Genshin Impact Simulation: Starting with Melsin's Friend

Chapter 141 I'm a capitalist!

On the outskirts of Sumeru City, under the slightly darkening sky, stood an exquisite little villa, its carved glass windows letting in warm, orange light.

Under the lamplight, the shadows of people moving around inside swayed slightly, like a silent shadow puppet show.

However, this shadow puppet show, which should have been watched by no one, secretly gained four more spectators.

Shh... Keep your voices down.

Listening intently to the faint sounds coming from the villa in the distance, Tina's ears perked up, and she silenced her three companions who were whispering around her.

"Then we'll probably need to spend some Mora to buy four sets of precious relics."

Senora lowered her fox-wolf mask, revealing a proud expression on her face.

"Because silence is golden (or gold)."

Kavi: ...

Tinari: ...

Elhesen: ...

For a brief moment, the remaining three did fall silent, but not because they were wearing the Gold-Embellished Relic, but because the Freeze Reaction itself had a silence effect.

Sino's lame jokes always seem to allow him to use Flash at any time and unexpectedly appear anywhere.

Sometimes, reacting too quickly isn't a good thing.

"By the way, why hasn't Mu Feng come out yet?"

Kavi reached out and patted the ice shards off his body, silently planning to set up a hot coffee delivery function for his Mehrak when he got back to combat the severe cold brought by Seno.

Ding~ Your life assistant Mehrab reminds you that the weather in Xumi is sunny today, but there may be sudden small-scale cold waves in some areas. Please be sure to take precautions to keep warm.

However, before Tinaly could respond, Seno, his eyes shining, excitedly recited his lines.

"Because he is a 'wood bee,' he likes to penetrate deeply into the wood."

Three people:......

……

Meanwhile, someone inside the house arranging Dolly's new home was completely unaware that their reputation was about to suffer a devastating blow.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone."

Mu Feng paid the bills for the group of thirty mercenaries and quietly slipped a small tip to the men who had been busy all day.

The mercenary squad leader took the heavy Mora bag, weighed it in his hand, and immediately a look of delight appeared on his face.

In the past, scholars always hired them with an arrogant and condescending attitude, and it was common for them to find various reasons to deduct their salaries.

As for the kind of good thing that involves giving generous tips, that's something that only happens in dreams.

"Thank you for your generosity, Lord Mufeng. You are such a kind person."

"By the way, your daughter is adorable."

Several mercenaries confidently expressed their sincere gratitude, but a glance at Mu Feng, who stood there with a blank expression, revealed that the effect was not as satisfactory as expected.

If he remembers correctly, he's only fifteen years old this year, right?

It seems there's a reason why these guys' business is bad, and it's most likely related to their near-perfect eyesight and their skillful use of friend cards.

"Puch."

Little Dolly, who was helping Little Duoling who was already able to walk a little, happened to pass by. Seeing the depressed and indignant expression on Mu Feng's face, she couldn't help but secretly laugh.

The next second, her face was subjected to someone's wicked pinching and kneading punishment.

"Oh...it seems our lovely 'daughter' is very happy. Would you like to share it with your dear 'father'?"

Feeling utterly humiliated, Mu Feng pinched and kneaded the little girl's soft cheeks into various shapes while gritting his teeth and emphasizing certain words.

"Ugh... let go... mmm..."

……

A few minutes later, after a satisfied Mu Feng let go, Little Dolly regained control of her face, staring resentfully at the unscrupulous creditor in front of her.

Within just a few days, her positive impression of this guy had been completely shattered, but she couldn't bring herself to feel any aversion towards him.

"Alright, alright, let's go see your rooms."

Mu Feng ignored Dolly's reproachful gaze, reached out and patted Little Duoling, who was secretly trying to suppress her laughter, and happily pushed the two little ones upstairs.

Dolly's family's meager possessions have been moved to the garden, and the little girls' clothes and treasured keepsakes are neatly arranged in their new room. From this perspective, the mercenary team's service quality is quite satisfactory.

The mother of the two little ones had never seen such exquisite architecture before. She hesitated and dared not enter the house. After hesitating for a long time, she decided to go back to her original residence.

Mu Feng had no choice but to bring up the reason that his sick daughter, Duo Ling, needed someone to take care of her before he could finally persuade this somewhat stubborn mother.

Nevertheless, she only chose a small bedroom at the end of the corridor, but in the eyes of her mother, who had been poor for half her life, this was a life she had never dared to dream of before.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Mu Feng."

Xiao Duoling, struggling to her feet to express her gratitude, was gently pushed back onto the bed by Mu Feng.

"No need for thanks, little Duoling. Take good care of yourself and get well soon. You'll still need to help your sister pay off her debts in the future."

"I'm a ruthless businessman who eats people without spitting out the bones."

Mu Feng winked mischievously, making the little girl burst into laughter, and a sweet smile appeared on her slightly pale face.

What unscrupulous businessman would invest in a business that's guaranteed to lose money?

When she learned from her distraught mother that her sister had traded herself for the medicine that would save her, the despair and pain that welled up in her heart surpassed the pain caused by the disease.

She couldn't imagine what a bleak future her sister would face.

But in the end, luck seemed to favor them. They suddenly had a warm home, plenty of food, and enough medicine to support her to live well and watch her younger sister grow up.

Everything that she could never have imagined in her dreams before, all came true overnight, just like the fairy tales she had made up for her sister.

The price for all of this was a contract that didn't even specify a repayment date.

"Alright, alright, little Duoling, don't think about it so much."

“Your sister is a future big businesswoman, she won’t be short of my little Mora.”

Mu Feng smiled and put his arm around the still sulking Dolly, gently poking her chubby cheeks, which earned him a soft, rolling eye from the girl.

This guy really has a lot of confidence in her.

Seemingly sensing the little girl's protest, Mu Feng soothingly ruffled her pink hair, smiling without saying a word.

It's highly unlikely that he would lose money; he's a ruthless capitalist.

After he delivers a righteous backstab to his beloved mentor Azhar to rescue Nasita, he can then openly resign from his nine-to-five sage position and seamlessly transition to enjoying the life of a pampered life under the patronage of Lord Sanggo Mahabay.

It's impossible for him to fake his death. This isn't some yandere boss raising novel by Yaedo. Where would you find so many coincidental plot points about whether tomorrow or an accident will come first?

Maybe?

Goodnight.

Goodnight, Mr. Mufeng.

"Hmph, goodnight, my creditor."
