Genshin Impact: Ningguang is still a pitiful little thing, I invested in her.

"The little pink fox has become so cute in the blink of an eye."

Looking across the entire Inazuma region, only Raiden dares to praise Yae no Miko as cute.

No one else would have the guts.

As the saying goes, every creature has its counter, and Yae no Kamiko (Eightfold Divine Child) easily subdues Lei Yingdian (a popular movie character).

Raiden Shin, on the other hand, was able to control both Yae no Kamiko and Raiden.

Yae no Miko sighed helplessly, then said with a hint of resentment, "Instead of praising me for being cute, you should say that I have both beauty and wisdom. That might make me happier."

Raiden smiled and said, "I'm just telling the truth. Besides, cuteness is a kind of beauty. Don't worry about these details."

It seems like the word "cute" is unavoidable for Yae no Miko today.

To describe a mature woman like her as cute is an understatement.

Is this appropriate?

But the person who said those words was Raiden Shin, and she had no way to stop him.

"Shin, you haven't changed at all. You still bully me like before."

"If you were Yaedo's author, you would definitely be able to write light novels that readers would love."

Hearing Yae no Miko's teasing, Raiden Shin chuckled and shook his head: "I've never read light novels, so how could I possibly create them? I definitely couldn't write them."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yae no Miko placed a stack of books in front of Raiden Shin.

"Yaedo lacks everything, except light novels."

"If you're interested in light novels, you can take a look at these books. If that's not enough, I'll get you some others."

Looking at the table full of light novels, Raiden Shin picked one out and started reading it.

The novel is called Genshin Impact: Mondstadt, and it mainly tells the story of the Traveler's adventure in Mondstadt.

Looking at the cover of the light novel, Fang Xun felt a sense of familiarity.

I remember now, isn't this the novel he wrote in Liyue?

Yae no Miko initially requested to keep this interesting novel as a keepsake.

Fang Xun didn't think there was any problem and gave it to her without hesitation.

I never expected to see this novel again in the dark room.

Perhaps it was a cruel twist of fate, or perhaps there was something truly unique about it.

Among the mountain of novels, Raiden Shin picked out this one and began to read it carefully.

Fang Xun found it incredible to see Raiden carefully reading through the contents word by word.

When Fang Xun wrote this novel, he used the Liyue script.

Can Raiden Makoto, who has always lived in Inazuma, understand the text above?

Fang Xun asked with some curiosity, "Zhen, you can read Liyue's writing?"

Raiden nodded slightly and explained to Fang Xun, "I occasionally get together with Mondstadt and that guy from Liyue to discuss things or have meals and drinks."

"To communicate better, we learned each other's languages."

Lei Dian paused, his thoughts drifting into memories.

"Speaking of which, the last time we drank in Inazuma, Morax was accompanied by two immortals,"

"One of them is the Three-Eyed Five-Manifestation Immortal Xiao. He is not used to crowded places, apparently because he has karmic obstacles on him. Yes, it is called karmic obstacles."

If Lei Dian hadn't actually told him, Fang Xun wouldn't have known there was such a past event.

No wonder Xiao refused Fang Xun's invitation to visit Inazuma, citing the need to protect Liyue.

Finally, he muttered that there wasn't much to do in Inazuma.

It turns out that Xiao had visited Inazuma before.

Lei Dianzhen continued, "The other immortal was a girl, quiet and gentle, with a somewhat introverted personality. I remember her name was Gan Yu."

"In my memory, Gan Yu is quite cute. That little girl blushes easily. We get along very well and have a lot in common."

Before I left, Gan Yu invited me to visit Liyue, saying that she could arrange accommodation for me.

"I accepted Gan Yu's invitation, but I haven't had the chance to go to Liyue all these years, which is a bit of a regret."

Chapter 185 Fish and bear paws

When Lei Dian unintentionally mentioned Gan Yu, Fang Xun's mind immediately conjured up Gan Yu's image.

Because Yuehaiting was working overtime, Ganyu regretfully couldn't visit Inazuma.

I wonder how Gan Yu has been these past few days, whether she's eating well, and whether she's sleeping soundly.

With that in mind, Fang Xun decided to return to Liyue immediately after the festival ended.

But now,

Fang Xun still couldn't understand what Yae no Miko meant by "You've come at just the right time."

When Fang Xun asked what it was about, Yae no Miko simply smiled and said he would find out soon.

Fang Xun had no idea what Yae no Kamiko was up to, but he had a feeling that this cunning fox was plotting something.

After a while,

Yae no Miko looked at Raiden Shin and then asked, "Shin, what do you think of this novel?"

Raiden Shin put down the light novel he was reading and earnestly shared his opinion.

"This is my first time reading light novels, so I don't know much about them, but I think this particular book is quite interesting."

"If this novel gets a sequel, I will probably buy the book to support it."

Raiden's eyes gleamed, still savoring the story.

No wonder Ying always stays at home in her sanctuary, reading light novels all day long.

Light novels are actually quite interesting.

The story is wildly imaginative.

Lei Dian paused for a moment, then continued, "However... I don't quite understand why the author would choose a pen name like 'Six Old Men Leaving the Bell'."

What does this mean?

Raiden tilted his head, a rare look of confusion on his face.

She recognized each of the four characters, but couldn't understand them at all when they were put together.

Yae no Miko also rubbed her forehead: "I don't know what he means by choosing such a pen name. We should ask him himself."

As they spoke, Yae no Miko looked at Fang Xun and asked, "Mr. Fang Xun, why did you choose such a pen name?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Raiden showed a surprised expression.

"Hey, is Mr. Fang Xun the author of this light novel?"

"Mr. Fang Xun is truly amazing!"

"But why did you choose the pen name 'Liu Lao Li Zhong'?"

Fang Xun gave an awkward yet polite smile.

He couldn't say that the pen name was simply a way of criticizing Zhong Li.

After a moment's thought, he explained in a serious tone, "The reason I chose this pen name is mainly to express a sense of respect."

"respect?"

"Well, actually this pen name should be read from the end to the beginning: Zhongli Laoliu."

"In Liyue Harbor, there is a guest elder in the Hall of Rebirth named Zhongli, who is learned and knowledgeable."

"In my hometown, 'Lao Liu' is an honorific title that expresses respect and admiration."

"Zhongli Lao Liu" is actually a euphemism for expressing my respect for Mr. Zhongli.

"However, I can't express it too directly, as that would bother others. So I use a more tactful way to express my respect and admiration."

Fang Xun explained it this way.

Both Raiden and Yae no Miko showed expressions of sudden realization.

As expected of Mr. Fang Xun, even his pen name is so meaningful!

Lei Dian blinked his big eyes and said seriously to Fang Xun, "Then should I call you Fang Xun, the sixth brother, from now on?"

Fang Xun: ...

"It's not necessary!"

Fang Xun reached out to stop him, speaking with righteous indignation.

“Really, we’re already so familiar with each other, there’s no need to use such a respectful title, it makes us seem too formal.”

"Just call me by my name, no need to be so polite."

"Oh, okay then." Raiden nodded, seemingly understanding.

Yae no Miko also laughed and joked, "This is the first time I've seen Mr. Fang Xun with such an expression. It's really interesting."

"It's about time now, Mr. Fang Xun, we should get down to business."

Yae no Miko sat opposite Fang Xun, his cunning eyes fixed on him.

Fang Xun felt a little flustered.

“God, whenever you stare at me like that, nothing good ever happens.”

"Well, why don't you go ahead with your work, I won't bother you any longer."

Something's wrong, get out of here!

Before Fang Xun could stand up, the Eightfold Divine Child was already blocking the doorway.

She crossed her arms and said earnestly, "Damn it! Mr. Fang Xun, don't go."
