Chapter 248 Invitation letter, showing off the power
"go?"
In the attic in the sky...well, there is no attic in the sky at this moment. Therefore, now it is actually in a luxurious building used by Ningguang Bao to replace Qunyu Pavilion as an office location.
The interior layout of this luxurious building is based on Qunyu Pavilion. It can be seen that even though Lord Tianquan never mentioned it, he has never let go of Qunyu Pavilion in his heart.
And the elegant table where Ning Guang used to work was now covered with pieces of "white snow". Recently, the island country "Inaba", which has been locked down for a long time, has lifted its lockdown order. Such major events are naturally of greatest concern to senior leaders of various countries.
After all, the lifting of the national lockdown order will only provide more places for people to travel, but it is much more than that at the national level.
Trade, diplomacy, cultural exchanges, contract regulations...these are all issues that all countries in Teyvat need to worry about, especially Liyue, which is the capital of trade. Compared with other countries, Liyue, as the trade center of Teyvat and the "contracted country", must pay more attention to this aspect.
But those are not things that can be rushed in a moment. Ningguang is more concerned about other information now - General Thunder and Lightning has been defeated.
There is no specific information as to whose hands they were defeated, only that it was "two foreigners."
One of these two "foreigners" must be the blond foreign traveler. This was also confirmed by Beidou, and she was not clueless about the other person.
Combined with "a fierce battle between the giant machine and the Thunderbolt General above the castle tower", as well as some of the intelligence initially shared with Mondstadt. It can basically be concluded that it is the last executive officer code-named [Mortal].
This was nothing. It was not unusual for the executive officers to be powerful. Although it was shocking that some of them could rival the gods, she was not surprised. And the other party's status as the "last person" seems a bit ridiculous now.
None of the above issues are critical. The key issue is that this executive who "can rival or even defeat the gods" is now in Liyue. And he even sent himself an invitation to a banquet.
This is also what Yelan asked when she said "Are you going?"
Although it was a question, Ye Lan actually already had the answer in her heart. It is impossible for this one of the real powerful people in Liyue and his long-term partner to choose to back down. Sure enough, Ningguang did not let her down... Ningguang never let her down, which is why they were able to maintain such a long-term cooperative relationship.
"Of course I want to go. I have no reason to refuse. Winning and losing on the chessboard is a normal thing. How can there be any reason to get timid after losing once or twice?"
This time was different from last time, last time Ningguang knew nothing about the other party's information. But this time, the available information is richer. Although she had read it many times, she was already familiar with everything about the other party in the information. But she didn't mind reading it a few more times, maybe she could find some hidden problems?
While carefully reading the information about the other party in his hand, Ning Guang responded to Ye Lan's questions casually. She knew that Ye Lan was just asking casually, and that the other party probably wanted to say more than this. Therefore, she did not follow the topic, but waited for Ye Lan to lead the topic to what the other party was interested in.
But for some reason, Ye Lan had no intention of continuing. She came here simply because "the arrival of the executive officer" was a big event, and it was customary for the two of them to meet and discuss such important events.
The basic policy had been set long ago, otherwise the previous "should we go" would not have been regarded as nonsense by the two of them.
Ning Guang finally raised his head and looked at Ye Lan with some doubts in his eyes. It is rare for the other party to show such a hesitant attitude. As a partner, she should show appropriate concern, and as far as their personal relationship is concerned, she cannot turn a blind eye to this matter.
But also because of their good personal relationship, Ning Guang, a friend, also believed in Ye Lan. If the other party feels it is necessary, he will definitely say so directly. And since she was hesitant to speak, it must be because the other party didn't think it was necessary for her to participate in this matter.
In this case, whether as a collaborator or a friend, she just needs to wait quietly. but……
"I believe you can solve your troubles by yourself, but if you need to use condensed light, don't be polite."
...It is also necessary to take a stand.
"...I'm not being polite, it's just that the time hasn't come yet. You have another guest coming, so I'll go down and prepare."
Ye Lan was indeed as she said. The reason why she hesitated to speak was not because she didn't want to trouble Ning Guang, but because now was really not the time to discuss that matter. She hasn't made up her mind yet. The matter that she has been pursuing for so many years has finally made some progress, but the current situation in Liyue does not allow for too many mistakes.
Watching Ye Lan leave the room from the window, Ningguang sighed silently... Why didn't the other party leave the door? Even though it was inconvenient for others to see their relationship, there was no backdoor.
After holding her forehead slightly and adjusting her expression, Ningguang put away her work and waited quietly in the room.
After a while, there were frequent footsteps outside the door, and then before the door was opened, a burst of hearty and heroic voice reached Ning Guang's ears. The door was pushed open by someone, which was the last thing that happened.
"Ningguang, you have to promise me something!"
"I knew you wouldn't be able to sit still. Don't worry, you have been invited."
Looking at the three invitations in his hand, Ning Guang sighed slightly. They are for myself, Beidou, and Yelan respectively. Of course, the reason why they all appear in her hands now cannot be because they were intercepted by herself - from the beginning, the other party gave her three invitations together.
"Oh?...I see, it seems that this person is indeed as powerful as you said. I am more interested in meeting him!"
Captain Beidou is indeed heroic, but a person who can maintain the operation of such a large fleet and continue to grow it cannot rely solely on "heroism". Just by relying on Ning Guang's words, she understood what the other party meant, and her curiosity about this executive whom she had never met became even stronger.
Yelan had been exposed in the last confrontation, and Ningguang knew it. And it's not a big secret that Beidou has a close relationship with him...but that's not the key. The key is time.
The time in these three invitation letters is relatively tight. If you are simply preparing to attend the banquet, this time can be considered sufficient. But if she was asked to transfer things to the other two people, the time would be too hasty.
Coincidentally, Yelan happened to be right here with her, and Beidou was also on the way... Hehe, this was no invitation, it was clearly a threat given to her by the other party.
