Chapter 598

The key is, this is a question that the old ancestor outside wants to ask; what can I do about it?

Diluc, I'm sorry.

I've already tried my best to signal you with my eyes, but you don't seem to intend to receive the message.

Then don't blame your brother for being unrighteous.

"Kaeya, you've arrived just in time. This fellow Diluc actually wants to implement laws in Mondstadt similar to those in Liyue."

"Liyue does this because their god believes in contracts and pursues fairness; such a plan cannot work in Mondstadt!"

Jean said angrily.

There was no way; she couldn't help but be angry.

This fellow Diluc's temper is simply too stubborn.

The people of Liyue have the absolute authority of the Tianquan, and strict laws were implemented right when Liyue was first founded.

It is an environment fundamentally different from Mondstadt.

You expect a group of people who have grown accustomed to a free and loose lifestyle to suddenly be constrained?

Isn't that asking for protests and marches?

"Jean, you are simply spoiling those people too much!"

Diluc finally lashed out at Jean.

"Calm down, calm down!"

A bead of cold sweat flowed down Kaeya's forehead; he hurriedly acted as a peacemaker between the two.

"Kaeya, you say it: whose viewpoint is right and whose is wrong between the two of us!"

Jean turned the battlefield toward Kaeya and spoke to him.

"I think both of your viewpoints are wrong!"

Just at that moment, a clear voice came from outside the door.

Oh no!

Kaeya's facial expression froze, while Jean, Diluc, and Lisa all looked toward the door at the same time.

"Who is it?"

"Kaeya, is there someone outside?"

Diluc and Jean spoke simultaneously.

"I asked Kaeya to keep it from you, so you need not be surprised."

Jiang Yan walked in from outside the door, looking at the few people in the office.

"Mr. Jiang Yan!"

Diluc suddenly stood up and said with a face full of joy.

Jean's eyes sparkled with light, and her face was also overflowing with delight.

Lisa squinted her eyes, examining the man before her with some curiosity.

The man before her looked somewhat familiar!

She seemed to have met the other party when she was in Sumeru.

"Hmm, Diluc, Jean, long time no see."

Looking at the mature Jean and Diluc before him, Jiang Yan smiled and said:

"You've all grown so big."

"Especially Jean; they say girls change eighteen times as they grow up. Now I almost didn't recognize you; you've become so beautiful."

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, Jean's pretty face turned slightly red, and she felt somewhat embarrassed.

"It's not that exaggerated..."

In front of Jiang Yan, Jean was as shy as a little girl.

Even Lisa saw Jean like this for the first time and was somewhat surprised.

"Mr. Jiang Yan, why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming? I could have received you at Chengmenkou!"

Diluc stepped forward, brought a stool for Jiang Yan, and said respectfully.

For Diluc, Jiang Yan was like his idol.

This is also why Diluc even wanted to emulate the bills Jiang Yan promulgated in Liyue and promulgate them in Mondstadt as well.

"It's fine; I came to Mondstadt with my own matters to handle anyway."

Jiang Yan waved his hand and placed it on Diluc's shoulder.

"I already know about the argument you just had with Jean."

"In this matter, both you and Jean are wrong."

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, this time Diluc did not argue with Jean as before; instead, he spoke respectfully to Jiang Yan with an attitude of learning.

"Please, Mr., give us your guidance!"

As the Tianquan who has governed Liyue for thousands of years, and with Liyue now recognized as the first powerful nation on the Teyvat continent, he has an undeniable share of the credit.

Moreover, he once gave guidance regarding the development of Mondstadt.

Jiang Yan criticized the shortcomings in the ruling styles of Diluc and Jean respectively.

Diluc's biggest shortcoming is that his methods are always too radical.

If it were in Liyue, perhaps it would be fine, but in the large environment of Mondstadt, Diluc's approach is likely to provoke resistance from the people of Mondstadt.

And Jean is simply too gentle; she and Diluc are essentially two extremes.
