In Liyue Harbor, there lived a peculiar man.
He held a strange girl with a blank expression and a talisman on her head with his left hand.
With his right hand, he held a little girl who was dirty but had clean and bright eyes.
And on the man's back, a little girl was perched.
The little girl was exquisitely beautiful, and though young, it was clear she would grow into a stunning woman.
Especially her large, beautiful eyes, like rubies, blinked frequently, making people want to look at them more.
.....
"Beidou, we're here," Makoto said softly, looking down at Beidou.
"From now on, you'll live here with us."
"Starting today, this is Beidou's home."
Hearing Makoto's words, Beidou looked up at the exquisitely decorated house in front of her.
She subconsciously clutched her clothes, looking a little flustered.
Because she had always been drifting, often sleeping in fields or caves.
She knew she was dirty, so when she saw such a clean and beautiful house, Beidou's first thought was, what if she made the room dirty?
Beidou was a little scared, afraid that her presence would bring a bad influence to the house.
Makoto naturally saw Beidou's worries.
He reached out and ruffled Beidou's head, then chuckled and said, "Little Beidou, wait here for a moment, I'll go to the tailor next door to buy you a new outfit."
"Her daughter is about your age, so there should be new clothes that fit you."
After Makoto finished speaking, he walked towards Yu Jin's inn.
Buy... new clothes?
Beidou was stunned.
She hadn't expected Makoto to buy her clothes.
In Beidou's eyes, she wasn't worth Makoto doing that.
Beidou's eyes welled up with tears; this was the first time someone had bought her clothes since she could remember.
...
Speaking of Makoto.
He walked into Yu Jin's inn and immediately saw Yu Jin and Yae Miko.
At this moment, the two mature and charming older women seemed to be having a tea party, chatting and laughing, very joyful.
Perhaps because they were visiting Liyue and following local customs, Yae Miko had already changed out of her iconic red and white shrine maiden outfit and into a vibrant red cheongsam.
Her figure was already quite impressive, comparable to a Slime and Ganyu.
It was very dangerous.
And Yae Miko's long, slender, and shapely legs, wrapped in black stockings, added a touch of beauty, with her long legs intermittently visible as the cheongsam swayed.
At this moment, the two 'Car Kings' gathered, making significant contributions to the development of the Teyvat continent.
At this moment, Yu Jin was sitting on a chair, crossing her legs, and lightly swinging her shoe on her toes.
"Miss Yae, you are very right,"
"Makoto is indeed an impulsive person; he's not careful at all when doing things, and you can't expect him to take his time."
"Last time he almost caused trouble moving boxes."
Yu Jin pouted, her expression a little resentful.
Yae Miko also nodded, her charming voice slowly sounding, "Yes, Mr. Fang Xun is truly a heartless person; he doesn't consider other people's feelings at all."
"Today my tears almost fell... I mean, my heart ached."
"How could Mr. Fang Xun write such a painful novel? If it weren't for Gan Yu, I'd really send him razor blades."
Makoto unintentionally overheard the conversation.
He was quite surprised by this.
The topic of discussion between the two 'Car Kings' was actually him?
Makoto suddenly had a feeling that he might have come at the wrong time.
At this moment, Yu Jin also noticed Makoto's appearance.
She paused for a moment, then said, "You stinky little brother, Miss Yae and I were just talking about you, and here you are."
"What do you need?"
Hearing this, Yae Miko also looked up at Makoto.
Being stared at by this fox was not a good thing, because she didn't know what kind of mischievous thoughts were going through her head.
Makoto also spoke directly, "Sister Yu Jin, I'm here to buy a set of children's clothes for Ningguang's size."
Now Beidou and Ningguang are about the same height, and their figures are also quite similar, truly bound by CP attributes since childhood.
"Oh my, oh my, I just ordered a set of clothes two days ago, and you're already back to buy new clothes so soon?"
"You stinky little brother, you haven't lost yourself under Ningguang's 'Brother Makoto' calls, have you?"
"Then I want new clothes too, okay?"
Yu Jin couldn't help but tease Makoto.
But to make matters worse, Yae Miko, who loved to watch the drama unfold, was also there.
Her slender, fair fingers propped up her chin, and her lively beautiful eyes were full of slyness.
"Oh? I didn't expect Brother-in-law to be so playful. Does he secretly make Gan Yu call him 'Brother' too?"
"It's really hard to imagine Gan Yu calling someone 'Brother'; she's such a shy and introverted person. Just imagining the scene, I find it amusing."
Listening to the two 'Car Kings' teasing him, Makoto felt like a newbie who hadn't even left the beginner's village.
Normally, he couldn't even handle one 'Car King', and now with two 'Car Kings' teaming up against him, Makoto was even more overwhelmed.
"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore," Yu Jin said, covering her mouth with a light chuckle.
"Here, the clothes you wanted."
Yu Jin teased him, but she wouldn't delay the task Makoto asked her to do.
She retrieved the new clothes while speaking.
"Sister Yu Jin, same as always, the money's on the table."
"You two continue chatting; I won't disturb you."
Makoto took the clothes and left a bag of Mora.
And Yu Jin seemed accustomed to Makoto's generosity, so she accepted the Mora.
Looking at Makoto's departing back, Yu Jin playfully chided, "That stinky little brother just knows how to spend money lavishly all day, as if the money blows in with the wind. He's not even afraid of the day it runs out."
"I'll temporarily hold onto this money for him and return it when he runs out."
And Yae Miko also gazed at Makoto's departing back, a hint of interest in her beautiful eyes.
"This Mr. Fang Xun is quite interesting."
"If there's an opportunity, I can get to know him more deeply."
