Recalling Barbara's visit yesterday afternoon and the brief heart-to-heart conversation between the two, Qin suddenly understood.

Did it turn out that the child came to talk to her after he did this?

This is really...

"Miss, there is one more thing."

The manor's servant stood by the desk, eyes blank, completely ignoring Qin's expression that did not suit her status, standing there like an emotionless robot.

Her experience working at Gunnhild's house made her understand that there are some things you don't need to know, and even if you do know, you have to pretend not to know.

The servant told Qin the details about Bai Qiyun's fight, and told Qin all the results of the duel between him and his wife last night.

"oh?"

Hearing this, the decadence on Qin's body suddenly disappeared, and a sharp flash of light flashed in his clear eyes.

She could be gentle when it came to the people of Mondstadt, but when it came to personal martial arts, she never felt that she would lose to anyone, not even the Knight of the North Wind.

It is precisely because of this that she was able to shoulder the lion's tooth knight and assume the responsibility of the guardian of the south wind at a young age.

"Mother is not injured, right?"

"No, Mr. Bai is very measured in his actions."

Hearing that her mother was not injured, Qin nodded slightly, and the slight fierceness in her eyes gradually dissipated.

But when she thought about Barbara, Qin's eyes became dangerous again.

"Reply to mother and say that I agreed. As for the bet on winning or losing... I will discuss it with Mr. Bai personally at that time."

"yes."

Looking at the servant's leaving figure, Qin took out the sword beside her and kept wiping it in the sunlight.

The news spread quickly. Bai Qiyun was still sleeping at Lisa's home when someone from the Gunnhild family came to visit.

Faced with the fact that his residence was exposed, Bai Qiyun seemed very calm.

Yesterday's conversation made him know that his whereabouts in Mondstadt City had no privacy in Frederica's eyes.

Not to mention that he lives in Lisa's house now, I'm afraid the other party should also know about his residence in the Lawrence family's territory.

It's just that we are both nobles, so it's not easy to just barge in without saying hello.

"okay, I get it."

Bai Qiyun walked back to the house with an exquisite invitation, and there was no trace of Lisa in the house.

She had no excuse for a day off today, so she had no choice but to go to the library to work.

But in his place was a new guest.

"Hey, Barbara, look at this."

Bai Qiyun raised the invitation in his hand to the girl sitting on the sofa in the living room, and then threw it away.

After catching it, Barbara opened it and glanced at it. The content was very simple. It talked about the time, place and other details of the duel between Bai Qiyun and Qin.

But it was these simple words that made Barbara look up at the boy strangely.

This guy... really plans to pick a fight with onee-sama.

And according to what he said, he fought against Mother last night and even won.

Although Barbara did not deliberately inquire about Frederica, as the hostess of the Gunnhild family, her experiences inevitably appeared in front of her.

I heard that Frederica was also the leader among the younger generation of knights back then, and she would definitely rank among the top ten, or even the top five, among her peers.

Being able to defeat such a person, that man doesn't look weak at all.

However, there is still a huge gap between the top ten and the first place. Can this guy do it?

Barbara's eyes flashed with suspicion, she pinched the invitation in her hand and asked.

"Are you sure you can beat my sister? She is very powerful."

In the five or six years before Qin took office as the deputy leader of the Knights, her heroic deeds were spread throughout Mondstadt.

The headlines in the daily newspapers every day are basically filled with news about her battles, and they are often different.

For example, which Qiuqiu tribe was wiped out when I went out today, where did I go to control the disorder of the earth's veins, how many ruins guards were shot down...etc.

Under such influence, almost all Mondstadt people have a very deep understanding of Qin's bravery.

It can be said that in Mondstadt, Qin is the so-called ‘proud girl of heaven’.

"Whether you win or not, you have to wait until you play to know."

Bai Qiyun hummed and brought two cups of coffee to Barbara.

Because Lisa likes to drink coffee, she has these things at home. Fortunately, people in Mondstadt also like to drink coffee, so it is not a problem to use it to entertain guests.

Looking at Bai Qiyun's confident look, Barbara held the coffee in her hand with doubts in her eyes.

Although they got along for a short time, the two have already formed some kind of small alliance.

Barbara's request was very simple, that is, she wanted Qin to make decisions based on her own ideas, rather than based on the family's interests.

As for Bai Qiyun, it's even simpler. There's no harm in him becoming familiar with Barbara.

But now it seems that this duel is coming quickly, and their small group will not last long. It is estimated that they will disband after the outcome of the duel.

"The day after tomorrow, we will have a showdown at the Gunnhild family's manor. You really have the demeanor of a knight, so decisive."

Bai Qiyun took the invitation back and glanced at it again. The simple and capable words revealed a bit of heroism. Perhaps this is also a spirit in the bones of the Gunnhild family.

"So why did you choose to compete in the manor?"

"Maybe it's because Qin and I will have an impact in front of outsiders no matter who loses or wins. It should be the lady's decision... But I think it's unnecessary. The garden behind the Knights' headquarters is very suitable. I

Qin and I are not people who care about everything."

A decision as trivial as choosing a venue can only be made by someone who considers the impact of the public's viewing experience, and Frederica happens to be such a person.

After all, in the eyes of outsiders, Qin represents the Gunnhild family. It would be great fun if she lost, especially if she lost to a foreigner.

This kind of thing must not be made public.

"Yes...yes."

When she heard that her mother had made the decision, Barbara immediately hesitated and did not dare to express any opinions.

Seeing that she looked nervous when talking about Frederica in private, Bai Qiyun couldn't help but pat her little head to let her relax.

"But after all, your mother has asked for it, so let's go there... By the way, do you want to go there then?"

"Eh? Me?"

It seemed that Barbara had not thought about this problem, and confusion flashed in Barbara's blue-gray eyes for a moment.

She didn't know if she should go. If it was her sister's matter, logically she should go and have a look, but the location was at the Gunnhild family's manor...
