Diona jumped down eagerly, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she felt the ground beneath her feet.
"Then I'll go back first."
"Go."
Not long after Diona left, Xia Zhen arrived.
"Already done?"
"Hmm, do you want to come up and have some fun?"
"What's so fun about it?"
"Tsk, speaking of which, haven't you seen your sister yet?"
"Yes, I don't know why, but Ying always stays at home and doesn't go out. Does Inatsume have so much official business to handle every day?"
"Who knows? But I just saw my sister."
"..."
--
Yuehai Pavilion.
Lord Lishui Dieshan put down the newspaper in his hand, looked at the simple meal in front of him, and was deep in thought.
"Ah Ping, is this what we're having for lunch today?"
"Yes."
Grandma Ping glanced at him and said indifferently.
"If you think I'm not doing it well, go to the kitchen and do it yourself."
"I don't think it's bad, I'm just asking."
True Lord Xiaoyue also sighed.
"It really has nothing to do with A-Ping. Ever since I ate 'God Jumps Over the Wall' at Mr. Xia's restaurant last time, I haven't had any appetite for anything these past few days. I walked around the streets, and none of the street stalls looked appetizing to me..."
True Lord Lishui frowned and looked at him.
"Wait a minute, when did you go out for a stroll in the streets again?"
"last night."
"Why didn't you call me?"
"It's late at night, and I think you're asleep."
"..."
"Is there any news in today's newspaper?"
"Yes, they're from the construction site."
"Oh?"
"They say Mr. Xia is in charge of cooking at the construction site and provides unlimited rainbow juice, so the workers are working very hard..."
"Wait a minute, you're saying Mr. Xia will personally take charge of the cooking?"
"Ah."
The two True Lords exchanged a glance.
Li Shui Zhenjun pondered for a moment: "Emperor is also involved in this school's project, which is of great significance to Liyue."
Lord Xiaoyue nodded: "Indeed, this matter concerns educational reform and will have a great impact on the future rise and fall of Liyue."
"In that case, we immortals should naturally do our part as well."
"That makes sense!"
"Then let's go over there."
"good."
The two True Lords stood up.
Grandma Ping glanced at it.
"Where are you going?"
The two True Lords coughed, their faces righteous and awe-inspiring: "Naturally, we'll go to the construction site to help the Emperor and Mr. Xia. We're capable of doing our part."
"Finish your meal first."
"Not very hungry."
"We're leaving now, Ping. We won't be back tonight."
Before she finished speaking, only Grandma Ping was left in the room.
She looked at the other two bowls of rice that hadn't been touched yet and shook her head.
She then glanced at her bowl of rice, which she had only eaten two bites of, and fell silent.
A moment later, she cleared the food off the table and muttered to herself.
"I haven't seen Yao Yao for a few days, and I'm a little worried. I should go and check on her."
In the evening, the two men, who had spent the afternoon moving bricks at the construction site, wiped the sweat from their faces and walked into the canteen chatting and laughing, where they saw Grandma Ping sitting at the table.
"A Ping?"
"No, what are you doing here too?"
The two True Lords were completely bewildered.
"I came to see Yao Yao and also to urge her to cultivate."
"..."
"Yaoyao didn't practice shooting today. She's too playful at her age. I really need to keep an eye on her."
"..."
"What are you standing there for? Come and eat!"
"Oh……"
The two True Lords silently walked over and sat down.
Okay, you have apprentices, feel free to freeload.

A few more days passed, and it was January 12th.
Yelan is back.
As soon as she returned, she went to Yujingtai to report the news to Ningguang.
"I've made a preliminary resolution to the matter of the Layered Rock Abyss. I'll submit the detailed mission report later."
"You've worked hard. Don't rush the report, take a good rest first."
"Yes, I want to get a good massage from Mr. Xia right now."
"There it is."
Not long after Diona left, Xia Zhen arrived.
"Already done?"
"Hmm, do you want to come up and have some fun?"
"What's so fun about it?"
"Tsk, speaking of which, haven't you seen your sister yet?"
