My anime/manga fandom can't be that lazy.

"Why build an amusement park? Why continue operating it even at a loss?"

Dongfang Bai looked at Latifa with some confusion. Clearly, a young girl like her living in such a castle with such a large piece of land would not lack money even if she rented it out.

Why do we have to build amusement parks?

"This amusement park is designed to absorb people's 'soul power.' As long as people are happy, this power will be generated, and I cannot survive without it..."

Dongfang Bai nodded. Looking at the devastation of the Glamour City Amusement Park, he figured Latifa must be terrified. Without people, there was no joy, and therefore no way to generate 'soul power'.

"Mr. Dongfang Bai, I have a capricious request..."

Latifa suddenly fell silent for a moment before speaking, looking at Dongfang Bai with a very serious expression.

"Please become the manager of this amusement park! Please revitalize this amusement park...!"

I knew it...

"Oh, I see. This amusement park is really in a bad situation..."

"So you mean...!"

Latifa's expression gradually brightened, and Dongfang Bai couldn't bear to spoil such an innocent and lovely smile.

"But I refuse."

Latifa paused slightly after being rejected, her face turning a little pale. Although she had been mentally prepared, it was still very painful to hear Dongfang Bai say it out loud, because Dongfang Bai really had no obligation to help them.

"I have no obligation to help this amusement park, so I'm leaving."

Dongfang Bai stood up without hesitation, ready to leave. Although Latifa was quite cute and had hit his sweet spot, he was not going to be a tool for her.

You expect him to help you without doing anything? What are you thinking?

In Dongfang Bai's eyes, although cuteness is great, cuteness does not equate to justice and should not interfere with his thoughts.

"Please reconsider...!"

Latifa cried out in pleading. Her pitiful appearance was quite endearing, and her eyes were already misty, as if large tears would fall at any moment.

I inexplicably feel a sense of guilt...?

"The oracle we received tells us that you can save this amusement park... We are willing to pay any price to revitalize Gan City!"

Wow, all the cost...?

Dongfang Bai raised an eyebrow. Why did all the girls he had met seem to like saying things like "I'll do anything" or "I'm willing to pay any price"? This misunderstanding was far too great.

If he were a bad person, he would have already made some special demands.

"Anything is fine?"

Dongfang Bai slowly sat back down, picked up his black tea, and at that moment, an idea came to his mind.

"Then I want 60 percent of this amusement park."

[PS: Wryyyyyyy! ! ! ].

"This... means..."

Latifa was taken aback. As a princess of the magic kingdom, she was completely unable to deal with Dongfang Bai's cunning business tactics and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"The gist of it is that I am personally willing to invest in this amusement park and serve as its manager, but I must be given 60 percent of the shares in the park, meaning that three-fifths of the park belongs to me."

Three-fifths!?

Latifa's cute little face turned a little pale. She never expected Dongfang Bai to suggest going there. This was really too much for Gan City, the lifeblood of the magic kingdom 'Red Maple Paradise'...

"Can't……"

Sento Isuzu, standing behind, spoke up, her brows furrowed. "How can we give up three-fifths of this amusement park?!"

This is outrageous!

"Then there's nothing to discuss."

Dongfang Bai shrugged, looking indifferent, because the fate of this amusement park was completely none of his business. He would only do his best to compete for the greatest benefit, otherwise he would never do anything 'helpful'.

Why would he help this amusement park? Just because the princess is cute? You're overthinking it. Dongfang Bai is an extremely lazy creature. If it weren't for the fact that he needs money for food, he wouldn't even bother to earn money.

"this……!"

Latifa was silenced by Dongfang Bai's words. She opened her mouth but couldn't say anything, as if her voice was stuck in her throat.

The reason Dongfang Bai wanted three-fifths of the amusement park's shares was because he sensed that Gancheng had a large plot of land, and if properly developed, it might become a popular amusement park.

He's a child of the Dongfang Bai family. What's the point of him coming to Japan alone to write light novels and make money? Even if he builds an ACG empire, so what? Even if his adoptive grandfather approves, his adoptive father won't.

You must have one or two of your own businesses. Besides, didn't the old man say he'd set up a company for himself in a couple of years and manage it himself? It's good to prepare and get used to it now.

However, if Latifah is unwilling to accept his investment, he will not force her, because in his view, the amusement park will collapse within a few months if it is not properly managed.

The losses are just too huge. Money doesn't grow on trees. Gan Cheng's ability to make money is not even as good as the love hotel next door.

"...Please, please wait a moment."

Latifa stopped Dongfang Bai from leaving. She bit her lip lightly, as if she was making a difficult decision.

This amusement park is an old establishment that has existed for several years and is also the property of Red Maple Amusement Park. This amusement park is also the most basic guarantee for Latifa's survival.

If this amusement park is lost, then Latifa will be unable to absorb the soul power converted from people's 'joy' to survive, and will easily die.

This was a curse placed upon her.

"If...if Mr. Dongfang Bai could...could..."

Latifa's face was flushed, and her voice was incredibly soft. If Dongfang Bai hadn't been used to a voice similar to Sagiri's, he really wouldn't have been able to hear it.

"Yes, we can give Mr. Dongfang Bai 60% of the shares."

"Latifa...!"

Sento Isuzu stared wide-eyed in disbelief. Even if the 'oracle' said that Dongfang Bai could save the amusement park, 60% of the shares was too outrageous. Could it really be given away so easily?

Dongfang Bai was taken aback, but he quickly suppressed his emotions and his expression returned to calm.

Holy crap! He just casually made an outrageous offer, which is a common tactic used by businessmen before negotiating prices. They start by offering a high price, giving the other party a chance to lower it until both parties are satisfied with the result.

But! He never expected that Latifa would agree to such an outrageous condition—60% of the shares! If he got it, the amusement park would practically be his.

Because if Latifa only owns 40%, she cannot refuse Dongfang Bai, who owns 60% of the shares. Originally, Dongfang Bai's ideal 'price' was around 40%...

I never expected that this little princess would actually agree...!

Shocked. There's nothing else to say but shock.

“But… if, if Mr. Dongfang Bai is willing to… marry into the family of Floranza, then this matter will… not be a problem.”

Latifa's pretty face was flushed red, as if she had used all her courage to say those words. Her gaze was fixed on Dongfang Bai, making his scalp tingle...

What……?

Dongfang Bai touched his ears, wondering if he had misheard. What did this little princess just call him for?

Marrying into another family?

Is this for real?!

What does "matrilocal marriage" mean? Matrilocal marriage refers to a situation where, after a man and woman get married, the man moves to the woman's family home to settle down, and at the same time, the original surname change is reversed, and the man must change his surname to that of the woman.

..... ....... ...

This is a term of address that only existed in ancient times. In modern society, this kind of "reverse marriage" situation is no longer seen at all. In a sense, it means that the relationship between men and women is reversed.

And, if I'm not mistaken...

“Latifa, Floranzamofi…”

“That’s right, now the Floranza family… only has me left.”

As Latifa spoke, her gaze dimmed slightly, but these words made Dongfang Bai's head explode. He unconsciously tapped the table lightly with his right index finger.

This is incredible! This is incredible! This is incredible!

So, Latifa's idea is that she wants Dongfang Bai to marry her, and then Dongfang Bai will become a member of her family. That way, even if she gives up 60% of the shares, it won't matter...

This is terrible! Although Latifa is a very cute girl and suits Dongfang Bai's taste, she's still... she looks only fourteen years old. Is she already at the age to get married?!

I rely on...

Looking at the shy and adorable little girl in front of him, Dongfang Bai finally understood why she had blushed and stammered before, unable to speak...

So that's what she wanted to say, but she was too shy to say it!

Dongfang Bai now wished he could slap himself in the face. He had fallen for his greed and made exorbitant demands, which had forced Latifa to offer herself in return...

"..."

Dongfang Bai walked slowly on his way home. He scratched his cheek in frustration and sighed deeply. To onlookers, he seemed completely baffled as to what he was doing.

He was at a loss for words. He had never anticipated this. He had been in this state ever since he left Gancheng, and it was hard to find anything to say about it.

……

"Mr. Dongfang Bai, what...what do you think?"

"Latifa..."

Sento Isuzu frowned, but she remained silent, because Latifa was still the manager of the amusement park; she was merely a guard in the Royal Guard...

"Ah, how about this?"
