Huang Qiu''er hummed in happiness while checking the nes on the disy. Although these nes were ''skillfully'' made of rare materials and gems, they weren''t that attractive to Huang Qiu''er as she had seen many more precious treasures Huo Yuhao owned.
She was only interested in their shapes because the one made by native Tiny World held significant meaning and artistic value. Of course, she wasn''t pretentious enough to pretend she knew what those were.
Huo Yuhao smiled and leaned on the table, "If you''re confused about what to choose, I can choose for you."
"Um, then let me choose one for you, Master." Huang Qiu''er was stunned for a moment before replying to him.
"Sure."
Huo Yuhao scanned the disy and found a bright rose-gold ne with twisted chains. He examined the ne before giving the stall owner a sign by tapping his finger on the case.
The stall owner nodded and opened the case for Huo Yuhao.
"Here, I think this looks good on you." Huo Yuhao dangled the ne before Huang Qiu''er.
Huang Qiu''er blinked, feeling emotional because Huo Yuhao chose rose-gold nes for a reason. It was her second favorite color.
If you''re wondering what her first favorite is, the answer is starry blue.
Yes, the starry blue, like Huo Yuhao''s eyes.
At the same time, Huang Qiu''er grasped a pendant with her slender yet firm hand. It''s a unique-looking pendant with two different gems crossed into the shape of X.
The white and green gem elevated each other, creating the illusion of this flickering light.
"How much are these two?" Huo Yuhao asked the stall owner.
The stall owner utilized a quick mental calction and chuckled, "For you, young man? It would be 30,000 Belly."
Huo Yuhao shook his head because this stall owner was lying. But Huo Yuhao didn''t want to argue with this dishonest seller and pulled a few slips of paper from his pocket.
Also, 30k Belly didn''t mean much for Huo Yuhao.
He got them from Rossweisse, who opened some business in the Sacred Timeline.
"I will take some more nes, and this 150k Belly will be yours."
"Deal?"
"Deal!" The stall owner''s eyes lit up as he hurriedly grabbed the thin stacks of Belly in Huo Yuhao''s hand.
Huo Yuhao nodded, grabbing eight different nes.
Huang Qiu''er noticed the different styles and gems Huo Yuhao chose and realized they were for the otherdies. She didn''t seem surprised by this small act of kindness because she believed others in the group deserved rewards, too.
Huang Qiu''er also acknowledged that she couldn''t keep Huo Yuhao for herself. She might as well cooperate with other harem members, right?
After storing the nes in their own boxes, Huo Yuhao turned around and said, "Do you want me to help you wear the ne?"
"Mm." Huang Qiu''er replied with a not-so-calm heart.
"She did." Huo Yuhao chuckled, recalling the lucky pendant Yuna made for him before his journey to the Draconic Deus.
Even though the lucky pendant''s effect wasn''t sufficient since Huo Yuhao''s luck got upgraded again, he kept it in his inventory for safekeeping.
Huo Yuhao opened the rose-gold ne and gently lifted her soft blue hair, exposing her fair neck and corbone. He caressed the goddess''s wless skin with pure admiration, causing her to shiver and blush slightly.
He also couldn''t help but tease by blowing on her nape.
"M-Master, please don''t do that..." Huang Qiu''er hurriedly said with a soft and tempting voice.
"W-We are in public right now."
Her flustered tone was like music in Huo Yuhao''s ears.
"Oh, so I can do this and more if we were in private?" Huo Yuhao teased her further.
"Master~!" Huang Qiu''er pouted, looking very adorable.
"Kids, these days. Stop feeding us dog food and scram from our pure eyes!" said some Single Dogs who couldn''t bear seeing the couple happy.
"Yes, get the hall out of this ce!"
"This is a shopping district, not your backyard!"
Well, technically, this ce is Huo Yuhao''s backyard.
Huo Yuhao usually never bragged about his women. But sometimes, he did it for amusement.
He lifted his nose high for all the single men to see and boldly held Huang Qiu''er, pressing her body on himself and walking away from the shopping secret with a swag.
The look on his handsome face is ''shamelessly'' stered with, ''<i>Yeah, keep the jealousy. Your burning gaze is encouraging me to show off more!</i>''
<i>''Suck it, Maidenless crowd!''</i>
And the best part is they couldn''t do anything to Huo Yuhao. If they had an ill intention, the evil-warding runes would kick them off Elwood.
So, they could only bite their sleeves in frustration.
As they walked away, Huang Qiu''er giggled because this childish side of Huo Yuhao was new to her. She looked down on her cleave and touched the ne like it was her greatest treasure.
The rose-gold ne didn''t possess any god-like power, but it hold a sentimental value to her now. She unconsciously infused her divine energy into the ne, fearing it would break randomly.
Then, the dragon goddess recalled something.
"Master, If I''m not wrong. Teacher Yuna also gave you a pendant at some point, right?"
Huo Yuhao nodded, "She did."
While looking at the cross-shaped pendant in his hand, Huo Yuhao briefly pondered and added, "Yuna gifted me a pendant, which could protect me at the time."
"I still keep it in my storage, but this pendant from yours isn''t bad either."
"I will keep it safe."
Huo Yuhao flipped the pendant, casually turning it into a bracelet he could wear without hassle.
"Do you like it, though?" Huang Qiu''er blinked at him.
Huo Yuhao smiled, "Yes."
Afterughing at their foolish conversation, Huo Yuhao and Huang Qiu''er walked to the other shopping district and found Rossweisse in a high-end boutique.
Rossweisse looks and acts like your typical wealthy heiress, pointing her finger randomly at the row of fashionable clothes before throwing her money at the sellers.
Huang Qiu''er was a bit stunned. After all, the goddess of magic doesn''t seem to be that type of person.
"Are you surprised?" Huo Yuhao crossed his arms, seeing this.
"Um..." Huang Qiu''er doesn''t know what to say.
Huo Yuhao shook his head gently and exined, "To Rossweisse, buying new clothes is a form of rxation. She also could observe things from different perspectives."
"Well, the money of this world has little to no value to us."
"I bet Rossweisse has a couple of billions if not trillions, of Belly in her pocket after staying in the Sacred Timeline for fifteen years."
"I see..." Huang Qiu''er nodded solemnly. She understood now.
"Ara, Yuhao-sama, you''re here?" Rossweisse needed a split second to sense Huang Qiu''er and Huo Yuhao''s presence.
"Yeah, I met Qiu''er at the other district." Huo Yuhao replied while approaching the wealthydy.
"Woah, you''re hoarding this boutique."
Rossweisse smiled and replied, "This is just for a small sense of satisfaction."
"Here, I bought this for you." Huo Yuhao suddenly grabbed an aqua-blue gemmed ne for Rossweisse.
Rossweisse''s eyes lit up. She could tell this ne was only a mortal product, but what mattered was that Huo Yuhao was buying it for her.
The value of this ne is pricelesspared to the dresses and clothes she bought.
"Thank you, Yuhao-sama." Rossweisse epted the ne wholeheartedly.
"Hmm?"
The ne missed her hand.
"Let me put it on you." Huo Yuhao winked slightly.
Rossweisse flustered before nodding her head frantically.
Huo Yuhao gently unsped the ne before putting it around Rossweisse''s milky white neck.
"Ma''am, your purchase in total is 999,000 Belly." The clerk of the boutique walked to Rossweisse politely.
Rosswiesse snapped her finger, "Hurry, show me your most expensive suits for this handsome gentleman."
The clerk was shocked by Huo Yuhao''s handsome face before running to fetch their best suits. She is like a track star.
"Haha..." Huo Yuhao helplesslyughed.
Huang Qiu''er scanned around the dresses and mumbled, "Too frilly."
"Well, if you think so, let''s pick other styles for you, Qiu''er," Rossweisse pushed her to the changing room.
"Oh..." Huang Qiu''er didn''t expect this. With that, she got dragged by Rossweisse into an unknown territory.
