I write novels in Liyue

Zhongli pondered for a moment and then said.

After outlining the advantages, I offered some suggestions.

"I see, I've got it."

Hu Tao nodded, smiled, waved, and said, "Then go ahead and get busy."

"Well then, Master, you're busy too."

Zhongli nodded and turned to walk towards Feiyun Slope.

The maidservant standing nearby was stunned by what she saw.

One of the two went for a stroll on Feiyun Slope, while the other sat reading a book in front of the Hall of Rebirth.

They actually told each other to go about their business...

What are you up to?

Busy strolling around and reading?

This is too busy!

"Did you notice that Zhongli's back view looked a little different today than usual?"

Watching Zhong Li's retreating figure, Hu Tao was slightly taken aback, narrowed her eyes, and asked.

"Different? Are they?"

Miss Yi asked in confusion.

She didn't notice any change in Mr. Zhongli either.

Moreover, as far as she knew, Mr. Zhongli should have been reading Fang Qiu's "Your Name" in his room.

But "Your Name" clearly has a happy ending, so what changes could Mr. Zhongli have after watching "Your Name"?

Surely it's not that she's looking for a lover?

Well... Although Mr. Zhongli is so knowledgeable that he has studied for more years than most scholars, and his behavior is very mature, he is still a young man at the age of starting a family and career.

Thinking about it that way, Mr. Zhongli might indeed be...

"Have."

Walnut nodded.

His silhouette, silhouetted against the twilight, seemed somewhat...lonely?

……

Zhongli walked along the streets of Feiyunpo, where the place was bustling with activity, and before he knew it, he had arrived at Wanwenji House.

A gentle breeze blew by, and the sparse dust on the ground floated up.

"It's been a long time since I've had a drink."

Zhongli murmured.

He glanced at the taverns on both sides of the street and randomly chose one.

The tavern's decor was very elegant; it was more like a teahouse than a tavern.

After entering the tavern, Zhong Li chose a quiet spot by the window to sit down.

"Sir, what would you like to drink?"

"I am an intellectual proprietress dressed in a purple cheongsam," she asked.

What is it?

Zhongli said calmly.

"We have Mondstadt wine, Liyue wine, and Inazuma wine. Here is the wine list, which includes wines and some snacks to go with them. Please take a look."

The proprietress smiled slightly and placed the wine list in front of Zhong Li.

Do you have any recommendations?

After glancing at the wine list, Zhong Li said calmly.

"Which country are you asking about, sir?"

The proprietress was taken aback and asked.

"Ask them all."

Zhongli said calmly.

"Ask about all of them?"

The proprietress picked up the wine list, looked at it carefully, and said, "In Mondstadt, I think the Dandelion Wine, Apple Cider, and Wine are the best. As for Inazuma Sake, in Liyue, we have Daughter's Red, Bamboo Leaf Green, and Crimson Blossom. Which one would you like, sir?"

"Bring one of each."

Zhongli said calmly.

"One of each?"

The proprietress was immediately stunned.

"Ah."

Zhongli nodded, then paused for a moment and said, "Another serving of osmanthus wine, please."

"Sir, each serving of wine is quite large. Why don't you divide it up and finish your wine first before we bring more?"

The proprietress hesitated for a moment, then asked.

"No need."

Zhong Li shook his head.

"OK then."

The proprietress returned quickly with the wine jug.

The utensils from different countries are not exactly the same, and can be distinguished at a glance.

After introducing everything to Zhongli, the proprietress left.

Zhongli poured a cup of osmanthus wine.

After raising his glass and drinking it all in one gulp, a ripple appeared in Zhongli's usually calm eyes, but it quickly subsided back to stillness.

"It definitely doesn't taste the same as it used to."

Zhongli muttered to himself.

He looked at the remaining osmanthus wine in the glass, the amber liquid reflecting the flickering lamplight.

Just as he was about to continue drinking, a voice rang out.

"Excuse me, may I sit here?"

Zhongli looked up and saw a young man of about twenty-six years old. His face was gloomy and his eyes were red, clearly indicating that he had been crying.

He was holding a copy of "Your Name" in his hand.

The seat he was to sit in was opposite himself.

Please make yourself at home.

Zhongli nodded without saying anything more.

"Thank you."

The young man nodded and sat down quietly.

The wine he ordered was osmanthus wine.

After ordering the drinks and waiting for the proprietress to bring over several jugs, the young man didn't say another word, just silently drank his wine.

When he got emotional while drinking, he would occasionally shed a tear.

He didn't wipe away his tears, letting them flow down to his lips and mix with the wine as he drank it down.

One cup after another.

The young man continued pouring and drinking the wine without stopping.

Zhongli quietly drank his wine.

Finally, the young man got drunk and collapsed onto the table with a thud.

Zhongli continued to drink silently.

Just then, the young man, who was completely drunk, cried out and mumbled something incoherently.

"Xiao Lan, I'm sorry, I couldn't save you, there was nothing I could do... I'm sorry."

As he spoke, tears streamed down his face, and he clutched the cover of "Your Name" tightly in his hand.

Upon hearing the young man's words, a ripple of emotion stirred in Zhong Li's eyes once again.

After a long while, it finally turned into a sigh.

"I long to buy osmanthus blossoms and share wine, but alas, my old friend... When will we meet again..."

Zhongli sighed softly.

After saying that, he poured himself another glass of wine and drank it.

No more words were spoken.

Chapter 159 Thunder Movie

At this moment, Inazuma.

The orange-red sunset, about to sink below the horizon, struggled to radiate its light.

A gentle breeze blows.

As dusk falls, a time of solitude descends.

As the stars rose in the east, the entire Narukami Island gradually fell silent.
