Modern Teyvat, bound to the Abyss Spiral

dong dong dong.

There were hurried footsteps at the stairs.

Keqing took two steps at a time and trotted down from the upstairs.

Old Yuhengxing looked up and found that his granddaughter was already dressed neatly, except that the toothpaste foam at the corner of her mouth had not been wiped clean.

"Go look in the mirror. Where are you planning to go to have some fun in such a hurry?"

This was purely a joke from Old Yuhengxing. Ever since he told his granddaughter to spend less money at the banquet that night, the family had not spent any money at all. Instead, they had done several big things in Liyue.

Fight against the Abyssal Water Apostles to rescue the banquet guests, sneak into the masquerade club and find the Winter Spy.

Now Keqing has made some name for herself in Liyue with her own abilities.

Keqing looked in the mirror, took the tissue that Butler Chen had prepared long ago, and wiped her mouth: "Thank you, Uncle Chen!"

After saying that, she hurriedly took a seat, picked out a few crab roe soup dumplings, and took a bowl of shrimp and millet porridge, and buried her head in eating.

"That guy told me last night that he had something to do today and asked me not to go to him."

Everyone present knew who the guy Keqing was talking about was.

"Then don't go."

Old Yuhengxing sounded a bit jealous. When he thought about the fact that his granddaughter had called him these past two days because of that guy, his mood became even more complicated.

"That won't do!" Keqing devoured the cooled crab roe bun in one gulp. "Only those who've been around him long enough know that he always gets into some bizarre things. He must think I'm too much trouble and wants to get rid of me so he can secretly do something bigger!"

Butler Chen saw that Old Yuhengxing was speechless and stepped forward to remind her, "Miss, you have only known each other for two days."

"It's only one day and two nights, but that doesn't stop us from being friends now, good friends!"

Keqing finished the breakfast in front of her in just a few words. She wiped her mouth and looked at the housekeeper Chen who was standing beside her.

"Uncle Chen, do you have any other cars at home? He said that car is too flashy and not suitable for commuting. I agree. People in his line of work should keep a low profile."

Old Yuhengxing closed the newspaper and lowered his head to eat. The dishes on the table were obviously his favorites, but he just couldn't muster up an appetite.

"Yes, a Porsche just arrived."

"That's it. I have to go to his house early this weekend and block the way!"

Keqing took the car keys and hurried to the garage.

"Have you been to that kid's house?" Old Yuhengxing suddenly asked.

"The young lady asked me to check last night." Butler Chen answered truthfully.

"Tsk tsk, it looks like he's already spent money on it."

"No, the lady said that's what only a love-struck person would do."

Old Yuhengxing said nothing and glanced at Butler Chen.

Butler Chen coughed dryly a few times and told the truth: "I bought a set of clothes for the masquerade club, a total of 11 Mora, and the lady paid for it."

"Yeah, that's what a love-brained person would do."

Old Yuhengxing put down his bowl and chopsticks, got up and went out.

Although he only ate a few bites, he was already full.

At Chihu Rock, Keqing successfully blocked Li Qingping who had just left.

"Let's go, get in the car!"

Looking at Keqing wearing sunglasses in front of him, Li Qingping felt like the sky was falling.

"Miss, do you know what I'm going to do today? I'm blocking my door!"

"Don't worry about what you're doing, just send me the address and we'll go."

Okay, okay, let’s play like this, right?

Li Qingping sneered and sat in the passenger seat.

"Yujingtai."

"Finally, the case has been traced to Yujingtai!"

A gleam of light flashed in Keqing's eyes. She had already imagined the scene of catching the Liyue termite from Yujing Terrace in her mind.

"I'm going to investigate a ghost case and see my grandma at Yujingtai."

Keqing: ???

Volume 1: 39. Marriage Certificate

Keqing drove all the way to Chihu Rock at a speed of 20 miles per hour, and then drove back at the same speed.

She stopped the car in front of the address given by Li Qingping.

"You wait for me here, or go for a walk around the corner. I'll try to come out as soon as possible." Li Qingping gave a few instructions and got out of the car.

He just wanted to scare Keqing and had no intention of actually taking her in to meet her grandmother.

"Ah."

Keqing was also not prepared.

Li Qingping's grandmother's house is at the junction of Yujingtai and Feiyunpo. Coincidentally, it is very close to Yunxinju where Shen He lives, about less than one kilometer away.

Li Qingping's grandmother's house is not big. From the outside, it looks like it can only accommodate two or three people, but the location is very good and it is priceless.

When Keqing saw Li Qingping walk in, she didn't plan to go shopping. She put down the chair and prepared to lie down and rest.

But at this moment, a delicate little girl popped her head out from the car window.

The little girl has a bun on her head and two big watery eyes, she looks very cute.

"Beautiful big sister, are you Brother Qingping's friend? Why don't you come in and sit with me? It's okay, Master is a very nice person, you can go in with Yaoyao!"

The little girl who called herself Yaoyao was very enthusiastic and was holding an equally cute little doll in her hands.

Keqing lowered the car window, ready to refuse.

At this moment, she saw the doll in Yaoyao's arms move.

"Yuegui, stop making trouble. This is the first time I see Brother Qingping with his friends around him, you have to be polite!" Yaoyao pouted and whispered a lesson to the doll named Yuegui in her arms.

As a doll, Yuegui seemed to understand what Yaoyao was saying and actually nodded.

Keqing was surprised, realizing that the origin of Yuegui was extraordinary, and it seemed to be made by some immortal. The mechanism in it was more sophisticated and complicated than the watch borrowed by Li Qingping.

"Your master is Li Qingping's grandmother?"

"Yes, beautiful sister, come in with me!"

Keqing looked at Yaoyao's bright smile, hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to go in and take a look.

She had no other intentions. She just wanted to meet Yaoyao's master, not to meet Li Qingping's grandmother.

……

……

……

"Qingping, I heard that you've become quite famous in Liyue recently."

"Puff!" Li Qingping couldn't help but spit out the tea in his mouth. "Grandma Ping, who told you this? I'm just a high school student, how can I become famous?"

Oh no, now my image as a good student is ruined!

Li Qingping's mind raced, thinking about how to deal with the situation.

Most elderly people prefer stability. If Grandma Ping knew that I had entered the "East Factory", it would be terrible. I'm afraid she would nag me for a long time.

It's okay to just talk about it, but it would be a sin if you make the elderly worry all day long.

"You look so anxious, but I didn't say it was a bad thing." Grandma Ping smiled and wiped the water stains off Li Qingping's clothes. "Even though I'm old, I still have a few friends. How could you possibly hide this from me?"

"You're not old at all. I think you'll live to be at least a hundred years old," Li Qingping said. "I'm studying hard at school and am still in the top ten in my grade."

Grandma Ping's back was bent and her hair was full of white, but Li Qingping felt that her spirit was great, which was at least a sign of longevity.

"The Debo Hotel, Tea House on the Rock, The Winter Spy..."

Grandma Ping wanted to continue speaking, but Li Qingping begged for mercy again and again.

"Don't say any more. I'll confess. Confession will be rewarded with leniency."

"Why isn't Liyue on the staff at the Yanshang Teahouse? What's going on?" Grandma Ping narrowed her eyes and smiled kindly. "Did they suffer some loss?"

"How do you know this? I'm afraid there is nothing in Liyue that can be hidden from you." Li Qingping looked bitter and helpless.

"You're still feeling wronged. Tell me about it."

"Sister Lan gave me another contract. The employer was Ningguang. I was an outsourced employee helping out at the Yanshang Tea House," Li Qingping explained. "We were short on money at the time, and the contract was pretty good, so we signed it. The initial payment was 40 yuan, and then an annual salary of 200 million yuan. Other expenses were calculated separately."

"Why didn't you tell grandma that you needed money?" Grandma Ping frowned immediately.

"There's no way I can take your money. Besides, I just want to spend my own money. My parents' cards haven't been touched yet."

After hearing Li Qingping's explanation, Grandma Ping's brows relaxed slightly.

"Ye Lan is fair in his work, and the boss he found for you is also very good. If nothing unexpected happens, Ningguang will be the next Tianquan Star." Grandma Ping said lightly.

Li Qingping: ???

Why is there such explosive news again!

Li Qingping was experienced and quickly recovered: "Ningguang is so powerful?"

"Liyue is a rising star. She owns every profitable business you can think of, from communications and gaming to automobiles and mobile phone manufacturing."

"Doesn't that mean they're richer than Keqing's family?"

"The descendant of the Kaiyangxing family? That's still a little behind. Keqing's ancestors were all outstanding and accumulated a lot of wealth, but in a few years they probably won't be able to compare."

"She's so famous, how come I haven't heard of her?" Li Qingping asked curiously, "She's a senior. I have to learn from her."

"They're not stupid. They all push for a boss to be in the open, and they stay in the back to oversee the overall situation. It's safe."

Grandma Ping emphasized the word "safety". Li Qingping could not help but guess that she was pointing at him again, so he smiled awkwardly and said nothing.

Seeing Li Qingping like this, Grandma Ping felt both angry and amused. In the end, she could only shake her head helplessly: "I called you here this time for two reasons."

"You go ahead." Li Qingping sat up straight.

"This is for you." Grandma Ping pushed the box next to her over.

Li Qingping had noticed this box a long time ago. It was obviously an old thing, but it was wiped very clean. It was probably because Grandma Ping took it out often.

"What is this?" Li Qingping opened it carefully and found a jade token inside.

He took out the jade token, looked at it for a moment, and immediately had an idea. He then took out the key fragment of the Dust Demon Relics that he had on him. Both were also jade tokens.

Li Qingping put them together and they fit together perfectly, except for a piece missing from the top.

It turned out to be another key fragment!

"Grandma!" Li Qingping wanted to ask her why she had this thing in her hand.

"Go in and get all the things that belong to Guizhong. We old folks have been searching for so long, but we didn't expect that the last key would be with you." Grandma Ping gently waved her hand, signaling Li Qingping not to be surprised. "These are all old stories. It's not too late to talk about them when you come back."

Li Qingping opened his mouth but said nothing in the end.

After hearing what grandma said so far, he had already guessed most of what was going on.

After many twists and turns, I turned out to be the one with connections to Liyue!

"One last thing. I was thinking of bringing it up after you graduated, but now it seems the time is right." Grandma Ping's gloom cleared away, a smile growing on her face. "We've arranged a marriage for you. Here's the marriage certificate."

"Master! Come and see, this is Brother Qingping's friend, his beautiful girlfriend!"
