I'm a male god in Liyue

"That?"

"Actually, what I wanted to ask you wasn't the location of the school's construction, but rather the matter of Miss Ningguang's reconstruction of the Qunyu Pavilion."

"what?"

"I heard that you and Mr. Zhongli were in charge of the construction?"

"Yes, but your question has nothing to do with the school, right?"

"It's related. It's like this, I have a friend... Cousin, what are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing, haha, cousin, please continue..."

"What I mean is, I have a friend who heard that Lord Ningguang was offering a reward for the Mingxia Floating Stone, so he went to the mountains to look for it. He only found it a couple of days ago. Although it's quite big, the reward period has already passed, so he's going to sell the stone to me at a low price."

"!"

"What does Mr. Xia mean?"

"I've thought about it and I think this stone is just in time. Why not build the school in the sky? But this kind of huge project is not something that ordinary people can do. You two happen to have similar experience, so I would like to invite you over tonight to talk."

"..."

Ke Qing hesitated for a moment.

“That’s a good idea. My suggestion is to start construction as soon as possible, while the craftsmen who rebuilt the Jade Pavilion haven’t completely left yet. That will save us a lot of trouble.”

What about compensation?

"The school is not as luxurious as Qunyu Pavilion, so the budget will definitely be much lower. We need to make the design drawings as soon as possible."

"Yes! I finished the design in one night!"

Ke Qing stared blankly at the beautiful design manuscript that Xia Ci had taken out, which resembled a work of art.

"Is this something you drew in one night?"

"Hmm! It's alright, isn't it?"

Ke Qing fell silent.

How about you become the Jade Balance Star?

Keqing and the Great Tree King sat down to discuss the details with the design drawings.

Xia Zhi turned to Zhongli and Ningguang: "Gentlemen, there is one more thing that is troubling me..."

Zhongli sipped his tea: "What is it?"

Xia Zhi said seriously, "This school was jointly funded and built by Miss Ningguang and me. I will serve as the principal and Miss Ningguang will serve as the vice principal. However, the school is still lacking another vice principal."

Ningguang looked at him: "Is Mr. Xia troubled by not being able to find a suitable candidate?"

Xia Zhi nodded: "Yes, I can't see. It's okay for me to just show my name at school and pay money if needed. But if I were to handle all sorts of affairs, I'm afraid it would be very inconvenient."

Zhongli glanced at his black glasses: "From a generally rational point of view, it is indeed somewhat inconvenient."

Xia Zhi continued, "As a member of Tianquan Star, Miss Ningguang is already very busy with official duties every day. She will definitely not have much time to manage school affairs in the future, and will probably only be able to hold a nominal position."

Ningguang said with a hint of helplessness, "Yes, what Mr. Xia said is true."

Xia Zhi discussed: "This school is Liyue's first experimental free school, and with Ningguang's background, it can also be considered an official institution. In my opinion, the other vice principal should preferably be a local of Liyue, not a foreigner."

Ningguang agreed: "That makes a lot of sense."

"The school will be built in the sky based on the Mingxia Floating Stone. Although it will have many advantages in terms of appearance and publicity, and can attract more students, the subsequent maintenance and management of the various buildings of the school will also be a troublesome matter. If another vice principal can have a deeper understanding of architecture, it will be much easier to handle."

"Correct."

"Ideally, it should be the owner of a Geo-elemental Vision, so that if any problems are discovered, they can take care of them themselves."

"Yes."

"This person should also have extensive knowledge, good manners, excellent speech, and good looks, so that our school can look good when they go out."

"Yes."

"Such outstanding people are so hard to find, and they also need to have a lot of free time to manage things at the school..."

"Hmm, someone like that..."

A native of Liyue, holder of the Geo Vision, possessing profound knowledge of architecture, erudite, well-mannered, articulate, and handsome, yet spending all day loitering around doing absolutely nothing...

Zhongli listened to Xia Zhi and Ningguang's conversation and silently put down the cup in her hand.

You might as well just give me your ID card!

Ningguang suddenly laughed and said, "I think Mr. Zhongli would be very suitable."

Xia Zhi seemed to realize something: "Yes, how could I have forgotten about Mr. Zhongli! I wonder what Mr. Zhongli thinks about this matter?"

Zhongli pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "It would be good if I could contribute to the prosperity of Liyue."

"Mr. Zhongli is truly virtuous!"

"It should."

"Then we will ask the vice principal to take good care of the school's construction."

"……Um."

"Diona".

"Hey! Boss, what's up?"

"Go and get that bottle from under the table."

"Ok!"

Xia Zhi took the bottle from Diona and handed it to Zhong Li.

"This is?"

"The original juice of Rainbow Juice. It's hard work on the construction site, Mr. Zhongli, please take this to quench your thirst. However, if Mr. Zhongli wants to give it to ordinary people, please remember to dilute it one more time."

"Okay, thank you for your gift, Mr. Xia."

Zhongli took the bottle.

The three chatted for a while longer, finishing up their discussion about school matters.

Mr. Zhongli was the first to take his leave.

Ningguang said softly, "Mr. Xia, I don't think I slept well last night. My neck feels a little sore when I woke up this morning..."

"Oh? Do you want me to press it for you?"

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

"Come with me."

Ningguang stood up and followed Xia Zhi into the back hall.

A moment later, a strange, faint sound came from inside.

Ke Qing, who was engrossed in discussing the design with Xia Ci, paused for a moment upon hearing this.

What is Ningguang doing in there?

"That's my cousin giving Miss Ningguang a massage, we don't need to worry about it."

"what?"

Is this the massage that Ningguang lingered over?

This sound doesn't seem quite right.

It sounds a bit like the faint voice of a woman coming from a small wooden shed near a construction site at night...

Ke Qing glanced strangely at the entrance to the back hall, then at Bai Shi, whose expression was normal, before lowering her head to continue discussing the details with Xia Ci.

What is this infirmary?

"This is the most amazing thing about the school..."

After a while, Bai Shi also went in for a massage.

This time, the voice that came out was even more trembling than her owner's.

That's so weird.

After some time, Ningguang and Baishi came out together from behind.

Ke Qing noticed that they had all changed their clothes and their hair was wet.

"Did you take a shower?"

"Yes, they used essential oils during the massage. If you don't wash it off, your skin will feel slippery. How's the discussion going?"

"It's been discussed and agreed upon."

"Then let's go back."
