"It looks like lipstick."
"This is what I just made, with some minor improvements. Would you like to try it?"
"it is good."
Shen He picked up the red lipstick and, mimicking a scene she had seen in a movie, gently applied it to her lips.
Then, she pursed her lips slightly.
This gesture feels so feminine.
"Boss, how's it going?"
"good-looking."
"It's a little sweet."
"Right? I added honey to it, and I used Ying'er's recipe."
"Ying'er is very capable."
"She really has a talent for spices. Now that the weather is cold, lips tend to get dry. If you apply lip balm every day, you won't have this problem."
"Then I'll take this one."
"Row."
"Boss, it seems there are no similar products for sale in the Liyue market."
"No, but there are folk remedies that involve applying oils to the lips for prevention, such as lard or fish oil."
"That smells really strong."
"Yes."
"Then this lipstick must have great market potential, right?"
"Yes, cosmetics. I plan to mention it to Miss Ningguang tomorrow afternoon to see if we can facilitate a collaboration between her and Ying'er. After all, there are many wealthy people in Liyue, especially the wealthy women in Yujingtai. They would definitely be willing to spend a lot of money to buy such a sweet and fragrant lipstick."
"If she's willing to cooperate, then Ying'er will become rich too."
"Haha, I hope she'll quit her job again once she has money."
"probably not."
"Okay, okay, let's go to sleep."
"Ah."
Then there is no more then.
If I had to say something, the lipstick has a soft, pleasant scent.
The next morning, after teaching Shen He a set of marksmanship techniques, Xia Zhi got out of bed, went over and opened the window.
A cold wind blew in my face.
Xia Zhi immediately closed the window again and went back to bed to continue holding Shen He.
It's still the most comfortable place to be in a warm bed with a [heat talisman] attached.
"It's so cold outside."
"boss."
"Ok?"
"I want to draw a few more [Heat Charms] and give them to everyone to use."
"That's a great idea. I support Professor Shen He."
"Say it again."
"Teacher Shen He..."
Then there is no more then.
To be honest, Shen He, as the teacher, gave him some guidance on the correct way to hold a pen.
Afterwards, the two embraced and talked for a while. Shen He got off the bed, took out the tools from the hairpin, and began to make talismans on the table.
The [Heat Charm] is one of the simpler types.
For Shen He, making them was not difficult at all; in just three minutes, several brand-new [Heat Charms] were completed.
Xia Zhi picked up the white jade comb and naturally began to comb Shen He's hair.
"Boss, construction officially started today."
"Yes, after breakfast, I'll need you to deliver the Mingxia Floating Stone over there."
"It's not hard."
"Send some instant noodles over as well. I made a lot yesterday afternoon. The food at the construction site is bad, so we can't let Miss Keqing and Vice Principal Zhongli go hungry."
"Ok."
"Oh, by the way, take two boxes of this tea canister on the table with you too."
"Is this [Silver Thread Dew]?"
"Yes, but the older kind works better."
"I see."
After getting ready, the two went downstairs to wash up.
When Zhu Zi and Diona returned from buying groceries, they were indeed talking about the cold weather.
"It's gotten colder today, it's so chilly outside!"
"Yes, I woke up from the cold last night and had to get up to put on another blanket."
"Me too!"
Only Qiqi kept her head down and silently wiped the table; she was the least afraid of the cold.
Shen He then took out the hot talismans he had made that morning and distributed them to everyone.
"Put this talisman on the bed board, and you won't be cold at night."
"Wow, thank you, Senior Shen He!"
"Shen He, that's fantastic!"
Qi Qi was taken aback when Shen He handed her a [Heat Charm] as well. She shook her head and said, "Thank you, but I don't need it."
Shen He said earnestly, "Everyone has one, you can keep it as a souvenir."
Qiqi hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took it, saying softly, "Thank you."
Shen He replied softly, "You're welcome," and handed the last talisman to Xia Ci.
Xia Ci gave her a half-smile: "Does my cousin have any?"
Shen He remained calm and said, "Of course."
Xia Ci nodded, accepted the gift, and said thank you.
I never expected Shen He to be able to win people's hearts!
--
Work started early this morning at the construction site.
Zhongli and Keqing stood together on a high place, watching the bustling scene of plastering and discussing the next construction plan.
"The basic work arrangement is the same as the last time we rebuilt the Qunyu Pavilion. We will divide the construction of the school into two parts. Before the floating stone that Mr. Xia mentioned arrives, we will first build the base of the school on the ground."
"Once the floating stone is ready, we'll attach it to the base, allowing the semi-finished school to float to the same height as the mountaintop. The subsequent construction work will be completed from above. Once everything is ready, we'll retract the iron chains, letting the school fly to its proper height..."
Zhongli nodded: "Mm."
Ke Qing continued, "The school is different from Qunyu Pavilion; it doesn't need to be so luxurious. The design is also simpler. Xia Ci has already told me the specific details. The main thing is that the teaching building needs to be closely supervised..."
Ke Qing was talking about the key points of the school's construction when she suddenly heard a commotion of exclamations from the workers below.
"Look! What's that...?"
"It looks like a mountain!"
"The mountain is flying over!"
Ke Qing couldn't help but look up and was also stunned for a moment.
Within her field of vision, she could see what appeared to be a small mountain flying towards her in the distance…
"No! It's not the mountain that's flying; there seems to be a figure below it!"
"It looks like a woman's figure!"
"I remember now! She's the one who defeated Ba Che at sea!"
"I heard she's a descendant of immortals!"
