Guizhong and Hu Tao were not in their usual cheerful mode today. And instead, the ladies have their own reason to be very upset.
With furious expressions on their face, their eyes glared menacingly upon Zhongli and Xiao, who silently knelt in fear in front of them.
"Zhongli..."
"Yes?" Zhongli was too scared to raise up his face.
"Do you still remember what I said, huh?" Guizhong asked.
"Uh...y-yes..." Zhongli nodded slowly. "Not to spent our moras excessively"
Guizhong quickly pulled Zhongli's ear out of sudden.
"HAVE YOU FORGOT THAT OUR FINANCIAL SITUATION IS VERY BAD!?" Guizhong yelled. "I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THE ANTIQUE VASE YOU BOUGHT COST US 10 MILLION MORAS!"
"GUI, I'M SORRY!"
"Miss Gui, let me-" Xiao tried to explain.
"AND YOU, XIAO! AS THE NEW WORKER OF THIS FUNERAL PARLOR, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO KEEP ZHONGLI IN CHECK!" It was Hu Tao's turn to scold Xiao.
"But-"
"NO EXCUSE!"
"AS THE PUNISHMENT, YOU GUYS MUST DO EVERY CHORES FOR ONE MONTH!" Guizhong ordered.
"WHAT!?" Both of them were shocked. "But we-"
"SILENCE! GUIZHONG AND I'LL HAVE ORDER!" Hu Tao said in sternful manner.
Meanwhile, the Traveler Twins secretly peeked from outside of the window as they quietly observed the scene.
"You know, now I'm started feeling pity for Zhongli and Xiao" Aether said. "We shouldn't persuade them to buy our antique vase at all"
"Yeah" Lumine nodded in agreement.
The end.
