As Kurumi spoke, she waved her hands dramatically, as if acting, to signal to Xiangling that she should be more proactive.
Xiangling hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke her mind in a low voice: "I...I don't want that.
"Her voice was low, revealing a hint of uncertainty and expectation.
Seeing that Xiangling seemed to have been touched by his words, Hu Tao suddenly took out a fan and a fake beard from behind him like a magic trick and quickly dressed up.
She unfolded her fan, changed her previous relaxed attitude, and put on the posture of a storyteller, ready to use more vivid words to persuade Xiangling.
"Ahem, listen carefully... ah, no, I mean, Xiangling, you don't want to just silently like Su Chen forever, right?"
Kurumi was a bit slow at first, but she soon adjusted her tone and began to seriously explain to Xiangling why she should take some action.
After Hu Tao's humorous and sincere storytelling, Xiangling's mentality gradually changed.
Hu Tao's words were like a key that opened the lock in Xiangling's heart, making her begin to reconsider her feelings for Su Chen and how to express these feelings.
……
"Well, Su Chen, can you come to my house for dinner?"
Xiangling extended an invitation to Su Chen with a hint of barely perceptible nervousness.
Her eyes sparkled with anticipation, but at the same time she couldn't hide a rare shyness.
Su Chen felt a little curious when facing Xiangling, who was very different from usual.
Although Xiangling occasionally invited him to her home for a meal, she had never been as shy as she was today. Although he was full of doubts, Su Chen gladly accepted the invitation, wanting to see what Xiangling was up to.
As time passed, when Su Chen arrived at Xiangling's house, he found that Hu Tao "happened" to be there, and seemed to be playing at Xiangling's house. The three of them enjoyed the sumptuous dinner prepared by Xiangling.
What happened later was the situation we see now.
Su Chen was so confused that Xiangling and Hutao carried him towards the big bed in the hotel room as if they were carrying a New Year pig.
Only then did Su Chen realize that tonight's party seemed unusual, but before he could fully react, he was gently led to the bed.
At that moment, Su Chen truly felt the unusualness of the situation, but as for what was about to happen, he chose to continue acting with them.
And on that big bed, there were even various props that Walnut had prepared in advance.
She wanted her best friend to enjoy the best moment in this first experience of the fusion of elemental forces, so she put in a lot of effort.
Su Chen, who was still a little confused at the moment, didn't even prepare to resist and was taken all the way to the bedroom.
It was not until he entered the bedroom and was pushed onto the bed by Xiangling that Su Chen realized something was wrong, but he still did not choose to resist.
In the end, he just watched helplessly as Xiangling, who seemed to be plotting something bad against him, and Hu Tao, who was there to assist him, made advances towards him.

Chapter 355: At the beginning of the Lantern Festival, the women of Liyue plot to fight for Su Chen (Special Chapter 1 of the Lantern Festival)
During last year’s Lantern Festival, the lanterns in Liyue Harbor were so bright that it seemed like daytime.
On this year's Lantern Festival night, the moonlight and lights shine again.
With the arrival of the Lantern Festival, Su Chen walked on the streets of Liyue Harbor as scheduled. The Lantern Festival must naturally be spent in Liyue. After dealing with Xiangling and Hutao, he returned to the streets of Liyue Harbor.
……
Liyue Harbor was brightly lit, the vendors’ shouts could be heard one after another, and the children’s laughter echoed in the streets.
Su Chen was infected by the warm atmosphere. A smile appeared on his face. He took a deep breath and sighed that this was the taste of the Chinese New Year.
Just as he was immersed in the festive atmosphere, he suddenly felt two hands reaching out from behind and grabbing him tightly.
"Haha, I finally found you, Su Chen."
"Oh, it's you, Kurumi."
After recognizing that the person coming from behind was Hu Tao in her iconic outfit, Su Chen easily grabbed her arm and did a light over-the-shoulder throw.
With her agility, Walnut turned gracefully in the air and landed steadily.
"Your way of greeting is really unique." Walnut said with a smile, "Oh, I forgot something. The Hall of the Dead has a New Year's promotion recently. The first purchase is 50% off, and there are various styles of coffins to choose from. Doesn't it sound attractive?"
Su Chen smiled bitterly and replied: "From a certain perspective, it is indeed attractive to me, although it may not be the kind of attraction you think. However, can we not mention this during the New Year? After all, this topic is a bit..."
"Why? Isn't the New Year a good time to think about these things when everyone's wallets are full? Although everyone is fine now, who can guarantee the future? We have to prepare in advance."
"I understand what you mean, but it may not be appropriate to bring up this topic during the New Year..."
Su Chen was just about to explain to Hu Tao why it was inappropriate to bring up such heavy topics during the New Year, but an unknown undercurrent was brewing in the night of Liyue Harbor.
At this moment, he has not yet realized what kind of storm he is about to face.
……
In the Jade Pavilion of Liyue, Ningguang sat there, her eyes as deep as the abyss.
A messenger hurried in and reported in a low voice: "Lord Ningguang, according to our intelligence, Su Chen appeared in the suburbs not long ago and has now arrived in Liyue Harbor."
Ningguang nodded slightly and instructed calmly, "Okay, continue tracking, but don't attract his attention."
At the same time, on a busy construction site in Liyue Harbor, a foreman hurriedly reported to Yuhengxing: "Sir, Mr. Su Chen has been found on the main street of Liyue Harbor."
Yuhengxing Keqing nodded calmly and responded: "I understand. I'll leave the rest to you. I have something to do first."
At Yuehai Pavilion, Ganyu was discussing matters with his subordinates when he suddenly received a message: "Lord Ganyu, it was reported that Su Chen and Hu Tao had a conflict on the main street. Do you need to mediate?"
Ganyu stood up immediately after hearing this, "What happened? I'll go right away. At the same time, notify the Qianyan Army to prepare to protect the people."
On the distant Aozang Mountain, a master said to his disciple: "Disciple, the magic array I set up has detected Su Chen's presence in Liyue Harbor."
Shen He responded excitedly: "Really? I'm going down the mountain now. I haven't seen Su Chen for a long time."
At this moment, different people were in different places. Ningguang, Keqing, Ganyu, Shenhe and others were all ready for their actions, and a common thought flashed through their minds.
"Su Chen, this time, we will never let you leave easily."
……
"Madam boss, today's food is really great, thank you!"
When Paimon thanked the proprietress at Wangshu Inn, her face was filled with a satisfied smile.
The proprietress responded with a warm smile, but then sighed and fell into deep thought.
"You know, I'm still thinking about whether I should add some festive decorations to the inn for the upcoming Lantern Festival..."
Since the last incident of the Demon God's revival, Su Chen has become a celebrity in Liyue.
This meant that every time he wanted to take a quiet rest in the inn in Liyue Harbor, there would always be someone curious enough to disturb his peace. In the end, he and Xiao had no choice but to choose to stay temporarily in the Wangshu Inn.
Paimon frowned slightly when he heard the mention of the Lantern Festival, and tried to recall the details of the festival.
"What is the origin of the Sea Lantern Festival? I seem to have heard of it somewhere..."
At this moment, Xiao walked in leisurely. He elegantly wiped the food residue from the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief. After hearing Paimon's question, he slowly explained:
"The Lantern Festival is a traditional festival held on the first full moon night of Liyue every year. People release lanterns to commemorate the heroic spirits of the immortals. In the days leading up to it, the whole city is immersed in the joy of the festival. You can go and experience it as... a period of peace after the war."
After finishing the explanation, Xiao waved his hand lightly, and the handkerchief instantly returned to its original state.
He handed the handkerchief to the proprietress, "Here is this."
The proprietress nodded and said, "Okay, leave it there."
Paimon's eyes immediately sparkled, and his voice was full of anticipation: "Sea Lantern Festival? Will there be a lot of delicious food there?"
Su Chen looked at Paimeng with a smile, as if he could see the reflection of all the delicacies she dreamed of through her eyes...
Xiao let out a soft laugh, a laugh that was both humorous and a little helpless.
“Your focus always seems to be on food.”
Xiao's words were light and airy, as if he was pointing out Paimon's little "shortcomings" with a chuckle.
Not to be outdone, Paimon retorted, "Humph, so what! Food is one of life's great pleasures."
Su Chen couldn't help shaking his head as he listened to the conversation between the two. He then turned to Xiao and asked, "What about you? Will you attend?"
Xiao was silent for a moment, and finally said softly: "I still won't participate in the mortal celebration."
After saying this, he slowly walked out of the inn, leaving behind a lonely back.
Obviously, for Xiao, such a festival cannot arouse much interest in him. Perhaps he has deeper loneliness and thoughts in his heart.
"Then let's go and take a look at Liyue Harbor."
Su Chen nodded and made a decision.
He put on the traditional white robe of Liyue given by Ganyu and combed his hair into a high ponytail. This outfit made him look handsome and elegant, unique to Liyue.
When he and Paimon stepped out of the inn together, the little girl in the inn looked at them with shock and envy.

PS: Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and today this book has reached 100 million words. This is the author's second book with 100 million words. Thank you for your support along the way! Thank you very much!
The original height of this book should not have reached this point. It can only be said that it was born at the wrong time. It was originally intended to take the route of a perverted stick hero. Old readers who have read this book before it was revised should know that it was more exciting before. There was no way. Under the leadership of his late wife Douluo, even Ci Yuankun had to make corrections and get ashore.
Fortunately, the author can still continue writing along the previous route, but with fewer details. As long as the author has time, he will supplement the missing details in the full version. Now there are more than ten bonus chapters.
This book will continue to grow, and after writing about all the countries and collecting all the female characters of the original God, please rest assured!
I hope that everyone will continue to support this book in the new year. Thank you all!!!
If you have any good suggestions, you can also say them in the skirt. If they are good ideas, the author will adopt them and write them into the book!
Chapter 356 Ganyu: We must take down Su Chen during this Lantern Festival! (Sea Lantern Festival Special 2)
Liyue takes on a new look during this special festival. The entire city is filled with an atmosphere of joy and peace. It is no longer just a commercial port for trading.
When Su Chen stepped into the busy street, he immediately became the focus of everyone's attention.
"Look, it's the hero who defeated the Whirlpool Demon!"
"Su Chen, over here!"
Xiangling waved her arms, a happy smile on her face, and beckoned to Su Chen.
Paimon stared at the stall of Wanmin Hall. Although the layout was simple, the area was quite spacious. He couldn't help but sighed: "Wow, the stall of Wanmin Hall... is really big!"
At the same time, her eyes flickered with desire for delicious food.
Master Mao showed off his powerful arms and said with a smile: "Haha, of course. For this Lantern Festival, we took out all our secret recipes!"
Xiangling stared at the Xinyue Pavilion and Liuli Pavilion in the distance, and said with determination: "This time, we must let them see that high prices are not everything. Our dishes will be beyond their reach!"
As Suchen and Paimon prepare to leave to enjoy other festival fun, they unexpectedly run into Chongyun and Xingqiu.
"Mr. Su Chen, come and try the 'hot pot' when you have time."
"I'll forget it." Su Chen refused easily, but it did not reduce the friendly atmosphere between them.
At this time, a kind old man came up and handed Su Chen a string of exquisite sugar paintings, which depicted his heroic figure protecting the people in battle.
"Old sir, this is too polite..." Su Chen wanted to refuse with a little embarrassment.
The old man smiled and waved his hand, saying cheerfully: "Oh, you're welcome. Without you, we wouldn't even be able to celebrate the Lantern Festival."
"Please accept this candy painting. It is a form of publicity for me. It is a candy painting that the heroes of Liyue have eaten. Besides, many people will definitely give you gifts today. Just consider this as a token of my appreciation."
……
Paimeng followed Su Chen closely while tasting the sugar painting in her hand. She exclaimed, "It's really lively. There are still three days left of the Lantern Festival and there are already so many people."
Su Chen did not respond directly to Paimon, but just smiled at the citizens who greeted him, his heart filled with warmth for the city he once protected.
"Paimon...never mind, it's nothing." He said softly.
Paimon asked curiously, "Huh? What did you want to say just now?"
"Oh, I just wanted to ask if you like it here?" Su Chen changed the subject.
Paimon nodded without hesitation, "I like it! I like the people and food here!"
Su Chen chuckled and complained, "It seems that your attention is still only focused on food." A smile appeared on his face unconsciously. In such a festive atmosphere, even he, who has always been indifferent, became more amiable.
