Wangshu Inn is always crowded with people. As a famous big inn, the business here has always been good, especially recently I heard that the chef here has been replaced by a new person.

It is said that she is a blonde girl with a cute appearance and can cook some excellent dishes.

When the news spread, it naturally attracted many customers. There was no need to say much about the old customers, but the most important ones were the new customers. They all heard that the original chef Yan Xiao was replaced by a beautiful girl, so they came specially to have a bite.

Although it was the chef who was replaced instead of the waiter, some sharp-eyed people still spotted the mysterious new chef.

"Oh, I saw it. She is indeed a beauty."

"Really? You saw the face?"

"No, I didn't dare to stay any longer. If I looked at the kitchen for a second longer, I would be chased away by Yan Xiao. I only took a quick look."

"Tsk tsk tsk, I thought the new chef would ruin the business, but I didn't expect his cooking skills to be quite good."

A few people took a bite of the food and talked about it with gusto.

Conversations like this happened countless times in a single day.

However, Ying, who was still cooking in the kitchen, had no idea of ​​this. She was still trying hard to deal with the ingredients in front of her.

"Oops, failed again."

Looking at the dish that failed again, Ying shook her head. Paimon on the side couldn't help but burp and protested.

"Although I really want to eat it, I have already eaten several plates and I really can't eat any more."

"Paimon, but you said you would help me taste it, why don't you keep your word?"

Ying put one hand on her waist, lifted the pot and put it in front of Paimeng's mouth, as if she would force it in if the other party refused.

"Hey, you can't blame me for this. I don't know where this guy came from who made so many requests. How can this be done?"

"How about...we go meet him and ask him to change his terms?"

Paimon suggested in a low voice, then looked at Ying cautiously, always paying attention to her reaction. She was sure that she would run away immediately as soon as the other party shook her head, after all, she really couldn't fit any more.

Upon hearing this, Ying looked at the amount of food that had been wasted and finally nodded.

"This is the only way we can do. I hope the other party won't make it too difficult for us."

Seeing that she finally didn't have to eat, Paimeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She had never been so resistant to food as she was now. She decided not to eat dinner today!

......

Never mind, let's just eat something...

The two left the kitchen, came under the desk, and followed the clerk's instructions to come to the customer's table. The smiles they had prepared in advance on their faces disappeared instantly when they saw the newcomer.

"Why is it you?"

Paimon asked first.

"What are you talking about? You guys are open to welcome guests. I'm a customer. Can't I come and eat?"

Jiang Xun retorted bluntly.

"Damn it, so you knew it was us, you did this on purpose, didn't you?!"

"I just heard that there is a beautiful cook here with great cooking skills. I was curious, so I came to take a look. Those requirements only show that I am a customer with relatively high standards."

Jiang Xun spread his hands, indicating that he did not deliberately make things difficult for the two.

But looking at the expressions of these two people, they obviously didn't believe it. But they had no way to refute it. After all, what this guy said was indeed right. They were now chefs and the other party was the customers.

.......

"Hey, dear Jiang Xun, can you lower your standards a bit? You don't know how difficult this dish is to make."

After thinking about it, Paimon immediately changed his tone from tough to coquettish.

"Then just order one of your specialty dishes."

Seeing the other party's attitude had changed drastically, Jiang Xun felt secretly happy. Paimeng usually liked to bicker with him, and this time he finally felt comfortable.

"That's pretty much it."

Upon hearing this, Paimon put her hands on her hips and puffed out her chest, perhaps celebrating that her stomach could finally rest for a while.

......

"You...are injured? And it's quite serious."

Unlike Paimon's happiness, Ying's eyes never left Jiang Xun. He didn't say anything just now, as if he was confirming something. After confirming it, he frowned and asked.

"Huh? Real or fake?"

The expression on Paimon's face turned into surprise again, and then he circled around Jiang Xun several times, but couldn't find any wound.

"Have you seen this?"

Jiang Xun was a little surprised.

"Yeah, I can feel it."

As she mastered the five elements, her perception of details could be said to be extremely terrifying. Although the other party had disappeared for a while, she still discovered the difference in Jiang Xun's aura.

If I have to say it, it is a lot weaker.

Of course, this was also because Jiang Xun did not hide anything at all.

"I encountered some problems, but it's resolved now."

"What hurt you?"

Paimon demanded, even she knew this couldn't be a small matter.

"Really want to know?"

"think."

This time, Ying and Paimon nodded together.

"Then add another dish, it's your responsibility."

Paimon & Ying: “.......”

Although she was curious, perhaps she felt that just chatting was a bit boring, so Ying simply went back to the kitchen, made a plate of shrimp balls and fried rice and served it.

Seeing that the dishes were served, Ying and Paimeng sat down, their two pairs of big eyes staring at Jiang Xun's face. The latter was not in a hurry. He just took a few bites of the food and tasted it a little before putting down his bowl and chopsticks.

I thought the other party's next step would be to get to the point.

What shocked Ying was that after Jiang Xun put down his bowl and chopsticks, he did not give a direct explanation, but snapped his fingers.

The next second, everything around began to slow down until it was completely still.

Only Jiang Xun and myself were left to move.

"this......"

Looking at the fallen leaves suspended in the air, Ying widened her eyes. Was she hallucinating again?

I pinched myself, but other than the pain, nothing around me changed.

"I think it's not appropriate for too many people to know what's going to happen next."

Ying was also knowledgeable and quickly calmed down, nodding to show her understanding.

After a pause, Jiang Xun summarized what happened in the arena and told Ying everything.

"I don't know how long we fought. Maybe it was a year, maybe a hundred years, or maybe one second. Time has no meaning there. Fortunately, Teyvat didn't explode after we came back."

"You, you are not from Teyvat?"

However, what Ying was concerned about at this moment was not the battle, but Jiang Xun's identity.

Jiang Xun grinned when he heard that.

"What are you saying? I never said I was from Teyvat. Aren't all my identities just made up by you?"

After hearing this, Ying immediately recalled and found that it was indeed true. Jiang Xun seemed to have never told about his origins. Even when asked other immortals, they didn't know.

Only Zhongli had said that the other party was an old friend of his, so she and Paimon had a preconceived notion that the other party was also one of the immortals of Liyue.

But I didn't expect that the other person was not from this world.

"But according to what you said, you had the upper hand in the battle with that being throughout. Why did you get hurt?"

Ying was silent for a moment and asked again.

Hearing this, Jiang Xun's expression became somewhat awkward.

"Well, that guy couldn't beat me, but he was hard to kill. So, I overplayed my hand and got myself into trouble."
