Travel through Teyvat and spend your life with Linghua

Chapter 213 New Employees

After returning to Liyue Harbor, Keqing headed straight to the General Affairs Department to meet with the other Seven Stars. She detailed what had happened in the cave and her concerns about the Fatui's presence within the Thousand Flames. Upon hearing this, the other Seven Stars realized the gravity of the situation and pledged their full cooperation in the investigation.

As for Xinyang and Linghua, since they were not members of Liyue and were not able to participate in the investigation of Liyue's internal affairs, they said goodbye to Keqing and followed Ganyu to the place where the hostages were previously placed.

As soon as they saw Xinyang and Linghua coming, they all stood up.

"Benefactor, what's going on? Has Chayevich been caught?"

Xinyang and Linghua exchanged a glance. "We tried our best. We initially captured Chayevich, but he blew up the cave while we weren't paying attention, intending to kill us along with him. We escaped, but he must have been blown to pieces."

When everyone heard that Chayevich was dead, they had complicated expressions on their faces, a mixture of anger at his evil deeds and a hint of relief that the storm might finally be calming down.

An older man heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Although he wasn't brought to justice, he was blown to ashes. He deserved it. Thank you for your hard work, benefactor." After saying that, he bowed deeply to Xinyang and Linghua.

Seeing this, the others also bowed to Xinyang and Linghua.

Xinyang and Linghua quickly helped everyone up one by one. "There's no need to do this. This is what we should do. The most important thing is that everyone is safe."

Ganyu stepped forward and said gently, "Everyone, Chayevich is dead, and this matter has come to an end. I heard that you all come from different countries. I ask that you cooperate with the investigation so that we can better understand the full picture of the incident. Afterwards, we will dispatch the Thousand Rock Army to escort you home safely."

After hearing Ganyu's words, everyone nodded in agreement. A young man from Mondstadt said, "As long as we can go home, we'll do anything. Life in the mines is truly horrible."

Xin Yang looked at everyone and continued, "Don't worry, we will ensure everyone returns home safely. During the investigation, if you remember any details about the Fatui, no matter how small, please let us know."

Everyone began to discuss one after another, recalling what happened in the cave.

At this time, Shuili slowly walked to Xinyang's side, tugged at the corner of Xinyang's clothes and cried a little, "Brother Xinyang, I don't have a home anymore. My parents are gone. I... I don't want to go back. I'm afraid..."

Xinyang patted Shuili's shoulder distressedly and said, "Don't be afraid. If you don't want to leave, then follow me. I am your family."

Linghua watched from the side and said softly, "Shuili, we won't ignore you, don't worry."

Ganyu frowned slightly, and after a moment's thought, she said, "Shuili's situation is indeed special, but this still needs to be discussed. After all, it involves some of Liyue's relevant regulations and arrangements. But before that, Shuili can continue to stay with everyone."

After hearing what they said, Shuili raised her head with a glimmer of hope in her eyes: "Really? You will really let me stay?"

Ganyu nodded. "Of course, we will do our best to coordinate arrangements so that you can stay in Liyue. It may take some time, but don't worry, until the results are known, we will take good care of you and will not let you come to any harm."

Shuili forced a smile towards them and said, "Thank you, thank you. I feel much more at ease being with you."

"Then I'll trouble you, Senior Sister. Xiaoli, quickly tell us everything you know. We'll take you away after we finish our investigation."

After Xinyang finished speaking, Shuili nodded obediently, and then followed the relevant personnel to conduct the investigation.

After finishing the investigation, Shuili returned to Xinyang with a relaxed look on her face.

"Brother Xinyang, I have finished telling them everything." Shuili said with her head raised.

Xinyang touched Shuili's head and said, "Okay, Senior Sister, we'll take Xiaoli away first."

Gan Yu nodded and said, "Well, be careful on the road."

Xinyang responded and left with Shuili and Linghua.

"Xiao Li, my brother has a milk tea shop in Liyue. If you are willing, you can go to the store to help out and learn a lot of interesting things." Xinyang said to Shui Li with a smile, his eyes full of tenderness.

When Shuili heard this, her eyes suddenly sparkled, and she asked expectantly, "Is it really possible, Brother Xinyang? I really want to try it, but I don't know how to do it."

Xinyang patted Shuili's shoulder gently, smiled and continued to comfort her, "It's okay. It's normal not to know how to make it at the beginning. The guys in the store will teach you slowly. If there's anything you don't understand, you can just ask me or your sister Linghua. Besides, helping out in the store is fun. You get to meet a lot of different customers and learn how to make all kinds of milk tea. Once you learn it, you can make it yourself."

Linghua also responded with a smile: "That's right, Xiaoli, you are so smart, you will definitely learn it quickly."

Shui Li's face flushed with excitement after hearing this. She nodded vigorously and said, "Yes! I will definitely study hard and try to learn it as soon as possible."

As she was talking, an idea suddenly flashed through Shuili's mind. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she asked a little embarrassedly: "Brother Xinyang, is Sister Linghua your girlfriend?"

Xinyang smiled and shook his head, saying, "No."

When Shuili heard this, she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

But then Xin Yang smiled and said, "Sister Linghua, she is my wife. Speaking of which, Xiaoli, you should call Linghua sister-in-law."

Shui Li was stunned at first when she heard Xin Yang's words, and then a shy and somewhat lost look appeared on her face. However, she quickly adjusted herself and said politely, "Oh, it's my sister-in-law. Hello, Sister-in-law Linghua."

Linghua was amused by Shuili's cute reaction and gently touched Shuili's head: "Xiaoli is so good. If you don't understand anything in the store in the future, your sister-in-law will teach you well."

As they were talking, the three of them had already arrived at the door of Bai Lu Shuang Hua.

Xin Yang looked at the familiar "Bailu Shuanghua" in front of him and said with a smile, "We're here. This is our milk tea shop. Xiao Li, come in and take a look.

As soon as I opened the door, Xianyun came up to me. "Where did you two go to have fun this morning? Hey, who is this little girl?"

Xin Yang introduced with a smile, "This is Shui Li, from Mondstadt. She will come to the store to help out in the future. Master, please take good care of her."

As soon as these words were spoken, all the employees in the store crowded over and asked Shui Li questions.

Shuili was a little embarrassed by this scene, her face slightly flushed. She hid behind Xinyang, only poking her head out, and said timidly: "Hello everyone, I'm sorry to bother you all, I will work hard to learn how to do things."

Xianyun smiled and waved his hands: "Hey, stop crowding around, don't scare Xiaoli. Xiaoli is new here, you guys have to help her out a bit and teach her well."

Nana Kane took Shuili's hand and said, "Little Li, don't be afraid. They like you. Come on, I'll take you to get familiar with the environment."

All the employees in the store gathered around Shuili.

Linghua took Xinyang's hand and walked outside, tilting her head slightly and saying, "I feel like Xiaoli's eyes looking at you are a little unusual. It's not just admiration, it seems to be mixed with some other emotions, like love."

Xin Yang retracted her smile. "Maybe you're overthinking it? I just accidentally saved her once ten years ago. It's incredible that she still remembers me after ten years."

Linghua shook her head. "Trust my intuition. Girls are often very accurate in this regard. Think about it, she was so young at the time, and you saved her. You might be a hero in her heart. She has remembered you for all these years. Now that she's an adult and sees you again, those feelings might have changed a lot."

Xinyang scratched his head. "Even if it's really like what you said, there will always be only you in my heart. I will only treat Xiaoli as my younger sister."
