Chapter 356 The Incident in Xumi (Page 12)
When the rightful owner is here, naturally he cannot discuss matters related to it at will. The two of them stood up and came to Keqing.
Seeing Zhongli and Safire, Keqing nodded towards them: "So you are here too. Happy Hai Lantern Festival."
"Happy Hai Lantern Festival." Zhongli and Safire returned the greetings, and then said no more.
Ke Qing knew the identities of the two of them. In Ke Qing's view, these two people were Liyue's sea-fixing needles. As long as they existed, they could guarantee Liyue's long-term peace and stability.
However, due to various reasons, Liyue has entered an era of human rule. This has resulted in Zhongli and Safire never interfering with Liyue's affairs unless necessary. They just carry out their current status activities and do their own things. thing.
Standing in front of Ke Qing, Ying felt a little nervous. Although she had good intentions, she still believed that her actions were a betrayal of Ke Qing.
Even though the five-star good citizen sister was influenced by Safir, she still can't cheat people without changing her face, and then fill it with dirt as a matter of course.
Today's three views are at least very upright.
"Keqing...why are you here?" Ying quietly wiped the sweat from her forehead and asked in a low voice.
Keqing looked at Ying with some suspicion, but she hadn't seen him for a while. This guy looked like he was hiding something from her, which made her feel a little weird. Then she looked at Safi, who had her hands behind her back, and the old god was there. Er and Zhongli, who looked serious.
The doubts in my heart became even worse: "What's wrong? You guys look...a little strange."
But she didn't think much about it, just thinking that she came at the wrong time: "Is it because I came too suddenly and disturbed your conversation? I'm sorry."
"No, no interruption, no interruption..." How could Ying admit it? Once he admitted it, wouldn't it be clear that he was hiding something from the other party? So I immediately shook my head in denial.
Little Paimon felt that it might be bad to continue this topic, so he decided to change the topic and asked preemptively: "Why did Keqing suddenly think of looking for us?"
"Hmm...Actually, I plan to send some gifts to the Immortal family in the name of Qixing." Keqing said the reason for her visit, and then looked at Zhongli and Safire, "Although there are immortals in Liyue Port, there are more Many immortals still live in the mountains, so I want to entrust Ying to help me make a trip."
Ying frowned and looked strange: "Wouldn't it be more appropriate to leave this matter to Zhongli and Safire?"
"Ahem... um... it's better not to bother the Emperor and King Chen with such a small matter..." Ke Qing was a little embarrassed. This topic was really inappropriate to talk about in front of the real owner, "Of course, I will deliver your gifts personally. of."
Safir thought it didn't matter. She thought for a while and confirmed: "You really don't need me to help you run a trip?"
"No...it's not necessary." Ke Qing shook her head repeatedly, and her firm expression made both Safire and Zhongli a little confused.
Logically speaking, it's not a big deal just for a quick trip, but why Ke Qing is so repulsive cannot be explained by some status issue.
Seeing Keqing's refusal, Safir nodded and stopped insisting. She still had her own affairs to be busy with, and it was indeed not suitable to take time to help run errands.
So the errand work still fell on Ying. Little Paimon sighed: "It's really hard for Qixing to be responsible for delivering gifts."
"We will help." Ying solemnly promised.
Seeing that they agreed, Keqing was slightly relieved: "Then it's settled. I'll go back and prepare gifts first. I need to trouble you to accompany me around during this big holiday. I'm really sorry... We'll make a quick decision, and we won't do anything. It will delay your trip to watch the fireworks."
Hearing the fireworks, Ying's eyes suddenly lit up: "Why don't we go watch the fireworks together!" She knew that Keqing had been very hardworking during this period, and felt that this proposal could effectively make the other party relax.
"Eh? Let's... together?" Ke Qing obviously didn't expect that Ying would say such a suggestion, her eyes widened immediately, and then she nodded vigorously, "Okay, after I finish what I'm doing, I'll Come with you."
She suddenly had expectations in her heart. People, as long as they have hope, they will have strength. Ying's words undoubtedly gave Keqing a shot in the arm.
"The same goes for Mr. Zhongli and Miss Safire. This year's fireworks show is of good quality. Don't miss it." Ke Qing turned to Zhongli and extended an invitation.
Neither Zhongli nor Safire refused and agreed.
After confirming that her request had been conveyed perfectly, Keqing stopped lingering, made an appointment with Ying, and went to Qunyu Pavilion to find her after preparations were completed, then turned and left.
Looking at Keqing's leaving figure, little Paimon murmured: "He's gone."
"Yu Hengxing has always done things vigorously and resolutely, which is reassuring." Zhongli has always spoken highly of Keqing. People like Keqing are actually the leader's favorite type. They are able to do things, willing to do things, practical and diligent, and do better than others. He talks a lot and also thinks of his own. He is a general who can stand alone.
"So, what did Saphire want to say just now?" Little Paimon looked at Saphire aside and asked about the topic just now.
Safire shook his head: "It doesn't matter anymore. Keqing is a breath of fresh air in the workplace. This kind of person likes to draw a line based on his own standards. There are often very few people who can meet this standard.
This resulted in her choosing to do many things herself because she felt uneasy leaving them to others. "
In fact, she discovered this problem early on, and it was the same at last year's Hai Lantern Festival. But at that time, Jiang Zhou was still there, and Huixin was also helping. Then because Safire's program report was delayed for a while, Ke Qing had to Slowing down the pace of work relieves stress in disguise.
But this year, these boosts or resistances are no longer there, and Keqing has become like a wild horse that is out of control. No one can interfere with her rhythm and let her continue working at her own pace. It is only a matter of time before something goes wrong.
Zhong Li also sighed helplessly: "So, I always thought that she was a general rather than a handsome man. Yu Hengxing has the ability to fight alone, but she is not suitable for this. She needs someone to assist her.
On the one hand, it relieves her stress, and on the other hand, it also acts as a check and balance on her, preventing her from putting her best effort into work. This allowed her to rest in disguised form. Ning Guang was originally such a candidate, but..."
"But Ningguang also has a solo personality, and it doesn't fit in with some of Keqing's ideas." Safire explained the reason for Zhongli, "It's easy for them to have friction when they get together, and as time goes by, Keqing Qing’s arbitrariness has become more and more serious, and now Ning Guang can’t control her.”
Little Paimon nodded immediately: "That's right! Just now Ningguang told us that she couldn't stop Ke Qing from coming. Safir really knows these things very well!"
"I care about all aspects of Liyue, so how can I not know about Qixing?" Safire didn't think there was any problem with this. As she spoke, she suddenly frowned.
Seeing Saffir's expression, Ying thought she had discovered something again, so she asked, "What's wrong?"
"Huh? It's okay. It has nothing to do with this matter." Safire shook his head and looked at Ying again, "Go to work first. We will find a solution to Qingqing's problem."
Ying understood that this was going to force her away, but she didn't care. She just nodded and left with little Paimon.
