"By the way, Xing, this is your pilot's license." Amber suddenly remembered something and quickly took out the pilot's license she had applied for Xing from her waist.

When she came to the Deer Hunter just now, she was a little surprised to see Eula and Xing sitting together, so much so that she had forgotten about it.

"Also, Captain Qin invites you to dinner tonight to thank you for your help to Mond during this period of time."

"Eat, eat?!" Xing's reaction was even greater than Amber had imagined. Even Eula, who was sitting opposite her, felt a little strange.

"Why, are you afraid of the acting leader?" Eula asked puzzledly.

Logically speaking, this shouldn't happen. The eldest daughter of the Gunhild family is a pretty good person, and even she finds it difficult to escape from that person's faults.

"Well, no, that, only, only me was invited, Amber is obviously also a major contributor to this matter?" Xing coughed quickly to cover up his embarrassment.

"Um, this...haha, I was too excited when I got to Captain Qin's place. I kept talking about you the whole time." Amber touched his head embarrassedly.

"Besides, Captain Jean only wanted to thank you privately for your contribution to Mondstadt and the Knights, not just for today's incident."

Amber herself belongs to the Knights Temperance, so even if there are any rewards for catching the monster bird, they will be announced and distributed within the Knights Temperance.

This time, it was a private banquet hosted by Captain Qin for Xing, and Amber and Xing's relationship had never been made public, so Amber had no particularly suitable reason to go.

"Anyway, Xing, just go ahead and don't worry. Remember to come back early in the evening."

"..."

How could she feel at ease? Qin might really be thanking her, but it was obvious that her purpose was not just to express her gratitude.

Chapter 79: Can you come back tonight?

Putting aside the fact that Qin wanted to treat her to a meal, Xing was still very concerned about the tall girl in front of him.

She didn't understand why Eula was looked at with disgust by the people around her, but with the arrival of Amber, those people's attitudes seemed to have changed a little, and they seemed to be less hostile to Eula.

It's really strange.

"Speaking of which, Amber." Eula suddenly spoke, drawing Xing's attention back to her from the people around her.

"Why do I feel like you've become a little different?"

Eula frowned slightly. Amber's appearance now was no different from the one she had seen before.

But when she sat next to Xing, Eula felt something was wrong.

In addition, there is the atmosphere when Amber and Xing are together.

How should I put it? Eula felt that rather than being ordinary friends, they were more like a higher-level relationship.

Amber is a very popular person and is very warm to her friends, but no one can be cared for by Amber like that gray-haired girl.

It's so weird.

"Different?" Amber tilted her head in confusion. She didn't know what Eula meant by different.

"Well, it's like..." Eula's words didn't continue. She was also considering how to say it.

“It’s like growing up.”

Hearing Eula's words, Xing's heart skipped a beat for no reason and he became inexplicably nervous.

"I've grown up a long time ago. I'm not the little kid I used to be." Amber was much calmer than Xing, and her expression didn't change at all.

"Could it be that Eula has been out for too long and has forgotten what I look like?" Amber looked at Eula teasingly.

"Hmph, I hold so many grudges against you, how could I possibly forget what you look like." Eula snorted and said with some dissatisfaction.

But she really felt that Amber was different, and it was definitely not because they hadn't seen each other for a long time.

After all, Amber had seen her off when she was out of town on a mission.

Amber at that time was no different from before, and it had only been a short time... She had no idea how such a change had occurred.

Could it be related to this gray-haired girl?

Eula was inexplicably suspicious and turned her gaze to her.

"Hey, everyone, stop chatting, let's eat..." Xing noticed Eula's gaze and coughed dryly.

"Yeah, Xing, eat more of this." Amber put a large piece of meat from her plate on Xing's plate.

"..."

"What's wrong?" Amber looked at Xing who suddenly fell silent in confusion.

"No, nothing." Xing felt as if cold sweat had appeared on his forehead.

……

"Forget it, I've finished eating and it's time to go back." Eula stared at the two of them for a long time and then stopped dwelling on the matter.

She had finished her lunch, wiped the corners of her mouth gracefully, and slowly stood up.

"Huh? So fast?" Amber looked at Eula with some disappointment.

She and Eula haven't seen each other for a long time. After all, Eula is the captain of the guerrilla team, and her work is much more arduous than Amber's.

"I will stay in Mondstadt for the next two days. The dragon plague is over, and there shouldn't be any work that requires long journeys." Eula also saw Amber's reluctance, and said to her casually.

"And you." Eula looked at Xing again, "I will take this opportunity to seek revenge on you, so don't run away."

She became more and more curious about Xing. Not only was this man a major contributor to resolving the dragon disaster, he also had a close relationship with Amber.

She wants to take advantage of this time to get to know this guy better.

"Um, okay, fine." Xing nodded blankly.

"Goodbye." Eula waved her hand and left the Deer Hunter Restaurant.

------------------------------

The two finished their lunch at the Deer Hunter and returned home together.

"Huh... I feel like Eula almost discovered our relationship today." Xing collapsed on the sofa, feeling a little tired.

Amber, however, had already snuggled into her arms very skillfully. When they were outside, there were many people around and she couldn't do anything too intimate with Xing, but when she returned home, she no longer had this concern.

"Don't worry, Eula won't think of that." Amber couldn't help but rub her little head against Xing's chest, "Besides, even if we are discovered, it shouldn't be a big deal."

"Eula is my good friend. Even if she knew...she would probably bless us."

"Really?" Xing gently stroked Amber's little head. Hearing her say that, he felt curious about Eula again.

"When I saw her just now today..."

Xing told Amber everything that happened when she just met Eula and wanted to share a table with Eula. She thought Amber should know the answer.

Sure enough, Amber did not disappoint Xing and told him the whole story. She also gave him some basic knowledge about Mond's history.

"Sometimes I wonder if people are going too far, but I don't know how to speak for Eula in this kind of thing." Amber said to Xing with some disappointment.

"Oh, no wonder..." Xing only now understood why Eula told her her last name at that time.

"But, in fact, it's much better now than before." Amber said with a smile again.

"When Eula first left home, stores wouldn't sell her anything, and restaurants and the like were shoddy with her orders. I often had to run errands for her."

After all, Eula is the beloved disciple personally trained by Amber's grandfather. They have known each other since childhood, so Amber will naturally take the initiative to help Eula.

It can be said that if it weren’t for Amber, Eula’s situation would probably be much worse than it is now.

"Well... maybe things will get better in the future." Xing said after thinking for a while.

She could understand why the people of Mondstadt would do this. After all, the crimes Lawrence committed in Mondstadt's history were too numerous to list.

But Lawrence's descendants should also have a chance to atone for their sins.

Of course, perhaps Eula would not call what she did atonement, but the most important thing is what the people of Mond think.

Join the Knights Templar, perform meritorious deeds time and time again, and protect the peace and tranquility around Mondstadt.

This could gradually change the Mond people's view of her.

Maybe it won’t be long before people’s prejudice against Eula will gradually disappear?

……

Time passed by little by little, and soon the sky gradually darkened.

They had nothing to do in the afternoon so they just stayed at home to rest. The two of them stayed together and chatted, not knowing why time passed so quickly.

When Xing came to his senses, there was something he had to face.

"Then, I'll leave first." Xing pushed open the door with some trepidation.

"Be careful along the way~"

Xing was about to leave for a banquet at Captain Qin's place, which was a normal thing to do, but when she thought about what she and Qin had done in the office last night - Xing felt very uneasy.

I don't know if I can come back tonight...

Chapter 80 Candlelight Dinner

"I understand what you said, but I have important things to do tonight, so let's put these tasks off until tomorrow." Qin said to the knight who had just come in.

"Yes!" After the young knight saluted Qin, he turned and left while sighing in his heart for Captain Qin's hard work tonight.

After Qin sorted out all the documents on her desk, she quickly stood up, tidied up the table and chairs, and walked out of the team leader's office.

This might be the first time in her life that she was so anxious to get off work.

I feel both anticipation and nervousness.

"Qin? Are you planning to go back?" Coincidentally, this was also the time when Lisa got off work.

Qin had just walked out of the office when she ran into Lisa who was coming out of the library.

"It's Lisa, well, there are some things to do today." Qin glanced at the purple figure and nodded.

"Important things?" Lisa blinked, very interested in what Qin meant by important things.

Because according to Jean's personality, there should be nothing more important than the work of the Knights.

She was very curious about what had happened that made Qin leave work so early.

"Well, that is... I plan to treat Xing to dinner." Qin nodded hesitantly, and finally said to Lisa.

"Oh? Invite that cute little guy to dinner..." Lisa recalled Xing's figure in her mind.

Although they only met once, Lisa has been obsessed with the gray-haired girl named Xing ever since.

Unfortunately, they never had any chance to meet again after that, and it was only later that she found out that Xing was also involved in the dragon disaster.

"Qin, can I also have a meal?" Lisa couldn't help but say to Qin.

She really wanted to see Xing again. If it were any other time or if it was someone else, she wouldn't have the audacity to make such a request.

But Xing is different, and she has a good relationship with Qin, so it shouldn't be a big deal to ask like this.

"Eh?" Qin's face suddenly froze, "But, but..."

She didn't know how to refuse Lisa, but no matter what, she absolutely could not agree to let Lisa come along.

It’s not because of anything else. If it were at another time, it would be completely fine, but it definitely won’t work today.

Because, in addition to being a nominal thank you, this meal was more of a personal preparation for Xing by her.

After all, that kind of thing happened last night, and she wanted to have a good talk with Xing.

She said she would take responsibility, but she didn't just say that to comfort Xing. She had to prove it with actual actions.

"Qin...are you in a difficult situation?" Lisa looked at Qin with some surprise.

She and Qin have been good friends for many years. Although her request was a bit abrupt, based on her understanding of Qin, the other party should not show such an embarrassed look.

"Because, I didn't prepare much food..."

Qin was lying, and Lisa could tell it at a glance because Qin was not a good liar.

"That's a pity. Maybe next time." Although Lisa was confused and subconsciously felt that there might be something fishy between Qin and Xing, she did not insist.
