Genshin, No sad stories

After understanding the situation, Kaeya didn't dwell on it any longer. 

He chatted with Jiang Chen for a while and then left. 

He could just ask Diluc about this matter. 

If Diluc didn't have any issues with it, then it must be true. 

Jiang Chen had only gone outside the city to find Barbatos. 

He should inform Acting Grand Master Jean about this. 

Watching Kaeya leave, Jiang Chen's lips curled into a faint smile. 

He didn't think too much about it. 

This guy loved to investigate everything. 

Truly dedicated to his job. 

Shaking his head, Jiang Chen stopped overthinking. 

Kaeya, on the other hand, specifically went to the Angel's Share to ask about the matter. 

After confirming it, he didn't think much more about it. 

Diluc wasn't exactly welcoming to him, so he left the place. 

He'd come back later to mooch some drinks. 

For now, he needed to inform Acting Grand Master Jean about the reappearance of the Anemo Archon. 

...

"Your Highness, we've investigated the matter." 

"It was done by your blood relative and another person from another world." 

"They defeated Stormterror, and then Barbatos appeared and restored Stormterror." 

Meanwhile, deep within the Abyss, Aether was listening to a report from one of his Abyss Mages. 

The Stormterror incident had naturally been their doing. 

But who would have thought? 

Before they could even start, Stormterror had already been restored? 

Now, it was impossible to manipulate Stormterror anymore. 

Hearing this, Aether fell silent. 

"Lumine... is it?" 

When he mentioned this name, a hint of softness flashed in his eyes. 

At the same time, he was also puzzled. 

Lumine had met another person from another world? 

And it was a guy? 

Had his little sister finally found someone? 

Was he about to become an uncle? 

Suddenly, Aether thought of these things. 

But actually, it didn't seem too bad? 

He knew his little sister's personality better than anyone. 

Right now, her memories probably hadn't fully returned. 

Her personality was still relatively gentle. 

But as her memories gradually returned, her personality would likely become more and more... problematic. 

Many older brothers found their younger sisters difficult to handle. 

Aether wasn't exactly a siscon either. 

After being together for so many years, what was there to obsess over? 

In fact, he almost wished his little sister would find a man to torment. 

Every time he thought about how she used to interfere with his romantic pursuits in other worlds, he gritted his teeth in frustration. 

"Go, find out more about that guy." 

"Get me all the information about him." 

"Don't alert them." 

Aether quickly made a decision. He wanted to see which brave soul had gotten so close to his sister. 

Would he really become a brother-in-law in the future? 

For now, he just needed to figure things out. 

The Abyss Mage, hearing the Prince's order, quickly nodded. 

"Yes, Your Highness!" 

After saying this, it disappeared on the spot. 

Leaving Aether alone to quietly contemplate life. 

"Lumine..." 

"We will eventually reunite." 

"But not now." 

Thinking of all the past moments with Lumine, Aether quickly made up his mind. 

No matter what, there were some things he had to do! 

Even if Lumine came, she wouldn't be able to stop him. 

...

Meanwhile, Lumine was unaware of her brother's situation. 

By now, she had already discussed matters with Acting Grand Master Jean. 

Jean would use the Knights of Favonius' channels to help Lumine post missing person notices and bounties. 

The reward was 10 million Mora. 

She refused to believe that even this wouldn't help her find her brother. 

If it didn't work, she'd just stop looking. 

She'd let her brother come find her instead. 

Then she'd go find Jiang Chen and settle down somewhere. 

"Lumine, 10 million?" 

"Are you really going to offer 10 million?" 

Paimon was utterly shocked. 

How much delicious food could 10 million Mora buy? 

And now Lumine was using 10 million to search for her brother? 

This... 

The money hadn't even warmed up in their hands yet. 

"Yes!" 

"Anyway, we have money now." 

"If we get more money in the future, we can increase the reward." 

"It's fine for now." 

Lumine had made up her mind. 

If she really couldn't find him, then her brother must be deliberately avoiding her. 

Then why bother searching? 

Seeing Lumine's serious expression, Paimon decided not to say anything more. 

Alright, since Lumine had decided, 

She would just have to follow Lumine's lead. 

With so much money, how much delicious food could they buy? 

Wahhh! 

Fortunately, Lumine still had a lot of money left. 

Enough to feed Paimon for a long time. 

After finishing this matter, Lumine finally felt relieved. 

Immediately, she took Paimon out to have some fun. 

They would be leaving tomorrow. 

Might as well enjoy themselves today. 

Meanwhile, Jiang Chen had already returned to the hotel. 

He went straight to Venti's room. 

The guy was still sound asleep, with no signs of waking up anytime soon. 

Looking at his flushed face and the blissful expression as he dreamed, Jiang Chen's lips curled into a smile. 

This guy really had no worries at all. 

If Jiang Chen sold him to the Fatui, he probably wouldn't even know who did it, right? 

Tsk tsk!! 

I wonder how much I could get if I sold Venti? 

How much would the Fatui pay for him? 

Right now, they were searching the world for the Anemo Archon. 

Looking at Venti, Jiang Chen chuckled and then placed a few more bottles of wine in the room. 

From now on, they could call him the Wine Sage. 

The one who fulfilled Venti's wishes. 

He was such a good person. 

These bottles of wine would keep Venti drunk for a while. 

Let's just hope the Fatui don't get too frustrated when they can't find the Anemo Archon. 

Suddenly thinking of this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but laugh. 

After finishing this, Jiang Chen left the room. 

On the way out, he even extended Venti's room reservation for a week. 

Mm, for the next little while, Venti could stay here. 

Best case scenario, he'd wake up, drink, and then pass out again. 

By the time he fully woke up, he'd probably have forgotten everything. 

He might not even realize his wine had been dug up until he went to check. 

This was perfect. 

By evening, Lumine called Jiang Chen down to have dinner together. 

During the meal, Lumine shared an idea she had just thought of. 

"What if we bring some goods to Liyue to sell?" 

"Because of the dragon crisis, many goods from Mondstadt haven't been transported over." 

"I heard the prices there are really high!!" 

"We could take advantage of this opportunity to bring some things over to sell, right?" 

Lumine was incredibly excited. 

She had heard this from someone else. 

And she thought it was a great idea. 

After all, both she and Jiang Chen had storage equipment. 

And it was quite spacious too. 

They could transport a lot of goods at once. 

Hearing this, Jiang Chen's face darkened. 

"Why bother with such small profits?" 

"Instead of wasting time on that, why not just rob the Fatui?" 

Jiang Chen was joking, of course. Did Lumine really expect him to transport goods to sell? 

Absolutely not. 

Even with storage equipment, it wasn't worth the effort. 

Robbing the Fatui would be much faster. 

After all, the Fatui were loaded. 

Wouldn't robbing them be quicker than earning money the hard way? 

Besides, there was a certain rich guy in Liyue. 

Wouldn't it be better to just scam him instead? 

Why bother with such small profits? 

They'd have to go buy the goods themselves and take on the risk. What if the prices in Liyue weren't as high as expected? 

Wouldn't they end up stuck with the goods? 

After all, they had no idea what the situation in Liyue was like.
