MM Racing Chapter 204
Chapter 204
Liyue Harbor, late at night.
A ghostly figure sneaked into a luxurious residence.
The speed and body movements of this blue shadow were unpredictable, and ordinary people could not detect it at all.
But the owner of the mansion was obviously not an ordinary person, she was Ningguang.
"Come in." Ningguang said to the window.
The person outside climbed in through the window, flowing like clouds and water, without a sound.
When she walked into the light, she could see her appearance clearly.
Black hair, thick half-frame glasses on the bridge of her nose.
Judging from her clothes, she should be a scholar in charge of cultural relics research in Liyue, affiliated with Shenglu Hall.
Of course, these are just appearances.
Although Ningguang doesn't like to bring guards when traveling, how could her residence be without the protection of the elite Qianyan Army.
Can a scholar easily bypass such a line of defense?
Obviously impossible.
This scholar is just one of Ye Lan's disguises.
Ningguang asked Ye Lan to sit down and asked her how the investigation turned out.
Ye Lan's mission this time is still Mu Yang.
Although Mu Yang is an immortal and has contributed to Liyue Port, he does not seem to be a threat to Liyue Port.
But Ningguang still wants to find out why Mu Yang suddenly moved to Liyue Port.
As for her reason...
No reason is needed, because she is Ningguang.
Liyue Port should not have any secrets in Ningguang's eyes.
To this day, she has not been able to catch the handle of the guest official of the Wangsheng Hall and use it for her.
Now Mu Yang, who has defeated her many times, is coming again. Ningguang cannot accept this situation.
So even though she has a lot of good feelings for Mu Yang, she also needs to find out the purpose of Mu Yang coming to Liyue Port.
Ye Lan is the best person to carry out this mission.
She has already investigated Mu Yang last time.
Ye Lan sat down opposite Ningguang, playing her role as a scholar without overstepping the line.
She took out her detailed report of the past few days.
According to her observation, Mu Yang did not seem to plan to do anything.
His daily life is very simple.
After moving into the new house, he first asked workers to change the layout of the house and bought a few new furniture.
Then he lived a leisurely life.
Every day he went shopping, drank tea, told stories and listened to music, and raised flowers and walked birds.
When he had free time, he carved some wood carvings at home to make ornaments.
It was no different from the guest official of the Wangsheng Hall.
The two of them have been very close in the past few days, and all the expenses were paid by Mu Yang.
"It seems that they have known each other for a long time."
Ye Lan specifically talked a lot about the contact between Zhongli and Mu Yang.
Because she still remembered that the last person who made Ningguang so concerned and wanted to investigate thoroughly was Zhongli.
Ningguang was reading the information while listening to Ye Lan's report.
She already knew about the acquaintance between Zhongli and Mu Yang.
In his spare time, this guest official of the Wangsheng Hall would walk to Qiaoying Manor, sometimes to Yilongbu.
Then he would find a pavilion and pour tea and drink alone.
With such hobbies, it is normal to meet Mu Yang in Chenyu Valley.
After finishing Mu Yang's briefing, the work has come to an end.
Ye Lan took off her disguise, and the two of them changed to a mode of getting along with friends.
"Ningguang, are you a little too concerned about Mu Yang?"
Ningguang was still flipping through the information without raising her head, "Will you?"
"Will you not?"
It is understandable that Ye Lan would be curious about this matter.
Who is Ningguang?
Apart from the label of Tianquanxing, the highest power in Liyue, she is also the most successful businessman in Liyue.
A charming and wealthy woman.
Such a person is naturally pursued by others.
The nobleman from Yujingtai, the successful young businessman, and the captain who traveled around the seven countries are all willing to spend all their efforts to exchange for Ningguang's smile.
Legend has it that a big boss from Fontaine chatted with Ningguang for a few words and ordered the signing of a trade contract with Liyue Port.
Such a big deal, just to see Ningguang more.
However, Ningguang behaved politely to every suitor, maintaining an elegant and decent distance without losing imagination.
Ye Lan knew that Ningguang loved Mora and Qun Yu Pavilion the most, so what about the third one?
Her attitude towards Mu Yang was too obvious at present.
Some people spent a lot of money to see Ningguang.
Mu Yang could come and go in Ningguang's office at will and ask her to help with things.
Is it because Ningguang respects the immortals?
This statement would probably make people laugh.
For Ningguang, there have always been only pawns and chips.
It is said that during the days when the emperor was assassinated, the immortals came to ask for punishment.
Ningguang was respectful on the surface, but in fact she did not retreat at the negotiation table.
Mu Yang is really an exception...
However, only Ningguang knows what she thinks.
Ye Lan is just curious, just asking casually and teasing Ningguang.
Ningguang did not answer directly, but smiled and asked back, "I see you are quite interested in him, aren't you?"
Ye Lan did not deny that she enjoyed investigating Mu Yang.
She has been doing this job for a long time and has two lists in her hand, one of which is the [Special Attention List].
All those listed in it are talented people with skills, Beidou, Ying, and Grandma Ping are all on it.
This list is for those who have no ill will towards Liyue at present, but if they have any intention, they can make a big fuss in Liyue Port.
Those who threaten Liyue are recorded in the [Secret Intelligence List] with a higher confidentiality level.
The people in it are the real dangerous characters who have threatened Liyue.
For example, her old rival, the ninth seat of the Fatui executive [Rich Man] - Pantalone.
The owner of the Northland Bank, he is desperately squeezing the living space of Liyue's money houses and wants to control the economic lifeline of Liyue.
Mu Yang is still on the [Special Attention List].
Compared to the others on the list, the reason why Mu Yang can keep Ye Lan interested is:
When Ye Lan faces him, she always feels that her disguise is exposed.
But Mu Yang sees through it but does not point it out, as if he is playing a role-playing game with her.
She pretends to be a Mond fisherman, and Mu Yang talks to her about fishing.
She pretends to be a Xumi mercenary, and Mu Yang tells her how to take orders to save time and effort.
She pretends to be a Fontaine tabloid reporter, and Mu Yang even knows the interesting stories of the water goddess Funina.
But no matter what, the topic always stays in this pretend identity.
Ye Lan wants to know if Mu Yang can see through her, so she gets closer and closer...
Ningguang also teases her, who is more concerned.
"Do you want to bet on how long it will take for the real 'you' to contact him?"
"Never."
Ye Lan said that Mu Yang can contact Ye Lan, an employee of the General Affairs Department.
But she knows her limits because she can never get in touch with Ye Lan, who is engaged in espionage.
Ningguang held up three fingers, "Within three days."
However, the specific day does not depend on Ye Lan.
It depends on Mu Yang, to see when he wants to meet the real owner of [Yan Shang Tea House].
Ningguang has finished reading the investigation report.
Combining the news from her own spies, she analyzed the purpose of Mu Yang's coming to Liyue Port-
He wants to acquire a teahouse or restaurant.
Excluding the gray industry [Zhu Dian Fang] that he inspected tonight.
He will choose one of [San Wan Bu Guo Gang], [He Yu Tea House] and [Yan Shang Tea House].
Before leaving, Ye Lan turned back and said something.
"Then you'd better tell him not to play dice with others in [Yan Shang Tea House]."
