Genshin Impact: Descend to Teyvat Up Pool

Chapter 37: First Encounter with Zhongli

After hearing what the woman in front of him said, he hesitated for a while and decided to tell the truth. After all, he was tired of lying in his previous life.

"My goal is the rough stones. As for why I promote the development of Mondstadt, it is only to obtain more rough stones."

Le Ran put the word out, and those who are reasonable will exchange their interests with him.

As for those unreasonable people, the Rift in my hand will make them behave reasonably.

Ye Lan's mind was racing, subconsciously wondering whether the person in front of her was telling the truth.

But Ye Lan immediately gave up thinking and decided to throw the matter to Ningguang to let that woman have a headache.

However, after careful observation, Ye Lan came to two conclusions.

First, the person in front of me is an expert, the kind that even he himself can’t tell he’s lying.

Second, this person really came here for the raw stones. Everything he said was true, without a single falsehood, and he had absolute confidence in his own abilities.

Thinking about the above two points, Ye Lan fell silent for a moment, and left Wanmin Hall without waiting for the dishes to be served.

Seeing that Ye Lan was about to leave, Le Ran did not try to stop her. He did not want to be asked questions all the time and affect his mood while enjoying the food.

"The last dish is here. Why did that girl leave just now? Did she think it was taking too long?"

"Master Mao has nothing to do with you. That guy didn't come here to eat. Let's eat together."

Master Mao quickly declined, saying that he had something to do.

"Master Mao, are you sure? I have some fine wine from the Dawn Winery, the owner's collection. Let's have a sip."

Master Mao was a little hesitant but could not resist Le Ran's repeated invitations, saying what was the point of drinking alone.

"Drink?"

"Drink some!"

In the end, Master Mao was still lost in the bottles of fine wine.

Let’s not talk about Le Ran, the bastard who played word games with the little loli.

After Ye Lan got the information, he left Wanmin Hall and headed straight for Qun Yu Pavilion.

When Ye Lan came to Ningguang, Ningguang was eating. Ye Lan didn't hesitate to pick up the bowl and chopsticks and they started eating together.

Ningguang didn't say anything and asked someone to add two more dishes that Ye Lan liked, and the two of them started eating in silence.

After they finished their dinner and picked up their teacups, Ningguang then asked.

"What's wrong? I haven't seen you like this in a long time. I remember the last time was in the rich caravan."

Ye Lan glanced at the stingy woman in front of her, repeated what Le Ran said word for word, and looked at the silent Ningguang quietly.

"What do you think about this?"

Ningguang took out her pipe, took a deep breath of the calming herb, and pondered for a while.

After pausing for a long time before exhaling the smoke, Ningguang put the pipe back on the table and made up her mind.

"Ye Lan, please invite Mr. Le Ran to the Qun Yu Pavilion for me tomorrow."

Ye Lan raised her eyebrows and said in surprise.

"No more probing? Just showing your hand? This is not like your style!"

Ningguang subconsciously pulled out her pipe and said thoughtfully.

"Since they have made their intentions clear, if I continue to test them, wouldn't it make me look petty?"

"Okay, I don't understand what you businessmen are thinking. I will go and give the invitation to Mr. Le Ran tomorrow."

After discussing the wording with Ningguang, Ye Lan left the Jade Pavilion with the invitation.

Ningguang was left alone, sitting there thoughtfully, no one knew what she was thinking about.

Regardless of Ningguang's brainstorming in the Jade Pavilion, Le Ran and Master Mao were drunk and leaning against each other with their arms around each other's shoulders.

"Brother, your cooking skills are amazing, definitely better than mine. When my daughter comes back, I will definitely let her learn from you. Don't refuse then."

"Brother Mao, what are you talking about? We hit it off right away. Your daughter is my daughter. Whatever she wants to learn, it's just a matter of a word!"

Looking at the wine bottles on the ground, you can tell how much these two people have drunk.

Even the bottle of 52° Erguotou was not spared, and Le Ran almost went to the kitchen to get some cooking wine to drink.

Just when the two of them finished eating the dishes on the table, Le Ran rolled up his sleeves and was about to go to the kitchen to show off his cooking skills.

A little girl with a high bun with two rings and a little bear with black circles under its eyes walked in from outside Wanmin Hall.

As soon as Xiangling entered Wanmin Hall, she saw Master Mao who was drunk.

Xiangling hurried forward to support the staggering Master Mao, and felt a little angry when she smelled the alcohol on her father.

"Dad, why did you drink so much!"

The drunk Master Mao opened his hazy eyes, saw that it was his daughter and smiled.

"Dad is so happy today. I found you a chef with excellent cooking skills. You should learn from him. His cooking skills are amazing!"

Seeing Master Mao, who was so drunk but still didn't forget to give him food, Xiangling didn't know what to say for a moment.

At this moment, the sound of cooking was suddenly heard in the kitchen. Xiangling woke up suddenly. It seemed that there was a drunkard who ran to the kitchen to cook.

Xiangling helped her father to sit up straight and hurried to the kitchen, hoping nothing would happen!

As soon as Xiangling entered the kitchen, she saw a stranger holding cold rice and eggs that he had gotten from somewhere, humming an incomprehensible song.

"Hey ~ Fried rice with egg ~ the simplest but also the most difficult ~ the rice grains must be separated ~ and also dipped in egg!"

The drunkard seemed to hear the sound of the door curtain being lifted, and spoke without even turning his head.

"Master Mao, let me show you my basic skills, so you can see how well I control the heat."

After he finished speaking, he threw the egg in his hand into the air, then chopped the air with the kitchen knife in his right hand, and a cold light flashed in the air.

The egg white, egg yolk and eggshell will fall to where they should go.

Xiangling couldn't follow Le Ran's next move and was dazzled.

With the sound of "clang clang" of the pot, two bowls of perfect egg fried rice were brought out.

Le Ran, feeling dizzy, subconsciously moved aside Xiang Ling who was blocking the door and went straight to Master Mao who was drunk and lying on the seat.

At some point, a young man appeared next to Master Mao, looking at the Erguotou bottle on the ground with some curiosity.

Xiangling, who was following Le Hou in a panic, was surprised when she saw that figure.

"Mr. Zhongli, why are you here?"

Zhongli looked at the bottle of Erguotou in his hand and said.

"I saw Master Mao passed out drunk here, and there was no one else at Wanmin Hall, so I was a little worried and wanted to help him clean up. Since you are here, Xiangling, I will leave."

With that, Zhongli stood up and was about to leave. Perhaps he was too absorbed in looking at the bottle, and he didn't notice the drunkard Le Ran who was holding two bowls of fried rice, and the two of them bumped into each other with a bang.

Two bowls of fried rice were flying in the air and were about to pour over the three people. Le Ran suddenly flew into the air and caught all the fried rice with the bowl in his hand without dropping a single grain.

"These two bowls of food are almost wasted. Brother Mao, get up and eat to calm down the drunken stink."

As he spoke, Le Ran slapped Master Mao on the body and subconsciously used his internal energy to expel some of the alcohol from Master Mao's body.

Master Mao jumped up with a start.

"Brother, keep drinking. We two brothers won't go home until we are drunk today."

Le Ran placed a bowl of egg fried rice in front of Chef Mao.

"What are you going to drink? If you drink anything else, you can only drink cooking wine. Hurry up...eat the food to suppress the alcohol smell and taste my cooking."

Then Xiangling and Zhongli saw two drunkards knocking their rice bowls together and toasting like they were drinking.

Xiangling quickly ran to Zhongli, lowered her head and said embarrassedly.

"I'm so sorry Mr. Zhongli, my father's friend was drunk and bumped into you."

Zhongli waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, took the glass bottle without any trace of any elements in his hand, turned around and was about to leave Wanmin Hall.
