Mandrill volunteered to go home with me after traveling through Genshin Impact

Since Shuangxue escaped and was brought back, people have never seen her again, and rumors suddenly spread.

Everyone is talking about where the missing girl went?

This incident eventually reached Liyue Port. At first, almost no one believed it. Everyone thought Mandrill would not do this.

Until someone took out a photo of Mandrill holding Shuangxue, and it was extremely clear, and everyone had to doubt the authenticity of the rumors.

Zhong Li naturally also learned about this. He put down his teacup and sighed helplessly, deciding to go take a look.

"Mr. Zhongli, wait for me."

Nian Xue chased after him, and this incident caused a huge uproar. Although Zhongli felt that Nian Xue was too young and deliberately hid it, Nian Xue still learned about it.

"Nian Xue? Why are you here?"

"Mr. Zhongli, let's go together? You don't have to hide it from me, I know everything. I can't see my father making such mistakes anymore. I'm going to stop him."

"...Oh, that's all."

The two of them came to Wangshu Inn together, but only Zhong Li went to look for Mandrill, while Nian Xue started searching quietly.

"Lord Zhongli, why are you here?"

Mandrill was a little nervous about Zhongli's visit, and the reason was naturally Shuangxue. If Zhongli knew about it, he didn't know how to deal with it.

"How have you been?"

"Very good..." Mandrill's voice seemed a little guilty, and he didn't know the reason for Zhongli's trip.

"I heard... the girl who disappeared recently seems to have something to do with you?"

Although he had expected it, when Zhongli asked, Mandrill was silent for a moment, hesitated, and finally told the truth.

"…Yes."

"Then where is she now?"

"..."

Mandrill was silent this time. He didn't want to lie to Zhongli, and he didn't want to let go.

"Mandrill, don't be stubborn anymore."

Although Zhongli's voice was calm, it carried an inexplicable pressure.

"But Shuangxue..."

Mandrill seemed to want to say something else, but was interrupted by Zhongli.

"Mandrill, don't you understand? Whether she is someone else or Shuangxue, no matter who she is, you shouldn't do this."

"...I just...want to protect her..."

"Then do you think, for her, this is really protection?"

Yes, is this really protection for Shuangxue? This has long gone beyond the scope of protection, but he imprisoned her out of selfish motives.

For her, this was never protection, some were just harm...

"Stop it."

Zhongli persuaded Mandrill, but Mandrill still didn’t answer.

He doesn't want to! He doesn't want to let go.

He knew the consequences from the beginning, didn't he?

But he still did it, what could be more important than keeping her?

"Sorry...Master Zhongli, I can't do this."

Mandrill said firmly, and this sentence also made Zhongli frown in a rare way.

"Do you have to be so stubborn?"

"..."

Mandrill was silent again, but this also showed his attitude, he would not let go.

During the confrontation between the two, Mandrill suddenly sensed that someone had broken into the barrier he had set up. He was about to leave, but was stopped by Zhongli.

"Lord Zhongli..."

Mandrill was very anxious at this time, but there was nothing he could do.

However, after a while, Nian Xue ran over in a panic.

"Mr. Zhongli! It's not good! That sister...she..."

However, before Nian Xue could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Mandrill.

"Zhong Nianxue!"

This was probably the only time Mandrill called her by her full name, and the only time he was mean to her. Nian Xue suddenly felt aggrieved.
