Genshin Impact: I am a high-ranking official from various countries

Chapter 252: Past Events (Encounter with God)

"That's enough for you. A god chatting so happily with his relatives from another country is an explosive scene." Knocking on the table impatiently, Chen Yue felt a headache looking at these two funny guys.

"I've already paid, so you don't have to worry about me running away with the bill again. Can I leave now?"

Wendy and Kitsaigong were slightly startled by Chen Yue's words, and then they came to their senses and realized that the atmosphere at this time and place was indeed a little subtle. After all, one was the God of Freedom of Mondstadt, and the other was the chief priest of Inazuma Shrine. It was really inappropriate for their followers to be so intimate with other gods in front of their own gods.

Wendy cleared her throat, trying to look more dignified, and said, "Well... Miss Kitsusai-gu, the chief priest of the famous shrine in Inazuma, since it's getting late, why don't we talk tomorrow?"

Hu Zhaigong nodded in agreement: "Okay, see you tomorrow then."

The four of them left the hotel together. Night had fallen, the stars twinkled like diamonds, and the moonlight was as bright as water. Walking on the streets of Liyue Harbor, immersed in the warm and cheerful atmosphere of the Lantern Festival, Chen Yue couldn't help but take a deep breath.

That’s how it feels! This long-lost sense of belonging surges into my heart.

"Wendy, you have been here several times. I guess you don't need me to act as a guide anymore, right?" Chen Yue asked with a smile.

"Of course we need... some Mora as activity funds!" Wendy quickly stopped what she was about to say, stretched out her hand to Chen Yue, and smiled knowingly.

"I've been here so many times, I'm already familiar with this place, I don't need you to lead me all the time. Besides, the Inazuma Goddess is in poor health now, so she needs you, a local, to take care of her!"

"Yes, just take care of my Lord God. You promised me this before, so you can't go back on your word! I have something to discuss with the Wind God from Mondstadt, so I won't bother you. But I have to leave you some funds for your activities."

Hu Zhaigong nodded repeatedly and extended his hand to Chen Yue with a smile.

"Hmph, this won't happen again." Although Chen Yue said this, he honestly took out some Mora from his arms and handed it to Hu Zhaigong, not forgetting to give the two of them a grateful look.

"Spend sparingly, and at least don't come to see me again tonight. We can talk tomorrow if you have anything to say."

"Oh~~Okay, okay, I promise no one will disturb you tonight!"

As Hu Zhaigong and Wendy walked away, Chen Yue felt an indescribable excitement. He looked down at Zhen, who was supported by him, and saw that her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were blurred. She was obviously still immersed in the drunken state. Chen Yue couldn't help but feel pity for her. He reached out and gently poked Zhen's forehead, and then playfully pinched her soft cheek.

"Well, it's very moist!" Chen Yue murmured softly, with a barely perceptible smile on the corner of his mouth.

At this moment, Zhen was like a blooming flower, exuding charming charm. Her face was lightly flushed, as gorgeous as the sunset in the sky; her blurred eyes revealed a kind of innocence and purity, which made people want to take good care of her. Chen Yue quietly appreciated this touching scene in front of him, his heart full of joy.

After a while, Chen Yue called softly, "Zhen, how do you feel? Can you still walk?" His voice was gentle and firm, as if it contained some magical power that could penetrate Zhen's hazy drunkenness and wake her up from the chaos. Zhen frowned slightly, tried to open her eyes, and looked at Chen Yue in confusion. Seeing this, Chen Yue waited patiently, looking at her with encouraging eyes, hoping that she could regain consciousness as soon as possible.

Zhen rubbed her eyes slowly, then slowly raised her head and looked at Chen Yue, with a trace of confusion in her eyes. However, as time went on, her eyes gradually became clearer and began to focus on the surrounding environment.

She looked around carefully and was surprised to find herself on the bustling streets of Liyue Harbor. The lights were bright, the voices were bustling, and everything seemed so real, as if she were in a dreamlike world.

"Where... where are we?" Zhen's voice trembled slightly, as if he had not yet fully sobered up from his drunken state.

Chen Yue smiled gently and replied softly: "We are on the streets of Liyue Harbor. Just now you drank too much and accidentally fell into my arms."

After hearing Chen Yue's explanation, Zhen recalled what happened before. She couldn't help but feel shy and said softly: "Thank you, Yue. I...I seem to have lost my composure a little."

Chen Yue responded with a tolerant and understanding tone: "Don't say that. Everyone can lose control sometimes. You've seen me get frustrated many times. The key is that we spent such a wonderful night together." His smile was like a spring breeze, bringing endless warmth and comfort to people.

Zhen nodded slightly in agreement. She looked around, feeling the prosperity and bustle of Liyue Harbor. Here, the streets were lined with shops, bright lights, and a constant stream of pedestrians. In the distance, melodious singing and laughter rose and fell, as if telling the joy and harmony of this city.

Zhen took a deep breath, feeling the unique atmosphere of Liyue Harbor. She seemed to be able to smell the faint fragrance of flowers and food in the air, which intertwined together to form the unique flavor of Liyue Harbor. An inexplicable feeling surged in her heart, as if she had some kind of wonderful connection with this city.

Chen Yue was very pleased to see Zhen gradually blending into the atmosphere of the city. Zhen had already begun to enjoy this wonderful night. He gently held Zhen's hand and led her forward.

They strolled along the street, enjoying the scenery along the way. From time to time, pedestrians gave them friendly smiles and glances, and Zhen gradually relaxed and began to enjoy this time alone with Chen Yue.

They talked about all kinds of topics, from daily life to life philosophy, and every exchange made them understand each other better.

As I was walking, I was suddenly attracted by a gadget displayed on a roadside stall. It was a small, exquisite mechanical device that looked like some kind of complicated mechanism, but it could move freely, as if it had its own life.

"Hmm? That little moving gadget is a bit strange. It seems like what you said is something called mechanical engineering." Zhen said curiously, pointing at the little gadget.
