At this time, Bai Shi gently knocked on Su Chen's office door.
After hearing the voice "Come in" from inside, she pushed the door open carefully.
The moment she entered, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned - Su Chen and Ningguang were sitting on the sofa, seemingly chatting and drinking tea happily.
But she immediately noticed that Ningguang's lips were slightly swollen and her hair was a little messy.
"Why is Lady Ningguang's mouth a little swollen?!"
Bai Shi was very surprised. He just heard Lady Keqing mention that Lady Ningguang went to the kitchen to eat a bowl of noodles. Could it be that she was swollen from the noodles? !
"Mr. Su Chen, I've brought you some paper." Bai Shi said, his eyes curiously glancing back and forth between the two of them.
“Sir Ningguang, Lady Keqing came to see you just now. Should I ask her to come back?” Ningguang replied with a smile, her voice slightly hoarse but elegant: “Yes, please ask her to come back.”
After saying that, she picked up the water glass in her hand and took a sip gracefully.

Chapter 307 Ningguang: The noodles Su Chen prepared were too hot and my mouth was swollen
"Eh? Ning, Ningguang, why are you in the office?"
Keqing looked at Ningguang who was wiping her mouth, her face full of shock.
She had just left Ningguang's office, so why didn't she see Ningguang? But after just a short while, Ningguang appeared in the office again!
Could it be that Ningguang knew the magic of teleportation? That shouldn't be the case. Ningguang shouldn't have learned this magic, and Keqing has never heard of such an ancestor.
"Oh? Keqing, this is my office. Is it strange that I'm here?"
Ningguang gently covered her slightly swollen lips and spoke leisurely.
She also didn't expect that the noodles Su Chen prepared would be so hot that it made her mouth swollen.
In addition, Ningguang ate noodles too quickly, which caused her lips to hurt.
Fortunately, it is not very serious and should be able to get better after a while and will not affect work.
Of course, Su Chen could easily treat injuries of this degree, but he suddenly became interested and wanted to see what Ningguang would look like when other people saw her like this. In addition, he also wanted to avenge her for the sudden attack she had done when he wasn't paying attention.
If Su Chen's endurance was not far beyond that of an ordinary person, with such excellent ventriloquism as Ningguang Rich Lady, she would have probably fallen three thousand feet and made a fool of herself in front of Keqing.
Although Ningguang tried very hard to cover her mouth, the sharp-eyed Keqing still saw it and asked curiously: "But... Ningguang, what's wrong with your mouth? Why does it look so swollen?"
Ningguang covered her mouth and answered hesitantly, "Well...well, I was too hungry just now, so I asked Su Chen to make me a bowl of noodles."
"But because the noodles Su Chen prepared were too hot, they burned my mouth and made it swollen..."
After hearing Ningguang's explanation, Keqing turned her head and looked at Su Chen.
Su Chen nodded and covered for Ningguang.
Although Su Chen was happy to let Keqing join in, it was still too early to let Keqing know about himself and Ningguang, as it might easily lead to a Shura scene.
It would not be a fun thing if the two most powerful women among the seven stars of Liyue were fighting for control of the Qun Yu Pavilion. Their power might even be taken advantage of.
Bai Shi saw that the environment at the scene was a bit subtle, so he put down the tissue in his hand and hurriedly left the scene.
However, Keqing was still a little curious as to why Ningguang suddenly appeared here, so she turned back, walked into Ningguang's office, and sat on the sofa next to Ningguang.
"Let's not talk about this matter for now, but Ningguang, I suddenly thought of something very important. If the news of the death of the Geo King spreads to other countries, will the other countries take any action against Liyue?"
"Let's not talk about Mondstadt for now. They have been our friendly country since ancient times. Their gods are not in Mondstadt, and their main forces are not in the country. But what about the other countries?"
Keqing said this with a very serious look, crossing her arms over her chest, tilting her head and frowning slightly.
After hearing this, Ningguang's face, which had originally been slightly flushed, gradually calmed down.
Yes!
According to what Su Chen said before, in the continent of Teyvat, a country’s god is equivalent to that country’s ultimate weapon and is a deterrent to other countries.
But if this deterrent force is gone, then several other countries will inevitably be eyeing the resource-rich Liyue.
However, before Ningguang could say anything, Su Chen, who was sitting on the sofa, crossed his legs and said calmly, "You don't have to worry too much. There is no need to block the news of the emperor's death."
Su Chen knew that in a few days the ancestors of Liyue would know the news of the Emperor’s passing and would come in groups to interrogate the Seven Stars of Liyue.
Moreover, these immortals of Liyue have signed a contract with Morax that lasted for thousands of years. Even though the emperor is gone now, these immortals who think highly of themselves will not violate the contract with the Emperor Geo, and will continue to fulfill this contract and perform their duties.
"Hmm? Su Chen, do you have any reliable information?"
Hearing Su Chen's words, Keqing immediately became interested and began to take an interest in the temporary foreign aid of the Liyue Seven Stars in front of her.
Keqing was increasingly surprised by the young man in front of her, and she also discovered that Su Chen was not just a pretty face, but a man with real abilities. It seemed that she had underestimated him before.
"Yes, I got this information from a certain channel. You don't need to worry about how I got it."
Su Chen deliberately kept the topic in suspense, and casually stuffed the fruit on the table into his mouth and started chewing it. He looked very casual, as if he treated Pingyu Pavilion as his own home.
Ningguang raised her head and looked at Su Chen deeply: "I know you will definitely help us, right?"
Su Chen smiled and said meaningfully: "That's right, but if I can help you resist any possible enemies."
"You have to pay more!"
After hearing Su Chen's words, Ningguang finally let go of her worries. She might not be able to meet the authorization requirements in other ways, but Mora did.
"Since Mr. Su Chen has a way to deal with it, we don't need to waste resources to block the news of the emperor's death."
Keqing crossed her arms over her chest, supporting her chin, and spoke after careful consideration.
"Well... from the current situation, it is indeed true. If we forcibly block the news of the alien army, once the news is exposed, the credibility of our Liyue Seven Stars among the people will be greatly reduced."
Ningguang nodded in agreement and continued, “Once we lose the support of the people of Liyue, it will be much more difficult for Liyue to survive this crisis.”
"You two are smart. If that's the case, then there shouldn't be anything for me to do next. I'm going to go and rest first."
After Su Chen finished speaking, he stood up and straightened his waist.
Keqing happened to see this scene, and also saw the weapon Su Chen hid in his waistband to convince others with reason.
Keqing secretly sighed in her heart: "How much pain would it hurt if such a large weapon hit me?"
Thinking of this, Keqing couldn't help swallowing, and deep down she felt an urge to give it a try.
……
Meanwhile, Northland Bank.
The Northland Bank comes from the Kingdom of Winter and has branches in many places. When the Fatui are out on the move, they also use the funds provided by the Northland Bank and even use the bank as a base for their activities.
In an extremely hidden dark room.
The lady who had just arrived in Liyue, now with her three sisters who were ice magicians, looked at the masked man in front of her with disdain.
At the same time, her serious and mocking look seemed to be about to overflow from her eyes.
"Humph! It's really useless!"
The lady gracefully waved the train of her gorgeous gown like a ballerina on stage, only her version was bolder and sexier.
She paced lightly in her high heels, with a hint of uninhibitedness in her steps, and the "click-click-click" sound of each step sounded like playing a light tune.
She walked lightly to the sofa and sat down in a dramatic posture.
She crossed her white, slender legs, like an elf dancing in the moonlight, shining with alluring light.
There was a hint of teasing in her voice, as if she were engaging in an elegant contest. "Hey, I arrived in Liyue only a few days later than you, but the King of Hell, whom you were responsible for, had the misfortune of being assassinated. It's really unexpected."
She smiled slightly, with a hint of provocation hidden in her smile: "I heard that you spent a lot of money from the Fatui just to go to Liyue to show your courtesy, but what was the result? It seems that your 'superb' methods did not find us any reliable clues. Sigh, it really makes us Fatui embarrassed."
"Now, no one knows who has assassinated Morax, and the whereabouts of the Heart of God are unknown. Morax's body has also been taken away by the Seven Stars of Liyue. You are a member of our Fatui executive officers."
"If you delay Her Majesty's plan, what will be your crime?"
The lady became more and more excited as she spoke, and the sneer on her face was almost written all over her face.
Although [Young Master] Tartaglia was dissatisfied, he had nothing to refute. He could only slowly sit on the sofa on the other side and replied calmly: "I spent a lot of money because you ruined the reputation of our Fatui before. You did things by any means necessary, which made it difficult for me to move forward as soon as I arrived in Liyue."
"I finally found someone who could get the information, and spent a little extra Mora, and you're pointing fingers."
Tartaglia waved her hands, looking innocent. "Besides, none of us could have imagined that Morax would be assassinated. Moreover, in this land of music, I really can't think of any other force that would assassinate Morax."
After hearing Tartaglia's explanation, the lady was even more disgusted: "Humph! You say I do things unscrupulously? And I ruin the reputation of the Fatui? Fine, fine! Even if that's the case, I have completed the task assigned by the Queen and obtained the Heart of the God of Wind."
"But what about you? Not to mention the Heart of the God of Rock God, even Rock God is gone, and his body is being strictly guarded in the Golden House by the Thousand Rocks Army. I want to see how you can get Morax's body from them."
Tartaglia waved her hand and squinted her eyes as she answered, "Don't bother with that, Madam. I have my own arrangements."
In response to the lady's ridicule, Tartaglia simply raised his eyebrows with a look of disdain.
To him, women are like an endless soap opera, always playing out intrigues.
As for Tartaglia, he thinks he is more suitable to play the leading role in action movies.
As a well-known battle maniac among the Fatui, his original intention of joining this organization was not to play tricks.
What he longed for was to fight with a truly strong person and experience the thrill of adrenaline rush.
How to compete with a clever person like the lady?
Oh, that's really boring.
Perhaps it was his disdain for this kind of political game that landed him at the bottom of the Fatui hierarchy, the Fatui executive.
But in Tartaglia's view, this was just an insignificant farce, and he was more interested in real fighting.
Although Tartaglia usually disdains to compete with ladies in wits and courage, he can't just give in when she provoked him in public.
After all, as a man, how could he just stand there and do nothing while she pointed at him and scolded him?
Then, Tartaglia's expression suddenly became mysterious. He stared at the lady, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a sly smile: "I just heard that the lady seems to have a former confidante in Mondstadt."
"What's even more interesting is that my old friend was recently recruited as a consultant by the Seven Stars of Liyue. That's some exciting news, isn't it?"
Tartaglia teased softly, a playful glint in his eyes.
After saying this, he felt much better.
………………
Chapter 308: Emperor passes away, and the orders of Wangsheng Hall surge
Ever since he set foot in Liyue, he began sending people everywhere to collect intelligence.
When he had just arrived in Liyue, he began to arrange people to collect clues and information everywhere. At the same time, Tartaglia also learned about the general situation of the lady in Mondstadt. There is no wall that is impenetrable.
Su Chen was close to the lady, so naturally the news would reach Tartaglia's ears.
If it were normal times, Tartaglia would not care too much. After all, he never considered such things between men and women. All he had in his eyes was fighting, endless fighting.
But since the lady has criticized Tartaglia like this, you can't blame him for exposing his past.
When the lady heard what Tartaglia said, her confident smile instantly became stiff.
“What? That man actually came to Liyue as well?” A hint of surprise flashed through her mind.
Since she had just set foot on the land of Liyue, she had not yet fully grasped a lot of information.
But when the man was mentioned, she could almost immediately guess who Tartaglia was talking about.
After all, Tartaglia has always been known for her outspokenness, and this guy has never learned how to talk, let alone be smart enough to make up such a person to threaten her.
Hearing the news that Su Chen was also in Liyue, the lady felt as if she had been splashed with vinegar, with mixed feelings. She felt hatred and joy at the same time, and her heart was in turmoil.
"What is that man doing in Liyue? Doesn't he have several old lovers in Mondstadt and is living a happy life? Why did he suddenly come to Liyue?"
……
Su Chen strolled leisurely on the streets of Liyue Harbor, his eyes gently wandering over the beautiful scenery around him.
The sun shines on the ancient stone road, and every ray of light seems to be telling an ancient story.
"Aqiu~~~" Suddenly, he sneezed loudly, interrupting the silence around him.
"Huh? Which beauty is missing me again? Is it Yingmei who is only the size of a grapefruit, or Mona who wears a little meat bun?" Su Chen talked to himself with a naughty smile on his face.
"Come to think of it, it seems like I haven't fed them both in a while. They must be starving."
He thought about it again and smiled slightly: "Maybe it's Master Hu who is thinking about me. At this time, Master Hu probably needs someone to accompany him the most."
