She raised her hands to her chest and waved them to show that she didn't care:
“It doesn’t matter.
"Let's talk business first. Didn't I tell you yesterday that my good friend has a cheap, high-quality house for rent?
"Look, I'm free today, so I brought Eula here. You can tell her what kind of room you want."
Eula was sitting next to Amber, her right leg resting on top of her left leg, her blue-purple metal shoes slightly off the ground, so eye-catching.
The shiny and tight over-the-knee leather boots perfectly outline the graceful curves of her legs. Her thighs have the same soft and white skin as Amber, but are fuller.
"I see. Is Miss Eula the good friend that Amber mentioned?"
There was a hint of curiosity in Li Qiuzhi's eyes. Although he knew it, he couldn't show it.
"Yeah, not bad." Eula changed the position of her legs, hugged her chest and said calmly, "It's rare that someone is willing to rent our Lawrence family's house. I can't help but be a little curious."
[Eula develops a favorable impression of you, gaining 30 points of favorable impression. The current favorable impression level is Lv.1 (30/100)]
Looking at the favorability prompt that suddenly appeared, he probably knew that Eula had a pretty good first impression of him, and that she was also Amber's friend, so naturally he developed a little bit of favor towards her.
Not bad, a good start.
When Li Qiuzhi heard what Youla said, he looked a little confused and asked doubtfully:
"Hey, why do you say that?"
Li Qiuzhi felt that he had a chance to compete for the Best Actor award. In order not to expose his abnormality, he had already mastered the skill of concealing his thoughts.
A hint of surprise appeared on Eula's fair face. Is there anyone in Mond who doesn't know the "great name" of her Lawrence family?
She looked carefully at Li Qiuzhi, who had short black hair and an ordinary Liyue face. So that's how it was. She hadn't thought about it carefully just now. Since she was not a native of Mondstadt, it was normal for her not to understand what she meant.
"It's okay if you don't know." Youla didn't tell Li Qiuzhi about the "sins" her family had committed thousands of years ago, and emphasized again, "Even so, I will still avenge you for leaving us out for so long!"
Although Youla said one thing on the surface, she was still a little concerned about Li Qiuzhi, who treated her without prejudice, especially since he was Amber's friend.
[Eula has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 75 points of favorable impression, and the current favorable impression level is Lv.2 (5/200)]
Uh. Li Qiuzhi looked at the prompt of gaining favor on the character panel, and for a moment he didn't know whether to be happy or unhappy. This Eula was too hypocritical.
Could it be that every time she says to her friends "I'll remember this!" or "Just wait for my revenge!", it is actually a sign of increased favorability.
It’s true. Haha, very cute.
"No, it's just that Eula's family did make some serious mistakes in history, but what happened a thousand years ago has absolutely nothing to do with Eula. It's just that everyone in Mondstadt can't let it go."
Amber lowered her eyes, placed her hands on her knees, and whispered to defend her friend.
"Well, since this is already a historical event, how can I be shaken by it? After all, no one can be sure whether one of their ancestors thousands of years ago was a member of a treasure-stealing group that harmed the local area, right?"
Li Qiuzhi used clever language to defuse the awkward atmosphere on the scene.
Amber leaned forward and nodded to show that she agreed. Eula leaned back against the back of the chair, raised her left foot and gently shook it, the heel touching the ground.
Li Qiuzhi thought about it and continued to talk about business:
"Ms. Eula, I did tell Amber that I want to find a better house. I don't want a high price, but it should be cheaper and a little bigger than this one."
Upon hearing this, Youla frowned, placed one hand on her thigh, and stroked her smooth chin with the other hand, looking as if she was thinking.
"Is there anything difficult about that?"
Li Qiuzhi was a little surprised. Could it be that such a simple condition was not possible?
"Ahem." Amber coughed slightly to attract Li Qiuzhi's attention. She opened her thin, soft lips slightly and explained in a low voice, "Although the Lawrence family has declined, they were once nobles after all. No matter how declined they were, they would not have such a disgraceful house."
"."
Sorry, Eula, I am too narrow-minded to ask you such a difficult request. Li Qiuzhi secretly felt ashamed of his inexperience.
I wonder if he can't even afford to rent the worst house in Lawrence's house.
This kind of misunderstanding shouldn't happen. After all, Amber knows his situation. Mora is not rich yet. Since she has found Eula, there will basically be no problem.
"Okay, I figured it out." After thinking for a long time, Eula raised the corners of her mouth and smiled.
She stood up from the chair she was sitting on and said, "I remember that our Lawrence family has an unused house on Fallingberry Street. Let's go over and take a look now."
"Yeah, Eula is really reliable." Amber clapped excitedly, then stood up and said to Li Qiuzhi, "Do you need to bring anything? We can help you take it so you don't have to run back and forth by yourself."
Li Qiuzhi didn't expect things to go so smoothly. It was really good to have a friend like Amber. He finally took a sip of cold water and nodded.
Many thanks to the readers who have collected, recommended, and followed the book. I wish you all a safe bet╰(*︶`*)╯
Chapter 27 Independent Courtyard
In fact, Li Qiuzhi didn't have anything worth moving here. Even the teapot for boiling water and bedding were provided by the rescue center of the Knights of Favonius.
He couldn’t take it away, and Li Qiuzhi didn’t want to take it away either, as he couldn’t afford to lose face.
Apart from a hunting bow and quiver, a few sets of spare clothes and towels, some daily necessities, two books borrowed from the library, and the most important Mora, there was nothing else.
So there is no need to ask the ladies for help.
But it is inconvenient to carry Morado with you, so you have to find time to deposit it in the bank, so you don’t have to worry about it being stolen by thieves at home.
Loloberry Street is located in the western district of Mondstadt, close to the city wall. It is named after Mondstadt's specialty "Loloberry", which seems quite appropriate.
It takes quite a while to get to the Knights of Favonius’ rescue point.
Eula and Amber walked in front, their two pairs of over-the-knee high-heeled boots making crisp and pleasant sounds as they stepped on the stone ground. Their hair, although of different colors, was equally soft and swayed slightly with the movement of their bodies.
It feels like being caressed by a light breeze.
On the street, passers-by in twos and threes would more or less cast curious glances at this strange combination of three people, especially when Eula was present.
Due to their identities as the Knights of Favonius, their unfriendly emotions were revealed from their bodies even if they were not shown on their faces.
Is Eula really so unwelcome in Mond?
Of course not.
There are still many enlightened people in Mondstadt. They remember the dark era of the old aristocracy, but they do not blame the descendants of the old aristocracy a thousand years later.
Just like the Knights of Favonius who govern and guard Mondstadt.
Since the rulers of Mondstadt don't care, more and more people in Mondstadt will treat the Lawrence family with a normal attitude in the future.
It cannot be changed, and there is no need to change it, just let it be.
"It's getting dark. Why don't you stop by the grocery store to buy some things you need? A kettle and cleaning tools are always needed."
Amber, who was walking side by side with Youla, suddenly stopped, turned around, put her hands on the soft part of her waist and looked at Li Qiuzhi and asked.
"Well, these are indeed necessities." Li Qiuzhi had no free space in his hands. He chuckled and said, "It seems that I still need to trouble you."
"Small idea!"
Soon, the three of them had their hands busy, as they had basically all the necessary daily necessities such as cooking, cleaning, and bedding.
The price was that the 100,000 Mora that had just been used up after the commission was completed had not even warmed up yet.
"Ms. Eula, is this the vacant house you mentioned!?"
Li Qiuzhi came to Luoluomei Street and saw the vacant house that Youla mentioned. He suddenly had the urge to turn back.
In front of him was a walled house. Looking through the solemn iron gate, he saw a grassy front yard that looked like it had not been maintained for a long time.
Then there is a two-story exquisite building in the middle, with two-meter-wide aisles on both sides away from the wall, and it seems there is also a backyard.
The overall feeling Li Qiuzhi had was that of a simply decorated villa. Although it was not big, it looked relatively high-end. Could he afford to rent it?
I feel like all the Mora in my body combined wouldn't be enough to pay for one month's rent.
"What, what's the problem?"
There was a hint of calmness on Youla's face. She stroked the ice-blue hair beside her ear with her right hand, slightly staggered her soft legs, and walked to the iron gate, preparing to open it.
"Don't you think this house is too luxurious for me?"
Li Qiuzhi had no choice but to tell the truth. If he had known that Lawrence's family rented out such a high-end house, he would not have come. Perhaps renting it for one day would be enough for him to live for a month.
"Originally, this place was built to be rented out to foreign merchants who came to Mond to trade, but unfortunately, most merchants are unwilling to live here after learning about the reputation of the Lawrence family in Mond, fearing that it would affect their business in Mond."
Youla picked up the iron lock hanging on the iron gate. After completing her task, she was taken to Li Qiuzhi by Amber and did not bring the key here at all.
Of course, this was not a problem for her.
"So, instead of letting it sit idle, it wouldn't hurt to rent it to you at a lower price." Eula held the iron lock, and a trace of cold air flowed into the keyhole.
The sound of ice freezing in the keyhole could be heard.
Finally, the key made entirely of ice elements was pinched between Eula's two fingers. She twisted it gently and as the mechanism turned, the iron lock was easily opened.
Li Qiuzhi's eyelids twitched as he watched. This was too convenient. With this trick, he would never have to worry about forgetting to bring his keys when going out.
"How about setting it at 100,000 Mora a month?"
Eula pushed open the iron gate and stepped into the front yard of the house. The wildly growing grass that had not been managed for a long time just reached the height of her ankles.
"It looks like we'll have to spend some time cleaning up here." Amber's fair face showed a hint of emotion. She couldn't even see the ground clearly in the front yard because of the weeds.
Li Qiuzhi was thinking about the rent.
One hundred thousand Mora a month was indeed very cheap. Considering the price of a drink at the Cat's Tail Tavern at 500 Mora, it was a great deal and he could afford the rent.
For example, today I took on a rather dangerous monster clearing commission and made some money back.
Even if you don't take such dangerous commissions, you can earn about 100,000 Mora in a week by helping others find things, running errands, and delivering letters.
So even though the Lawrence family has a bad reputation, it would not be rented out at such a cheap price.
This was definitely a decision that Eula made for Amber's sake, and after a short period of getting along, Eula also developed some feelings for her.
With the character's specialty [Girl Savior] having the effect of being more touching, it reached level 2, and the relationship between the two can be considered ordinary friends.
Therefore, based on these many factors, Eula was willing to rent this house, which could be called an independent courtyard, to him at such a cheap price.
"Ms. Eula, one hundred thousand Mora is indeed what I can afford. I would like to rent this place."
Although it might seem a bit shameless, Li Qiuzhi still decided to rent it.
Li Qiuzhi is not pretentious. He likes it here very much. If he refuses, it would be a waste of Eula and Amber's kindness. After all, they came here to help him.
Although they may not care about these small problems, Li Qiuzhi does. There is no way he can do anything about it. He is a sensitive person who doesn't want others to be troubled by him.
"Very good, I feel relieved as long as I feel satisfied."
A smile appeared on Youla's snow-white face. She held her hands on her upper abdomen and lifted her chest slightly, showing her full and round curves.
The semi-transparent black silk material of the garment is lightly covered by a light blue tie embellished with intricate golden patterns.
"Yeah... Next, let's clean up!"
Amber lifted her feet back, looking very interested.
The protagonist has been traveling in Teyvat for a long time and finally has his own place to live, yay!
Chapter 28 Preparing Dinner
As a rental courtyard that has been unused for a long time, it does take a lot of time to clean it up completely.
At this time, we have to rely on Amber and Eula, who are already friends. Since the weeds in the yard are too dense, we need to deal with them first.
If Li Qiuzhi were to do it himself, he would rather trample a path day by day. As the saying goes: There is no path on the ground, but if you walk more, a path will appear.
After two or three months, all the weeds in the yard were trampled down.
Now that Amber is here, there is no need for such trouble. Possessing the Eye of the Fire Element God, she can directly guide the fire element to burn the weeds one by one.
With Eula around, there's no need to worry about fire.
"Huh~ I'm finally done. If Keri were here, she would definitely be very happy."
Amber wiped the not-so-obvious sweat from her forehead with the back of her brown-gloved hand, probably just a habitual action after finishing her work.
Miss Amber, you seem to have said something dangerous. Li Qiuzhi silently complained in his heart when he heard her words.
The overly lush weeds in the entire courtyard were precisely burned away by the fire element, leaving only a little ashes covering the dirt ground. This did not require further treatment and could be solved by waiting for a rain.
Later, Eula used the same method to open the front door of the two-story building and said that the key would be brought to him tomorrow.
The trouble is that the door will not be locked tonight.
