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

Fang Xun raised an eyebrow instinctively upon hearing this, somewhat surprised.

This voice sounds familiar; it's like we often talk in the game.

He looked up.

The hotel owner was an elegant woman wearing a light purple dress, with her ponytail cascading over her shoulders.

The woman looked very mature and charming.

Her eyes were captivating and alluring, their gaze sparkling.

Oriole!

Fang Xun recognized Ying'er at a glance!

Chapter 8 The Auspicious Beast, the Celestial Qilin, Guards a Prosperous and Peaceful Era

As everyone knows, Ying'er is known as the "Queen of Liyue Cars".

That oriole-drawn carriage, when it's driven, I'm afraid the wheels could run over your face.

However, Fang Xun felt something was strange.

That is, when playing the game, Ying'er seemed very young, still a young girl.

The current timeline is twenty years ahead of the game; Ying'er should be just a little girl at most.

What's going on here?

"Ying'er? This guest, it seems you know my daughter?"

At this moment, the hotel owner spoke up.

daughter?

Fang Xun understood quickly upon hearing this.

The woman in front of me, who looks remarkably like Ying'er, is Ying'er's mother.

Are these two, mother and daughter, cut from the same mold?

If the boss hadn't spoken up, Fang Xun would have thought this was Ying'er.

Noticing the landlady's suspicious gaze, Fang Xun could only nod and make up a story in order not to expose himself: "Yes, I know Ying'er, and we've even become friends."

The proprietress looked as if she had just realized something: "So you're the big brother Ying'er always talked about."

"So it was you who taught my little oriole those things,"

"They said to peel the flower buds gently, and not to hold the mortar and pestle too tightly, etc..."

Fang Xun: "???"

"No, I didn't, it's impossible!"

Fang Xun was truly on the verge of tears.

He learned all of these things from Ying'er in the game.

Ying'er is the true master; how dare Fang Xun presume to teach her his skills?

Fang Xun will not take the blame for this.

The boss in front of me covered his mouth and chuckled, looking like he had just pulled off a prank.

"Okay, I was just kidding you. I made all that up. Don't be so nervous."

"Young people should live a more relaxed life and not always be tense, as that will harm their health."

"You should relax when it's time to relax, you know that, little brother?"

Fang Xun: "???"

So Ying'er's driving skills were learned from your father!

"Alright, so you're here to stay at a hotel, right?"

"Since you're Ying'er's friend, I'll give you a discount. Five thousand Mora a night will do."

Five thousand Mora isn't expensive for a place to stay in Liyue.

After all, a single Mora meat costs six hundred Mora.

Moreover, the hotel's decor looks quite nice.

Who could resist a nicely decorated hotel where the owner is a seasoned pro?

However, we encountered a little trouble during the registration process.

"Little brother, judging from your attire, you must be from out of town, right?"

“Recently, a group of treasure hunters came to Liyue, so the checks are very strict. Your information needs to be registered.”

"Where are you from? Do you have any proof of your identity?"

When Fang Xun heard the landlady ask this question, he didn't know how to answer for a moment.

He's a time traveler, so where can I find anything to prove his identity?

However, if one cannot answer the question, it will only make them seem more suspicious.

Just as Fang Xun was about to make up a lie on the spot,

A soft, gentle voice came from behind: "No need to investigate anymore. We've received word that the group of treasure hunters has already escaped from Liyue."

"Starting today, the cumbersome registration process will be eliminated, and everything will be simplified."

Fang Xun turned his head and realized that he also knew the person who was speaking.

With two ram's horns atop his blue hair, he looked somewhat playful and cute.

That delicate, pretty face exuded gentleness and poise.

Her eyes were clear as water, as if nothing in the world could taint that purity.

What's most eye-catching is the girl's long, shapely legs, encased in black stockings, which are flawless.

Liyue's Top Secretary!

Ganyu!

Fang Xun was somewhat surprised.

I never expected to meet Gan Yu's wife so soon!

With coconut milk and adorable little coconut sheep, who wouldn't love it?

At this moment, the proprietress nodded and said with a smile, "So it's Lord Gan Yu who has arrived."

"I understand, thank you for delivering the message."

"However, speaking of which, we shouldn't have Lord Gan Yu come to deliver the message in person. It would have been better to have Qian Yanjun come and say something."

"After all, Lord Ganyu is so busy on weekdays. Liyue has been able to stabilize thanks to Lord Ganyu over the years."

It's clear that the proprietress treats Gan Yu with great respect.

After all, Gan Yu has always protected the kingdom of Liyue.

It wasn't just the proprietress; in fact, most residents of Liyue were very warm and polite to Gan Yu.

Because Gan Yu, the first secretary, was just too dedicated and responsible.

Because of her, Liyue has been able to prosper so much.

"No, there's no need to be so polite." Hearing the proprietress's praise, Gan Yu's pretty face flushed slightly with embarrassment and fluster.

She doesn't feel comfortable in such social situations; she prefers to be busy at work rather than talking to people.

"I... I was on my way to investigate some clues and just happened to be passing by, so I thought I'd let you know."

"Qianyan Army works very hard every day. I'm just doing what I can."

As she spoke, Gan Yu couldn't help but glance at Fang Xun.

She was somewhat curious about this strangely dressed stranger.

However, Gan Yu discovered that Fang Xun was also sizing her up.

Gan Yu didn't meet Fang Xun's gaze. She was somewhat flustered and at a loss, so she lowered her head.

"Um, I have to go now, I still have a lot of things to take care of."

Gan Yu blushed, and after saying that, she hurriedly strode away with her long legs.

"Lord Gan Yu is always so busy," the proprietress couldn't help but sigh.

She paused, looked at Fang Xun and said, "Little brother, since Lady Gan Yu said that those cumbersome regulations have been abolished, you can go upstairs to rest now."

Chapter 9 Wouldn't it be great to have poor Ningguang as her secretary?

the next morning,

Golden sunlight streamed in through the window, and a cool breeze caused the hotel curtains to flutter.

If this were before the time travel, Fang Xun would still be sound asleep in bed at this point in time.

However today

But he broke with his usual routine and got up very early.

Fang Xun and Xiao Ningguang made a promise last night that they would go shopping in Liyue together today.

Therefore, Fang Xun must arrive at the location before the agreed time.

The two agreed to meet at the riverside where they had grilled fish the previous night.

Although Fang Xun wasn't very familiar with Liyue, fortunately, his memory was quite good.

So they arrived at the agreed location without much effort.

Fang Xun had just arrived at the riverbank when he saw Xiao Ningguang's figure.

The little girl was sitting quietly by the wooden bridge.
