Seeker of Teyvat

Chongyun shook his head and nudged Xingqiu with his hand to wake him up from his fantasy.

"Hmm? Ah, eh, Xinyan, Yunjin, when did you come?" Xingqiu suddenly noticed the two girls in front of him.

Reach out and support your forehead.

"When did we come? We came just when you were grinning like an idiot."

Yun Jin covered her mouth and laughed.

"Ah!!" Xingqiu was socially dead once again.

Next to him, Wang Daoyi came out of the kitchen. When Xingqiu acted stupidly just now, he ignored Xingqiu and went into the kitchen to help Xiangling.

"Yun Jin and Xin Yan are here. Everyone, come in and sit down. Xing Qiu has been acting strange recently. Please ignore him."

He invited everyone into the house and criticized Xingqiu again.

Amid Xingqiu's cursing,

The group entered the Hall of All Peoples.

"What were you talking about just now? Xingqiu looked so silly. What happened? Daoyi lost to him?"

Look, look, what kind of words are these? What do you mean by me grinning foolishly? Does it mean that Daoyi lost to me?

Xingqiu pouted in anger, but when he thought that Daoyi might lose to him, he couldn't help but smile.

Chongyun shook his head. There was no hope. He didn't know since when, Xingqiu's desire to win against Wang Daoyi had reached its peak, even to the point of being insane.

Wang Daoyi also shook his head and ignored Xingqiu.

Looking at the two girls, "Look, we decided to have another competition to see who can make the most beautiful fireworks."

"Do you want to come together?" Wang Daoyi invited.

Then the two girls gave completely different responses.

Xin Yan's eyes lit up, and the fire elements around him became active: "Really? Great, I want to join in. I can really play with fireworks."

Her secondary job is a stage designer, and she often uses things like fireworks, which is one of the reasons why she is only allowed to perform in open areas at the dock.

Whenever in the market, Xin Yan's flaming stage could cause danger.

Of course, under the control of her Eye of Fire, this situation is minimal.

On the other hand, Yun Jin was a little disappointed: "Sorry, I'm afraid I can't join in."

It’s not that she doesn’t like fireworks, it’s just that she has been performing in a play recently and her schedule is packed. Today, she went out with Xin Yan, and it was her last day off before the New Year holiday.

"Okay, Xinyan, come along. It's more fun with more people." Wang Daoyi nodded to Xinyan first.

Then he looked at Yunjin and said, "It's okay if you don't have time. If you don't want to participate, you can be a judge. We will set off fireworks at the Lantern Festival, and Yunjin can give everyone scores then."

As he spoke, Wang Daoyi raised his eyebrows and said, “Mr. Yun Jinyun’s rating must be both gorgeous and artistic!”

“Puff~” The disappointment on Yun Jin’s face faded away, and then he nodded vigorously: “Okay, then I will be the referee and ensure fairness and justice!”

Wang Dao nodded slightly and looked at Xingqiu: "Well, Xingqiu, you recognize this referee."

Xingqiu had been awakened from his reverie by Chongyun: "Of course, Yunjin is the referee, it's fair."

Yunjin's level of artistic appreciation is unanimously recognized by everyone.

"Oh, but there are still too few contestants." Wang Daoyi thought about it and felt like something was missing.

As he was thinking,

Two more figures rushed in from outside the door.

"Xiangling, we are so hungry, we need to eat!"

Paimon's clear shout echoed throughout the Hall of All Peoples.

Ying followed Paimon and also broke into the Hall of All People, but she didn't make as much noise as Paimon.

She looked around the Wanmin Hall and found many familiar faces there. A hint of curiosity appeared in her eyes: "Everyone... is here?"

Wang Daoyi slapped his forehead and said, "Why do I feel like someone is missing?" It turns out it's Ying who is missing.

This kind of Sea Lantern Festival competition would be a little less interesting without Ying's participation.

"Ying, you came just in time. We were just about to have a competition."

"Contest?"

"Yeah, remember the stall-setting competition we held during last year's Lantern Festival?"

Ying nodded. Of course she remembered last year's stall-setting competition. She even cleared out a lot of debris at that time. It was just that when those Fatui asked her to buy badges, their expressions were strange.

"The Lantern Festival is coming soon again this year, so Xingqiu and I are going to continue the competition. Do you want to come along?"

Before Ying could say anything, Paimeng's eyes lit up and he flew to Wang Daoyi's side: "What kind of competition was it? Is there a dinner party?"

She still remembered that after the competition last year, Xingqiu treated everyone to a big dinner.

"This year's Lantern Festival program should be a fireworks show, so we are preparing a fireworks competition. As for the feast... we haven't prepared the punishment yet. If Paimon wants to have a feast, then the loser can treat us."

“Okay, we’re in!”

Paimon took up the challenge on Ying's behalf.

Chapter 375: God, Man, and Beast

The friends left in a hurry after eating at Wanmintang.

Everyone went to prepare their own fireworks, hoping to show off their skills at the Lantern Festival in a few days.

Wang Daoyi, on the other hand, stayed to help Xiang Ling clean up the tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks.

Of course, it’s not just about clearing tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks.

That night,

In Xiangling’s boudoir,

Wang Dao was half lying on the edge of the bed, flipping through the books in his hands.

From the corner of her eye, she watched Xiang Ling put away the rice cakes.

This little guy secretly hid something while eating, but was discovered by Xiang Ling and was being taught a lesson.

"I said you can't eat it secretly, you can't eat it secretly."

Xiangling was like an old mother, holding the rice cake in one hand and a pointer in the other, and said "viciously" to the rice cake.

Guoba looked at Xiangling aggrievedly, and occasionally glanced at the side to watch the show... Wang Daoyi, who was reading a book, hoped that the other party could say something good to him.

Unfortunately, Wang Daoyi looked at them with interest, but had no intention of interceding.

for a long time,

Xiangling's mouth went dry as she spoke, and she finally stopped teaching.

Seeing Guoba's fearless look, she was reluctant to scold him or hit him, so she made up her mind: "From now on, Guoba, your food will be reduced by half... Reduce it by a little more than half."

"Hey!!! (What are you talking about?)" Guo Ba's small eyes were full of doubts.

Why can you say such terrible things?

Seeing Guoba finally react, Xiangling nodded with satisfaction: "It's decided. If you hide food again, it will be deducted from your rations."

"Luh!! (No, I refuse.)" Guo Ba was reluctant. You can scold me, you can hit me, but you can't deduct my food!

"The protest is ineffective." Xiangling 'cruelly' suppressed Guoba's uprising.

Guoba's eyes rolled, and he moved his short legs to run to Wang Daoyi's side, pointing at Xiangling: "Lulile, Lule~ (She bullied me, you have to help me~)"

"Ha~" Wang Daoyi laughed dumbly, then looked at Xiangling's dangerous eyes and immediately shook his head at Guoba, "Ahem, Xiangling is doing this for your own good. If you were a little more obedient, she wouldn't do this. So, Guoba, it's all your own fault."

After hearing what Wang Daoyi said,

There was a look of despair in Guo Ba’s little eyes.

These two people are in the same group.

In this small room, is it true that I have been isolated?

A tear appeared in the corner of Guoba's eyes. He turned around and went back to his nest. Then...he took out a steamed bun from his nest and stuffed it into his mouth.

This grievance can only be compensated with food.

Seeing Guo Ba's movements, Xiang Ling shook her head helplessly.

Forget it, let it eat, and just deduct it from the normal meal later.

Don't pay attention to the rice cake anymore,

Xiangling walked to the edge of the bed, sat down, and lay down on Wang Daoyi's waist, wrapping her arms around her lover,

"Have you finished all your work there?" Xiang Ling buried her little face in Wang Daoyi's body and asked, her warm breath spreading on Wang Daoyi's chest.

After closing the book, Wang Daoyi reached out and brushed Xiang Ling's hair, nodding slightly: "Well, it's almost done. You just need to wait for the next thing."

"Is that so, then you will be in Liyue next time?"

"Hmm... after the Lantern Festival, maybe I'll go to Mondstadt on the way."

"To Mondstadt?"

"Well, Albedo, the alchemist in Mondstadt, has been of great help to me. I have to pay him a visit to maintain our relationship."

"Oh, that's how it is……"

Xiangling responded in a daze,

Wang Daoyi looked down and saw that the girl was a little confused. She was probably tired.

After a busy day, then educating Guoba for so long, and finally hugging her lover, Xiangling quickly calmed down in a satisfied mood, and her mind was filled with sleep.

Wang Daoyi was a little amused by Xiang Ling's behavior of falling asleep while chatting, why he suddenly felt like an old married couple.

With a smile on his face, Wang Daoyi gently put the girl on the bed and covered her with a quilt without waking her up.

His gaze passed over the girl's quiet little face, and Wang Dao felt a hint of warmth in his eyes.

Then, I opened the book again,

He hadn't read properly for a long time, and now, beside Xiang Ling, he could rarely calm down.

Time passes little by little,

Wang Daoyi was addicted to books. Inadvertently, the sky outside the window gradually lit up.

There was movement next to him, and a pair of small hands quietly climbed up Wang Daoyi's waist.

Looking down, the still confused girl buried her little face in his waist like a kitten.

Without any intention of resisting, Wang Daoyi continued reading.

Another dozen minutes later,

Xiangling woke up completely.

"Ha, get up, get up, Brother Dao Yi, what do you want to eat in the morning?" The girl looked full of energy again.

After closing the book, Wang Dao raised his head and said, "Let's make steamed buns. I've been eating bread in Xumi for half a month and want to eat something with fillings."

After staying in the desert for half a month, although both West Germany and the Kasakalian sisters wanted to give Wang Daoyi the best, the reality was that the best food they gave was just more refined bread. ,

Although it is also very good, compared with the richness of breakfast in Liyue, it is really not good.

"Okay." Xiangling stood up, washed and dressed up, then lifted the rice cooker from the small nest on the side, looked at the food crumbs in the small nest, and there was a trace of 'anger' in her eyes, "Chinese rice cooker, I said it all, Don’t eat in bed.”

He stretched out his hand and spanked Guoba's butt several times.

After waking up Guoba from his daze, Xiangling started washing Guoba again.

Wang Daoyi looked at her with a smile on his face. Xiangling...is indeed a very good wife and mother.

He could only feel this extremely rich feeling of life in Xiangling.

He smiled, stood up, and carried the rice dumplings with Xiang Ling and left the room.

You chop the stuffing, I make the dough, and it lights the fire.
