Su Chen wanted to talk more with Xingqiu, but he could feel the increasingly charming atmosphere in the air. Although Xingqiu looked very cute, he was a boy after all!
After saying goodbye to Xingqiu, Su Chen noticed the time and it was already the next day.
I didn’t expect to spend the whole night petting a fox in a mysterious dream space!
Even though it's just a fox, it was transformed by Yae God after all, so it's still very charming and it's quite normal to play with it for a whole night.
Of course, Su Chen is not an Indian from Blue Star who would be interested in non-human creatures.
But...except for girls with animal ears!
No wonder in the previous life on Blue Star, people called foxes "foxies". Su Chen just felt itchy in his heart, and the little Su Chen under him could not control himself.
It just so happened that Su Chen hadn’t seen the rich woman Ningguang for quite a while.
I heard that the Qun Yu Pavilion was recently rebuilt. I wonder what interesting places there are.
......
In the elegant inner room of the Qun Yu Pavilion, Ningguang crossed her legs leisurely, her eyes revealing deep interest.
She was concentrating on observing Ye Lan who had just taken off her disguise, and exclaimed: "Your disguise skills are getting better and better. When you just came back, I almost didn't recognize you."
Ye Lan gently took off the camouflage device on her body, then simply tidied herself up and sat opposite Ningguang.
She waved her hands and responded helplessly, "Don't mention it, Lady Ningguang. Do you think I like such trouble? But in order to collect intelligence for the General Affairs Department, I have to do this." At this point, she sighed softly, "I have to maintain multiple identities to ensure that I won't be easily discovered."
During the conversation, Ye Lan yawned unconsciously and looked a little tired. Her eyes were slightly red, as if her energy had been exhausted by the long secret mission. It seemed that she was showing her unknown hardship and fatigue.
Ye Lan half-jokingly made a small request to Ning Guang: "...Ha~ Next time when you come to report to me, can you not come so early?"
She then added helplessly: "You know I'm a night owl. I like to go to bed in the second half of the night and sleep until noon."
Although there was a hint of complaint on her lips, Ye Lan held tightly in her hands the intelligence files she had carefully compiled. These files recorded in detail the recent activities of the Fatui, and she handed them to Ningguang without hesitation.
Recently, the Fatui's actions have been particularly unusual. Not only have they gathered near Liyue Harbor, they have also shown signs of a large-scale operation.
Even important figures among the Fatui - the "Lady" and the "Young Master" - have appeared in Liyue City, adding to the unusualness of this gathering.
However, just when everything seemed to be ready, all the Fatui members inside and outside the city suddenly evacuated, even those who had not yet entered the city disappeared, as if they were hiding from something.
Even Liyue’s star of wisdom, Ningguang, was confused and puzzled by all these changes.
Ningguang lowered her head to examine the information recorded by Ye Lan. Her eyes became heavy, her slender fingers tapped lightly on the table, her brows furrowed, revealing her serious concern about the matter.
Apparently, even Ningguang, who was known as the Heavenly Power Star, found this series of events inexplicable and full of mysteries.
“Why did the Fatui leave Liyue Harbor so quickly? Did something unexpected happen?” Ningguang suddenly said.
"Then I don't know. I'm only responsible for gathering intelligence. As for analyzing this intelligence..." Ye Lan said as she walked out of the house, "That's not something that small people like us should worry about."
Ningguang was silent for a moment, quickly sorting out the information in her mind. Looking at Ye Lan's back, she suddenly asked, "Could it be that their departure is related to Su Chen?"
"Su Chen?"
Hearing this name, Ye Lan, who was about to walk to the door, suddenly froze.
Ye Lan had heard this name from Ningguang more than once. She had also tried to investigate the man's background, but to no avail.
Ye Lan suddenly rushed to Ning Guang and said to her in a very intense tone:
“Ningguang, I have told you so many times that it is very dangerous to come into contact with someone whose identity is unclear!”
As soon as I said this, I suddenly realized my own impoliteness.
Ningguang is no longer the same Ningguang as before, but the high and mighty Tianquanxing who now controls Liyue.
After realizing her own misconduct, Ye Lan bowed gently to Ningguang and expressed her apology: "I'm sorry, Master Ningguang, I was too impulsive just now."
Ningguang responded with a tolerant smile. She could see from Ye Lan's eyes that she was genuinely concerned about her. She said gently, "Ye Lan, please talk to me in private. You don't have to stick to these etiquettes."
"Besides, your worries are totally unnecessary."
Ningguang then revealed further information, with a barely perceptible hint of pride in her voice.
Because she knew that Su Chen was not only Tian Quanxing's boyfriend now, but according to her plan, he would soon become Tian Quanxing's husband.
This candid sharing reveals the deep connection that is about to form between the two.
Ningguang, as a shrewd businessman, has a pragmatic philosophy in her words. To her, Su Chen's true identity is not important. The key is that he will not pose a threat to her interests.
"As long as he doesn't infringe on my interests, it doesn't matter who he is."
Her words are full of the calmness and rationality unique to businessmen. She chooses to keep a distance from things that are beyond the scope of business interests. This is also her way of survival as a businessman.
“Ningguang, you…”
Ye Lan was speechless for a moment. It was the first time she saw Ningguang trust someone so much, and that person was a strange man.
However, she also began to develop some interest in this man named 'Su Chen'. When she had time, she would definitely find out his background thoroughly.
Ye Lan felt that this man was definitely not as simple as "a traveler from outer space" as he seemed!
"Okay, okay, don't worry about me." Ningguang's slightly frowned brows relaxed, and she looked at Ye Lan with a comforting expression.
"You've helped me so much this time. Tell me, what reward do you want? As long as it's not too unreasonable, I will try my best to meet your request."
"For example... a painting of 'Liyue Millennium' made by me personally?"
“No, no, no, you should keep the Liyue Millennium for yourself.” Ye Lan waved her hands, with an expression as if she saw through Ningguang.
She is already a well-known wealthy woman in the whole of Teyvat, so why is she still so stingy when doing things?
"Isn't your unused 'Yan Shang Tea House' always empty? If you don't mind, let me take care of it. I just need a base."
As if she was afraid that Ningguang would disagree, Ye Lan pretended to yawn and fled out of Ningguang's room.

Chapter 425: Queen of Winter: Rosaline has a lover outside?
On the other hand, "Madam" Rosaline has hurried back to the Kingdom of Winter.
Snowflakes were falling from the sky, and the entire imperial capital of the Kingdom of Winter was covered in silver. Rosaline walked on the thick snow without stopping for a moment and went straight to the Queen's palace.
Her heart was filled with eagerness, eager to show the queen the result of her journey - the Heart of the God of Rock.
The splendor of the palace seemed to fade temporarily in Rosalin's eyes, and her attention was entirely on the upcoming report.
Entering the meeting room, she discovered that only eight of the eleven seats of the Fatui were present.
She was not surprised, knowing that Dottore and Santoni always missed various meetings on the grounds of "scientific research."
Piero, the "clown", as the chief of the Fatui, his existence always gives people a sense of unpredictability.
As Rosalyn walked by, he smiled with a touch of admiration and respect.
Rosalin's success in obtaining two Hearts of God in a row made Piero look at her with admiration.
Unlike other Fatui executives, "Clown" Piero, as the chief of the Fatui, does not engage in intrigue with other executives.
His status throughout the entire winter was second only to one person and above everyone else.
Except for the Queen of Winter, no one dared to question his majesty, and no one could shake his position.
"Is this the Heart of the Rock God? Congratulations, Rosaline, the mission is successful again!"
Piero's voice echoed in the palace, and his congratulations contained not only praise but also recognition of Rosalyn's abilities.
It seems that giving the power of the Ice Queen to her was an extremely correct decision.
Rosalin nodded expressionlessly. She knew that the success of all this was not only a personal glory, but also a further advancement of the Fatui's goals.
Although she has established considerable prestige among the Fatui, she understands that every success in the organization is the result of collective wisdom and strength.
In this cold winter country, Rosaline's heart is as hot as fire.
Her ambitions are intertwined with the goals of the Fatui, and they form the driving force behind her progress.
For Rosaline, obtaining the Heart of God is not only about completing a mission, but also a step towards a higher goal. On this road, both praise and challenges will become her motivation to keep moving forward.
"Thank you for your hard work, Rosalyn."
The ethereal voice came from the throne, but it seemed to come from all directions.
The desolate sunlight shone through the blinds, illuminating the queen's snow-white skin. Her three thousand strands of black hair flowed along the throne and spread to the ground.
The Heart of the Rock God flew out of Rosaline's pocket and then fell into the hands of the Queen.
After carefully examining the chess-piece-sized Heart of God in her hand for a moment, the Queen lowered her eyes to look at the lady at the bottom of the stairs.
"Tell me, Rosalin, what reward do you want this time? I will definitely satisfy you."
The lady immediately knelt on the ground, looked up at the Queen, but did not dare to look directly into her eyes.
Ever since Rustan left her, she no longer had any attachment to the world. Her only wish was to burn all the monsters in the world and build that pure and flawless beautiful kingdom with the Queen.
She asked for nothing from the Queen except to serve her.
"Your Majesty, it was you who took me in when I was most helpless. What else can I dare to ask for?"
"I only wish to follow you from this life to death, no matter what it takes!"
Madam Rosalin's words were sincere, and her gaze towards the Queen was filled with fervent sincerity.
But she suddenly changed the subject and said, "Your Majesty, this operation was going very smoothly, but it almost failed because of Tartaglia's inaction."
Hearing that the lady had exposed his shortcomings in front of him, the "young master" Tartaglia, who was sitting at the last seat of the executives and was distracted, almost lost his seat.
"Ma'am, you better keep your mouth shut. What do you mean by inaction?"
Seeing that Rosaline and Tartaglia were about to quarrel again, the "girl" Columbia, who was sitting in the third seat and sleeping on the conference table, quickly covered her ears.
These two people...
Whenever we are together, we keep arguing. I can't sleep well every time I have a meeting. It's so annoying.
"Girl" Columbia thought so and continued to sleep on the table.
……
At this moment, in the secret room of the Fatui, a playful atmosphere filled the air.
The executive officers all looked at Tartaglia with expectation.
Although Tartaglia is not as strong as other executive officers, he is known for his overconfident and willful personality.
His behavior often causes dissatisfaction among the public, and everyone is secretly looking forward to what kind of joke he will make this time.
Just as everyone was waiting for the drama to develop, an executive officer could not help but stand up and report to the Queen in a loud and joking voice: "Your Majesty, not only did Tartaglia not bring back any results this time, he also spent lavishly in Liyue City, and all the expenses were actually recorded in the account of the Northland Bank!"
These words were like a bolt from the blue, and the "rich man" Pantalone was almost so angry that he vomited blood. All the expenses were actually charged to his name?
This means that all responsibilities and debts will be borne by him.
He glared at Tartaglia and could not help but ask, "Master, didn't I warn you before we set out? I knew that Liyue was expensive, so I asked you to save some money... How much did you overdraw?"
Tartaglia looked relaxed, as if he didn't care about Pantalone's anxiety at all. "Pantalone, I know you are worried, but don't worry. In fact, I... didn't spend that much."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly froze, as if he realized something important.
Rosalyn, this old fox, it was clearly her fault, so why did she put all the blame on him, making him the target of public criticism?
He immediately rushed to the lady angrily:
"I was going to ask you, why didn't you tell me the action plan? Did you know that I was almost beaten to death in the Golden House?"
"It was you who was so eager to succeed that you acted rashly without asking questions clearly. Why are you blaming me..."
"All right!"
The Queen's voice seemed to carry a chill in the ears of the two men, and the originally noisy palace suddenly became silent.
Tartaglia and Rosaline, who were originally arguing, immediately knelt on the ground and apologized for their previous rudeness.
