Chapter 373

Hu Tao was confused.

At this time, Hu Tao was eating breakfast in front of a small stall.

But while she was eating, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Zhongli being held by a woman's arm.

Seeing this scene, Hu Tao almost spit out her food directly.

Good grief!!!

Hu Tao was shocked.

She really didn't expect Zhongli to be in a relationship?

Looking at the woman she'd never seen before, Hu Tao was stunned.

Without hesitation, Hu Tao directly took out her phone and began to secretly take pictures.

Then, she sent a message directly to Takumi.

Hu Tao:

[Shocked!! This guy Zhongli is actually in a relationship?]

[Takumi, do you know that woman?]

[Who is she?]

Not only that, she asked all over the group.

Meanwhile, Zhongli, who was out shopping, didn't know any of this.

He was simply going to have breakfast with her.

Then, he planned to take her to Takumi.

After all, she had just told him that she was going to find Takumi.

She wanted him to do something for her.

By the way, get her some ID or something.

Zhongli had no objections to this.

But first, breakfast.

He also had no issue with Guizhong taking his arm.

However, what Zhongli didn't know was that they had been photographed.

Takumi saw what Hu Tao had sent and was immediately amazed.

"Good grief, this is really something."

"Rare!"

"Sure enough, the emperor still loves Guizhong."

Seeing how close they were to each other, Takumi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Then, he also sent a message back to Hu Tao.

Takumi:

[That's Zhongli's fiancée!]

[Didn't you know?]

Hu Tao:

[o(())0]

[Fiancée?]

[Are you kidding me?]

[Zhongli has a fiancée?]

[Good grief, I've never heard of it in my life!]

[Is he an old man dating a young girl?]

[He looks like he's 18-19 years old.]

Hu Tao was really surprised at this moment.

Zhongli, an old man dating a young woman?

No way!

Although she didn't know how old Zhongli was, she knew he had to be ancient.

When she was a child, Zhongli had already been in the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor.

After so many years, she had grown up, but Zhongli hadn't changed at all.

So, in Hu Tao's mind, Zhongli must be very old.

He was just well-maintained.

In her heart, Zhongli was like an uncle.

And now, Uncle Zhongli actually found a young woman?

Hetui! An old man dating a young woman!

Takumi saw the message from Hu Tao and couldn't help but laugh.

What was this girl thinking?

But Hu Tao didn't know Zhongli's true identity, so there was nothing more to say.

Takumi didn't continue the conversation.

He didn't want to interfere too much in Zhongli's affairs.

Putting away his phone, Takumi went back to work.

Meanwhile, Hu Tao uploaded the photos to Liyue's group chat.

The group immediately exploded.

Xiangling:

[??]

Ganyu:

[??]

Uncle Tian:

[??]

Yelan:

[Good grief!!]

There was no doubt that these people knew Zhongli's identity.

Seeing the photos Hu Tao had posted, they were stunned.

Ningguang couldn't believe it. The emperor actually had a girlfriend?

Good grief, really good grief!!

Ganyu was also confused. She couldn't believe the woman in the photo.

That was… Guizhong?

When Ganyu was a child, she had met Guizhong.

Hadn't she died during the Demon God War?

But now, she was alive and well.

But soon, Ganyu also understood.

Right!!

This had to be Takumi's doing.

Keqing also saw the messages in the group.

She immediately privately messaged Ningguang.

She explained Guizhong's identity.

When Ningguang learned of Guizhong's identity, she was also shocked.

"The Demon God of Dust..."

Ningguang was in disbelief.

Last night…

Ningguang suddenly remembered.

Last night, she had felt an inexplicable throbbing.

Could it have been her?

She had read the historical records and knew that many of Liyue's current residents were actually descendants of Guizhong's people.

She also knew exactly how Liyue Harbor was built.

In fact, Ningguang herself had the blood of Guizhong's people.

Thinking of this, she understood.

That explained everything.

No wonder Zhongli was being held by someone.

Some unofficial records had even stated that the Demon God of Dust had feelings for Morax.

At the time, she thought it was just a rumor, but now it seemed to be true.

"Guizhong."

"Zhongli."

"I understand now."

Thinking of this, Ningguang couldn't help but smile.

Maybe this was a good thing.

Yes, Rex Lapis should have a companion.

Now that he had retired,

There should be someone by his side.

Thinking of this, Ningguang suddenly said:

"Come in."

Baixiao, her assistant, immediately walked in.

"Lady Ningguang!"

Seeing Baixiao, Ningguang calmly said:

"Issue an order."

"Transfer 200 million Mora to Mr. Zhongli's account."

"Write in the note: Congratulations, Mr. Zhongli."

Yes, just send money as a congratulatory gift.

After all, Zhongli didn't have any money, right?

Wait a moment, she would ask Takumi to arrange a house for Zhongli as a wedding gift.

It was a happy decision.

When Baixiao heard Ningguang's order, she was stunned.

Ah, this?

What was happening?

Why such a sudden arrangement?

For a moment, Baixiao was full of doubts.

But she didn't ask questions.

As a qualified assistant,

She knew to follow orders without asking too much.

"I'll arrange it now."

With that, Baixiao left to carry out the task.

She stepped outside, took out her phone, and contacted Liyue Harbor's bank.

She instructed them to transfer the money directly to Zhongli's account.

Meanwhile, Zhongli had just finished breakfast with Guizhong.

However, after breakfast, Zhongli felt awkward.

Because, once again, he had no money!!

He had forgotten.

The waiter at the side recognized Zhongli.

"Mr. Zhongli, where should we send the bill?"

"To the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor?"

Just as Zhongli was about to respond,

His phone vibrated.

Taking it out, he saw a message.

Hmm… 200 million Mora.

And the note?

"Congratulations, Mr. Zhongli."

Seeing this, Zhongli fell silent.

Ningguang?

Congratulations?

He glanced at Guizhong.

Then, he instantly understood.

"Wait here a moment."

"I'll be right back."

"Guizhong, wait for me here."

Zhongli got up immediately and walked off.

About ten minutes later, he returned.

Now, Zhongli was full of confidence.

With money in his pocket, he had nothing to fear.

"I'll pay the bill!"

After paying, Zhongli left with Guizhong.

Heading toward the General Affairs Department.
