Chapter 154: Chat time without choosing a place
"Believe it or not, I am here to have a hearty duel with you right now."
"Oh, that's not impossible. Tomorrow, the headline of your Mond Daily will be 'Cavalry Captain skips duty and beats up innocent outsiders in '. Do you want to give it a try?"
"Oh? Are you sure such a report can be published under the nose of our Knights?"
Gu Sanqiu glanced at Kaiya and said, "Well, what you said goes against the meaning of freedom. It seems that I need to report this to your leader."
"Haha, the captain is leading the team on an expedition."
"Oh~, so some people think that Captain Qin is not the captain. I didn't expect that Mr. Kaia, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, actually has the ambition to rebel and get promoted?"
"Is this what you call ambition? By the way, is there something wrong with your wording?"
"It's not my own problem."
"Your mind is in turmoil, so you can't argue with me."
Kaia was stunned, then smiled helplessly.
"Are the abilities of you Liyue people to read faces and minds innate? Can you tell?"
"That's not the case. I remember a while ago when I had just finished something important, and then my friend dragged me to go shopping with her on the pretext of 'changing my mind and relaxing'."
Gu Sanqiu calmly stuffed the empty packaging bag into the trash can.
"Then, when she goes to buy new clothes, I have to judge whether they look good and whether they are suitable for her. In addition, my family's knowledge of clothes makes me have unique insights in this regard."
Kaiya's mouth twitched: "Then you are really amazing."
"Thank you very much."
"But what happened to you?"
"Oh, just this morning, my respectable brother, Master Diluc of the Dawn Winery, sent a long bill to my office."
Kaiya deadpanned, "That's about it."
Gu Sanqiu suddenly realized, and then patted the other person on the shoulder: "It's okay, it's just a bill. I believe Master Diluk will not mind you working in the tavern to pay off the debt."
"Are you trying to comfort me? You are clearly gloating over someone else's misfortune, you bastard. If you want to comfort me, then help me pay off part of the bill!"
"I'm sorry, my family conditions don't support me doing this."
Arriving at the gate of the Knights Templar, YaYa sat sideways on the "slide" beside the steps, chewing fisherman's toast while chatting with the Knight of Favonius who was guarding the gate.
…
Gu Sanqiu and Kaiya fell into silence. The latter patted Gu Sanqiu on the shoulder and said in a tone of trying not to laugh.
"Well, there is an old saying in Liyue, 'If you keep company with vermilion, you will become red; if you keep company with ink, you will become black.' Look at the executive officer now. Is that what I understand?"
"No, the same thing as being close to a red thing will make one red, and being close to a black thing will make one black. It's just that this guy has poor self-control. That's the only explanation."
Gu Sanqiu walked over expressionlessly , then patted Tartaglia on the shoulder.
"Hey, what are you doing here?"
"Hey, you're here?"
Yaya glanced at Gu Sanqiu: "Isn't it obvious? I'm chatting with the two knights. "
"I mean, why are you sitting like this?"
"Is there any other explanation besides comfort?"
Yaya looked at Gu Sanqiu with a look that asked, "What's wrong with you today?"
"You're not sick, are you?"
"What the hell, just go in now. There shouldn't be any other people besides the two of us."
"If you'd like, I don't mind if you chat for a while longer outside the Knights' Gate."
Kaia shrugged, "One of our knights hasn't come yet, so even if you go in now, you'll probably have to drink tea and wait inside."
"Considering your two personalities, I think the space outside is more suitable for you to perform."
"Who else are you waiting for?"
"Uh, that's Klee, the Spark Knight of our Knights of Favonius."
Kaiya smiled and said, "Because of her merits in the secret realm, our leader Qin allowed the little girl to go out for fish frying. I guess she slept in her secret base at night. She may be on her way back to Mondstadt now."
"As a member of the Knights Templar, these knights who have free time must be present at such important meetings with foreign nations."
Gu Sanqiu raised his voice: "So your Knights Order wants us two foreign heroes to wait, right? Is that how you make the rules?"
"Hey, if it were any other knight, we would have been in a meeting by now."
Kaiya spread his hands and said, "But as for Klee, it is still necessary to educate her children. We need to make her feel respected and valued, so as to cultivate her sense of responsibility. For example, she should not be late for the next meeting. I would like to trouble you two to be more tolerant of her."
"Well, that's a very suitable reason. I have nothing to say."
Gu Sanqiu waved his hand. He had to admit that although this approach was unreasonable, it was indeed something Mond would do.
Is there another reason? It is probably that the only two “easy to talk to” people who came to discuss the remuneration this time were him and Yaya.
If it were someone else, with Jean's wisdom and Kaeya's experience, they wouldn't choose this time to train Klee's sense of responsibility.
"But, I have a question."
Tartaglia looked puzzled. "Fish frying should be a normal game for children. Do you need permission to play this kind of entertainment? Isn't your early childhood education too strict?"
Subtext: We in winter are not as outrageous as you!
Gu Sanqiu didn't say anything, but he was already smiling from ear to ear in his heart.
Do you want Captain Qin to relax the restrictions?
The fish of Mond send their warmest greetings to Executive Officer Tartaglia!
"Well, there is a reason for this, and it's not because our childhood education in Mond is strict."
Kaiya was also a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that Yaya's attention would be focused on this kind of thing.
If it were any other matter, it would be fine to say it, but these words about Klee... if they were to be told to others, it would truly become a family disgrace that would be made public.
Is their preschool education in Monde strict?
It would be strange if it were strict!
It's just that some little guy is too creative. He can make frying a fish look like setting a mountain on fire. Otherwise, it would be just a child's play, and there's no way the Knights would pay attention to this.
“Ding ding ding ding, Klee is on the stage!”
(o°ω°o)
A little girl with a red hat fell from the sky, landed in the middle of the group of people, and even turned around twice before opening her arms and cheering.
"Hey, sorry to have kept you waiting."
"Keli, you've kept us waiting for so long. Be careful or Captain Qin will teach you a lesson."
Kaia tapped Klee's head gently.
"Ouch, don't hit my head, I was just spinning around, don't hit me..."
Klee turned around a few more times, but judging from her raised short legs and her staggering appearance, this time it was definitely not voluntary.
Finally, Keli staggered towards Gu Sanqiu.
Gu Sanqiu stretched out his hand and successfully caught a cute little Loli with a head. He couldn't just let the child lie directly on the steps.
However... this skill of spinning in circles is enough to teach some people the secret of scamming people.
