Chapter 247: Yae Miko: Dianxia, oh no

"Hurry up, tell me honestly. If you act temperamental again, I'll punish you just like before!"

Luo Li's words made Yae Miko's eyes twitch.

"Alright, since Dianxia says so, I can only willingly accept the punishment."

The punishment that the little Yae of the past feared was nothing to the current Miko.

She even took the initiative to bend over and lie on Luo Li's lap, her slender waist dipping to reveal a charming dimple, while simultaneously pushing out the full curves beneath it.

When she was disobedient in the past, Luo Li would use a bamboo strip to hit her bottom and palms, and little Yae was very afraid of this.

Just now, perhaps because they hadn't seen each other for a long time, Luo Li had subconsciously treated her as the little Yae of the past, forgetting that after so long, the little girl had grown into the unflappable Guuji-sama.

"What's wrong? Is Dianxia not going to punish me?"

Her peach-colored eyeshadow was very alluring. Yae Miko rested her cheek on one hand, looking not like someone being punished, but like a fox spirit deliberately trying to seduce him.

She even shifted her body, finding a more comfortable angle to wait for the punishment to descend.

Luo Li: "..."

What on earth did Saiguu teach you?

He had no doubt that if he hit her, this charming fox shrine maiden would definitely continue to cause more trouble.

For example, the low, soft singing she would deliberately make to make Sangonomiya Kokomi beside them puff out her cheeks.

"Please don't get so close to Father!"

Just watching Yae Miko lying in Luo Li's arms made her very unhappy. Kokomi pretended to formally reprimand her, her eyes full of hostility.

"Giggle, so it really is the title of 'Father'."

Yae Miko gave a few low, hum-like laughs, staring at Luo Li with a sidelong glance that looked at a scumbag: "So Dianxia likes this style. Why didn't you let me try it before? But it's not too late now. Do you want me to call out a few times for you to hear?"

Compared to the slightly green and immature Kokomi, Miko was clearly much more mature and enchanting.

Even compared to Kitsune Saiguu, Luo Li had to sigh that the student had surpassed the master.

And during the process, Miko deliberately gave Kokomi a provocative look.

Luo Li: "...¨． ..."

What on earth are you here for?!

Luo Li was completely dumbfounded. Was she here to compete for favor?

The hostility in Kokomi's eyes grew heavier. If Mikoshi Chiyo and Asase Hibiki only made her a little jealous, then Yae Miko's arrival gave her a sense of panic that her status was about to be stripped away and replaced.

"How is it? Father? Does it sound better than the way your other daughter calls you?"

Yae Miko didn't wait for Kokomi to speak; she used her waist and abdominal strength to lift her body and lean into Luo Li's ear, whispering in a way that made one's bones go numb.

Hiss!

Luo Li inexplicably felt an itch in his heart. This was completely different from Kokomi's soft, sweet, and sticky way of calling him.

He couldn't harbor any blasphemous thoughts toward Kokomi, but Miko's words... *cough cough*.

"That's enough, behave yourself."

Flicking her on the forehead, Luo Li felt very helpless; the current Miko had no weaknesses.

"Oh my, wasn't Father going to punish me? Why did you stop?"

Miko, who had gained an advantage and was still acting spoiled, deliberately provoked him, continuing to use the title from just before.

"Little thing, act normal, or I'll really deal with you."

Knowing when to stop, Yae Miko turned and simply sat on his lap, naturally crossing her legs, staring with a smiling gaze at Sangonomiya Kokomi, whose anger had been building up the whole time.

She was very curious about this brilliant resistance army strategist and leader; she had heard of her for a long time, but she hadn't expected that outside the battlefield, she would be such a jealous young girl in private.

Truly interesting.

But now the focus had to be on Luo Li; she hadn't finished making trouble for him yet, and she would have plenty of time to tease Kokomi later.

"Now you can tell me, how did you find me?" Seeing that Miko seemed to have temporarily ceased fire, Luo Li asked again.

"Of course I can, but before that, can Father explain the origin of this thing to me?"

Speaking softly, Yae Miko took out a mirror-like artifact from her bosom and tossed it gently in her hand.

Sitting on his lap as if she were sitting on some throne, Miko's sharp, interrogating aura erupted.

Luo Li took the mirror and roughly understood; sure enough, those two, Lumine and Paimon, had slipped up, otherwise it would be unlikely for him to be exposed.

Sooner or later, he would settle the score with those two who had sworn to follow his instructions.

Thinking this, Luo Li acted as if nothing was wrong on the surface: "It's just a trinket passed down from the Grand Narukami Shrine."

"¨． Indeed, I have some impression of this thing, but the images contained within seem a bit unusual."

Her smile was a bit cold. Yae Miko leaned intimately against Luo Li and asked: "Can Father enlighten your daughter?"

Kokomi scolded loudly in her heart, forbidding her from leaning so close, but seeing that Luo Li didn't object, she could only sulk in secret.

"It's just images recording old friends from the past. Thanks to this thing, mixed with the longing for them, my time in the Abyss with Ei went more smoothly, eventually leading to our escape from the Abyss and return to the Teyvat continent. Is there a problem?"

"No, of course there's no problem, but aren't there a few too many images of me in there?"

Yae Miko gritted her teeth in secret. It was more than just a few; if their respective time was divided into ten parts, she alone occupied seven.

And they were all those hilarious, stupid-looking images; there were plenty of cute ones, but even more shameful dark history.

It was like a montage of one person.

Luo Li almost couldn't help but laugh out loud. Meeting Miko's angry, glaring eyes, he finally managed to suppress his laughter.

"Cough, childhood memories are easily forgotten, so Saiguu and the others and I reached a consensus to record your precious and cute childhood, so that you wouldn't be unable to find them when you wanted to reminisce later."

Such a serious answer made Miko furious. Was that called a precious and cute childhood?

Looking at it, it was all dark history, and her anger level rose rapidly.

Most importantly, it had been peeked at by the Traveler and the flying pet, which was the point that made her the angriest.

It would be one thing if she looked at it herself, but to actually hand it over to outsiders!

How could Miko endure this?!

Coupled with her original grievances and his behavior of wandering outside and not returning, it was just adding fuel to the fire.

So you like to wander outside and not return, huh? Fine, then you have to pay the corresponding price!
