Original God Zhongli BG Xiao Qinglong traveled through time

Chapter 273: Night Mooring

After bidding farewell to the immortals, Lin Huan rushed down from Jueyunjian, crossed the Tianheng Mountain Pass, and strode forward along the long downhill road. Passing the plaque, walking across the wooden bridge, and entering Liyue Port from the main gate. She walked slowly along the red walls and green tiles of Feiyunpo towards Chihuyan. Who would have thought that just as she was about to arrive and stepped onto the small wooden bridge to walk down, she saw Miss Traveler and Mr. Zhongli talking to the stone brother from Jie Cuixing. Lin Huan's heart suddenly tightened, and subconsciously pinched the fingers to perform the immortal art of invisibility. Fortunately, she was smart before entering the city and cast a layer of illusion, otherwise this living person turned invisible in the street, and it would be regarded as a haunted place.

Mr. Zhongli's deep eyes seemed to move slightly, and Lin Huan secretly said, "Oh no, he must have noticed it." But Mr. Zhongli's expression remained calm, as if nothing had happened, and he continued to talk to the traveler lady, as if nothing had happened. Lin Huan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then realized that his heart was pounding.

She moved cautiously, circumventing them, each step as light as a cat's, afraid to make the slightest sound. When she reached a distance she thought was safe, Lin Huan relaxed her extremely tense nerves.

She hid in the path around the corner and secretly peeked at Mr. Zhongli and Miss Traveler. She was as curious as a cat's claws, and she was extremely eager to know what they were talking about. At this time, the breeze blew gently, lifting her hair, but it could not calm her turbulent mood.

After a while, Lin Huan took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and decided not to hide anymore. She pretended to be calm and walked towards Sanwan Buguogang Tavern from another direction. Her steps seemed calm and steady, but only she knew that her slightly trembling fingertips ruthlessly exposed her heart that was not completely calm at the moment.

When she sat down at the table in the tavern, her eyes seemed to casually glance at Mr. Zhongli and the others, but her ears were perked up, wanting to hear what they were talking about. Mr. Zhongli seemed to glance at her casually, with a hint of imperceptible gentleness and tolerance in his eyes. Lin Huan couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a playful smile. She thought her little trick was quite interesting. Although she knew that she would definitely not be able to hide it from Mr. Zhongli, she couldn't help but want to try it. She knew that Mr. Zhongli would not expose her easily, and this feeling of being indulged made her heart instantly surge with a warm current.

Oh, Miss Ying, I really didn’t mean to hide my existence from you, but at the moment, I really can’t let you know my identity, the identity of the immortal, and the identity of the gentleman, at least not at this moment.

Lin Huan sat at a table in the Three Bowls but Not But Gang Tavern, seemingly drinking tea leisurely, but her eyes drifted to Mr. Zhongli and Miss Traveler from time to time, watching them bargain with Brother Stone. She tried her best to keep her expression calm, but her mind was full of mixed thoughts.

At this time, the conversation between Mr. Zhongli, Miss Traveler and Shitou seemed to be coming to an end. They were about to leave Jie Cui Xing and head to Mondstadt. Lin Huan lowered his eyes slightly, pretending to focus on the teacup in his hand, but in his mind he was repeatedly thinking about what to do next. Should he stay in Liyue Harbor? Or should he quietly follow along?

Lin Huan gently put down the teacup, rubbing her fingers along the rim of the cup, but she hesitated to take the next step. She looked at the gradually receding backs of Mr. Zhongli and Miss Traveler, feeling hesitant.

If I go to Mondstadt, I will definitely encounter more unknown situations, but I will also be able to understand more about the actions of Mr. Zhongli and Miss Traveler. But if I stay in Liyue Harbor, although I can't witness their actions with my own eyes, I can monitor the situation in Liyue Harbor and the movements of the Fatui. If I am not there, if something unexpected happens, it will be a big trouble.

Lin Huan bit her lower lip slightly and fell into deep thought. In the end, she decided to put the overall situation first and stay in Liyue Harbor.

Suddenly someone sat down at the table next to me.

"Ms. Lin Huan, you are here!"

"Mr. Tartaglia?" Lin Huan raised his eyes slightly and said softly, "Well, take a break here. What do you want to eat or drink? I'll treat you."

"Forget about the food. I just came out of the Liuli Pavilion and my stomach is full. It's about to burst." Tartaglia grinned, "How about Miss Lin Huan treating me to some drinks?"

Lin Huan smiled and nodded gently, "Your Excellency, it is too polite to say that."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Huan raised his hand to call the messenger lady and ordered a pot of wine.

"Have you met Mr. Zhongli?" After the wine was served, Tartaglia suddenly thought of something while drinking and chuckled, "Mr. Zhongli, I facilitated a meaningful meeting with the famous Miss Traveler at Liuli Pavilion not long ago!"

Lin Huan took a sip of tea, looked at Tartaglia's slightly smug expression, and smiled gently.

"This meeting facilitated by Your Excellency must be very exciting." Lin Huan's tone was as calm as water. "Mr. Zhongli and Miss Traveler are both extraordinary people. Their meeting will surely bring many unexpected changes."

A hint of strong interest flashed in Tartaglia's eyes. "Indeed. There are many mysteries about the traveler lady, and Mr. Zhongli is even more unfathomable. Miss Lin Huan is quite familiar with them. I wonder if she has any unique insights?"

Lin Huan shook his head slightly. "Mr. Zhongli and I are old acquaintances, and I only met that traveler lady from a distance today. As for my opinion, I am still observing and exploring. But Sir, what is your plan for facilitating this meeting?"

Tartaglia smiled and said, "You should know that I have a mission, and this matchmaking, just like what you did that day, is just a quick way to make things go further. Of course, if I don't think too deeply, I just think this matter is interesting. In this land of Liyue, the collision of various characters can always bring new opportunities and challenges. And I always like people or things that are full of challenges!"

Lin Huan was silent for a moment, then smiled, "Your Excellency's style of doing things is always hard to understand. However, I hope that when you act in Liyue, you will consider the stability and peace of Liyue."

Tartaglia's lips curled up slightly, "Don't worry, Miss Lin Huan. The Fatui are not in Liyue just to create chaos. We also have our goals and tasks."

Lin Huan looked at Tartaglia with a hint of caution in his eyes, "I hope so. However, Sir, I don't think we need to discuss too much about Mr. Zhongli and Miss Traveler. After all, they have their own plans and considerations for their actions, and we just need to provide them with support."

Tartaglia nodded, "Okay. Then let's talk about something else. Has Miss Lin Huan encountered anything interesting recently?"

Lin Huan smiled slightly, "There are different stories happening in Liyue Harbor every day, and there are quite a few interesting things. However, if you are interested, you may explore it yourself."

The two chatted for a while, and then Tartaglia stood up to say goodbye. Lin Huan looked at his departing back, his mind full of thoughts, which could not be calmed for a long time.
