Genshin Impact, Raiden Shin joins the chat group

Didn't Gui Zhong mention in the chat group earlier that he was going to Guyun Pavilion to test the Ruo Tuo machine? Why is he suddenly showing up here?

"Surprised? Unexpected?" Gui Zhong seemed to see Su Hao's doubts and said with a smile, "Actually, I went to Guyun Pavilion and Ruo Tuoji was fine."

"So I thought, since I'm just killing time anyway, why don't I come over and have a meal here? After all, you've all started using legendary kitchenware, haven't you?"

"I've hardly ever eaten food made with those legendary cooking utensils, so this is a good opportunity to try it out."

"On the way here, we happened to meet Mr. Zhongli, who was planning to have tea and listen to music, and we brought him along."

As he said this, Su Hao glanced quietly at Zhong Li not far away.

A hint of helplessness flashed in Zhongli's eyes, but he continued to calmly drink his tea, as if nothing had anything to do with him.

He clearly didn't want to come, but he didn't expect to be caught by Gui Zhong on the way, so he came along too.

"It's alright, one more person means one more pair of chopsticks." Su Hao didn't mind at all. He looked at Jiuqi Ren who came out of the kitchen and asked, "There should be enough food, right?"

Jiuqi Ren nodded, then glanced at Shen He not far away and said seriously, "Because we have taken into account the appetites of some people, we have prepared a relatively large amount of food here."

"And they all use legendary kitchen utensils, so the taste is definitely not a problem."

Because of the large quantity of food to be prepared, Hisagi Shinobu requested legendary kitchen utensils from Rai Movie, and indicated that Coral Palace Kokoro would be making desserts that evening.

Each dessert was prepared and given to the General to taste first.

Therefore, Kuki Shinobu, Hotaru, Kokoro, and others all used the legendary cooking utensils to make food, so the taste must have been excellent.

As for whether it can compare to the exquisite dishes meticulously prepared by master chefs...

Well, let's forget about that. It's not comparable to the meticulously crafted products of others, or the mass-produced ones made by people like Shinobu Hisaki.

The food they made was so precise, down to the second. Although Kuki Shinobu and the others were seriously preparing food in the kitchen, they would still get distracted, checking the chat group and listening to some gossip.

The topics discussed by the gods, such as the Great Tree King, Raiden Shin, and Wendy, were indeed quite explosive.

There are things about Canria, and also about the gathering of the Seven Gods.

One of the less-than-secret secrets is the story of Barbatos, the wind god, who, while drunk and dizzy, poured wine on the head of the Rock King.

Hmm, this secret is really too explosive; only those at the Seven Gods level can know it.

After hearing about things like this, do you really expect Hisaki Shinobu and the others to cook in peace?

That's clearly impossible, so Shinobu Hisaki can only guarantee that the taste is fine, but it's impossible for it to be particularly outstanding.

"Okay." After receiving confirmation from Jiuqi Ren, Su Hao felt that he didn't need to order from Wanmintang and could have Xiangling cook instead.

"Oh dear! Sit down quickly!! I'm starving!!!" Paimon was extremely anxious, urging everyone to sit down and start eating.

She was so hungry that she ended up heading to the Abyss of Laminaria instead of having a meal.

She then spent a day and a night in that eerie space. Although Paimon probably slept most of the time, she felt her hunger slowly returning after she came out.

If Paimon hadn't sneaked a little food in the kitchen, he would have felt like he was starving to death.

Ying looked at Paimon with a somewhat ambiguous expression. Paimon had been sneaking a lot of food in the kitchen just now; surely he wouldn't starve to death?

"Alright, alright, everyone, please sit down."

Seeing that Paimon looked like he was about to starve, Su Hao also felt a bit hungry and invited everyone to sit down and eat.

"Yay!!!" Klee jumped up happily, looking extremely excited.

"I'll go get the bowls and chopsticks," Abedo said, intending to go get the bowls and chopsticks.

"I'll go get the dishes," Shen He said, intending to go get the dishes.

Ella and Black Ella exchanged a glance, then went to get a stool and a table.

With so many people eating, we definitely need to prepare some food.

Soon, everything was ready, and all sorts of delicious dishes were served.

Golden shrimp balls, "Immortal Jumps Over the Wall" (a Sichuan dish), boiled black-backed sea bass, braised vegetables and meat in white sauce, golden crab, sweet stuffed chicken, and more...

Seeing so much delicious food, Su Hao even took out the Naruto Sake and asked Abedo and Zhongli if they wanted to have a few drinks.

Abedo and Zhongli exchanged a glance and shook their heads, indicating that they would not drink.

Because they still had things to do, Abedo needed to continue researching the power within his body, while Zhongli had an appointment to drink tea and it wasn't appropriate for him to drink alcohol now.

Klee is very interested in Narukami sake! Unfortunately, she's too young to drink it.

Gui Zhong was very interested; although she had already drunk some, she still wanted to drink some more!

Su Hao glanced at Zhong Li, who remained expressionless, so he righteously refused Gui Zhong's offer.

So... in the end, no one got to drink the Naruto Sake. Su Hao put it away and then invited everyone to start eating.

At the dinner table, Gui Zhong grew increasingly fond of Ke Li, even placing her on his lap and saying, "Tell me what you want to eat! I'll start eating!"

This made Keli extremely happy, and she thanked Guizhong repeatedly.

Then Gui Zhong became even happier and even took the initiative to ask Ke Li if she wanted to fry fish, and she took her to Gu Yun Ge to fry fish.

Bomb away! Even if Osel appears, she's not afraid! With the Dragon King Ra and Morax standing behind her, she's just that tough!

Klee's face lit up with excitement, but she quickly shook her head, indicating that she wouldn't do it again, since she had already made a mistake today and wouldn't be thinking about frying fish anytime soon.

She also kept Su Hao's words in mind, and decided not to use the bouncy bomb for frying fish until she had completely improved it.

Abedo's expression was complicated. He felt relieved that there were no ordinary Liyue people here, given Klee's sweet talk.

Otherwise, Klee's address of "Sister Gui Zhong" would be equivalent to a super seniority increase!

Shen He focused solely on eating, while Zhong Li commented on the food; the two seemed oblivious to Gui Zhong and Ke Li's conversation.

This made Aberdo quietly breathe a sigh of relief; it was good that the two of them didn't react.

At the dinner table, the group even discussed D'Artagnan's suspicious behavior, wondering what he was really after.

Because Tartaglia entered the Abyss of Lapis Lazuli after signing a pact, it seems he accomplished nothing except rescuing a group of Fools.

If that's all there is to it, why would he sign a contract that's detrimental to himself?

Just as everyone was discussing matters concerning the Fools, D'Artagnan and Yelan came to visit.

Chapter 288 The Lady's Shock

Yes, D'Artagnan and Yelan did come to visit, but by the time they arrived, everyone had already finished eating.

Gui Zhong even said goodbye in advance, and took Klee with him, because she needed Klee to come and install some [things] on the Rota Machine.

Abedo was quite helpless about this, saying that he also wanted to go, partly because he wanted to see Jodo, and partly because...

He was still worried about Klee and Gui Zhong, especially since Gui Zhong was known as a giant walnut!

Don't worry about her! It's better to trust Hu Tao, at least Hu Tao knows what she should and shouldn't do.

In short, I have the Dragon King Rothrade and Morax behind me! On the land of Liyue! Who dares to harm me!

Therefore, Guizhong, Klee, and Abedo left ahead of time, and not long after they left, D'Artagnan and Nightlan arrived.

Ella led the two of them into the house. Dadalia and Nightland smelled the fragrance in the air, and for a moment they both showed a rather regretful expression.

Tartaglia and Yelan are well aware of the "Taste of Liyue" event, as it is the most famous event of its kind.

It's not about laughing at this unknown chef who broke through the ranks to become number one, but about how magical the legendary cooking utensils, personally forged by General Thunder, are.

So they could smell that the aroma of food in the air was undoubtedly from the legendary kitchenware.

This left D'Artagnan and Night Orchid feeling somewhat regretful. If they had known earlier that Su Hao would be using legendary cooking utensils to forge food at noon, they would have come and joined in the fun.

Paimon patted his round belly, looking like he was about to burst from overeating.

"Ah, I'm so full." Paimon lay comfortably on Ying's shoulder, not even wanting to fly anymore.

"It tastes really great." Coral Palace Heart Sea also showed a rather happy expression. It is said that food made with the best cooking utensils really does taste very good.

Hisayuu nodded. She was also amazed by her own skills, although she knew very well that most of the credit should go to the legendary kitchen utensils.

Knowing that this delicious food was made by her, Hisagi Shinobu couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.

"Ningguang is looking for me?" Su Hao also looked at Dadalia and Yelan, and put down his chopsticks.

Seeing this, Black Ella knew that the young master had finished eating, and without saying a word, she took out a tissue to wipe his mouth.

Ella herself watched quietly, but her clenched fists revealed just how unwilling she was to accept it.

"Um……"

Ye Lan nodded slightly and said seriously, "Lady Ningguang invited you to Qunyu Pavilion. As for the man next to me... he's been shamelessly pestering me."

D'Artagnan shrugged, his tone utterly helpless. "How can this be called shameless? If you hadn't kept the lady under house arrest, would I have come all this way?"

"Furthermore, according to the relevant rules, you have placed the Winter Envoy under house arrest without cause. Can I interpret this as Liyue unilaterally abolishing the alliance?"

D'Artagnan's voice was calm, but he wasn't joking, because the matter was genuinely infuriating.

Tartaglia was initially quite disappointed that he hadn't found any trace of the Dragon King Rota in the Abyss of Layered Rocks, although he had unexpectedly found the sealed location of the Whirlpool Demon God Oser here.

But before he could even begin his plan, he discovered that the woman had been placed under house arrest. She had originally intended to wait until he emerged from the Laminaria before heading to Mondstadt.

Unexpectedly, he learned from his subordinates that the lady had gone to Qunyu Pavilion and had not returned for a day and a night.

Although Tartaglia was a martial arts fanatic and craved battle, he wasn't stupid and naturally understood why the lady had suddenly "disappeared."

After all, the restart of the Laminariat is no small matter, especially considering that she was once a woman who caused a lot of trouble in Inazuma and Mondstadt.

Naturally, they will be listed as a key focus.

Tartaglia could understand Liyue's actions, but despite his understanding, he would still come over to speak up for the lady.

As a colleague, D'Artagnan felt indignant on the woman's behalf. While she was certainly capable of causing trouble, hadn't she already done anything yet?! Why were you placing her under house arrest?!

That's pretty much the idea.

"Don't worry, she's just a guest." Ye Lan had just come down from Qunyu Pavilion and said with a smile, "She can leave Qunyu Pavilion at any time, but she just doesn't want to."

Ye Lan's meaning was clear: the lady could leave Qunyu Pavilion at any time, but she simply didn't want to.

Ningguang and the lady are both cunning old foxes; they both know what the other wants, so they are currently engaged in a passionate argument.

As for Tartaglia's claim of breaking the alliance? Half a year ago, when the Doctor was causing trouble on the Liyue land, this alliance was practically worthless.

"..." Dadalia didn't speak. He crossed his arms and looked at Zhongli not far away.
