It seems that Commander Qin didn't know that another bed should be added here, otherwise he wouldn't have slept on the sofa for two days already.
Then he was in a bit of a dilemma.
The sounds of laughter coming from the bathroom downstairs made him feel a little embarrassed to go down, so he just sat on one of the beds. While waiting, he didn't forget to listen carefully to what they were saying.
I couldn't hear clearly, only some laughter and echoes, but there was also some conversation. Listening closely, it seemed that he was being mentioned?
Chapter 90 Always Moving Forward
"Xin, if you don't mind, let's sleep together." Gan Yu had already finished showering and was wrapped in a towel. Seeing Xin Hui about to go downstairs, she stepped forward and grabbed him.
"I think it's better not to." Xin Hui politely declined her offer. It wasn't that he was unwilling, but he was afraid that Ke Qing would misunderstand him again tomorrow morning. Rather than that, the soft sofa would be more comfortable.
Hu Tao was rubbing Gan Yu's hair with a dry towel, trying to drain the water droplets from her hair. Just as it was Gan Yu's turn to help her dry her hair, she happened to hear this.
Before Xinhui could answer, Hu Tao sat down next to him and said, "You wipe it for me."
Xinhui quickly grabbed the towel she tossed to him, and replied, "Oh, okay."
This was the first time Xin Hui had ever dried a girl's hair, so she was very gentle and didn't dare to use too much force. However, she followed Hu Tao's example and slowly dried Hu Tao's reddish-brown hair.
"Or, I'll do it." Gan Yu found it somewhat amusing to see Xin Hui's awkward and somewhat bewildered expression.
Hu Tao tilted her head back, shook her head slightly, and smiled, "Let this bad guy do it. He'll get some practice now and be more experienced later."
Upon hearing this, Xin Hui guessed that this meant they planned to have him wipe her hair again in the future, so he readily agreed and became even more meticulous and attentive in his movements.
After taking a bath, Hu Tao no longer wore her hat and plum blossom hair ornament. Her loose hair made her look more like a normal, cute girl. Looking at her beautiful plum blossom eyes from the side, they were indeed quite unique.
Moreover, her little head, always brimming with whimsical ideas, was now completely at Xinhui's mercy, and she even looked quite pleased with herself. Was her long hair really this soft even when it was wet? It clearly became light and smooth after being dried.
So, when Xinhui finished wiping Hu Tao's hair, he couldn't help but grab Hu Tao's hair, making the latter blush with embarrassment.
"That should be fine. In that case, I'll go downstairs first." Xinhui wanted to make a quick getaway before Hu Tao blamed him.
Just as he stood up and took a step to leave, Hu Tao's slender little hand grabbed his wrist from behind.
The glossy black nail polish shimmered with a bright light. Xin Hui was still a little puzzled, wondering if something else was wrong. Hu Tao behind him coughed twice and said nervously, "Why don't you sleep upstairs with me? Gan Yu and I feel bad about always letting you sleep on the sofa."
“But the sofa is very soft and comfortable, so there’s nothing to feel wronged about.” Xin Hui hesitated for a moment. “Besides, you girls would definitely mind, right?”
"Why don't you understand? I'm asking you to sleep with me. You seemed to enjoy sleeping with Gan Yu the other day." Hu Tao didn't hide anything anymore and directly said what she was thinking, "I just wanted to try this feeling."
"Okay, I understand." Xin Hui couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this. He hadn't expected Hu Tao's intention to be like this, which was quite amusing.
I asked Gan Yu for her opinion, and although she readily agreed, I couldn't help but see a hint of disappointment in her eyes.
Gan Yu turned around and went to take care of the drunk Ke Qing, and also took good care of drying his hair. All three of them had bath towels wrapped around their fair bodies. Hu Tao then sent Xin Hui out first, asking him to wait outside for a while.
"We're going to change into our pajamas. You'd better take a shower too, otherwise if I smell your stench later, I'll definitely give you a chance to experience the services of the Hall of Rebirth."
Hu Tao gave him a fierce warning, and then locked Xin Hui out of the room.
Xinhui smiled helplessly. "Fine, I'll wash it then. Why the threat?"
However, to Hu Tao and the others' surprise, Xin Hui's entire washing and grooming process took less than ten minutes, and he even changed into a light, dark blue nightgown.
This drew a disapproving look from Walnut: "Are you sure you've washed it clean?"
As she spoke, she also ran over to Xinhui's neck and chest and gently sniffed them. To Hu Tao's surprise, there was really no smell. Instead, there was a faint fragrance, probably the smell of bath water.
“I already told you, it won’t smell bad. Besides, boys usually shower very quickly,” Xinhui said, noticing Hu Tao’s surprise.
Hu Tao stared at him with slightly narrowed eyes, making Xin Hui feel a little guilty. Fortunately, she didn't pursue the matter further. The group felt that since they were returning to Liyue Harbor the next day, they should get some rest.
Gan Yu, dressed in a white dress, leaned against the window. The cool, pure moonlight shone in from outside, illuminating her body and outlining her breathtakingly beautiful curves.
This made Xinhui a little afraid to look at it for too long. When he came to his senses, he found that Hu Tao, who was using his arm as a pillow in the quilt, was not moving at all and was very well-behaved. Judging from her even breathing rhythm, she seemed to have fallen asleep.
Walnut was wearing a pink nightgown, her soft and delicate body slightly curled up, and a fragrance like that of rainbow flowers emanated from her, making her look incredibly alluring.
At first, the two were a little nervous when they touched each other. Although Xinhui had fallen asleep with Hu Tao in his arms at the "border" before, the latter cried her eyes out at that time, and he had to stay up all night to watch over her. There was no easy time at all.
However, the sleeping walnut was quite well-behaved, with a youthful face, tender skin, and a sleeping posture that really resembled that of a child, as it was sleeping on its stomach.
Xin Hui gradually felt sleepy, and as his eyes closed slightly, the night passed quickly.
The next morning, bathed in the morning dew and sunlight, Xinhui and his companions arrived at the stone bridge in Mondstadt, where Commander Qin and her entourage had already seen them off.
The delicate scent of dandelion and mint filled the air, calming everyone's mood. After meeting the gentle gaze of the troupe leader, Keqing, Xinhui noticed that Keqing was shaking hands with her.
"We hope that in the future, the Knights of Favonius can deepen their exchanges and cooperate with the Liyue Seven Stars for mutual benefit. This has always been Liyue's mission." Keqing's tone became steady and firm at this moment.
"Definitely." The troupe leader gave her a positive answer with a smile. "After this incident, I am even more convinced that international cooperation can easily solve some thorny issues."
"No matter what changes occur in our country or the world, humanity will always fulfill its responsibilities. May the wind god protect you and ensure your smooth journey forward!"
Chapter Ninety-One: A Good Article Can Be Broken
Today, Liyue Harbor is still in a pleasant atmosphere, especially the young man with short navy blue hair, who is in a good mood and happy after "stealing half a day of leisure".
The boy with orange-tinted eyes is Xingqiu, the second young master of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce.
It's worth mentioning that Xingqiu has recently become fascinated with biographical novels.
This type of novel uses real-life figures as prototypes to create stories, aiming to bring spiritual pleasure to readers who like these figures.
At this moment, Xingqiu was sitting at a round wooden table, holding a novel by Inazuma Yaedo called "I'm Mr. Yun's Dog". Perhaps the author's writing style was average, but he was able to create the special emotions that Yun Jin expressed in the novel.
This amused Xingqiu, and the smile that kept creeping onto his lips betrayed him.
Although I wasn't a fan of this kind of novel before, it seems that every type of novel has its audience.
"However, this author not only doesn't know Yun Jin, but has never even been to Li Yue," Xing Qiu murmured regretfully after turning to the last page.
The character descriptions are somewhat awkward, and the architectural descriptions are flawed... In short, it's certainly distinctive, but there are many areas that need improvement.
How about we listen to another performance by Mr. Yun later? I think there's a performance by her next to the Liuli Pavilion tonight.
As soon as the idea came to mind, Xingqiu thought it was a great idea. Stealing a whole day of leisure from a busy life would be even more pleasant.
Yun Jin, as long as she can drink a satisfying beverage, she will be motivated to create new plays. For this reason, Xing Qiu has hidden a jar of tea in his room, waiting to deliver it to her when she is in the mood, so that he will have endless tales of strange heroes to hear.
Thinking of this, Xingqiu was about to set off to retrieve the jar of treasured tea when he noticed a young man with short blue hair and golden eyes looking at him with a gentle smile from under the railing and stairs.
"Sigh~" Xingqiu glanced at Xinhui and knew that his plan was probably going to fall through. He held onto the railing, went down the stairs, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xin Hui looked at Xing Qiu with a bright and sincere gaze, making it difficult for the latter to refuse Xin Hui's request.
"It's nothing serious, I just wanted to ask how long the renovation of the pavilion will take?" Xinhui said with a somewhat sheepish smile. "Also, do we need to buy some furniture?"
Xingqiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. He thought it was something serious, but it turned out to be just that.
He immediately reassured him: "The renovation of the pavilion should take another twenty days. As for the furniture you mentioned, there's no need to rush. Tell me your requirements and I'll make arrangements accordingly."
Xingqiu gently waved his closed paper fan, looking relaxed and seemingly reliable.
"That's fine then. Actually, my requirements are quite simple..."
You wouldn't believe it until you hear it; Xin Hui's eloquent words over and over in just a few minutes completely overwhelmed Xing Qiu.
"Stop, stop, stop, are you done?" Xingqiu rubbed his forehead in annoyance. Seeing that Xinhui had finally finished speaking, but seemed to be trying to come up with some kind of request, he quickly interrupted him.
Xingqiu could accept a room that didn't need too much decoration, a room decorated with a girly theme, some tables, chairs, cabinets, and sofas, but there was one thing he couldn't understand the most.
Although that building has a dozen or so rooms and the space is quite spacious, why do you need eight beds?
"Why do you need so many beds? Can you even sleep in them all?" Xingqiu looked at Xinhui with incomprehension, his eyes narrowed, his gaze fixed on him, making the latter feel somewhat uncomfortable.
"Isn't this to prepare more guest rooms?" Xinhui scratched the back of his head guiltily.
His suspicious demeanor immediately suggested that things weren't so simple. Fortunately, Xingqiu didn't intend to press him for answers, but instead nodded knowingly.
"I understand. These requirements aren't too difficult to meet. I'll hand them over to the people in the Chamber of Commerce."
"That's really troublesome."
"Don't say that. If your Yiyu Pavilion could take on more orders from the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, that would be a help to us as well."
“Okay, no problem. Just give me any orders from the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce in the future.”
"..."
In front of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, the two young men chatted for a long time before finally appearing to have reached an agreement.
Xingqiu also recommended some biographical novels to Xinhui, including "I Became Mr. Yun's Dog," "The Legend of the Emperor," and "My Adventure with Miss Keqing"...
These novels really broadened Xin Hui's horizons, especially "My Adventure with Miss Keqing". The author actually wrote about the shameless life of the protagonist and Keqing after experiencing life and death together. He was really bold.
"Are these kinds of books allowed to be sold?" Xin Hui asked awkwardly.
Xingqiu replied thoughtfully, "I hadn't really thought about that. But these authors have all managed to keep things within acceptable limits, perhaps because they write well. So far, no one has reported them..."
That's really impressive; they've completely figured out the weakness of their writing style.
"By the way, there's a performance by the Yunhan Society at Liuli Pavilion tonight. Why don't we go listen to it together?" Xingqiu suddenly remembered something and invited Xinhui.
drama?
The people of Liyue have inherited many traditional arts from their ancestors, and Liyue Opera is one of them. Liyue Opera has a long history. Today, the Liyue Opera performed by this generation of artists is quite different from its original form. Fortunately, today's Liyue Opera still retains the intricate vocals and captivating melodies of ancient Liyue Opera.
Today, Liyue's performing artists often form troupes. Among the many troupes, the most famous is the "Yunhan Troupe." The "Yunhan Troupe" has been passed down through generations by the Yun family, a family of performing artists, and its current leader is Yun Jin, a rising star in Liyue Harbor.
Xinhui and his friends had just heard Yun Jin's opera "The Goddess Splits the Temple" at the last Lantern Festival. Although the beautiful melody had captivated him, Xinhui had only just returned to Liyue Harbor, so he was far from having such a mood.
So he cautiously tried to decline, saying, "How about we go another day?"
His words displeased Xingqiu, who complained to Xinhui, "I've helped you so much, all I need now is someone to go to the opera with me. Boss Xinhui, you won't refuse so easily, will you?"
Chapter Ninety-Two: Watching a Play at the Glazed Pavilion
Faced with Xingqiu's slightly threatening invitation, as if the other party would stop working for him if he didn't agree, although it was a bit of an exaggeration, under such pressure, Xinhui had no choice but to compromise.
The boy with short, dark blue hair waved his fan and pointed, and the two of them headed towards their destination in the sunset.
"Are we really going to go to the Liuli Pavilion so early to wait for Yun Jin to appear?" Xin Hui glanced at the sky and felt it was still a bit early.
