss Ningguang is here."

"Hey, isn't this Ying'er? What are you doing here?"

"Of course I want to be here."

"?"

"After all, I am now Mr. Xia's woman."

"You resigned from Chunxiang Kiln?"

"Yes, I resigned yesterday afternoon. Has your intelligence become that outdated?"

"I've been very busy these past few days, I don't have time to look into such trivial matters."

"Tsk, how heartless. You consider the whereabouts of your old friend a trivial matter. You have no time to care about your old friend, but you have time to come over for a massage. I even taught you my most precious things back then."

Xia Zhi's expression immediately became very interested.

What was the most precious thing that was given to her?

It can't be the kind of plot I'm thinking of, can it...?

Ningguang sighed helplessly, "...Don't always say things that are so misleading. All I'm doing is teach me how to make clothes. I can't be bothered to talk to you, Mr. Xia..."

"A massage, is that right? Please come in."

Ningguang followed Xia Zhi into the back hall and lay down on the small bed with practiced ease.

Xia Zhi lit incense and asked, "Does Miss Ningguang know Ying'er?"

"Yes, I've known her for a long time. Her sewing skills are excellent..."

Xia Zhi nodded. He remembered that he had once stolen a skill called "Tailor's Guide" from Ning Guang, and he figured that skill was taught to him by Ying'er.

"So Miss Ningguang makes her own clothes? I thought you always had them custom-made by high-end tailors."

"As a girl, you should at least know a little bit about these things."

"I see... Shall we use essential oils today?"

"Yes, I want it! That essential oil is really effective. My skin has become much smoother. I wanted to come back a couple of days ago, but I thought Mr. Xia was resting at his shop, so I waited until today."

"Right? Everyone says it works well. I've made two new essential oils, Miss Ningguang, would you like to try them?"

"it is good!"

Then there is no more then.

To be honest, Ningguang's touch is also quite nice.

Chapter 245 Ying'er, you don't want to go to jail, do you?

Shortly after, Miss Ningguang came out from the back hall.

She looked radiant, as if she had just received a great boost of nourishment.

She exuded a rich fragrance of essential oils, and didn't forget to give her secretary a little treat as well: "Bai Shi, you should go in and get a massage too."

Bai Shi blushed, feeling a little shy, but her body was still very obedient, unable to resist this pleasure. She responded and walked into the back hall with her head down.

Then, strange noises came from inside.

Ningguang glanced at Ying'er, who was about to tease her again, and ignored her.

She turned and walked to the bathroom behind the shop, quickly took a shower, and wiped off the essential oil from her body.

As a wealthy woman, she naturally possessed a storage artifact. She took out a clean set of clothes from it and changed into them. She also prepared a set for Bai Shi and placed it in the bathroom.

Back in the hall, Ningguang, fresh from her bath, possessed a delicate and charming allure, like a lotus emerging from the water.

By this time, everyone had finished cleaning the store.

It was about 5:30. It was late autumn, and the sky outside was already getting dark.

Ying'er walked over, looked at her and laughed, "Tsk, now Liyue will have new rumors. Lady Ningguang visited the Summer Shop at night, but when she left, she inexplicably changed into new clothes and looked very satisfied..."

Zhu Zi and Diona, listening nearby, couldn't help but blush.

"Not only that, it's said that Lady Ningguang comes to the Summer Shop five times a week, every single time. I'm so thirsty..."

"...Ying'er, you don't want to go to jail, do you?"

"She's anxious."

"..."

Ningguang sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation: "You... never mind..."

"I heard that you are going to hold a banquet at Qunyu Pavilion in two days."

"Yes."

"How heartless! They didn't even invite me."

"I was planning to stop by Tiger Rock today to eat and invite you over."

"I do not believe."

"Then when Mr. Xia and the others come over, you can stay in the shop by yourself."

"Forget it, I won't bother with you."

"..."

This person really has some serious illness.

Ningguang turned her head and looked at the Great Tree King.

No, to be precise, it was looking at the book that the Great Tree King was holding.

That was an economics book from Xia Zhi's original world, one of the books in the set that Xia Zhi bought from the [Mall] last time.

The Great Tree King was bored, so he borrowed it from his room to take a look.

Although the book is written in the language of the original world, the Great Tree King had seen Xia Zhi's life in the original world, so he could naturally understand it.

It's likely that only she and Xia Zhi in this world can understand this kind of script from another world.

Ningguang looked at the cover of the book in her hand, somewhat puzzled.

Although she is not fluent in the Teyvat language, as a Tianquan star, she is proficient in all seven languages.

But she couldn't understand the title on the book cover at all.

"Miss Xia Ci."

"Ok?"

"What are you reading?"

"Currency Wars"

"Oh?"

Ningguang was somewhat surprised.

Because "currency war" is a brand new concept proposed in the notes that Mr. Xia gave her last time.

This book even mentions it?

What is the meaning of "Currency Wars"?

"It's about reaping the wealth of other countries through currency..."

The Great Tree King uttered a series of words that sounded simple, but apart from Ningguang, no one else could understand them at all.

Ningguang's eyes brightened. Yes, that's it. She looked at the book in the Great Tree King's hand.

"Who wrote this book?"

The Great Tree King glanced at the unfamiliar name in the book and said, "Cousin, I suppose."

"It really is Mr. Xia! The writing style of this book doesn't seem to be his usual style?"

"This is the script used in my hometown; most people don't understand it."

"No wonder I couldn't understand it."

"If you want to know, I can translate it for you."

"Thank you."

Ningguang sat down next to her and began discussing it with her with great interest.

At first, Ningguang only wanted to learn the specific contents of the book from this little girl, but soon she discovered that Xia Ci's own insights were much more profound than the dry knowledge in the book.

A single casual remark from her was enough to resolve the long-standing confusion in Ningguang's heart.

This little girl has great wisdom!
