Chapter 639

~6 min read 1,078 words

Gu Chen said slowly: "Now the crisis outside Teyvat has been resolved, and I have also rewritten the fate of Teyvat by the way... Sister, you don't need to worry so much anymore. The big stone pressing on your heart can land. Now that you've relaxed, shouldn't you think about other things?"

Focalors, who was lowering her head and feeling her cheeks burning, was stunned.

Is the silly little brother hinting at something?!

After learning that there was nothing to worry about, Focalors felt very relaxed, and hearing the second half...

It's really hard not to think too much!!

Focalors was flustered and couldn't say a word.

Gu Chen had already sat at the tea table at some point, poured a cup of black tea, took a sip, and joked: "Why is sister standing there?"

Focalors came back to her senses, moved her bare feet to the side, and sat down. She had words but no vocabulary; she didn't know what she should say in such an atmosphere.

【Nilou】: Hurry, hurry!! I'm the hurry king!! Can Focalors be brave? Mr. Gu Chen's hint is so obvious!! (Hurry, hurry, hurry)

【Collei】: This video makes me feel anxious! Can't take it anymore!!! I'm going to move the government marriage office to Fontaine for you right now!! (Paimon: Leave it to me muscle version)

【Kaeya】: This Focalors is no good; she actually chickened out at the critical moment. (Tartaglia: If you're weak, practice more)

【Azhdaha】: If you ask me, anyway, these two sleep next to each other every night. Why doesn't Brother Gu just knock her out and make it a done deal? Anyway, I don't think Focalors would refuse; she just can't say it out loud. (Hu Tao: Smirking)

【Yae Miko】: Too rough! There must be a process between young couples!

【Alice】: Exactly, exactly! Support Yae Miko's point of view!

【Raiden Ei】: I think... we can use medicine. (Serious)

【Raiden Shogun】: Huh?

【Raiden Makoto】: Huh?

【Kamisato Ayaka】: So Ei's solution is actually this? (Kamisato Ayaka: Confused)

【Hu Tao】: Very abstract, but it feels very useful! (Hu Tao: Smirking)

【Furina】: Clearly the opportunity is right in front of her, but this Focalors can't grasp it. It would be better if it were me! This is A-Chen's confession to me! (Klee: Good)

【Focalors】: What are you saying, what are you saying... (Sangonomiya Kokomi: Energy drop)

【Kirara】: The main character has appeared, start criticizing! (20 Nahida: Pointing fingers)

【Paimon】: At this time, I think Lumine really needs to take action and give both of them some medicine. (Paimon: Piece of cake)

【Lumine】: Master Baizhu, prepare some medicine and send it to them directly. @【Baizhu】

【Baizhu】: Really? (Pushes glasses)

【Gu Chen】: Against the heavens...

【Focalors】: Is it a bit too absurd? (Scared and shrinks into the corner)

"Why isn't sister talking?"

Gu Chen asked with a smile while holding the teacup.

Focalors twisted her little hands together and said gently: "You feel so different today..."

"Mm-hmm?"

Gu Chen raised an eyebrow, then said: "Having solved the heart-trouble, I'm naturally happy. Converting it proportionally, it probably means sister doesn't have to worry about Fontaine's affairs anymore. Isn't sister happy?"

"Is that so..."

Focalors immediately understood Gu Chen's meaning.

After everything relaxed, Focalors was slightly lost in thought.

She was examining her own heart.

She is a god, and a smart god at that.

In fact, a long, long time ago, she sensed that she might be deeply trapped in a vortex, but she didn't resist it.

Thinking back to the beginning, just after succeeding to the position of Hydro Archon, she was thinking about countermeasures at the bottom of the sea, and finally accidentally discovered that there was a movement in the deep underground, and then entered the Primordial Sea water and found the silly little brother who had just been born and hadn't opened his eyes yet.

From raising a little pet at the beginning to raising a little brat, and then watching him grow up slowly... how come there is suddenly a feeling that she has become a mother?

Focalors reached out and rubbed her cheeks, patting them gently to make herself more awake.

At first, Focalors didn't dare to fantasize about these, because the gap between the two sides was greater than a chasm, just like the whole planet and a grain of dust... completely unequal.

But this stinky brother has been clinging to her since he was a child, and the more he grew, the more presumptuous he became. The occasional silliness also made her not feel how powerful the reincarnation of the Primordial Ancestor was, and the gap in status seemed to become blurred.

After getting along slowly for hundreds of years, Focalors felt that this was not bad.

But today... is it too sudden?!

She didn't have any preparation at all!

Focalors' first thought was not how to refuse, but to work hard to build her own psychology.

Anyway, except for not confirming the relationship and not doing some things that break the bottom line, the relationship between herself and the stinky brother really seems like lovers...

The only obstacle is probably psychological?

Looking up slightly, Focalors saw Gu Chen rubbing his chin and pondering something. She asked instinctively: "What are you thinking about again?"

"Hmm?"

Gu Chen came back to his senses and said: "Oh, I'm thinking about what to eat tonight."

"You're just thinking about this?!" Focalors' eyes widened.

"Yeah, what else?" Gu Chen nodded, then suddenly said meaningfully: "Sister, what do you think I should be thinking about right now?"

Focalors was stunned, her pretty face flushed, and she slapped him indignantly: "Stinky brother, all you know is bullying your sister every day!"

"I'm wronged, my lord!"

Gu Chen raised his hands in surrender.

"Hmph~ What do you want to eat? I'll go buy groceries, and let Neuvillette cook tonight." Focalors stood up and said.

Gu Chen leaned back on the lounge chair, the afternoon sunlight spilling on Focalors' cheeks, allowing him to see the face where the faint blush hadn't faded. After considering it seriously, he said: "I'm not a picky eater; I can eat anything. I'll listen to sister's arrangements."

Focalors knew he would mostly say this, and wasn't surprised. She lifted her feet and walked out.

After leaving the manor, Focalors saw Neuvillette standing on the hillside in the distance with his hands behind his back, and Lumine squatting on the side, gossiping with Paimon, who had just woken up and looked confused.
