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

"Captain Beidou is drunk..." Ningguang frowned visibly, thinking to herself, "Although this Beidou is very loyal and upright, he is really outspoken and doesn't follow the rules."

Having seen a lot of storms, Ningguang didn't feel too unhappy when Beidou said this, but...

"Mr. Bai is my guest. Please don't make up stories about him and make him unhappy."

"Well, me?" Lai Yin said innocently, "It's nothing for me. If the target of the arrangement is Ningguang, it's not a loss."

He pulled a stool on his own and sat next to Ningguang as usual under Beidou's scrutinizing gaze.

“Ha, hahaha! Ningguang, you still say you are not…” Beidou laughed loudly, and his laughter was as noisy as that of a whole boat of people.

Ning Guang: "..."

She really wanted to tell Beidou that Mr. Bai had just woken up and was immature and didn't have any improper thoughts in his mind. However, due to her pride, she didn't want to explain in detail to Beidou.

"I, Ningguang, have lived an upright life. Why should I explain myself to others?"

"Captain Beidou, are we still going to play this game?" Ningguang abruptly changed the subject.

"Playing chess..." Beidou's laughter stopped abruptly, and he muttered quietly: "Why do you look so bad? I just told the truth. At most, I won't spread it..."

Ningguang clenched her hand around the chess piece, and due to the excessive force, her slender white fingers became even whiter.

Most of the people Ningguang made friends with were sensible and polite. There were very few people as carefree as Beidou. No, it seemed like she was the only one.

"You don't look happy?" Rhine poured himself a cup of tea. Although he was wearing a mask, one could still tell that he looked relaxed.

Perhaps she cared too much about her reputation, or maybe she was unhappy with Beidou's arrogance. In any case, Ningguang did not look too well.

Rhine didn't care. It was just a random pairing. He had even seen the stories of Yamata no Orochi and Melancholy. He was no longer surprised by such things.

"Our high and mighty Lord Tianquan naturally doesn't want to be teased about such issues. He has very high standards." Beidou kept talking while clearing the chess pieces on the board.

“That’s not what I meant. But Captain Beidou, instead of discussing those gossips, you might as well think about how to get back the goods that were smuggled from Inazuma.” Ningguang’s face regained its composure.

She couldn't beat Beidou in this aspect, but in other aspects...

Beidou curled his lips and said, "Originally, I stole the things from the sea monsters. How can it be considered as smuggling?"

"Oh? Captain Beidou or a pirate?" Rhine suddenly asked.

"No, Mr. Bai, I'm just a captain, in charge of legitimate maritime trade." Beidou flatly denied.

“Yes, there is a merchant captain who likes to rob his fellow thieves occasionally…” Ning Guangyan said.

"Uh... can thieves rob each other in business? Isn't that still piracy?" Rhine complained in his heart.

He knew that although Beidou had a legitimate Liyue identity and her ship had been registered, in addition to normal maritime trade, she did do some things that were not so rule-abiding.

At least in Ningguang's eyes, it was definitely chaos.

However, although Ningguang and Beidou often disagree with each other, they are indeed trustworthy partners.

He began to look at Beidou.

As far as he knew, although he could occasionally beat Ningguang, Beidou himself didn't like playing chess, at least he didn't like playing with Ningguang.

For her, adventure, drinking, and making friends are all fun, but activities that require sitting in one place for a long time are definitely not included.

So, the reason these two people can play chess together is not because Ningguang withheld Beidou's goods, which forced her to come, right?

Tsk, interesting~

Watching the two people placing their pieces on the chessboard step by step, Rhine's eyes began to become teasing.

"Those goods were indeed robbed from Kairanui's ship. I didn't lie to you. I plan to sell those things and exchange them for some daily necessities to help some poor people in Inazuma." Beidou did not treat Rhine as an outsider and explained the reason to him.

"Oh, there is this thing?

Then Captain Beidou should just use some Mora to buy supplies. You have already paid so much in fines, so you shouldn't be short of that little money. " Ningguang's face showed no emotion.

"Hey, my Mora didn't come from the wind..." Beidou pressed down a chess piece and said dissatisfiedly.

"Captain Beidou is a chivalrous man, and everyone in Liyue Harbor knows that..." Ningguang also made a move. Her implication was that since Beidou was generous, he certainly wouldn't care about money.

"You..." Beidou paused along with the chess piece in her hand. She didn't know how to refute or how to play chess.

Beidou was a little distracted just now and felt like he had made a wrong move.

"Captain Beidou is from Liyue. It's normal for him not to disperse too much of his wealth in other countries. It's good for a knight to be kind, but it can't be too cheap." Rhine took over the conversation. When he was with Ningguang, she also gave him a lot of knowledge, so he naturally knew the place called Inazuma.

“Well, although what you said is similar to Ningguang’s, as if you are treating everything as a bargaining chip...but it doesn’t seem to be wrong.” Beidou scratched his head. Seeing Rhine helping her out, he felt a little more favorable towards her, but he also became more vigilant.

She still remembered that this man was in cahoots with Ningguang and it was impossible for him to rescue her easily.

"Oh?" Ningguang glanced at Rhine, placed the piece on the chessboard, and said nothing.

Rhine asked again: "Captain Beidou, the Inazuma you mentioned, is the environment bad? Why do the people there need help?"

Ningguang took the initiative to explain for Lai Yin: "Inazuma is an island country in the sea, far away from Liyue. Because it was built on an island, the land's resources are relatively scarce.

I haven't told you yet that the general of Inazuma issued a 'closed country order' to block trade, which really made life difficult for the people there."

"I see..." Rhine suddenly looked up and asked Beidou: "Then are there any Inazuma people on Captain Beidou's ship?"

"Mr. Bai, are you still curious about these? There's nothing hidden in this. There are no Inazuma people on my boat." Although Beidou felt strange, he still told the truth.

"I see..." Rhine fumbled with the teacup, not hiding his thoughts at all.

He remembered that the Eye Hunting Order only appeared some time after the issuance of the Closure Order, and during this period, it seemed that there was still a samurai alive.

"Maplebara Manye's Friend", whose surname is Manye and whose given name is Friend, his real name has always been one of the ten unsolved mysteries of Teyvat.

As an Inazuma samurai, he was dissatisfied with General Raiden's order to close the country, believing that gods could not deprive people of their wishes. Later, in order to face the Thunder God directly, he challenged General Kujo Sara to a duel in front of the emperor, but unfortunately lost.

Then, he was hit on the breast by a certain otaku doll... a knife that Wuxiang wanted to cut.

It is difficult for mortals to compare with gods. Naturally, the warrior could not withstand the attack of General Thunder and eventually died, and the Eye of God on his body became dim.

As a level 60 Teyvat newbie who never skips a plot, Rhine naturally thinks this is a great pity.

And it seems that I have a way to save that friend without disturbing him or wasting too much energy.
