Chapter 248: Wanmin Hall (2)

When the three of them arrived at Wanmin Hall, Master Mao immediately came forward to greet them warmly.

"Mr. Zhongli, Hall Master Hu, and Miss Lin, welcome everyone! Please take your seats."

Upon hearing this, Lin Huan chuckled and said, "I'm here to treat you to dinner today, and you guys are not allowed to snatch it from me." After she finished speaking, she looked sincerely at Mr. Zhongli beside her, and then a very bright smile broke out on her face involuntarily.

Seeing the slightly smug look on the girl's face, Mr. Zhongli couldn't help but chuckle. Yes, this girl was a waiter in the Wangsheng Hall five hundred years ago. At that time, she was always busy following the head of the hall, Hu Jing. Even though she later lived in seclusion in a small house outside the Jueyunjian, she never completely cut off contact with the outside world. She had made a promise to herself and the immortals to move forward positively, and she has always kept her promise over the years.

Over the years, Mr. Zhongli knew that she had been anonymously participating in the commissions issued by the Adventurer's Association. Her main purpose was to exorcise demons and protect the world's peace. As time went by, her savings increased day by day, and now she had enough financial resources to treat guests generously.

I still remember when she first arrived at Liyue Harbor, she was wearing ceremonial attire. The attire was solemn and dignified, but her eyes could not hide her agility and playfulness. When handling the affairs of the Hall of Rebirth, she was always fully focused and handled every detail very seriously.

Now that time has passed, she still retains the stubbornness and confidence of the past, and has also gained a bit of calmness and gentleness after years of precipitation. Mr. Zhongli's eyes were a bit gentle, as if he saw through Lin Huan in front of him the little figure who used to shuttle busy in the streets and alleys of Liyue.

Walnut watched the eye contact between the two from the side, her eyes rolling around.

"Hey, Sister Lin Huan, it seems that you were very powerful in the past. Even the guest official recognized you so much. This is rare. But do you have many stories with the guest official Zhongli? Tell me about them." Lin Huan was embarrassed by Hu Tao's words, and her cheeks turned slightly red. "Master Hu, please stop teasing me. It's just some old stories."

Hu Tao blinked and said persistently, "Come on, Sister Lin Huan, I'm really curious! Just tell me about it, okay?"

Lin Huan smiled helplessly, her eyes fixed on Hu Tao, as if trying to find traces of the past in her eyes. She sighed softly and said:

"I really can't help you. Actually, there's nothing special about it. It's just some ordinary things that happened in Liyue Harbor. Just like your life all along... Ordinary and uneventful."

It was indeed true, but it was a long, long time ago. At that time, there was no cute little Walnut in front of her. At that time, her family and friends were also very kind to her... so good that after so many years, those memories are still unforgettable.

Of course, the cute little Walnut in front of her is also very good...she will never make a mistake.

Hearing this, Mr. Zhongli, who was sitting next to him, looked calm. He took a sip of tea and put down the cup, as if everything was expected. He finally spoke slowly: "Don't worry, young master, we can get to know each other slowly. There are still many days to come, so there is no need to rush..."

Hu Tao pouted slightly and said with some dissatisfaction: "Hey, Mr. Zhongli, please don't keep me in suspense. There is still a long time to go, but I am very curious now."

But she rolled her eyes and revealed a sly smile, "But since Guest Zhongli has said so, I will let Sister Lin Huan go for now. When there is a chance in the future, I will make you tell me all the stories."

After saying that, Hu Tao folded her hands in front of her chest, looking like a little adult, as if to show her determination. Then, she looked at Lin Huan with a smile, "Sister Lin Huan, we have to play together more in the future. Who knows, maybe Sister Huan will be willing to tell her story someday~"

Lin Huan looked at Hu Tao's lively appearance, and a warm feeling rose in her heart. She smiled and nodded and said, "Okay, let's spend more time together in the future."

Hu Tao clapped her hands happily, "Great! It will definitely be more fun to play with Sister Lin Huan in the future."

At this time, Chef Mao came over with plates of delicious dishes and placed them neatly on the table. The aroma of the dishes was so delicious that it made people salivate. Hu Tao couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and looked at the delicacies with sparkling eyes, "Wow, they all look super delicious! Sister Lin Huan, guest Zhongli, let's eat quickly."

Lin Huan and Mr. Zhongli looked at each other and smiled faintly. Then they picked up their chopsticks and began to taste the delicious meal. They ate and talked. Lin Huan was quite familiar with the situation in Liyue and had many common topics with Hu Tao. Soon the two girls were shoulder to shoulder and chatting enthusiastically. Mr. Zhongli watched the two people's interaction quietly and occasionally participated in their conversation. They talked about the customs and people of Liyue and shared their interesting experiences. Unconsciously, time passed quietly and the meal was particularly pleasant.

After the meal, Lin Huan stood up to pay the bill. Hu Tao looked at her from behind, turned to Mr. Zhongli and said, "Guest, guest, sister Huan is really a very good person. She is just like you, she makes people feel at ease."

After listening to this, Mr. Zhongli nodded slightly and said slowly: "She has indeed gone through a lot of hardships. This time she came back, in fact, I forced her to come back. Little Hall Master, I hope you can accompany her more in the future. You have also seen that sometimes she really needs others to push her so that she can let go of her guard and truly integrate into this lively world again."

When Hu Tao heard this, she straightened her chest and said confidently, "Don't worry, Zhongli Keqing! With me here, I will definitely make Sister Lin Huan happy. In the future, we will go to many fun places together and eat many delicious foods. I will introduce my good friends to her and make her happy every day~"

As she spoke, Hu Tao looked at Lin Huan who had just paid the bill and came back with a smile, "Sister Huan, we will have fun in the future. You know Xiangling, but are you familiar with Xingqiu, Chongyun and the others? Hey, Sister Huan, next time I will take you to play with them~" Lin Huan, who had just come back and heard this, was infected by Hu Tao's enthusiasm, and his heart was filled with emotion. He smiled and nodded.

The three of them walked out of the Hall of All People, the sun shining on them, warm and comfortable. Hu Tao was still skipping in front, while Lin Huan and Mr. Zhongli walked hand in hand. Their figures walked farther and farther on the streets of Liyue, with long shadows trailing behind them, the scene was so warm and peaceful.
