Ficool

Chapter 1 - Chapter 1

(Orion now stands in place of Lin Feng. The choice wasn't casual—his name carries something we need right now: a reminder to keep walking forward, even when the stars above seem distant.

The raw English translation you're about to read was provided by Mary. We're deeply grateful for her unwavering support. That said, some characters will stray from their original descriptions. This isn't oversight—it's adaptation. We're forging something that speaks more honestly to our world and our circumstances.

We write this in the middle of an ongoing war in Hakha. Nights are no longer safe. When the sun dips below the horizon, silence falls across the streets—not from peace, but fear. Even walking out to buy necessities invites danger. We risk not just stray bullets or sudden violence, but forced conscription. A step outside could mean being taken. Many of us no longer dare.

Updates will be irregular. We don't have the luxury of consistency, and perfection is not our priority. But these stories—these flickers of hope, rage, memory—will continue to reach you. Rough, imperfect, and entirely alive.

Mary, thank you. For the coffee. For holding this line with us. For giving us the words when the world wants to take everything else away.)

Genshin Impact: After hiding....The most powerful of the Seven Stars of Liyue.

Possessamazing business talents. 50

She is in charge of the entire business operations of Liyue.

It often makes businessmen feel tricky.

She also governs the laws of Liyue.So that Liyue can develop in harmony.

Meantime...Ningguang is still a beauty.

She is known as a celebrity. Her beauty is stunning. Her charm is fascinating. Such a perfect character.

Nature has welcomed countless suitors. Many businessmen want to see the light side more.

She was even willing to spend a lot of money to sign an order with Liyue.

There are countless powerful sons, all of whom want to win a smile. But nevertheless.

Ningguang didn't show any interest. It's like there's no one in the world who can make Ningguanglook at it.

And even over time. It's all in full swing..

Ningguang.....She doesn't like the opposite sex.

Itseems that Ningguang only has the Jade Pavilion in her heart, which she regards as her favorite!

But is that really the case?

Apparently not.

Because despite the past years, there is still a figure entwined in Ningguang's mind.

As everyone knows. When Ningguang deals with business.

She like to look at the scenery of Liyue and meditate on the railing.

Not really.

Ningguang is actually looking at the port of Liyue from afar.

She remembered the figure she had met in Liyue Harbor years ago.

His name is Orion. A mysterious man. And the condensation at that time.

It's not like that.

It'snot a celestial star.

It'snot a rich woman.

She's still a little pitiful.

She travels back and forth between Liyue Harbor and Liyue City.

Just to sell what she have in hand. And then in exchange for the cost of living.

That's right.

Ningguang was so pitiful at the time. At that time, she did not have such amazing

business talents.

She was even running for food and clothing.

Until that day. Ningguang was clumsy in business.

When she was worried about food and clothing. She met Orion.

She was also teased by Orion.

Hell to say that she can sell things like this.

Ningguang was a little angry.

Annoyed and said, then you sell it to me!

She didn't believe it.

Orion will be stronger than her! Which Ningguang thought.

Orion really sold it. Even the money he earns can make her eat and drink for a month.

The little poor was shocked! For the first time, she was impressed by such a way of doing business.

She even had the passion to ask for learning.

But looking at Orion. The one who made fun of her.

It's still a pitiful Ningguang, and even a little

reluctant. But she really wanted to learn.

Because she knows.

Orion has the ability to keep her from starving. If learned then the family will not starve.

And Orion that time seemed to see her thoughts. Advice was made directly to her said that she wanted to learn the skills of doing business from him.

The staring light that was seen through was pitiful. Instantly, her face turned red. But in the end, Orion nodded in acknowledgment.

She remembers that she was laughed at by Orion at that time. It made her a little angry.

But fortunately, Orion agreed to teach her the skills of doing business.

It made her happy. But she seemed to rejoice too soon.

Because Lin Feng is conditional. "That is, you have to pay tuition."

"And the tuition fee is all the money you just earned. That's it."

Enough wealth for her to eat and drink for a month!

Ningguang wasn't a rich woman at the time.

Even food and clothing have to be barely fed.

So much money has just arrived.

Haven't covered the heat yet. This is a change of hands to someone else?

Ningguang is obviously reluctant! But Orion had no intention of giving up.

Because Orion seems to be a newcomer.

Therefore, he did not give up the money that

Ningguang had just earned.

Under the coaxing and deception. Ningguang still handed over the large amount of income she had earned.

Even Ningguang felt amused when she thought about it now but the good thing.

Orion didn't lie to her. Orion really taught her countless unheard of business knowledge.

It was like opening the door to a new world for her. Let Ningguang earn the first pot of gold in her life.

Let Ningguang directly remove the title of little pitiful.

Arguably.

Ningguang has the wealth and status it has now.

It's all because of the original figure. That was Ningguang's happiest years.

Because Orion brought her hope. Even, brought her unimaginable achievements.

Even at that time, Ningguang was already

planning.

How to follow Orion to make the business

bigger and bigger. Even to put their names

resounding throughout Teyvat!

Jade Chamber.

It was at that time that it was raised.

Because it is a symbol of infinite wealth.

Ningguang was already excited, how could she accomplish all this with Orion.

One could even say Ningguang has become dependent on Orion or rather Ningguang is already inseparable from Orion.

Just when Ningguang was about to finish all this with Orion.

Orion actually swept away all of Ningguang's property.

And then, directly evaporated from the world!

Ningguang froze.

Orion actually ran away also swept away all her family wealth!

That's for Ningguang. Undoubtedly a major blow!

But Ningguang doesn't believe it! Why did Orion do this!

Could it be that Orion was a liar from the

beginning?

Just to use her to make money? Ningguang felt that she had been deceived.

Innocent and innocent, she was hit hard.

Then she was furious. The one she believed in the most actually deceived her!

This made the innocent and innocent condensation shed a lot of tears. Even with a childish voice, she scolded Orion for many days.

She was angry and hated Orion.

At last, Ningguang was pitiful, so she had to accept this fact. But since then, that simple and innocent Ningguang started growing.

She treats money as her life. She doesn't trust anyone easily. She has even become a celestial star that everyone in Liyue fears.

But no one knows—this one who rejects anyone's pursuit, this Liyue Tianquan Star who seems unapproachable—every time she looks at the port of Liyue...

There is still a figure lingering in her heart.

Because she wanted to know.

Why did that person lie to her?

Why take advantage of her?

That's...

He used to be the person she trusted the most!

After looking at Liyue Harbor for a while,

Ningguang slowly withdrew her gaze. The eyes, unnoticed, carried a ripple. But after turning around, peace was restored.

And at this time, a figure hurried in.

"Lord Tianquan!"

Ningguang frowned and looked over.

She is one of the three secretaries of Tianquan.

"What's going on?"

Ningguang is generally alone. She doesn't like to be disturbed.

At this time, Baizhi said,

"Lord Tianquan, the Northland Bank said that you were there, and you had a ten-year deposit that had expired, and asked you what to do with it."

"Ten years of savings? Nonsense! How could I have a deposit from ten years ago!" Ningguang scolded directly.

Now she is 22 years old, she is a royal sister full of celebrity temperament.

Ten years ago. Isn't that just 12 years old?

She never remembered.

When she was 12 years old, she would have spare money to keep money in the Northland Bank?

But Baizhi said,

"Lord Tianquan. It's true. I'm wondering if I'm going to investigate! Could it be that someone is doing bad things in the name of Lord Tianquan?"

Ningguang frowned again.

'I think what Baizhi said makes sense.'

Then she nodded and said,

"Let's go, let's see."

After speaking, Ningguang took Baizhi and went to the Northland Bank.

---

Northland Bank...

A box was placed in front of Ningguang.

Ningguang's gaze twitched.

Unexpectedly. In her name.

There really was a deposit from 10 years ago.

What's going on?

"How much money?" Ningguang asked the officer in charge.

"Lord Tianquan, there are 200,000 Mora!" the officer in charge replied.

"200,000 Mora... ten years ago... Wait!"

These are the two key words.

It was like reminding Ningguang of something.

Her face changed suddenly. Then she whispered to the staff,

"Open the box!"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The staff member hurriedly opened the box.

A bunch of Mora appeared in front of Ningguang.

Of course, this is not worth mentioning at all for Ningguang's status today.

But at the moment of seeing these Mora—

Ningguang was shocked. Stayed where she was.

Because...

This turned out to be ten years ago.

Those Mora belonged to her!

That's right.

It's the ones she's been thinking about.

Those Mora that were swept away.

Because of the Mora, many of them had the marks that Ningguang made back then.

So—Ningguang couldn't forget.

"Lord Tianquan, you... What happened to you?"

Seeing Ningguang's appearance, Baizhi hurriedly asked.

Returning to her senses, Ningguang hurriedly woke up.

Then she whispered to the staff,

"Speak quickly!"

"Who deposited these Mora!"

"That guy—is he here now!"

It was the first time Ningguang was so excited.

Because that bastard actually, in this way, appeared in front of her!

Also in her name.

Deposited in her name.

Let her take it ten years later.

She just wanted to get that bastard out right now.

Then scold him angrily.

Playing tricks like this.

Isn't it fun?!

This startled the officer in charge.

It was the first time they'd seen the famous Tianquan Star so emotionally out of control.

"This..."

"Lord Tianquan, this is an anonymous deposit."

"Bearer deposit..." Ningguang muttered, then gritted her teeth.

"That guy... What exactly do you want to do?"

And at this time—

The person next to her seemed to have discovered something.

Exclaimed,

"Lord Tianquan, in the box..."

"Letter?" Ningguang was stunned for a moment,

Then looked sharply into the box.

That's when she found out—

Under the Mora, it looked like there was really a letter!

"Bring it out to me!" Ningguang shouted softly.

"Yes!"

Listening to her, they hurriedly put the letter in the box.

And took it out.

Then it was handed over to Ningguang.

Ningguang looked at the letter in her hand.

Emotions have never been more complicated.

She didn't understand why Orion did that kind of thing back then.

He left without saying a word.

Then he deposited the 200,000 Mora in her name.

Lin Feng...

Is this taking her for a fool?

She wanted to see it.

What does Orion want to do?

Ningguang gritted her silver teeth slightly.

She directly tore open the envelope.

But when she saw the first line—

Ningguang was shocked all over.

The coquettishness in her eyes instantly dissipated and wiped out.

And then, her whole person went sluggish.

"Little pity, when you see this box, I guess I'm already dead…"

Ningguang saw the first line.

There was a roar in her head.

She was simply—unbelievable.

He's dead?

No way!

How could that bastard die?

She hurriedly looked again.

"I'm sure you must be angry about why I disappeared out of thin air."

"Why didn't I keep silent and sweep away all your Mora?"

"It's because I realized that my life may be running out, and I knew I wouldn't always be by your side."

"You were dependent on me, and I didn't know if you'd survive on your own after I'm gone."

"So I decided to teach you one last lesson: not to trust anyone."

"It's cruel to you at age twelve... but you'll hate me for this, and from that, you'll learn."

"I believe in ten years, you'll no longer be the innocent, pitiful little girl in Liyue Harbor."

"With your business talent, you'll definitely become an amazing business genius."

"Perhaps this... is the only thing I could do for you."

"Little pity... this is probably the last time I'll call you that."

After reading it, Tianquan Ningguang froze.

Until the envelope in her hand fell to the ground.

She didn't know.

Orion had suffered from a serious illness that year.

She didn't know at all.

Why didn't Orion tell her?

Even in the last moment—

He was planning for her future survival.

And she...

She had scolded that guy as a bastard for ten years?

Until a long time passed, Ningguang's shout echoed through the Northland Bank:

"You bastard!!"

But this time—Tianquan Ningguang was not angry.

She shouted aggrievedly, with tears in her eyes.

As if she were shouting out all the grievances of the past ten years.

At this moment—

Tianquan's condensation turned into tears.

Orion didn't lie to her.

He did it so she could grow.

Weaving such a scam...

Arguably—her current status was built by Orion.

And Orion had given everything, quietly and unseen.

But she had been furious.

Orion hid from her, endured all this alone!

"Bastard! Whether you're dead or alive, I will definitely find you!"

--------------

(I don't know what to say...The original raw translation provided by Mary was so long and only have one sentence in each line. For example

So Ningguang was sad.

Tears falling from her beautiful face.

Keep falling...

Keep falling...

Blah blah...

.....

...

.....yeah something like this)
