Genshin Impact: I am an ordinary executive

Chapter 157 The Favored and Ordinary People

"Oh? Do you all know each other? That's such a coincidence!

These two must be the Manyo brothers and Yutoto-kun, right? I, Zheping, have long wanted to catch a glimpse of the two of them, but since they are active on the front lines, there has never been a chance.

Now that I see the two of them, they are indeed as elegant as the legend. "

Zheping has always liked to make friends with people with lofty ideals in the resistance army, like Ying, like Zuo Xi, like Wanyo and his close friends.

He admired these powerful people very much and envied them for having enough strength to do things that he could never do.

Although you can always feel your own powerlessness when you are with them, this is your own problem, not theirs.

How can I blame my own narrow-mindedness on those people who shine brightly?

If...if I could have the same strength as them...

Every time he thinks about this, Zheping's eyes will become much darker. He also wanted to rely on his own strength to shine in the resistance, but for his mediocre qualifications, that was so out of reach.

Everyone present is good at noticing the subtleties, and everyone was keenly aware of Zheping's depressed mood at that moment.

But being able to perceive and being able to understand are two different things. It is difficult for them to understand Zheping's thoughts because of their self-improvement.

What's more, Zheping's performance was not obvious, and they didn't consider that direction at all.

Even though everyone present sometimes feels resentful for their lack of strength, there is a fundamental difference between that and Zheping's current situation.

The thoughts of self-improving people and ordinary people have never been the same.

Zuo Xi looked at everyone's expressions and sighed silently in his heart.

Sure enough, only mortals can empathize with mortals. The little thoughts of mortals are difficult to understand in the eyes of those who are favored, right?

They cannot detect Zheping's distress, and even if they know it, they cannot understand Zheping's desire to make a name for himself.

This is the gap between favored people and ordinary people. Everything a righteous person does is noble, but how can a mortal's motives remain noble all the time?

But who can say this is wrong? This is just human nature.

What's wrong with craving power? People who long for power are troubled and confused by power. What's wrong with that?

"This friend is really overrated. This friend and I are just doing trivial tasks on the front line. In essence, there is no difference between us and our brothers at the rear.

Speaking of which, what should I call my friend? "

Zheping is so enthusiastic, Man'ye and Yutoto-kun are not indifferent people, and they will naturally deal with it seriously.

His answer was quite appropriate, neither arrogant nor overly humble, but such an answer was undoubtedly a bit harsh for a person who aspired to make meritorious service on the front line.

Self-effrontation is a quality that only capable people possess. Among mediocre people, it is called inferiority complex.

"Haha... My name is Zheping. In my opinion, being able to go to the front line is already very impressive. Brother Wanyu, please don't be too humble.

By the way, travelers, let me introduce to you, Mr. Zuo Xi is really awesome! "

Zheping scratched his head, laughed a few times, brushed off the topic, and then introduced Zuo Xi to Ying.

Ying turned her head to look at Zuo Xi, with a hint of questioning in her eyes.

She wasn't sure whether she should reveal that they knew each other here, should she pretend to be meeting for the first time, or admit it openly?

Zuo Xi responded to her eyes and nodded slightly to her, indicating that there was no need to hide anything.

Yingye nodded slightly to express receipt, and then admitted that she and Zuo Xi were old acquaintances.

"No need Zheping, Zuo Xi is my best friend. Although we haven't known each other for a long time, he and I can be said to be sworn friends."

Ying didn't ask Zuo Xi with her eyes whether the question about his identity needed to be kept secret. She knew the answer to such a question without asking.

The identity of the Executive Officer of the Fools is not a very good name no matter where he is. Exposing it will probably affect the other party's plan.

"Yes, yes, our relationship with Zuo Xi is really good!"

More than just good, in Paimeng's eyes, Zuo Xi was simply the bread and butter of his parents.

"This, that's it. As expected of a traveler, I know so many people!"

Zheping began to be surprised by the traveler's connections. He always felt that the traveler always knew some amazing people.

"Huh? It turns out that the traveler also knows Mr. Gay. What a coincidence. I didn't expect that several people who seemed to be unrelated to each other actually knew each other!

Maybe this is the fate that the eldest sister mentioned? This kind of fate is not common, why not make an appointment to have a few drinks? "

Friend-kun was very happy. He was only a little surprised at first and then quickly started to drink.

There was nothing I could do about it. After being homeless for so long and then staying on the boat all the time, drinking had already become a normal thing.

"Drink? Haha... I want to drink ten!

However, let’s discuss this matter later. You probably didn’t come to Haiqi Island just for fun, right? How about finishing the business first? "

When it comes to drinking, Zuo Xi has never been afraid of anyone other than Zhi Dong. The highest quality wine out there is not half as good as fire and water.

However, Zuo Xi still understands that drinking can't ruin things.

Although he was fine, judging from the direction the four of them were heading, the destination should be the Coral Palace. He must be discussing something with Xinhai, or perhaps reporting on the progress of a task?

It's not too late to discuss the drinking matter after they finish explaining their affairs.

"Yes, yes, comrade, I will almost forget it if you don't tell me, so please contact me later!"

Mr. Comrade slapped his forehead and remembered the purpose of his visit. He immediately waved goodbye to Zuo Xi and continued towards the Coral Palace.

Ying and Paimon followed after saying hello. Although they wanted to stay with Zuo Xi for a while, since Zuo Xi would appear here, he would not run away in a short time.

That way, there is not much time left, and you can wait for the details to be settled before catching up with the other party.

After the four of them walked away, Zuo Xi looked at Zheping, hesitated for a while and then spoke.

"Brother Zheping, maybe it's my misunderstanding. If I said something wrong, how about you just pretend that I didn't say that?"

"Mr. Zuo Xi, just tell me directly. There is no need to be so polite."

"Okay, then I'll tell you the truth. I just felt that your emotions seemed a little wrong..."

Zuo Xi didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his guess. It's just a conjecture, but considering Zheping's state and the ending in the game, it should be close to the truth.

"Is it because you feel bad about being with a strong person?"
