"Father, what do you think we should do?"

The player fell to his knees, holding Zhongli's thigh sadly, and sighed: "I only knew that the system would cause trouble for me, but I didn't expect it to cause such a big wave."

Zhong Li was shocked by the player's first sentence, and he didn't even dodge the player's leg-hugging attack for a moment. Now that he was hugged, he couldn't move for fear of hurting the player.

"...It doesn't have to be like this."

He lowered his head, and slowly persuaded the player with a rock-like voice: "It's my contract to protect you, you don't have to do such an inappropriate gift."

inappropriate.

The player suddenly realized that his posture was indeed somewhat indecent.

Well, be bold and leave some out.

At this moment, he can be said to be very indecent!If you change your pants, you have to be pulled off by him!I don't know if Dijun's pants are stuck with super glue, and they are as immovable as a mountain!

Well, rock solid, that's about it.

Standing up with some pity, the player coughed lightly, pretending to be serious and said: "That's it, Dad, do you know about the Holy Grail War?"

Zhong Li closed his eyes, he roughly guessed that the player did it on purpose, since that's the case, why not...

"Well, is it the kind of cup that holds water?"

The player shook his head: "No, it's the Holy Grail, do you know the Holy Grail? It's the kind of legendary, very different, not ordinary cup."

Zhong Li frowned, showing a look of distaste: "Aquatic products?"

"I said it's not an ordinary cup!" The player opened his hand and gestured exaggeratedly, "It's just a concept, the kind that can fulfill wishes."

"Why do you want to make a wish on the cup?"

The player was a little crazy: "I said it's not an ordinary cup! Daddy, you don't know, right? Didn't you say that you will be given knowledge when summoned... Wait, dad, you know it? You kidding me What about?"

"Ah."

In a daze, the player seemed to hear a chuckle, but when he looked up again, Zhongli's face was still faint, as if the previous smile was just an illusion of the player.

No, not an illusion.

"Father, did you laugh just now?"

The player approached Zhongli and looked at him curiously: "What are you laughing at?"

Zhongli's gaze fell on the player, and the feeling of being watched by the golden eyes made the player tremble uncontrollably, and then he heard Zhongli's voice.

"I remember happy things."

Player: ...I have an ominous premonition.

"What are you happy about?"

Zhong Li glanced at him, and finally did not continue this dangerous topic, but instead said: "You said that you will provide food and accommodation for seven days?"

"Gah?" The bewildered player yelled when he was stunned by the jump of the topic.

But, this is indeed the player's summoning word, and he did not lie, so he nodded: "That's right, I joined Totsuki Academy before, and when I came back to Fuyuki, I said it was to exchange cooking skills, but the academy There are still learning tasks arranged.”

"There is a Chinese restaurant in Fuyuki. The school has already contacted it. I will go there for an internship in the future. The wages will be paid there. I promise to support you!"

"A contract for an internship..." Zhongli mused, "Since that's the case, this time wandering around the world must be smoother."

Player: ?

"No, Dad, we are here to fight the Holy Grail War. You don't know about the Holy Grail, but you always understand about wars, right? It's not the kind that you can turn around casually."

Zhongli sighed: "As a father, how can I go to the battlefield in person?"

Player: ...

"I heard that in the country you were born in, respecting the elderly and filial piety are traditional virtues. Since you call me father and honor your parents as your duty, how can you fight and kill them?"

The player knelt down: "Dijun, I was wrong."

"What's the meaning of this? I'm the guest of the Pastoral Hall, you can call me Mr.

So I was waiting here...

Seeing Zhongli's uncooperative expression, the player knew that he could no longer take advantage of it and call him father, otherwise he would definitely not be willing to fight the Holy Grail War with him.

So the player stood up, got rid of that unprofessional look, and said solemnly: "Sir, it's late at night, and it's not a good place to rest in the park, why don't we find a place to live, my money is still enough for you Five star luxury hotel!"

Zhong Li nodded slightly: "That's very good."

Seeing that Zhongli has cooperated, the player put his nose on his face and walked out of the park with Zhongli, while whispering: "Sir, do you know about the Holy Grail War?"

Zhongli nodded: "When I came, this world gave me relevant information."

Player: Then you still pretend not to understand me? ?

The player is angry, but the player dares not speak out.

He could only change the subject: "Then do you have any wish for the Holy Grail? Since we want to fight, we must win, right?"

Zhong Li shook his head: "If you put your wish on nothing, you will get nothing."

"But since you and I have a contract, I will help you."

The player was very moved immediately, and then touched his head: "Actually, I have nothing to achieve. The main thing is that I also know that there is a problem with the Holy Grail here, not to mention that I want to go home, and I am working hard to go home now. I don't need it." Grail to help."

The player looks into the distance. In the dark night, the dark road in the park is illuminated by lights, just like the player's way home, lit up by beautiful wishes.

"As Mr. said, the concept of placing one's wishes on the Holy Grail is just a vain fantasy. I prefer to do it down-to-earth than this kind of thing that claims to be able to fulfill my wishes."

"Perhaps in this way, there is a real feeling."

"It's a wonderful process to realize one's wishes little by little."

Listening to the player's words, Zhong Li slightly bent his mouth.

Everyone in Tivat has not actually had direct contact with the players, and more is looking at the players through distraction, like a flower in a mirror.

But why do you still trust so much and are willing to form a fate of meeting with players again?

Perhaps, knowing that the player chose such a path, he couldn't help but want to help him.

How similar they are.

There are countless shortcuts on the road to realizing your wishes.

If the player wants to make others wish to go home, he can be a villain, so naturally countless people will pray for him to go.

But the player did not do this, he chose the most difficult path.

Doing good deeds is never easy.

This road is so difficult that everyone wants to see where the player can go, how far the player can persist, and...they want to help the player persist.

It's like looking at another self, gradually blossoming and bearing fruit.

"It's great that you can do this."

Zhongli's voice drifted lightly into the night, just a faint appreciation, but it can inspire infinite courage and keep moving towards one's ideal.

Perhaps this is why everyone in Liyue loves Dijun so much.

At the end of the encouragement, Zhong Li added another sentence, which was a warning.

"Although you and I have no wishes, others may not. You have to be careful."

--

The player doesn't have a lot of money. If the system doesn't allow him to travel directly across the world, he must be very rich after working for ten years, but now he can't guarantee the high consumption of the emperor.

Therefore, players still have to work hard.

But it's bitter haha, but it's actually okay.

In the early morning of the next day after Zhongli was summoned, the player arrived at the Chinese restaurant. The owner of the Chinese restaurant was a kind and fat man. After learning about the player's situation, he quickly explained the work to her.

As a newcomer, it is impossible for the player to come up to be the chef, but even if it is a help, the salary given is not bad, so the player has nothing to fight for.

Salted fish is cool for a while, and salted fish is always cool.

This is the truth.

In addition, Fuyuki is not safe recently, so this restaurant will not be open very late, and players can get off work very early, which makes Xianyu players very satisfied.

Of course, the most satisfying thing for players is this restaurant, which has staff prices.

ah!Staff price!What a wonderful thing!He wants Zhongli to eat every day!Eat enough for seven days!This saves a ton of money!

With such joy, during lunch at noon, the player happily brought Zhongli to the Chinese restaurant where he worked. To show his importance, he even cooked the dishes by himself, which made the employee's price more reasonable.

As a result, in the next second, the boss's words made the player dumbfounded.

"Who is this?"

Although it was doubtful, the boss's expression was not very good. The player felt something was wrong and tried hard to hide Zhongli behind him, but Xiangling's small body couldn't stop the tall Zhongli at all.

"This is me...uncle." Trying to swallow the word father, the player expressed with his eyes that he needed a reasonable explanation, but fortunately Zhongli didn't care about it.

The boss frowned, and said with some doubts: "Look at this thick eyebrow and big eyes, he doesn't look like a bad person, why does he just eat the overlord's meal..."

The boss's voice was not loud, but the two people present had excellent hearing, so they naturally heard the boss's almost muttering words.

"Overlord meal!? How can he have that time?"

The player was shocked. Although it was indeed something Zhongli could do, he was just summoned!

Zhong Li glanced at the player, as if expressing with his eyes that he would not eat the overlord's meal, but the player turned his back to him and did not receive the signal from his eyes.

But what the boss said made the two of them even more confused: "Oh, your uncle is called Zhongli, right?"

The player has never told the boss that his uncle's name is Zhong Li, so where did the boss get this name from?

Can't someone eat the overlord's meal and report their own name, right?

No, no, no?

"It's like this. Yesterday a man brought a female student to our store to eat a lot of food. Later, it seemed that he didn't bring any money. The man said that he would return it in two days. He also said that his name was Zhong Li."

Player: ... Really?But this person is definitely not Zhongli!Didn't call yesterday!

But the player is not stupid, he immediately said: "I remember that there is no credit system in our store? Why don't you stop him?"

"Of course not!" the boss complained. "Who knew he ran away after he finished speaking, and he ran so fast. I chased him for three alleys! He was still chased and lost!"

The boss looked at Zhongli, and said suspiciously: "You don't mean to deceive female students, right? Xiangling, it's not easy for you to work alone, don't be deceived by such a person... How can there be such a young uncle?" ..."

The player twitched his mouth: "He is my uncle... I was not cheated, so I will pay back what I owed earlier, how much is it?"

The boss looked at the players and reported the number.

After paying back the money and leaving the Chinese restaurant, the penniless player held Zhongli's hand, with tears in his eyes: "Who is it! Who is cheating me! I will kill him!"
