"Yes and no."

Ningguang shook her head again.

"I said his purpose was simple, but... was it really just to sell something?"

"Look far ahead, focus on the long term... Establishing an investment goal that can generate long-term returns is far greater than the returns gained from a single transaction. Moreover... he has given Liyue an offer that cannot be refused: assistance from an external force, a perfect opportunity for you and me."

"what chance?"

"Ha ha……"

Ningguang smiled mysteriously, then sat up from the chair, walked slowly to the bed, and looked towards the other side of Liyue Harbor from the attic of Xinyuexuan.

"You'll find out tomorrow. Not only are Ye Lan and the others doing this, but I should also retrieve the fish I released!"

"Snapped……"

Ningguang gently closed the open window, blocking the street light behind the curtains. Only the flickering lights inside the house remained...

……

"Please! I really didn't take that money... Who did it? Who put it in my house? Someone is trying to harm me, sir! Someone is trying to harm me!"

The wealthy businessman with a face full of flesh knelt down at the knees of the person in front of him, crying and sobbing, completely lacking the high-spirited look he had at the beginning of the auction.

"The evidence is solid, and we've caught you red-handed. Your involvement in smuggling illegal goods with a foreign country is clear. Come with us."

The Qianyan Army in charge of the arrest was not shaken at all by the rich man in front of them, and their eyes were full of coldness when they looked at the rich man.

"It's over... it's over..."

The rich man trembled... his pupils gradually lost focus...

"boom……"

"Hua Hua Hua..."

A loud thunder struck the sky over Liyue Harbor, and heavy rain fell instantly.

In the heavy rain, a beautiful figure leaned quietly against the window.

"After tonight... Liyue will probably be a bit cleaner... Well, cleaning isn't an easy task."

Watching the raindrops passing through her fingers, Ye Lan's eyes were as piercing as the rain...

Chapter 27: Dark Night Hero!

"Firefly! I'm back!"

The train door was opened again, and Wen Sheng walked into the train easily carrying two large lunch boxes.

Today was really fruitful. Not only did I get two meals, but I also solved some follow-up matters. I'd better leave the small matter of catching slimes to someone else and let him catch them one by one... I can only say that I'll just spare him!

As for the other goods, he still had to bring some of the ores back and have them appraised. If they turned out to be priceless treasures at the company, wouldn't he make a fortune again?

He now has more than 24,000 wealth points left, and unlocking the second-level wealth store requires a full 100,000 wealth points!

In other words, he has to earn at least 10 billion Mora or credit points, um... that means he has to conduct two more trips of cargo?

It's not a big problem. After returning to the Star Railway World, I will see if I can go to the company to get some old protective gear. I believe that with the relationship between him and that rubbish... uh, "warehouse manager", he will definitely sell those old junk to him at a low price!

Well, let’s talk about it when the time comes!

"Huh? Where's Firefly?"

After looking around inside the observation car, Wen Sheng did not see Liuying and scratched his head in confusion.

Could it be that he went to bed early because he was feeling unwell? Hmm...it seems like I can only put these dishes in the refrigerator.

Touching his smooth chin, Wen Sheng sighed. From now on, it would be better to let Liuying Shao get out of the train. It would be better to leave the business to him alone!

"Um...you're back?"

Just when Wen Sheng was still worried about Liuying's illness, a soft voice came from behind him.

Turning around, I found that Liuying had walked out of the rest carriage at some point, with a sleepy and tired look on her face, as if she had just woken up.

"Sniff... smells so good! Did you bring back some food?"

As if she smelled the fragrance of the lunch box in Wen Sheng's hand, Miss Liuying, who originally "looked a little sleepy", suddenly became energetic, looking at the lunch box in Wen Sheng's hand with bright eyes, and the next moment, she ran quickly towards Wen Sheng!

"stop!"

Wen Sheng decisively stretched out his hand in front of him, making a gesture of no one passing.

"Ah...what's wrong..."

Looking at Wen Sheng's face which suddenly became tense, Liuying was confused.

"Um……"

"(▼へ▼)"

Wen Sheng raised his outstretched hand slowly with a serious expression, and then placed the back of his hand on Miss Liuying's forehead.

"Ok?"

"Um……"

Feeling the slightly cold touch, Wen Sheng's serious expression turned into worry again. He took Liuying's hand and sat on the sofa.

"How are you feeling now? Are you feeling unwell? Or are you cold or something?"

"Uh... no... no, hey, I'm much better now!"

Feeling Wen Sheng's earnest concern, Miss Liuying's face suddenly turned red for some reason, and she responded to Wen Sheng with some stammering. Then, as if she realized something, she spoke to Wen Sheng with certainty.

"Really?"

(●_●)

"real!"

Miss Liuying said with a solemn vow.

"Okay, then I believe you!"

Wen Sheng changed his serious expression, took the full lunch box, and placed the dazzling array of dishes in front of Liuying.

"These are freshly made, come and eat them!"

After arranging the dishes for Wen Sheng, Wen Sheng sat next to Miss Liuying, resting his arms on his thighs, supporting his face with both hands, and looking at Liuying quietly.

"Um...okay..."

Looking at Wen Sheng's well-behaved and obedient appearance, Miss Liuying's strong heart suddenly trembled, but soon calmed down and began to focus on the delicious food in front of her.

Well... don't even think about ruining her moral integrity!

Looking at Liuying eating the food very quickly with small mouthfuls, Wen Sheng's mouth corners raised up at some point.

"Why do you look so happy?"

While eating, Miss Liuying looked at Wen Sheng with some curiosity when he suddenly laughed.

"Uh...I thought of something interesting!"

Wen Sheng’s smile froze. Oh no, he was exposed!

"What's interesting?"

Liuying tilted her head in confusion, but still did not slow down her eating speed.

“Um… that’s right… that’s right!”

Wen Sheng's little brain was working rapidly, and he finally thought of something interesting before Liuying's big blue-purple eyes showed a look of doubt!

"On this planet there is a country called Mond, where the people live freely and peacefully under the protection of the Wind God."

"Wind God? Chew, chew, chew..."

"Yeah, that's right! Wind God!"

Thinking back to that unreliable god, Wen Sheng nodded with certainty.

"The story begins in Mondstadt. Legend has it that there lived a hero who hid during the day and emerged at night, guarding the tranquility of Mondstadt! No one knew his identity. He would only appear when Mondstadt was threatened, and drive out those who trespassed on its territory!"

Wen Sheng spoke passionately, as if he was recounting some epic story. He paid no attention to Miss Liuying's flushed cheeks and trembling hands beside him...

Haunting at night? Expelling the threatening monster... This...

Recalling the scene not long ago when she punched that aboriginal who tried to rob a train and sent him flying into the sea, Miss Liuying felt an inexplicable sense of shame suddenly well up in her heart...

"Because of this, the hero was praised by the people of Mond and respectfully named..."

Wen Sheng's little face became serious and earnest.

"Hero of the Dark Night!"

"Pfft! Cough cough cough..."

"Liu Ying? Are you...are you okay?"

Looking at Miss Liuying who suddenly vomited food while eating and whose face turned red, Wen Sheng was startled at first, then he quickly sat down next to her, reached out and gently patted her back, trying to make her feel better.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Are you okay? I told you to eat slowly, or you'll choke..."

Miss Liuying, who was coughing, glanced at Wen Sheng with a reproachful look when she heard this. "Don't you have any idea how she choked?"

Dark Night Hero...this name...is so embarrassing! (Silent scream)

……

"Aqiu!"

"Master, it's cold outside, come inside quickly."

"Well, I'll be there soon."

……

"Hiss, hey, Doctor Baizhu, is there really any hope?"

"Um……"

Looking at the miserable-looking "person" in front of him, Bai Zhu pushed his glasses in silence.

"I'll... give it a try."

Chapter 28 On Soda Bean Juice

"Squeak..."

"Hey hey...hey hey...hey hey"

"..."

Early in the morning, Bai Zhu, who had been busy all night, just pushed open the door of Bupulu, and then saw an active girl standing at the stairs, with her hands clenched in the air, as if pretending to shovel the soil, practicing vigorously in front of Bupulu's door.

"Master Hu Tao..."

Bai Zhu's smile was full of helplessness.

"Oh! Doctor Bai! The deceased... uh, cough cough! I mean, how is the patient doing?"

Realizing that he had said something out of turn, Hu Tao quickly corrected the mistake in his words, but the pair of plum blossom eyes that looked at Bai Zhu were still full of expectations!

"I'm sorry, Master Hu Tao, I've already rescued the person."

"Oh~~Okay..."

After hearing this, Hu Tao, who was originally excited, suddenly became depressed.

Wasn't he said to be critically ill... How could he still be alive... Could it be...

Hu Tao's eyes suddenly became more vigilant when he looked at Bai Zhu!

He turned that patient into a zombie! ?

"Well...actually, thanks to the goods sold by Tianquan Star, this patient's attributes were specially purchased from Feiyun Chamber of Commerce. After using all five bottles, the patient finally recovered."

Realizing Hu Tao's suspicion, Bai Zhu immediately explained to her.
