Chapter 27: The Conflicted Ganyu

Ganyu looked at the two people who were talking at Sanwan Buguogang.

The steps are hesitant.

If it were five hundred years ago, she might not have had such emotions.

But after that battle, she also met the real Rock King Emperor, who had always appeared in the form of a dragon, now an ordinary person named Zhongli.

She also learned from her master that Emperor Yan Wang, like Ping, entered Liyue with a hidden identity.

So under normal circumstances, Ganyu would naturally not disturb Zhongli.

Even after five hundred years, Ganyu had only seen Zhongli a handful of times due to her work.

This time she came here because she learned from Ningguang that the Eightfold Son of God had visited Liyue, so she came here.

But she didn't expect that the thing that troubled her would happen again. The Emperor and the Eightfold Son of God were talking together.

Yae Shinko stood up and rescued Ganyu with a smile.

With outsiders around, he naturally could not lose his identity as an ordinary person in Zhongli.

Ganyu knew that she couldn't escape, so she could only stiffen her body and sit between Zhongli and Yae Shinto with a nervous mood under the gaze of Zhongli and Yae Shinto.

It wasn't that she wanted to sit between the two of them, but there were only four seats at this table, and Yae Shen Zi and Zhongli were sitting opposite each other, so it would be the same no matter where she sat.

"Sister Shenzi...you..."

"Emperor...Mr. Zhongli——!"

Before Ganyu finished speaking, Zhongli also made a gesture of invitation to Ganyu: "Secretary Ganyu, please..."

"It turns out that it is the legendary Secretary Ganyu who has come to visit. I have heard of your great name for a long time. After meeting you today, I can see that you are indeed extraordinary."

"I, I, am here to meet a friend..."

"Isn't this Ganyu's secretary?" The shopkeeper came to Ganyu first and asked her flatteringly,
"I wonder why Secretary Ganyu has come to visit?"

Even though Ganyu knows herself, she still needs to put in enough effort to keep up appearances.

"Um, Emperor... Mr. Zhongli, Sister Shen Zi... I..."

It’s not right to go up, and it’s not right not to go up.

"Secretary Ganyu, please take a seat."

"Mr. Zhongli, Ganyu should be here to see me."

"I……"

Halfway through her words, Ganyu realized she had said something wrong and lowered her head with a blushing face.

Ganyu was left at a loss by Zhongli's actions.

As soon as Ganyu sat down awkwardly, Zhongli immediately stood up and bowed to Ganyu.

After thinking it over again and again, Ganyu gritted her teeth and walked forward.

Perhaps some people in Liyue may not know the Eightfold Son of God, but Ganyu, the Seven-Star Secretary, is known to everyone in Liyue.

When Ganyu heard this, she looked at Yae Shinto with gratitude.

But the conversation that followed between the two left Ganyu dumbfounded again.

"Oh? I didn't expect you to know Ganyu's secretary, who has the same noble status as Qixing in Liyue." Zhongli pretended to be surprised.
"Could it be that you are the legendary current chief priest of Narukami Grand Shrine, Yae Kamiko-sama, who is also on good terms with Ganyu's secretary and has an equally distinguished status?"

"Yes, but her status is not that noble. She is still far inferior to Ganyu." The Eightfold God Son spread his hands slightly, pretending to be helpless.

"After all, I'm just a poor guy working for Narukami, and I don't even get paid."

Gan Yu: "..."

Ganyu was numb. At first she thought that the Eightfold Son of God was there to rescue her, but she didn't expect that the other party would work in unison with the Emperor to plot against her.

For a moment, she felt like she was in a dream. Why would the Emperor whom she admired and her sister, the Son of God, with whom she had a good relationship, speak like this?

Ganyu began to doubt her life—oh no, she began to doubt her Qilin life.

"No, no." Zhongli shook his head slightly, and then refilled his teacup.
"It is a great honor for Zhongli to meet you two today. Please allow me to offer you a glass of tea instead of wine."

Ganyu: “!!!”

Upon hearing this, Ganyu quickly stood up and waved her hands around in front of her.

Her big eyes were filled with panic. If there were no one else around, she would have knelt down in front of Zhongli.

"Mr. Zhongli, you can't do this, you can't do this~"

Ganyu's strenuous efforts to dissuade him failed to change Zhongli's decision.

Under Ganyu's defeated gaze, Zhongli drank the tea in his hand.

Gan Yu: "..."

[Ganyu's emotion value +999]

Yae Shinto glanced at Ganyu in surprise. She didn't expect that Zhongli's behavior would also cause her to receive emotional points from Ganyu.

Is it because I was also instigating this?

If that's the case, then does collecting emotion points come faster?
Thinking of this, Yae Shinko couldn't help but reveal a fox-like smile.

After completing this process, the three of them sat down again.

However, compared to Zhongli and Yae Shenzi, two ordinary people who talked from time to time, Ganyu, a distinguished seven-star secretary, kept his head down and remained silent.

"Zhongli, what did you mean when you said that Mondstadt's drunkard was talking about me?" Yae Shenzi thought of something and looked at Zhongli, who was leisurely drinking tea and listening to music, in confusion.

"I don't think I had much contact with him, right?"

"I don't know the specific reason of this matter, but he told me that if you want to know, you can go directly to Mondstadt." Zhongli paused while drinking tea, then answered in a flat tone.

"So that's how it is. I'll go to Mond later to take a look."

Yae Shinko stroked his chin thoughtfully.

She felt that Zhongli must be hiding something and that he also knew about Wendy's affairs.

But why doesn't the other party tell her now?
Instead, he asked her to go to Mond to ask Wendy in person?
"Sister Shen Zi, are you leaving Liyue?"

When Ganyu heard this, she didn't care about the confusion in her heart and quickly raised her head.

"Ah."

"Will you not stay for a while longer?"

"I'll contact you when I get back." Yae Shinko smiled at Ganyu and took out a beautifully packaged box.

"This is the fresh sea lingzhi I brought you from Inazuma."

"Thank you, thank you."

Ganyu was flattered. She didn't expect that the other party would [smuggle] to Liyue and still bring her fresh sea Ganoderma lucidum.

It means that the other party still cares about her.

"You're welcome, as long as you like it."

Yae Shinko smiled and touched Ganyu's head.

"Son of God, sister..."

"No, don't touch my head..."

Listening to Ganyu's words, Yae Shinto felt very benefited.

She also learned from Yaesakura's memory fragments that after she met Ganyu, she called herself her sister.

Ganyu also admires the other party's strength and is grateful for the other party's assistance to Liyue.

This made Ganyu, who was thousands of years older than Yae Shinto, willingly call her sister.

Later, every time Yaezakura came to Liyue, she would bring good things for Ganyu and take care of her like an older sister.

From then on, Ganyu gradually accepted the identity of Yae Shinko as her "sister" from the bottom of her heart.

Zhongli naturally sensed that the person who had come to Liyue Harbor before was not the Eightfold Son of God himself, but he did not mention it.

Now that I meet the Eightfold Son of God again, he still has memories of Liyue and Ganyu.

Zhongli soon came up with his own speculation.

In his opinion, it was enough to say that the one from five hundred years ago and the one he saw now were both the Eightfold Son of God.

So, he didn't point it out at this time.
