Genshin Impact: The traitor doesn't even let his senior sister go

Song Yinjian looked a little embarrassed.

Because besides the Great Tree King and Paimon, passers-by on the road and guests in the restaurant were all watching them.

He patted Ying's back gently and said softly, "Ying, come down first! There are many people watching around."

Ying then gradually realized how bold her behavior was, and her pretty face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, like a ripe apple.

She buried her head in Song Yinjian's arms, not daring to see anyone.

In order to ease her embarrassment, Song Yinjian suggested, "Let's go eat first!"

"Yeah!" Ying responded softly, and then left his arms reluctantly.

The group walked into the restaurant and chose a secluded corner to sit down.

Ying took the initiative to sit opposite him.

Song Yinjian naturally understood this guy's little thoughts.

As expected, as soon as the dishes were served, she began to tease Song Yinjian in various ways right under the nose of the Great Mercy Tree King.

Song Yinjian endured it silently, occasionally frowning to cater to her bad taste.

However, this guy had no idea when to stop and became more and more aggressive.

Song Yinjian quickly grabbed her feet and gently tickled the soles of her feet.

In an instant, an itchy and numb feeling rushed to her forehead, making Ying couldn't help but let out a soft moan.

At this point, the Great Compassion Tree King could no longer ignore it and asked with concern, "Ying, are you okay?"

Ying's cheeks burned hot, and she whispered back, "I...I'm fine."

Afterwards, except for Paimon, everyone else finished the meal absentmindedly.

After leaving the restaurant, they found a high-end hotel to stay in.

late at night.

Ying skillfully entered Song Yinjian's room, and then "slept" with him madly to vent her longing in her heart.

After some tenderness, she snuggled in his arms, feeling his warmth.

"Ying, have you been okay recently?" Song Yinjian lowered his head, gently kissed her forehead, and asked softly.

Ying recalled her previous experiences and replied, "Travel is still full of wonderful adventures, but without you by my side, it feels like it's lost a lot of color."

Her voice was full of love for him, which made Song Yinjian feel even more pity for him.

The two hugged each other quietly, enjoying this rare warm moment.

.................................................

Somewhere in the abyss.

In the dark and silent space, Surtloch sat alone on the cold ground, his eyes slightly closed, exuding a calm and restrained aura.

Beside him, a two-handed sword was inserted diagonally, and the sword body shone with a cold light in the dim light.

Suddenly, a sound of heavy footsteps came from behind, getting closer and closer.

After hearing the voice, Surtloch frowned slightly and said calmly, "Prophet, are you unable to hold on any longer?"

I saw Viserfenir behind me with a face as pale as paper, without any blood, and a distorted and painful expression, as if he was suffering from great torture.

He exuded a strong aura of the abyss, which made people feel a chill.

"I can still hold on for a while, but not for long." Viserfenil said with difficulty, with a hint of fatigue and helplessness in his voice.

Chapter 343 Banker Pantalone

The next morning.

Song Yinjian leaned over and left a light kiss on the rosy cheek of the sleeping Ying, then turned and walked out of the room.

As soon as he stepped out of the door, he saw the Great Kind Tree King waiting for him.

Facing her intriguing eyes, Song Yinjian couldn't help but blush.

However, he was always thick-skinned, so he walked forward naturally, took her hand, and walked out.

The sky is still gloomy and there is no sign of clearing up.

On the streets, pedestrians are hurrying back and forth, with fatigue and anxiety on everyone's face.

Soon, the two arrived at the headquarters of Northland Bank.

In stark contrast to the treatment they received at Piero's, they were treated extremely warmly here.

Pantalone even went out to greet him personally and showed him great respect.

A moment later, the three of them held a meeting in a spacious and warm reception room.

Pantalone wore the trademark smile of a professional businessman. "Master Song, I regret what General Officer Piero did, but I hope you can understand."

Song Yinjian chuckled upon hearing this, and then said mercilessly: "Pantaronne, in fact, compared to Piero, I hate you more.

He is a pure idealist, while you are a sophisticated egoist."

After he finished speaking, Pantalone's expression turned a little ugly.

If the person in front of him was not the Liyue Immortal Master who controls most of the mortal world, he would have already lost his temper.

He suppressed the rage burning within him and forced a forced smile on his face. "Master Song, are you humiliating me like this just to regain the face you lost with Piero?"

Upon hearing this, Song Yinjian shrugged nonchalantly and asked, "Do you think I'm at that level?"

"Then what is your purpose in doing this?" Pantalone asked through gritted teeth.

Song Yinjian showed a cold smile on his face, "Of course, it's to get rid of your greed and ambition!"

Don't think that Piero and I will keep offering high prices to win you over.

Once we have a falling out, my first move will be to bring down the Northland Bank!"

After these words were spoken, Pantalone's expression became even uglier.

He knew very well that Song Yinjian was not joking and he was fully capable of doing this.

Two years ago, this guy just made a slight move, and a behemoth like Northland Bank almost collapsed due to a "bank run crisis".

"I choose to remain neutral. This is the limit of what I can do." Pantalone said with difficulty.

Song Yinjian shook his head calmly, "Not enough, I need you to stand completely on my side."

Pantalone's eyes were firm, with an unyielding light flashing in them. "Even if you kill me, I will not completely stand on your side. This is my principle as a Fatui."

His resolute attitude moved even the Great Compassion Tree King standing beside him.

Song Yinjian simply chuckled. "Fifty percent of Northland Bank's shares in exchange for ten percent of Liyue Bank's shares. After the deal is completed, I'll give you one percent of Liyue Bank's shares as compensation."

"Okay!" Pantalone agreed without hesitation. "Master Song, I will stand firmly by your side."

Song Yinjian wasn't surprised by his swift change of expression. He said coldly, "Put all your energy into the war now. If you fail, everything will be meaningless."

Pantalone replied politely, "I understand that very well."

Song Yinjian said nothing more, took the hand of the Great Ci Tree King, turned and left.

After walking a distance from the North Country Bank, the Great Compassion Tree King turned his head to look at Song Yinjian, a hint of admiration in his eyes. "Yinjian, your use of the stick and carrot method is really powerful."

Song Yinjian shook his head slightly. "Methods are only one aspect. More importantly, Pantalone cannot refuse the conditions I offer."

Then, the two walked towards the Winter City Hall.

When they were almost there, they unexpectedly saw a familiar figure.

When the man saw Song Yinjian, he immediately turned around and ran away, as if he had seen something terrible.

But how could Song Yinjian give him such an opportunity? He flashed and stood in front of him in an instant.

"Tartaria, is this the attitude you have when you meet your boss?"

Tartaglia said with a bitter face, "Master Song, can't you just let me go? I suffered a lot in Fontaine before."

Song Yinjian said earnestly, "I'm training you. You should know that to become a great warrior, you must go through all kinds of trials."

When Tartaglia heard this and thought about it carefully, it seemed to be true.

Previously in Fontaine, he was tricked by Song Yinjian and sent to Mello Petersburg.

Then he sank into the primordial womb sea and fought a fierce battle with the star-devouring whale.

As a result, my strength has improved a lot.

Could it be... is this really the case?

He thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure it out. However, he had already made up his mind not to work for Song Yinjian anymore.

"Master Song, my strength has improved a lot now, and I don't need to hone it anymore."

Hearing this, Song Yinjian's eyes flashed with cunning, "Do you really think you have made a lot of progress?

Now, I give you a chance to challenge the travelers.

If you can beat her, everything between us will be over. If not, then continue to accept the training I give you.

Upon hearing this, Tartaglia patted his chest confidently and declared loudly, "Now I am sure I can defeat the Traveler! Look forward to my magnificent battle display!"

After saying that, he strode away into the distance, full of fighting spirit.

Song Yinjian looked at his receding figure and couldn't help but sigh, "Fools are still easy to fool!"

Then, he and the Great Tree King stepped into the door of the City Hall.

Not long after entering, Puccinila came hurriedly, leaning on his cane. "Master Song, I'm so sorry. I was busy with official duties and couldn't greet you in time."

Song Yinjian bowed slightly and said gently, "Mr. Mayor, you don't have to be so polite."

Then, led by Puccini, the three of them walked into a spacious and warm office.

Just as they were about to start talking, a secretary hurried in and leaned over to whisper something in Puccini's ear.

The smile on Puccini's face gradually faded, and then he said to Song Yinjian with an apologetic look, "I'm so sorry, I have urgent matters to attend to and I have to go out."

Song Yinjian remained calm and responded, "Mr. Mayor, I understand your difficulties and I also offer you my utmost respect."

There was an obvious hint in his words.

Puccini naturally heard what he said, nodded, and then walked out quickly with his cane.

Chapter 344 The Situation of Winter

Pucciniera, leaning on his cane, hurried into the cold and dim office.

As soon as I came in, I saw Piero's tall and oppressive back.

He slowly turned around, looked down at Pucciniera, who was breathing heavily, and said, "Mr. Mayor, I'm glad you made a wise choice."

Pucciniera raised his head slightly uncomfortably and responded respectfully, "Sir, only you can lead the winter and realize the Queen's lofty ideals."

Satisfied with his answer, Piero continued, "After the war, I will hand over the affairs of the Northland Bank to the management of the City Hall."

After hearing this, Puccini's shrewd eyes revealed a hint of greed. "Thank you very much for your trust. The City Hall will firmly support you."

Piero warned solemnly: "Never forget the morality behind our foolish actions!"

Soon after, Puccini took his leave.

Sitting in the returning steam car, he turned his head to glance at the office building outside the window and couldn't help but sigh.

Under the pressure from the Liyue Immortal Master, Piero has changed and started to use benefits to win over supporters.

However, his methods were still too crude.

The Northland Bank is indeed a good thing, but the problem is that its reputation is too bad, and all it circulates is blood, flesh, and wailing.

Once the city hall takes over, it will bear huge negative public pressure.

Compared with Song Yinjian, he is still far behind.

Especially in dealing with people, Piero regards himself as a subordinate who can be ordered around, while Song Yinjian regards himself as a friend of equal status.

This made Puccini more inclined to choose Song Yinjian.
