Chapter 522

"You'd better not be."

Looking up at the sky, Gu Chen said, "It's getting late, the road back is long, I'll take Klee back first."

"Okay, see you next time~" Venti waved.

Watching Klee bouncing and following Gu Chen away, the smile on Venti's face grew wider.

"Mondstadt really picked up a treasure~"

"G-hee, it feels so good to have someone help hold up the work~"

After the words fell, Venti turned into a light breeze and disappeared.

Gu Chen, who had already walked far away, suddenly looked back, a flash of realization in his eyes.

【Dvalin】: The Sect Leader is almost certain that Venti is the Anemo Archon now, right?

【Seeing Zhongli】: When Klee's bomb was blown away by the wind, the Sect Leader already sensed it. After all, that gust of wind didn't look like a natural wind at all. And the Sect Leader sensing Venti turning into wind and disappearing can be said to have directly confirmed Venti's identity.

【Venti】: Was I exposed so quickly? (Scratches head)

【Shikanoin Heizou】: Mr. Venti, you still haven't put yourself into the video. I personally tend to think that Venti in the video did this actively. Analyzing from Mondstadt's history, the Anemo Archon rarely appears. Mondstadt and Snezhnaya are at daggers drawn, so they are naturally a bit lacking in confidence, after all, the other side's god has always been in power. And Mr. Venti's performance is hinting to Mr. Gu Chen that the Anemo Archon is still there, just go ahead and do it.

【Dvalin】: What? Venti has this layer of consideration? He has this wisdom?

【Venti】: This belongs to malicious bashing. After all, I've lived for nearly three thousand years, isn't it normal to have some wisdom? (Paimon: Hmph-hmph)

【Seeing Zhongli】: Generally speaking, Shikanoin Heizou's analysis makes sense. I hold the same opinion, and I think Venti must really want to be friends with the Sect Leader, borrowing the Sect Leader's name to freeload. (Seeing Zhongli: Drinking tea)

【Barbara】: When Mr. Gu Chen said not to do anything bad in his name, Venti was clearly guilty!

【Kaeya】: This is our Mondstadt's Anemo Archon, the main theme is "freedom"!

【Alhaitham】: But one point that must be mentioned is that behind this unreliability, he is hidden very deep.

【Paimon】: Riddle-makers are like this.

【Lumine】: Why did the dead memories suddenly start attacking me? (Annoyed)

【Venti】: (Crawling G-hee G-hee)

Knights of Favonius.

When Gu Chen returned with Klee, it was already dark.

The office building of the Knights was still brightly lit.

Jean was waiting at the entrance. Seeing them return, she wanted to say something, but seeing Klee sleeping soundly in Gu Chen's arms, she gave up.

Gently taking the sleeping little Klee and arranging her in her room, Jean carefully closed the door and said, "Is she exhausted?"

"Threw bombs for a day, tired when it got dark." Gu Chen nodded.

"Threw bombs for a day?!"

Jean took a deep breath, her budding softness heaving violently.

Gu Chen was her superior, but she couldn't say anything, so she could only sigh deeply.

"I have a sense of proportion, don't worry." Gu Chen shook his head and said, "It's already past work hours, you don't have night work, and you're still at the Knights... working overtime?"

"No, no."

Jean seemed to remember something, her cheeks flushed for a moment, and she shook her head repeatedly.

After returning from the Gunnhildr family, Jean returned to the office according to her usual habit, only to find that there was no work today.

Thinking about it, having nothing to do, she simply took the novel Frederica gave her and started reading.

"The Cold Vice Grand Master Fell in Love with Me"

It didn't matter that she read it; it was dark before she knew it, making Jean feel a bit dazed now.

"Hmm?" Gu Chen looked at Jean suspiciously, "It seems that privacy issues make it inconvenient for you to answer."

Jean said in a panic, "Vice Grand Master..."

"It's work hours now." Gu Chen shook his head.

Jean paused and whispered, "Gu Chen... can you not ask..."

"?"

Gu Chen was stunned and mused.

If it was a topic that made Jean blush and asked him not to ask, it should be a girl's private matter.

"Then I won't ask, rest early."

After speaking, Gu Chen walked toward his residence.

Watching him leave, Jean let out a long sigh of relief.

【Nilou】: Question time! What is this called?! (Excited)

【Collei】: Is there any expert!!

【Yae Miko】: This is called "Peeking at a Romance Novel and Fantasizing You're the Heroine, Almost Getting Discovered by Your Crush"!

【Kirara】: It has to be Senior Yae Miko! (Adoring)

【Lisa】: Jean, you wouldn't want your fantasy about the Vice Grand Master to be spread, would you?

【Jean】:???
