"Big brother, big sister, how do you think I sang?"
After finishing her song, Yun Jin jumped down from the stage and hurried over to Makoto and the others.
At this moment, Yun Jin was a bit nervous.
After all, this was her first time performing opera in front of strangers, and she wasn't sure how well she had done.
Raiden Makoto squatted down, reached out, and gently stroked Little Yunjin's head, then softly said, "I think your opera performance was very pleasant to listen to and very interesting."
Raiden Ei nodded along: "That's right, it helped us gain some understanding of liyue opera."
Hearing the Raiden sisters' praise, Yun Jin's eyes fluttered, filled with joy.
Receiving the audience's approval for her first opera performance was a tremendous encouragement for her.
Immediately after, Little Yunjin turned her head to look at Makoto beside her.
She was very curious what kind of evaluation Makoto would give.
Makoto was seen stroking his chin, then said with a serious expression, "Well then, let me tell you my thoughts."
"Insufficient emotion, unstable breath, rhythm too fast then too slow, the overall mess... These are all my shortcomings. Little Yunjin, you sang very well, much better than I did."
When Makoto spoke the first half of the sentence, Little Yunjin was so sad she almost cried, tears welling up in her eyes.
She hadn't expected to have so many flaws in Makoto's eyes.
But after hearing the latter half of Makoto's sentence, Little Yunjin finally broke into a smile.
"Big brother, is what you said true?"
"Do you really think Yun Jin's opera performance was good?"
Little Yunjin's large, tear-filled eyes stared intently at Makoto.
"You better not be lying to me."
She was afraid Makoto was intentionally comforting her, so she weakly added, "My mother said that only by humbly accepting criticism can one go further. I can accept criticism."
Looking at Little Yunjin's earnest expression, Makoto couldn't help but laugh.
The Little One was very cute, even cuter than he had imagined.
"Of course I'm not joking, I'm serious. Yun Jin's opera performance is very pleasant to listen to."
"I hope you can continue to maintain it, maintain your passion for opera, this initial aspiration."
Makoto paused, then continued, "As long as you persevere in opera, in time, you will surely become a famous performer of the Yunhan Troupe."
"By then, all of Liyue will know that there is a famous performer named Yun Jin."
"Who knows, many years from now, even the Rock God might come to listen to your opera."
All along, Yun Jin's wish had been to perform opera well and to make the Yunhan Troupe's name known to more people.
Hearing Makoto's praise now greatly encouraged Yun Jin.
"Big brother, thank you for your encouragement. I will work hard."
"If one day I can become the pillar of the Yunhan Troupe, then I can treat you to a late-night snack."
Little Yunjin spoke each word with exceptional seriousness.
Upon hearing this, Makoto subconsciously asked, "You also like late-night snacks? What a coincidence."
Little Yunjin nodded repeatedly: "Mhm, mhm, although late-night snacks aren't exactly healthy, indulging occasionally is also a pleasant thing."
"Then it's settled, this is our agreement, and this will be the proof."
As she spoke, Little Yunjin took off the phoenix coronet from her head and handed it to Makoto.
She could see that Raiden Ei had been staring intently at the phoenix coronet, probably because she liked it very much and liked liyue opera.
It was the first time Yun Jin had seen someone so fond of liyue opera, so she gifted the phoenix coronet to Makoto and his group.
After all, the Yunhan Troupe had no shortage of performance costumes, and there were many more phoenix coronets like this one.
"Then thank you."
Looking at the phoenix coronet Yun Jin offered, Makoto also did not refuse.
After all, Raiden Ei was very curious about it, and it would be nice to leave it for Raiden Ei to play with.
"Little Yunjin, since you've given us a gift, I'll give you one too."
As he spoke, Makoto took out a longevity lock from his pocket and handed it to Yun Jin.
Looking at the exquisite longevity lock in Makoto's hand, Little Yunjin instantly fell in love with it.
The main reason was the tricolor dango pattern on the lock, which was similar to the hair ornament she wore.
"I know you work hard practicing opera, so I'm giving you this longevity lock."
"This longevity lock symbolizes protection and peace, wishing you a safe and healthy growth."
Looking at the longevity lock Makoto offered, Yun Jin received it with both hands.
"Ding! Detected Yun Jin's friendship has increased from 0 to 1. Congratulations to the host for obtaining one intertwined fate."
Just then, a system voice rang in Makoto's mind.
