After agreeing to help Kaeya, Jia Changjiang and Lumine left the Knights of Favonius headquarters with Venti and Paimon, ready to handle Kaeya’s errand.
However…
As soon as they reached a quiet spot outside, Lumine turned around and scrutinized Venti.

Jia Changjiang even offered Diluc a few customized options:

"Write a love poem…?"
Sitting on a bench at the edge of the square, Jia Changjiang bit the end of his pen while holding a piece of paper in his hand.
On the other side of the square, Venti was teaching others how to compose love poems.
Jia Changjiang, however, didn’t bother to join the lesson. He just chewed on his pen, thinking about what he should write.

Elias eyed the gray-haired woman he had intercepted, a bit surprised.
