Yan Fei shook her head and said, "No, I came here with Mr. Xia to look at the house."

Hu Tao blinked her alluring plum blossom eyes and asked, "The house? This haunted house?"

"Ah."

"finish watching?"

"I've finished reading it."

"what's the result?"

"Mr. Xia must have already made a decision."

Everyone else looked at Xia Zhi.

Hu Tao asked, "Have you decided to rent it?"

Xia Zhi paused for a moment, then said, "No, I'm going to buy it directly."

Chapter Twenty-Seven: What Kind of Shop Is It?

"Are you really going to buy it?"

"Ah."

"This is a house in Feiyunpo, it's very expensive."

"I happen to have some money on hand."

Hu Tao looked surprised. She glanced at her family's ancestral hall, then at the house, and asked the broker, "How much does this house cost?"

"The current price is 500 million Mora... Mr. Xia, are you sure you want to buy it?"

"Yes, I was just about to open a shop. This location is good, and the prices are reasonable. I'm very satisfied."

"Then, shall we go back and sign the property deed?"

"it is good."

The clerk locked the door again, and Xia Zhi politely said goodbye to Hu Tao and Zhong Li.

"Gentlemen, we have to go now."

Zhong Li nodded slightly, glancing meaningfully at Xia Zhi's black glasses: "Hmm."

Hu Tao looked at him, smiled and nodded: "You guys go ahead and get busy, right, Mr. Xia? We'll be neighbors from now on. Goodbye, Yan Fei."

Yan Fei smiled and said, "Goodbye."

As Xia Zhi turned and walked out of the 20-meter detection range, he still felt as if someone was watching his back. The feeling of being secretly watched only disappeared after he left the street.

It's so scary.

Recalling the glittering diamond progress bar he had just seen on Zhongli, Xia Zhi felt another pang of heart palpitation.

After all, the last being at the diamond level he had ever seen was that strange deity in the void. He and He had only exchanged a glance, and the divinity revealed in His eyes had almost driven him mad.

While both are at the diamond level, that Zhongli guest must be a deity.

However, he did not show any pressure; on the contrary, he appeared to have a very gentle demeanor.

His eyes seemed to have nothing special about them; he could walk down the street without being bothered by the stares of ordinary people.

This situation clearly contradicts the system's warning that "one should not look directly at God."

Thinking of this, Xia Zhi casually asked, "Miss Yanfei, who was that Miss Hu Tao just now?"

Yan Fei explained with a smile, "She is the current head of the Hall of Rebirth, and also the seventy-seventh head. She has a rather unconventional personality, as Mr. Xia will know after spending more time with her."

"Oh, and who is Mr. Zhongli next to her?"

"He is a mysterious guest elder invited by the Hall of Rebirth. He is very knowledgeable about various ancient rituals and the origins of minerals. His knowledge is so extensive that even the old scholars of Liyue cannot compare to him."

"Mr. Zhongli sounds like a remarkable person."

"Yes, although Hu Tao always complains that Zhong Li spends a lot of money and puts his expenses on the bill at the Rebirth Hall no matter which shop he goes to, she still trusts him a lot."

Xia Zhi nodded. Hu Tao and Yan Fei seemed unaware of the true identity of Zhongli, the guest elder.

Therefore, this is actually a deity who has concealed and hidden all his divinity and divine power, and only walks among mortals, trying to integrate into the mundane world.

If that's the case, then he probably just wants to have some fun and won't easily reveal his divine identity, so I don't need to be afraid of him.

Xia Zhi pondered all the way back to the brokerage firm.

After waiting a while, the original homeowner also rushed over.

After Yan Fei finished reading the contract, she told Xia Zhi that there were no problems, and Xia Zhi then signed his name on it.

After that, I went to the Northern Bank and transferred the Mora to the original homeowner.

After receiving the money, the original homeowner had a look of relief on his face, as if he had finally gotten rid of a huge burden. He even said he didn't want the original furniture in the house and gave it to Xia Zhi.

He probably thought it was bad luck.

Xia Zhi didn't mind these things and even thanked him.

He had checked the tables, chairs, cabinets, and other furniture when he viewed the apartment before, and they were all in excellent condition, almost new, so there was absolutely no need to replace them.

He would only buy new personal items like bedding.

After a busy morning, it was almost lunchtime, so Xia Zhi put away the house deed in his hand.

"Miss Yanfei, why don't we go eat first?"

Where is Mr. Xia planning to take me for dinner?

"I've heard that the moon dishes at Xinyuexuan are very famous."

"Mr. Xia probably doesn't know that you have to make a reservation three months in advance to get a table at Xinyuexuan."

"Wow, it's so popular! What about Liuli Pavilion?"

"The Glazed Pavilion doesn't need a reservation."

"Then let's go to Liuli Pavilion to eat glass vegetables."

The restaurant was crowded during mealtime, but fortunately, it wasn't full when Xia Zhi and Yan Fei arrived.

As Xia Zhi passed through the lobby, he saw a waiter greeting Yan Fei.

"Does Miss Yanfei often eat here?"

"Yes, but most of the time it's others who treat me to meals, like Mr. Xia today."

"I see."

The decorations inside the Liuli Pavilion are antique and have a strong Liyue style.

After sitting down, Xia Zhi handed the menu to Yan Fei and said with a smile, "Since Miss Yan Fei is a regular customer, please help me order."

Yan Fei readily accepted it and asked, "What would Mr. Xia like to eat?"

"I don't dislike any food, Miss Yanfei, just order whatever you like, don't worry about it being expensive."

"Then I'll order some of Liuliting's signature dishes: Yan Gang Three Delicacies, Dry Pot Cured Pork... and Minced Meat Tofu."

"Is this enough?"

"It's enough for the two of us."

After ordering, Yan Fei looked at Xia Zhi and asked curiously, "Mr. Xia, what kind of shop are you planning to open in that house?"

Xia Zhi thought for a moment and said, "I originally wanted to open a shop where people could relax their bodies and minds in a peaceful and comfortable environment."

"Oh? This kind of shop sounds amazing. Could you tell me more about it?"

"It's about creating a quiet space and using elements like water, light, incense, and music to satisfy and relax the body, mind, and spirit."

"How exactly is it used?"

"Through various effective methods."

"and then?"

"Gone."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Xia, I still don't quite understand what kind of shop this is..."

Xia Zhi paused for a moment, then said, "It's a massage parlor for the blind."

After hearing this, Yan Fei fell silent.

The atmosphere at the table suddenly became strange.

After a while, Yan Fei finally spoke: "I didn't expect Mr. Xia to have this kind of skill."

"Is Miss Yanfei surprised?"

"Kind of."

“There are very few jobs that blind people can do, so I have to learn some skills to support myself. Besides, I don’t think there’s anything shameful about this kind of work.”

"No, that's not what I meant... I just felt that Mr. Xia doesn't seem to be short of money."

"That's just because I'm lucky. Although I have a lot of money now, I can't live off it for the rest of my life."
