Chapter 471
"Traveler, why didn't you let me speak just now! You even covered my mouth with your hands. I'm angry!"
After leaving Grandma Ping, Paimeng was finally freed. As soon as he regained his freedom, he protested to Ying indignantly.
"How dare you say you're angry?" Ying glanced at Paimeng speechlessly.
"Don't think I don't know what you were going to say just now. I was just being polite, and you really wanted to agree."
"This is the first time we met. How dare you eat and drink with me?"
"You are shameless, I want more!"
"Uh..."
After hearing this, Paimeng realized that he was in the wrong. He was so guilty that he didn't dare to refute anything and lowered his head to his fingers.
"Let's go and find Keqing."
"But let me make this clear first. From now on, no matter if others are being polite or sincere, if they want to treat or give us something, you should stop talking nonsense. I must make the decision."
"Otherwise, I will reduce your food allowance, starting from one month."
In view of Paimeng's recent behavior of being more greedy and wanting to make decisions on his own, Ying had to make a rule with Paimeng.
The shame is secondary, and the more important thing is that it is easy to owe favors.
Paimeng agreed readily with his lips touching.
But she is the one who needs to think about how to repay the favor afterwards!
In order to avoid this unnecessary trouble, Ying felt it necessary to restrain Paimeng.
"What?! Reduce my food allowance?! How can this be possible?!"
When Paimeng heard this threat, he panicked.
Aren't you trying to kill me!
He immediately made a promise.
"Paimeng will never make random promises to others again. Traveler, please don't reduce my food!"
"Hmph! It depends on your performance. I'll leave it at that. If you forget and make a mistake again in the future, don't blame me for not reminding you."
"No, Paimeng will remember it and will never forget it."
"Yes."
Seeing Paimeng's repeated promises, he nodded with satisfaction.
Then, the two asked for directions all the way to Yujingtai.
But as soon as they arrived here, they were stopped by the Qianyan Army guarding the door.
"This is an important administrative area. No outsiders are allowed to enter. Please show your ID and the purpose of your visit."
Ying was not annoyed, but explained politely: "Hello, we are here to see Keqing. We made an appointment with her yesterday. Please inform her."
Qianyanjun verified the information after hearing this. Seeing that it was indeed on the visit memorandum, he nodded.
"Please wait here."
After that, he sent someone in to inform.
After a while, the person who informed came back, followed by two people.
One of them was Keqing, and the other was a white-haired lady Ying had never seen before.
"Traveler, you are here. Let me introduce you. This is also one of the Seven Stars of Liyue, Tianquan Star—— Ningguang. "
Why did Ningguang appear here?
Of course, it was because she had heard the news from Ganyu yesterday, and asked Keqing about Ying's arrival today, so she had been waiting here early today.
"Hello, Traveler, welcome to Liyue."
Ningguang smiled and stretched out her hand, staring at Ying.
"Hello."
Ying stretched out her hand and shook it slightly before letting it go, looking a little reserved.
Although Ningguang was very beautiful and she was happy to see such a beauty, Ying always felt that Ningguang looked at her strangely, as if she wanted to eat her.
"I have heard about what happened yesterday. Thank you for your efforts in clearing out the treasure-stealing group, and thank you for sending Yuhengxing back so quickly. Liyue is currently in need of people, and this is really a great help."
"No, no, you are too polite, it was just a matter of convenience. ”
“It may be just a convenience for you, but it is a great help to us.”
“How about this, I wonder if you are free at noon. I would like to invite you to lunch, first to thank you for your help, and second to welcome you.”
Ningguang smiled and made the invitation.
This made Paimeng’s face change, but he immediately remembered that he had just made a three-point agreement with Ying, and immediately regained his calm, just looking at Ying with some hope, hoping that Ying would agree.
But obviously, Ying would not accept this kind of good intention with unclear intentions.
Under Paimeng’s disappointed gaze, Ying waved her hand and refused: “Don’t bother so much, I appreciate your kindness, but I have something to do in the Dimension City later, so I don’t have time. ”
As the saying goes, those who show kindness without any reason are either treacherous or thieves.
She and Ningguang were not familiar with each other, and they had never even met before.
The other party was so enthusiastic towards her as soon as they met, he must be planning something.
Although this plan was not necessarily to harm her, out of caution, Ying did not agree rashly.
"Is that so? That's a pity. How about another day? Let's talk again when you have time? Please do me a favor."
Ningguang's retreat made Ying a little difficult to respond.
Now that it has come to this, refusing again would be a disrespect to the other party.
Ying just didn't want to cause trouble, and didn't want to have an unpleasant experience with Ningguang because of this, so she had to nod:
"Next time for sure. ”
Let’s put it off until next time. As for whether she will be free next time, that’s a matter for next time.
Ningguang’s eyes flashed with surprise. She didn’t expect Ying to be so difficult. (To read the novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
She naturally understood the meaning of the excuse in “next time”. She estimated that she would probably get the same answer next time she came to find Ying.
But Ningguang was not discouraged. She smiled and said, “It’s an agreement.”
With this agreement, she will have no shortage of reasons to find Ying in the future. It can be regarded as a relationship.
Ningguang was basically satisfied with this.
Although she had not yet achieved her most desired goal, at least she had taken the first step, which was a good start.
Ying looked at Ningguang's smile and felt that her words had pitted her.
But the words had been said and could not be taken back, so she had to bite the bullet and nodded to express her agreement.
"Then I won't bother you any more. I still have work to do, so I'll go back first. Goodbye."
After saying that, Ningguang left very simply.
Ying was relieved only after Ningguang walked away.
At this time, Keqing, who had not interrupted, came up.
"Sorry, (good job Zhao) she insisted on following you after hearing that you were here, and I couldn't stop her."
Keqing knew what Ningguang was planning, and she felt a little sorry for causing trouble to Ying.
Ying waved her hand: "It's okay, it's not your fault, but what's going on with her?"
Keqing hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to confess to Ying to avoid any misunderstandings. []
"In fact, Ningguang just wants to connect with the Dimension City through you, and then reach some business cooperation with the Dimension City."
Keqing did not object to this, after all, it would also be good for Liyue.
So she asked Ying again: "Do you know any news? I heard that the Dimension City doesn't seem to be interested in this."
"Is that so? I thought she wanted to do something, and I was shocked."
Ying nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, and then shook her head:
"I don't know the ins and outs of this, and I'm not qualified to know."
