I'm a male god in Liyue

Shen He put away the mahjong tiles on the table: "Senior sister likes to play mahjong?"

"Yeah, I think it's a lot of fun."

"The Feiyun Chamber of Commerce just discussed the mahjong business with the boss. It should be available for sale soon, and then more people will play mahjong."

"Really? But I'm not used to being around strangers. It's fine to hang out with you guys occasionally. By the way, junior sister, you told me last time that Master asked you to deliver a talisman to Ningguang. I just saw the notice today that Qunyu Pavilion is going to be rebuilt."

"Oh."

"Junior sister, aren't you interested in this?"

"not interested."

Shen He spoke calmly; she was only interested in three meals a day now.

Chapter 142 I Just Happen to Know a Little

After dinner, the four of them went for a walk together.

Compared to before, Gan Yu now smiles much more and is very proactive in telling everyone interesting stories that have happened in various corners of the city.

Unlike the unreliable folk tales, Gan Yu's stories are undoubtedly more authentic. After all, she watched the city slowly being built, and many of those stories even happened under her witness.

The origin of the name "Tiger Rock," the background of "Destroying the Stars in a Box," the maximum number of merchant ships that ever docked at the pier, and just how spectacular the scene was back then...

Xia Zhi and Zhu Zi listened with great interest.

Shen He was listening, but her indifferent expression made it impossible to tell whether she was interested in these things or not.

After returning from her walk, Zhu Zi went to the kitchen to boil water as usual.

Gan Yu looked at Xia Zhi and said softly, "Mr. Xia, I've been a bit tired from work these past few days, and I'd like to ask you to give me a massage, is that alright?"

"Of course, is the massage area the same as last time?"

"Ok!"

"I understand. Miss Gan Yu, please go take a bath first. I'll go prepare some incense."

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Xia!"

Xia Zhi smiled and waved his hand, indicating that it was just a small favor and he was happy to help.

About half an hour later, Gan Yu returned after taking a shower and walked into the small back room, where she smelled that comforting incense scent again.

She couldn't help but take a soft breath.

“Miss Gan Yu, please lie down here.”

"it is good."

Gan Yu took off her shoes with practiced ease, lay down on the small bed, closed her eyes, her hair was wet with water droplets, her slightly red face was like a delicate flower petal, and her eyelashes were still trembling slightly, giving her an adorable look that seemed ready to be picked.

In the kitchen, Zhu Zi heard a strange, faint sound coming from inside. She blushed slightly, pursed her lips, and looked puzzled.

These days, the boss is busy cooking and hasn't had time to massage her legs.

She really missed that pleasant and relaxing feeling.

Today is August 24th, and the end of the month is almost here.

Once I get my salary this month, I'll buy my boss a gift first, then buy some Liyue specialties and have Komahoya send them home. After that, I'll buy some other things I want. If I still have extra money, I'll ask my boss to give me a massage, just like Miss Ganyu did...

As she thought about it, Zhu Zi's face turned even redder.

When night fell, Xia Zhi went to bed and entered the dream world.

As usual, he randomly chose a dream bubble and reached out to touch it.

A strange attraction swept over him, and the scenery before Xia Zhi's eyes blurred for a moment before he appeared in the stranger's dream.

Teahouse, stage.

Xia Zhi felt that the scenery in front of her was somewhat familiar.

This looks like the Heyu Tea House.

However, the teahouse was empty at this time, except for a delicate figure in a gorgeous theatrical costume singing on the stage.

Yunjin?

Xia Zhi paused for a moment, feeling somewhat surprised.

He just randomly chose a dream, and it just so happened that he entered Miss Yun Jin's dream?

Moreover, he could now clearly see a silver progress bar hanging on Yun Jin's body on the stage.

Can you progress by interacting in dreams?

Xia Zhi thought for a moment, then chose an empty table to sit down and quietly enjoy Miss Yun Jin's opera performance.

"...Mortal ties are hazy, immortal ties are boundless, family bonds are scattered, and the Crimson Palace invites us..."

This opera is very beautiful. Xia Zhi had never heard it before, which is normal, since he hadn't been to Yu Tea House to listen to Miss Yun Jin perform opera many times.

If it were the Xia Zhi of the past, she probably wouldn't have been able to discern anything from the music; she would have just thought the melody was pleasant and the person was attractive.

But now Xia Zhi has the skill [Art Appreciation], which gives him a high level of appreciation for art. He can not only understand the highlights of the story told in the opera, but also comprehend the subtleties of the lyrics and melody, and appreciate the graceful figure of Yun Jin.

Not only that, he also noticed that Miss Yun Jin's singing at certain turning points in the lyrics was somewhat awkward, and her emotional investment wasn't quite there...

Xia Zhi seemed to understand something.

So, is Ms. Yun Jin currently practicing for a new role?

I think about it every day and dream about it at night.

Perhaps she was so engrossed in working on the new play during the day that she continued to have this dream about practicing the new play at night.

It was precisely because she was practicing a new play that her singing wasn't perfect.

Subconsciously, she didn't want others to hear about her subpar work, which is why she was the only one in the teahouse at that moment.

Good looks, good family background, good talent, and this hardworking quality—no wonder she became a big star.

"...Cause and effect in this mortal world are fleeting and vanish like smoke."

The opera ends here.

Yun Jin took a breather and was about to sing again when she suddenly noticed that there was a guest sitting in the audience.

Huh? There wasn't anyone here just now, was there? When did this customer arrive?

Yun Jin paused for a moment, feeling that this guest looked somewhat familiar, but Xia Zhi wasn't wearing his black-rimmed glasses at the time, so she couldn't recognize him, but she didn't think much of it.

People in a dream tend to easily accept the various illogical aspects of the dream and continue dreaming until the moment they are about to wake up, when they suddenly realize that they were dreaming. But by then, they can no longer remember the details of the dream.

Yun Jin looked at Xia Zhi, who was sitting in the audience with a smile, and after thinking for a moment, walked over to him.

If there were no guests, it would be fine, but now that a guest has appeared and heard her sing, she should at least go and say hello.

"Hello."

"Hello, Mr. Yun."

"Guest...what did you think of the play just now?"

"The play itself is of excellent quality, but Mr. Yun's singing was a bit awkward, and he seemed to need more practice..."

"Yes, there are some parts that I haven't fully grasped yet, I didn't expect you to notice them!"

"For example, in the line 'The mortal bond is hazy, the immortal bond is boundless,' I think it would be better to end it with a falling aria..."

"Let me think about it...it really makes a lot of sense...I didn't expect you to have such a deep understanding of drama!"

"Mr. Yun, you flatter me. I just happen to know a little bit about this."

"Where else do you see a problem? If possible, I'd like to discuss it with you in detail!"

Xia Zhi glanced at the progress bar on Miss Yun Jin's body, which was increasing due to their conversation, and nodded with a smile.

"No problem at all."

The next morning, Xia Zhi woke up from his dream, opened his inventory, and saw a silver treasure chest lying quietly inside.

This is what he saw on Miss Yun Jin's page last night.

He originally thought he would have to wait until he had a chance to get the silver treasure chest in the future, but he was lucky enough to enter Miss Yun Jin's dream last night and had a pleasant conversation with her, which filled up her progress bar in no time.

"Good luck...good luck..."

Xia Zhi muttered to himself, thinking of the skill [Auspicious Omen] that he had obtained from Gan Yu.

What a coincidence.

He had just acquired this skill yesterday afternoon, and last night he happened to enter Miss Yun Jin's dream.

"Looks like... I'll have to give Miss Gan Yu a little something extra this morning... She seemed to really enjoy the shark fin mushrooms last time, so I'll buy another one..."

That said, Ms. Gan Yu has always been a vegetarian, yet she has such a great figure; you really wouldn't know it if it weren't for the massage.

Xia Zhi took the silver treasure chest out of his inventory and selected to open it.
