Barbara sat on a seat not far from the room where they were talking. She looked over there from time to time, feeling the urge to go in.

But a good education made her stop the urge, although she wanted to hear what they were talking about.

Not long after, Simon opened the door and came outside, with Yi Si following behind him.

Simon came to the door with a serious look on his face, stretched out his hand, and said again

"This matter will trouble Mr. Yisi. Mond will be grateful to Mr. Yisi if it succeeds."

Yi Si also reached out and held Simon's hand, and replied seriously

"Of course, since I accepted the commission, I will definitely complete it perfectly."

"With your words, I feel relieved. In this case, I will go and prepare."

Seeing Simon leaving, Barbara quickly stepped forward and came to Yi Si's side, following Yi Si's eyes as she looked at the back of her father as he left.

"Did Father tell you something? Why do you look so unhappy?"

Barbara was very worried about what she would do if her father and Yi Si said something serious and their relationship got bad.

Yi Si smiled, subconsciously rubbed Barbara's head and said

"There's nothing to be unhappy about. There's work to do, and there's Morana, so it's too late for me to be happy. By the way, we haven't seen each other for so long, and I have a lot of interesting things. Let's go to the banquet and let's chat slowly."

Watching Yi Si walking towards the banquet, Barbara's eyes were a little confused, and she felt an inexplicable palpitation in her heart. Even her breathing was a little stagnant, but her sweetheart's invitation made her calm down, and she followed him with a warm smile again. Behind Yisi

Maybe I'm too tired during this period of time

Yi Si looked at the people around him in silence, thinking about what just happened

This commission was very troublesome. The knights took out all the cards and promised to help Yisi find the cards in the future. This was just the basic reward, and there were a lot of benefits later.

But it’s just right, it’s not like I can’t pick it up

Just as I thought before, so what if I knew they had cards? You don't need to take the initiative, you can't take the initiative. Once you ask for these cards, it means that you owe the Knights a favor. Many things you do in the future will have to take Mond's thoughts into consideration, and you may not be able to get them all back.

You can't get back all the cards with one commission, but you have to take on more tasks.

But what they asked for was different. Not only could they get it back in one go, but the Knights also owed themselves a favor. Don't think that getting the reward meant you were clear of both sides. These were two different things.

For example, if the Knights want to block themselves, are they really not afraid of others laughing at them if they tell it?

Someone else, Yi Si, helped you like this, Mond, and this is how you, Mond, repaid Yi Si? Even if you explain that the reward was an ordinary transaction, so what? Who will listen? Right

Just like Wagner, why was he invited to the banquet by Diluc even though he helped others blacksmith and accepted Mora? It was an equal deal.

Sometimes when someone asks you to do something, even if you get paid, you will still be owed more or less a small favor. This is why Yisi didn't rush to ask them for the card at all.

Everything has already been marked with chips, and you can only act if you give yourself the opportunity to rewrite the chips.

The only disadvantage is that you don’t know how difficult it is to do what others ask you to do, and you have to do it yourself.

very annoying

For example, this matter is actually a matter of Mondstadt's diplomatic nature. It is difficult for Mondstadt officials to come forward. As the owner of Dawn Winery, Diluc cannot come forward in a sense. After all, he also represents Mondstadt.

Once he takes action, it will be a serious diplomatic incident, but Diluc still has some room for maneuver, so they can act together.

But Yisi is different.

He is not from Teyvat

In other words, there is flexible nationality. You can say he is from Mondstadt, you can say he is from Liyue, you can say he is from Fontaine. Why do you say that?

The first time he appeared was in Mondstadt, so he can be said to be from Mondstadt. Mondstadt may or may not recognize it.

Yi Si is very famous in Liyue and has many acquaintances. Liyue can also recognize Yi Si as a Liyue person or consider him as a foreign merchant.

Fontaine is even more direct. You can say whatever you want, but I will say that I even have a law in Fontaine specifically written for me. You have to go to the east to check whether it is true or not, even if it turns out to be a lie in the end. There's nothing the dragon can do about it. I'm from Fontaine. Just tell me if that law was written by me. I cut meat. I'm from Fontaine.

Therefore, Yisi, who has flexible nationality, is the main person in this operation

Even if something happens, Mondstadt can still deal with Zhidong diplomatically.

Yi Si picked up a glass of wine and a drink on the table, handed the drink to Barbara, and Barbara snorted and said

"I don't drink. I'm an adult and can drink."

"Haha, you don't like wine, it doesn't taste good."

Barbara put down her drink and picked up a glass of fruit wine and said

"How will you know if you don't try?"

Yi Si stopped trying to dissuade him and drank the wine together with Barbara.

Not long after Barbara finished drinking, a blush appeared on her face.

"Stop drinking. You don't know how to drink. If you force yourself to drink, you will be embarrassed at the banquet. You will probably be deceived by a noble boy."

Barbara put down her wine glass, picked up a drink and said harshly

"I'm just trying it, it's not as good as my spicy drink."

Yi Si smiled and said nothing. Barbara seemed to have remembered something, raised her hand and said

"Yisi, look, do my clothes look good?"

......

The two came to a slightly quieter place. Barbara confided in her emotions during this period and told the interesting things she had encountered. Yi Si had already put down his wine glass and drank the special drink brought by the maid.

It's a drink specially requested by Diluc for sobering up.

By the way, I echo a few words from time to time.

As the guests became quiet, the most ‘heavyweight’ guest of the banquet also arrived.

Diluc slowly walked down from the second floor. As the owner of Chenxi Winery, Mr. Diluc's temperament directly attracted everyone's attention.

"Guests and friends, welcome to my banquet. For today's gathering, I have specially prepared fine wine that my father has collected for twenty-nine years. I believe that both the noble and elegant guests of the Chamber of Commerce and the diligent and humble knights of the West Wind can enjoy it. Have a nice night.”

As Diluc arrived, Yi Si turned to Barbara and said

"You go and play by yourself first. When the time comes, I have to prepare. I'll be back later."

Barbara nodded and left Yi Si's side sensibly.

Yi Si stood up, straightened his clothes, and disappeared into the banquet.

The banquet continued, and with the arrival of Diluc, the atmosphere reached its highest point

At this time, a man with a wretched appearance and a fat head came to Diluc with a man wearing a mask and said

"I haven't seen you for a long time, Master Diluc. What a wonderful dinner."

Diluc looked at the two of them with a dull expression. The mask he was wearing had a piece missing from the right corner of his mouth. He could see the man's arrogant smile and saw the man say

"I have something to ask your bishop. Bring him to see me."

Even though Diluc knew his identity, he still had to ask.

"This... distinguished guest whom I have never met is..."

The wretched man explained

"I was negligent. Young master, let me formally introduce you to my master, [Doctor]."
