Genshin Impact, I, a weak person, am challenging myself to find a solution that will bring me lifelo

Barbara looked at Youya's peaceful sleeping face and couldn't help but laugh, resting her head on her arms.

After looking at her like this for a while, sleepiness finally came over her and she fell into a deep sleep.

But when she woke up again——

The light in the room was dim. There was a piece of bread with a bite taken out of it on the table nearby, but there was no sign of Youya's iconic wheelchair.

She was sleeping on Youya's bed. She could still smell the faint fragrance of her hair lingering on the pillow. She sat up from the bed.

A little lonely evening breeze blew into the room, as if passing through the void in her heart, amplifying certain emotions.

Barbara felt a sense of panic and loneliness.

And difficult questions to answer.

Where did Youya go?

Chapter 33: Awakening from a Beautiful Dream

Barbara looked around the room and found only a letter on the table with a few brief words written on it.

"To Barbara,

I'm sorry to leave without saying goodbye in this way, but things happened suddenly. A major event occurred in the Lawrence tribe, requiring all members of the tribe in Mond to return to the settlement.

Even I am no exception, but please don't worry about me. I believe there will be a chance to meet Barbara again in the future.

Please allow me to complete the unfinished idol promise with you then.

——Your apologetic friend, Yua Lawrence.

The handwriting was beautiful and neat, which matched the impression she gave people, but the information revealed between the lines made Barbara feel a little flustered.

What kind of thing would force Youya, who was still a patient, to rush back? During this period, she slept very soundly and was completely unaware of the changes in the outside world.

Barbara blamed herself for being too lax and rushed to Mrs. Maria to find out the truth.

During this period, she also met Klips's adopted son, Kaia.

However, the two of them did not know each other, they were just acquaintances and soon missed each other.

Kaia just glanced at her back as she was eager to leave, thought for a moment, and then took off the bandage on his arm.

Since the target of the mission has left, there is naturally no reason for him to stay here.

However, the sudden action of the Lawrence family really made him a little suspicious.

Although this group of people are just a bunch of fools who daydream about overthrowing the rule of Mondstadt, they are not all fools.

At least the Eula Lawrence he saw last time was obviously different from that group of people.

Although still young, as the eldest daughter she also has the right to speak, and her tribesmen will not go against her opinions unless necessary.

Then, the order to take Youya Lawrence away by directly overriding her thoughts must have been given by the patriarch.

...But, what kind of event must a little girl who can't even stand up participate in?

Kaiya narrowed his eyes, some guesses arose in his mind.

On the other side, Barbara, who had rushed to the door of Lady Maria, forgot the etiquette she had learned in the past and turned the doorknob and walked in, shouting "Oh no, Lady Maria!"

But besides Lady Maria, there was also her father Simon Page.

Simon Page frowned slightly at his daughter's disrespectful behavior, stood up from his seat and said seriously: "Barbara, have you forgotten what the etiquette teacher taught you?"

"I'm sorry... Father, and Mrs. Maria, I just..." It was the first time that Barbara was scolded by her father in such a harsh tone. Her already panicked heart trembled even more, and she could only lower her head and apologize.

"Okay, Cardinal. Don't be so harsh on the child. We all know why Barbara is here, right?" Lady Maria said in a gentle voice.

"…It is precisely because I know this that I am disappointed with my daughter's panic-stricken behavior."

Simon Page turned around and bowed, apologizing to Lady Maria.

"Please forgive Madam Maria for her disrespect. I am also partially responsible for this matter."

"That's not necessary, Cardinal. We are colleagues and devout believers in the God of Wind. We should face up to and correct minor mistakes instead of questioning and being stubborn."

Mrs. Maria just smiled gently and then asked Barbara why she came.

"So, Barbara. Do you have any questions?"

Simon Page seemed to have something to say about this, but when he saw the tears flashing on his daughter's cheek, he fell silent.

"...I, I...want to ask about Yuya..."

There was a hint of tears in the girl's voice, her cute little face was buried deeply, and she didn't dare to look her father in the eye. She was afraid to see more disappointment in her eyes.

And the disapproval of her precious friendship...

"Good child, this is not a crime that you should bow your head to." Mrs. Maria stood up from her seat, then came to squat beside Barbara, gently wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and comforted her softly: "Don't worry, I will answer your doubts."

Barbara raised her head after hearing this, and the two saw her crying like a kitten. Simon Page, as a father, felt even more remorseful and blamed himself. He knelt down on one knee beside Barbara and reached out to hug her.

But Barbara took a step back and hid behind Mrs. Maria, which made his hand that was stretched out in the air freeze.

Mrs. Maria, who saw this, naturally did not sit idly by. Instead, she gently rubbed her head and said softly, "...I will not refuse to hug you, Barbara. But this is not your father's fault. He heard about this and was worried about whether you would be too sad, so he hurried to discuss it with me."

Simon Page was stunned when his thoughts were exposed by her. He then coughed naturally and prepared to stand up again.

But this time, the daughter did not resist him. Instead, she took the initiative to hold his hand and apologized to him in a soft voice with some guilt.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have distrusted Dad..."

"...In public, you should call me Cardinal or Mr. Butler."

Simon Page held her hand and continued talking seriously, but quickly changed the subject.

"But this time, I was also wrong, so I have no right to judge Barbara's mistakes. Let's confess to Lord Wind God together in the evening and promise to change our ways."

"Yeah, yeah!" Barbara burst into laughter, and her father also smiled.

Witnessing the reunion between father and daughter, Lady Maria returned to her seat and then went back to the previous topic.

"Well, since Barbara is confused about this, I will explain what I know and what I can tell you, but please also remember what we taught in the first lesson."

"Please tell me with confidence that I will definitely abide by the Convention of Prayer Ministers."

This secret agreement is an agreement that every West Wind Church healer must sign. The general content is actually to treat patients without any selfish motives and treat everyone equally. They should not refuse to treat or treat patients perfunctorily based on their wealth, poverty, or whether they believe in the wind god.

The article records in detail various confidentiality matters concerning the patient's privacy, and strictly prohibits therapists from taking advantage of this period to obtain other people's privacy or selling it to others.

"Very good. I believe in your determination to protect your friend's secret—"

Mrs. Maria looked at her with appreciation, then looked at Simon Page and spoke.

"Ms. Youya came to check out at 4pm. After paying the fee, she was taken away by her proxy guardian."

"…This happened two hours after I fell asleep."

Barbara murmured.

"But what's the reason? Youya's legs haven't recovered yet..."

"Although I also hold this view, unfortunately, her acting guardian believes that Ms. Youya has recovered from the condition for which she was admitted to the hospital and is conscious, and she has every reason to be discharged.

The legs are a congenital disease, and coupled with our inability... the Lawrence family refuses to continue paying such expensive medical fees for a disease that cannot be cured."

"You're lying—Yuya's medical fee is clearly...!"

Barbara felt a little angry, but when she saw her father's disapproving look, she quickly covered her mouth and did not continue to disclose her friend's privacy. She just clenched her fists.

at the same time--

Lawrence's house.

Chapter 34 Puzzles and Questions

The Lawrence settlement was not far from Mond City. Although they were driven out at the beginning, they were not killed, and were allowed to settle down within the patrol area.

At first, on the one hand, it was for surveillance to prevent Lawrence from making a comeback, and on the other hand, there were many monsters in the wild area. If they were really left alone, it would be estimated that this group of people would be fed to the wolves in a few days.

If forced into a corner, they will definitely try every possible means to escape back to Mondstadt, causing even greater chaos and turmoil.

For various reasons, Lawrence's settlement has been left operating like this. Patrolling knights will occasionally make a couple of turns, but they will not take the initiative to help eliminate danger. They are more likely to perform surveillance duties.

However, due to the lack of in-depth investigation, no one knows what these nobles are secretly planning.

It was not until the current Grand Commander Falga took office that Lawrence people were allowed to enter the city, but he did not interfere with their transactions and allowed people not to sell things to them.

But for these Lawrence people who have been holding back for so long, that is a great opportunity!

After arriving at the Mondstadt Square with a proud attitude and issuing the "Lawrence Declaration", he successfully earned a prison sentence.

Therefore, although there was a stir at the time, due to Falga's high reputation, the incident only caused a wave but did not subside. And not surprisingly, the Lawrence group also took the opportunity to tell some classic jokes such as the Knights' dictatorship and the church's accomplices, and the joke version is still being updated today.

Because this group of people would come here regularly to speak out, the residents had become accustomed to their style and started a new daily routine in the Liberty City.

For a while, the internal security of Mondstadt actually improved a lot. Everyone vented their anger, and Lawrence felt that sooner or later he would be able to turn things around and revive. The Grand Commander could more accurately obtain their first-hand intelligence.

A better tomorrow is just around the corner.

Closer to home.

Youya was sitting in a wheelchair at the moment. The mountain roads in the wild were different from those in the city. It was very difficult to walk on them, and there were bumps all over the place.

But fortunately, this group of people still have some conscience. No, it should be said that they take too much care of her... Not only did they lay a thick cushion for her, but they also showed concern and care for her.

It looks suspicious no matter how you look at it... Is he planning to sell himself out?

For some reason, she felt a sense of crisis.

Therefore, considering that her life was at stake, Youya started to find out everything, and the Lawrence man who was responsible for bringing her back looked and had the same personality as the "vain man" in "The Little Prince".

They were very pleased with the praise from the little girl and also revealed a lot of information to her.

For example, even the eldest daughter of the tribe, Eula, was not aware of this matter. It was a task specially assigned to him by the tribe leader.

Although he followed it up with a lot of self-praising and exaggerated actions, and even issued a declaration of independence such as "I must be the next Lawrence patriarch."

After being safely sent back to the Lawrence settlement, it was already late.

Youya thought she would be taken directly back to her room, but was taken by a pair of maids to the main castle, which was usually not allowed to be approached. Although the appearance was shabby, the interior was 70% new.

I don’t know how these people can live in a nice big house even though they are in such a bad state.

Youya, who kept muttering to herself, tried to look around secretly, but did not find Sister Youla, as if the people in the tribe deliberately did not let them meet.

After passing through the luxurious lobby, the corridors and furnishings inside became much more dilapidated, probably because they were soaked by rain and had not been repaired for a long time. The wooden floor of the corridor creaked when you walked on it, and the potted plants placed at the door of the room looked like they were about to wither.

However, the maid who was accompanying her did not stop, but walked straight into the darker interior, which made people feel nervous and uneasy.

Youya asked this question from the bottom of her heart, with a sincere tone.

"...Um, maid sister, where are we going?"

It was probably the first time that the two maids heard Lawrence’s people speak human language. They were obviously stunned for a moment before they reacted.

The slightly older maid simply replied with a straight face, "Go to the dressing room."

"…Is there going to be a party in the clan?"

Youya’s little head started to work, trying to think of the most likely way to escape.

As expected, the maid gave her the answer she least wanted to hear.

"We only know that the owner of the house will entertain guests from Zhidong in the evening. Please don't ask for details, Miss Youya."

After saying this, the maids quickened their pace and brought her to a room filled with all kinds of women's dresses, as well as makeup tools such as dressing mirrors and rouge.

Without waiting for Youya to speak, they began to skillfully take off her clothes and change her into a dress for her performance in the evening.

On the top floor of the castle, Eula Lawrence, with a grim face, knocked hard on the door of the master's room.

There was a noise from inside, and then a maid with slightly disheveled clothes opened the door, covered her face and left.

The smell of male and female body fluids mixed with perfume coming from the room was nauseating. Eula didn't even want to step in. She just asked sternly from a distance through the door.

"Why do you do this?"

"...Watch your tone, Eula."

The middle-aged man sitting in the main seat simply responded lightly.

"I am the clan leader. You haven't obtained the Seal of Solid Ice yet, so it's too early for you to yell at me."
