They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System

Chapter 118: Changing Hearts 2 Chapter 118: Changing Hearts 2 If she went straight to the old man with this idea, he might not believe her.

It was better to confirm the possibility herself and also make sure she had enough Good Points in case she needed to change the owner’s heart.

With renewed purpose, she turned and walked ahead, following the direction the Love System provided.

“Turn left.

Left,” the Love System instructed.

Nnenna followed the directions, walking straight for a few more minutes before making the turn.

When she did, she froze in surprise.

There it was, a shop in an excellent location, its design sleek and inviting.

It was the kind of shop that should have been claimed long ago, yet it stood empty.

“Why hasn’t anyone taken it?” she wondered, tilting her head.

Then it clicked.

“It must be because the owner refuses to lower the price.” Determined, she approached the shop.

But as she reached the entrance, she noticed no one was inside.

She scanned the area, then crossed the street to the shop opposite.

A young woman stood behind the counter, arranging some items.

“Hello, good afternoon,” Nnenna greeted politely.

“Do you know where I can find the owner of that shop?” She pointed across the street.

The woman turned, her eyes lingering curiously on Nnenna’s covered up appearance.

But she smiled warmly.

“Good afternoon, dear.

The owner should be around the back.

Just follow that alley and go around,” she said, gesturing toward the side of the building.

“Thank you,” Nnenna said, nodding before heading in the direction the woman pointed.
