He sighed and sat down, piquing Lin Daiyu's curiosity. She put down the poetry collection she was holding, personally handed her a cup of tea, and jokingly asked:
"What troubles the Goddess of Wealth? She still looks gloomy when she sees me. Could it be that I have offended her in some way?"
The God of Wealth lazily raised his eyes, his dark, inky eyes revealing a dangerous glint. He propped his chin on one hand and said:
"It's nothing, just a minor problem. My natal magic treasure, the Golden Book, isn't fully accumulated, so I can't find a wealthy enough person to buy or sell it."

Seeing the Goddess of Wealth's eyes light up and her leave without a word, Lin Daiyu gently tugged at her handkerchief and said:
