Yung-lian looked everywhere for zhongli only to find him next to Xiao on a small table
they seemed to be talking about something as Zhongli face Turned Serious when Xiao told him  something.
  Yung-lian walked to the two and took a sit next to zhongli they seemed to noticed as they Tried to change the conversation.
"Zhongli I finally found you! " yung-lian said in a happy tone as zhongli gave her a small smile
Xiao stood quite but gave her a awkward smile.
Yung-lian noticed how serious the two looked "Uh.. Guys is everything okay..?" yung-lian said as she gave the two a worried look.
Zhongli cleared his throat as he spoked "yes yung-lian everything is okay" zhongli said with a smile trying to convince yung-lian that everything is okay but she still wasn't convinced
"Zhongli you know I can see right right into your lies" yung-lian said as zhongli eyes widen as he quickly looked down
"Zhongli.. Xiao please tell me what's going on.." Yung-lian said as zhongli sighed and looked at Xiao.
"Xiao go ahead tell her" zhongli said as Xiao quickly looked at him with wide eyes
"I don't know what you are talking about.. " Xiao said as he looked down
"Xiao." Zhongli said in a serious tone
"Fine.. " Xiao said as he faced yung-lian "The Harbingers.. "
Yung-lian eyes went wide "w-what about the Harbingers..?  Yung-lian said as She gaved them a worried face
" The harbingers are on their way to your Nation.. Trying to find you "Xiao said as he looked down with a sad look.
yung-lian gasped and put a hand on her mouth
" Sumeru.. "Yung-lian whispered as tears were about to fell from her eyes as Zhongli noticed and softly holded her hand
" hey look at me.. "Zhongli said as yung-lian did as he said " everything is going to be okay.. We are not going to let those Fatui harbingers Destroy your nation...I'm going to protect you" zhongli said in a determined voice as Xiao Quickly nodded giving yung-lian a small smile
"But how they are harbingers and I seemed to lose my powers after time.." Yung-lian said as she tried to manifest her weapon but it didn't work
" Don't stress yourself they are going to appear once again "zhongli said with a smile as yung-lian nodded and smiled as she remember she was going to ask Zhongli about something
  " Hey Zhongli.. "Yung-lian said as it quickly got zhongli attention as he nodded
" Xiao can I tell him the story you told.. Me since you know we are all sitting together "yung-lian asked Xiao with a nervous look
Xiao quickly turned to look at her as he quickly thought about it and nodded.
  Zhongli looked at the two with a worried look as yung-lian began to talk
" do you know why Xiao was acting that way with Karen ..? "Yung-lian said as Zhongli shook his head no in confusion
" Karen used to be Xiao fiance." "Yung-lian said as Zhongli quickly turned to look at Xiao as he turned the other way
" is that true Xiao.. ? "Zhongli asked as Xiao turned to look at him and gave him a small nod.
" why haven't you told me in all these years..? Zhongli said with a sad smile as Xiao felt guilty about the situation
"I'm sorry...I just felt like-" Xiao got cut off by zhongli
"Don't worry about it it's all in the pass" zhongli said with a small smile as Xiao looked at him with wide eyes not expecting the reaction.
Yung-lian looked at the two and smiled feeling glad they get along well.
Zhongli turned to look at yung-lian with a smile as she smiled back at him  yung-lian smile soon turned to a frown as she realized the Fatui harbingers are still on their way to sumeru.
Zhongli seemed to noticed her frown as he quickly Comforted her
"Hey yung-lian everything is going to be alright.. " zhongli said as he rubbed yung-lian shoulder softly
Xiao seemed to regret telling yung-lian the situation that was going to happen in sumeru
"Thank you zhongli.. Is just that my people are there.. I don't want them to get hurt. " yung-lian said trying not to cry
"You know we are not going to let them yung-lian. " Xiao said in a serious voice as yung-lian turned to look at him with a grateful smile
"He's right we are not going to let them destroy your nation.. No matter what it takes. " zhongli said in a determined tone
Yung-lian Couldn't help but cry of happiness knowing that zhongli and Xiao are going to help her
"Thank you so much" yung-lian said as zhongli wiped her tears with a sad smile as Xiao crossed his arms and nodded after a while they decided to make a plan of how to stop them.
"To stop them we need to at least know what type of Fatui harbingers they are and how skilled they are" yung-lian said as she crossed her arms in a determined look
"She's right we need to know at least what their titles are" Zhongli said as he looked at Xiao knowing that he might know some.
"Okay so basically the harbingers are listed of how many time they been a Fatui harbinger" Xiao said with a serious voice as the yung-lian and zhongli nodded
"There are 11 Fatui harbingers" Xiao said as yung-lian got even more curious
"I'm sorry but may I ask what are the names they are know by" yung-lian said as Xiao nodded
"Of course.. But I only know a couple of them.." Xiao said as yung-lian nodded
"Signora the 8th of the Fatui harbingers... Tartaglia the 11th of the Fatui harbingers... Scaramouche the number 6th of the Fatui harbingers.. " Xiao said as a scowl appeard on his face after saying his name yung-lian seemed to noticed as she gave him a worried look.
"Lastly The Qarinah the 2nd of the Fatui harbingers.. I heard that she is the most skilled harbinger of them all"  Xiao said as  yung-lian got even more curious about what this specific harbinger did since she was more higher than the others.
"I'm sorry.. That's all the Fatui harbingers I know.. " Xiao sad as he nervously rubbed his neck
"It's alright xiao at least we know the possibility of them being involved in this. " yung-lian with a determined smile
zhongli gave her a small smile glad that she is fighting for he nation to be safe.
"Now that we know some of the harbingers we should try to find them" yung-lian said not really thinking straight
"Yung-lian is not that easy...they are harbingers they are not stupid enough to get caught" Xiao said in a serious voice as Zhongli nodded
"You're right.. I'm not really thinking straight. " yung-lian said as started to think of more ideas
"I know this idea might seem stupid but what if we go to sumeru..?" yung-lian said Hoping that the 2 of them would agree
"Mmm well we could but it could take a while" zhongli said as he put a hand on his chin
Xiao nodded "yes we can try to stop them by going to sumeru.. " Xiao thought as yung-lian happily nodded glad that she could help
"Wellll what are we waiting for.. Come on! we have a nation to save! "

Yung-lian said as she dragged zhongli and Xiao with her as the two of them smiled.
