After Feng Yi left, Yuan Bao, unwilling to give up, leaned over the counter again. He glanced at Feng Yi's retreating back, making sure Feng Yi wasn't paying attention to this side, and quietly said to Diona.
"Diona, if you help me and Klee make drinks, I'll bring you a delicious roasted fish when Klee and I go fishing in the afternoon~"
"Roasted fish?"
Diona couldn't help but lick her lips and asked with anticipation.
"Yes~ Klee is very good at frying fish!"
Seeing that Diona seemed tempted, Klee quickly added.
"Then... then alright, but only this once! And you must keep it a secret, don't let Feng Yi know!"
Diona: Who could refuse a fragrant, tender, and delicious roasted fish?
Meanwhile, Feng Yi returned to Lisa's table and clinked glasses with everyone.
After a few rounds of drinks, Eula, who couldn't hold her liquor, was the first to give in. Her face flushed, she placed her hands on Feng Yi's shoulders and feigned a gagging motion.
"Eula, are you alright? Shall I take you to a private room upstairs to rest?"
Feng Yi gently patted Eula's smooth back, helping her to calm down, and asked with concern.
"I'm fine, I'm okay... *cough*~"
Although Eula said she was fine, her body told a different story.
"You should know your own limits. If you can't drink that much, don't force yourself... You all continue drinking, I'll take Eula upstairs to rest. We'll continue drinking when I get back!"
Feng Yi draped Eula's arm over his shoulder and helped her towards the private room on the second floor.
'Eula and Feng Yi, it seems...'
Lisa watched them walk away, a meaningful smile on her face.
In the resting room, Feng Yi helped Eula onto the bed, covered her with a quilt, and gave her some hangover soup.
"Feng Yi, don't go..."
Just as Feng Yi was about to leave, Eula suddenly grabbed his arm, opened her slightly hazy eyes, and looked at Feng Yi with deep affection.
"Okay~ I'll stay with you, I won't leave!"
Feng Yi's tone softened when speaking to the drunk Eula, and he complied with her request, sitting by the bed and preparing to stay until Eula fell asleep.
"Feng Yi, next... please don't speak, just feel my heart."
Saying this, Eula sat up, took Feng Yi's hand, and placed it on her chest, letting him feel her racing heartbeat.
Eula had deliberately gotten drunk this time, as alcohol gave her courage!
She knew very well that Feng Yi's image had occupied her mind, impossible to shake.
Since that was the case, Eula decided to seize this drinking opportunity to directly confess her feelings to Feng Yi.
This was in line with her usual decisive and straightforward nature; she never hesitated or let opportunities slip away.
If Feng Yi rejected her, Eula would use her drunkenness as an excuse...
Feng Yi: This heart... it's so white and large!
It felt soft and bouncy to the touch, making him unable to put it down!
"Eula, I've felt your heart... mmm..."
Before Feng Yi could finish speaking, Eula lunged into his arms, hugging him tightly, even using her tongue to silence his words.
Then, they both fell onto the bed, pulling the covers up with them.
*Knock knock~*
Just as Feng Yi was about to proceed to the final step, there was a knock on the resting room door.
"Feng Yi, there's a special guest at the tavern. Acting Grand Master Jean sent me to call you down!"
Noelle's voice came from outside the door.
Feng Yi glanced at the unclothed Eula beneath him and was furious at the guest who had appeared at such a crucial moment to interrupt him.
"What timing!"
Feng Yi muttered to himself.
"Hurry and go, I'll be waiting here for you! *Mwah*~"
Eula looked at the slightly annoyed Feng Yi and couldn't help but chuckle. She kissed Feng Yi's sturdy chest and then nudged him out of the covers.
Feng Yi picked up his scattered clothes from the floor, quickly put them on, and then opened the door. He wanted to see who the hell had dared to interrupt his good time at such a critical juncture!
"Feng Yi, why do you smell like Sister Eula?"
Noelle leaned closer to Feng Yi and asked, then questioned with confusion.
"It's probably because I helped Eula upstairs just now... By the way, Noelle, do you know who the special guest is?"
Feng Yi's eyelids twitched at the question. He quickly raised his arm and sniffed. There was indeed a milky scent!
But mixed with alcohol, it should be hard to distinguish. How did Noelle notice it?
This is truly astonishing!
Feng Yi quickly brushed it off and then changed the subject to divert her attention.
"It's Acting Grand Master Faruzan!"
Noelle nodded and said.
"Acting Grand Master Faruzan?"
Feng Yi was a little surprised because he had learned from Jean that Acting Grand Master Faruzan had taken most of the Knights of Favonius out for training, so why had she returned so suddenly today?
Had the training ended?
He was quite interested in this legendary figure of Mondstadt and quickened his pace downstairs.
Upon reaching the first floor of the tavern, Feng Yi saw a burly man sitting at Lisa's table from afar.
"Barbara, twenty more cups of apple cider, and five specialty drinks!"
The man, whose muscles were so defined they seemed to glisten, gestured to Barbara as he gulped down his drink.
"Please wait a moment, Grand Master. The specialty drinks are being prepared!"
Barbara stood by the counter, watching Diona shake the cocktail shaker with such speed that it was a blur, and replied helplessly to the Grand Master.
The Grand Master drank like he was drinking water. Noelle had been called away by her sister Barbara, and it was only her and Lumine, they were simply too busy.
"Barbara, go find an empty wine barrel!"
Feng Yi walked up to Barbara and smiled slightly.
Acting Grand Master Faruzan was like a beast. If Diona were to solely satisfy him with her specialty drinks, she would be exhausted to death.
Therefore, he had to use some other method!
"Feng Yi, here's the empty wine barrel. What do you need it for?"
Barbara retrieved the empty wine barrel as Feng Yi instructed, but she didn't understand what it could be used for.
"Heh heh, I have my own ways!"
Feng Yi took out the compressed and condensed liquid crystal from the dandelion wine that Kaeya had treated him to at "Angel's Share" last time.
He dropped the liquid crystal into the empty wine barrel and then added half a barrel of water.
Half a barrel of dandelion wine was thus made!
Feng Yi thought about it for a moment. To highlight the specialty of this tavern, he reluctantly added a quarter drop of the Water of Life to the half barrel of dandelion wine.
Feng Yi told Diona not to bother making the drinks for Acting Grand Master Faruzan, then hoisted the half barrel of dandelion wine and walked towards Faruzan.
"Feng Yi, allow me to introduce you, this is the Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius – Lord Faruzan!"
