The Lost People of Teyvat

Chapter 101 Black and red are also red

The second floor of the tavern.

"Brother Chen has a good relationship with Master Diluk?"

"Called friends."

"Oh no! I've delayed your business!" Tolansi slapped his thigh in regret and hurriedly reminded him, "Brother Chen, finish this cup and go back. There are not many opportunities to chat with Master Diluk. You can't miss it."

After he finished speaking, he paused and added as a remedy: "Of course, Brother Chen will definitely be as powerful as Master Diluk in the future. If you two talk more, it will be easier for us to cooperate in the future, right?"

Young people are generally arrogant, especially those who are really capable, who are even more arrogant.

Tolansi was worried that his words would not only be useless, but also arouse Chen Tianfeng's arrogance, making him refuse to communicate with Diluk or even say some angry words. That would be a good intention but a bad result.

"Don't worry, I understand."

Chen Tianfeng smiled without any arrogance.

Tolansi looked at him, and then he remembered that although Chen Tianfeng was young, he was quite mature in his behavior and thought he would not make any mistakes caused by youthful impetuosity. So he smiled and changed the subject naturally.

"But I really can't stay too long. I have an appointment and will be there soon."

Chen Tianfeng raised his glass and said with a smile: "Uncle Tolansi, please don't blame me for not wanting to stay longer."

"No way! Brother Chen's matter is more important."

Tolansi raised his glass and clinked it with Chen Tianfeng's, took a big sip, put down the glass, looked him up and down, and said with a smile: "Brother Chen has changed a lot. When I saw him just now, I almost didn't recognize him."

"Changed?" Chen Tianfeng was slightly stunned.

"Yeah, I feel a lot more relaxed, not so tense anymore, just like... just like..." Tolansi frowned, trying to find the right words, and finally his eyes lit up, saying, "I finally paid off my debts, and my life has a new direction and new goals!"

He smiled and winked at Chen Tianfeng: "Did you make new friends in Mond?"

"……Um."

Chen Tianfeng nodded without denying it, and smiled softly: "I have made some very good friends."

"That's great. Come on, come on, cheers! To friendship!"

"Well, to friendship."

"boom."

Oak glasses clinked.

Chen Tianfeng took a big sip and put down the cup, "What has Uncle Tolansi been busy with recently?"

"What else can I do? I can only take on some commissions outside the city." Torrance shook his head and sighed, "The rewards are a little higher, but the dangers are also a little higher."

"It is a dragon disaster after all."

"Yes, it is a dragon disaster after all."

Tolansi nodded, then looked around and lowered his voice: "Speaking of the dragon disaster, let me tell you something extraordinary. Brother Chen, don't think I'm bragging - I saw the dragon with my own eyes!"

"Oh?" Chen Tianfeng glanced at Tolansi's wine glass and estimated the credibility of his words: "Did you see a giant dragon flying in the sky from afar?"

"of course not!"

Tolansi denied it immediately and said in fear: "The dragon's claws were only this far away from my head at that time!"

He gestured with his hand and said, "Don't be afraid of being laughed at by Brother Chen. I was so scared that my whole body was stiff. I thought I was going to die like this! But who could have thought that the dragon not only didn't kill me, but also smashed several projection monsters that besieged us with one claw!"

"If the other brothers in the adventure group hadn't seen it, I would have thought I was dreaming!"

Tolansi drank the remaining wine in the glass in one gulp and said with emotion: "It's incredible!"

"Indeed, it's incredible."

Chen Tianfeng's eyes flashed.

If Tevarin was truly completely affected by the poisonous blood, it would be impossible for it to hold back, let alone lend a helping hand to those adventurers.

So, Tevarin is mad, but not completely crazy.

That’s right. This time the Abyss Cult was not involved. If it was just Durin’s poisonous blood, it wouldn’t cause Tevarin to completely lose his mind... So what did Wendy do?
Forget it. Wendy's words are of no reference value. This guy tells more lies than the grains of sand in the desert wind.

Chen Tianfeng collected his thoughts and chatted with Tolansi for a few words. Suddenly, he noticed that the atmosphere in the tavern became quiet for a moment, and he knew who had come.

"Uncle Torance, my friend is here. Let's talk next time."

"Go ahead, we'll talk next time!" Torance said goodbye to Chen Tianfeng with a smile, and then saw him walking straight towards the knight of the Knights Templar from the Lawrence family. He couldn't help but look surprised.

The friend that Brother Chen was talking about turned out to be her?!

That’s right, Brother Chen is from Liyue...Telancy took a sip of wine, thought about it, and felt that since they had become friends, it would be better for him not to remind them of anything, so as to avoid looking like a villain who was trying to sow discord.

"Captain Eula is still so punctual."

Chen Tianfeng greeted him, then asked in confusion: "Where is Captain Kaia?"

"Diluk stopped me. He said he wanted to talk to him about some bills."

Youla raised her chin slightly and pointed in the direction of the railing.

The table they booked was next to the railing on the second floor, with a wide view, allowing them to see most of the scenes on the first floor.

Chen Tianfeng ordered with the waiter beside him, then glanced at the bar on the first floor. Seeing the expressionless Diluk and the helpless Kaeya, he made a reasonable guess: "It seems that Captain Kaeya owes a lot of money for drinks. He can even let Mr. Diluk collect the bill personally. It's amazing."

Kaiya, who was sitting at the bar, noticed something. He looked up and saw Chen Tianfeng smiling and nodding at him. His face suddenly turned dark - although it was not very obvious. Then he raised his hand, pointed at Chen Tianfeng, and opened his mouth to make a few lip movements.

Chen Tianfeng retracted his gaze and smiled sincerely: "Well, Captain Kaia said that we don't have to wait for him."

“…That’s not what he meant.”

Eula glanced at him with amusement and said, "Just now when we were downstairs, Kaia was already complaining about you cheating him."

"Captain Kaia is drunk and talking nonsense."

"He hasn't drunk it yet."

"It's not the wine that makes you drunk, it's you who makes you drunk."

"What nonsense!"

Youla shook her head, watching the bartender bring drinks with a look that was neither cold nor gentle, and then hurried away. Then she looked around, and saw the customers were either curious, indifferent, or wary, and when they saw her gaze, they quickly turned their heads away.

"Captain Eula is still so popular in Mondstadt."

Chen Tianfeng poured her some wine and said, "As soon as you show up, you naturally attract everyone's attention."

"…Do you really think this is welcome?"

Eula glanced at him and snorted softly: "If possible, I would like you to experience this feeling of being 'welcome'."

"I'm afraid I don't have the honor to enjoy it."

Chen Tianfeng smiled, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then asked casually, "Captain Youla, have you ever thought about changing this?"

"Of course I thought about it, but it was useless."

Eula held the oak wine glass and laughed at herself: "I am Lawrence, the extremely evil Lawrence. It is not too difficult to get rid of this 'popular' status."

"No way. In my opinion, Captain Eula just lacks an opportunity." Chen Tianfeng said sincerely.

"What opportunity?" Eula raised her eyebrows.

"Does Miss Eula know Miss Barbara?"

Chen Tianfeng temporarily changed the subject and naturally changed the address.

"Of course, who in Mondstadt doesn't know Miss Barbara? She is a truly 'popular' person and an idol in Mondstadt."

"It sounds like Miss Eula is very envious of her."

"How could I... Well, I am a little envious." Youla pursed her lips, first avoiding Chen Tianfeng's gaze, then quickly turned back and glared at him: "How dare you expose a lady's thoughts like this, humph! I will remember this grudge!"

"Then, Miss Eula, do you want to become an idol like Miss Barbara?"

Chen Tianfeng took out an invitation letter that he had prepared long ago and handed it to Youla with a smile.

"What is this? Wind Poetry Band?"

Youla took the invitation letter, looked at the content, and then looked at Chen Tianfeng with a rare look of surprise: "Are you serious? Aren't you worried that I, a Lawrence native, will affect the reputation of your band?"

"It doesn't matter. Black and red are still red."

Chen Tianfeng waved his hand and said seriously: "Join us and you will have the opportunity to change the stereotypes of Mond residents towards you. Miss Eula, will you consider it?"
