Gan Yu greeted Shen He as if nothing had happened.
After talking for a while, Shen He began to prepare the "Dream Travel Technique," lighting the Seven Star Lamp, sitting cross-legged on the bed, closing his eyes, and entering a dream.
Gan Yu closed the novel in her hand and sat up in bed.
She looked at her junior's pink, alluring fingernails painted with nail polish, and a hint of complexity crept onto her otherwise normal expression.
Then, she removed the Ice God's Eye from her body and entered the dream with her junior sister.
She observed it carefully tonight.
Sure enough, it was discovered that something was amiss between Shen He and Mr. Xia.
Not only do the two often exchange knowing smiles, but Shen He also frequently asks Mr. Xia to feed her, and sometimes she even bites his fingers...
Gan Yu silently turned her head away.
"Miss Gan Yu, why is it so quiet tonight?"
"Ah, it's probably because I've been too tired from work this week, I just don't feel any energy..."
"Then why don't you go home and rest, Miss Gan Yu? Don't run around outside with us."
"...That's fine."
Xia Zhi sent Gan Yu back to his consciousness space.
Gan Yu sat at her desk, sighed, turned on her computer, and started playing games.
But for some reason, the games she used to find so fun no longer bring her any joy.
A bit annoying...
The next morning.
Gan Yu was feeling a bit unwell and rubbed her eyes while sitting on the bed.
In contrast, Shen He, though her face remained expressionless, looked to be in excellent health.
After combing their hair and changing their clothes, the two of them went out together.
Gan Yu noticed that her junior sister glanced casually at the door of Mr. Xia's room next door.
In the past, she definitely wouldn't have thought much about it.
But now, she felt that there was something special about this action.
After washing up downstairs, Mr. Xia also got up and went downstairs a while later.
Gan Yu noticed that when her junior sister saw Mr. Xia, her usually cool eyes suddenly brightened.
She silently withdrew her gaze, beginning to consider whether she should continue staying overnight next week.
Then, the Great Compassion Tree King also came over from next door.
Xia Zhi greeted her, "How did you sleep last night?"
"not bad."
"The shop is closed today. You can go out with Zhu Zi and the others to stroll around the streets and buy some clothes or something. Just ask me for the money."
"Yes, thank you, cousin."
"You are welcome."
After breakfast, I drank a cup of tea.
After resting for a while, at ten o'clock, Xia Zhi went into the kitchen again and began to prepare a sumptuous lunch.
The enticing aroma of food slowly began to waft from the kitchen.
The Great Tree King looked towards the kitchen, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
She had seen Xia Zhi's entire life in another world, and knew that he originally didn't have such good cooking skills, but she didn't know what he had gone through later...
She was very curious, but he wouldn't tell her, and she couldn't get an answer.
At eleven o'clock, Yao Yao came over, and as soon as she arrived, she asked the Great Compassion Tree King to play with her.
Yao Yao really liked this new girl, not only because the Great Tree King looked about the same age as her, but also because of the Great Tree King's approachable demeanor.
Yao Yao is the holder of the Grass-type God's Eye, and the Great Tree King is the Grass God. It is only natural that they would be attracted to each other.
Moreover, the Great Tree King knows a lot of things. No matter what question Yao Yao asks, she can answer it. She is simply a perfect little friend.
The Great Tree King was also very willing to play with Yao Yao. She was very willing to teach a child with such a pure heart.
At 11:30, Mr. Zhongli arrived at the store as promised.
"Mr. Xia, I apologize for bothering you."
"Oh, don't bother me. I have something I'd like to ask Mr. Zhongli for help with."
"Oh?"
"To thank Shen He, Ms. Ningguang bought the shop next door and gave it to her. We now want to connect the two shops. Fortunately, the shops are closed for the next two days, so the construction will not affect the customers."
"so……"
"I've heard that the holder of the Geo Elemental Eye is very good at this kind of thing, but it takes a lot of time to post a request at the Adventurers' Guild, so I thought of Mr. Zhongli and would like to ask him for help. Is that alright?"
"It's just a small favor, of course."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Zhongli."
"Do we have to break down this wall?"
"Hmm, it shouldn't affect the stability of the houses on both sides, right?"
"will not."
"That's good."
Zhongli walked over, stretched out his hand, and the Geo-type Eye hanging behind him lit up.
The once-solid walls began to crumble under the influence of the rock element's power.
The girls were quite amazed by the sight.
However, Xia Zhi and the Great Tree King clearly sensed that his Rock-type Eye of God was actually just an ornament, used to deceive others.
The Great Compassion Tree King looked at Zhongli, his eyes becoming slightly puzzled.
Morax...where is your heart of God?
Chapter 236 Miss Ying'er is about to charge
The problem with the wall was quickly resolved.
There is no trace of civil construction on the exterior, making it look as if the two shops were originally connected.
As expected of Prince Yan.
The dusting technique is really good.
I'll definitely contact him again if something like this happens next time.
In this way, the shop can be considered to have been blessed by Lord Yan.
Xia Zhi thanked him, invited Mr. Zhongli to sit down and have some tea, and then went back to the kitchen to cook.
The aroma wafting from the kitchen grew increasingly rich and enticing.
Zhongli took a sip of tea, looking at the Great Compassion Tree King who was chatting and laughing with Yaoyao, a hint of reminiscence in his eyes.
After a while, dinner was served.
A large table was covered with food.
There are local Liyue dishes, as well as famous dishes from another world; there are ordinary ingredients, as well as extraordinary ingredients.
"Thank you for your hard work today, Mr. Zhongli!"
"You're welcome."
Eat more vegetables!
"it is good."
"This fish was bought from Brother Liu this morning, it's very fresh, as are the shrimp. Try some."
"……it is good."
Under the strange gaze of the Great Compassion Tree King, Zhongli ate the fish and then the shrimp without resistance.
Morax...doesn't he dislike seafood?
Is this how you give your cousin face?
The Great Tree King also tried the braised fish and braised prawns.
However... both dishes tasted really great, with not a trace of seafood fishiness.
After lunch, Xia Zhi, Zhong Li, and the Great Compassion Tree King sat together and chatted.
