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

Based on Fang Xun's experience traveling all over the country over the years, when two people are in love, if the woman wants her boyfriend to do something with her, he should never refuse directly.

Even if you don't want to go at the time, you can't show it.

Because women are emotional creatures, what they value is not right or wrong, but the corresponding emotional value.

For example, Lei Dian really wanted to go to Qiaoying Manor to pick tea leaves. Although Fang Xun was extremely unwilling, he showed that he was happy and enthusiastic.

Emotional value is very important!

Many people easily overlook this point when dating, which can affect the development of the relationship.

Fang Xun understood this principle well and had always put it into practice.

The problem now is, after he agrees to Raiden's request, how can he delay the two sisters from going to Liyue?

Fang Xun appeared calm on the surface, but his mind was racing as he pondered how to solve the problem.

“I’ve heard from Shenzi before that she is also very interested in Qiaoyingzhuang’s tea.”

"How about this? When Shenzi is free, let's go to Qiaoying Manor together as a group, okay?"

Fang Xun subtly shifted the focus of the conflict to the Eightfold Divine Child.

This doesn't mean he didn't want to take the Raiden sisters to Liyue, but rather that he wanted to wait for Yae no Miko to come along.

As for Yae no Miko, she has no time to go out recently. The various trivial matters at Narukami Shrine and Yae-do Hall have left her no time for travel.

Fang Xun's clever substitution silently prevented a chaotic scene from unfolding!

“I think it’s okay.” At this moment, Lei Yingdian nodded slightly.

"Shinko always complains that we don't take her with us when we go out to play. If we don't invite her to Qiaoying Manor this time, she'll probably complain about us again."

At this moment, Fang Xun really wanted to give Lei's movie a thumbs up.

As expected of my precious film!

They always play an unexpected role in crucial moments, helping to get things out of trouble.

Such a virtuous wife is hard to find even if you searched the whole world with a lantern.

Raiden stroked his chin and nodded thoughtfully: "What you all say makes sense."

"In that case, let's wait until Shenzi returns so we can sit down and discuss the matter of picking tea at Qiaoying Manor."

"Agreed." Fang Xun raised both hands in agreement.

As the three chatted, a commotion came from outside. It must be Yae no Miko returning with a large group of people.

Narukami Taisha Shrine is indeed large in scale, but most of the buildings are very similar, and there are only a few attractions worth seeing.

The sacred cherry tree, the shrine, the Kagura Hall...

It doesn't take much time to see everything.

Although Yae no Miko wanted to create a separate space for Fang Xun and the Raiden sisters, she had no choice but to return to the tea room with the Paimon Traveler and the little ones.

As they approached the tea room, Yae no Miko made as much noise as possible, her purpose being to let the three people inside know that someone was coming.

Although Yae no Miko is usually cunning and full of wicked humor, she is still very thoughtful.

"We're back. How was your chat?" Yae no Miko asked with a smile as she sat down.

"Not bad. We were just saying we'd go to Qiaoying Manor to pick tea leaves when you have time." Lei Dianzhen picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for everyone.

"Going to Qiaoyingzhuang to pick tea? I was just planning..."

Yae no Miko immediately became interested. She was just about to say that she was planning to skip work and go on a trip when she suddenly felt Fang Xun, who was sitting next to her, gently touch her calf.

Yae no Miko paused for a moment, then said, "I'm planning to spend this time repairing Narukami Taisha, so I might not be able to go out for a while."

Although she didn't know what had happened, she could understand Fang Xun's meaning. After all, she had locked Fang Xun in a dark room to write his manuscript before, so she knew Fang Xun's words and actions very well.

It could be said that Fang Xun could guess what the Eightfold Divine Child wanted to say with just a glance.

Right now, it's clear that Fang Xun doesn't want her to agree to Lei Dian's promise to visit Yingzhuang.

"Oh, okay then. We'll just have to wait until you're done with this busy period before we head to Qiaoying Manor together."

Raiden Shin nodded slightly; she had no doubt about Yae no Miko's words.

"Really, we have to go," Lei Yingdian reminded him.

Because there were still matters waiting for them to attend to at the castle tower, they couldn't leave for too long.

After dealing with the matters at the Myoun Shrine, there were still many things waiting for them to handle.

Although Lei Dianzhen was somewhat reluctant, he still stood up and said, "Mr. Fang Xun, please excuse us for now. We will come to meet you as soon as we have finished dealing with this matter."

After that, the Raiden sisters left Narukami Taisha.

Once the two had completely left, Yae no Miko rested her chin on her hand, looking at Fang Xun beside her with great interest.

"Mr. Fang Xun, is there something you want to say to me?"

Fang Xun did not answer Yae no Miko's question, but instead looked at the little maids in the tea room.

"Would you like some dessert? Narukami Shrine has the freshest cherry blossom hydrangeas, and the tricolor dumplings they make are delicious."

"Dessert? Three-colored dumplings? I want to eat them!" Paimon's eyes lit up when he heard there was something to eat, and he was overjoyed.

Knowing that Fang Xun was intentionally creating a space for them to be alone, Yae no Miko smiled and said, "Go find A-Xing, she will prepare desserts for you."

Fang Xun also said to the little ones beside him, "You guys should come along too. We can't let Paimon finish the dessert all by himself."

"Okay, Brother Fang Xun, wait here for a moment, let's go get the desserts!" Ningguang and the other children went out with Paimon.

Once only Fang Xun and Yae no Miko remained in the tea room, Fang Xun, no longer relaxed, solemnly said, "Miko, I only have one month left."

"To be precise, it's twenty-nine days."

Chapter 526 She might just draw her sword and kill you.

"What...did you just say? What twenty-nine days?" Yae no Miko was slightly stunned, wondering if she had misheard.

This was the first time she had seen Fang Xun with such a serious expression, to the point that his tone of voice carried a sense of farewell.

It was just a light and casual sentence, yet it carried such sadness and weight.

Fang Xun took a deep breath and said, word by word, "I will be heading to the snow mountain alone in twenty-nine days. I don't know exactly how long I will be gone, but it may be more than ten years."

Fang Xun revealed the secret of his departure only to Yae no Kamiko.

The reason is simple: Yae no Miko is a very good listener, and currently only she knows about the relationship between Fang Xun, Gan Yu, and the Thunder Sisters.

As a middleman, Yae no Kamiko can effectively navigate between these various forces and play a role in maintaining a balance.

"Why would you go to the snow mountain for such a long time?" Yae no Miko asked, puzzled.

"Because my appearance changed the course of Teyvat."

Soon, Fang Xun relayed the words of the Heavenly Ruler to the Eightfold Divine Child.

He needs to enter a gate deep within the snow-capped mountains to mend the rules and order of the continent of Teyvat.

Yae no Miko gradually understood the cause and effect of the matter, and also learned that Fang Xun had been gone for ten years.

Ten years is but a blink of an eye for immortal beings like Yae no Kami, Gan Yu, or the Raiden Sisters.

Time seems to have stood still for them; even after thousands of years, their features remain unchanged, and their appearance remains the same.

But for Ningguang and those other children, how many decades does one have in a lifetime? They can count them on one hand.

Moreover, the next ten years are a crucial period for them to transition from childhood to adulthood.

Fang Xun did not want to be absent from these children's growth process.

If you can't always be by my side, at least you should feel involved.

"Divine Child, I hope you can help me."

"what do you want me to do?"

"Before I leave, I will prepare birthday gifts for each of Ningguang's children for the next ten years."

"When they have their birthdays each year, please deliver their birthday gifts to them on my behalf."

“No problem, I’ll help you with this.” Yae no Miko nodded without hesitation.

She knew that Fang Xun had always had a good relationship with the children in the kindergarten, and preparing birthday gifts for the children was the only thing Fang Xun could do before leaving.

Yae no Miko had any reason to refuse to help Principal Fang's kindness.

"Then there's the second thing..." Fang Xun continued.

"I've only told you about my journey deep into the snow-capped mountains so far; there's no one else who knows about it."

"In other words, after I leave, Ningguang and her group of kids, Ganyu, Ying and Zhen will definitely search for me all over the world."

"You know what I mean, right? I'm worried that Gan Yu, Zhen, and Ying might run into each other. That would be a real problem."

Yae nods in agreement: "Indeed, if the two sides, Liyue and Inazuma, were to meet, the situation would be dire."

"I don't know how Gan Yu and Zhen will react, but I'm sure that when Ying sees you again, he will definitely draw his sword and kill you without hesitation."

Fang Xun looked at the teacup in his hand thoughtfully: "If Ying were to draw her sword and attack me, perhaps the situation wouldn't be so bad. I'm afraid she'll lock herself away in her Pure Land and completely refuse to see me."

"You've already considered the worst-case scenario?" Yae no Miko was somewhat surprised.

"Of course, when I can't sleep at night, I lie in bed staring at the ceiling and anticipating all the possibilities."

"Have you thought of a solution to this problem?" Yae no Miko asked again.

"No." Fang Xun shook his head.

"So we must stop them from meeting, and I need your help."

"Divine Child, do you have any good ideas?"

The Ironclad 2.0 version is here! Has everyone cashed out their gold yet?

The author managed to secure the Black Swan event with a small safety net; let's see if they can make up for it soon.

If it doesn't come out yet, then wait for Firefly. Firefly's wife is too pitiful.
