"Boss, you really know how to enjoy life."
Watching the unusually well-behaved purple cat nestled obediently in Han Feng's arms,
Noelle couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
To make the famous Yuheng Keqing turn into a cat just to be petted—
That was probably something only Boss Han could accomplish.
If word got out, it would absolutely shatter the jaws of the people of Liyue.
"By the way, this should be Keqing's thank-you gift, right?"
After teasing the purple cat for a bit, Han Feng smiled and looked toward Ningguang.
"I wonder—does the Tianquan, Lady Ningguang, also have some form of thanks prepared?"
"Of course."
Ningguang replied with a graceful smile.
"If Boss Han is willing, you're welcome to visit my Jade Chamber later on.
At that time, I'll personally entertain you to the fullest."
She paused, then added meaningfully,
"And if luck is on your side… you might even get to see a good show."
"A good show, huh…"
Although Ningguang was being deliberately vague, Han Feng understood immediately.
A 'good show' that Ningguang would mention—
There was really only one possibility:
Beisht, Osial's consort, who might appear later.
Thinking of that, Han Feng nodded without hesitation.
"Alright. Then I'll look forward to Lady Tianquan's hospitality."
Having come to Teyvat, if he didn't visit the Jade Chamber at least once, it would be a real shame.
"Then I'll be awaiting Boss Han's arrival."
Seeing him agree, Ningguang's eyes lit up with delight.
After chatting briefly, she stepped away from the counter.
She didn't leave the shop, however— instead, she leisurely began examining the figurines inside.
Previously, all her attention had been on the manga.
This was actually her first time carefully looking at these items, and they immediately sparked her interest.
Before long, her habitual merchant mindset kicked in.
"These figurines are vivid and exquisitely crafted… If they were sold outside, they'd definitely fetch a high price."
After Ningguang left, Han Feng turned his attention to the system.
[Host: Han Feng]
[Manga: One Piece – East Blue Arc, Cardcaptor Sakura, Digimon Adventure, Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Cooking Master Boy, Cautious Hero, Detective Conan, Journey to the West, Tom and Jerry, Doraemon, Mr. Vampire…]
[Task 1: Receive 10 customers to draw one manga — 11/10 completed, 1 draw available]
[Task 2: Receive 250 total customers for a special reward — 39/250 completed]
"System, draw a manga."
Seeing the available draw, Han Feng gave the command.
[Drawing…]
[Manga drawn — Your Name]
[Your Name:
The story takes place one month before a comet that returns once every thousand years.
In the rural town of Itomori, high school girl Mitsuha lives a gloomy daily life, troubled by her father's election campaign and the old customs of her family shrine. Surrounded only by overly meddlesome elders, she yearns for life in the big city.
One day, she dreams of becoming a boy—waking up in an unfamiliar room, with unfamiliar friends, in the streets of a great metropolis.
At the same time, Tokyo high school boy Taki Tachibana dreams of becoming a girl in a remote mountain town.
Thus begins their mysterious and fantastical encounter.]
"This one's interesting."
Han Feng's interest was clearly piqued.
He remembered this film vividly from his previous life— he'd even gone to see it in theaters.
The body-swap premise, combined with overlapping timelines, made it incredibly compelling.
"If someone in Teyvat were to draw a body-swap reward from this…"
Han Feng smiled faintly.
"That would be pretty entertaining."
Buzz—
A dazzling light descended from above.
Moments later, a brand-new manga appeared in Han Feng's hands.
"So it's a new manga."
The purple cat nodded knowingly.
No wonder Boss Han had been smiling earlier.
"This is a very interesting manga.
If you're curious, you can come read it sometime."
Han Feng said with a smile when he noticed the cat paying attention.
With a wave of his hand, the manga flew neatly onto the shelf.
"An interesting manga, huh… I'll read it tomorrow."
The purple cat thought quietly to herself.
Not long after—
A cat-eared, cat-tailed girl walked into the shop.
"Phew! It's finally open!"
To make this visit possible, she'd even secretly skipped work at the Cat's Tail Tavern.
Thankfully, the result was worth it.
"Miss Diona, are you here to read manga?"
Noelle greeted her with a smile.
"It's 100,000 Mora per person.
You can only read once per day."
"W-What?! That expensive?!"
Diona was startled.
She knew reading here could earn rewards, but she hadn't realized the price was this high.
"Then… will you read?"
Noelle asked gently.
"O-Of course!
Then I'll trouble you, Miss Noelle."
Diona turned slightly to the side, acting a bit tsundere.
The price was high, sure—
But as the saying goes:
Since I'm already here, if I just leave now, wouldn't people laugh at me for being broke?
As the star bartender of Cat's Tail Tavern and a rising star in Mondstadt's alcohol industry,
Diona still had some Mora to her name.
"Then please come with me."
Noelle was already familiar with Diona's slightly tsundere personality, so she didn't mind.
The two of them walked toward the counter.
"Just place the Mora on the counter, then head over to the shelves to pick a manga."
Noelle explained.
But she soon noticed—
Diona wasn't paying attention to her at all.
Instead, her gaze was fixed behind the counter.
And there was a hint of… envy in her eyes.
Envy?
Curious, Noelle followed her line of sight—
And immediately understood.
She was watching Boss Han petting the cat.
But… why envy?
"Does Miss Diona also want to pet a cat?"
Noelle wondered to herself.
It seemed possible.
After all, Lady Keqing was beautiful, and her cat form was naturally adorable.
However—
What the innocent maid didn't realize was—
She had guessed completely wrong.
Diona wasn't jealous of Boss Han at all.
She was jealous of the purple cat in his arms.
