Genshin Impact: While strolling around Teyvat, I was driven mad by a player.

"No, you're always daydreaming."

"I should say that the traveler, Zhongli, and I were busy all day."

Paimon nodded upon hearing this.

Realizing something was amiss, she put her hands on her hips in front of Qiu Nian.

"Ha ha..."

"That's not how it's calculated, is it?"

"After all, the Hall of Rebirth is preparing the ceremony for sending off immortals so that you can see the Rock God. I'm just helping out along the way."

"Although it seems like I didn't help much, there's a saying that goes, even if you don't get credit, you still put in the effort."

"You can't say I'm being lazy, can you?"

Qiu Nian chuckled softly, then spoke to Ying and Paimon in front of him.

"Uh...that does seem to be the case..."

"In that case, it seems we should be thanking you properly."

"Then...thank you?"

Paimon felt a little embarrassed upon hearing this, then looked at Qiu Nian in front of him and spread out his small hands.

"Thank you, Qiu Nian."

Ying covered her chest with one hand and thanked Qiu Nian.

"You're welcome."

Qiu Nian smiled upon hearing this.

"Ah...Paimon is exhausted and sleepy after a long day."

"Traveler, let's go get some food first, and then find a hotel to sleep in!"

Paimon yawned, then looked at Ying beside him and said wearily.

"How about Qiu Nian? Would you like to come have a meal with us?"

"Don't worry, I know you don't have Mora."

"I'll treat you to a meal, and I'll also help you rent an inn."

Ying nodded upon hearing this and turned her gaze to Qiu Nian.

But the next moment she noticed something strange.

That means they had been traveling all day, whether it was Qiu Nian or Zhong Li.

They didn't seem to show the slightest sign of fatigue.

"There's no need for you to spend any money."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Nian shook her head at Ying.

"What about you?"

"Are you suggesting we go without eating or sleeping all day, just to wait until Zhongli treats us to dinner tonight?"

Seeing Qiu Nian shake his head, Paimon asked with a puzzled look.

"It's alright, Qiu Nian."

"It's just the cost of a meal and renting an inn."

Looking at Qiu Nian in front of her, Ying thought to herself that Qiu Nian had actually become so poor.

She thought Qiu Nian was just reluctant to spend her money.

People who are poorer often understand the value of money the most.

Unlike someone who possesses endless knowledge of high society but is actually very poor.

This made her feel sorry for Qiu Nian.

He was an orphan, living alone in the wilderness.

“In that case, why don’t you come back to the Rebirth Hall with me, Mr. Qiu Nian?”

"After we arrive at the Hall of Rebirth, we will have breakfast at the Hall of Ten Thousand People with the Hall Master."

"If you'd like to rest... there are a few vacant rooms in the Rebirth Hall."

Just then, Zhongli spoke up to Qiu Nian and made a suggestion.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Zhongli."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Nian revealed a faint smile.

He was just waiting for Morax to say that.

He still needed to talk to Morax about the matter concerning Bazhe and Osel.

It's also a good opportunity to meet Hu Tao, the 77th generation head of the Wangsheng Hall.

Chapter 25 Walnut

"Then Paimon and I will go have breakfast first."

Seeing this, Ying nodded to Qiu Nian and Zhong Li.

"See you tonight!"

"Goodbye, Autumn Twenty-Year, Zhongli!"

Upon hearing this, Paimon looked at Qiu Nian and Zhong Li in front of him and said with a smile.

"See you tonight."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Nian smiled at Ying and Paimeng.

Afterwards, Ying and Paimeng left Yujingtai.

"No, why can't I go back to the Hall of Rebirth with them?"

"I want to go too!"

"Qiu Nian rejected me and then left with Zhong Li!"

There's definitely something going on between them!

Upon seeing this, Xuehua found it hard to accept and then revealed a yaoi fangirl expression.

[Zhongli: I have some good stuff at home]

I can picture it!

"Let's go too, old friend."

Zhongli looked at Qiu Nian beside him and waved his hand as he spoke.

Qiu Nian nodded upon hearing this.

Then he and Zhongli headed towards the Hall of Rebirth.

It was just dawn.

Nowadays, there are only a few early-morning stalls on the streets, but there are still quite a few pedestrians.

Throughout the journey, Qiu Nian kept observing the things around her.

The air was fresh, and birch leaves occasionally drifted down.

Everything about it exudes a sense of youthful vigor.

"How is it different from the ancient Liyue?"

Zhongli looked at Qiu Nian, who was walking beside him and looking around, and asked.

"Hehe...the difference is huge."

"Liyue is so prosperous now."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Nian chuckled and shook her head.

Liyue was the region most affected by demons in ancient times.

Now it is the most peaceful and tranquil place.

It doesn't have as many problems as other countries.

Three thousand years ago, Liyue Harbor was nowhere near this size.

The buildings were also very different from what they are now.

Even the population wasn't more than one percent of what it is now, and the clothes and food weren't as good as they are now.

"Um..."

Zhongli heard his old friend make such a comment.

He also revealed a barely perceptible smile.

"By the way, Hall Master Hu's personality might be a bit..."

"You'll know when you meet her."

Zhongli seemed to have thought of something, and gave a somewhat hesitant reminder.

Upon hearing this, Qiu Nian feigned a puzzled expression.

"I can't handle that child."

Zhongli looked at Qiu Nian and sighed softly.

"Someone you can't handle."

"I am indeed quite curious."

Qiu Nian found it somewhat amusing upon hearing this.

She was very familiar with Hu Tao; in her past life, Hu Tao was the first character she played to fulfill her destiny.
