Xin Yan sang passionately, her new song was full of passion and motivation.
The crowd was excited, and there was applause and cheers.
During a concert filled with laughter and joy, a fan walked through the crowd excitedly, his eyes sparkling with anticipation and admiration, and asked, "Ms. Xin Yan, can you share the inspiration behind this song?"
Xin Yan, with a gentle smile on his face and the light of memories in his eyes, replied kindly: "This song was born thanks to a friend. He took me to visit Mondstadt that time. The scenery, culture, and unique atmosphere there gave me endless inspiration. So, this song was born."
In the midst of this heartwarming exchange, Xiao appeared silently at the edge of the party like a ghost in the night.
Although his appearance was not eye-catching, he carried an aura that could not be ignored.
"Xin Yan, have you arrived?" Xiao's voice was low and magnetic, breaking the noise around him.
Xin Yan turned around and nodded to Xiao, while raising his own question: "Well, I'm here. Zhongli, where's Su Chen? Why hasn't he shown up yet?"
Xiao frowned slightly, seeming to be confused by this question as well: "Where did he go?"
At this moment, Keqing elegantly placed the wine glass in her hand on the table. Her usually calm and resolute eyes now revealed a hint of displeasure: "Did Su Chen go on a date with Ganyu again? It seems that all of us who fight side by side on a daily basis have been marginalized."
On the other side of the venue, Ningguang stood quietly by the window, her eyes cast towards the distant Liyue Harbor, as if she was pondering some profound question.
At this time, a female secretary walked quietly behind her and reported respectfully and softly: "Ms. Ningguang, all preparations are ready."
"Okay, let's get started."
As Ningguang's voice fell, the entire Liyue Harbor suddenly darkened. The noisy crowd gradually quieted down, and all eyes were focused on the sea.
"Oh, the Lantern Festival is about to begin, right?"
Yingmei watched the changes around her excitedly, looking around curiously.
"Yes, there is such a ceremony every year during the Sea Lantern Festival. Did you see that huge deer? It is a sea lantern transformed from Master Yixiao Daotian, symbolizing light and hope."
Xingqiu explained as he picked up the teacup and sipped gently, "Just wait and see what happens next. This festival has its own unique charm compared to other worlds."
“It’s amazing, the traditions and festivals here are full of stories and meaning.”
Yingmei sighed, her eyes drawn to the sea lanterns that were about to be lit. The entire Liyue Harbor was about to regain its prosperity and beauty in the light.

At the other end, Ganyu leaned against Su Chen, feeling his warmth.
"Su Chen, it's a bit cold." Gan Yu said softly, trembling slightly.
Su Chen smiled, stretched out his hands and hugged Gan Yu tighter in his arms, at the same time gently placed her legs on his thighs and hugged her tightly.
"Is this warm enough?"
"Well, it's much warmer." Ganyu's voice was gentle and satisfied.
"Look over there, the Sky Lantern is about to rise into the sky."
Ganyu raised her head, her eyes following the glowing deer-shaped sky lantern that gradually lit up, and she couldn't help but sigh.
"That is the symbol of Xiao's closest companion, Master Yixiaodaotian."
Su Chen felt a little sad and wondered why Xiao didn't show up.
At this moment, the two of them silently watched the most brilliant sky lantern, which bloomed with dazzling brilliance in the night sky.
The deer-shaped sky lanterns that seemed to have life danced on the water, then flew into the night sky, hovering over every street in Liyue Harbor.
"Paimeng, is this really the Sky Lantern? Xingqiu, are you sure this is the Sky Lantern?" Yingmei was stunned and shocked by this magical Sky Lantern.
"Little girl, just enjoy it. This sky lantern is a traditional art of Liyue that has been around for hundreds of years."
As the fairy deer flew past, countless sky lanterns lit up one after another and gradually rose towards the sky.
The onlookers all made their wishes quietly with a pious heart.
Su Chen and Gan Yu stood side by side, watching the sky lantern fly into the vast sea of stars.
Finally, the fairy deer seemed to have exhausted its last bit of strength and rushed rapidly towards the center of the sky.
"Boom!" Clusters of brilliant fireworks bloomed in the sky, casting their brilliance on everyone's face.
At this moment, Su Chen held Gan Yu's hand tightly and witnessed the beauty of this moment together.
"Ganyu, what's your wish?"
"Secret." Ganyu smiled gently, with a hint of mischief in her eyes.
"You are quite good at keeping people in suspense." Su Chen shook his head and chuckled, his eyes gentle.
On this quiet night, Ganyu approached Su Chen quietly with a playful smile. The distance between them disappeared instantly and they depended on each other closely.
"Su Chen..." Gan Yu's voice was soft and reserved, like a whisper in the night breeze.
"What's the matter?" Su Chen responded, his tone full of tenderness and concern.
"Actually, I..." Gan Yu hesitated to speak, as if there were thousands of words surging in her heart.
"No need to say, I understand." Su Chen said softly, his eyes full of affection, as if they could reach Gan Yu's heart directly.
At that moment, their eyes met, and the exchange of emotions was louder than any words. Their smiles revealed full of happiness and sweetness.
"Ganyu, my heart belongs to you." Su Chen declared solemnly, his voice full of determination and love.
After hearing this, Ganyu's cheeks flushed slightly, and her eyes sparkled with shyness and happiness.
"Does this answer mean that you accept me?" Su Chen asked half-jokingly, his eyes full of anticipation.
Ganyu did not answer with words, but gently pressed her lips against Su Chen's, using this tender kiss to seal their vows to each other.
……
Just then, a Qianyan Army soldier who was responsible for maintaining order was talking to a little girl next to him.
"Okay, Xiaofang, make a wish to the starry sky."
The Qianyan Army soldier next to him encouraged softly.
"I hope……"
Xiaofang jumped up and down with great enthusiasm, her voice loud and full of anticipation:
“May our Liyue prosper forever and maintain morality!”
"Su Chen, thank you so much for helping me today. Otherwise, I might be embarrassed."
What Ganyu mentioned was the little episode that happened between her and Yingmei.
Su Chen just smiled lightly, indicating that he shouldn't take it to heart.
"Sister Ganyu, you seem lonely, why don't you make more friends?"
Paimeng, who had caught up with Su Chen at some point in time, suddenly appeared from behind Su Chen and said these words, making the atmosphere subtle.
Su Chen quickly reached out and covered Paimeng's mouth, trying to stop Paimeng from continuing.
"In fact, my friends are all gone. They turned into dust, protecting me and the land under my feet. After so many years, I almost forgot how to interact with others."
Ganyu's voice was low, with a hint of sadness.
"I'm sorry, Sister Ganyu, I..." Su Chen opened his mouth to apologize.
"It's okay. I'm used to being alone. If there's nothing else, I'll go back first. Thank you so much for today."
After saying that, Ganyu turned and walked towards Yuehai Pavilion.
She looked back at Su Chen, her eyes full of sadness and regret, and her steps seemed unusually heavy.
"Wait for me, Ganyu."
Su Chen called softly, causing Ganyu, who was about to leave, to pause slightly.
"Come walk with me to the beach. As a friend, I sincerely invite you."
He reached out and gently grasped Ganyu's wrist.
Ganyu turned around, the tears in her eyes sparkling in the moonlight.
"Su Chen... I, it's okay for me to be alone. You don't have to..."
Her voice became increasingly quiet and almost inaudible.
"How could that be? How can I feel at ease leaving you alone?"
Su Chen's voice was soft and his eyes were warm and firm.
Ganyu's cheeks were lightly flushed, she bit her lip gently, and finally whispered: "Then, let's go to the beach in Liyue, okay? Su Chen."
"Of course, let's go." Su Chen replied with a smile.
"us……"
Ganyu silently recited this word in her heart and felt unprecedented warmth and companionship, as if the long-lasting loneliness and coldness were relieved at this moment.
The two of them strolled together on the bustling streets of Liyue, with fireworks rising all around them and the performances of street artists attracting attention. The ancient storytelling sounds and modern street performances were intertwined, forming a vivid picture of the fusion of Liyue's thousand-year-old culture and modern civilization.
Gan Yu held Su Chen's hand tightly as they walked through this bustling environment, her face filled with unprecedented happiness and satisfaction.
Although she had walked these streets alone countless times, she always felt lonely and out of place in this world during those times.
Now, it seemed that for the first time, the Guardian of Liyue truly felt the warmth of companionship.
Suddenly, a slight gurgling sound seemed particularly abrupt in the bustling street, and Su Chen soon noticed it.
He turned around and saw Ganyu's face was as red as a ripe apple because of the occasional growling of her stomach.

Chapter 364 Ganyu: Why don't you continue? ~ (Sea Lantern Festival Special 10)
"Su Chen, my stomach seems to... seems to be protesting..."
Ganyu spoke softly, seeming a little embarrassed.
"Then let's quickly find something delicious to solve the problem."
They soon stopped at a stall that looked quite tempting, and Ganyu's eyes lit up because it was filled with all kinds of snacks that she loved.
She glanced at Su Chen secretly and found that he was pretending to look into the distance casually, as if he was trying to remain calm.
"Oh, it's Lady Ganyu visiting our shop. Is she here to check our hygiene standards?"
The stall owner asked with a smile on his face.
"Today, Miss Ganyu is here to enjoy life with her friends."
Su Chen took over the conversation without giving Ganyu a chance to speak. The stall owner heard the implication of his words and asked half-jokingly.
"Which friend?"
"It's me..." Gan Yu was eager to answer, but was interrupted by Su Chen.
"my girlfriend."
Although Su Chen's voice was not loud, it was clearly heard around him, and the crowd around him suddenly became excited.
"Lady Ganyu actually has a boyfriend? This is the first time I've heard of it!"
"Isn't that the legendary traveler? Miss Ganyu has a very unique vision."
Ganyu was a little confused by Su Chen's sudden "declaration" for a moment. After she came to her senses, she reached out to pinch Su Chen's cheek in frustration, and at the same time she stepped on her feet unconsciously, feeling both embarrassed and angry.
"I was wrong. I won't do it again next time. At least give me some face in front of others..."
Su Chen's mischief made Ganyu's cheeks instantly blush unprecedentedly, like the brightest star in the night sky of Liyue, attracting more enthusiastic applause and cheers from all around.
"Here, your snacks."
The stall owner handed over the fragrant snacks with a smile, his eyes full of mischief, as if to say: "Enjoy your sweet time."
"Go away, stop watching, give them some space."
He deliberately spoke loudly to the people around him, and slowly, the crowd dispersed, leaving behind this pair of "Liyue's new loves."
