Genshin Impact: I wrote the plot into a novel to spoil the future

"Huh?" Charlotte exclaimed.

Do you want to change clothes here? In front of me?

Is that inappropriate? Should I close my eyes or peek?

"?"

Lin Qiu was completely confused. "Don't talk nonsense in front of the reporters!"

This outfit doesn't look like it's meant for me at all.

If I actually wore that, wouldn't it be too much of an eyesore?

Although we are both water-based and named Autumn, I am different from Xingqiu; I am not a cute boy.

If you have this kind of fetish, I'll have Chongyun and Xingqiu wear it and take pictures for you when I go back to Liyue.

Or is it that Chiori just enjoys seeing 180cm tall muscular men in JK uniforms calling out "Onii-chan"? Is that what she finds disgusting?

"Charlotte, don't misunderstand, I don't have any special fetishes. This outfit isn't for me," Lin Qiu explained.

He was afraid that tomorrow the whole of Fontainebleau would know he was a cross-dresser.

Charlotte covered her mouth and chuckled; of course, she wouldn't take such a joke seriously.

What surprised me just now was that I thought Lin Qiu was going to set an example and try it on.

It's not that I thought Lin Qiu was a cross-dresser.

Seeing Lin Qiu's embarrassed look, a barely perceptible smile appeared on Qianzhi's lips.

"Just kidding, I don't want to see you wearing this outfit either."

"So have you decided who you want to wear it?"

"We need to find a better model. It would be a shame if such a nice dress didn't have a good model to complement it at Fashion Week."

Although Chiori looks aloof, she is not a cold and aloof person.

Her way of speaking is completely different from that of a truly aloof person like Clarinde.

"Fashion Week?" Lin Qiu keenly caught the key word.

"Yes, didn't you ask me to design this outfit for Fashion Week?"

"Well, although I'm not a professional in fashion design, I feel this could be a new trend, and it's worth reporting."

Charlotte focused her attention on the JK uniform and commented.

Judging from this, there might be some big news at the next fashion week.

This is a new trend, and there are so many people interested in it.

Chiori nodded in agreement.

Although this outfit is not as glamorous as her designs, it is simple and beautiful, and has its own charm.

Finding a good model to showcase the charm of the clothing might just become a new trend.

"So, is the model Navia?" Chiori asked.

In her opinion, the person Lin Qiu was closest to was Navia.

Moreover, Navia's looks and figure are both top-notch, which perfectly complements the charm of this outfit.

Lin Qiu's first thought was Navia, naturally because they were the closest of friends.

If Lin Qiu were to ask for a favor, the other party would definitely not refuse.

But after thinking about it, Lin Qiu felt it wasn't appropriate.

Navia's blonde heiress aura makes her look arrogant, so she should wear more elegant clothes.

Even if you're wearing a JK uniform, it should be white and yellow or black, not this dark blue one in your hand.

If we're talking about the most suitable person for this set... without a doubt, it's Funinna.

After all, Lin Qiu initially chose the colors based on Fu Ningna's outfit.

He just doesn't know Funina yet, so he didn't think of Funina when he was looking for a model.

"I'll think about it again."

Chiori nodded without saying anything, skipping over the topic.

"And what about the next design?"

Next chapter? I need to write a novel, train my elemental powers, and go to sea once a week... to find Vashj's factory.

Now you want me to draw design drafts for you? You're treating me like an animal.

"I'll definitely do it next time," Lin Qiu replied dismissively.

Chiori didn't understand what "next time is definitely" meant, and assumed that Lin Qiu meant it for sure, so she stopped worrying about it.

"So what brings you here?" Chiori remembered that Lin Qiu had initially said he was looking for her.

Lin Qiu nodded and said, "I'm planning to throw a party. Guess who hasn't been invited yet?"

"I?"

"No, it's Navia. Let's go find her together."

The three of them set off to find Navia, while Clarinde returned to Moman Palace.

"You mean, he likes to eat fish-themed snacks?" Funina asked, puzzled.

A foreigner actually likes this dish? Is it really that authentic?

Claurind nodded in agreement, "That's what he said himself."

"Is that so? Okay, I understand."

Behind them, Navelette was working with her head down.

He naturally overheard Funina and the others' conversation, but he didn't take it to heart.

He was somewhat curious as to why Frynn would inquire about the preferences of a Liyue person.

But he wasn't the kind of dragon who liked to meddle; he just quietly worked from his seat.

Navelette was unaware that Lin Qiu had written a book of prophecy.

In his eyes, Lin Qiu was just a foreigner who hadn't broken the law, so he didn't pay any attention to him.

Fu Ningna secretly planned to find an opportunity to invite Lin Qiu to her tea party.

We'll prepare a fish-themed chanting party for him then; he'll be very surprised.

Once you've established a good relationship, you can ask the other person about the Fontaine prophecy.

Character Voice Lines - Chiori: Regarding Lin Qiu's Costume Design

"Interesting ideas are not about the ingenuity of clothing design, but about the imagination that brings something from nothing."

Chapter 27 The Young Master of the Northern Bank

In Liyue, inside the Crescent Moon Pavilion, Dardaria and Zhongli sat together in a luxurious private room.

“Mr. Zhongli, let me get straight to the point.”

"You are the most knowledgeable Liyue person I know. Do you know Qiu Cheng, the author of 'Teyvat Chronicles'?"

Tartaglia chose to ask Zhongli because Lin Qiu's pen name sounded like a name a Liyue person would use.

In D'Artagnan's opinion, the best thing to do about Liyue is to ask Zhongli; he'll definitely know.

Zhongli stopped picking up food and looked at Dadalia with a puzzled expression.

Haven't you met Lin Qiu several times?

Lin Qiu sent letters and books to all his friends, how come you don't know his identity?

Could it be that they don't consider you a friend?

Have I really only ever eaten all those times?

Believe it or not, when Lin Qiu came to freeload a meal, he really did just eat.

Dadalia wasn't interested in Lin Qiu, so most of the conversations were between Zhong Li and Dadalia.

Lin Qiu simply stood by, quietly picking up food and turning the table.

Seeing that D'Artagnan's curious expression didn't seem fake, it appeared that he genuinely didn't know Lin Qiu's identity.

Zhong Li thought for a moment but decided not to reveal Lin Qiu's identity directly. Instead, she said tactfully:

"I do know that author."

I wonder if Zhongli will regret helping Lin Qiu conceal his identity when Lin Qiu repays kindness with enmity and exposes his true identity in the future.

I was covering for you here, and you stabbed me in the kidney from behind?

"Mr. Zhongli is indeed very knowledgeable."

When interacting with intellectuals, D'Artagnan would rack his brains to say things that sound learned.

"So, who is this author?"

When D'Artagnan asked curiously, Zhongli only said that he knew the person, without even mentioning where the person was from.

"A person with great ideas and perhaps the ability to realize them." Zhongli's words were essentially meaningless.

"..."

D'Artagnan realized that Zhongli had no intention of revealing the other party's identity.

"Okay, okay~, let's eat first."

D'Artagnan didn't press the matter, nor did he believe he could extract information from Zhongli with his eloquence.

Instead of relying on your eloquence, it's more likely to succeed by grabbing the other person, beating them up, and forcing them to answer questions.

Of course, Tartaglia wouldn't attack Zhongli.

Zhongli is a capable person from Liyue whom he finally got to know, and it's not the time to offend someone like that.

After they had eaten a few bites, D'Artagnan suddenly remembered something.

Since the author's identity cannot be revealed, can you reveal anything else?

"Mr. Zhongli, in your opinion, since the author has already foretold Mondstadt, will he also foreshadow Liyue in the future?"

Zhongli thought for a while and finally nodded.

"Since the book is called 'Tales of Teyvat,' it can't be just Mondstadt."

"I just don't know what the story of Liyue will be, or when the prophecy will begin. It's something to look forward to."

Zhong Li smiled; he now resembled a retired old man.

When I have nothing to do, I walk my birds, drink tea, and listen to audiobooks. The appearance of this prophecy book is a new kind of fun.

Incidentally, it also allows him to see whether the future Liyue, ruled by humans, will be able to succeed after his 'death'.

He never imagined that the story of Liyue would begin with his faked death...

Speaking of resembling a retired old man, Zhong Li recalled a story Lin Qiu had told her before.

It is said to be the story of the Eight Immortals.

When talking about a person named 'Zhong Liquan', Lin Qiu complained that all people with 'Zhong Li' in their names are like this.

Zhongli Quan called himself "a carefree man of the world".

His image was also that of a bare-chested man who spent his days wandering around with a fan, doing good deeds along the way, just like a scoundrel.

At the time, Lin Qiu even wondered if Zhong Li might also be an immortal, pretending to be a scoundrel like Zhong Li Quan.

This made Zhongli pay more attention to her attire, so that no one would mistake her for a scantily clad woman.

"Is that so? Sigh, I hope we can start making predictions from the more distant future," the young master sighed.
