Hearing the word "gift," a guilt-ridden Mi Xi almost fell from the sky, flapping her wings frantically to stabilize herself.
Looking at her colleague dripping with sweat, Yousi asked with a suspicious expression.
"What's wrong with you?"
Mi Xi shook her head nervously, with sweat pouring down her forehead.
"No, no, nothing… Just hand it over to me, and I'll pass it to Her Majesty. You better go back now."
Yousi: "Ah? Is that okay?"
Mi Xi unilaterally grabbed the remaining tribute and stammered.
"The Blood Palace is unmanned right now, right? What if Lord Demon King has an emergency? Don't worry, I'll tell Her Majesty it was your contribution!"
"Ah, the credit is a minor issue, Yousi would still be Qianqian's most trusted servant even without any credit!"
Puffing out his chest proudly, Yousi patted Mi Xi, who was holding a stack of clothes, on the shoulder as if instructing his own underling.
"Since Mi Xi has said so, I'll leave it to you then."
Mi Xi nodded hurriedly, not bothering to argue, focused solely on urging her to return home quickly.
"Go on, go on, no more chitchat."
...
Meanwhile, at Jingluo Nanbei's stall of the Jingluo Evening Group, Shadiao and Jingluo Nanbei were excitedly high-fiving, while Xiao Wan wore a nervous expression.
"Is this considered deceiving the customers?"
Jingluo Nanbei turned around with a smile.
"How could that be? I absolutely think Xiao Wan's craftsmanship justifies the price. If it weren't for breaking into the market, I'd even want to sell it for 900,000 Joss Papers."
"That's not what I meant… Of course, I'm glad you think so," she paused, suddenly recalling something from long ago, and whispered, "Ah right, about the comic dialogue, I was actually willing to pay 1,000 Joss Papers to listen, not 10…"
Shadiao was stunned at first, then burst out laughing.
"Hahahaha, you still remember that! Darn, this guy is kind of cute, Brother Jing, you should move out."
Jingluo Nanbei also couldn't help but grin, patting Xiao Wan on the shoulder.
"Don't mind it, Shashia's Mandarin. She's already very happy that you are willing to pay to listen to her talk... See, she's laughing like a fool now."
Shadiao: "Damn! Are you looking for a fight again!"
Although Shadiao was the first to jump into the fray, it was clear from the sequence of blows that Jingluo, who fought back, had the upper hand.
From Xiao Wan's skillful pleading, it was not hard to see that Shadiao often lost more fights than she won.
Xiao Wan smiled sheepishly.
She also felt she was being a bit too sensitive.
Perhaps friends shouldn't hold onto jokes for so long, should they?
"Darn! Xiao Wan! Come help me!!!"
"No way, Xiao Wan, wait... just wait a moment before stepping in, I'm about to win!"
Watching the two "bats" tangled up in a fight, Xiao Wan, caught in a dilemma, spoke with a cry and a laugh.
"Don't fight anymore..."
Not far away, Alakdo, who had just come from the construction site, spotted the Little Demons tangled in a fight, and couldn't help but let out a scoff.
"Hahaha, how embarrassing!"
Indeed, the Earth Cave Spider is the most loyal servant in the labyrinth!
Too bad Lord Demon King isn't here, otherwise he would surely want to show that scene to him!
But thinking about it, Lord Demon King seems unusually busy lately...
Remembering that Lord Demon King did not take him along on his recent inspection of domains, Alakdo laughed and laughed, but suddenly found himself feeling depressed.
