He still has some documents to process.
Halfway through the approval process, there was a knock at the door.
"Please come in."
Zhongli raised his head.
The door was pushed open, and a familiar face came into his view.
"Morax, it's been a long time."
Zhongli looked at him, her expression remaining calm.
He didn't seem surprised.
"Rodha, it's been a long time."
The Dragon King walked in with a smile, followed by True Lord Li Shui and True Lord Xiao Yue.
"What are you doing?"
"Just some trivial matters."
"Since it's a trivial matter, it's not important. We can leave it until tomorrow. Come on, let's go have a drink!"
"...That's fine."
Zhong Li put down his pen, closed the document, and stood up.
Where shall we go for a drink?
"The cafeteria has separate rooms."
"The cafeteria... we bought some snacks to go with our drinks. There are mountain delicacies from Liuli Pavilion and seafood from Xinyue Pavilion..."
"You've always had a big appetite, this amount of food probably won't be enough. Let's go to the cafeteria and get more later if it's convenient."
"Haha, that makes sense. I'd also like to try the school food."
"It will not let you down."
"I also bought osmanthus wine."
"Very good……"
Zhong Li closed the office door.
The four of them traveled away together.
The school's greenery is also quite nice, with many trees planted, already showing signs of vitality in early spring.
This was naturally the work of another vice principal, Kusagami Natsumi.
As I passed a tree, the wind rustled through its leaves.
Zhongli looked up and glanced at it.
It turned out that this was also an osmanthus tree.
Pale yellow buds have already sprouted on the branches, and upon closer inspection, there seems to be a faint fragrance of osmanthus in the air.
Great Compassion Tree King, Baal, Roda...
In less than a year, he had already met three old friends.
Zhongli withdrew her gaze.
Very good...
Arrived at the cafeteria.
Everyone drank and chatted together.
We talked about the past, the present, and the future.
time flies.
The Dragon King also drank to his heart's content.
Although this osmanthus wine wasn't as good as the cocktails Diona made, he didn't have anyone to drink with like this when he was at Liuyun's place a few days ago, so it still felt a bit lacking.
Zhongli glanced out the window and realized that it was already very late at night.
I have to go to work tomorrow.
It’s better to go to bed early.
Zhongli put down his cup, just about to tell Ruo Tuo that this was the end of the day.
At this moment, he noticed that True Lord Lishui reached out and secretly tugged at Ruoduo's sleeve.
Ruo Tuo was taken aback and looked down at the True Lord of Li Shui.
Zhongli heard Lishui say very softly, "It's time to get on the plane..."
Ok?
Computer lab session?
What does this word mean?
Zhongli didn't quite understand.
He saw that the Dragon King Rota seemed to have suddenly sobered up, and then put down his wine cup and said, "Morax, it's getting late, let's stop drinking here for today. You have to work tomorrow, so we shouldn't bother you too much."
Zhongli was taken aback upon hearing this.
Ok?
What the hell?
Ruo Tuo's alcohol addiction is so severe. In the past, when he asked me to drink, he would only stop with regret when there was no more alcohol left. How come he had such self-control this time?
Is it because of that so-called "on-the-job training"?
What on earth is that?
For Rota, it was actually more appealing than his favorite wine?
Zhongli nodded slightly and said, "Okay."
Ruo Tuo then said, "Since I have nowhere else to go, why don't I stay at the school with you and find something to do? I wonder if the school is still short of security guards?"
"Security guard? You could be a teacher..."
"Um, I think I'll pass on being a teacher. Xia Ci told me that I have to prepare lessons every day, which is really too much trouble. Besides, I don't know much about the current situation in Liyue. I'm not familiar with many of the new things. If I were to teach, I could only teach some clichés, which would inevitably lead to embarrassing situations. I'd rather be a security guard for a while..."
"……it is good."
"Then it's settled. I'll come to work at school again tomorrow. You get some rest tonight, we'll be going now!"
The Dragon King waved his hand, stood up, and left swiftly and decisively.
The two True Lords also took their leave with him.
"Goodbye, Your Majesty."
Zhongli looked at the three of them in their hurried manner, his expression thoughtful.
They just came from Liuyun and spent the last few days with Mr. Xia.
This "boarding"... is probably still related to Mr. Xia...
But what exactly is it?
Zhongli thought for a while, but couldn't come up with any clues.
Forget it.
I'll ask Risui Shōgetsu again tomorrow.
Zhongli picked up the wine pot on the table, poured himself another half cup of wine, and took a sip.
The osmanthus wine I drank today...
It's finally starting to taste good...
--
The next day, early morning.
Xia Zhi emerged from the Dust Song Pot and saw Yao Yao's parents already busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
The villagers did indeed get up earlier.
"Mr. Xia is up!"
"Good morning, both of you."
"Mr. Xia, please have a seat. Breakfast will be ready soon."
Xia Zhi originally wanted to help, but seeing that the breakfast in the pot was almost ready, she decided there was no need to go.
He should get up earlier.
But Shen He refused.
She said she hadn't looked for him much in her master's celestial abode a few days ago.
