Chapter 421: I'm Different, I'm Openly Happy (Please Subscribe!!)

"Mm-hmm, don't worry. Let her play outside for a while; I'll go pick her up tonight."

Jiang Yan said with a smile.

With that layer of spatial film in place, Jiang Yan could clearly see where Keqing was at this moment.

However, he believed that at her age, Keqing wouldn't come home too late; it was likely just the novelty of exploration keeping her out.

"Then I thank you, my lord Tianquan."

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, Keqing's grandfather finally set his mind at ease.

After all, on this land, aside from the Geo Archon, no one else inspired more security than this my lord Tianquan standing before them.

After chatting with Keqing's grandfather for a while, Jiang Yan led the little ones to the Yuehai Pavilion to pick up Ganyu from work.

The Qixing was not busy today, so Ganyu finished work quite early.

After waiting for some time, Ganyu walked out from the Yuehai Pavilion.

"Mistress!"

Little Ningguang saw Ganyu and shouted while waving her hand.

Ganyu also saw the five people standing at the entrance of the Yuehai Pavilion.

The scene looked just like a husband bringing four cute children to wait for his wife to get off work.

Ganyu's pretty face suddenly flushed red.

"357, why have you come?"

Ganyu approached Jiang Yan and spoke in a soft, gentle voice.

"I just saw the rain stop, so I brought the little ones out for a stroll."

Jiang Yan said with a smile.

"We played a bit too long, and seeing the time was about right, I simply came to pick you up."

"So this is your excuse for skipping work all day?"

Ganyu looked at Jiang Yan with some helplessness.

Jiang Yan chuckled.

If going to work wasn't for the sake of skipping work and slacking off, then going to work would be utterly meaningless.

Besides, it wasn't busy today; staying at the Yuehai Pavilion meant there was nothing to do anyway.

"Let's go; we won't eat at home today. We'll go eat at Old Mao's place."

Jiang Yan said this, took Ganyu's slender hand, and spoke.

"Old Mao? Didn't he just get married?"

Ganyu was somewhat puzzled.

"Didn't he go on a honeymoon with his wife?"

"Who says otherwise?"

Jiang Yan told Ganyu about Master Mao's situation.

Even Ganyu, after listening, sighed and said:

"Old Mao is indeed a fortunate person to have met such a good partner."

"Yes, yes, this fellow doesn't know he's in luck; he married such a virtuous wife, so he should just be secretly happy."

While speaking, Jiang Yan suddenly leaned closer to Ganyu.

"Of course, I'm different; I'm openly happy."

Saying this, Jiang Yan chuckled.

"Naughty!"

Ganyu's pretty face flushed red, and she lightly tapped Jiang Yan's arm.

Meanwhile, Ningguang and the other four cute children surrounded Jiang Yan and Ganyu; the six of them, like a family of six, walked along the streets of Liyue.

They arrived at Wanmin Restaurant.

"Ah! My lord Tianquan."

Old Mao saw Jiang Yan bringing Ganyu and others here and greeted them with a smile.

"Enough, Old Mao; I'm not on duty now. Just call me Jiang Yan."

Jiang Yan waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Looks like it's raining today, so you aren't very busy either."

After finishing, he walked into the restaurant, found an empty table at random, and sat down with Ganyu and Ningguang and the others.

"Hahaha, it's fine; it's not even mealtime yet."

Master Mao said to Jiang Yan:

"Just order whatever you want to eat; I'll send over two of my signature dishes later."

"That won't do; how can you run a business like that?"

Jiang Yan quickly waved his hand and looked at the menu placed on the table.

"Give me a Fragrant Tender Pepper Chicken, Crystal Shrimp, Cold-Pressed Mint, Stir-Fried Fried Qingxin, Crab Roe Tofu, and finally, a Squirrel Fish."

Jiang Yan ordered many dishes in one breath; after all, there were many people, so six dishes were enough.

"Bring over a few bowls of rice later, okay?"

Jiang Yan said to Master Mao with a smile.

"Alright, please wait a moment; I'll bring it up for you shortly!"

Master Mao nodded, recorded the dishes to be prepared, and walked into the kitchen.

Just then, Jiang Yan suddenly sensed that the protective mechanism he had set up on Keqing had been triggered.

Is Little Keqing in danger?

Jiang Yan stood up and said to Little Ganyu:

"I'm stepping out for a bit, I'll be back soon."

"Oh right, help me let Old Mao know, tell him to prepare an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks."

Although Little Ganyu was a little puzzled as to why Jiang Yan needed to go out at this time, she still nodded.

She believed Jiang Yan would give her an explanation when he returned.

As soon as Jiang Yan finished speaking, a Chuansong Sect portal suddenly appeared, and Jiang Yan stepped into it.

In the depths of the forest on Mount Tianheng.

Keqing was holding a wooden stick in her hand. Perhaps because Mount Tianheng was very muddy after the rain, Little Keqing's body was covered in mud.

In front of her, a Hilichurl Chieftain wielding a large rock shield stood there.

Between the two of them, there seemed to be an invisible wall.

No matter how the Hilichurl Chieftain charged, it could not breach this air barrier.

This infuriated the Hilichurl Chieftain.

It frantically smashed against the air barrier in front of it, letting out roars one after another.

Keqing was, after all, a child, even though she had already prepared herself for the dangers she might encounter on her adventure.

But when she faced this kind of monster for the first time, she was still very scared inside.

Although she did not know who had set up the air barrier that suddenly enveloped her.
