Chapter 629 Family Dinner
Xiao Hei smacked his lips and said, "What an old-fashioned way to sow discord. I wonder if he thinks I really believe it."
Gu Sanqiu glanced at him and said, "Why didn't you stop him from escaping through the space crack just now?"
"Hehe, that thing is not that simple. Under the premise that the rift has been opened, if you want to stop him from leaving, you need to fight against a very powerful force. This is not something that can be accomplished by human power."
Xiao Hei spread his hands: "Anyway, it's not something I can do."
"When did you and Dad meet?"
"Hey, anyway, it's earlier than you."
Xiao Hei also ran away. Gu Sanqiu couldn't help but slap his forehead at his bachelor behavior. These people who have lived too long always like to tell half the truth and hide the other half.
"Sanqiu, he just said that I am not simple. Could it be that the people in the abyss know my identity?"
Sora looked confused, "But even I don't know if I have something different hidden in me. Could it be my power?"
"You can drive elemental forces without the Eye of God. From this point of view, you are indeed a freak. If you include your sister, you are the only two freaks in Teyvat."
Gu Sanqiu picked up Kong and said, "As for what he said before he left, it's none of my business. Seeing is believing, little brother. You have shed blood and worked hard for Liyue Harbor. I can't do such a thing as throwing you away after you've done your job."
The golden retriever, who was called a donkey by Gu Sanqiu, smiled warmly, and his ability to strengthen the heart and increase intimacy was inexplicably revealed again, and the frightened Gu Sanqiu almost threw him out.
"Your ability is quite interesting. It would be even better if you could control it freely. Then, you can just use your beauty trick on anyone you meet."
Paimon held onto Kong's clothes tightly, and the group rode on the power of the fierce wind to leave Minlin.
After throwing Kong to Bubulu and handing him over to Bai Zhu, Gu Sanqiu walked towards the teahouse, and as expected, he found his father listening to a story there.
"The problem has been solved. I didn't know there was such a benefit."
Gu Sanqiu looked at Zhongli and said, "Dad, can you explain the principle behind this?"
"Give and take, this is such a simple rule, don't you understand it yet?"
Zhongli said: "Don't overcomplicate everything."
"Okay, don't think about it."
Gu Sanqiu waved his hand: "That's it for now. If there is such an opportunity in the future, perhaps I can still maintain the balance of the seal in this way."
"Let's go, Dad. I'm going to go to Fulong Tree. Remember to have dinner with me tonight."
Zhongli frowned slightly: "What are you doing there?"
"Go play with the old man and ask him to make something for me."
"Take care of those slimes you raised back then. If you let them run around, there will be trouble."
"knew."
night--
"Everyone, please take a seat. These are just some snacks on the table. The dishes will be here soon."
In the Qun Yu Pavilion, Ningguang greeted the guests with a smile. To be more precise, they were basically all acquaintances.
Minglei and Wanye subconsciously looked closely at the "snacks" on the table, and for a moment they couldn't believe that these were just appetizers.
"Calm down. This is how Sister Ningguang behaves. You will get used to it in the future."
Xingqiu was very calm: "Isn't Sanqiu the same? He usually eats and wears lavishly, so why aren't you surprised?"
"Sanqiu isn't that, that obvious."
Minglei didn't know how to describe it: "To put it simply, this is an eye-opener."
Luxurious; this was everyone's first impression of the big table. Even Keqing was subconsciously calculating how much Mora these snacks alone had cost.
When the main course arrived , everyone was once again shocked by the luxurious dishes.
Although it seems a bit strange to use the word "luxurious" to describe the dishes, the way they were presented made these two words come to everyone's mind.
It’s too expensive!
Beidou took a sip of wine carelessly: "Alas, that's why I don't like to eat here. I always feel that this is not a serious dinner at all, but rather a show of wealth."
The friends nodded silently.
No wonder people say that Lord Tianquan eats gems and drinks Mora on a daily basis.
The richest woman in Liyue, her reputation is well-deserved, and the name suits her. In short, those strange rumors are very appropriate.
Gu Sanqiu lifted his legs off the ground and transformed himself into a ghost to help his elder sister arrange some necessary decorations, trying his best to make the office look presentable.
If he hadn't shown his shameless spirit as a younger brother, in short, hadn't "acted coquettishly" for a while, Ningguang would have agreed to hold a family dinner.
Otherwise, her sister, whose style is gradually changing towards that of Ancestor Ganyu, wouldn't even be able to remember what day it is today.
"Okay, that's about it."
The last two dishes were served. They were one meat and one vegetable, which were very generous. The meat was a very simple and generous barbecue set, while the vegetable was a pure white clear soup, which exuded a fascinating aroma.
The hearty and exquisite barbecue is prepared for a tomboy like Beidou. Even if there are other meat dishes, this pirate leader may not like overly "complicated" meals.
As for those who are vegan, they are taking care of Ganyu, who has been in this habit for so many years that she may not even bother to change herself. Of course, it can also be understood that being a vegetarian saves time.
It’s not that troublesome for other people. Basically, there are no dietary restrictions. If there are foods that they hate, they just need to avoid them.
Anyway, there was no way Xingqiu would eat even a little bit of carrot.
"Everyone's tastes are different, so the menu may not be perfect."
Gu Sanqiu pulled out a chair, and Ningguang sat down in the main seat with a smile.
"Home-cooked food, please enjoy."
Home cooking...
Everyone silently repeated these three words several times in their hearts. After Gu Sanqiu sat down, he simply raised his glass and tapped the table lightly.
Everyone smiled knowingly and then raised their drinks.
Gu Sanqiu smiled and filled Ningguang's glasses: "Happy birthday, sister."
"Happy birthday!"
Ningguang smiled and nodded to everyone present: "Thank you very much for gathering at the Qun Yu Pavilion today."
"Ningguang will always remember the opportunity to have such a gathering on my birthday."
Ningguang patted Gu Sanqiu's arm, and the latter understood. He stood up with his sister, holding up his cup and gesturing to everyone.
"Drink first as a sign of respect."
Gu Sanqiu acted decisively, Ningguang moved gently, and everyone started to make a fuss, especially Xingqiu and the others, who started to add fuel to the fire.
Sister Ningguang is a Tianquan star, so she should be careful to drink in moderation as she is busy with work.
But you, Gu Sanqiu, don’t need it.
Why don’t you quickly take your sister’s place and toast to them one by one!
Gu Sanqiu was not pretentious. He stood up again and started to correct people one by one. It was okay for them to drink one cup after another. Before drinking, they just needed to say a birthday speech to my sister, and the people after them could not repeat themselves.
Happy birthday, be sure to be happy.
Everyone started to make noisy speeches. Apart from the literary people like Zhongli and Xingqiu, there was also the generous group led by Beidou, the "love-hate" boss.
The big sister raised a jar of wine and simply said "Happy Birthday" to Ningguang. Then she drank the whole jar of wine, which caused everyone to applaud.
The banquet continued. Gu Sanqiu had just sat down when he saw a sneaky little hand beside him trying to pour some strangely colored liquid into his wine glass.
