Su Mo walked out of the General Affairs Department and saw from a distance a blonde girl in the shade and the magical white creature floating back and forth beside her.

At this moment, Paimeng was feeling a little depressed.

"Eh? Ying, it's been such a long time, and we still haven't seen Su Mo. Is Keqing lying to us?" Paimeng said anxiously with his hands on his waist.

"Hehe, it's not even a quarter of an hour yet, why are you in such a hurry?" Ying looked at Paimeng helplessly.

"So what? A quarter of an hour is still a long time. I knew that Keqing was friendly to us on the surface, but in fact she must still be resentful of me for secretly talking about her!" Paimeng said solemnly.

"So, according to you, there are no good people in Liyue?"

"Of course there is, but I don't think it's that Keqing."

Ying shook her head helplessly when she heard that. The other person just scared her, so why did she hold such a grudge against him?

However, Keqing seemed to be very familiar with Su Mo, and their relationship did not seem like that of ordinary colleagues. Could it be that they were particularly good friends?

"Hey! Ying! Paimon!"

A voice came from a distance, and Ying and Paimon looked in the direction of the sound.

"Su Mo!?"

The two of them hurriedly stood up to greet them. Su Mo's mood couldn't help but improve when he saw them. They were finally here. If they didn't come earlier, they would have missed the ceremony of inviting the immortals.

"Huh? Su Mo, how did you know we were coming?" Paimeng asked.

As soon as these words were spoken, Ying's face suddenly became a little embarrassed, and she covered her forehead and couldn't bear to look at it.

Su Mo was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Didn't you ask Keqing to see me?"

"Oh, yes, it seems that Keqing really didn't lie to us." Paimon said thoughtfully.

"Paimon, can you please think before you speak in the future? I feel so embarrassed to be with you." Ying said with a complicated expression.

You clearly asked someone to call someone, but when you see them, you ask them how they knew and what happened? Do you want to see if they can help you?

Paimon was unhappy. "Hmph, Lord Paimon's intelligence is beyond your comprehension. The main thing is, I don't know why I don't like Keqing. She's too familiar."

"Huh? What's going on?" Su Mo asked puzzledly.

Ying was somewhat helpless and explained the whole story to Su Mo. Su Mo nodded after listening and then looked at Paimeng.

"Paimon, I have to say this. You really misunderstood Keqing. She's not the type to hold grudges, not to mention you were complimenting her on her beauty. As for your familiarity, I mentioned you two to her after I came back. Maybe she just happened to see you today, so she felt familiar and came to talk to her."

Paimeng felt a little depressed when he heard this, "Oh, okay, since you said so, Su Mo, I will believe her for now."

Then he remembered something and asked.

"Huh? Su Mo, are you and Keqing very familiar with each other? From the way she mentioned you and the way you understand her personality so well now, it seems like you two know each other very well."

After hearing this, Ying became curious and couldn't help but listen carefully. In fact, she was also curious about the relationship between Su Mo and Keqing. The two seemed to be very familiar with each other when they talked about each other.

Su Mo chuckled, "I guess we are quite familiar with each other. She and I grew up together, so we are pretty familiar with each other."

"What? Aren't they just childhood sweethearts?" Paimon complained.

Growing up together, whether boy or girl, what else could they be but childhood sweethearts?

Su Mo was somewhat helpless, "You... really have nothing else to do except eating? You really love gossip."

Paimon's eyes suddenly lit up, "Oh, right, right! Eat, eat!"

"Su Mo, didn't you say you would treat us to a meal when we arrived in Liyue? Now that you're out and it's almost noon, let's go eat! Hehe, I want to eat sweet flower-stuffed chicken!" Paimeng said excitedly, and immediately wanted to pull Su Mo to go spend some money.

Su Mo couldn't stand Paimeng's temper, so he had to walk towards Wanmin Hall with them.

On the way, Su Mo was a little confused, "By the way, didn't I tell you to come earlier? Why are you so late?"

Ying was about to speak when Paimon spoke first, "Oh, please stop talking. Isn't it all the fault of that guy called Dain? He wears a mask all over his body as if he's afraid others will know what he looks like. What kind of nonsense is that?"

"Not only did he make us do this and that, exhausting us to death, but in the end, he kept us from revealing any information. Most importantly, we completed the mission for him, but ended up getting no reward at all. The few Mora we had couldn't even afford a grilled fish. Damn it, the Riddler!"

Paimon kept complaining.

Su Mo smiled without saying anything, but he understood the general idea in his heart. As expected, some things cannot be changed just by giving advance notice.

Ying ignored Paimeng's complaints and looked at Su Mo instead. Seeing that he was smiling but not saying anything, she couldn't help but feel a little confused.

"Su Mo, do you know something?"

Su Mo pretended to be confused, "Ah? Me? What do I know?"

"Then why are you laughing?"

"That's what Paimon said. I thought it was quite interesting, so I thought this kind of Paimon was very funny, and that made me happy."

"Oh, so what do you think we should do?"

How to do?

Just leave it alone. Dain? What was he doing out there? Looking for a way to restore his country? Oh, come on, the Lord of the Abyss has already appeared, and Kong is working under him. Restoring his country? Isn't that just a matter of a word from the Lord of the Abyss? Dain? Just a passerby, not worth too much attention.
