Miss Liuying, I'm really not a bad guy

"?"

Looking at Wen Sheng's stiff look, Keqing frowned slightly.

Could this guy have forgotten her challenge to compete? It had only been a short time...

"I say, where are your weapons?"

Keqing looked at Wen Sheng's nonchalant look with some dissatisfaction, and urged her to be serious!

"arms……"

Hearing these two very unfamiliar words, Wen Sheng subconsciously scratched the back of his head.

It seems like he hasn't used this thing yet. After all, after receiving the blessing of [Exploration], he can kill anyone he can defeat with his bare hands instantly, and those he can't beat just run away...

He has never used weapons or anything like that.

"I don't have that."

Wen Sheng told the truth.

"?"

"You don't have a weapon, so how can I compete with you? Do you think we can fight bare-handed?"

Looking at the unarmed Wen Sheng, Keqing felt powerless, as if she had punched cotton.

"Why don't we just stop fighting? Wouldn't it be nice to just go eat?"

Wen Sheng suggested very seriously. Really, he had no interest in fighting and killing. He was only interested in making money and eating!

"..."

"How about...I go back and find someone at random?"

Looking at Keqing's silence and her gradually cold eyes, Wen Sheng timidly raised his hand and answered.

It’s better not to anger your big sponsor, otherwise...

Wen Sheng casually opened the wealth store and began to scroll up and down, looking for a weapon that suits him.

As Wen Sheng’s exclusive store, ordinary people cannot see the existence of the wealth value store. Therefore, from Miss Keqing’s perspective, Wen Sheng’s eyes were wide open, and he stood there in a daze.

"..."

"Ugh……"

In response to this, Keqing sighed helplessly again.

Well... Actually, she wasn't that angry anymore. It was indeed a bit presumptuous of her to suddenly propose a competition...

Maybe he just protects himself instead of fighting with others?

So... maybe he's still a good kid?

She comforted herself in this way. After all, she was an adult and shouldn't be so serious with a child.

Hmm... It seems that what happened recently made her a little too anxious, and she even got angry with a child... It seems that she needs to take a break and go shopping on this week's day off.

Keqing comforted herself in this way, and immediately felt much better. Why should she fuss over such trivial matters? This was indeed her fault.

So, Keqing raised her head and was about to say to Wen Sheng, "Let's go eat together, I'll treat you," but the moment she looked up, she saw a black muzzle of a gun pointing at her... or was it pointing at her side?

"Forehead……"

Holding the "weapon" in his hand, Wen Sheng suddenly felt that this might not be a good idea.

After all... Keqing is a top-level "Original God", but...

Can she really dodge bullets?

That’s right, what Wen Sheng was holding in his hand was the same model as Kafka’s... um, it might be an ordinary submachine gun on Earth, the mac10.

This was something he found in the Wealth Value Store that was presentable but not too outrageous.

There are a lot of things in the first-level wealth store, but most of them are "ordinary" things. There are weapons, but apart from a variety of melee weapons, the rest of the weapons are all kinds of weird.

Firearms, bows and arrows, mortars, rocket launchers, anti-aircraft guns, howitzers, tanks...

Bala, bala, bala...

It only takes some wealth to get them, but it would be a loss to sell these things, and most of them are of no use in Teyvat.

Without a corresponding technology tree and a corresponding production line, he couldn't possibly transform from a reseller into an arms king, right?

That thing isn't as profitable as the Interstellar Peace Company's junk, it's not suitable!

He bought this mac10 from the high-end store of the wealth value store, which cost him one hundred wealth points. Although he didn't understand why an ordinary mac10 submachine gun was so expensive, Wen Sheng still bought it.

No reason, because he’s handsome!

"This is... your weapon? Where did you get this gun? And it looks a bit strange."

As one of the Seven Stars of Liyue, Keqing naturally knew about "guns". Although the gun in Wen Sheng's hand looked a little strange, she still recognized it. Many people in Fontaine used it as a weapon, but there were too many restrictions.

Not to mention those who possessed the Divine Eye, even those who didn't could block the bullet after training, but for her...

It is naturally very relaxing.

"Um...so there are still guns here?"

I lowered the muzzle of the mac10 in my hand, feeling inexplicably lost.

Oh, he has no intention of making money with guns, that's fine.

But... when did Teyvat get guns? Aren't they just muskets and crossbows? Was it after Sumeru? But he quit before finishing Sumeru and traveled through time!

"Well...there's no such thing in Liyue. It's contraband."

"Ah this..."

"But it's your words, so keep them safe."

Keqing did not ask where the gun in Wen Sheng's hand came from, nor did she ask why he could conjure a gun out of thin air.

Because that doesn't make sense.

"Oh...oh."

Wen Sheng nodded obediently and put the submachine gun into the store's storage space.

"Then we're not competing anymore?"

"You want to compete?"

Keqing glanced at Wen Sheng sideways.

"No, no, no! I love peace!"

Wen Sheng waved his hand quickly.

In the end, the two did not fight, and Wen Sheng got to eat the glass vegetables from Liuliting as he wished.

Looking at Wen Sheng who was eating heartily like he did at the beginning, Keqing had a deeper impression of Wen Sheng. Compared with his pretentious gentlemanly demeanor at the beginning...it would be better to say that she preferred this straightforward look.

Unconsciously, her eyes were fixed on Wen Sheng, and she didn't look away for a long time...

……

"Hmm... after being hit by each other's sword, they became lovers? How strange."

Miss Liuying, who was still reading a novel on the train, asked in confusion.

"..."

"?"

As if sensing something, Liuying suddenly put down the novel in her hand, and her blue-purple eyes suddenly looked towards an empty direction.

"I always feel...something's weird."

Chapter 32: Winter Solstice

As soon as Wen Sheng entered the train, he found Liuying lying on the sofa.

She was holding a Liyue novel in her hand, and next to her were several brand new novels that Wen Sheng had never seen before.

It seems that Miss Liuying went out to buy novels today. Hmm... Although he really hopes that Liuying can go out more often, her illness...

"Alas, I don't know when I can unlock something that can cure Miss Liuying's disease."

Wen Sheng said secretly in his heart with some regret.

"You're back! What's delicious today?"

Miss Liuying gently closed the novel in her hand, her eyes shining.

It seemed that she had become accustomed to Wen Sheng eating at other people's houses every day, and then waiting on the train for Wen Sheng to pack up the food and bring it back to her.

"Here, today we have a new cuisine, Liyue's Li cuisine. Try it and see if it suits your taste."

Wen Sheng skillfully handed the two lunch boxes to Liuying, and Liuying took the two lunch boxes very naturally. However, when she got close to Wen Sheng, her delicate little nose moved, as if she was smelling something.

"Did Miss Keqing invite you?"

"!"

Wen Sheng's eyes became horrified!

"You...how do you know?"

Could it be that... Miss Liuying has developed an extremely strong sense of smell while staying at home?

"Um... you can think of it as soon as you think about it, right?"

Liuying looked at Wen Sheng speechlessly. Although he did have the sweet scent of Miss Keqing, it was very faint, and it was more of Wen Sheng's own scent.

Well...it also smells good, but it gives people a very refreshing feeling, just like grapefruit, very nice.

"All right……"

Wen Sheng silently wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead. He almost thought that Miss Liuying was going to evolve.

"It was indeed Miss Keqing who treated us... But next time, you can just ask me directly instead of being so intimidating!"

"?"

Upon hearing this, Liuying tilted her head in confusion.

"You...are afraid of me smelling it?"

"Um... that's not the case, but..."

Thinking back to the face that Liuying had just approached, and the faint fragrance that emanated from her body...

Actually, it’s okay to ask more questions! (straight face)

"By the way...is it really okay for us to keep taking advantage of Miss Keqing like this?"

While eating, Liuying suddenly felt guilty again. They had only been here for a few days... How many times had Miss Keqing invited them to dinner?

"Um……"

Wen Sheng touched his chin. He hadn't thought about this too much. Oh no... he was addicted to free meals!

But there's nothing that can be done about it. Ningguang and Keqing, two wealthy women, are so generous with their money that they've almost made him fat...

"Then...how about we treat them for a while too? But...what should we treat them for?"

Wen Sheng began to think about it. If it was food from their place, it would be a bit harmful, but if it was Liyue food, it would just be simply brought back. Not only was it unoriginal, but it also felt a bit deliberate.

That being the case...

Then I won’t invite you!

After all, what he brought to Liyue was the best return gift for them.

Or do some more?

Forget it, he was afraid that Liyue couldn’t handle it.

"Hmm...it seems we can't ask for anything, right?"

Liuying, who had a clear understanding of Wen Sheng and the Starry Sky Train, answered decisively.

In that case... then don't invite me.
