The woman was wearing a black long dress, with beautiful golden hair falling straight to her waist. What shocked Paimon the most was that her figure was even more imposing than Lisa's. Yet such a beautiful person left no impression on her at all.
Paimon looked at her in confusion and asked, "May I ask who you are looking for?"
"I heard that Mr. Su Han was injured, so I specifically brought some medicine to visit him. Are you not going to invite me in to sit for a while?"
Rosalyne opened her palm, and a black porcelain bottle appeared in it.
Although Paimon did not recognize this witch, she thought she might be Su Han's friend, so she nodded and said, "Then please come in quickly. Su Han really has great popularity. He gets injured once and so many people come to visit him."
The women inside the room also found the voice outside unfamiliar. Only after the visitor entered did they realize that they did not recognize her at all. Only Jean recognized her identity. This woman was from the Fatui.
However, Jean was very confused. Was Su Han not at odds with the Fatui? How did the two of them get involved with each other, and why did she know about Su Han's injury?
Eula noticed Jean's unusual expression and quietly asked, "You know her?"
"Yes. Although I do not know her position, she is a high-ranking member of the Fatui."
"The Fatui? Could it be the one from this morning?"
"This morning?"
Jean froze slightly as she recalled the rumors circulating earlier that morning. Her expression immediately turned extremely unpleasant. She had thought the rumors about a rich Fatui woman wanting to keep Su Han were fabricated, but she did not expect them to be true. Was this woman shameless enough to come knocking on the door herself?
Rosalyne ignored everyone's gazes and walked straight up to Su Han. Looking at his blank expression, the witch's lips curved slightly as she teased him, "Oh? Are you that surprised to see me?"
"Uh, a little."
Although Su Han did not know what this formidable woman wanted, he had no way out now and could only brace himself to deal with her.
Fortunately, Rosalyne did not intend to make trouble for him. Instead, she took out the medicine bottle and said, "Here, try this. It is a product from that Doctor. Although I really hate that madman, the medicine he develops is quite effective."
Jean, who had originally not wanted to speak up, finally stood up after hearing that name. "I am very sorry, but Su Han cannot accept this medicine."
Paimon asked in confusion, "Why is that?"
She did not understand. The other party had clearly come with good intentions, so rejecting her face to face did not seem appropriate. The others were also puzzled by Jean's actions.
"Why?" Jean walked up to Rosalyne and looked straight into her silver eyes, speaking each word clearly. "Because the Doctor you mentioned has conducted many cruel experiments on children. Can medicine developed by such a person really be safe?"
Everyone froze when they heard this, completely unprepared for such an answer.
However, Rosalyne was not flustered at all. Instead, she revealed a mocking smile. "Do not act like some pure white lotus. Does your Knights of Favonius not have plenty of dirty affairs? For example, this time, the dignified Acting Grand Master did not go to the front line and instead let an outsider get seriously injured. If I were you, I would not even have the face to show myself!"
"You…" Jean was flushed red from the retort and immediately argued back. "I was injured beforehand, which is why I could not go. Otherwise, I would never have let anything happen to Su Han."
Rosalyne showed disdain upon hearing this. "Oh, oh, oh, what a wonderful excuse. I heard that last time it was also Su Han who helped you. What did he get in return? Just a useless honorary knight title. There was not even a bit of actual help. Do not believe me? Ask Su Han himself how I thanked him after he helped me."
"We do not need you to remind us to remember Su Han's kindness. And if it were not for your Fatui, how could Mondstadt have been so chaotic some time ago?"
"Then why do you not reflect on why the people of Mondstadt do not side with you?"
As the two women argued more and more fiercely, Su Han was completely numb. At the beginning, they were still attacking each other from his perspective, but later it turned into personal attacks, such as someone's chest being too small, or someone else having such a large chest and not being afraid of being flung away while walking.
In short, Su Han finally understood why having too many women could be terrifying.
The others had already sat aside and started cracking sunflower seeds before the argument escalated. As for why Amber and Eula did not step in to help Jean, the reason was simple. Neither of them was good at verbal combat.
Especially Eula, who was defeated in just two rounds.
After about an hour, Rosalyne suddenly looked out the window and said, "Continuing to argue like this is really meaningless. Why not let that bard outside come in and give his evaluation?"
"Huh? The bard?"
Venti, who was watching the show from the rooftop, shuddered. He had not expected to be dragged into this, but since he had been discovered, he did not dare to stay outside any longer and quickly flipped in through the window.
Facing everyone's shocked gazes, Venti scratched his head awkwardly and said, "Uh, if I said I was just passing by, would you believe me?"
Hu Tao said, "Hmph."
Eula said, "Heh."
Paimon said, "As if anyone would believe you!"
Amber said, "Even kids would not say something like that."
Faced with everyone's ridicule, Venti shamelessly ignored it. He walked over to the medicine bottle, examined it, and said, "This medicine has no side effects at all, and it will have remarkable effects on injuries."
Jean's face turned pale upon hearing this, while Rosalyne looked completely smug.
"See that? Even this bard says there is no problem with it. Could it be that the Knights of Favonius are just used to being stingy and cannot stand seeing others be generous? But I am magnanimous, so I will let this matter go. As for what you said earlier about that Doctor being unreliable, of course I agree. It is just that with this kind of medicine, he would not dare deceive me."
After saying this, Rosalyne left the room proudly, like a peacock showing off its feathers.
Looking at Acting Grand Master Jean, who had been completely defeated, Paimon whispered, "Although she is from the Fatui, her mouth is really sharp. Lumine, if we run into her next time, it is better not to talk to her and just attack directly."
Lumine nodded vigorously. She also did not want to communicate with someone so quick-tongued.
Because of this small incident, the dinner plan was completely scrapped, and everyone gradually left.
When only Jean and Lumine remained in the room, the female captain suddenly said, "Can you let me take care of Su Han?"
"Uh, alright. Then I will go rest first."
Lumine was slightly stunned but ultimately agreed. Today's battle had exhausted her as well, and it was indeed time to rest.
Soon, only Su Han and Jean were left in the room. Looking at the dejected Acting Grand Master, he comforted her. "Actually, you do not need to take those words to heart."
Jean shook her head and said self-mockingly, "But if you think about it carefully, our Mondstadt really is quite stingy."
If such merit in saving a nation were placed in Liyue, it would definitely not be rewarded with just a symbolic honorary title.
