Audrin lowered her head and wiped the table, not noticing the change in Diluc's expression.

"Yeah, I'm not from Mondstadt. I can't stay in Mondstadt forever."

"That's right." After Diluc said this, he remained silent and didn't speak again.

"Diluc's favorability is +10, Diluc's favorability is 36, and a total of 327 favorability points have been collected."

Audrin, who was concentrating on her work, saw the pop-up favorability display and immediately raised her head to look at Diluc.

Wow, no, this guy. Are you so happy to hear the news that she is leaving?

All of a sudden, I generously added ten points.

Although she gained favorability points, Audrin had a subtle feeling of being disliked.

Humph, she doesn’t want to do it yet.

Goodbye, bye, the next one will be better.

"What are you doing? Look at me suddenly." Diluc asked calmly, and then seemed to have received some hint: "Forget it, I will pay you double your salary today."

Well, that's not actually the reason.

But there was no need to explain. Audrey lowered her head to clean the rag happily.

It’s not like he can’t work as a bartender for two more days.

It's definitely not because Boss Diluc is very generous.

The door of the tavern was suddenly pushed open, and Qin came to the tavern after finishing her work.

"Long time no see, Senior Diluc."

"Good evening, Miss Audrey."

Jean said hello first.

"Good evening, Captain Qin, would you like something to drink?" Audrey, who was busy, gave Qin a formulaic professional smile.

"As a non-alcoholic beverage, just apple stuffing would be good," Qin said.

Qin had received Diluc's message through special channels before, and came to the tavern after finishing the work at hand.

As soon as I entered, I felt a strange atmosphere.

There is nothing wrong with Miss Audlin, but the strange feeling comes from Boss Diluc.

Qin glanced at Diluc who was meditating for several times, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Senior Diluc, senior Diluc?"

Diluc suddenly regained his focus and said hello to Qin in front of him: "Qin, you are here..."

"What are you thinking about, Senior Diluc?" Qin was a little surprised. What happened? How could the always steady and reliable senior Diluc become distracted like this?

Diluc had nothing to hide from Qin: "I'm thinking about where would be a better location to open 'Angel's Gift' branches in Liyue, Daozhi, Xumi, and Fontaine."

"Oh, you are so interested in the wine business all of a sudden. Is Senior Diluc finally going to attack the wine production of other countries? He is really motivated."

Qin thought for a moment: "But I heard that Liyue prefers tea. Daoqi is locking down the country, and it may be difficult for foreign industries to enter. Xumi and Fontaine are both good, but some are too far away. The cost of the journey in between I’m afraid it’s an astronomical figure, and the gain outweighs the loss.”

Diluc had already analyzed these pros and cons before Qin, and found that the cons outweighed the pros, but he was still thinking about how to carry out...

Oh, I really lost my head. After staying in the tavern for a long time, the smell of alcohol in it has made your mind no longer clear?

Diluc looked at the moonlight outside the window: "Ying and the bard should be coming soon. I'll go take a look." After that, he left the tavern.

Qin looked at Diluc's back as he left the tavern, and then took Audrin's apple juice: "Senior Diluc, why does he feel weird?"

Audrey learned the lesson now: "I don't say anything to my boss during working hours."

Qin smiled and shook her head: "Miss Audrey, you are too cautious."

"Harm, we have learned from the past, we have to take precautions." Audrey sighed sadly, it was all Paimon's fault...

Soon after, Diluc took Ying and Wendy into the tavern.

"Good evening Audrey, eh, Captain Qin is here too!" Paimon shouted in surprise.

Qin turned her eyes and felt helpless: "Now I am not Qin as the group leader, but Qin who is meeting you in a private capacity."

"That's it." Diluc said.

Then, after a few people finalized their plan to seize the Sky Piano from the Fools, they left.

Except for Audrin and Wendy, who had no fighting ability, they were waiting for news in the tavern.

"Hey, Audrey, we're the only two left now." Wendy stared at Audrey pitifully: "Just take this moment to make me a delicious dandelion bar."

"Hey, I will be fined for this..." Audrin was speechless. Isn't this an abuse of power?

Wendy persuaded again: "Oh, it's just one drink, and Boss Diluc won't find out. Moreover, the money you make Boss Diluc lose for a glass of wine will soon be equivalent to the amount of money you make for a glass of wine yourself. "

Damn, that makes sense.

Indeed, watching her boss lose money made her happier than Audrin making money herself.

Audlin immediately lost any hesitation: "Okay, dandelion wine, wait."

Wendy, who successfully used the 'Wind God's Fudge' skill, quietly gestured "yeah" where Audrey couldn't see her.

Hey, the plan works.

"Please use your dandelion wine slowly." After mixing the dandelion wine, Audrey pushed it to Wendy.

Wendy eagerly took a sip, and after tasting the refreshing and delicious dandelion wine, she sighed with satisfaction: "Huh, this is the meaning of living."

"Then the meaning of your life is quite...simple." Thinking of Wendy Fengshen's identity, Audrey finally did not say any more unpleasant words.

"Oh my god, how can you say that?" A little drunkenness appeared on Wendy's face: "The meaning of life is the same as the wind. It is free and unrestrained. No one can control the wind, and no one can control anyone else's life."

"The meaning of life is given by yourself. You can live however you want. What does other people's opinions mean?"

"It's hard to not care about other people's eyes." Audrey glanced at the blush on Wendy's face: "You've only had one drink and you're already drunk?"

"I'm not drunk, I just blush easily after drinking." Wendy blushed, but her emerald green eyes were exceptionally bright and sparkling, looking quite bright under the dim orange light.

"It may be difficult to not care about other people's eyes in other places, but in Mondstadt, there is no such concern at all. After all, Mondstadt is a free country."

"Barbatos, the wind god, will protect every free soul, including you, Audrey. Feel free to be yourself." Wendy said, closing her emerald green eyes.

It seemed like he was really drunk.

Will you protect every free soul...including yourself?

Audrey had to admit that her heart was touched when she heard these words. She had a deeper sense of belonging to this world because of Wendy's words.

"Really? Then... we'll see."
