Genshin Impact: I, the Winter's Executor, am forced to work.

"No problem, leave it to me."

"?"

Seeing that the handsome young man in front of her did not react to what she said at all, Ying'er nodded to herself.

No wonder he's someone who can juggle three relationships; even at this point, he remains completely unmoved.

"Miss Ying'er, after I deliver the perfume, may I come back and have a few more bottles made?"

"?"

What?! I underestimated him? This kid isn't just having three girlfriends at once, he's a harem king.

“This guest who came in winter is indeed very experienced. He has learned so quickly and is quite proficient. You really have a talent for this.”

"Hey, it's not that I'm not being modest, but to be honest, no one can match my experience in this area."

When D'Artagnan heard the undisguised praise, she naturally smiled happily.

After all, even his companions had praised his proficiency in various martial arts.

"Oh? You're quite bold, aren't you? Who would you like to give the perfume to? Would you like me to give you some advice?"

Ying'er became interested in this and kept testing Dadalia's bottom line.

"Could you please introduce yourself?"

"The first one... has a sweet and dreamy feel, which is the favorite of little girls. The second one smells noble and is the favorite of rich heiresses. The last one has a light and lingering fragrance, like the dim light and misty fog, which is most loved by mature women."

The young master fell into deep thought, his brows furrowed, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.

"Sir, do you have any other questions?" Ying'er was thinking about what other types of women besides the three mentioned above could be this man's backup options.

"Um, I'm sorry, I'm very satisfied with your perfume, but is there anything...?"

The young master's movements were somewhat hesitant, as if he found it difficult to utter the next words.

He approached Ying'er and asked in a low voice, "Do you have any perfumes that men like?"

"?"

"You're going to use it yourself?"

"No, I don't like this thing; I wanted to give it away as a gift."

I wonder if my partner will like this kind of thing? I can give the first one to Donya to try when I get back.

"???"

This time, it was Ying'er's turn to be completely confused.

I've been a player in Liyue for years, and this is the first time I've seen someone like you who has it all.

"Then I'll get another one of these perfumes. After I give one to my partner, he can give one to a woman he's close to."

"?"

Playing it so elaborately?

He's a master... I always thought I was overestimating him, but I always find that my imagination wasn't rich enough.

I concede defeat...

"It's a pity that everything I'm doing now is for another man. I'm basically working for him for free. If he and his partners didn't call each other brothers, I would have quit long ago."

"?"

Ying'er's mouth opened and closed slightly, but she no longer knew what to say.

"Then I won't bother you any longer. I apologize for venting a bit, but I know Miss Ying'er is a very honest person. Thank you for listening to me."

Tadalia smiled brightly, carefully holding the perfume she was about to use, and quickly left.

"..."

I originally wanted to remind my younger brother that he should think carefully about which foot to step into before trying to have three relationships, but now I realize that it's because I'm not skilled enough.

As the young master walked along the road, he kept thinking about some things that Zhongli had recently asked him to prepare in advance.

I never expected that the ritual of inviting immortals would require so many props. I thought my companions were already quite particular about the annual festival at the time of the Winter Solstice, but I never imagined that this guest elder of the Hall of Rebirth would be so knowledgeable.

Of course, it's also possible that the partner felt that overly complicated ceremonies would be irritating and ineffective, so they made improvements. After all, how could the partner not know as much as Zhongli?

D'Artagnan arrived at the Hall of the Dead and knocked rhythmically on the door.

"Here it comes! Oh, it's Tatalia."

Hu Tao was in a very good mood when she saw who it was.

After all, the expenses of the Rebirth Hall have decreased significantly recently, thanks to the strong support of the executive in front of us.

"Master Hu, is Zhongli working at the Hall of Rebirth today?"

He worked one day on and five days off, and on the only day he worked, he gave two lectures. He received more pay than everyone else and was treated as an honored guest by all the ritual officers of the funeral hall.

How can someone have such a good job, coming and going whenever they want and spending money from the funeral parlor at will?

"No, the old man went out a couple of days ago. He said that if you have completed the task he assigned you, you should rest for two days. He will come to find you in a couple of days and invite you to Wanmin Hall for a casual meal."

"..."

D'Artagnan's lips twitched.

He invited me to Wanmintang for dinner, and then I paid the bill for him, right?

For the sake of my partner's grand plan... I must endure, I absolutely must endure.

How did my friend comfort me back then? Oh right, anyway, it was money from a "rich person".

The young master's conflicted expression immediately relaxed.

However, as his companions had warned him before, if Zhongli wasn't constantly appearing in the same few familiar places, it meant that Liyue was also entering the middle stage of their plan...

"D'Artagnan, would you like to come and sit in my Hall of Rebirth?" Walnut invited him as he stood at the door.

"No need, Master Hu, you're too kind. I'll go home and rest for a while."

My friend kindly lent me his villa to stay in temporarily, so I can enjoy it for the next few days.

Then, once Zhongli has made the arrangements, we can fight to our hearts' content.

Sigh, after eating and drinking so much these past few days, my body is starting to feel rusty.

D'Artagnan couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation for the future.

Chapter 180: A Single Impression Reveals It's a Counterfeit

"So, why did it turn into you and me acting together?"

Qin Ye looked helplessly at Yura, who was traveling with him. The two had been silent all the way, and when they arrived at the adventurer's camp, they thought it was time to part ways.

However, it backfired.

He and his teacher Abedo just chatted, drank tea, and discussed the mysteries of alchemy. There was no need for others to get involved in such trivial matters.

Yura first gave a cold laugh, then waved her hand to indicate that the other party should not take it to heart.

"Although you don't seem to have any ill intentions, just to be on the safe side, I'll accompany you on this trip first. It will also prevent you from getting lost, and in the end, I can return you to Qin intact."

This is a lie.

The main reason was that she was unwilling to owe this person a favor because of the fight she had just had. She originally wanted to repay it by leading the way, but she did not expect that the man in front of her would be so familiar with the place.

It turns out this person wasn't truly directionally challenged, but rather foolishly rushed into the snow-capped mountain without any prior knowledge of its interior. What if they encountered any danger?

There's no other way, I'll give him a ride one more time.

"..."

Qin Ye could only nod silently. Anyway, it wouldn't have much of an impact. At worst, he could just keep it a secret when chatting with Teacher Abedo.

You don't think I'd stab Aberdo to death, do you?

The two followed the road upwards, and soon familiar alchemical tools came into view.

Aberdo was rummaging through something on the table, holding it in his hand and reading it carefully.

"Who?"

He seemed to sense Qin Ye and Youla approaching from behind and suddenly turned around to check.

"It's you guys."

He silently breathed a sigh of relief.

"Professor Abedo, is there any progress on the matter I asked you to handle before?"

Qin Ye smiled as he walked into the alchemy room and carefully observed the surrounding furnishings.

“I just received your report. It will take some time and I will personally test it. I also have some things to take care of here. I just finished dealing with them and am about to go out to gather material. You should go back to Mondstadt and wait for a while. I will come to see you in person then.”

"Oh~"

Qin Ye suddenly understood, and a smile appeared on his face at just the right moment.

Yura stood silently to the side, without interrupting.

She could tell that the two people knew each other and didn't have any fundamental hatred, since they didn't immediately start fighting when they met.

But...why does something feel so strange?

The atmosphere was tense. Abedo seemed a little guilty in front of Qin Ye, while Qin Ye kept putting pressure on him.

What's happening here?

Abedo silently walked outside.

"Wait, you can't leave."

As the two brushed past each other, Qin Ye reached out and pressed down on Abedo's shoulder, firmly restraining his movements.

"What, is there anything else?"

"It's not that I don't trust Abedo's abilities, but since we're already allies, it shouldn't be a problem for you to show me a thing or two, right?"

Qin Ye narrowed his eyes and forcibly straightened the other person's body so that he could stand face to face with him.
