Genshin Impact: My confession was rejected, so I traveled to seven countries
Chapter 286 How can she, Hu Walnut, be so shameless?
Su Mo walked out of Yun Jin's house and headed towards Yujingtai.
The streets were bustling with people, which also marked the extraordinary nature of this day. Although the Ceremony of Inviting the Immortals has become a regular program after the Lantern Festival every year for thousands of years, the people of Liyue are already accustomed to it. But just as people die and people are born every year, the Ceremony of Inviting the Immortals, although not taken seriously by older people, is still very attractive to young people.
After all, it is not a form but a symbol, a symbol of God walking with the people.
Arriving at Yujingtai and looking at the bustling crowd, Su Mo couldn't help but look around.
He was looking for Ying and Paimon. He had told them the location before leaving yesterday. He didn't know if they were lost. After all, Liyue Harbor was quite lively today. Although he knew that as the protagonists of the main storyline, they would not be absent, but things are unpredictable, so he still had to be prepared.
Just as Su Mo was looking around, a voice came.
"Su Mo! Su Mo!" The voice seemed a little difficult to recognize in the noisy crowd, but for Su Mo, who had excellent hearing, he could still hear it clearly.
Su Mo looked in the direction of the voice and saw Paimon and Ying on a high platform in the distance, waving their arms vigorously at him. What surprised Su Mo was Hu Tao and Zhongli beside them. Su Mo didn't know why they were together.
As if noticing Su Mo's puzzled look, Zhongli also looked at Su Mo, but he didn't say anything. He just nodded lightly, as if to say hello.
Walnut beside her was lying on the railing with an excited look on her face, just like Paimon, waving her arms at Su Mo, as if trying to attract Su Mo's attention.
Su Mo waved his hand in response.
Then he walked through the crowded crowd and reached the platform through a special passage.
"You're almost late." Ningguang looked at Su Mo and joked.
"Hehe, we've made it in time. It's not a big problem, not a big problem." Su Mo was about to walk aside when he suddenly seemed to think of something and reminded.
"By the way, Sister Xiyue, don't be nervous, just relax."
Ningguang couldn't help but smile when she heard that.
"What's wrong with you today? I'm considered an old hand at this ritual of inviting immortals, and I actually feel relaxed this time."
"Haha, good. It's good that Sister Xiyue has this intention. In that case, I wish you immediate success." Su Mo blessed. Since the other party had such confidence, it would be bad for him to pour too much cold water on her.
Ningguang looked at Su Mo's receding back with some confusion. This boy seemed a little abnormal today. Could it be because he was worried about her?
However, Ningguang didn't think much about it. After all, Su Mo loved to encourage and comfort others when they encountered something. Even if it was not his own problem, he would still say a few words of encouragement. Ningguang was no longer surprised by this.
Su Mo came to the exclusive location of Seven Stars.
"coming."
"Well, here we come."
Su Mo gestured to Keqing, and Keqing nodded. Su Mo then noticed that Keqing was different today. Her usual cat-like hairstyle had disappeared, replaced by a noble lady's hairstyle. A hairpin fixed her purple hair, giving her a very noble look.
"Your hairstyle..." Su Mo hesitated to speak.
Keqing stroked her hair bun. "What's wrong? You looked so nonchalant just now that I thought you hadn't noticed. How is it? Does it look good?"
"Yeah, it looks good, and it feels a lot neater than before. But why did you think of changing your hairstyle?"
"Hmm... maybe it's because I feel a little awkward."
Su Mo nodded and didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, girls' hair needs to be taken care of, and it's normal to have many hairstyles.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the time for the ceremony of inviting the immortals was about to come.
Each of the seven stars was waiting in their dedicated seats, and the person in question, Ningguang, was also sitting in her own seat. Ningguang looked at the crowd calmly and waited, while her dedicated secretary, Bai Shi, stood beside her, ready to be deployed at any time.
Although winter was about to pass and the sun was now mild, for some reason, Ningguang felt a little restless under the warm sun. So, she picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then put it on the table.
Suddenly, there was a "pop" sound, which startled Ningguang, who was originally calm.
It turned out that the teacup in his hand suddenly fell out of his hand and fell to the ground just before he put it on the table, breaking into pieces.
Bai Shi was also startled by the sudden noise. It was a ceremony to invite the immortals, and as the secretary of Ningguang, the person involved, she was extremely nervous and her nerves were tense. The sudden noise scared her a lot.
"Lord Ningguang, are you okay?" Bai Shi reacted and hurried forward to ask with concern.
Ningguang stared at her palms, lost in thought. Unbeknownst to her, a fine layer of cold sweat had already formed on them. Bai Shi's call brought her back to reality, and she gently waved her hand, "It's okay."
Then he took the handkerchief handed to him by Bai Shi and wiped his palms.
Bai Shi looked at Ningguang who seemed to be indifferent and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
As her personal secretary, Ningguang naturally noticed that this secretary beside her was different from usual. She couldn't help but chuckle, "What's wrong? Just tell me if you have anything to say. There's no need to be so embarrassed."
Hearing this, Bai Shi hesitated and said, "Master Ningguang, this kind of thing happened before the Immortal Invitation Ceremony. It seems..."
"Huh!?" Ningguang couldn't help but glare at her.
Bai Shi was suddenly silent, stunned for a moment, then reacted and felt really regretful for his brainless remarks.
Looking at Bai Shi who lowered his head and remained silent, Ningguang didn't say anything, but just said lightly, "It's okay, but don't say such things next time." After that, she sat there and looked at the crowd as if nothing had happened.
To be honest, facing Bai Shi's reminder, although Ningguang was a little tempted, her many years of experience would not make her retreat because of a bad symbol. What's more, she herself did not believe in fate. Although there were indeed immortals and spirits in Liyue, and they did have the magical powers to predict good and bad luck at any time, so what? She didn't believe it, because her experience told her that fate was not predetermined from the beginning. Even if she changed it herself, it would be fine. She had done it before, not to mention that it was at such a time of great attention as the Immortal Invitation Ceremony, with so many people and eyes staring at her, how could she retreat!
Although the noise caused by this incident seemed particularly small in the bustling conference hall, it would still be heard by those who were paying attention.
For example, Hu Tao, the head of the Wangsheng Hall, who is almost impatient to wait.
"Huh? Look, Ningguang seemed to..."
"Hall Master..." Hu Tao was interrupted by Zhongli before she could finish her words.
"Guest official?" The girl raised her head and looked at her somewhat old-fashioned guest official with her plum blossom pupils curiously.
Zhongli didn't say anything, but raised his hand to stroke the girl's head and said softly: "Tianquan Ningguang is also a human being."
Hearing this, Hu Tao was a little confused.
people?
what does it mean?
Her Ningguang is a human, so am I not a human?
How could she, Hu Tao, be so unpleasant?
