"Why is she on the ship?"
Keqing lowered her sword, her voice still fierce as she asked.
However, by this time, she had calmed down.
Just Qin Yu's sister?
Realizing this, she actually felt a sense of relief.
Great, Qin Yu doesn't have children yet.
In that case...
Keqing quickly shook her head again.
What does it have to do with her whether Qin Yu has children or not?!
"Mm, this child... is looking for her mother."
Qin Yu's forehead was beaded with sweat as he explained cautiously.
With the door closed in this room, it was hot.
Not to mention a warm, white-haired loli clinging to him.
Speaking of which, was she so hot just now because he and...?!
Qin Yu quickly dismissed the dangerous thought.
This matter must not be known to Mrs. Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.
No, Mrs. has now been upgraded to Godmother.
How strange.
"Looking for her mother?"
Keqing was a little confused by the remark, but she still came to Qin Yu's bedside.
She bent down and looked at the little loli in front of her.
Not his biological sister?
But she's really cute.
"Hello."
Nahida blinked her emerald-green eyes, extended her small hand, and smiled.
Her soft voice was filled with healing gentleness, easily winning people over.
Thanks to the fusion of Qin Yu's and Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's powers, green leaves sprouted, and finally bore fruit.
A new seedling with extreme plasticity was born.
This seedling then began to form a body due to Nahida's consciousness.
It was a clone that existed independently of the main body.
This clone was not an eternal entity either.
The seed sprouted and grew.
When the power in the green leaves was brewed.
Would it grow into a new great tree, or merge with the earth and return to its origin?
Nahida felt this magical power and seemed to have a guess.
The truth would take time to verify.
But at least now, her consciousness could travel the world in another way.
She could also communicate with others normally.
Most importantly, she could touch and feel Qin Yu's presence.
It wasn't a dream.
This should... also be considered a form of "freedom," right?
Freedom given by both Qin Yu and Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.
This feeling...
Nahida thought of Qin Yu's guess.
Greater Lord Rukkhadevata was her mother.
Was this the care of a mother?
So Qin Yu was her...
Father?
No, no.
The little God of Grass quickly negated this inference.
If Qin Yu was the father, then he and Greater Lord Rukkhadevata would be husband and wife.
And Qin Yu was her brother...
?
The little God of Grass fell into thought.
Suddenly she felt something was wrong.
She wasn't Qin Yu's sister.
And Greater Lord Rukkhadevata wasn't necessarily her mother.
Qin Yu and Greater Lord Rukkhadevata would not become husband and wife.
Hoo... she finally sorted it out.
But her intuition told Nahida that she was still wrong...
What could it be?
"Hello, little sister Nahida."
Keqing also showed a gentle smile and said softly.
She slowly extended her hand and held Nahida's small hand.
It was soft and tender, very comfortable.
"Hello, sister."
Nahida felt Keqing's kindness and smiled sweetly.
"!"
Keqing's hand trembled slightly, and her eyes lit up.
That was the radiance of motherhood.
She felt the softest part of her heart being touched.
She couldn't help but glance at Qin Yu again.
This bad guy was so handsome, children inheriting his looks would also be as cute as Nahida.
In that case, choosing a equally beautiful girl would be important...
"Cough, cough."
Keqing turned her face away as if nothing had happened and coughed lightly.
Qin Yu: "?"
What was this feeling of suddenly being thought of?
This Keqing cat wouldn't want to bite him, would she?
"Eh...?"
The little God of Grass blinked her pure big eyes, her small face puzzled.
Keqing's emotions touched her blind spot of wisdom.
Or rather, most things related to Qin Yu were Nahida's blind spots.
It seemed she needed to practice more with Qin Yu in the future.
"Hmph, dummy."
Keqing snorted and sheathed her sword.
"Okay, I'm a dummy."
Qin Yu smiled, not thinking too much about it.
The misunderstanding was temporarily resolved.
Qin Yu had avoided a certain terrible outcome.
He also had some understanding of how Nahida suddenly appeared by his side.
A clone born from sprouting green leaves...
Admittedly, telepathy was a convenient ability.
When there was an idea to share, the other party could know it instantly.
It was like being of one mind.
"You're still smiling!"
Seeing the cheerful Qin Yu, Keqing puffed out her cheeks.
Her continuously tense nerves finally relaxed.
Great, Qin Yu was okay.
She had been worried to death, thinking he had been eroded by resentment on the island before...
Thinking of this, for some reason she became angry.
Keqing suddenly raised her sword hilt and hit Qin Yu on the head.
Bang!
"Keqing, you don't have to hit me that hard."
Qin Yu scratched his head, helpless.
He was a patient just now, after all.
"You suddenly collapsed, do you know how worried I was!"
Keqing looked at Qin Yu's helpless expression and was furious.
She sat by the bed and simply hugged her sword, refusing to speak.
Keqing cat didn't want to talk to Qin Yu anymore.
"Keqing..."
Qin Yu blinked and quietly reached out his hand.
He successfully grabbed Keqing's small hand.
He also intertwined their fingers tightly.
"Let go."
Keqing puffed out her cheeks and struggled symbolically a couple of times.
She definitely couldn't wrench free from Qin Yu.
Keqing cat glared at Qin Yu, then let him hold her hand.
There was still a child here...
"?"
Nahida showed a hint of confusion.
She was overjoyed inwardly but had to refuse outwardly.
Why was that?
"Thank you for taking care of me, Keqing."
"Hmph, no need to thank me."
Keqing puffed out her cheeks in response.
Her tone had softened considerably.
"So..."
Qin Yu smiled and moved his body slightly.
"?"
Keqing sensed something and moved aside.
She suddenly regretted sitting by Qin Yu's bed.
Wasn't this sending herself into the trap?
But obviously, Qin Yu had planned this long ago.
He leaned closer to Keqing's ear.
"!"
Keqing's delicate body trembled.
Qin Yu smiled and tugged at his already changed clothes.
"Keqing, who changed my clothes?"
"...I don't know."
Keqing cat entered a state of overheating.
"So that's how it is."
"You, you're not allowed to laugh!"
After a round of playful scuffles.
"Do you know you were wrong!"
Qin Yu smiled and surrendered, "I was wrong."
Keqing cat snorted and picked up the medicinal soup from the table again.
"Open your mouth, I'll feed you."
Keqing cat said fiercely.
Qin Yu blinked and obediently opened his mouth.
The two seemed to have forgotten the white-haired loli.
Nahida sat quietly by the bed, watching Keqing.
"So this is how one interacts with Qin Yu."
The little God of Grass indicated that she understood everything.
"Mm, right."
Qin Yu asked while accepting the food:
"Regarding Inazuma City..."
"I told Sister Candace... cough, wait for my news."
She almost blurted out "Sister."
Damn that bet.
Keqing stuffed a spoonful of soup into Qin Yu's mouth. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Qin Yu nodded, relieved.
He was just afraid she would do something impulsive.
Don't forget, that was a Fatui Harbinger.
"I wonder if anything has happened in Inazuma City."
Qin Yu thought to himself.
There shouldn't be anything.
...
Inazuma City, Tenshukaku.
"Phew... The Yashiro Commission's work is finally..."
Beneath the solemn great hall, Kamisato Ayaka let out a long sigh.
Finally, she could get off work.
She heard that Qin Yu was returning to Inazuma City soon.
Then she could...
Before she could report to the majestic figure on the high seat.
"You've worked hard."
Ei said casually, as if she were diligently reading a memorial.
"Then, General, may I...?"
"There's still a batch of memorials, please process them."
Ei waved her hand.
The unspoken meaning was that she had to work overtime today.
"Yes."
Kamisato Ayaka looked confused.
The General seemed to be deliberately making her and Hiiragi Senryou work overtime...
Why was that?
Just then, Ei slowly stood up.
She sensed that the fleet was returning.
"General, where are you going?"
Kamisato Ayaka asked subconsciously as she watched Ei about to leave.
Overtime, and she was the only one?
"To visit Inazuma City."
Ei murmured, a slight smile on her lips.
Unfortunately, no one was there to appreciate her beauty.
She would welcome Qin Yu back as the Raiden Shogun.
"?"
Kamisato Ayaka's beautiful eyes widened slightly.
The General who had stayed in Tenshukaku for hundreds of years...
Was going out?
...
Liyue Harbor, the commercial port under the jurisdiction of the Kanjou Commission.
"I have to work overtime... I won't be able to pick up Xiao Yu."
Hiiragi Senryou shook her head with some disappointment.
"Kanjou Commission, may I ask..."
An official rushed over to ask for a decision.
Hiiragi Senryou responded with a smile, handling matters methodically.
In this way, she unknowingly arrived at the shore.
Her visit this time was also with the intention of inspection.
"Mm, is this here..."
Just as Hiiragi Senryou was contemplating future development plans.
Suddenly, she noticed something.
A figure was floating on the sea.
It seemed to be a girl drifting by, holding onto a broken wooden board.
In the sunlight, her golden hair was so striking.
"What's over there?"
Hiiragi Senryou's eyes widened slightly.
"Help, help me—"
Suddenly, a white floating sprite emerged from the water.
She noticed Hiiragi Senryou on the shore and yelled desperately.
"Save Lumine!"
