Genshin Impact: Return of the Immortal Realm starts with being chased by Shadow

After Pingyun packed up a room for him, the two of them sat around the living room.

She took out a few bottles of wine.

"Hey, brother Anian, do you want to come have some drinks?"

"Didn't you promise me not to drink before?"

"If you are happy today, just let me drink a little."

"Okay, but only a little."

"Yeah! (?▽?)"

After just a few sips, Pingyun's cheeks were already flushed.

Lin Jinnian was not surprised by this. She was the kind of person who loved food and drinks.

Privately, he calls her Zhenjun who can't drink.

If you let her drink it often, something will happen sooner or later.

After drinking a few more drinks, Pingyun said drowsily.

"A-Nian... tell me your story, how have you lived these years... hiccup..."

"The Journey to the West you told me before... I had people copy it and read it over and over again, and I got tired of it a long time ago..."

Lin Jinnian didn't refuse, and after finishing the glass of wine, he spoke happily.

"The first thing I said when I got there was 30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi, don't bully young people into poverty..."

……

At some point, he came back to his senses and realized that Ping Yun next to him had already fallen asleep on the table.

I was talking about loneliness.

Her sleeping face was very beautiful, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, her red lips pouting, and she made soft calls.

"A-Nian...A-Nian..."

There was still some alcohol on Qiong's nose.

She slept peacefully, yet defenseless.

That's why Lin Jinnian didn't worry about letting her drink.

He had no choice but to carry her back to the room, cover her with a quilt, and blow out the candles.

Then go back to the living room and sit down.

It was quiet all around.

He stared blankly at the empty wine glass without making any movement.

I don't know what to think.

Smiling indifferently, pouring and drinking with a solitary lamp.

Chapter 23 Long time no see, Emperor Yanwang!

The next morning, Pingyun struggled to get out of bed until the sun shone on her face through the window.

Shaking his head.

The hair that was originally tied up very delicately was all scattered.

who I am?where am I?What am I going to do?

Her eyes were dull and distracted, and she just stared at the dressing table in a daze.

Lin Jinnian happened to come to her room door and saw this scene, which he couldn't bear to look at.

He put his hand on his forehead and didn't want to look anymore.

This is the sequelae caused by Pingyun's drinking, like a person who cannot take care of himself.

That's why he forbids her from drinking...

He was obviously an immortal but could be so drunk. He always wondered if Pingyun had any special physique.

After seeing Lin Jinnian, the dazed Pingyun sat obediently on the bed and stretched out her hands.

"hug me……"

Seeing that Lin Jinnian was indifferent, she immediately squeezed out tears again.

"Woooo..."

Haven't you woken up yet...

Lin Jinnian sighed and had no choice but to step forward and let her hold him.

She hugged his waist tightly and was satisfied.

However, as time passed, Pingyun gradually woke up and realized what she had just done, and let go of Lin Jinnian with a red face.

Lin Jinnian educated her.

"You didn't drink while I was away, right?"

"Of course not. I have kept my promise."

She shook her head, looking a little disappointed.

"Because I know that no one will cover me when I'm drunk."

"I won't see you when I wake up...and no one will help me comb my hair..."

The two were silent.

In the end, it was Lin Jinnian who broke the deadlock.

"Turn around and sit down."

"Oh……"

He picked up the comb on the side and began to comb Pingyun's hair.

Three thousand blue hairs brushed through his fingertips, and he gathered the scattered hair strands one by one.

After tying up his hair, he touched Ping Yun's head.

Pingyun pouted dissatisfiedly.

"Obviously I am the sister..."

"Then you don't want to touch your head?"

"think……"

Lin Jinnian's touch on her head gave her a very comfortable and reassuring feeling.

She also peeked at Lin Jinnian through the mirror on the dressing table.

It feels like brother An Nian is more handsome than before?

Pingyun's expression turned from joyful to melancholy.

Of course Lin Jinnian didn't know what she was thinking, and he couldn't read minds.

I just heard her say.

"Brother Anian, if I become an old woman, will you dislike me? Just like you did when you saw me yesterday."

Lin Jinnian didn't know why she asked such a question, but she still said it.

"What's the point? Who in the world won't grow old?"

"If you want to see me grow older, I can change now. Maybe you will still dislike me."

As he spoke, Lin Jinnian used his spiritual power, and his appearance quickly aged.

His hair gradually turned white, his face became more wrinkled, and his body became a little stooped.

But his heroic spirit can still be seen.

Pingyun grabbed his wrinkled hand without hesitation and said seriously.

"How could it be! I will never dislike brother Anian!"

"Haha."

Lin Jinnian changed back to his original state.

"Isn't that right? I won't dislike Sister Ping either."

Hearing this, Pingyun happily stood up and hugged him.

"Hehe, I know brother Anian is the best. Come on, give me a kiss."

Lin Jinnian pushed her face away with slight disgust and walked out of the room.

"Okay, I've prepared a meal for you. Get up, brush your teeth and wash your face, then eat by yourself. If it's cold, warm it up. I have to go out for something."

"Huh? When did you know how to cook?"

"I studied a little in my free time."

"Then I will have a good taste!"

……

……

Lin Jinnian was walking on the busy streets, with vendors constantly selling things to him.

It's a pity he has no money.

He was going to meet the Rock King Morax.

This god has protected Liyue for 700 years throughout its history.

He was also the one who signed the contract with him back then.

I don’t know if he retired.

As for where to find him, it shouldn't be difficult if it's just somewhere watching a play or listening to a book.

……

At Yunhan Society, Zhongli sat under the bleachers, admiring the exquisite performances above and sipping the fine tea from the cup.

It's nice.

Next to him, there was an empty chair, which was specially reserved for people.

He estimated that the person who signed a contract with him who had disappeared for hundreds of years should appear today.

However, when I sensed the presence of that aura not long ago, it seemed to be much stronger than I thought...

He himself is not sure whether the contract is still binding on him and whether the other party will abide by the contract.

As the patron saint of Liyue, it was necessary for him to meet him to confirm whether he had any ill intentions towards Liyue.

And just when Zhongli put down his teacup, someone happened to be walking next to him.

Wearing a white brocade robe and holding a jade fan in his right hand, he stood proudly.

With his eyes on the stage, the fan flapped slowly in his palms along with the music.

It was Lin Jinnian.

Since it was easy to identify, he knew that the performer playing tricks on the stage was Yun Jin without asking.

Her excellent skills and operatic voice are really enjoyable to watch, and she is worthy of being a famous actor in Liyue opera.

He sat on the chair and poured himself a cup of tea very naturally.

"Long time no see, Emperor."

"Well, it's been hundreds of years."

silence.
