Genshin Impact: Learning makes me stronger

"Yes!" Beidou nodded, revealing a complaining look, "That boy, I thought of him as a brother, but he didn't even inform me of such a big thing as getting married! When I see him, I will definitely give him a good scolding."

Beidou crossed his arms, looking unhappy.

"I think Brother Su Xun didn't tell us because he saw that we often drift on the sea and our whereabouts are uncertain, and he was afraid that it would be inconvenient to notify us." Fengyuan Manye guessed.

Beidou curled his lips in noncommittal, and after complaining a few more words about Su Xun's disloyal behavior, his expression had eased a lot.

"Humph, this time when we go back, we have to ask him to give us another wedding banquet."

Kaedehara Manye naturally smiled and nodded in agreement, but as a spirit of the vessel, Kuze Tomoya could no longer raise his glass and drink like ordinary people, and could only express his regret helplessly.

"Don't worry, Youya, I will accompany Brother Su Xun for a few drinks and make up for your share." Fengyuan Manye patted the sword at his waist and said with a smile.

"Haha, Feng, don't be too proud. I know how much you can drink. Don't get drunk after three cups, or you'll have to trouble others to carry you back." Kuze Tomoya's voice was teasing while he spoke with his sword.

"Haha, that won't happen." The boy's confident voice drifted away with the sea breeze.

On the sparkling sea, the sunlight danced and flickered like tiny pieces of gold foil, as if cheering for everyone's arrival at Liyue Harbor.

……

"Ms. Eula seems a little uneasy. Is it because of the pressure from the trade negotiations?"

Ningguang was sitting in the luxuriously decorated reception room. She keenly noticed the subtle changes in Eula's expression after she entered the room. She took a sip of tea and asked casually.

Youla was slightly startled, and then she realized that since she entered the room, her thoughts still drifted to the Su Mansion from time to time, and she unconsciously revealed something strange.

She calmed herself down and tried to restore her expression to normal. She said, "No, I'm just a little tired from traveling. Lord Ningguang, since we have finished discussing the matter, I will not stay any longer. Thank you for taking the time to discuss this with me."

Eula nodded slightly and stood up to leave.

Ningguang stood up upon seeing this and said with a smile, "You are too polite, Miss Eula. The trade between Mondstadt and Liyue can continue to expand, and both of us will benefit greatly. This is a mutually beneficial and win-win situation, and I am naturally happy to discuss this with you.

But looking at your expression, if you really have something bothering you, you might as well tell me, maybe I can help you with some of it."

Eula was stunned. She looked at Ningguang's eyes, which were as deep as rubies and knew everything, and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart for some reason.

Without giving it much thought, Eula did not intend to tell Ningguang about her somewhat unspeakable emotional entanglement.

She shook her head slightly and said, "I appreciate your kindness, Lord Ningguang, but these are just some personal matters, not worth mentioning."

“In that case, I won’t ask any more questions.” Ningguang smiled and didn’t ask any more questions. “Miss Eula, do you plan to go back to Mondstadt directly or stay in Liyue for a few more days? If you are not in a hurry, you may stay for a few more days and have a good time with your friends.”

Hearing this, Youla hesitated for a moment, and the lively scene of the Su Mansion and Su Xun's figure flashed through her mind.

Originally, half of her purpose in coming to Liyue was to see Su Xun again, but now Hu Tao was pregnant and the Su Mansion was in the midst of a lively celebration. With her personality, it would be more or less awkward if she stayed there.

But leaving like this, I felt unwilling to do so.

Seeing Eula's look, the meticulous Ningguang was almost certain that her previous guess might be true. This Wave Knight really had some special feelings for Su Xun.

In that case, she would have to change her attitude towards Eula a little.

Although she still doesn't know what her man Su Xun thinks of Youla, Ningguang has always been good at grasping the situation.

If there is really a possibility for the two of them to develop a relationship in the future, then by making friends with Eula in advance, he will have a good sister in this family who can stand by him through thick and thin.

Although Ningguang is now with Su Xun, her wives are still unaware of it, so she is undoubtedly in a disadvantageous position.

Even if he becomes a regular employee later, it's always a good thing to have one more ally.

Furthermore, if there is no development between the two, maintaining a friendly relationship with Eula will be beneficial to Mondstadt and Liyue.

Ningguang raised her lips into a perfect smile and said, "Ms. Youla, I am planning to visit the Su Mansion soon. Why don't you go with me and meet Su Xun and the others?"

When Youla heard Ningguang's proposal, she was surprised. She didn't expect Ningguang to suddenly make such an invitation.

But if you think about it carefully, Ningguang and Su Xun already have a close relationship, so it is normal for her to visit the Su Mansion.

And deep down in my heart, I actually longed to stay with Su Xun for a while longer, even if it was just for a short moment.

In this way, the only trace of hesitation in Eula's heart disappeared.

This was not something she did on purpose, but Ningguang's invitation just happened to fit the secret desire deep in her heart.

Youla nodded slightly and said calmly, "Well, that's fine. I haven't seen Su Xun and the others for a long time. This time we can have a good chat."

When Ningguang saw Eula agreed, a barely perceptible smile flashed across her eyes.

Doesn’t Eula know that all her whereabouts after coming to Liyue are under the control of her spies?

Therefore, Ningguang was very clear at this time that Eula had only left the Su Mansion a few hours ago, and the so-called "long time no see" was just an excuse.

But Ningguang did not point it out. She just nodded slightly and said, "In that case, Miss Youla, please wait for a moment. I will make some arrangements first, and then we will go to the Su Mansion together."

As Ningguang spoke, she called Baiwen, who was waiting outside the door, in and whispered a few instructions to him.

Bai Wen nodded slightly, left quickly, and returned after a while with an exquisite brocade box in his hand.

But behind her, there was actually a girl with a delicate face and capable manners.

"Keqing?" Ningguang raised her eyebrows slightly, with a hint of surprise in her eyes. "Why are you here?"

The person who came was none other than Keqing, the Jade Star of the Seven Stars of Liyue.

"Of course I have something to talk to you about." Keqing said unhappily, "I just finished my work and heard that you were discussing trade expansion with Mondstadt, so I wanted to come and see how it went."

Her eyes fell on Eula and she nodded slightly, "Ms. Eula, nice to meet you."

"Lady Keqing, I've long heard of your great name." Eula responded politely.
