Genshin Impact: My confession was rejected, so I traveled to seven countries

After returning home, Su Mo cleaned the house inside and out, because there is a detailed saying that clean up all the dust in the house to prepare for the arrival of the new year, so as to do good deeds and accumulate virtue and blessings.

As the afterglow of the setting sun filled the sky, Su Mo tidied his clothes and prepared to attend a dinner party.

……

As the lights come on at night, the streets of Liyue Harbor are filled with a festive atmosphere, for it's the Lantern Festival. The Lantern Festival is Liyue's grand annual festival, often held near the end of spring to pray for the arrival of the new year. At this time of year, people typically set off firecrackers, hang couplets, and release lanterns, hoping for peace and happiness in the new year.

Su Mo was walking on the streets of Liyue Harbor.

"Hehe, Su Mo." Yun Jin appeared in front of him with a smile on his face.

"Yunjin, why are you here? Don't you need to go perform?"

Yun Jin answered casually. "Yes, but the show is still a while away. I'll just wander around here first. It's the Lantern Festival after all."

"Is that so?" Su Mo nodded and looked Yun Jin up and down, only then did he realize that Yun Jin was different today.

Today, the girl was wearing a moon-white dress, pure and flawless. The collar was double-breasted, and the edges were embroidered with silver thread, as delicate as distant green mountains. It was adorned with knots and delicate jade buttons. The cuffs were decorated with cloud patterns that swayed gently, like the unfurling of clouds. The belt was the same color, embellished with a golden dragon and phoenix. The wide hem of the skirt was decorated with vivid floral and bird patterns, with fine stitching and vibrant colors, as if it were about to take flight.

Her hair is also different from before. It looks more elegant with half tied and half loose. Three thousand strands of black hair are scattered behind her head, and two strands of hair hang on her shoulders. She wears a hairpin on her head and has beautiful red lips. On this pure face, this beauty is not abrupt, but complements her temperament, adding a touch of elusive charm.

Su Mo had never seen Yun Jin like this before, and for a moment he couldn't help but stare at her in a daze.

Noticing Su Mo's gaze, the girl couldn't help but look at him with a smile and asked softly: "How is it, does it look good?" She turned around, and her skirt swayed gently, like a blooming flower, swaying in the wind.

"Well, it looks very good." Su Mo praised sincerely, with a barely perceptible tremor in his voice. Then he couldn't help but take a deep breath to ease the throbbing in his heart.

What happened today? You never treat Yun Jin like this on weekdays.

Just as Su Mo's thoughts were racing, the girl asked, "What are you going to do?"

Su Mo came back to his senses and said awkwardly: "Ah, yes, my friend asked me to go out for dinner with him."

"What's wrong? You look so flustered." Yun Jin smiled slightly, and that smile contained both the shyness of a young girl and the confidence of a mature woman.

"Ah, no, nothing." Su Mo tried to hide his embarrassment, but the atmosphere of the Lantern Festival made him a little uneasy. His thoughts seemed to be disturbed by the gentle evening breeze, and he couldn't help but feel a little tender as he looked at the lovely woman in front of him.

at this time.

"Ah, Su Mo! Yun Jin!"

The girl's call was like a pair of thunder coming from afar, and the passion contained in it was hard to conceal.

Su Mo looked in the direction of the sound.

"Oh, Walnut? Mr. Zhongli? And..."

Su Mo fell on the person next to Zhongli and spoke in a slow tone.

Yeah, isn't this the young master? Why is he here?

Seeing Su Mo's confusion, Hu Tao glanced at Zhong Li, then ran to Su Mo's side, quietly pulled him aside and whispered: "Su Mo, let me tell you something. This is the guy." She pointed at Tartaglia with a serious look on her face.

"What's wrong?" Su Mo asked.

Hu Tao lowered her voice, "He has been tricking Zhong Li into paying for meals. Do you think there might be some conspiracy?" Hu Tao said in a serious tone, a little worried.

After all, even a three-year-old child knows that good things like pie falling from the sky usually won't happen to him or her. Generally, when encountering such things, there must be something wrong with the anomaly. It's always better to be careful.

Besides, Zhongli was her guest official, so as the head of the hall, shouldn't he worry about her? Thinking of this, Hu Tao couldn't help but feel a little tired. Oh, each and every one of them made her worry.

Walnut continued, "You don't know. Speaking of which, he has a very impressive background. As soon as we met, he introduced himself as an executive officer of the Fatui, as if he was afraid others wouldn't know."

Walnut's tone was somewhat disdainful. "I think he's just a facade. He might be a big liar trying to steal money and food. Otherwise, why would he be so loud about it?"

"Huh? What are you talking about? Why do I feel like you're discussing me?" Tartaglia asked with a puzzled look on his face. He had just had the feeling that the little girl was pointing at him and saying something to the young man.

"No, no." Hu Tao quickly waved her hands and laughed. "Haha, no, we're talking about Zhongli."

It was a close call, he almost found out.

But fortunately, this guy looked dazed and didn't notice me. I was discussing him. Thinking of this, Hu Tao couldn't help but gave Su Mo a questioning look, as if to say what I just said, what should I do?

Su Mo couldn't help but shake his head and smile at this. This Hu Tao was indeed very cautious, but it was also a normal behavior for a person to meet a stranger. Zhongli was his guest official after all, and as the head of the hall, coupled with her innocent, cute and lively personality, she would naturally have some concerns.

Thinking of this, Su Mo gave Hu Tao a reassuring look and gently patted her hand that was holding his sleeve.

Then Su Mo looked at Zhongli and Tartaglia and said, "Mr. Zhongli, I wonder who the person next to you is..."

Zhongli smiled slightly upon seeing this and explained, "This is a friend I just met a while ago. He's been helping me with the bills lately. His name is Tartaglia, and he's the executive officer of Zhidong Country."

"Oh, Executive, nice to meet you." Su Motiao said as Tartaglia stretched out his hand. Tartaglia also responded with a smile, and the two hands were about to meet.

Hu Tao widened her eyes and looked at Su Mo in disbelief.

No, I asked you to stop him from getting close to Zhongli and expose his true evil nature. So why did you come up and shake his hand? Aren't you afraid he might harm you?

Thinking of this, Hu Tao suddenly stepped between his hands to block the distance between them.

Su Mo and Tartaglia looked at Hu Tao with confusion, not knowing what this meant.

Hu Tao, like a hen protecting her chicks, held Su Mo behind her with both hands. Then, with a smug look on her face, she said to Tartaglia, "Let me introduce you. This is Su Mo, the Tianshu Star of Liyue."

Hu Tao's action was also a subtle reminder to the young master.

This person is a senior executive of our Liyue. Don’t have any bad thoughts, otherwise you will be thrown into jail in minutes.
