"Baizhu, darling."
"Don't darling me!"
The green-haired male seemed unfazed by my words, just as he always did.
Introducing himself to my fellow companions, he made quick work in apologizing for Qiqi's little mistakes, as well as his late arrival.
I couldn't help but scoff.
'I don't hate many people, well hate is a strong word..... but he's an exception.'
Reasoning everything in my head, I calmed down before I faced the snake-like man.
"What Business brings you here?"
Zhongli, seeing as he was the one who needed it, asked for the everlasting incense in hopes that we could acquire it in time.
Of course, nothing ever came easy to the broke rich man, now did it?
"Of course we do, three million mora, top quality, guaranteed."
From the corner of my eye, I swore I could see Aether have an aneurysm.
"No way... FOR A FEW TRADITIONAL SMOKEY STICKS!? WHAT A RIP OFF!"
Baizhu didn't care.
No matter how many times we tried to reason with him, the price remained the same.
Three million mora was way out of our price range, and im pretty sure Paimon wouldn't have been willing to spare any of our mora."What are we gonna do?" The small girl floated nervously beside us, "Is this the part where we go crawling back to... childe?"
Once she said that ginger freak's name, she had hesitated, looking at me before she continued.
I sighed heavily, "great, sugar daddy is gonna have a kick outta this."

"AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH-"
"SHUT UP!"
To say we were embarrassed would be an understatement.
Having no option left to turn to, we were forced to call him here, and explain our situation.
This caused him to erupt in laughter, a state he's been in for about 5 minutes now.
"AHAHAHhahahah- co-cocogOAT! Cocogoat! Ahohaw, my sides hurt... I can't BELIEVE you fell for that! AHAHHAH-"
"Hey!" Paimon shouted at the jubilant male, "Less laughing, more Sympathy!"
Eventually dying down his laughter, Childe composed himself enough to help us with our small problem.
It was surprising, seeing as the way he acted before would have made it likely for him to simply laugh at us then walk off.
Maybe he's cleared his head since then.
Negotiations were made, and they managed to shave off a few mora by asserting a steady supply of Coconut milk for our darling little Qiqi.
"THAT'S ONLY 10 THOUSAND OFF OF 3 MILLION!"
It took me a while to do the mathematics, but once I finished, I realized Baizhu had barely taken off anything from the original price tag.
My sudden outburst amused him, as he chuckled in delight.
"Of course darling, I am still running a business here."
There he goes with the nickname.
Gosh, I hate to admit it, but it did make me flustered.
I imagine my face turned a burning red, as I backed away from Baizhu and semi-hid my form behind Zhongli.
