Chapter 669: Jiang Yan, a Jerk! (Requesting Subscriptions!!)

Meanwhile, Jiang Yan and his daughter Jiang Xinyu were strolling along the streets of Liyue.

The Invokation Ceremony is at noon—there's still plenty of time.

"Mr. Xiaobai!!"

At that moment, a familiar shout came from behind Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan turned around in confusion, and when he saw Yinghaiyou and Peng, a smile curled at his lips.

They've finally arrived.

The protagonists of the plot, the twin destinies.

Miss Ying!

It was worth it dragging Xinyu, this little brat, around the entrance streets of Liyue all day.

That's right—because today is the Invokation Ceremony, Jiang Yan knew this was the day the Liyue storyline officially began.

This was precisely the moment when the Traveler, Miss Ying, and Peng first arrived in Liyue.

So Jiang Yan wandered lazily, dragging along the little Xinyu, meandering endlessly at the entrance of Liyue Harbor.

Jiang Xinyu didn't have Jiang Yan's cunning; she only knew her father was extremely generous today.

She could buy anything she wanted.

She clutched her already round, bloated little belly, looking utterly satisfied.

"You are... Miss Ying and..."

Jiang Yan's eyes flickered with thought, feigning complete unfamiliarity with them.

"It's Peng!"

Seeing Jiang Yan struggle for ages to recall Peng's name, Peng stomped her foot in anger.

"Hahaha, of course—Peng! Hello there, are you visiting Liyue?"

Jiang Yan scratched his head, feigning sudden realization, then asked Peng and Ying.

Jiang Yan knew perfectly well why Ying and Peng had come.

But he needed to pretend he didn't.

After all, he'd only met Ying and Peng a few times—if he acted too familiar, Ying's sharp, sensitive intuition would immediately suspect him.

But judging by their current demeanor, Jiang Yan hadn't slipped up yet.

Good.

"Mr. Xiaobai, I heard from Klee that you work here?"

Peng looked at Jiang Yan with curiosity.

Working in Liyue, and this easy?

"Yes, I've always worked in Liyue."

"Mainly handling some managerial duties."

Jiang Yan smiled warmly at Peng.

As the former Tianquan, saying he handled managerial work wasn't wrong.

After all, managing a nation is still a form of management!

"Oh~ I see!"

"Mr. Jiang Yan, who is this person beside you?"

Peng nodded, about to ask more, but Jiang Xinyu's intense, fiery gaze burned into her.

"Flying little person!"

Jiang Xinyu stared at Peng with sparkling eyes.

Jiang Xinyu always loved strange, odd things.

Like the giant horns of the Exalted One of the Sky.

Or the magnificent feathers of the Exalted One of Water and Mountains.

Those had deeply delighted Jiang Xinyu.

Now, facing this flying Emergency Food, it struck her heart instantly.

"What flying little person?! It's Peng!!"

Peng stomped her foot in midair, looking furious.

"Hahaha, sorry sorry—my Xinyu is always curious about new things."

Jiang Yan chuckled.

"Jiang Xinyu? Mr. Xiaobai, she is..."

Ying had been watching the two similar-looking figures since the start, her eyes questioning Jiang Yan.

She already had a rough answer—she was just waiting for Jiang Yan to confirm it.

"Yes, Xinyu is my daughter, just like Klee."

Jiang Yan gently ruffled Jiang Xinyu's soft hair and smiled at Ying.

"More precisely, Jiang Xinyu is Klee's older sister."

"Klee's older sister? Is Jiang Xinyu also Ms. Alice's daughter?"

Peng looked at Jiang Yan with confusion.

But Jiang Yan shook his head.

"No, Jiang Xinyu is not Alice's daughter."

"Eh???"

Peng shot straight upward, staring at Jiang Yan in shock.

Even Lumine's eyes widened, staring at Jiang Yan in utter shock.

At this very moment, a melodramatic saga began brewing in both their minds.

It gradually started to expand widely.

Ms. Alice has faithfully guarded the Teyvat border alone, protecting her lover and child.

Yet Mr. Jiang Xiaobai, Alice's lover, was here in Liyue, spreading his flags high and beating drums in full swing.

He had even fathered a daughter with someone else!

"You, you, you!!!"

Paimon pointed an angry finger at Jiang Yan, as if looking at a man who had lost all conscience.

Even Lumine placed her hands on her hips, glaring at the other party in anger.

"Mr. Jiang Xiaobai, how can you face Ms. Alice like this?"

"Yes! While poor Alice toils hard out there, you go and do such things that betray her!"
