Chapter 598

Sigong Hiyori: "Mm."

【Ding, Sigong Hiyori claimed your red packet.】

Sigong Hiyori: "Goodbye everyone, I'm off to cultivate."

Su Xiao: "@Sigong Hiyori, why not take out a loan to buy a Heaven Cave? With a Heaven Cave, you'll have your own private space. Then you can ignore all the Sigong family's affairs whenever you want."

Sigong Hiyori: "Can this be bought outright with a loan? I don't have any collateral."

Xiao Mai: "Hehe, no collateral needed. To you, a Heaven Cave is precious; to Lord Dao, it's just an ordinary item. This is actually Lord Dao's support for everyone!"

Sigong Hiyori: "I'm just an ordinary person with no value."

Xiao Mai: "Young Lady, don't be so calculating. As someone from a great family, you've probably rarely experienced genuine human emotion. Between people, there may be self-interest—but there's also precious feeling."

Yotsuya Miko: "Exactly. Think of Hayasaka Ai—does she only care about you for your utility?"

Sigong Hiyori: "Ai is different!"

As she said this, Sigong Hiyori suddenly understood.

Is this what emotion is?

Lord Dao's care for everyone!

Hayasaka's care for me, my care for Hayasaka.

So I've already had all this—I just never noticed.

Sigong Hiyori: "Thank you all. I'll take out a loan for a Heaven Cave too."

Huang Rong: "【Red Packet】Congratulations, Young Lady, you've finally seen the light. A life of nothing but self-interest lacks color. Now, welcome to the real human world!"

Sigong Hiyori: "Thank you all. 【Red Packet】I've accumulated some check-in points and exchanged them for gold—though not much, use it for fun."

Anya: "Wow, sister's giving out gold! I'm going to buy tons of peanuts and give them to everyone!"

Su Xiao: "Anya, you check in every day—don't you have enough gold already?"

Anya: "Mom says exchanging points for gold is a bad deal—she won't let me do it!"

Zhang Taixuan: "@Anya, fine, don't exchange it. If you're short on cash, ask Dad."

Anya: "Wow cool wow cool, it's Dad!"

After chatting a while longer, Sigong Hiyori ended the conversation, eager to share her joy with Hayasaka Ai.

If before she had been a calculating noblewoman, seeing only profit,

now she had developed her own emotions.

She felt her heart pounding faster than ever—thump, thump, thump—a beautiful sound.

It seemed her blood had grown warm.

And now, a beautiful smile appeared on her face.

"Young Lady, what's wrong with you (Li Hao)?" Hayasaka Ai was stunned.

Having served Sigong Hiyori for so many years, she had never seen her Young Lady smile so brightly.

Sigong Hiyori smiled: "Ai, I've understood something. Between people, it's not just about profit—there's also emotion."

Hayasaka Ai froze.

"Hayasaka, let's cultivate. After we cultivate, we can open the Heaven Cave and set up our own little world inside."

Hayasaka Ai was shocked: "Heaven Cave?"

Sigong Hiyori nodded and explained the function of the Heaven Cave.

Hayasaka Ai listened, dazed—she never expected such a transformation in her Young Lady.

Previously she'd worried about the loan, but now her Young Lady hadn't just exchanged check-in points—she'd taken out a loan to buy an entire world.

"Young Lady, Miss Fujiwara has come to visit," the servant suddenly announced.

"That Earth's curse?" Sigong Hiyori raised an eyebrow, recalling the nickname for Fujiwara Chika from the anime.
