Genshin Impact: Starting Guide - End of the World Qi Bao

Kevin said something else.

"I really didn't expect Kiana to be able to keep up with me! You're amazing. It seems you really are my cousin. And this male classmate looks pretty good at sports too."

Sue had only suspected the relationship between Kiana and Kevin, but now she was certain: Kiana was definitely his relative, a fellow athletic prodigy. But how come Kiana's classmate was such a fast runner too…?

Kiana, pleased with her successful scheme, said...

"Haha, good cousin, if anyone bullies you, tell your cousin, and your cousin will protect you from now on."

After catching her breath, Su asked, though she was still a little out of breath.

"Phew... Hey, you and Kiana are the new couple who transferred here today, right? Nice to meet you. My name is Su, and this is Kevin."

Sue knew that Kevin was being rude, so she had to introduce herself.

Jue Xi looked at Su, who was still able to open his eyes, and replied.

"That's right, Su, Kevin, hello. My name is Mu Juexi, and this beautiful Kiana is my boyfriend~ Su, you guessed right."

"Stupid Kevin really did put his arm around Juexi's shoulder and said something like that."

"Ah, Juexi, you're the henpecked husband Mei was talking about."

Kiana and Juexi asked in confusion at the same time.

"Huh? (Mei?) He's henpecked?" (Kiana's focus is on Mei, while Juexi's focus is on being henpecked.)

Su Wuyu is dead. Kevin, Kevin, what have you done? You've not only offended two people, but you've also betrayed Mei.

Jue Xi broke free from Kevin, came to Kiana's side, and openly kissed Kiana in front of the two of them.

"Qibao, do you think I'm henpecked?"

Kiana looked puzzled.

"Bronchiitis? Isn't that an illness? Juexi, you're not sick, are you?"

……

The three of them were speechless. Su was at a loss for words. Kiana seemed to be exactly like Kevin in terms of sports, appearance, and even intelligence.

Jue Xi then explained the meaning of the word to Kiana, and Kiana responded after listening.

"Of course, Juexi, aren't you a henpecked husband?"

Jue Xi looked at Kiana with a strange expression, then slapped Kiana's butt.

"Think it over before you speak, Qi Bao~"

Kiana blushed when she was patted on the shoulder, remembering what happened last night.

"I...I'm henpecked, I obey Juexi's every word..."

This truly shocked Kevin and Sue. Could it be that members of the Kaslana family could have such a coy side?

Kevin thought to himself, "Cousin, why are you still acting like a woman?" But then he thought, "This is Jue Xi's skill!" So he leaned in again and asked.

"Brother Juexi, could you teach me how to woo a girl?"

Kevin wasn't saying he wanted to be like Juexi and Kiana, where he could control Mei and Mei could control herself—Kevin thought that was fine, no need to overthink it. Mei was so smart, Kevin couldn't possibly understand her anyway. Kevin just wanted to learn a trick or two from Juexi to win Mei's heart.

After thinking for a while, Jue Xi whispered something in Kevin's ear.

"really?"

"real."

"Really?"

"It's true."

Kevin, being the kind of person who's rich but naive, immediately remarked, "Juexi, you're actually a pretty nice guy." He and Su were thinking of skipping class to buy tickets to Eden's concert, which was tonight, and he hoped to get two more tickets to thank them.

Kiana was a little confused.

"Eden? Who's that?"

Kevin and Sue were also quite shocked. "No way! There's actually someone who doesn't recognize the legendary Eden!" Kevin said with some sympathy.

"Cousin, you must be having a really tough time..."

Looking at Kiana now dressed so smartly, Kevin even imagined his cousin not having a good life at home, so he didn't know she was starving or cold. How could a modern young person not know Eden! The streets are full of advertisements, and every well-known mid-range or big brand is endorsed by Eden, which is a kind of commercial monopoly.

Kiana tugged at Juexi's hand in confusion.

"Is he famous?"

Juexi replied softly.

"It's alright, but probably one in a thousand people wouldn't know. Also, I told you before that she's best friends with Alicia, did you forget?"

Kiana also realized that Eden seemed to be quite powerful.

"Oh yeah, but she's so famous! Her tickets must be hard to get."

Kevin patted his chest and assured him.

"Don't worry, I can definitely get it for you. Juexi, you and your cousin come to the school gate at 7 pm tonight. We'll meet there and go together."

Jue Xi didn't say anything. Since others could get it, why not take advantage of it for free? After expressing her gratitude, Jue Xi led Kiana to find a place to eat.

Su asked curiously from the side.

"Hey Kevin, what did Juexi tell you?"

"Hum~"

Kevin pulled Sula aside and whispered something to her.

"Juexi told me to just go for it without worry, to be as persistent and shameless as a leech, hahahahaha."

"This……"

Su Wuyu is dead. Isn't this just a complete charade for a naive boy? Everyone knows that's how you pursue a girl. Su said.

"Kevin? Do you think it's possible that this is how girls usually pursue each other? He's just teasing you."

"No way, what if I'm too clingy and Mei hates me? Oh right, there's one more thing. Juexi also said that because Mei is still too shy to refuse others, she can pursue him boldly and shamelessly."

Su was pondering. What did Mei mean now? Hmm... why did she feel that this Jue Xi was a bit off?

Kevin looked at Sue, who had a furrowed brow, and pulled him close, their shoulders touching.

"Hey, Su, don't overthink it. Don't you believe in my luck? I don't think Juexi is a bad person, after all, he managed to win over my cousin. I still trust Kiana's judgment."

Su was speechless. "This optimistic idiot," Su asked.

"What should we do with the two extra tickets?"

"We can only turn to family members; it's all minor stuff."

After Juexi and Kiana left, they found a restaurant and began to feast. Seeing Kiana's mouth greasy from eating, Juexi happily wiped her mouth.

"Qibao, eat slowly, I won't take it from you."

"Mmm, hehe."

"Qibao, you eat first, I'm going to the restroom."

"Okay, Captain!"

Jue Xi was thinking of paying the bill, but when she got there she realized a problem.

I don't have any money... or more accurately, I don't have the common currency of this world, tsk.

Jue Xi went to the restroom, took out a piece of Mora from the Domination Theater, and analyzed it using her Law of Reason power. As Jue Xi had expected, the Mora was made of gold. Jue Xi left the restroom, went to the front desk, took out the Mora, and inquired.

"Hello, could you help me estimate how much this is worth?"

The receptionist picked up a piece of "gold" and examined it.

"It depends on the purity, sir. Don't you have any money with you?"

"Uh, hahaha, bad luck, I left my wallet at home."

"Excuse my bluntness, sir, even if this were real gold, one piece wouldn't be enough to cover your meal, would it? And that young lady... well, she looks a little hungry."

Juexi knew the receptionist was quite friendly; Qibao wasn't just hungry, she could really eat...

Jue Xi pretended to put her hand in her pocket, then took it out again and placed one hundred Mora on the table.

Is that enough?

"This……"

This move really stunned the receptionist. If it were pure gold, pulling out so much would be something a big shot wouldn't dare to offend. But if it was fake... they shouldn't be so brazen.

The receptionist said politely.

"Sir, I'll go and ask my superiors about this. Please wait a moment."

Chapter 117 'Gold'

The receptionist had just finished making a call to her superiors when a tall woman with long, wine-red hair walked towards them. She wore a black and gold floral dress, and the sparkling gems in her black and gold hair accessories exuded an air of extravagance.

The receptionist spoke with some trepidation.

"Miss Eden."

Eden replied with a smile.

"No need to be so reserved."

After saying that, he looked at Juexi and asked.

"Excuse me, sir, may I take a look at those sparkly little trinkets from earlier?"

Jue Xi was overjoyed. She was just worried about not having money, and now her wallet had appeared. Was it because she had been spending so much time with Qi Bao that she had become so lucky?

“Of course, Miss Eden.”

Juexi casually took out a Mora and handed it to Eden. Eden looked it over for a moment, then asked with a smile.

"Without a doubt, this is made of the finest 'gold.' With such exquisite craftsmanship, sir, may I have this item?"

The receptionist next to her was thankful that she had been a good customer. After all, with a man as handsome as him and such a beautiful girlfriend, how could he possibly dine and dash? He might be the son or illegitimate child of some important person. And then there was this big star, Eden—she couldn't afford to offend either of them.

Jue Xi said with a smile.
