My daily life in Teyvat as a demon

Chapter 8: The Dark Ningguang and the Panicked Wendy

"Is there any place you want to go?" Walking on the streets of Liyue Harbor, Qingchen tilted his head and looked at Guizhong.

"Hmm..." Guizhong thought about it and suddenly felt a little distressed. Shopping? No, I can go shopping anytime in the future; listening to books? Yes, but Qingchen may not be able to sit still, not to mention that I also want to walk around with him. "By the way, didn't you say you wanted to meet an old friend?"

"Uh...well, let's go to Mondstadt?" Qingchen suddenly wanted to visit other countries.

"Are you going to look for Barbatos?" Gui Zhong understood. "Come to think of it, I haven't seen him for a long time."

"Indeed, I wonder if he misses me..." Qingchen seemed to remember something and a sly smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Gui Zhong was praying silently for Barbatos. A young man in green clothes, who was far away at the statue in Mond Square, suddenly sneezed. He looked around in confusion, but didn't find anything strange. He leaned against the statue and drank cheap wine.

At the same time, in the Jade Pavilion, Ningguang called Ganyu.

"So, Ganyu, who is this Ye Qingchen?" Ningguang looked at Ganyu, who was obviously not right when she heard the name, and was really curious.

"Ah, that...anyway, Qingchen...brother..." Ganyu began to hesitate.

"Brother Qingchen?" Ningguang was stunned. Although she had heard Ganyu address that person from her subordinates, it was still a little unbelievable to hear Ganyu address him like that. He seemed quite old. As the secretary of the Seven Stars, Ganyu had seen off countless generations of the Seven Stars, and this was the first time she had seen someone she called brother.

"Forget it. He is an immortal, right? I just need to know his attitude towards Liyue."

"Attitude? No attitude. He just said that he would stay in Liyue Harbor and walk around Liyue as a mortal. He would not interfere with the governance of Liyue." Ganyu replied.

“That’s good.” Ningguang nodded.

"Oh, by the way, about his job..." Ganyu remembered what she said to Qingchen yesterday, and quickly asked Ningguang for a job in the General Affairs Department.

“I say, Ganyu.” Ningguang sighed and stared at Ganyu.

"Ah?" Ganyu was stunned.

"There's something wrong with you. This is the first time I've seen you use your status to get privileges."

"So it's not possible?" Ganyu was a little nervous.

"It's okay to give him a name. You can just arrange it later. With your guarantee, there's no need to worry about the strength. But you actually want to visit other countries as an envoy with someone else. It's wrong. It's too wrong." Ningguang shook her head. Who on earth is this Qingchen? "You don't like him, do you?"

“Hmm?” Ganyu didn’t know what kind of love it was, but when she saw the smirk on Ningguang’s face, she realized it and her face turned red. “No… No, how dare I? I’m not qualified…”

"Ah?" What does it mean that Ganyu can believe Ningguang even if she doesn't like him, but she doesn't dare to say she is not qualified? Ningguang didn't know what to say. She had never seen Ganyu look so self-deprecating. Although according to the portrait brought down by his men, Ye Qingchen was indeed very handsome, it shouldn't make Ganyu feel humble in front of him. This status... I will check the history of Liyue later to see which immortal it might be.

"Lord Ningguang, I have something to report." When everyone in the room was silent, Baiwen suddenly knocked on the door. After hesitating for a moment, he glanced at Ganyu and let Baiwen in.

"Ah, Lord Ganyu, you are here too." Bai Wen walked into the room and saw Ganyu. He quickly greeted her. Noticing that the atmosphere in the room was not right, he handed Ningguang a piece of paper and left.

Ningguang glanced at the words on the paper. "Ye Qingchen and Gui Zhong have left Liyue Harbor and appear to be heading to Mondstadt."

"Ganyu, Ye Qingchen and Gui Zhong left Liyue and seem to be heading to Mondstadt. Do you know what they are doing?" Although this question is not very respectful of the other party's privacy, they are immortals after all, and there are two of them! As far as she knows, the one called Gui Zhong used to be the Demon God of Dust. He disappeared for a while, and then suddenly appeared and became a Liyue immortal. If this is not handled well, it will become a diplomatic issue between the two countries, so we have to treat it with caution.

"Ah? Oh, he must be going traveling." Ganyu understood instantly.

"Just traveling?" Ningguang frowned, and Ganyu nodded, indicating that it was very normal for these two.

Ningguang was feeling a little tired, so she chatted briefly with Ganyu and then let her leave.

However, Ganyu hesitated before leaving, and her hesitant look made Ningguang feel that something was not right.

Sure enough, Ganyu finally spoke: "Well, Ningguang, if nothing unexpected happens, I may have to take leave sometimes in the future, and I may even work less hours a day, so I suggest that you train a few more secretaries to share the work. I'm very sorry to trouble you, but I'm leaving first!" Ganyu felt more and more embarrassed as time went on, and she quickly finished her words and left.

Ningguang almost gasped. What does that mean? Don't you want to do it anymore? Ganyu, who loves work, actually offered to reduce her workload? Although most of the work she did was not within her job scope, she had always taken the initiative to do it, so the previous Seven Stars had not added extra staff to those jobs. Now that the workload was suddenly reduced, there would definitely be a shortage of staff, which was a problem. "Ye Qingchen, huh? I'll remember you!" So, Qingchen was unknowingly remembered by Ningguang.

The wind was blowing, and Qingchen stood under the big tree, holding a shovel in his hand, knocking on the ground. "Qingchen, what are you looking for?" Guizhong held a wooden stick in his hand and poked the ground like Qingchen, but he couldn't understand what he wanted to do.

"Hiss... It shouldn't be, is there really nothing?" Qingchen frowned. After he left Liyue, he saw that there was no one around, so he quickly got rid of Ye Lan who was secretly following him and headed straight for Fengqidi. As for why, because he remembered that a novel he had read in his previous life wrote that there was Fengshen Brew in Fengqidi. If he didn't steal it and then swagger around Mondstadt with the wine, he would feel uneasy.

"So what are you looking for?" Gui Zhong saw that Qing Chen didn't respond, and knew that he didn't hear him, so he pretended to be angry and patted Qing Chen.

"Oh, sorry, I'm looking for Fengshen Brew, the wine brewed by Fengshen. Could this old guy have not brewed any?" Qingchen apologized quickly, feeling a little distressed.

"Huh? Does he still brew wine? He did come to Liyue once during the Lantern Festival a few years ago. I was working on an organization at the time and didn't have the chance to meet him. I only heard that he liked to drink. Does he still brew wine himself?" Gui Zhong was a little surprised.

"It's just a guess. Think about it, if you don't have money but still want to drink good wine, the only options are stealing or brewing wine. And stealing wine..."

"He is embarrassed to steal!" Gui finally learned to answer quickly.

Qingchen smiled awkwardly, but he silently complained in his heart: It's not that he is embarrassed to steal, it's that he stole too much and was targeted, so it's not easy to steal now.

"But I noticed a problem," Gui Zhong suddenly became serious, "As the Wind God of Mondstadt, why doesn't he have any money? No, that's not right. As the former Demon God of Liyue, you still have hundreds of millions of Mora in debt. Okay, I understand. He also became a mortal and owed money?" After saying that, Gui Zhong felt that he had found the correct reason. He looked at Qingchen with shining eyes, looking for praise.

Did you do it on purpose or accidentally? Qingchen's face darkened. You are smart if you can guess it. I am very happy, but why do you use me as an example? My case was an accident. I also have a proper job. If it works out, there will be a regular position in the General Affairs Department! Wendy is just a street kid. I am different from him! However, looking at Guizhong's face that was begging for praise, he couldn't bear to refute. He could only pretend to be happy and said, "As expected of you, you are really smart."

Gui Zhong looked at Qing Chen's helpless face, covered his mouth and laughed out loud. Of course, she did it on purpose, but I didn't expect that the God of Wind would really turn into a mortal and walk the mortal world. What does he do? I should have asked Morax earlier.

The two searched for a long time, and after careful investigation, they finally locked their sights on the big tree.

"There is a restriction here..." Qing Chen walked to the tree, muttered to himself, and casually set up a formation, which could ensure that the restriction would not be discovered by the owner within ten minutes after being broken.

After carefully sensing the direction of the flow of power, Qing Chen attacked the weak point of the restriction, and then a small tree hole slowly emerged.

"Really?" Gui Zhong was excited. "Quick, take it and sell it. It's Fengshen wine. There are five jars. It should be worth a lot of money. I think it can help you pay off your debts!"

"Let's leave a jar for him..." Qingchen opened a jar, and the scent of wind blew in his face. The aroma of wine was strong, and it was a rare good wine. After all, he softened his heart. He felt that if he didn't leave a jar for Wendy, the people of Mondstadt would see a throwing tantrum tomorrow.

"Are you so kind?" Gui Zhong was a little suspicious.

"I'm so kind, what's wrong with leaving him a jar!" Qing Chen cried out in injustice, "But I won't touch this jar, I'll keep two jars to sell, one jar to drink, and the other jar..."

Qingchen chuckled, and then he took out a bunch of "ingredients" from somewhere, including Jueyun pepper, Qingxin, mint extract, slime gel of various elemental properties, lizard tail...

God cannot be poisoned—maybe.

Ten minutes later, a bard who had just stolen a bottle of wine from a tavern in Mondstadt suddenly changed his expression and ran towards the place where the wind rose in a hurry.

Not long after, a man's desperate cry was heard from Fengqidi: "Who would steal even a few jars of wine? If you have the ability, why don't you go to Chenxi Winery to steal!"

Wendy was about to cry but had no tears left.
