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

"Ningguang, why are you in a daze?"

Looking at the dazed Ningguang, Rhine felt a little strange.

"Ah, nothing. I just didn't expect that Mr. Bai, who has not been with me for a very long time, can understand me so well." Ningguang shook her head.

During this appointment, she did want to take advantage of Rhine, but seeing that Rhine was so sincere and understood her so well, Ningguang felt a little guilty.

Of course, it was just guilt. She was not a indecisive person. Since she had decided to play the emotional card with Rhine, she would continue to go on.

Besides, she did approve of Rhine. Inviting him this time was not only in line with her strategy, but also in line with the agreement between herself and Rhine, and there was also some true feelings involved.

After all, she agreed to his request when she didn't know that such a big thing would happen during the Immortal Summoning Ceremony and she didn't have the idea of ​​taking advantage of Rhine.

"Mr. Bai, are you interested in accompanying me to Chihuyan for a stroll?" Ningguang asked.

"Of course I'm interested." Rhine nodded in agreement.

Chihuyan occupies the southeast of Liyue Harbor, where Wanmin Hall, Sanwanbuguogang, and the Adventurer's Guild are all located. Compared to the prosperous Feiyunpo, this place is equally lively and even has a bit more of a down-to-earth feel.

"By the way, Mr. Bai, do you have any idea of ​​learning how to make money?"

Ningguang took the initiative to find a topic: "I, Ningguang, have been immersed in this art for more than 20 years. Mr. Bai, have you ever thought about becoming a famous person without relying on alchemy and gaining both fame and fortune?"

Facing Ningguang's confident eyes, Lai Yin waved his hand: "Not interested."

“I know that few people can match Mr. Bai in the art of alchemy, but shouldn’t the more knowledge we have, the better?” Ningguang expressed her confusion.

As far as she knew, an alchemist needed to master a lot of knowledge, and someone of Rhine's level should have a vast amount of knowledge.

People like them should have a desire for all kinds of knowledge.

Lai Yin smiled and said, "If I had always followed Ning Guang, wouldn't I have enjoyed endless wealth and glory? Why would I bother pursuing those ways of making money in the eyes of ordinary people?"

“Ordinary people…” Ningguang moved closer to Lai Yin and pretended to be displeased: “I don’t hate the term ‘ordinary people’, but Mr. Bai doesn’t seem to classify himself as such. Are you looking down on me?”

Ningguang raised her head, her ruby-like eyes sparkling as she stared at Rhine.

Not only that, she also deliberately made her cheeks slightly puffy, and her unmade face had a very light red color, making her face look even whiter.

If you want to win Rhine's heart, blindly trying to please him is not advisable, as it will easily make him suspicious.

Ningguang pretended to be dissatisfied with Rhine, but there was a hint of tsundere on her face. She knew that this way, Rhine would not feel disgusted, but would instead feel that her personality was somewhat cute.

It has to be said that although Ningguang focuses most of her energy on business, she also has unique understanding in other areas.

Sure enough, when Rhine saw Ningguang's appearance, his pupils widened.

I have to say that Ningguang is equally charming like this, and the contrast even makes her look more attractive.

"really."

Seeing Rhine's expression, Ningguang knew that her action had worked. She felt secretly delighted and subconsciously followed the routine of business conversation to press on.

"Besides, Mr. Bai can guarantee that you will always be by my side. Don't forget that Liyue Harbor is a commercial capital. If we only rely on force..."

Ningguang regretted the moment she said this.

Taking advantage of a victory and putting the enemy at a disadvantage is to gain more benefits for yourself.

But Rhine was not her enemy, and in this "conversation", she was not the one who took the absolute initiative.

Isn't her words pushing the person she wants to win over away?

Ningguang noticed that there was a strange color flowing in Rhinegold's eyes.

"Oops."

Thinking that things were not going well, Ningguang's mind raced as she tried to come up with a way to remedy the situation.

But just as she was about to say it, she saw Lai Rhine stretch out a hand, with his fingers spread out, pinching both cheeks of Ningguang.

The somewhat hard fingers touched Ningguang's pink and tender skin, manually creating two dimples on her face.

"Ms. Ningguang thinks too highly of yourself." Although Rhine was asking a question, his tone was very affirmative.

"No, Mr. Bai..." Standing on the passive side, Ningguang sensed that the atmosphere was wrong and hurriedly tried to find a way to explain.

"Listen to me." Rhine didn't give her a chance to explain.

Seeing Rhine's serious attitude, Ningguang, whose cheek was clamped, had no choice but to open her eyes wide and hold back her speech.

Lai Yin rubbed Ningguang's face, and sighed that her skin was as delicate and smooth as that of a young girl. He said, "Miss Ningguang, you don't seem to have a clear understanding of your own position."

Ningguang felt uncomfortable when she heard Rhine address her with a respectful title.

But Rhine continued, "Even if you don't want me to accompany you, you can't do anything to me anyway. As long as you are still here, I will find ways to stick to you and stay by your side."

"Eh?" Ningguang asked in a cute puzzled tone.

Why is this statement different from what I thought?

The man in front of him didn't seem to care about his own humiliation at all. Instead, he focused on the separation of the two of them.

Lai Yin held Ningguang's hand and shook it slightly, causing Ningguang's head to shake as well: "It was obviously my dear Ningguang who brought me to Liyue Harbor, and now you are leaving me without finding me a place to stay.

Oh, although I really like Lady Ningguang, I am really sad that you are such a scumbag. Since you actually said such words, I still have to punish you.

The Qun Yu Pavilion is your private property, right? But it doesn’t matter, I will stay in your Qun Yu Pavilion and won’t leave~”

Hearing that Rhine was not angry at all and wanted to continue sticking to her, Ningguang felt warm in her heart. It seemed that he still planned to follow her.

While Ningguang was stunned...

"Well!"

Rhine simply stretched out his other hand, held Ningguang's face with both hands, and rubbed her cheeks with his large palms with tenderness and strength.

"Mrs. Ningguang has taken really good care of herself. Even though she's an adult, her skin feels even better than a child's. I never get tired of playing with her.

Oh, this is also part of the punishment, don’t resist.”

"Mr. Bai, um..." Ningguang wanted to resist, but she was not as strong as Lai Yin, so she had to let her cheeks be rubbed and flattened.

"Hehe, shy Ningguang is so cute." Rhine exclaimed with a smile.

When Ningguang's cheeks were flushed and her eyes were full of sparkling waves, he put down his hand: "Don't say such things in the future, okay? Next time, I will rub you somewhere else."

Rhine threatened Ningguang with a smile on his face, his face full of teasing.

Although there was no serious emotion on his face, Ningguang felt that if she really said such words again, Rhine would really fulfill his promise.

"Absolutely not!" Ningguang glanced at her red cheeks and stared at the gaps between the tiles on the road surface of Chihuyan, thinking so.
