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

"?"

The mushroom beast's body was raised high, Qin Ye's arms were outstretched, and the sunlight shone on the mushroom beast's body, making it appear somewhat sacred for a moment.

"Next, I will introduce you to... the Little Lucky Grass King!"

Chapter 254 If your emotional intelligence is insufficient, ask a fool; if your IQ is insufficient, ask a duck.

Naxi Da was confused and coerced by Qin Ye, so she had no choice but to step forward and explain the situation to her own head of discipline.

Seno was naturally a cautious person, and at first he did not believe that the so-called Little Grass King could actually transform into a mushroom beast and walk in the world.

He was forced to believe it only after the other party demonstrated their divine power.

But he knew that the Little Grass King must also have her own difficulties. Her transformation into a mushroom beast to roam the world was a testament to her extremely difficult situation at the moment.

Although he didn't like Qin Ye, since the Little Auspicious Grass King and this man could now be considered an alliance, he decided to take the merchants back first and then secretly investigate on his own.

Sino wasn't the kind of man who would be fooled by others; he was better at investigating things himself, finding the real answers, and then bringing everything to a close with his own judgment.

"Qin Ye, are you just going to let him go like that?" Nasida wasn't exactly worried, but she was afraid that he might be recruited into their forces and imprisoned by others.

If the Grand Disciplinary Officer were imprisoned or harmed by the Order of the Church as a result, she would probably not be able to forgive herself and would definitely go to rescue him personally.

"That's right, otherwise how would we deal with so many businessmen? You don't really think that I, the dignified CEO of Zhidong, am here to do charity, do you?"

The courier is responsible for shipping and delivery, and then the other party has to pay upon delivery, especially since there's a possibility of being reneges on the payment. He won't do a losing business like that.

These businessmen were never part of his plan.

"I know a little bit about that Seno, so he's definitely not going to cause any major problems. My only goal is to get him out of the way."

That kid could be considered stubborn in some ways; he would never give up until he had investigated the matter thoroughly.

He probably still thinks I might be trying to fool him, and wants to find out everything himself, right?

As long as you remain neutral and don't betray me, there won't be any problems.

As for what will happen next...

Isn't that your own business in the Faculty of Law?

Family matters are not within my jurisdiction.

"I see. So he's more likely to die if he gets involved in our big events? Or you're just being thoughtful."

Naxi Da nodded gently and broke free from Qin Ye's embrace.

"..."

Oh no, I haven't had enough of holding her yet. I'll wait until I have a chance to get her out of the Pure Goodness Palace before I can hold her again. She'll definitely feel much more comfortable than the mushroom beast.

"However, now that things here are settled, I may have to go back to Sumeru City first. This time the interval between my departures is a bit long, and I'm afraid there might be some danger in the city, so I must go back and check it out first."

Nasita's tone was already somewhat anxious, which could be seen from the fact that she had just used very rough methods to prove that she was the Little Grass God.

"That's natural. I have a little grudge against the Abyss. I still need to investigate their situation. If any problems arise during the Sumeru period, just call me over."

I can't give Dotole too much time now. I'll find an opportunity to go against the grain, launch a surprise attack, and catch him off guard.

There's a saying that goes something like that.

Better to kill a thousand innocent people than let one guilty person go free.

Qin Ye cleaned up the traces at the scene and leaped into the distance.

Port of Omos

Tatiana had already packed her luggage. She understood that Qin Ye's delayed return meant something was about to happen, so she finished packing in advance.

If she misunderstands, it'll come in handy later anyway.

"By the way, Columbia, when I bought something from Miss Dolly before, I received a gift from her."

The girl took out a gauze skirt, a shawl, and a... from the mirror door.

Embroidered with lotus flowers... a crop top?

The girl held it in her hands with a puzzled look, staring blankly at the type of clothing she had never worn before.

"It's said that the design came from Liyue. It's a pity that I didn't have time to learn dance when I was in Liyue, otherwise I would have bought it there and even compensated that shady merchant with 100 Mora."

Tatiana muttered with some dissatisfaction, "Liyue is so much more comfortable. You can just sign your name on the receipts from the Northern Bank when you buy something."

I always feel guilty whenever I spend Brother Qin Ye's money.

"I see, you want me to learn dance from you?"

Columbia finally understood what the other party meant. Since the tulle skirt had already been purchased, that must be the only meaning.

After all, you can't just go shopping wearing a bellyband...

I might accidentally clear out all the people on the street.

"Oh? Are you trying on new clothes...?"

Qin Ye looked at the clothes in the girl's hands with some confusion, and fell into deep thought.

"Brother Qin Ye, please don't misunderstand. These are dance costumes prepared for Lady Columbia so that she can learn to dance with me later. I also bought one for myself."

As she spoke, Tatiana pulled out another set of clothes.

"..."

I understand the logic, but why are you only wearing a strapless top? What kind of dance are you planning to do?

No, suddenly I feel like I'm the one in danger.

Qin Ye clenched his fist, put it to his mouth, and coughed lightly: "There are indeed some things to deal with next. Let's leave Omos Port for now and head north to Vimo Manor to gather some information."

“Vimo Manor... I remember Trofin is over there…”

Tatiana naturally remembered the children who had come from the orphanage, especially Trofin, after all, he had volunteered to work in Sumeru a long time ago and was a very ambitious child.

Although Qin Ye had already realized that the child was taking a shortcut because he might not be able to achieve great merit in the other five kingdoms...

However, it doesn't affect his work ability, which is still quite good.

For the second-in-command to rate him as "quite capable," Trofin Schneitzevich must indeed possess genuine talent and ability.

"Yeah, if it weren't for the Adventurers' Guild keeping an eye on things for us, I would have thought that kid died in Sumeru."

He has been in Sumeru for over a year and hasn't even written a letter to his brother. He is hopeless.

"Hehe." Tatiana couldn't help but laugh, covering her mouth with her finger: "You know, that child is a little clever with strangers, but when facing his own people, he can be said to have absolutely no emotional intelligence."

"Hehe." Columbia suddenly laughed out loud, it was unclear what had triggered her laughter.

"..."

I suspect someone is disparaging me, but I have no evidence.

Is it that I lack emotional intelligence when I treat my own people? It's called being cautious and prudent, which is precisely because I treat my own people too well that such a misconception arises.

Saying I have low emotional intelligence is simply a blatant slander against me, a fool!

Chapter 255 Forgotten Homeland, Fellow Villagers

Qin Ye led Columbia and Tatiana onto a small boat and headed north along the river, soon arriving at the peaceful and tranquil Vimo Manor.

"I wonder where that kid Trofin is. Tatiana, remember to keep an eye on him for me. If a girl named Lana makes any strange requests, stay far away from her."

"Don't worry, Brother Qin Ye, I've kept your instructions in mind."

Tatiana nodded respectfully and turned to step into the mirror.

"Qin, what about us?"

"Although I really want to say not to wander around, because if I encounter any strange characters, I might run into trouble. But since I've come to this peaceful little village, I should at least find a place to rest and enjoy the natural scenery."

Even though there are undercurrents within Sumeru City and the abyssal rats are waiting for their chance, I can still live a very comfortable life. Balancing work and rest is one of the essential abilities of an executor.

(far away)

With her years of experience in finding people, Tatiana located Trofin in just a few movements.

"This kid, no wonder he forgot to contact Brother Qin Ye, I never expected this..."

The young man scratched his head sheepishly, chatting and laughing with a girl dressed as a forest ranger.

A cheerful smile was a common sight after Qin Ye took over the Hearth House, but Trofin's slightly lowered head and the occasional glance at the girl made Tatiana instantly understand.

But she didn't care whether the boy was in a relationship or not, and was about to take a few steps forward to take him away.

"Ok?"

She suddenly stopped because she seemed to hear the word "Lana" coming from that Trofin boy's mouth.

Why is the important target that Brother Qin Ye just mentioned connected to this kid...?

The girl fell silent and hid behind a nearby house, pondering deeply.

Ten seconds later...

That's it!

Tatiana clapped her fists together, her face showing a look of sudden realization.

It turns out that Brother Qin Ye already knew that Trofin had a sweetheart all along!

So the reason I shouldn't contact Lana is that I don't want my relationship with Qin Ye to cause trouble for theirs.

As for why we shouldn't accept Miss Lana's request...

She nodded to herself.

Because that way, Trofin wouldn't have a chance. After all, Qin Ye can accomplish anything with ease.

Brother Qin Ye is indeed the gentlest brother in the world. He even spoils this brat who doesn't know anything about him. He not only gets the Adventurers' Association to pay attention to his situation, but he also knows everything about his love life.

As expected, the gap between me and that person was like an insurmountable chasm. I didn't know the whole story until I saw Trofin and Lana talking.

Tatiana silently crossed her arms, leaned her back against the wall, and idly rolled the heels of her high-heeled boots on the ground, her slender fingers gently stroking her silver-white hair.

"Hey..."
