Chapter 269 Seafood Party
"You want to go to the party? What are you going to do with that? Aren't you a grass eater?"
On Yujing Terrace, Ruoli looked at Ganyu in confusion.
King Ruota went completely crazy a thousand years ago, and Ganyu was just over three thousand years old, so she still knew Ganyu, although she had forgotten it in her own memory due to wear and tear.
"Ahem, little sister, please be more respectful when speaking to your elders."
Keqing, who was standing by, couldn't help but cough lightly to remind Ruoli.
Keqing is not an immortal. After the matter in Jueyunjian was resolved, she was unable to get close to watch, so she didn't know Zhongli and Emperor Yanwang, nor did she know that Ruoli was the Ruota Dragon King.
"Nothing, I just wanted to go over and take a look..."
"Keqing, don't you have anything else to do?"
Since Keqing was next to her, Ganyu didn't dare to tell the truth and had to ask her.
"Well, I got off work early today, and I saw you guys chatting here on my way home, so I came over to see you."
Keqing nodded and answered.
"Oh, I see. It's because Zhongli Laodeng is here, right?"
Ruoli thought about it for a moment and exposed Ganyu without hesitation.
"Ah... No, no, no, Xiaoli, don't talk nonsense..."
Ganyu was startled and waved her hands hurriedly to deny it.
I don’t know if it was because Ruoli was right or because he was worried about exposing Zhongli’s identity in front of Keqing.
However, Ganyu's reaction made Keqing's eyes widen.
Could it be that Ganyu... is in love?
This is the first time I’ve seen Ganyu react like this to a human since Keqing became one of the Seven Stars of Liyue.
From what Keqing knew, Ganyu had worked diligently in Liyue for thousands of years, but there had never been any rumors that she was in a relationship with anyone.
"Zhongli... is the guest official of the Wangsheng Hall..."
Keqing thought about it for a moment.
Indeed, the guest official was handsome, knowledgeable, talented, elegant, and kind to others, which was indeed the best mate choice for many women.
"Tsk, what's the big deal? If you want to go, just come with me. Who am I? If I bring a friend with me, who dares to say anything to me?"
Ruoli didn't care about Ganyu's reaction. She patted her chest and said to Ganyu.
"This……"
Ganyu really wanted to agree, but Keqing stayed beside her and refused to leave.
The Emperor does not allow the immortals to reveal his identity...
"Go, Ganyu, I'll go with you."
Keqing thought about it and said something to Ganyu.
She wasn't a gossiper, but she was very curious whether Ganyu was really in love...
"Eh? Why do you want to go too?"
Ganyu's heart tightened and she asked quickly.
Has it been exposed?
"Don't get me wrong, Ganyu. I just like eating seafood."
When Keqing saw Ganyu’s reaction, she immediately explained.
“Is, is that so…”
"Then let's go together. I'm counting on you, Xiaoli."
Ganyu nodded, believing Keqing's explanation, and then looked at Ruoli.
"Don't worry..."
"But you have to give me one of the crab legs in front of your table later, got it?"
Ruoli patted her chest, then rolled her eyes and said with a triumphant smirk.
Ganyu and Keqing naturally had no objection to this and agreed directly, so the two followed Ruoli to Changsheng Hall.
At this time, Zhongli, who was invited by Tartaglia to have a cup of tea, and the three immortals saw that the time was almost up, so they also came to the outside of the Hall of Rebirth.
"Uncle Zhongli, Aunt Xianyun, Uncle Houzhang, Uncle Jiehu, and uncle's friends, you are here!"
Yaoyao ran to the door to greet them.
Due to the instructions of the immortals, Yaoyao must call ordinary people she doesn't know by their aliases in Liyue Harbor, and Yaoyao will naturally not forget this.
"Huh? Why is there one person missing? Where is the short guy?"
Liu Bai poked his head out from behind Yaoyao. It was rare that he felt there was someone missing, so he subconsciously asked a question.
"…He was not feeling well, so he did not come."
Zhongli had no choice but to explain it this way.
After all, he was indeed "unwell".
"I see. Anyway, come in quickly."
Liu Bai nodded, then he and Yaoyao greeted them as they entered the house.
But before anyone could go in, a call suddenly came from the side.
"Wait for me! Don't start eating yet, I'm not there yet!"
Ruoli hurriedly ran over from a distance, and Ganyu and Keqing behind her had to hurry to catch up when they saw this.
Just like that, Ganyu and Keqing who rushed over looked at everyone in bewilderment.
"Why is Ganyu here? Doesn't she not eat meat?"
The three transformed immortals were somewhat puzzled.
"Ah, it's Master Liuyun and the others. This person is... the Fatui executive officer?"
"Two executive officers..."
Ganyu looked at the three immortals, and finally her eyes fell on Tartaglia.
"So many people... Wait? Why is this bastard here too... Could it be that he is the one who organized this? I forgot to ask Ganyu!"
'Another executive officer is here too!'
"I see... Was it a trap for Ganyu? Luckily I followed her, otherwise she would have been easily fooled!"
Only then did Keqing realize that the seafood party was organized by Liu Bai, and discovered that there was an executive next to them.
"Sister Ganyu, and Zimao... er, I forgot. Anyway, welcome, please come in."
Liu Bai still had some impression of Keqing, but he couldn't remember how to address her, but he still welcomed her.
"Sister Ganyu...?"
Liu Bai's use of this name surprised many people present.
Ganyu opened her mouth but gave up on correcting Liu Bai's address.
At least this name sounds better than "the blue-haired girl with horns". Anyway, many people call her sister.
"Haha, please come in, the aroma of the food is already wafting out to welcome us."
Zhongli chuckled at this time, diverting everyone's attention.
"Old Deng, what do you mean? What do you mean by two? Do you still have me in your eyes...Ah!"
Ruoli said something unhappily, but just as she finished her words, Zhongli tapped her head lightly.
Then she could only cover her head obediently and follow Zhongli into the house.
Liu Bai counted them briefly and found that there were fourteen people in total, including the chef Xiangling.
Although the table at home is big, it is obviously not possible for fourteen people to sit at one table.
After asking Nashida, Liu Bai decided to add another table, so that there would be seven people at each table.
Then we divided the food into two parts, one table for adults and one table for children.
So Liu Bai took Yaoyao, Qiqi, Ruoli and the others to sit at the table next to them. The remaining seats were for Nashida and Guoba respectively. Xiangling and the others would probably sit here after the dishes were served.
"Get up, you are the host, so you won't entertain the guests at that table? Leave this table to me, you go over there."
However, just as Liu Bai was waiting for the meal, Nashida came over, pulled Liu Bai up, and took him to sit next to Zhongli.
"But girl, who will peel the crab shells for you if I sit here..."
Liu Bai looked at Nashida aggrievedly.
"Let's talk about it after we've almost finished eating. Don't forget that Xiangling also made me a dish that doesn't involve seafood."
"Eat your fill first."
Nashida shook her head, gave some instructions, then got up and went back to the kitchen to help Xiangling and Guoba bring the dishes out of the kitchen.
