The next day, the Knights,

"You must dress formally when meeting your parents,"

Qin stood on tiptoe to straighten He Li's collar, and patted the dust off his shoulders.

Then he stepped back a few steps, nodded with satisfaction,

He Li was a little bit embarrassed. He lowered his head and looked around. He stamped his feet and still felt a little uncomfortable.

"There's no need to be so formal. It's just a meal. It's not real."

"That won't do. The old nobles in Mondstadt are very traditional..."

Qin frowned and explained, stepping forward again to smooth out the wrinkles.

"If you don't behave well today, if Eula needs to look for you again in the future, then... it will delay things. Anyway, let's try to get it done in one go."

"this..."

He Li still wants to refute,

A man suddenly appeared at the door of the Knights.

"Hey, that's enough,"

Eula leaned against the door frame with her arms folded, looking unhappy.

"Okay, okay, Eula is here, let her take a look."

He Li dodged Qin's outstretched hand, turned around in front of Youla, looked up and asked:

"How about this one? Will your uncle be satisfied?"

Eula took a look and took in the whole outfit. Her eyes lit up, but she looked away unconsciously:

"not bad,"

"You heard me, Qin? No need to change it anymore,"

He Li turned around and looked at Qin. He glanced at a pile of clothes not far away and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.

"All right,"

Seeing that the master had said so, Qin stopped struggling and just stepped forward to straighten his tie and said:

"come back earlier,"

"it is good,"

He Li nodded.

"..."

Looking at the two people standing next to each other,

Eula suddenly felt unhappy.

He is my boyfriend today...

He took a step forward, grabbed He Li's wrist, turned around and left.

"Come on, come on, I've already told my uncle that I have to visit him this morning, so don't be late."

...

"Good morning, Mr. Schubert~ Lawrence, I am He Li, Eula's lover,"

Facing the middle-aged man in front of him, He Li bowed slightly.

"You have good etiquette. I will spare you the trouble of kneeling on one knee this time."

Schubert sat on the sofa, looking at He Li's outfit and appearance, and nodded slightly.

"This is a meeting gift and a visiting gift for you, please accept it,"

He Li carried two boxes and placed them on the table.

Seeing He Li take out the gift from the system, Eula behind him nudged him with her elbow and said softly:

"When did you buy the gift? Why didn't I see it along the way? And... you don't have to buy a gift."

He Li tilted his head slightly:

"It's okay, it's not a valuable item. After all, he is your uncle. It's natural to leave a good impression on your first day."

"Damn it, you didn't tell me in advance. I'll remember this grudge."

Youla bared her teeth, feeling inexplicably fulfilled.

I didn't expect that he would prepare so much for such an unknown thing.

"The gifts are right there, please find a seat first."

Schubert nodded.

He Li sat not too far from him, and Youla sat next to him.

"I heard from Eula that you are from Liyue?"

"I am half Liyue."

He Li said yes, his black hair and gray eyes couldn't be faked,

"Will you go to Liyue in the future?"

Schubert frowned, as if he was worried about something.

"It depends on the situation. If there is nothing else, I probably won't go.

After all, my work, home and lover are all here,"

Having said this, He Li pulled up the hand of Youla next to him and held it tightly.

At the same time, turn your head and look into the other person's eyes with a "deeply affectionate" gaze.

hiss--

Youla was smart and didn't dare to face He Li's "burning" eyes. She turned her head away.

Feeling the warmth in her hands, Eula tightened her palms.

This guy...is really good at pretending.

But in Schubert's view, this scene is——

He Li held his niece's hand. His niece lowered her head shyly, not daring to look him in the eye. Her face flushed slightly, but she did not pull her hand back.

This is clearly a love story between a man and a woman!

The last bit of doubt in Schubert's heart was also eliminated.

Yesterday, his niece suddenly told him that she had a boyfriend and that she didn't need to go on a blind date with Diluk anymore.

He thought that Eula had just picked someone from the street to impersonate her.

I was preparing to expose it today.

I didn't expect that now I look at it like this -

You're serious.

No one knew his niece's character better than Schubert.

If she wasn't in love, would she let a man rub her hand like this?

Schubert pinched his chin.

Now I have to change my mindset and review this "prospective nephew-in-law".

"Yes, regarding you and Eula, I am more interested in your meeting and acquaintance. Can you tell me about it?"

Schubert took a sip of tea. Now he had to test the depth of their feelings.

"My encounter with Eula happened on a rainy day."

He Li put down the cup in his hand and showed a nostalgic expression.

"This is my first time in Mondstadt. I am not familiar with the roads. I also encountered hill people and it was a thunderstorm.

I can only hide in the cave.

I was tired, hungry, and cold, and I also had to be on guard against the Qiuqiu people outside.

Just then...”

He Li spoke with great emotion, and suddenly took Youla's hands.

"A big sword broke through the rain curtain, and a figure like a fighting angel appeared in front of me. She stretched out her hand to me and said:

'I am coming',

Behind her was the Hillockman who had already broken into pieces of ice.

"Cough cough,"

Youla coughed lightly and looked away again, not daring to meet He Li's burning gaze.

As for the story he told...it was indeed true,

But...what angelic figure, moon-like face,

Was this the image I presented to him that day?

It's not... not that good.

Hiss, I was almost led astray by him,

Eula shook her head to clear her chaotic thoughts.

On the other side, He Li continued:

"I followed the knights all the way to Mondstadt,

From that day on, I suddenly found that I couldn’t eat anymore.”

Youla looked up in confusion. She had never heard He Li say this before.

"What's wrong,"

Schubert was also fascinated by what he heard and urged him to

"Because someone suddenly broke into my heart, I wanted to see her very much, often, and often.

Without her, I have no interest in doing anything.

So I started to move around the team, looking for her everywhere under the pretext of helping.

Until I saw her at the head of the team,

I felt full of strength.

I knew then that I was deeply in love with her.”

He Li spoke affectionately, holding Eula's hands and slowly tightening his grip.

The affectionate words struck Eula's heart.

And Eula listened to He Li's confession,

With her head down, her face was as red as a juicy apple, making people want to take a bite.

It's fake, it's fake, it's fake, don't take it seriously,

She bit her lower lip and kept repeating in her mind,

It took a long time before he raised his face, which was still flushed.

She leaned over, put her red lips close to He Li's ear, and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear:

"It's such a good story. I'll remember this grudge."

"Ha, you two really have a good relationship. How about this, let's have dinner together and leave the space to you two young lovers first."

Schubert looked at the two people who were so 'intimate', smiled, stood up, and walked into the house.

"It's great to be young."

...

Eula returned to her seat only after she was sure Schubert couldn't see her.

After hesitating for a while, he stretched out his foot and kicked He Li's calf:

"Hey, was what you just said true?"

"Of course it's true,"

He Li looked sincere.

"Ah? Really?... This, this, this... No, that's not right... Not that it's not right... No, it's not right, it's not right, it's not right, it's not right, "

Steam was coming out of Eula's head again, and she was stuttering when she spoke.

Unexpectedly, He Li added:

"Of course it's true today, but as for tomorrow..."

Eula finally reacted and kicked him again with a flushed face.

"Damn it, you actually teased me, this vengeance..."

This time I used a little more force.

"Won't you ask about tomorrow?"

He Li interrupted her with a smile.

"So...what about tomorrow?"

There was an inexplicable look of anticipation in Eula's eyes.

"Half truth, half false,"

"Which ones are true and which ones are false,"

"you guess?"

He Li blinked.

"Ice waves raging!!!"
