Even worse, the boss glanced at the remaining bread in his hand and slapped it straight out of it.

"Get lost. If I'd known you were from the Lawrence family, I wouldn't have sold you anything."

"Hey!"

Su Bai instinctively shouted.

The sudden turn of events left him baffled and at a loss.

Just as he bent down to pick up the bread on the ground, he found the boss had beaten him to it, stepping on the bread with his foot.

"Get out! If you don't leave, I'll hit you."

The quarrel by the street also drew the attention of others.

Everyone's gaze was cold and filled with disgust.

Terrified, Su Bai trembled involuntarily several times.

"A child of the Lawrence family?"

"And one with a Liyue appearance?"

"Hmph, seems like someone's child. I recall a fellow from the Lawrence family ignored his family's advice and fell in love with a Liyue woman."

"Oh, that fellow? I've heard of him. The couple seemed to have died very early."

"Never expected their child to come to Mondstadt's main city. What bad luck..."

"Leave quickly. You might catch something unclean just by being near him."

"..."

At the same time.

On the other side of the street.

A certain my lord's face instantly darkened due to the murmuring voices.

He quickly grabbed a blue-haired girl by the hand and hurried away.

"He is..."

The girl, full of suspicion, took a deep look at the fleeing Su Bai.

"Don't mind him. Hmph..."

"A disgrace to the family."

The girl: "....."

The blue-haired girl was not hard to recognize.

Many in Mondstadt knew her identity.

She was Eula, the heir the Lawrence family had pinned their hopes on.

Amber: "The girl is Eula, right? I remember seeing a photo of you when you were little."

Eula: "....."

Venti: "Wait, is the Lawrence family in Mondstadt that miserable? It's just a child, is it worth..."

Dvalin: "You are the Anemo Archon of Mondstadt. Who do you think you're asking, Barbatos?"

Barbara: "....."

Zhong Li: "At least the mystery of Su Bai's identity is solved. His father was from the Lawrence family, and his mother is one of us from Liyue."

Yuan Shang: "Why does it feel like Su Ye is in the worst situation ever? The people of Mondstadt don't welcome him, and it seems even the people of the Lawrence family don't welcome him."

Lumine: "Did my lord swap fate with Eula? Why is it exactly the same as Eula? Neither side likes them."

Jean: "They are not the same. The Lawrences despised the Knights, and only after Eula joined the Favonius Knights did they start despising Eula."

Lisa: "Yes, but little cutie Su Bai has been despised by both sides from the very beginning."

Amber: "It must be because of Su Bai's father. Just now, I heard someone say his father ignored his family's advice and fell in love with a Liyue woman. The Lawrence family has many rules."

Kaeya: "Etiquette from the era of the old nobility, hehehe..."

Furina: "This is too despicable. Do the people of Mondstadt have a problem? They were ruled by the Lawrences a thousand years ago. A thousand years have passed, yet they still ostracize the Lawrences here. Their history studies on the Lawrences are too good. How many things can a thousand years change? Only the prejudice against the Lawrences remains unchanged?"

Furina: "Truly outrageous. It feels like the Mondstadt people's hatred for the Lawrences is carved into their blood."

Aether: "Brother-in-law, cut down these Mondstadt people. Rebel."

Venti: "No need, no need. It's a matter of a past life. Don't take it too seriously."

Su Bai: "....."

If one followed normal human thinking, at least for Su Bai.

If he personally experienced all this, he would make these Mondstadt people's lives a living hell.

Send them all to the Great Snow Mountain to be fed to the Hilichurls.

However, regarding the events of the reincarnation story, he did not have much emotional fluctuation.

It was completely unrelated to his reincarnation mission anyway. Besides, the System must have its reasons for doing so.

After all, the effects of the first three cycles were very good.

Su Bai looked at Nahida, who was staring blankly at the light screen, not knowing how to persuade her.

"How can these Mondstadt people be like this?"

Nahida's pouting appearance was adorable to the extreme.

"How can they treat a child with such an attitude?"

"And you were so cute when you were little."

The main reason was that the boy in the light screen was the young Su Bai.

If it were someone else, Nahida would never have such an extreme emotional change.

"Sigh, I don't know either."

"But that was all from a past life; it must not overly affect my current mood."

Su Bai held Ye Er in his arms, gently stroking her long ears.

This caused Ye Er's breathing to become somewhat rapid.

【"What is going on?"】

【"Why are these people so strange?"】

【"They were fine just a moment ago, then suddenly became fierce and menacing."】

【Su Bai, his face full of worry, hid himself in an alley.】

【Avoiding the crowd as much as possible, he wandered aimlessly through Decheng.】

【The unknown grandfather who had raised him passed away previously.】

【Su Bai, still so young, could only rely on himself to survive in this world.】

【To stay alive, one naturally had to go where people were.】

【Who could have thought that upon just arriving in Decheng, he would face such exclusion from so many people simply because of his name?】

【"I really don't understand."】

【"Is there a problem with my name?"】

【"Hear 'Lawrence', and they immediately turn hostile?"】

【Su Bai, annoyed, kicked the stone before him away.】

【Judging from the shop owner's change of attitude just now.】

【The other party's expression changed on the spot only after hearing him reveal his full name.】

【"Su Bai" should be fine, so the remaining part is "Lawrence"; the problem must lie in these three characters.】

【"Hahaha..."】

【Not far away, the laughter of children interrupted Su Bai, who was deep in thought.】

【Looking up, he saw several children snatching a kite from a golden-haired girl.】

【Seeing the girl's anxious appearance, she was likely being bullied.】

Barbara: "Eh, is that sister?"

Lisa: "A golden high ponytail; is that Jean?"

Jean: "....."

Diluc: "Looks like it is Jean; it must be Jean from her childhood as well."

Amber: "Wow, I didn't expect Jean the Director to have been bullied when she was young? This..."

Jean: "When we were young, no one understood much; occasionally encountering mischievous children is normal, and it wasn't really bullying anyway."

Lumine: "I originally thought this time it would be Eula giving birth to Su Ye's child, but unexpectedly, Jean the Director appeared out of nowhere."
