CHAPTER 29

3RD POV

“ Mr Zhongli aren’t you worried that Diluc and Kaeya are in Liyue to visit Yujing ? “ Childe asked while his partner stood beside him picking glaze lilies

“ As jealous as i am i believe this is karma for having relations with Havria and Guizhong “ Zhongli sighed shaking his head laughing sadly as he fiddled with the few lilies he had in his hands

“ Y-you didn’t get together with one of them did you ?! “ Childe gaped like a fish out of water as he dropped the fresh flowers onto the grass

“ How would you tell Yujing ?! “

“ Oh my Archon she’s going to cry ! “

“  Zhongli how could you do this ?! “

“ wait you didn’t let me finish-“

“ You couldn’t wait six thousand five hundred years could you now ? How pathetic “ Tartagila ranted at how his partner would absolutely shatter the heart of his best friend as he picked up the fallen flowers

“ We were just good friends-I told you i never fall for people weaker than myself , I promised my brother have you forgotten ? “  The retired geo archon defended exasperatedly trying to calm the orange head down while gathering the blue flowers from the harbinger’s hands

“ So you think Yujing is stronger than you ? “ He asked raising an eyebrow as he stopped in his tracks to interrogate Zhongli

“ Well I have never fought her but if she bested even the tianquan at a duel i suppose she is a formidable  foe to anyone “ The amber eyed male smiled to himself as he thought of the time he watched his lover fight the ruler of Liyue , not for power but for a far more ridiculous reason

They literally fought over who pays for dinner 

And to everyone’s surprise , Yujing won

Even her good friend and training partner Keqing was impressed and rushed to praise her

She however brushed it off as a stroke of luck and how ningguang went easy on her

She was way to humble for even Childe to bear

“ You have to tell me where you learned all those moves from ! “ Keqing begged her violet eyed friend who agreed to teach what later became the yuheng’s signature move , stellar restoration

“ You should let her meet Mr Phantom ! See if he approves of her because I think he’ll love her “ Childe joked as they resumed their journey to the electro monument

“ Despite being six thousand five hundred years old...Yujing was my first love , yes i had crushes every few centuries but I had never wanted to stay with someone forever until i met-“

“ You know that’s not possible “ Childe sighed dejectedly , looking at the setting sun upon the horizon

Eventually Zhongli would outlive himself and his best friend

-Meanwhile in Liyue-

“Xiangling agreed to come over later to cook dinner before her shift”

“ Did she suspect anything ? “

“She said she didn’t want me to setp the harbour on fire by cooking dinner “

“Fair enough “

“Hmph”

“ So let’s go over this again...we leave for mondstadt first , I meet the knights at the electro hypostasis monument then proceed to participate in the duel
while you follow behind , staying hidden until you think it is absolutely necessary to intervene “ Diluc instructed as he polished his ‘ Darknight hero ‘ mask
