Chapter 203

Although he had expected it, when they truly met, the young lady's aggrieved and sad expression still made him sigh.

"It really is you, Teacher?!"

The moment she received the response, Ganyu could no longer suppress the surging emotions in her heart, lunging into his arms and hugging him tightly while sobbing.

She didn't know if she was afraid he would drift away again or worried that this was just a phantom dream.

Ganyu hugged him exceptionally tightly, almost wanting to merge into his body.

Hearing Luo Li was silent; while hugging the young lady's waist, his other hand gently pressed on her head, stroking her long water-blue hair.

"Sorry, it took so long for me to come see you."

Ganyu did not answer, only burying her head deeply in his arms, with only the sound of sobbing to be heard.

Hearing Luo Li tried his best to soothe the young lady.

All along, he had treated Venti as a template for learning the truth that he was not dead, thinking that everyone would be pleasantly surprised by this.

But he didn't expect that guy to be simply heartless, completely different from a crybaby girl like Ganyu back then.

At the same time, Miss Keqing nearby watched, dumbfounded.

"What... is going on?!"

She was stunned, completely not expecting the plot to develop so bizarrely.

It seemed that Hearing Luo Li, whom she had just met, and Lady Ganyu seemed to have known each other for a long time.

And, the word "Teacher."

Others might not know, but she knew Ganyu's identity; she was a half-immortal Qilin who had signed a contract with the Rex Lapis two or three thousand years ago.

Being able to be the teacher of such a half-immortal, his identity was clearly extraordinary; thinking about it, it was terrifying.

At the same time, Miss Keqing could also understand why the other party could easily answer her questions; he was learned in both ancient and modern times, as if he were omnipotent and omniscient.

It took a long while to calm down; Miss Keqing saw Ganyu's sobbing sound gradually become smaller, and only then did she lower her voice.

"Um, what is this?"

She wanted to know the reason for this.

Facing the question, Hearing Luo Li gave a wry smile and didn't tell the truth, but said lightly.

"I went missing for five hundred years; perhaps this girl mistakenly thought I had already died."

Missing for five hundred years?

Miss Keqing frowned slightly, immediately associating it with the disaster five hundred years ago.

After all, being able to make the teacher of an immortal go missing for no reason must have been a major event.

"Could it be that you are the Liyue predecessor who went missing in the Abyss disaster five hundred years ago?"

"Yes, and no."

Hearing Luo Li couldn't explain it well; saying he was a Liyue predecessor could indeed count, and he did go missing in the Abyss disaster, but connecting them didn't feel right.

After answering Miss 670 Keqing's question, he looked back at Ganyu, who was buried in his arms.

"Alright, if you don't get up, my clothes will be soaked through. So much time has passed, why are you still that crybaby little girl?"

The slightly teasing tone finally made Ganyu lift her head.

The young lady's eyes were blurry with tears, the corners of her eyes were somewhat red and swollen, and her body was still pressed tightly against him, completely unwilling to let go.

This longing that had lasted for five hundred years, she probably couldn't let go of it in a short time.

Hearing Luo Li examined Ganyu seriously, wiping away the tear stains that had spread.

During this time, Miss Keqing waited patiently; the doubts rippling in her heart had long since overwhelmed the matters of work.

After a long time, until the sorrow had been vented, Ganyu reluctantly moved away from Hearing Luo Li, only her eyes still carried a trace of pitiful grievance.

Hearing Luo Li was slightly amused and said softly: "Don't you still have work matters? Explain it clearly to Miss Keqing first; I will wait for you here, and after that, whatever you want to ask, I will tell you."

This promise finally made Ganyu barely regain her reason.

She had official business on this trip, but she had been shocked by Hearing Hearing Luo Li "resurrection" and had wasted a lot of time.

Sniffing, Ganyu took a deep breath and became that strong and convincing secretary again.

The only person who could make her break her defense was probably Hearing Luo Li alone.

Seeing this, Miss Keqing thought to herself.
