Genshin Impact: Zhongli discovered that he was stealing tributes at the beginning

Wu Ye poured less than half a cup of tea into the teacup in front of Diluc, and then stretched out his hand to signal the other person to drink tea.

Seeing this, Diluc felt reassured. He knew that there is a saying in Liyue that "you should treat people with wine and see them off with tea."

"Mr. Morning Star is so complimentary. The students in the academy are willing to learn swordsmanship from me just because they think it's novel or to make them look cool. I only teach them for the purpose of making them stronger."

"To be honest, I was bored and looking for something to do to kill time, otherwise I would become slack."

"I see," Wu Ye nodded, "From the letter you wrote to me before, I know that you are the owner of a winery. This season should be the most suitable for making wine. There should be wine in the winery. There are many things that you need to take care of yourself."

"Yes, but compared to the winery, there is something more important before me... No, it should be the most important thing, because it is related to the future of the entire Teyvat continent." Diluc looked at Zhuo Zhuo looked at Wu Ye.

Wu Ye poured himself a cup of tea and smiled slightly, "Please tell me, I also want to know what Mr. Diluc is willing to spend a month waiting for my return."

"Okay." Diluc was also unambiguous. He took out the secret scroll in his arms and unfolded it for Wu Ye to see. He also warned him to just recite it silently and not to say it out loud, just in case.

Looking at the words "Adventurer", "Old World", "Abyss", "Heaven" and other words that appeared on the secret scroll, Wu Ye looked calm.

"I understand. This is a mission entrusted to you by the intelligence organization behind you. If Mr. Diluc is here just for this matter, then I can tell you now that your mission is completed."

Diluc was stunned for a long time, still not understanding Wu Ye's words. He asked tentatively: "Mr. Morning Star, so what is your choice?"

"I have already made my choice, and the door to the new world has been opened for you." Wu Ye blew lightly on the steaming tea, and then took a sip.

"What do you mean?" Diluc was even more puzzled.

Wu Ye smiled and said nothing, just filled the cup in front of Diluc with tea.

Upon seeing this, Diluc was silent for a while, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he finally understood what Wu Ye said.

"Thank you, Mr. Wu Ye." Diluc gave Wu Ye a standard knight's salute and then left the Kaiming Palace.

Wu Ye walked him to the door and watched him leave.

When Diluc was about to turn the corner, he suddenly looked back and found the figure still standing at the door looking at him with a smile.

But soon his sight was blocked, because several old men and women who were pushing carts to sell fruits and vegetables in the market gathered around Wu Ye and stuffed the fresh seasonal vegetables from the cart into the latter's hands. After some serious persuasion, I still had no choice but to accept.

"Lord Venus, just accept it. You are a good official who is willing to work for our people. We have nothing to repay you but can only give you some worthless things."

"Mom, please don't say that, this is what I should do..."

"A gentle and courteous king of the world..."

Diluc withdrew his gaze. He was in a good mood and said goodbye to Sora, Paimon and Li Zi before setting off back to Mondstadt.

After finishing the day's business, Wu Ye planned to go to the dock market to buy food and then go back to cook, but he met Kong and Paimon.

"Wu Ye!" Paimeng shouted from afar.

"Paimon, you still have time, why don't you come buy groceries too."

"Yes, I have nothing to do now. I have completed all the large and small commissions in Liyue. Now I just wait for Beidou's Southern Cross fleet to return to Liyue, and then Paimon and I will follow her ship to Daozuma. ." Sora replied with a grin.

"Then I guess we have to wait until after the new year, because Beidou is also from Liyue, so she will definitely stay in Liyue Port to celebrate the Hai Lantern Festival."

"Hmm, Wu Ye, you guessed it right. Traveler and I are planning to celebrate the Lantern Festival in Liyue Port. We will celebrate the festival together then." Paimeng rubbed his little hands and looked at Wu Ye expectantly.

"Okay, when you come to Taohua Lane, I will cook for you and make some special dishes that I secretly learned from Fontaine." Wu Ye smiled.

"Okay! Let's make an agreement then. By the way, Wu Ye, I didn't have time to ask you about your travel experience in Fontaine yesterday. Both the traveler and I wanted to know if you had heard any news about Yingying there. .”

"Ying?" Wu Ye found that the eyes looking at him were full of hope, while Paimon blinked his big eyes at him.

"No, I haven't heard any news about her in Fontaine. Well, so you are going to Dao Wife after the new year to look for her, right?"

"Yes, I must find her." Kong's eyes dimmed, and his whole body was dejected.

"Wu Ye, I have something to tell you." Paimon said softly, motioning for Wu Ye to follow her to the other side and leave Kong alone for a while.

"Little Paimon, what's wrong?" Wu Ye asked.

"This is for you. Hush! This is the pocket money that I have saved for a long time. You must not tell the travelers." Paimeng took out a large silver check from the sole of his shoe. The amount was exactly the amount that Paimeng borrowed from Wu Ye. Millions of molas.

"Oh! Did you really save it yourself? Or did you secretly take the empty ones..."

Paimeng confidently put his hands on his hips, "I didn't! Zhongli gave it to me!"

Wu Ye suddenly became interested and asked curiously: "My father-in-law gave it to you? Why did he give it to you? Did you help him a lot?"

"I'm not helping him, I'm helping you."

"Help me?" Wu Ye was startled, "So when I escaped from trial on a wooden horse, you were the god who helped me?"

"Ahem, I never said that. Anyway, I will pay you back your money."

"Okay," Wu Ye took the banknote with a smile, then thought of something and asked, "I heard from Kong last night that you suddenly fainted one day, was it also because of me?"

"What do you think?" Pamon crossed his arms and hummed.

"Then if I land on Sky Island now, will it affect you?"

"Ah? Wu Ye, you can't do this!" Paimeng panicked for a moment.

"That seems to have an impact, but little Paimon, you don't have to worry, because I can be the maintainer or the creator..."

"Wu Ye, Paimon, what are you talking about?" After regaining his energy, Kong found Wu Ye and Paimon in the corner.

"I didn't say anything," Wu Ye smiled faintly, "By the way, if you find your partner one day, will you continue to travel to Teyvat Continent?"
