To the eternal you

"The one who returns from the end of the clouds is indifferent to fame and wealth, with bright eyes and white teeth, swallows are jealous of birds, and he can see fire with insight. He is unparalleled in courage."

Ning Guang smiled lightly and replied one by one.

"The Tianheng battle that day really opened my eyes."

"The traveler who is enough to quell the Mond dragon disaster really deserves his name, even in the face of the executive officer who is surrounded by fools, he still has the upper hand."

To flatter each other, Ningguang is never shy to praise others. Rather, as a businessman, apart from business acumen and long-term vision, who can become a Seven Star without a smart tongue?

Even Ke Qing, who speaks the most bluntly, is also well versed in this. As the daughter of a big family, she is no worse than Ning Guang in this respect, but there are very few people who can get her praise.

And Ningguang could also see that when she praised the achievements of the traveler, the girl looked a little unnatural, and there was a trace of shame on her brows.

What she did was probably because seeing her intimate and praying behavior, the jealous jar in her heart was overturned.

She also has a solution for this.

Ningguang calmly put down the remaining crab shells, took a handkerchief and gently wiped her delicate fingertips, looking at the little girl with crab roe hanging from the corner of her mouth, she couldn't help smiling dotingly: "Qi Ke still like it?"

"Oh, no need, no need! If Sister Ningguang peels it off, won't it make me look like a child..."

The little girl shook her head again and again.

"Qi Ke is so cute. It makes me a little envious of travelers. With such a child around on weekdays, there must be a lot of fun in life."

Hearing Ningguang's active transfer of the topic, Ying replied pretending not to care.

"Ah, it's nothing, just feeding each other with Qibao occasionally, helping to wash her hair when taking a bath, and usually Qibao would act like a baby and want to sleep with me, which made me a little worried that I didn't give her enough sense of security. "

Although she said so, Ying looked at the little girl with a look of begging.

"It feels safe to be next to Sister Ying~"

Qi also didn't pierce the traveler's little arrogance and self-esteem, but just smiled softly and hugged the girl's hand, showing intimacy.

"Although Traveler and Qi are not related by blood, they are as close to each other as family members. If it is spread to Liyue Port, there must be ten people who admire each other."

Ningguang gracefully folded the handkerchief in half, then leaned over to gently wipe the crab roe from the corner of the little girl's mouth, and said softly.

"It's a pity, I don't know if there is such a broad existence as a traveler, is there still a place for me in Qi's heart?"

As soon as these words came out, Ying, who was originally so beautiful in her heart, once again risked her head——!

She couldn't help but look down at Qibao again, she was also very concerned about this answer... Except for Paimeng who was incarnate as a little glutton, eating and drinking, everyone present must be very concerned about this answer.

"Yes~"

The little girl had clear eyes, a soft voice, and stretched out her tender little palm as if showing off.

"Sister Ying, Sister Paimeng, Sister Ningguang, Sister Ganyu, Sister Keqing, Grandma Ping, Mr. Zhongli, and so many other people who love Qi, please remember them all~"

Although I really hope that there is only myself in my heart, but such a thought is obviously too selfish and unrealistic...

Ying just rubbed the girl's little head and didn't say much.

"Qiqiao colored glaze is full of brilliance, and the stars are as delicate as the dust of the heart."

Ning Guang folded the handkerchief and put it back in her arms, with a charming smile.

"Presumably all of Liyue's wealth would not be able to buy such a delicate heart."

"Now that I know that there is still room for me in Qi's heart, I don't know if I can go further—"

"No! Please travel with us!"

Ying subconsciously said that although she had never asked Qibao about these words, she must be able to get an affirmative answer.

She believed so firmly.

Ning Guang also stopped the movements in his hands, thoughts flashed in his eyes.

"Now that the traveler has spoken, I will not hide anymore. I hope to bring Qi to the Jade Pavilion, and I will devote my resources to cultivating her from a young age, so that she can become the next star of heaven."

As soon as this remark came out, even Paimon, who was eating happily, couldn't help but stop, looking nervously at Qibao.

"And I hope that you will think about it before refusing. Today's Liyue is different from the past, and Qi is not like you, a traveler, but a tourist."

"She's also had a tougher role than you might imagine."

She calmly picked up the teacup, took a sip, and waited for the traveler's answer, and she also believed that the other party should be able to understand.

To Liyue, Qi is not an insignificant single entity, but a bridge connecting two forces.

Now that Emperor Yan has left, Liyuegang's power is unprecedentedly weak. Even if she doesn't want to admit it, if she loses the protection of the three-eyed and five-manifested immortals one after another, Liyuegang's diplomacy with other countries will inevitably fall into a certain sluggish predicament middle.

Even if the next rock god will appear sooner or later, the relationship between the Liyue people and the fairy gods will definitely be different from the past at that time. Whether the old-fashioned immortals allow Liyuegang to get out of their own constraints and enter a new world is still an issue. It's an unsolved mystery.

At that time, all the efforts made at this time will be in vain, the law of change is like playing a game, and her ambition will also be hit hard head-on.

"...You hope that Qi will be the anchor point for Liyuegang to get through this storm, so that the relationship between immortals and humans can be closely maintained without overthrowing each other."

Ying asked calmly.

"After surviving the disaster, from a human point of view, we can gain valuable time for reform and the support of the immortals for Liyue Port."

"That's right. Originally, these words should have been narrated in the Jade Pavilion, but I think sooner or later, this issue will need to be considered by Traveler and Qi."

"From an objective point of view, the advantages of letting Qi stay in Liyue may far outweigh the disadvantages."

Ning Guang put down the teacup, raised her eyes slightly, her jade-colored pupils had a strong desire to explore.

"Traveler, what are your thoughts?"

"..."

Ying didn't take the initiative to think about this issue, just like when Mond was about to leave, she never hesitated or refused to take a step because of the friendship she had established with her friends.

After all, she is a foreigner. After reuniting with her brother, she will leave this world sooner or later.

At that time, would Qi, who had so many people in her heart, and even deeply in love with this world, be willing to leave with her?

"That... I think Qibao's opinion should be considered, right? If we randomly decide what Qibao will do in the future, or use an excuse for her good..."

Paimon put down the spoon in his hand, and his originally heartless and foolish appearance became serious now.

"I don't think it's fair to Qi Bao..."

Ningguang and Yingying naturally understand the truth that even Paimon understands, but in many cases, the clearer things are, the more deeply involved they are.

Just take Ningguang as an example, whether it is from a personal perspective or Liyuegang's perspective, praying that in addition to the stable and restless hearts of the people who are willing to stay, the public opinion so far can also be effectively dealt with, and fundamentally solve the current situation. dilemma.

But if Ruoqi left, even if he accompanied Liyuegang through the current difficulties, there were still many things to deal with in the follow-up. At this time, as the successor truly selected by the emperor, the importance of Qi is self-evident.

The law of the rule of man is by no means achieved overnight, but takes a long time to adjust and adapt to meet the current social conditions.

Just looking at Ke Qing, who thought she would be able to make a big move, is now exhausted to solve various affairs, and even has a bad idea, you can know that there is a long way to go.

Sitting between the two of them, Qibao also showed hesitation in his eyes.

To go or to stay?
