"I heard she was acting on her own. I wonder if she has so kind of grudge against the Anemo Archon of Mondstadt."
Quietly observing Childe's awkward expression, Kaito made the comnt in a gossipy tone.
Then, as if rembering sothing, he turned to Zhongli and continued, "I wonder what Mr. Zhongli's thoughts on this are?"
"I have only heard a little about that matter. As for the specifics, I cannot offer much of an opinion," Zhongli said, slowly shaking his head.
"Well… I'm not too familiar with it. After all, I've been here in Liyue the whole ti."
With an awkward laugh, Childe scratched the back of his head, indicating he knew nothing.
Although he knew the truth of the matter, he certainly couldn't say it in front of Mr. Zhongli and Kaito.
"Looks like you're still chatting here, Kaito. Should we go ahead and order then?"
Just then, Wendy walked over.
The Anemo Archon…
This feeling…
The contrast is really huge…
His gaze fell upon the approaching Anemo Archon, and Childe couldn't help but recall the ti he had faced Her.
Back then, even when he gave it his all, he was still defeated in an instant. There was absolutely no way to make the Anemo Archon take him seriously for even a second.
But now, the Anemo Archon standing here looked completely like a well-behaved, sweet girlfriend, making it hard for him to imagine that this was the sa Anemo Archon who had once filled him with despair.
It could be said that the Anemo Archon of today was completely different from the one he had faced before.
Of course, he knew the reason why.
Kaito…
This young man…
is definitely not simple…
Shifting his gaze to Kaito, Childe couldn't help but think this.
Right…
I almost forgot…
"You all can order whatever you like. Just put it on my tab."
Turning his gaze back to the Anemo Archon, Childe said with a broad smile.
"Order whatever? Really?"
Seemingly surprised that Childe would say such a thing, Wendy asked in return.
"Yes, really. Order whatever you want." Sensing the instantaneous shift in the Anemo Archon's aura, Childe couldn't help but feel a little unnerved, but after a mont, he still nodded firmly.
After all, with the amount of Mora he possessed, it would be more than enough to buy the entire restaurant, let alone worry about the cost of ordering food.
"That's not nec—"
"Are you worried I can't pay the bill? Don't be. It doesn't matter what you order."
Knowing that Kaito was about to refuse, Childe quickly interrupted him.
Then he looked at Zhongli and continued, "Right? Mr. Zhongli, this amount of money is nothing to ."
"That is indeed the case. Childe has always been generous and can afford any expensive item," Zhongli nodded.
This Childe…
Is he addicted to being everyone's wallet or sothing…
Hearing what seed to be a hint of pride in Childe's words, Kaito was at a loss for a coback.
But since the man had already put it that way, he naturally couldn't be polite any longer.
"Alright Wendy, you all go ahead and order sothing to eat over there. I'll be over in a minute."
"Okay, but hurry up."
After speaking, Wendy turned and left, returning to their private room.
"Kaito isn't back yet?"
As soon as she returned to the room, Kiana, who was sitting at the table, asked.
"Yeah, he's still chatting with his friend. And that friend of his told us to order whatever we want, he'll be paying the bill."
As she spoke, Wendy sat back down in her seat.
"Wow! We can really order anything?"
The mont she heard they could order whatever they wanted, Paimon imdiately perked up.
She had been feeling down because Kaito hadn't returned yet and they couldn't order, but Wendy brought back such good news that her spirits were instantly lifted a hundredfold.
"Yeah, order whatever you want," Wendy nodded.
"Then I'm going to order one of everything."
After getting confirmation from Wendy, Paimon decided to order one of everything in the restaurant.
She couldn't let such a rare opportunity go to waste.
And she had to admit, her and Lumine's decision to co to Liyue with Kaito was absolutely the right one.
If it were just her and Lumine in Liyue, they definitely wouldn't have had an opportunity like this. They might have even had to pinch pennies.
"Can you even finish one of everything? Paimon, just order what you want to eat. Don't act like you've never eaten before."
Watching Paimon's behavior, Lumine, who was beside her, felt completely helpless.
More importantly, she felt that Paimon was being a bit embarrassing.
Even though Kaito's friend told them to order whatever they wanted, Paimon's actions would only make people think she was a glutton with no worldliness.
"Since Kaito's friend said to order whatever we want, then let's order whatever we want. He's paying anyway, what's there to be afraid of?"
Listening to the conversation between Lumine and Paimon, Wendy interjected.
She knew what Lumine was worried about, so she spoke up as Wendy to put her at ease.
"Yeah, yeah, what Wendy… what Sister said is right."
Not expecting the Anemo Archon to back her up, Paimon was clearly overjoyed.
After all, this ant she could order one of every single thing to eat in the restaurant.
"Um… is it really… okay?"
Also surprised that Wendy would say that, Lumine was a bit taken aback.
And for so reason, after Wendy said that, she no longer felt that Paimon's actions were embarrassing.
Sigh…
I think…
I was afraid of being looked down on by Wendy and Kiana…
After thinking for a mont, Lumine realized that the reason she didn't want Paimon to act that way was actually because she didn't want others to look down on her, not Paimon.
In short, it was all for her own sake.
"What are you thinking about? Order."
Just then, Wendy suddenly handed a nu to her and Paimon beside her.
"What about ?" Seeing that she was the only one without a nu, Kiana looked at Wendy with obvious displeasure, but she quickly added, "Never mind. Since you're ordering one of everything anyway, I'll just eat then."
"All you think about is eating."
Looking at the nu in her hand, Wendy suddenly muttered.
"You'd better not eat any of it later, then," Kiana shot a dissatisfied glance at Wendy, who was reading the nu.
Of course I have the ability to not eat, but just because you say not to, I won't?
Her eyes still on the nu, Wendy replied coolly.
These two…
It seems like they're bickering, but then again, maybe not…
Suddenly, Lumine felt a little envious of Wendy and Kiana's relationship.
That makes sense…
After all, they're both Kaito's…
girlfriends…
After so thought, Lumine ca to this conclusion.
As for her, she was just an outsider.
