Of course, Hu Tao had just heard about these things from her own employees.
Su Han raised an eyebrow and explained, "She's just a little too focused. Alright, we've arrived."
During a break in their conversation, Su Han casually inquired about Yura's address, since Noelle couldn't possibly be unaware of it, given that they belonged to the same organization.
Hu Tao stopped and looked up at the narrow and low house in front of her, her expression one of surprise. "Huh? Could we have come to the wrong place? I heard that her family is noble. How come they live in such a dilapidated place?"
Su Han sighed upon hearing this and said, "Now all she has left is the title of nobility. After a thousand years of accumulated hatred, what do you think the Lawrence family has left?" As he spoke, he walked to the wooden door and knocked hard. Soon, footsteps came from inside.
"Who? I don't remember buying anything today."
Click.
As the wooden door opened, Yura, pale-faced, appeared before them. Despite being at home and injured, she still wore an exquisite dress to maintain her aristocratic dignity.
"Why are you here?"
Yura was stunned for a moment because she didn't expect Hu Tao and Su Han to come to her house. After all, her house was usually very quiet except for Amber who would occasionally come to visit. She was even a little incredulous to see that someone had come.
Upon hearing this, Hu Tao immediately took out the comic book and flowers in her hand and said with a smile, "Isn't this because Su Han's comic book has been updated? So I thought I'd give you a copy. Won't you invite us in for a seat?"
After realizing what had happened, Yura quickly made way for them, inviting them in, "I'm so sorry, it was my rudeness. Please come in. We don't have much to offer, please forgive me."
"It's nothing, we just came to take a look."
Even so, Hu Tao was still stunned when she came in. She found that although Yura's house was small, it was very clean. The floor was almost spotless, the wardrobe was extremely tidy, and even the quilt was folded into a tofu block. Every aspect reflected Yura's upbringing.
After regaining her senses, Hu Tao exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, what a tidy house! Did you clean all of this yourself?"
Yura smirked and said self-deprecatingly, "Heh, even if I wanted to hire someone to clean, no one would be willing to work for the Lawrence family. So I can only learn to do it myself. Please make yourselves at home. There's no tea or coffee, just some water. If you don't mind, I can pour you some."
Su Han found a place to sit down and said, "We're here as guests, so naturally we won't mind these things. Besides, we had plain water every day back in Liyue."
"Ah That's good!"
Yura felt much relieved upon hearing this. Otherwise, given her current weakened state, she really didn't know where to get some drinks. If the store didn't sell them either, she would be completely helpless.
Fortunately, Su Han and Hu Tao were not picky about anything.
After the three sat down, they started chatting. Perhaps because they weren't used to casual conversation, Yura brought up official business as they talked.
"What exactly happened yesterday?"
"It's actually quite simple. The Abyss Order wanted to destroy Mondstadt through Dvalin, but my intervention caused their plan to go awry. To further provoke Dvalin, these guys chose to extract the remaining toxins and inject them into Dvalin's body. And as you've seen, the guardian dragon, who was originally somewhat rational, has gone completely insane."
Yura frowned upon hearing this, completely unprepared for things to have gotten this bad. She took a sip of water and continued, "Is there any news about Commander Qin and the others?"
"Some of them seem to have run into trouble in the Wind Dragon Ruins, but I think they should be back today."
In the morning, Su Han received a message from Lisa, so he was very clear about the Knights' movements.
After chatting for a while, Su Han and Hu Tao noticed that Youla was feeling unwell, so they got up to say goodbye.
Looking at the flowers and comics on the table, Yura's icy face gradually softened into a smile. Although they had only met a few times, she really liked the feeling of being cared for.
On the way back, Hu Tao saw many people discussing the latest issue of the comic. It was then that she realized she had been so busy giving comics to her friends that she hadn't even read it herself. So she quickly pulled Su Han back with her.
Inside the Goethe Hotel, the icy-faced witch, upon seeing the comic book presented by her subordinate, had a fleeting, almost imperceptible gleam of joy in her eyes.
When is the comic updated?
"Reporting to you, sir, it appeared this morning. According to information from Liyue, this shop owner seems to have a strange habit: he won't update the next issue until a certain number of copies are sold."
The temperature in the hall dropped immediately after those words were spoken.
Rosalind said with displeasure, "Useless! If you knew, why didn't you buy more yesterday? Even if each of the Fools in the city had one copy, that would have been enough. You made me wait for so long for nothing."
The debt collector, kneeling on the ground, trembled and said, "I'm sorry, Sir. I will immediately convey your orders."
Rosalyn raised an eyebrow and snorted coldly, "Wait, who said this was my order? Remember, you all bought it voluntarily. If anyone dares not to buy, write it all down."
"Yes, my lord."
The tenth update is here, that's all.
Chapter 87 Even Witches Shed Tears (First Update)
Once the hall had calmed down, Rosalind leisurely began to flip through the comics.
The story picks up where the previous chapter left off. Beidi Shikuan wants to destroy the Bitter Love Tree, and more details of the Moon Red Chapter are slowly being revealed, showing how Dongfang Yuechu is willing to spend his whole life helping Tushan Honghong fulfill her dream.
The witch seemed to find resonance within it, murmuring to herself, "Russtan, the pure white kingdom you've been longing for will soon arrive, and I will gladly face death for it."
If Dongfang Yuechu could dedicate his life to fighting for Tushan Honghong, why can't she do the same?
After Dongfang Yuechu and Tushan Susu regained consciousness, they began to work together to save Beidi Shikuan. However, ironically, despite Tushan Susu's best efforts, the result only made Beidi Shikuan more vulnerable.
For example, the photos that Tu Shan Su Su produced were all scenes of Shi Kuan's reincarnated lover dating a certain man.
For example, in the memories of reincarnation, there is also a scene of the lover wearing a wedding dress and getting married to someone else.
When Beidi Shikuan saw this scene, he could no longer hold back, because no man would like to be NTR'd, let alone his reincarnated lover.
Fortunately, with everyone working together, the demon emperor was finally able to gradually recall his true memories.
Once upon a time, the Demon-Controlling Kingdom was a place ruled by humans. They controlled demons with the Mother-Child Demon-Controlling Talisman. Emperor Beidi Shikuan was a slave who was responsible for protecting the princess of the kingdom from a young age.
As time went by, the demon emperor fell in love with her. The princess even secretly took him to Tushan to reincarnate and continue their love. However, their happiness was short-lived because the demons were constantly enslaved, which led to the continuous emergence of rebels. What broke Shi Kuan's heart even more was that the princess married someone other than him.
"You'll definitely protect me, right, Ah Kuan?"
Faced with the princess's question, Shi Kuan, though heartbroken, couldn't help but nod.
On the day of the princess's wedding, the rebel army was already at the city gates. Shi Kuan was prepared to die to protect the princess, but he did not expect that the princess would not only not escape, but would also appear behind him.
Faced with the enemy's coercion, the princess resolutely chose to stand with him. Unfortunately, a traitor appeared among the palace maids, and the princess was seriously injured. When she was on the verge of death, the traitor finally revealed the truth.
It turns out that she had always liked Shi Kuan, but seeing that Shi Kuan remained unmoved, she felt quite sad. However, the princess gradually realized that this was due to the difference in their social status, so she began to find a way to give Shi Kuan freedom.
The so-called marriage was just a pretense. It turns out that members of the royal family had also married monsters, and the emperor of that generation wanted to give the monsters their freedom.
The flashback chapter ends here. Rosalyn remains silent, feeling that both of them are foolish, but it is precisely this foolishness that is touching.
"So, it's those black foxes who've been causing all this trouble, right?"
The witch gradually discovered some problems. Reincarnation and continuing the predestined relationship were definitely not a problem. The real problem was those black foxes who were secretly causing trouble. It was because they used Shi Kuan that things had turned out this way.
Rosalyn tasted a piece of pastry and prepared to continue reading. When she opened the title page, she found that this volume was called: The Thousand Faces Chapter, and there was also a message from the shop owner in the middle of the title page.
I hope that anyone who goes astray will one day be able to turn back.
"Hmph, what nonsense."
Rosalyn didn't take it seriously and started reading the main text. This volume tells the story of the Niu Gui of Kongxian Mountain, a notorious womanizer who has been causing havoc in the Western Regions for more than ten years without stopping.
Although Yan Ruyu was quite powerful, he was no match for Bai Yuechu and suffered repeated defeats. As a result, this demon began to frantically absorb the power of other reincarnated demons, and he even went so far as to kiss men.
Even so, he was still no match for Bai Yuechu.
At first, Rosalyn didn't like this chapter and even felt a bit disgusted by it. It wasn't until she came to the flashback chapter that she understood the meaning behind the words Su Han left on the title page.
Yan Ruyu is a notorious flower thief, or more accurately, a disciple of Tushan. Because she was ignorant of the rules of the human world, she committed many wrongdoings, including theft and flower picking. Until one day, Yan Ruyu met the demon constable Lu Jianwen, and the gears of fate began to turn.
Although Ke Lu Jianwen was rescued, she showed no affection for Yan Ruyu and was always cold towards him. This attitude made Yan Ruyu very uncomfortable, especially the sentence, "As for being friends with a monster who abuses innocent girls and steals other people's property, I have no interest."
Later, Yan Ruyu found her master Tu Shan Rongrong and realized that she had been wrong all along, so she began to try to do some good deeds.
The turning point of the story is the Red Sand Demon Thieves incident. Ritsuwa falls into a monster's trap. Fortunately, Yan Ruyu intervenes and prevents him from being at a disadvantage. However, unfortunately, the other side has information about him and, with the power of the Tear of the Azure Sea, manages to restrain Yan Ruyu.
Faced with the power of the moonlight, Yan Ruyu was filled with despair. But what he didn't expect was that after the umbrella that was blocking the moonlight disappeared, Lü Fawen took off his own clothes to shield him from the moonlight, just to protect his dignity.
At that moment, Yan Ruyu was moved. He desperately wanted to help Lü Fawen, even if it meant turning into an ugly bull demon. He did indeed do so, but after defeating the enemy, Lü Fawen's words broke his heart.
"Arrest him too."
Yan Ruyu's smile froze instantly as memories flooded his mind. Overwhelmed by the shock, he grabbed the Heavenly Net and pierced his collarbone.
"Talismans are useless! If you want to capture me, you have to use something like this to immobilize me!!"
As she lay dying, Yan Ruyu said in despair, "In your eyes, I will always be a criminal."
Rosalyn looked at the comic book, unsure of what to say, but her hands trembled slightly, clearly indicating that the story had a powerful impact on her.
The story is not over yet. Later, Yan Ruyu was tricked by Lü Fawen into agreeing to a reincarnation and continued marriage. She thought the two would be happy, but the appearance of the Black Fox changed everything. Under the Black Fox's instigation, Yan Ruyu suddenly remembered the issue of human lifespan.
Imprisoned for sixty years, he was of course fine, but Lu Fawen had to endure a lifetime of loneliness. In order to prevent his lover from suffering, he listened to the slander of the Black Fox!
"As long as you can be happy, what does it matter whether I remember who I am or not?"
In her agony, Yan Ruyu forgot about Lü Fawen. Although she later saved him, she could only sit alone on the mountaintop, watching her lover marry someone else, have children, and live out his life, while he turned into an ice sculpture in the wind and snow.
The story ends here. This time, Su Han unusually didn't create any plot holes, but Rosalin felt a tightness in her chest. Who was to blame? If Yan Ruyu hadn't made a mistake, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out this way.
After a long, long time, she wiped away the silver tear stains from the corner of her eye and said self-deprecatingly, "If Rustan were still alive, he would probably blame me too."

Chapter 88 The Thousand Faces Sweeping Through Mondstadt (Second Update, Coming Soon)
(There will be a third update)
The influence of the latest chapter of Fox Spirit Matchmaker is spreading. Citizens who were still wary of the Dvalin incident are now completely oblivious, and the streets, alleys, and even various shops are filled with discussions about the comic.
"I thought Shi Kuan's story was already touching enough, but then Yan Ruyu came along, and I couldn't hold back my tears after reading it."
"Yes, I never expected such a story! When I saw the title page, I thought Mr. Su was talking nonsense, but I'm really impressed."
A person dressed as an adventurer said excitedly while wiping away tears.
The people around him were almost all like him; it could be said that the entire Adventurers' Guild was crying because of the story of Fox Spirit Matchmaker.
Meanwhile, inside the Cat's Tail Tavern, Diona, who was mixing drinks, was so busy that her hands were almost cramping. She never expected so many people to be drinking today. The little girl shook the bartender and said desperately, "Is there anyone who can take over for me? My hands are going to go numb if this keeps up."
Then another group of guests arrived, and as soon as they entered, they clamored for twenty cocktails.
Upon hearing this, Diona completely collapsed onto the counter, feeling as if her cat life was about to come to an end.
In regions like Angel's Gift and Deer Hunter, the entire city was swept up in the story of the Thousand Faces.
Whether they are businessmen or ordinary people, everyone who has read the story of Fox Spirit Matchmaker has been moved to tears by it, and the sense of despair and helplessness is deeply imprinted in everyone's heart.
