Chapter 530: This Life, Everyone Is Happy, Aren't They? (Subscribe!!)
After lunch, Jiang Yan and his group stayed at the Kamisato household until the setting sun was nearly gone.
"Little Linghua, little Ayato, we're off!"
Jiang Yan waved to the Kamisato family standing at the doorway, with Little Ganyu and Little Ningguang's four little ones in tow.
"Mm, Brother Jiang Yan, don't forget what we promised!"
Kamisato Linghua shouted loudly at Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan smiled and nodded, then raised his index finger to his lips.
Little Linghua immediately understood what Jiang Yan meant and happily nodded at once.
"Linghua, what did you two arrange?"
Kamisato Ayato, standing nearby, very keenly picked up on the exchange between Kamisato Linghua and Jiang Yan and asked warily.
"Not telling you, hmph!"
Kamisato Linghua twisted her little head and gave a coquettish snort.
She had just promised Jiangyanbu Society she wouldn't leak the secret between them.
How could she tell her own brother so easily?
Kamisato Ayato:...
Sigh, forget it.
They're in Inazuma anyway—what could Jiang Yan and Linghua possibly arrange?
Kamisato Ayato thought to himself and relaxed.
After leaving the Kamisato residence, Jiang Yan did not walk back the way they had originally come.
Since they had come to Inazuma, naturally they ought to have a proper look around.
Jiang Yan led Little Ganyu and Little Ningguang's four little ones down a different path.
Compared with the little path they had taken coming here, the road ahead was easier to walk.
At the very least, it wasn't so desolate.
And so, Jiang Yan led the little ones, playing all the way, back to Inazuma City.
By the time they returned to Inazuma City, The Sky Has Already completely darkened.
Inazuma City was ablaze with lights at night.
One had to admit, the Inazuma governed by Raiden Makoto and the Inazuma governed by Lei Dianying could truly be called two different faces.
In her past life, Lei Dianying was not indifferent to her own people.
It was just that, within the storyline, Lei Dianying—having endured the passing of Raiden Makoto, Kitsune Saigu, Tiger Chiyo, and Tatara Yuri and others—suffered a tremendous blow to her heart.
The greatest blow was undoubtedly Raiden Makoto's passing.
It drove Lei Dianying to shut herself away on the spot.
Moreover, not wanting to lose anyone again, Lei Dianying even took up an even more extreme path of Eternity.
Within the rolling torrent of history, Lei Dianying had actually dared to dream of keeping Inazuma frozen in that single moment forever.
She even created the Raiden Shogun puppet and sealed herself away in that empty Plane of Euthymia, for hundreds of years on end.
Jiang Yan knew that loneliness was an extremely painful thing.
All the more in that Plane of Euthymia, where there was nothing at all.
Forget the warmth of human life—even mountains, rivers, birds, and beasts were absent; it was a dead, empty place.
Staying in a place like that for hundreds of years—Jiang Yan felt despair just thinking about it.
But fortunately, in this life.
In this life, she did not go through that.
Raiden Makoto, Tiger Chiyo, Kitsune Saigu, and Yae Miko were all still by her side.
As for Tatara Yuri, there was nothing he could do—Liyue had only just been settled back then; how could he have gone to Inazuma just to save one person?
But these things hardly mattered.
At the very least, with him and their company.
Lei Dianying could still be that silly, dazed Shadow Warrior.
That was enough.
Walking down the main street of Inazuma City, seeing the happy smiles on the faces of the people around him, Jiang Yan could not help but show a gentle smile of his own.
Yes, it wasn't only they who were happy.
He himself was very happy too, wasn't he?
Jiang Yan gently held Little Ganyu's soft, slender hand, breathing in the fragrance drifting from the person beside him.
Little Ningguang's four little ones ran about the streets of Inazuma, looking here, browsing there, very excited.
Since arriving in Inazuma City, Jiang Yan had not yet taken them around properly—they had gone straight to the Kamisato residence first.
So when the four little ones saw stalls in a style completely different from those on Liyue's streets, they were naturally very curious.
"Big brother..."
At that moment, little Sara ran over, a flash of conflict and hesitation crossing her soft, cute little face.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Yan lowered his head and asked gently.
"Sara, Sara wants to eat that..."
Sara hesitated for a moment, then pointed at a stall and said.
"Oh?"
Following the direction little Sara pointed, Jiang Yan looked toward the stall selling tri-colored dango.
"Oh! Good evening, Mr. from Liyue!"
The stall vendor was clearly the type who made friends easily; seeing Jiang Yan look over, he immediately called out a greeting.
After all, the clothing worn by Jiang Yan and the others was obviously Liyue style.
People of Inazuma are very friendly toward people of Liyue.
"Good evening. May I ask how much you sell these Dango for?"
Jiang Yan stepped forward and asked the merchant with a smile.
"Twenty Mora each. If you buy more, I can give you a discount."
The vendor opened the wooden lid in front of him; inside lay many Dango, emitting a sweet fragrance.
Jiang Yan suddenly remembered that Raiden Ei seemed to like Dango as well.
No, that's not quite right; Raiden Ei really likes sweets.
He recalled that in her voice lines, she had specifically mentioned her favorite food.
Because of this, she even bickered with General Scaramouche.
Raiden Ei: "Don't listen to General Scaramouche! Sweets! Cavities and such can be fixed with a new set of teeth; how could this possibly affect the pursuit of Eternity?"
From this, one can see how much Raiden Ei loves sweets and the like.
"Pack twenty for me."
Jiang Yan said to the merchant with a smile; he decided to bring a few for Raiden Ei and the others.
"Very well, Mr. I'll pack them for you right away!"
Seeing that a big order had arrived, the merchant was very pleased and quickly packed the twenty Dango into an exquisite box.
"The total is 400 Mora; just give me 350 Mora."
