Genshin Impact: I don’t have much time left, can we meet again?

Chapter 47 The Secret That Can't Be Said
"Mr. Su Luo, then... do you hate how you look now?"

Diona rubbed her teary eyes.

As a result, with the spicy alcohol on my hands, more tears flowed out.

But the pain caused by this stimulation also gave her the courage to ask this impolite question.

"Ask me, do you hate yourself now..."

This decaying body, from body to soul, exudes the smell of decay and filth. It is simply incomparable to the former self.

In other words, he had experienced even more terrible things in those three years, and had already taken life and death lightly, so he would not blame himself or others.

So his answer was: "I hate my old self."

He is very good now, except for this body.

He realized his wish to overthrow the laws of heaven, helped the traveler find his long-lost sister, and ended the fateful reincarnation of the Teyvat continent...

Now, to some extent, he is enjoying the blessings brought by victory.

Everyone respects him, and people from all over the world miss him.

But those little kids see themselves as idols who study hard.

The person I am now looks like the hero I most longed to be when I was a kid——

He had no reason to hate.

instead……

He hated his old self.

The self that "uses any means" to achieve the goal of victory has hurt many people, such as Captain Qin.

So much so that he needs to do his best to compensate them and win their forgiveness at the end of his life.

"Mr. Su Luo's level of life is beyond my reach in this life. You are like this cocktail. As time goes by, the taste becomes more mellow."

"Oh...what a strange metaphor."

Su Luo raised his wine glass, squinted his eyes, and savored the fine wine.

This familiar flavor, familiar taste.

And the name of the light cone weapon of Mr. Walter, who he was very familiar with during the three years he disappeared: In the name of the world...

Is this some kind of coincidence?
He doesn't know, and doesn't want to know.

As his life is coming to an end, he can no longer spare the energy and time to explore those secrets.

at this time.

In the lobby of "Cat Tail Tavern", loud music sounded.

The cheers and whistles of the customers penetrated the thick walls and door panels of the private room and poured into everyone's ears.

The rave party started downstairs.

However, the excitement tonight is destined not to belong upstairs.

Abedo asked with confusion: "Why can't I understand what you are talking about?"

"Here's the thing, Mr. Abedo..."

Mondstadt's bartending superstar Diona explains what's going on.

After listening, Sugar was surprised and said: "You mean, Captain Qin learned that we were coming to attend the reception and notified you in advance to entertain us with cocktails 'In the Name of the World'?"

"That's right. The recipe for this cocktail was actually given to me by Captain Qin." Diona bit her lip and confessed everything, "She also asked me to find a way to get you drunk."

Sugar looked at Albedo.

A smile appeared on the corner of the latter's mouth.

On the last night when Mr. Soulo was about to leave Mondstadt, Jean finally stopped being indifferent.

That's good.

At least Qin's attitude is no longer as decisive as before.

"But I still don't understand why you can drink it in one sip. The recipe comes from Captain Qin." Diona asked Su Luo for advice.

Su Luo replied meaningfully: "A secret that cannot be told..."

He raised the cocktail again and savored the sour and sweet taste.

The wonderful feeling coming from the taste buds seems to penetrate into the heart.

The ambiguous old time emerges like a spring.

An amber dusk three years ago.

The windmill southwest of Mondstadt was whirring and spinning, and there were a few kites wandering in the sky.

That weekend, there was no one at the Knights headquarters, and the whole building was quiet.

In Qin's office, the two of them were alone, listening to the singing of the children's choir from the West Wind Church, and had a leisurely drink.

That day he reminded Jean that alcohol was not allowed in the office.Qin said jokingly that such an opportunity is rare.

Qin took out the wine she usually collected——

The origins come from different countries and the flavors are also different.

Qin smiled and told him that many fine wines were given by businessmen who wanted to pursue her. They could not return them, so they kept them.

The result was two full closets.

He drank a slightly sour green plum mint julep from Liyue.

Qin habitually opened a bottle of dandelion wine with rock sugar added.

His teeth were weak from the sour taste, and he wanted to change to other tastes.

Qin said it shouldn't be wasted and suggested mixing them together to drink them, maybe they would have a different flavor.

So, before he could completely swallow the green plum wine, Qin took a sip of dandelion wine and kissed him directly on the lips...

He was indeed stunned that day, he didn't expect Qin to be so proactive.

The two wines with completely different tastes are mixed in this way to form a unique flavor of sour and sweet, sweet and sour.

Both of them liked it very much, were very satisfied, and tried it several times again.

Qin's face turned red with embarrassment, and her breathing became rapid. She woke up from the intoxicated and lingering state with her only sense.

With a bit of resentment, I told him that this was an office and that this was enough.

Then, he said that he wanted to give this new flavor of wine a name.

Qin finally decided to name it "In the Name of the World".

She hoped that this name would bless Su Luo's expedition with success.

She hoped that Su Luo could return safely.

……

Sulo will never forget the taste of this cocktail he co-invented with Jean.

This is a testament to their relationship.

Therefore, when he took the first sip, he knew that Qin had told Diona the recipe.

She actually wanted Diona to get her drunk...

What a childish trick!
But no matter how you say it, this heralds the first step for the two to resolve their feud.

It indicates that he will meet Qin next.

The first stop of this trip to his hometown was Mondstadt. He did not pray for Qin's forgiveness, but he hoped to have the opportunity to talk to her face to face.

He wanted to say "I'm sorry" to Qin face to face.

This is not a man's weakness or humbleness, but his responsibility.

Even Xiao Keli guessed her little thoughts——

While drinking the juice made from Sunset Fruit, he said with a bright smile: "Brother Su Luo, Captain Qin wants you to get drunk and then come to see you secretly, hehe."

Sugar and Ying'er secretly covered their mouths and chuckled.

Abedo pretended not to hear anything and clinked glasses with Timaeus, but the grins on their lips revealed their inner joy.

"no……"

"It's not what everyone thinks..."

Only Diona was depressed, with her head lowered and her cat ears hanging down weakly.

The expression on Su Luo's face froze, and he stared at Diona blankly, waiting for her next words.

Every minute and every second that followed seemed so long.

Su Luo felt that he had never experienced such suffering during the decisive battle with Tianli.

Finally, while everyone was waiting anxiously, Diona spoke sadly.

"Captain Qin...she told me..."

"After getting Mr. Su Luo drunk..."

Diona pinched the hem of her pants with both hands, as if she had exhausted all her strength.

The big tears couldn't stop falling one after another.

"Captain Qin said that while Mr. Su Luo was drunk, he would send someone to deport him..."

"Never come back!"
