[They haven't been there for a reason too, as Childe has instructed his subordinates not to go near the ruins for an indefinite amount of time. The amount of ruin guards in the area was what he'd cited, saying that their numbers were increasing and that it was no longer safe to linger in the area. It wasn't entirely untrue, knowing that Dottore's old research lab was there, and inside was a wealth of of the machines that could eventually wander out.
But he also figures that was the reason for her visit, because there was nothing else in the area that could possibly warrant her precious time. She wouldn't show until it was safe to move, and so he bides his time until then.
He's already inside the factory, though not because he knows she's there. The incident with Teucer made him worry, and his little brother can be just as much as a troublemaker as he can be, what with showing up in Liyue unannounced as he did last time. So he's gone about to try to disable as much dangerous machinery as he can in case of another surprise arrival by his brother, as a way to pass the time, get some exercise in and wonder if Lumine would show up here one day.
He's working behind a deactivated ruin guard a little into the factory, not knowing he has a guest.]
