I'm in Teyvat, join the chat group.

"why?"

He said he couldn't tell you.

Pushing the blame directly onto Siegfried would reduce Kiana's hostility towards him, which is exactly what Siegfried wanted, isn't it?

"...Why should I believe you?"

"You may not believe me, but you should be able to believe your period, right?"

"Auntie? Who's that?"

"I already said it from the beginning, Siegfried sent us to help you recognize your ancestors."

Besides your father, you have another relative in this world named Theresa Apocalypse, who is your aunt.

"Theresa...where is she? Can I see her?"

Kiana wanted to meet this person, one of only two relatives mentioned by Li Xiao.

"She will probably arrive in Changkong City in a few more days. If you are willing to stay in Changkong City for a few days, you should be able to see her."

Although Theresa had arrived, he did not want Kiana to meet Theresa so soon.

With these extra few days, given Raiden Mei's appeal to Kiana, they should quickly become good friends, which will then allow Raiden Mei to enter St. Freya Academy.

"Okay, I'll come back to you in a few days, or you can come to me. You should know where I am."

After saying that, Kiana stood up and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Li Xiao patted Raiden Mei's black-stockinged thigh, who was sitting next to him.

Raiden Mei blushed slightly, but she understood what Li Xiao meant and stood up to pull Kiana back.

"Um, please wait a moment. You must be very hungry, right? If you're not in a hurry, why don't you finish eating before you go?"

Raiden Mei pointed to the KFC meal that Li Xiao had bought to tempt Kiana.

"it is good."

Kiana looked at Raiden Mei's gentle smile and, for some reason, subconsciously agreed.

Chapter Twenty-Nine: You are not allowed to slander my noble character!

"Your name is?"

Kiana was a little surprised by her own quick agreement, but at this moment she was even more curious about who this purple-haired girl who inexplicably attracted her was.

"My name is Raiden Mei, this is Bronya, and the person you were just talking to is Li Xiao. They are all very nice people, so don't worry. Please sit down and eat."

After Raiden Mei introduced herself, she also introduced Li Xiao and Bronya, whom Kiana hadn't asked about.

Kiana sat down as instructed and began to wolf down her KFC meal, as she was indeed quite hungry.

"Eat slowly and don't choke."

Raiden Mei handed Kiana a glass of water and then said to her with concern.

Kiana, who was feeling a bit thirsty, drank the entire glass of water in one gulp.

"Mmm, thank you, Mei."

Li Xiao's lips twitched. So they've already called Mei?

However, seeing that the two of them got along well, he was relieved. Sure enough, Raiden Mei was quite attractive to Kiana.

I hope the two of them get along well. This will not only make it easier for Raiden Mei to enter St. Freya, but it will also be interesting for Kiana to flirt with Raiden Mei in front of her later.

However, he did not intentionally make Raiden Mei and Kiana get along well; these were all things Raiden Mei did on her own initiative.

After all, he felt that it was better for friends to be sincere with each other, and that any scheming involved would always be off-putting.

Just like him and his best friend Wendy, they have always been sincere to each other since they met.

[You genuinely went to trick Wendy, and Wendy genuinely wants revenge, right?]

The system's complaints always come at just the right time.

'Hmph, the friendship between Wendy and me is something you can't possibly understand.'

Is it possible that Wendy doesn't consider you a close friend, but just sees you as a jerk who only torments him?

'impossible! Absolutely impossible! '

[Ding! Task issued – My Best Friend]

Please make Wendy genuinely acknowledge that you are his best friend.

[Completion Reward: Skill - Best Friend, Save Me!]

Li Xiao's face instantly darkened.

'How could this task possibly be completed? I've already screwed Wendy over like this, no matter how hard I try, he'll only ever see me as a bad friend!'

"So you knew that too? Then why were you so confident just now?"

'How could I have known you'd post this kind of task? Never mind, I'm not going to argue with you.'

He gave up communicating with this garbage system.

She glanced at Raiden Mei and Kiana, who were talking, and at Bronya, who was drinking water and silently observing the situation beside her.

He stood up and said to everyone, "Then I'll be leaving for now. I'll come back in a few days."

"Hey? Li Xiao, are you leaving again already?"

Raiden Mei said with a hint of reluctance. She had originally wanted to spend more time with Li Xiao.

Seeing how much Raiden Mei cared about Li Xiao, Kiana instantly became alert.

What's the relationship between these two? Could it be...?

"After all, I have some things to take care of on my end."

"All right......"

Raiden Mei wasn't an unreasonable girl, nor did she try to keep him.

Li Xiao also turned into the wind and disappeared before their eyes.

"This is?"

Raiden Mei and Kiana stared wide-eyed in astonishment at this counterintuitive scene.

"Don't worry, this is Li Xiao's ability."

Bronya explained something to them.

......

Upon returning to Mondstadt, I discovered that the maid Noelle hadn't come back yet. I used Wind Listener to find that she was still helping others and that nothing serious had happened.

He simply told her that he wasn't staying at the villa that night, and then headed straight for Barbara's place.

Hehehe, Barbara, here I come!

He transformed into the wind and entered Barbara's room.

Seeing Barbara staring blankly at the vanity mirror for some reason, he went over and hugged her from behind.

Barbara felt someone hug her. She was startled at first, then looked up and saw Li Xiao's face, and instantly smiled with delight.

"Li Xiao, you're here! I thought..."

"What did I think? That I wouldn't come looking for you since I have somewhere to stay today?"

Barbara did have this thought. She was lost in thought in front of the mirror just now because she was a little uneasy, wondering if Li Xiao would contact her again tonight.

"Don't worry, how could I bear to part with you?"

"Hmph! I think you just can't bear to part with my white stockings, can you? Yesterday you were messing with my feet the most."

Barbara blushed a little as she spoke.

"Uh, it's because I like you."

Noticing Li Xiao's hand movement, Barbara pushed him away.

"Wait a minute, I'm not ready yet."

What do we need to prepare?

He quickly understood. Because Barbara had put on the white stockings.

Barbara tucked a strand of hair behind her ear with her finger and began to speak casually:

"I wasn't wearing white stockings just now because I was at home. This pair is new to me, and the quality is pretty good. It shouldn't break as easily as it did last night."

I also bought some black stockings and various colors of long and short socks. Take a look and see what you like, then try them on tonight.

Even Li Xiao was stunned by Barbara's actions. Had Barbara undergone a super evolution?

"Why don't you come over?"

Barbara sat on the bed, looking at him with some confusion, but then she remembered something and sighed.

"There's really nothing I can do about you."

She raised one foot, stretched it out towards Li Xiao, and then deliberately made a disgusted expression:

"Come and lick it!"

Σ( ° △ °|||)︴

He was shocked. Where did Barbara learn that from?!

Li Xiao really... really couldn't resist at all!

Li Xiao went straight for it, first putting the ice cream in her mouth just like yesterday.

Then he immediately showcased his culinary skills again, serving Barbara a stir-fried abalone.
