Fang Xun hummed in agreement: "It's probably because there are many children in my family. Influenced by them, I don't like dull environments."

Lisa nodded: "Speaking of those little ones, why didn't you bring them to tonight's banquet? Besides the wine, there's also plenty of delicious food tonight."

"Many knights brought their families along, and several groups of children came."

Lisa paused for a moment, then continued, "Although I've only met your children once, I sometimes miss them. They're such adorable little kids."

Fang Xun shook his head upon hearing this: "Forget it, they'll probably cause trouble again if they come over. It's better to let them stay at home."

"I'm just a little worried that the Divine Child might secretly play pranks on the little ones while I'm not around."

"Yae no Miko? You mean that pink-haired older sister?"

Lisa thought for a moment; she remembered Yae no Miko.

Then, Lisa asked, "Sweetie, does Yae no Miko often tease you?"

"Call me 'Master' and I'll protect you from now on, okay?"

"Hmm? What's with that confused look on your face? Is it a bad deal to be my apprentice? I have so much more to teach you!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Xun shook his head repeatedly: "No way, you don't even look as old as me, I can't accept a master who is younger than me."

Lisa asked, "Am I not old?"

Fang Xun didn't say anything, knowing that Lisa was driving again.

The two continued walking aimlessly, the wind whistling in their ears.

It probably confirms the saying, "Suddenly it's evening in the human world, and autumn has already arrived in the mountains and rivers."

The evening breeze was slightly chilly, and with the recent rain, the temperature was damp and cold.

A cold wind blew in her face, and the maid who was sweeping the floor shrank her neck, thinking that she should change into warmer clothes tomorrow.

Lisa wasn't in much better shape; she was wearing a backless dress that revealed large expanses of smooth skin.

The cold wind was blowing on my body, and there was almost nothing to keep warm.

Lisa also felt a bit cold, but she didn't show it.

No matter what, she's a witch, how could she possibly be afraid of the cold?

That would damage the image of a witch.

Fang Xun didn't say anything, but took off his coat and put it on Lisa's back.

If it were Gan Yu, this gesture would make her feel very happy.

But Lisa, instead, first thanked her and then asked, "Sweetie, how many girls have you used this trick on?"

Fang Xun was taken aback; he hadn't expected Lisa to be so skilled.

No wonder she can handle so many suitors with such ease.

"If I said you were the first, would you believe me?"

Lisa didn't answer, but instead asked, "Do you think I believe it?"

"Actually, I don't really care how many girls you've used this tactic on. The clothes are very warm, thank you."

Lisa paused for a moment, then asked, "You called me out alone, surely it wasn't just for a walk?"

"Alright, let's get down to business."

“There is indeed something I want to ask you,” Fang Xun smiled, no longer hiding it, after Lisa saw through his thoughts.

He asked Lisa to go for a walk, partly to pass the time, but more so because he wanted something from her.

"I defeated the dragon Ursa, and when it perished, this thing was left behind."

When the mention of the dragon Usa, a hint of surprise flashed in Lisa's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

As he spoke, Fang Xun pulled a round, jewel-like object from his pocket.

At that time, the demon dragon Usa was blown to smithereens, but this jewel was intact, and Fang Xun was convinced that this thing was extraordinary.

"I suspect this thing holds some kind of secret, but I can't crack it on my own, so I need your help."

Lisa nodded: "Okay, if it's my little cutie's request, I can't refuse."

"I've agreed to do this favor."

"Let's make it clear first, this help isn't free; there are conditions."

"What are the conditions?"

"Come find me at the library, and you'll see."

...

Sorry I'm late. Everyone, get some rest. Goodnight.

Chapter 363 The local knights are so impolite.

Because of the drop in temperature, Fang Xun and Lisa didn't linger outside and returned to the winery.

The atmosphere in the venue was as relaxed and cheerful as before, but Fang Xun noticed some subtle changes.

For example, some young Knights of Favonius,

Although they were chatting and laughing with their companions, their expressions were nonchalant.

More often than not, the knights focused their attention on Fang Xun, their eyes filled with envy and jealousy.

Fang Xun guessed that those people were probably all Lisa's suitors.

Because he chatted and laughed with Lisa and went out together, he attracted a lot of hatred.

It is certain that those suitors have reached a consensus to regard Fang Xun as a rival in love.

It seems... tonight's banquet will not be peaceful.

Fang Xun wondered if he should convince all his suitors at once?

Just as Fang was pondering, a bard dressed in green walked up to him.

Wendy pleaded pitifully, "Mr. Fang Xun, you have to help me..."

Wendy quickly recounted what had happened.

The owner of Dawn Winery, Cripps, allows all guests unlimited drinks, except for Wendy.

It wasn't that Kripps was deliberately targeting Wendy.

However, Kripps always felt that Wendy, being a young adult, was still developing and shouldn't drink too much.

So he restricted Wendy's drinking; she could only drink two bottles of dandelion liqueur, and after that, she had to go home to rest.

These words made Wendy feel very melancholy.

He deliberately didn't drink much today, saving his stomach for the trip to Dawn Winery.

I thought I'd be drinking until I dropped, but all I ended up drinking were two bottles of dandelion wine.

Watching everyone drink heartily, Wendy felt unbearably envious.

Of course, Wendy's discomfort only lasted for a very brief moment.

Soon, he joined the others in drinking heartily.

Wendy has a very optimistic attitude.

For him, even if there's a huge mess to clean up tomorrow, he'll still have a happy day.

Wendy is the same way when it comes to drinking; she drinks first and then thinks about other things.

Even if he only had two bottles of dandelion wine, once they were gone, that would be it.

But before that, let's have a good drink!

Of course, for a drunken poet like Wendy, two bottles of dandelion liqueur were not enough; he wanted to drink more.

With no other option, Wendy could only hold two empty bottles and turn to Fang for help.

"Mr. Fang Xun, you mustn't drink too much tonight,"

"Otherwise, when you go back, those girls will definitely start talking about you again."

"So, let me help you share the burden!"

Fang Xun glanced at Wendy; the old man's scheme was so elaborate that even the people of Mondstadt could hear it.

He clearly wanted to drink, but somehow he managed to drag Ningguang and the others into it.

"You're probably the only one in all of Mondstadt who can talk about freeloading so righteously, Wendy."

Wendy scratched her head: "Hey, with a relationship like ours, how can you call it freeloading? It's more like helping each other out!"

Fang Xun was used to Wendy spouting nonsense with a straight face.

He called the waiter to bring two bottles of dandelion liqueur, which he had requested for Wendy.

Just as Fang Xun was about to hand the wine to Wendy, Kripps strode over and told everyone to eat and drink well.

Fang Xun paused what he was doing, intending to give the dandelion wine to Wendy after Kripps left.

However, Wendy doesn't seem to be able to wait that long.

He winked at Fang Xun and said in a low voice, "Mr. Fang Xun, you just need to open the bottle cap, and leave the rest to me."

Fang Xun didn't know what Wendy was going to do, but he did as Wendy said.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Xun felt the wine bottle in his hand rapidly becoming lighter.

He picked up the bottle to check and found that the wine inside was decreasing at a visible rate.

Only after the drinks were finished did Wendy say with a satisfied look, "Thank you for nature's bounty~"

Good heavens! Fang Xun exclaimed, "Good heavens!"

Fang Xun had never seen Wendy use her divine power before. The only time he saw Wendy use her divine power was when she drank from a distance.

As expected of you, you drunken poet!

Just as Fang Xun was feeling sentimental, five Knights of Favonius walked straight over, each holding a bottle of wine.
