Not to mention holidays, even his birthday was not taken seriously by him.
The main thing is that he can't quite figure out which birthday he should celebrate in this world
From previous life
But he had long forgotten his birthday in his previous life.
There is no clue about the birthday of the continent of Teyvat.
The rich man did suggest to him that why not treat the day he joined the Fools as his own birthday
But Bai Luo rejected it.
Anyway, he will celebrate his birthday alone, so it doesn’t matter whether he celebrates it or not.
"Stay and have a look. After being busy all year, it's a new experience to take a break."
"... ..."
Zhongli's words seemed to have some kind of magic, causing Bai Luo, who had originally not intended to join in the fun, to actually hesitate.
Why
Zhongli's tone, as if that of an elder
Or... that busy year
New Year... ...New Year.
I... ... How long has it been since I celebrated the Chinese New Year
A big part of the reason why Bai Luo is unwilling to celebrate the festival in Teyvat is because of a sense of identity.
He is the twelfth seat, independent of the eleven executive officers.
He is an outsider who possesses extraordinary powers without the need for the Eye of God.
He is a BK-201 who does not exist in this fake starry sky.
He is not from this world, he... ...doesn't want to celebrate the festival here.
"Mr. Zhongli, can I trouble you with something?"
Picking up the cup in front of him, Bai Luo took a sip and spoke.
"Go ahead."
"Can you say Happy New Year to me?"
Bai Luo still had a smile on his face, and he was still as sunny and warm.
But beneath this sunny smile, there is a hint of sadness.
"Happy New Year?"
"Um."
"Happy New Year."
"Happy New Year."
After drinking the wine in the glass, Bai Luo raised his hand slightly as a farewell to Zhongli.
Afterwards, he staggered across a pool of clear water and disappeared at the end of the spring.
"This wine won't make you drunk."
Pouring himself another glass of wine, Zhongli shook his head slightly and said.
But sometimes, even alcohol that doesn't make people drunk can make people drunk.
It depends on the person drinking, whether he wants to get drunk or not.
"After that, let Liuyun add another stool."
After drinking the wine in the cup, Zhongli looked at Xiao who was still in the sack.
After removing the outer layer of sack, Zhongli originally wanted to take him to the cave of Master Liuyun Jiefeng and temporarily place him there.
I never thought that as soon as I picked him up, I saw the cat-like lines on his face again.
And it's even more intensive than last time.
"You really don't show any mercy at all."
Fortunately, Zhongli was mentally prepared this time, so after seeing the pattern on Xiao's face, he did not get angry. Instead, he stretched out his hand and intended to use his strength to help him wipe it off again.
But after he raised his hand, a piece of paper fell out of the Demon-Subduing Sage's arms.
On the right side of the note, there was something similar to a poem.
Who said the fairy tea is precious
I don't want the tea to get cold and people to leave.
Who knows the words of the immortal under the tree
The right and wrong will be decided by future generations.
Smilingly welcome the cloudless and carefree fairy,
Seduce the breeze into the banquet.
The words on the note were ugly, and it took Zhongli a lot of time to decipher them.
Not only are the characters ugly, but this thing that doesn't look like a poem or a painting also sounds weird when read, as if it was written that way on purpose just to rhyme.
As expected, he is not a child who grew up in Liyue, and what he writes is also a mess.
Zhongli casually folded it in the middle and intended to put it in his pocket.
But it would have been fine if it hadn’t folded, but this folding... ...something happened.
Because Bai Luo wrote more towards the right side of the paper, when he folded it from the middle, most of the content was folded to the right half, leaving only the first word of each sentence on the left half of the paper.
Who is the tea and who is the smile.
Zhongli:
Chapter 792: Meeting Ye Lan Again
"The Lantern Festival..."
Before reaching Liyue Harbor, Bai Luo had already noticed that many people on the road were discussing the Lantern Festival.
Perhaps because the soul of Rock King has returned to heaven, this year's Sea Lantern Festival is more lively and prosperous than any previous years.
Many businessmen want to take this opportunity to make a name for themselves.
After nightfall, some vendors, unable to obtain business licenses from the Liyue General Affairs Department, simply set up stalls outside Liyue, hoping to get a piece of the pie.
The General Affairs Department also noticed this matter, but for the sake of the festival, apart from punishing and persuading a few unscrupulous businessmen to leave, most of the time they turned a blind eye and ignored them.
On special days like the Lantern Festival, most of the people setting up stalls are selling delicious food and lanterns.
There are also a small number of people who sell fireworks that meet the standards.
Of course, large fireworks cannot be set off at will at this time.
If you want to organize a large-scale fireworks event, you must report it to the General Affairs Department in advance.
Otherwise, it may clash with some traditional programs of the Hai Lantern Festival and cause unnecessary trouble.
For example, there was an incident before when someone was setting off fireworks while releasing sky lanterns, but the lanterns were all blown up by the fireworks before they could even fly up completely.
"Boss, give me a serving of Fuli Chicken and a serving of Butter Crab."
Looking at the dazzling array of goods and snacks, even Bai Luo couldn't help but touch the Mora bag in his pocket.
Unfortunately... Even though his monthly pocket money was enough to cover other people's lifetime expenses, he didn't actually carry much Mora with him.
Who has nothing better to do than carry around hundreds of millions of Mora
Well, only some yellow-haired idiot would enjoy doing this.
"Buzz..."
While Bai Luo was waiting for his food to be served, the mysterious wrist ornament on his wrist suddenly emitted a faint azure light.
This means that another person holding the mysterious wrist guard is nearby.
Originally, Bai Luo didn't take it seriously, because this level of light meant that the distance between the two of them was not very close.
But as the light grew brighter, Bai Luo gradually lost his composure.
"Boss, give me a pot of boiled water."
A burst of fragrance drifted into Bai Luo's nostrils along with the night breeze, and made his brain, which was a little drowsy due to the hawking sounds around him, much more clear.
And the beautiful figure whose hands were shining with the same azure light as Bai Luo's had already sat down opposite Bai Luo.
"You're still working so late. Thank you for your hard work."
Bai Luo didn't feel embarrassed at all and greeted Ye Lan who was sitting in front of him very enthusiastically.
He didn't find it strange that the other party appeared here.
Just like you can find Bai Luo wherever there is fun, you can definitely see Ye Lan wherever there is Bai Luo.
Okay, just kidding actually.
For a night market of this scale, even if the General Affairs Department acknowledges their existence, they will not completely ignore them.
In addition to the Qianyan Army who have been patrolling nearby, experts of Ye Lan's level will definitely not be absent.
Or perhaps it could be said that someone like her, who in the eyes of the public has no official background, is the most suitable person to manage this unofficial market.
At least when she takes action, she doesn't have to worry about ordinary people's attitude towards the authorities.
"Mr. Executive, you are too kind. How can ordinary people like me compare to you? I didn't expect that you, who are so busy, would still have time to hang out here."
After taking the teapot handed to him by the shopkeeper, Ye Lan casually reached into his pocket and took out a paper bag.
It was filled with the powder she had mixed in advance.
"Hey, is it really okay to poison me like this?"
Watching Ye Lan carefully pour the powder into the teapot, Bai Luo couldn't help but tease her.
Because no matter how you look at it, her behavior is like the villain in a movie or TV show who poisons drinks.
"What are you thinking about? This is not for you to drink."
After putting the lid on and shaking it well, Ye Lan rolled her eyes at him, poured herself a cup of tea, and an expression of enjoyment appeared on her face.
Bai Luo was stunned by this operation.
Oh boy, milk tea
"Are you just passing through? Or do you plan to stay for a while?"
Ye Lan filled the cup in front of her again and pushed it in front of Bai Luo, then asked.
She didn't mind at all that the cup was one she had used herself.
"It depends... Hiss! What's that smell?"
Even though Ye Lan had already drunk a full cup of tea in front of him, Bai Luo did not swallow the tea directly because of the good habit he had developed.
Thanks to the doctor, he could already easily taste the flavor of most of the drugs.
But because of his tasting behavior, he almost sprayed the liquid in his mouth onto Ye Lan's face opposite him.
After swallowing it in one gulp, the lingering aftertaste of the taste made Bai Luo almost curse.
It’s so damn spicy.
"Dried Jueyun peppers, add the stamens of Liuli Bag and grind them into powder. Evenly mix them with Yunlai Baihao. It can be said to be the best of the best and has a refreshing effect. Unfortunately, the environment is limited and I can't find Yunlai Baihao. I can only use boiled water instead."
Supporting his chin with his hand, Ye Lan had a sly smile on his face.
Since she often drinks like this, she has long been accustomed to the taste, so she didn't feel it was very spicy at all.
But that may not be the case for others.
She just pushed the tea to Bai Luo and said that she had no personal emotions, but no one would believe her.
