Genshin Impact: Can’t the executive just give up?

In the end, the two put aside the topic of Rhine and tacitly did not mention "Mr. Bai" again.

However, in the minds of both of them, the man the other knew was still not trustworthy: "Even if Ye Lan (Ningguang) trusts Lai Yin (Mr. Bai), he has too many suspicious points and cannot be trusted!"

Rhine was lying in the room and could only hear what the two said. As for what they were thinking, Rhine only knew alchemy and could not read minds, so he naturally could not guess.

However, when he heard that the two men were planning to target Zhongli, he still laughed unkindly, and it took some effort to hold back from laughing out loud.

"Morax, if you are really kidnapped, I have nothing to do with it." Rhine thought with a smile on his face.

After this, Ningguang and Ye Lan's conversation became much more serious, mixed with some information about other tasks.

But since he was no longer connected to Rhine, he no longer bothered to eavesdrop.

"That's it. I have to go back to organize other information." Ye Lan finally straightened her long legs that were crossed together, stood up and left.

Before leaving, she couldn't help but remind him, "Also, I don't want to get involved in your private affairs, but you have to be on guard. Your relationship is developing too fast."

What Ye Lan was talking about was, of course, Ningguang’s level of trust in Lai Rhine. She had only known that “Mr. Bai” for a few days, yet she had so hastily arranged for him to be by her side.

If it were Ye Lan herself, she would never dare to live under the same roof with a man of questionable identity without arranging some special tests.

"Don't worry, I have made up my mind." Ningguang didn't want to argue, so she walked behind Ye Lan and saw her off.

When Ningguang came back, Rhine also left the room and sat in the place where Ye Lan had just sat. He poured himself a cup of fresh tea, gently blew away the water vapor on the cup, and sipped it slowly.

"How is it going? Have you come up with any results?" Rhine chatted with Ningguang as if nothing had happened.

Ningguang sat in the same position as before, looking at Lai Rhine who was enjoying himself beside her: “We will temporarily slow down the investigation of Guiliyuan and gather elite personnel within Zhongli’s range of activities.

Although it is difficult to track the "young master", it should not be a problem if we only investigate the guest official.

Then put some trustworthy people into the preparations for the Immortal Invitation Ceremony to investigate any suspicious individuals. As for the subsequent actions, it will depend on the results of the investigation."

Ningguang has not completely given up on "Young Master" and Guiliyuan. Although Rhine has diverted her attention, it is impossible for her to do things according to Rhine's ideas.

This is not because I don't trust Rhine, but Ningguang's arrangement requires multiple preparations.

But Rhine did not hear Ningguang telling her about her disagreement with Ye Lan. It seemed that she was not completely reassured about her identity.

But it doesn’t matter. As long as Ningguang still needs him, there will be a place for Rhine in the Qun Yu Pavilion.

Of course, it is impossible for Rhine to sit still and wait for death. Although it is comfortable to rely on resolving assassinations to gain Ningguang's trust, their goal is to prevent Tartaglia's actions from being affected by Liyue so that he can fulfill his agreement with Morax with peace of mind.

Rhine was still a little worried about handing his affairs over to others.

"In the end, I still didn't have time to rest. If I had known earlier, I would have asked Rosaline and Morax to sign the contract." Rhine regretted in his heart.

Although Ningguang's behavior is still a bit threatening to him, Rhine will not interfere with Ningguang's rules, but there is still room for other maneuvers in this matter.

Lai Yin took another sip of tea and pondered, "Since Ningguang intends to find out the situation before making other arrangements, then Zhongli... can he 'reveal' some flaws to attract Ningguang's attention..."

"Mr. Bai, what are you thinking about?" Ningguang looked at Lai Yin. As far as she knew, Mr. Bai rarely looked thoughtful like that, which was not in line with his character.

Especially tonight, after he said those words that made Ningguang not know how to respond, the image of this powerful alchemist in Ningguang's mind was no longer the same as before.

Mr. Bai now has some childish flaws, but he is more humane and real, and at the same time, he causes Ningguang more headaches.

"If his temper becomes more and more stubborn..."

Ningguang knew that she couldn't restrain Mr. Bai by her own strength, so she could only use other means to see if she could make Mr. Bai become more normal, or at least not so annoying.

"He has only been awake for a few days and he has already become like this. Who knows what he will become after a few years."

Rhine put down the teacup: "Nothing, I just feel bored."

He put his hand in front of Ningguang, and while she wasn't paying attention, he gently touched Ningguang's fair and smooth forehead with his fingers.

Ningguang was slightly startled, and subconsciously tilted her head back: "What are you doing?"

But Rhine's movements were too fast, not giving Ningguang any time to react. By the time she came to her senses, Rhine had already taken his hand back.

“Nothing, I just activated the spiritual power I placed in your body, which is enough to protect you for the whole night.

I'm a little tired. If everything is ok, I'll go and rest first."

After saying that, Rhine stretched, and without waiting for Ningguang to speak, he got up and went back to his room.

Ningguang looked at Lai Rhine's back, somewhat absent-minded.

Mr. Bai's temper is getting worse and worse.

Suddenly, Ningguang thought of Ye Lan and said to herself, "For a person like this, even if his identity is questionable, there is no need to doubt him."

She was still thinking about Ye Lan's advice to her, telling her to pay attention to Mr. Bai.

But even the most senior undercover agent in the General Affairs Department would never use this kind of personality to get close to the target person, right?

Rhine, who returned to the room, didn't know yet that Ningguang would actually increase her trust in him in this strange way.

He arranged his fake body on the bed, took off his mask, and changed his white robe into a black robe of Liyue style. He blinked, and his golden eyes returned to the standard style of the Kanriya people.

……

Ye Lan walked on the streets of Liyue, thinking about Rhine while contemplating her next move.

"Is he...really untrustworthy?"

Ye Lan shook her head. Rhine’s identity was indeed rather special, but he was definitely trustworthy. Ningguang didn’t trust him simply because she didn’t understand him.

However, she hadn't seen him for a while. Although according to Rhine, he would not be troubled by the Fatui, Ye Lan didn't know how Rhine was doing.

While thinking, a clear red color came into Ye Lan's eyes, and a string of brightly colored candied haws appeared out of thin air.

"Long time no see, would you like to eat?"

Ye Lan looked up along the stem of the candied haws, saw slender white fingers, a palm that was much wider than hers, long sleeves in the traditional style of Liyue, and finally, that familiar face, smiling at her.

Lai Yin stood in the light, looking at the stunned Ye Lan: "It's been a long time since we last met, did you miss me?"
