Genshin Impact, Raiden Shin joins the chat group

"A ghost?!" Mona was stunned. How could a ghost eat?! That didn't make sense!

At the scene, perhaps only Mona had never truly experienced the deliciousness of walnuts.

But her diviner's keen sixth sense was telling her that she absolutely must not eat this! Eating it would likely lead to something terrible.

"Oh dear, I had my guest elder try it, and he said it was alright." Seeing that they didn't believe her, Hu Tao directly pointed out that Zhong Li had eaten the dish, so it was perfectly fine.

“………………”X2

Both Ella and Black Ella fell silent.

Coral Palace Heart Sea and Hisagi Shinobu even stood up subconsciously. Although they were not full yet, if they continued to eat, it might be fatal.

In fact, everyone here knows that Mr. Zhongli is extraordinary. He once said that he had tried dishes made with walnuts.

At that time, Hu Tao's cooking was still normal, but suddenly one day, Master Hu seemed to have "seen the light," and everything he did was hard to evaluate.

From the perspective of some beings, walnut dishes are quite good, but unfortunately, such dishes are still a bit too advanced for humans.

The chief priest of Narukami Shrine, who had been hurt, once said that if she had another chance, she would never have eaten Kurumi's cooking.

Because this could really cost the fox its life!

Upon hearing Hu Tao's words, Su Hao tagged Zhong Li in the group chat to ask if he was alright.

In response, Zhongli said, "Don't eat the food made by Master Hu; I've already vomited it up."

Upon seeing this, those present who had chat groups seemed even less inclined to eat the "delicious" walnuts.

The kind of "food" that even Mr. Zhongli couldn't stomach must be something we all know what it is.

"I'm stuffed."

Kuki Shinobu quickly stood up and said in a serious tone, "I'm going to see my senior sister today! I made an appointment with her to go and entertain the guests from Mondstadt this afternoon."

The personnel coming from Mondstadt have been confirmed, and Liyue has also received the news.

The delegation from Mondstadt visiting Liyue consisted of Jean, Klee, Abedo, Yura, and Kaeya.

If nothing unexpected happens, they will arrive this afternoon. Although it is noon now, it does not prevent Hisagi Shinobu from going to find her senior sister now.

For no other reason than to avoid the [food] made from walnuts.

"I'll go too," Su Hao quickly said.

The others present nodded in agreement, while Ella and Black Ella quietly tidied up the table.

"Huh? Visitors from Mondstadt? Is Klee among them?"

Hu Tao caught the key phrase, and without even caring about the food she had painstakingly prepared, she quickly asked, "Is she coming too?!"

Clearly, Hu Tao adored Ke Li, this obedient and sensible child.

Last time we parted in a hurry, and I heard she went to Xumi to have fun. I wonder how her trip there was.

"Okay." Su Hao nodded, indicating that Keli would come over.

"That's great!" Hu Tao jumped up, looking extremely happy. She quickly said, "When are they coming? I'd love for Ke Li to try my latest dish."

"I told Klee a few months ago that I was going to make a delicious dish to share with her... Wait, where's my dish?"

At this moment, Hu Tao suddenly realized that the dishes she had placed on the table had disappeared, which filled her eyes with confusion.

What happened? The food disappeared in the blink of an eye?!

What's going on? Is this some kind of supernatural event?! What the hell is so audacious! Daring to cause trouble right under her nose?!

"What happened?" Su Hao also looked surprised, not understanding what had happened.

"I don't know, the food suddenly disappeared!?" Mona was also very surprised, her eyes had just been on the table.

Since a month had passed and Mona had recovered from the backlash, she wanted to use divination to see what would happen if she tasted this "delicacy".

This delicious dish, made by Hu Tao herself, simply vanished.

"How strange," Ying said seriously, without finding it strange at all.

Paimon stared at the chat group, not daring to utter a sound, because she knew her acting skills were poor, so at this critical juncture, all she had to do was play dumb.

Ella, Black Ella, Coral Miyako Kokoro, and Hisaki Shinobu also pretended to be clueless, indicating that they did not understand what had happened.

Of course, it was Su Hao who did this, because he secretly put the "food" made by Hu Tao into the chat group through the group red envelope function.

It seems Ruoduo was faster and snatched Hu Tao's "Food" directly. Hopefully, he saw what I said.

You absolutely can't eat this stuff! Who knows what might happen if you take a bite?

"Never mind, let's not worry about it." Hu Tao didn't care about these trivial matters either. She waved her hand and said excitedly, "Let's go to Liyue Harbor and wait for them."

"Oh dear, Klee left in such a hurry last time that I haven't given her the improved talisman yet."

“She’s just a little girl, it’s dangerous for her to be out in the world. Even though she has people protecting her, people always grow up. I think I should prepare some protective amulets for her now.”

Seeing what Hu Tao said, Su Hao couldn't help but ask, "What type of talisman is it?"

Hu Tao replied matter-of-factly, "Of course it's a talisman to amplify the power of the Bouncing Bomb. Just stick it on, and it can probably double its power."

"This is a talisman that I meticulously researched, the kind that can be passed down to future generations. I'm truly a genius."

At this point, Hu Tao puffed out her chest, looking extremely proud.

Upon hearing Hu Tao's words, anyone present who understood the power of Klee's Bouncing Bomb couldn't help but picture this scene.

Klee attaches talismans to the bouncy bombs, then throws them one after another, with monsters being blown into the sky behind her and mountains on the verge of collapse.

That scene was truly terrifying.

This made Su Hao determined that no matter what, he couldn't let Klee, Kurumi, and Yoomiya meet!

Klee and Kurumi already have such a strange reaction when they meet; if we add Night Palace to the mix, Liyue Harbor might be in grave danger.

"Master."

"We've finished packing."

At this moment, Ella and Black Ella appeared, and in just a few words, the two of them finished handling everything.

"Alright, let's go find Shinobu's senior sister first."

Su Hao directly stated that he would first go find Ren's senior sister, who is Li Yue Luo Xiang—Yan Fei.

Ever since learning that a Knight of Favonius named Yola from Mondstadt had come to Liyue to participate in the Summoning Ceremony, Yanfei had been in high spirits.

If nothing unexpected happens, she should be waiting for them at the General Affairs Department now.

"Okay!" Hu Tao agreed, but then she still glanced at the table, and when she found that the food she had worked so hard to make was indeed gone, she sighed and felt a little helpless.

Recently, there have been more and more paranormal events. More than once, food prepared by the person in question has mysteriously disappeared inside the Wangsheng Hall.

When asked, the guest advisor also claimed to know nothing and expressed great confusion.

Unexpectedly, this kind of thing happened at Su Hao's house. Could it be that some terrifying being coveted the food he made and secretly took it away?

And so, Su Hao and his group headed towards the General Affairs Department.

Over there, Su Hao and the others saw Ye Lan and Yan Fei talking outside the General Affairs Department. They both had slight smiles on their faces, clearly indicating that they were having a conversation.

"Huh?" Su Hao was a little surprised to see Ye Lan, because he didn't expect her to be in the General Affairs Department.

Although Ye Lan is nominally in charge of general affairs, she is actually a special operations agent directly under Ning Guang.

Simply put, wherever there is work, there she is.

Just like Zhongli, the other party was ostensibly a guest of the Hall of Rebirth, but the number of times she was seen in the Hall of Rebirth could be counted on one hand.

However, if you are in other places in Liyue Harbor, such as teahouses or antique shops, finding Zhongli is relatively easy.

The situation is even more so for Yelan right now; it's truly a miraculous thing that the other party would appear in the General Affairs Department.

You can tell how busy Liyue is right now just by looking at Keqing constantly complaining in the chat group.

Someone as capable and talented as Ye Lan should be busy with all sorts of things, not sitting in the General Affairs Department chatting with Yan Fei.

Ye Lan noticed someone watching her, and she subconsciously looked over, a smile flashing in her eyes. She walked towards them, saying as she went, "Oh my~ isn't this Lord Su Hao and the traveler?"

"It's been a long time! How have you all been these past two weeks?"

Ye Lan came to Su Hao and his group; she hadn't seen them for more than half a month.

“Yes, the food, drinks, and entertainment in Liyue Harbor are all excellent.”

Su Hao exchanged pleasantries for a moment, then looked at Ye Lan and Yan Fei and asked, "Aren't you busy?"

Both Ye Lan and Yan Fei are quite busy, especially Yan Fei, who has been getting more and more people coming to her for business lately.

However, Yanfei received news that Yura would be coming to Liyue Harbor today. As the "host," she canceled all her business and commissions for the day, just to properly entertain Yura and her party.

But Yan Fei had her reasons, so what was Ye Lan's?

Yelan noticed Su Hao's confusion and chuckled, "Today, I am in charge of receiving the delegation from Mondstadt."

"Huh? Isn't Ningguang supposed to be the one to entertain us?" Paimon asked, quite puzzled, because Ningguang was the one who was supposed to be in charge of entertaining others.

But Ningguang didn't choose to receive guests this time. Was she too busy? Is it really a good idea to entrust such an important task as receiving others to Yelan?

You should know that Commander Jean is the acting commander of the Knights of Favonius!

Ying and Mona looked at Yelan with some surprise. It seemed a bit inappropriate to let Yelan take over such a big matter.

At the very least, shouldn't one of the Liyue Seven Stars come and greet Jean and her group?

After all, Jean is the acting leader of the Knights of Favonius, and her status in Mondstadt is equivalent to that of the Seven Stars of Liyue.

"You may have misunderstood." Seeing the puzzled and incredulous looks on everyone's faces, Ye Lan explained with a smile, "Lady Ningguang has been very busy lately, so she has not been able to entertain them immediately."

"Therefore, I was arranged to wait here for the Mondstadt delegation to arrive, to entertain them for a while, and then, when Lady Ningguang has time, I will lead them to the Jade Pavilion."

Ye Lan's voice revealed a hint of helplessness. In fact, she was quite busy, but compared to her, the Lady Ningguang in the Qunyu Pavilion seemed even busier.

With the Immortal Summoning Ceremony approaching, Ningguang had far too many things to handle.

Even when meeting with foreign delegations, she had to make special arrangements for the time. And whether it was Ye Lan's imagination or not, Ning Guang seemed to have dark circles under her eyes recently.

It's quite rare that someone who pays such attention to health and wellness would have dark circles under her eyes.

This also shows how hard Ningguang has been working lately; the closer the Immortal Invitation Ceremony gets, the busier she becomes.

“Yes.” Yan Fei nodded and said seriously, “That’s why Ye Lan and I discussed it. We were just thinking that since we’re entertaining them…”
