Chapter 887: A Certain Brother Who Was Completely Seen Through
"Sister, calm down. This is just a normal trade between two countries. Why are you bringing up dowry and gifts? I'm here to do business. This is official business."
"Is it really official business?"
Ningguang looked at Gu Sanqiu carefully: "Don't you know about this kind of thing?"
"What else?"
Gu Sanqiu muttered to himself. He had originally planned to celebrate his father's birthday today and find a suitable excuse for everyone to slack off together.
No, it seems like it takes a week to collect the goods over there?
Great, there’s a reason!
Ningguang looked at her silly brother whose eyes were rolling around, and couldn't help but pinch his face with both hands again.
"Even if you don't want to, what if someone has this idea? You make it sound like ."
Gu Sanqiu said helplessly: "That's really not the case. His first goal has become to build Inazuma into an eternal paradise in Teyvat. How could he still focus on such a small path?"
"If I have to say what the similarities are between her and me, it's probably that our goals are actually very similar. Can we be considered fellow Taoists?"
Gu Sanqiu explained seriously: "Think about it, sister, if she really had feelings for me, I wouldn't have been able to come back after the last matter was resolved. That's right, isn't it?"
"Huh, you're the only one who can say that."
Ningguang sighed: "The child has grown up and really doesn't like his sister to control him anymore."
“This is really not a question of whether or not to care…”
Gu Sanqiu patted his chest and said, "Anyway, sister, don't worry, it's all over. It's impossible for me to live in Inazuma permanently. If I go this time, I have other things to do. Believe me."
Ningguang's eyes narrowed. "Now that you've said that, I even hope you can talk honestly about marriage."
“Why?!”
Ningguang said helplessly: "Think about it carefully. Every time you said you were busy, it was always a very dangerous incident. Compared to this, I really hope that you will be captured and become the leader of a group of people."
You are worthy of it, sister.
It was easy to tell what I wanted to do.
Now he didn't dare to make any promises casually. Putting up the flag before going out would cause big problems.
"By the way, I heard from the girl before that today seems to be the birthday of the guest official Zhongli. How about we go and attend it then?"
Ningguang thought for a moment. "The learned guest official Zhongli from the Wangsheng Hall? I have heard of his name for a long time. He has given guidance to the young people from the General Affairs Department and Yuehai Pavilion many times. Since it is his birthday party, I should definitely attend it."
Gu Sanqiu was stunned: "Isn't the word birthday a bit heavy? Shouldn't it be birthday party?"
"oh?"
Ningguang smiled: "I thought that with your relationship with Wangsheng Hall, Mr. Zhongli's birthday should be called a birthday."
"After all, my brother doesn't think of asking his sister for advice when he has something to do. Instead, he goes to see Mr. Zhongli privately more often. I almost thought that the gentleman had some special identity."
“…”
oops?

Gu Sanqiu broke out in a cold sweat, it seemed that he had indeed overlooked this point.
As a pilgrim who often wanders around the streets, it stands to reason that no one would notice him chatting with anyone.
But he forgot one thing. He was not the kind of person who had boundless magical powers thanks to the sacrifices of his relatives and friends. He also had a smart sister.
There was nothing wrong with my sister knowing what kind of people Gu Sanqiu would deal with.
I want to know what kind of friends my younger brother makes, and I worry whether he will be led astray by his new friends.
Although from other people's perspective, Gu Sanqiu is the one who will lead others astray, but in the eyes of his family, this is not the case at all.
There is nothing wrong with my younger brother. If he has any problems, he must have learned bad things from other people!
Apart from the group of people who have been playing with Zhongli since childhood, perhaps in Ningguang's eyes, Zhongli is indeed a new character who quickly became familiar with her younger brother.
Then the question is, the incense burner is not someone who often has to deal with worldly affairs, so why does he often have to get together with an "ordinary guest" in the Hall of Rebirth?
With Gu Sanqiu's strength and the current size of the Ten Gold Association, even if there are things that cannot be solved, wouldn't he come to his sister, who is from the Tianquan Star?
Nowadays, it is an era where "everyone knows that Tianquan is supreme". After all, Gu Sanqiu is also the younger brother of Tianquanxing. He is one of the few big guys in Liyue Harbor who can make the incense worshipper, or the crazy immortal, calm down. There is nothing wrong with this sentence.
This loophole is indeed quite big.
Ningguang smiled: "Then, what excuse will you use to change the subject?"
Gu Sanqiu laughed awkwardly: "Ahahaha, the weather is nice today."
"Forget it, you little brat never makes me worry."
Ningguang paused and said, "As for that person's matter, I can't say much, and I won't disturb his normal life. You can rest assured about this."
"In the past, the Rock King Emperor only came to Liyue to guide the people's livelihood during the immortal ceremony. We, the Seven Stars of Liyue, took charge of Liyue's mundane affairs, and the rest was handled by our own cultivation lineage and immortals."
" This is an era of human rule. Even if I knew about these things, I would not take any action, not even the slightest attempt."
"That move must have a deep meaning. We just need to work diligently to manage Liyue. Although Liyue's strength in major events is not as strong as it used to be, it is time to take over the umbrella handle."
"Let us hold up a big umbrella for him to protect him from the wind and rain."
"Let him enjoy the peace and happiness of human rule."
Gu Sanqiu smiled and cupped his hands: "Sister, you are very righteous, you are worthy of being a heroine in the position of Tianquan. I admire you."
"Stop talking nonsense."
Ningguang rolled her eyes at Gu Sanqiu and said, "Okay, come with me. Since it's that person's birthday party, there should be a lot of people coming. I need to think about what gifts would be appropriate."
Gu Sanqiu accompanied Ningguang into the treasure house of the Qun Yu Pavilion.
"Sister, in my opinion, you should just collect some rare treasures from the Seven Kingdoms, such as calligraphy and paintings, and give them to him. He will not be interested in other things."
Ningguang nodded in agreement: "Yes, that's true. I think something related to the humanities might be more suitable for him."
"After all, he is the only one who has accounts in many antique shops and teahouses."
Gu Sanqiu's mouth twitched: "The account of Wangsheng Hall?"
Ningguang shook her head. "I asked someone to check it out. It seems that it was indeed Wangsheng Hall's account before, but it has become the North Country Bank's account since then. Just looking at the account, I feel that the young master has been conquered by that person."
Ningguang was curious: "Since your relationship is like this, why don't you put your account on hold? In terms of financial strength, Northland Bank should be no match for you, right?"
Gu Sanqiu remained silent, then gave Ningguang an awkward but polite smile.
Ningguang was shocked: "No way..."
"That's right, sister, you are so smart."
Gu Sanqiu said expressionlessly: "Since we are already in this relationship, why do you think he won't just take it?"
