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

In front of a shop, a dark-skinned young man was directing his employees to renovate the shop's facade. Many employees were walking back and forth, busy as if something big was happening.

"Hey, hey, hey, yes, you, move a little to the left."

"Hey, hey, hey, past it, past it, a little further to the right."

"Hey there, don't use your hands so hard. Oops, you went over it again."

"Oh, yes, yes, yes, that's it, take your time, take your time..."

"Good, beautiful! That's it." The young man clapped his hands in satisfaction.

Su Mo looked at Zhang Yan, who was directing the shop assistants to hang up the plaque in front of the shop, and couldn't help but shook his head and laughed, shouting, "Hey, Zhang Yan, your father is back!"

The dark-skinned young man who was admiring his masterpiece in front of the door suddenly turned gloomy when he heard this. He turned around and cursed: "Hey, damn, which bastard..." After seeing who it was, he immediately smiled and ran towards Su Mo and cursed: "Hey, Lao Mo, when did you come back? You didn't even tell your father so that I could pick you up."

Su Mo looked at the unruly Zhang Yan in front of him and said with a smile: "Tell you? If I tell you, I'm afraid I won't come back until dark. As a big boss like you, how can I dare to trouble you?"

Zhang Yan looked displeased: "Look at what you said. How could I not pick you up when you come back? You can make money at any time. If my brother is gone, then he is really gone."

Su Molu was unhappy: "Hey, why do I feel like you just want to curse me to death?"

Zhang Yan laughed and said, "If you're gone, I can have a feast."

Su Mo waved his hands with a look of disgust: "Get lost, no matter what, I will definitely live longer than you."

"Who can outlive the other? If you have the guts, try it. I've made a promise in advance. If I die first, you must remember to burn more good things for me during the holidays. If you die first, don't blame me for being stingy. I will bury you with great fanfare and then feast on your feast."

Su Mo shook his head and smiled. This Zhang Yan was still so eccentric.

Then he turned to look at the plaque, which read:

"Declaration Bookstore"

Su Mo raised his eyebrows and teased, "Why, your bookstore is closed and turned into a bookstore?"

Zhang Yan chuckled, "Oh, that means we're rich now, so we have to expand." He then pointed at the signboard and said proudly, "Look, Lao Mo, Xuanyan Bookstore. What do you think? Isn't that a good name? I thought about it for a long time."

Su Mo looked at the smug Zhang Yan, shook his head and smiled, nodded at him and said teasingly: "I am embarrassed to expose you, you must have thought about it a long time ago."

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Zhang Yan's face before he smiled and said, "Old Mo, you know me well." He then changed the subject and said enthusiastically, "Come on, come on, my new store is opening. Let me show you my new store."

Su Mo and Zhang Yan entered the bookstore together. They saw that it was divided into three attic floors. All the decorations were brand new. Red satin was used to create an atmosphere and bring good luck to the opening of the new store.

The bookshelves were neatly arranged, with a wide variety of books, each categorized within its own area. Each floor was organized differently: the first floor held martial arts novels; the second floor held romances; and the third floor, specifically placed to highlight the respect and admiration for Lord Geo, contained various Liyue literary trivia and biographies of the Geo Emperor.

Su Mo looked at the well-organized bookstore and its layout, then turned to look at Zhang Yan next to him, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes: "Not bad, you usually look unreliable, but I didn't expect you to manage a bookstore so neatly and neatly, and it even looks prosperous."

Zhang Yan scratched his head: "After all, it's my hard work, how could I not care about it."

Su Mo shook his head and said nothing more.

Under Zhang Yan's arrangement, the two came to a compartment. There was a pot of freshly brewed tea on the table. As soon as they sat down, Zhang Yan picked up the teapot and showed off, "See, this is the best Biluochun. This is the good tea I use to entertain important guests. You are in for a treat." As he said that, Zhang Yan poured a cup of tea and handed it to Su Mo.

Su Mo took the teacup and took a sniff. The elegant tea fragrance came to his nose, fresh and pleasant.

"That's thoughtful, thank you."

Zhang Yan shook his head and smiled bitterly, "You, sometimes you just take things too seriously. We don't need to be so polite in our relationship."

Su Mo shook his head and said nothing more.

In fact, for Su Mo, even if Zhang Yan gave him a cup of ordinary hot water instead of good tea, he would not have any complaints, and would even thank him out loud, because he has always been clear about gratitude and resentment when it comes to other people's kindness.

Seeing this, Zhang Yan knew that his good friend was starting to get serious again, so he shrugged and said nothing more.

"By the way, I wrote to you in Inazuma, why haven't you replied for so long?" Su Mo asked.

"Ah? A letter..." Zhang Yan was a little puzzled.

Then he slapped his head and said with some regret: "Oh, how could I forget this! You wait..." Zhang Yan got up and left. When he came back, there were a few more envelopes in his hands.

Su Mo looked at the envelope in confusion: "Well, didn't I just write you one letter? Why are there so many?"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Zhang Yan's face, and then he handed the letter to Su Mo.

Su Mo took the envelopes. One of them was already opened, and it was addressed to Zhang Yan. The rest were addressed to Hu Tao, Zhong Li, Yun Jin...

Su Mo took a look and then looked at Zhang Yan with a frown.

Zhang Yan seemed to feel guilty and hurriedly explained: "You know me, I'm busy with the bookstore every day. After your letter was sent and I read mine..." He looked at Su Mo and smiled and continued: "I forgot about it."

Su Mo looked at Zhang Yan's silly smile with a helpless look on his face. He had originally thought of sending them together to Zhang Yan and letting Zhang Yan give them to Hu Tao and the others, so that he could save some Mora. Who knew that this guy was so unreliable.

A moment later

Looking at the somewhat depressed Su Mo, Zhang Yan took the initiative to ask: "What's the matter? Are you worried about something?"

"Yeah." Su Mo nodded.

"Because of Keqing?"

"No."

"what is that?"

"Do you remember when I gave you the key to my house?"

"I know, what's wrong?" Zhang Yan looked confused.

"Have you ever been there?" Su Mo asked lightly.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Zhang Yan's face. "I've been there once or twice before, but recently, due to the bookstore, I haven't been there for a while." Then Zhang Yan became nervous: "What's wrong? Did you lose something?"

If anything gets lost because of this, he'll be to blame.

"No." Su Mo shook his head.

Zhang Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this, and then asked, "Then why are you asking this?"

Su Mo smiled and said, "I wanted to see if you would listen to me and help me look after the house. I even expected you to help me clean it. Now it seems that I shouldn't have had such expectations of you."

Zhang Yan rolled his eyes. "You really think too highly of me. I'm already too busy to take care of things myself. It's already a blessing in disguise that I can look after your house. How can I have the time to help you clean the house?"

"So, I thought too highly of you." Su Mo responded with a smile, and then a question emerged in his mind.

If it's not Zhang Yan, then who could it be?

Just then, there was a knock on the door. I opened the door and found that it was the bookstore clerk who came to report that everything was ready and we could start cutting the ribbon.

Zhang Yan turned and smiled at Su Mo, "How about we go together?"

Su Mo never refused a friend's kindness, let alone such a big event: "Of course, your new store is opening, I have to go and share in the joy."

The two smiled at each other and walked out the door.

……

There are many people watching outside the door

As the bookstore owner, Zhang Yan naturally had to step forward and speak. He simply mentioned the new store opening, name change, and expansion, and asked everyone to share their thoughts...

After the speeches, the official ribbon-cutting ceremony began. Su Mo and Zhang Yan cut the ribbon together. At the same time, firecrackers rang out nearby. The deafening sound of firecrackers continued one after another, adding more excitement and festivity to this festive moment.

Su Mo witnessed the spectacular scene of the surging crowd and felt happy for Zhang Yan in his heart: "Sure, Zhang Yan, I think your store will make a lot of money every day. When you become rich, don't forget me, your brother."

Zhang Yan laughed and said, "Look at what you said. Am I that kind of person?"

Su Mo smiled and said, "Haha, your new store is opening today, so I guess you won't be too idle these few days. In that case, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. We can get together some other day."

Zhang Yan greeted the guests while saying, "Okay, okay. Let's go to Xinyuexuan and have a good get-together some other day when we find a suitable opportunity."

Su Mo responded and then turned and left.

After walking for a while, Su Mo looked back at the bustling bookstore and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh: "Xuanyan Bookstore, it really is a good name..."

Then he turned and left.

……

On a sunny afternoon, the four little ones were playing on the hillside of Liyue Harbor.

At this time, someone asked, "Hey, Su Mo, what do you want to do when you grow up?"

Su Mo looked at Keqing and saw that she didn't say much. Then he turned around and asked, "What do you want to do, Zhang Yan?"

Zhang Yan scratched his head and glanced at A Xuan beside him inadvertently.

Seeing this, Su Mo's eyes flashed with a hint of teasing. He deliberately raised his voice and asked, "Axuan, what is your dream when you grow up?" Zhang Yan became anxious when he heard this and hurriedly covered Su Mo's mouth, but unfortunately the words were still heard by the person who was responsible.

A Xuan, who was concentrating on reading a book, raised her head with a hint of confusion in her eyes: "Dream?" She frowned and thought for a moment, then shook her head: "I don't know, maybe I just want to read more books." After that, she turned her attention back to the book and continued her reading journey.

Zhang Yan quietly watched A Xuan concentrating on reading, and a gentle emotion surged in his heart. He murmured, "Reading..."

The sun shone through the clouds, shining on the young and determined face of the boy, as if gilding his dreams and hopes with a layer of golden brilliance...
