[Genshin Impact] A world where only travelers are alone

Chloe:!

She had completely forgotten about this matter. All her attention was drawn to her parents' sudden visit, and she had no time to spare to cover up the lie.

And how could she make it work? She couldn't just leave the guest room unused and let her parents and Villette sleep on the sofa, right?

Just thinking about it made Chloe feel outrageous.

But having mentioned this, she had to continue thinking about another thing - where should Violet sleep tonight?
Chloe felt like she was going to faint when she thought about how her parents would stare at each other if they got up at night and ran into the Supreme Inquisitor who was still awake.

No! This cannot happen! Violet cannot stay on the couch tonight!
But what should she do?

Since she never thought that the Durands would come to visit her, Chloe only considered that Aurelie might come to visit when she bought the house, so the house only has a master bedroom and a guest bedroom.

Chloe had been planning to give him the guest room this morning. If he asked, she would say that she had cleaned out the warehouse where she had stored her things. However, her parents' sudden visit completely disrupted her plans, and there were no extra rooms left.

She bit her lip in deep thought, and became so absorbed in her thoughts that she even forgot about Villette who was still waiting for her answer.

Until a pair of hands held her face——

That Villette had stood up from the chair without knowing it.

Due to space limitations, the two stood very close to each other. Originally, it was not noticeable if one was sitting and the other standing. However, as Villette stood up, the barely noticeable sense of emptiness suddenly disappeared.

Especially when the guy who was two heads taller than her looked down at her, he just happened to block the light above his head, and Chloe was completely shrouded in the shadow.

"Ms. Chloe, what are you thinking about?"

The backlight blurred the expression on his face, making only his vertical eyes appear extremely bright, which made Chloe feel as if she was being stared at by a wild beast.

She couldn't help but take a step back.

Villette's movements froze, as if she had finally come out of some strange state. She quickly let go and distanced herself from her: "I'm sorry, Ms. Chloe, did I scare you?"

As he said this, he didn't even dare to look at her again, for fear that she would be scared by him again.

Villette knew how others were wary of him, especially when facing those eyes that didn't look like they were human.

The identity of an alien has always been the gap between him and ordinary humans.

It was rare for Violet to lose control like this, but when Chloe was in a daze just now, those beautiful green eyes were clearly looking at him but not at him...

He doesn't like this feeling.

So he reached out, trying to get Chloe's attention, but he didn't expect to scare her.

Villette felt annoyed and no longer wanted to ask further questions. He hurriedly repeated his apology and wanted to leave.

But Chloe had already reacted to what had just happened and quickly grabbed his hand: "Then Master Villette!"

That Villette did not look back, but she still stopped.

Chloe had no choice but to squeeze past him and get in front of the man.

That Villette still didn't look at her, avoiding her eyes to avoid meeting them again.

But Chloe persisted and held his face in the same way, guiding him to look at her. Then, when he met her eyes, she smiled widely: "Oh, isn't this beautiful? I really didn't know what it was just now!"

Violet was stunned. "I know, it must be because Lady Violet is too beautiful! She is so beautiful that I don't believe that the person standing in front of me is real, so I took a step back! Well, it's all Lady Violet's fault!"

The man was even more confused by the blame-shifting behavior, but he still subconsciously wanted to apologize.

But before he could open his mouth, someone blocked his mouth with a finger.

"But you don't need to apologize~" Chloe narrowed her eyes, looking like she was calculating, "As long as you stay with me today, I will forgive you--"

She pulled Violet's hand closer, tilted her head and rubbed her cheek against it.

Just like the group of kittens that Villette had been thinking about for a long time, surrounding Furninna's footsteps.

However, unlike the other kittens who would unconditionally get close to others as long as they were fed, Chloe would only get close to him...

Violet's eyes darkened as she stared at her.

But this time Chloe was no longer afraid, her smile was still bright and bright, and she even reached out to touch his eyes: "Speaking of which, the blue at the end of Lord Villette's eyes is really beautiful, did you paint it yourself?"

I didn't expect that Villette would do such a thing.

But speaking of it, someone has always dressed very exquisitely, whether it is the half-tied braid behind the back or the elegant bow.

Chloe even had an image in her mind of him getting up early every morning and applying eyeliner to himself in the mirror.

She was trying not to laugh, and for a moment she didn't notice that she was getting too close.

The shadows of the two people almost overlapped, elongated under the light.

Villette didn't know if such a close distance was normal. He just felt that the breath Chloe exhaled when she spoke fell on his chest and it was itchy.

But the Supreme Inquisitor's clothes were so thick that it was impossible for the girl's breath to really touch his chest. He was not even sure whether the itch was real.

He could only lean back slightly, not knowing that this action would fully expose his red neck to Chloe's eyes.

He didn't notice that Chloe's eyes had suddenly widened, and he was still struggling to answer her question: "No, my eyes have always been like this. Maybe it's just my nature..."

"True identity?" Chloe finally looked away and asked curiously, "Yes, by the way, what race is Lord Villette?"

Even though we have known each other for such a long time, I have never heard him mention it.

Moreover, she seemed to have never seen such beautiful eyes before. If we judge by the hair, the one that most resembled it should be a small sea otter, with the same white hair and the two most conspicuous blue strands.

Villette had no intention of hiding it from her, and the only reason she hadn't mentioned it before was because she thought it was unnecessary.

He was just about to reveal his identity as the Water Dragon King when he suddenly heard a slight noise coming from not far away.

Of course Chloe heard it too. She thought that the little sea otter might be hungry again and ran out to look for something to eat. She looked back in confusion, but when she looked closely, she saw that it was her unreliable parents!
The Durands were both covering their eyes with their hands in unison, and although the gaps between their fingers were stretched impossibly wide, it was obvious that they were trying to hide something, and it was completely useless, so everyone could easily see what they were doing.

"Dad! Mom!"
