To the eternal you

"Amm um~ so delicious~!"

The little purple-haired girl was sitting on a small bench, happily holding her bowl of rice and eating with great gulps.

"Hahaha~ I'm right! Come on, I'll break it down for you~"

Miss Walnut broke off another half of garlic and handed it to her, then propped her cheeks with a gentle smile.

"Sister Crab, Crab and Walnut~"

The little Highness's cute face was still stained with rice grains, and the braids tied behind his head were gently flicked, and he gnawed a mouthful of garlic from time to time, showing a satisfied expression.

"...Speaking of which, Your Highness, I heard from travelers that you seem to be quite a big shot at Inazuma's side!"

Hu Tao still held a cup of herbal tea in her hand, ready to serve it at any time.

"Hmph~Of course, everyone should listen to what your Highness says!"

The little Highness snorted proudly, put the bowl aside, then pointed at himself with his hands on his hips and said: "Besides, I am very powerful!"

"Oh, for example?" Hu Tao's heart was almost melted by the little guy, she raised her eyebrows and asked happily.

"I, I can eat five bowls of ramen!"

The little girl stretched out her hand, and her pink palm shook, making people want to pinch it, and then her eyes lit up again, and she stood on the small bench.

"And I also know a ghost brother who can stack the finished ramen bowls so high!"

"Hey~ Then he must be the object of your admiration!"

"That's not true. He looks stupid, and he will compete with me. The snacks of the loser will belong to the opponent, but fortunately, I am superior~ He will lose to me every time, and every time Dare to come to me again!"

"Puff haha, what is this, this hall master can do it!"

Miss Yiguan was just amused to watch the two live treasures, one big and one small, making a fuss, and at the same time occasionally making noises to tell the little ones to be careful.

Not long ago, the traveler brought the child to the Hall of Rebirth, accompanied by Ms. Yuhengxing. The two seemed in a hurry, and asked to find Mr. Zhongli. Fortunately, the Hall of Rewards, which had just finished preparing the gift ceremony, was very well funded recently. , and Mr. Zhongli, apart from going out once in a while, spends most of the rest of the time in the Pastoral Hall.

Now the traveler and Ms. Yuhengxing are talking with Mr. Zhongli in the back room.

"So, you just brought the kid back?"

Ke Qing couldn't help but twitched the corners of her eyes, her pretty face was unbelievable.

"I thought you were a person who would think twice before acting. You were controlled by your emotions and did such a thing. Do you know the consequences of doing so!"

"...Sorry, I really lacked consideration, but without her, I don't have the confidence to convince Mr. Zhongli."

Ying said dejectedly.

She didn't think that since she helped Liyue, she could let them wipe her ass for granted, not to mention that this matter is not something that Liyue can just settle now.

"Well, I didn't expect you to trust me so much."

Mr. Zhongli pondered for a while, then he looked through the wooden door and seemed to see two naughty guys outside, with a hint of hesitation on his brows.

"Now is not the time to ask Mr. Zhongli for help. Although he is knowledgeable, he is not omnipotent! The most urgent thing is to send His Royal Highness back, and then we can make a long-term plan."

Miss Keqing frowned, and then scolded unceremoniously.

"Well... no, why don't you just follow me to find Gan Yu after finishing this matter."

"Do you want to ask the immortal for help?"

"That's right, although Liyue is now in an era of human rule, the influence of the immortals has not receded half a bit. Whether it is consulting Gan Yu or the true kings, we may be able to get some solutions,"

Ying's expression changed a little, and then she asked with a little doubt: "I thought you would let Li Yue and I separate, or simply arrest me and send me back to Dao Wife."

"Stop talking nonsense. There are no ungrateful people in Liyue Seven Stars. It is true that you helped Liyue, but this favor is not what Liyue can do now, so all I can do is to do it in the name of private. You help."

Ke Qing's pretty face was taken aback for a moment, then she turned her face away and said pretending not to care.

"And you don't have to think about it too much. Apart from righteous help, I don't want to see Qibao being bound in a country whose hopes are stagnant."

"The age is the age of man, and man will be born, grow old, and die. But from the macroscopic point of view of life, there is no eternity that is static. I am afraid that such an idea is difficult even for gods. The irreversible cornerstone of the world, not the rules that the boss decides for employees, can be changed at any time."

"..." Ying blinked unexpectedly, even Mr. Zhongli looked surprised.

"What, what are you doing, looking at me with such disrespectful eyes?!"

Miss Keqing's pretty face flushed, and she couldn't help but coquettishly said.

"No, it's nothing, I just didn't expect Miss Keqing to have such a philosophical side."

Ying smiled mischievously, but it only attracted Miss Keqing's beautiful eyes. She shook her head, snorted softly from the tip of her nose, then stood up and prepared to leave.

"Okay, I'll go out to check the situation, you and Mr. Zhongli can talk first."

After all, without waiting for the traveler to answer, he opened the door and walked out, and even closed the door. The moment the door opened, the laughter outside also spread into the room, making Ying's expression more stable. .

"Mr. Zhongli... I hope to get your help."

"Well, do you know that my God's Heart has left, and now I have a God's body and no authority. If you want me to intervene in this matter by force, I'm afraid I will disappoint you."

Mr. Zhongli took a sip of tea unhurriedly, his amber golden jade eyes were a little helpless.

"What's more, this matter... is related to the will of their mother, daughter and sisters. Although the rock is entrenched in the earth, it is powerless to change the trajectory of the thunder and lightning."

"But if you set up a rock peak like a pinnacle, you can attract thunder and lightning."

Ying hurriedly followed.

"I don't want Mr. Zhongli to help me get Qi back. I just hope that you can establish a place where we can talk on an equal footing."

"But even so, according to what you said, the child is involuntary, how can you be sure that she will choose you?"

Mr. Zhongli's words made the blond girl's heart tremble.

"Maybe you don't know it yet, but I have to tell you first, before you, Qi's mother, that is, Balzebu, had already had such a relationship with her, and now you are the outsider who is intervening in this matter."

"Then...then I'm going to give up like this..."

Ying clenched her fists tightly, pursed her lips and looked at him.

"It's also up to you."

Mr. Zhongli's eyes were flat, even if he was told such an important matter again, he still didn't panic. Perhaps he had already foreseen such a future.

"You need me to provide fair and equal occasions, and I can indeed do it, but you also need to consider what you may encounter after that."

"Whether it's good intentions, the power to solve this matter, or a way to make them compromise, come to me when you are really ready. You are too restless now."
