Chapter 336

~7 min read 1,228 words

After the simple and innocent Keqing believed Luo Li for half an hour.

She could only lean against him, weak all over, letting the other party pick her up and rush toward the bedroom.

"If you can't drink, don't drink so much; you almost sank in the pool."

Luo Li looked helplessly at Keqing, whose eyes were hazy and whose face was flushed; the young girl was slightly drunk, and her thinking was probably not clear.

"I didn't, I can still hold on!"

"Alright, alright, stop acting tough."

Because he was holding her in a bridal carry, Luo Li pinched her plump, soft thigh to show his dissatisfaction.

Keqing kicked him with her "golden lotus" feet, her words carrying a tone of being spoiled: "I can still drink! You... you put me down!"

Fine, her mouth is truly stubborn.

Luo Li ignored her weak resistance and carried Keqing to the master bedroom complex of the massive residence.

Due to the huge footprint, the master bedroom alone was over two hundred square meters.

"What a corrupt capitalist."

Sighing, Luo Li lowered his head slightly to look at Keqing’s current posture.

Perhaps because she was drunk, the young girl had lost her usual shyness, her hazy big eyes staring at him, not moving for a single moment.

"With such a big place, didn't you, who manages the land, get yourself a back door?"

The Liyue the Liyue Qixing each manage different departments; Keqing is responsible for land and some related industries.

For example, the mining industry, glass industry, and The Chasm, which extend from land, are actually managed by her.

"Stop looking down on people; although I don't have as much money as Ningguang, I'm not that far behind."

She didn't forget to refute even while drunk, but Luo Li completely believed Keqing’s words.

Before being the rulers of the country, the Liyue the Liyue Qixing were also the seven biggest merchants in Liyue; the money and resources they controlled would probably make anyone who knew about it sigh in amazement.

"Got it, got it, be quiet."

She usually didn't talk much, but now she had endless things to say.

Luo Li shook his head slightly and soon returned to her bedroom with Keqing, putting down the bath towel she was wrapped in.

The young girl was already muddled, and after returning to a familiar place, she immediately closed her eyes; plus, she trusted the person beside her very much, so she fell asleep peacefully, not caring about the bath towel that had loosened due to the lack of restraint.

Luo Li took a look at the beautiful sight of Keqing, but although he appreciated it, he didn't do anything else.

If he were to do something, he would at least wait until she was clear-headed.

"Too lazy to go to the guest room; I'll just make do for the night here."

Saying this, Luo Li moved Keqing slightly to the side and then lay down himself.

The moment he lay down, for some reason, Keqing clung to him like she was grabbing a pillow, muttering lines that couldn't be heard clearly.

It was a pity that he hadn't brought the mirror artifact from Inazuma, otherwise he would have really liked to record this scene and show it to Keqing tomorrow.

"Well then, good night, A-Qing."

Lowering his head to whisper to Keqing, who was snuggled against his neck, Luo Li flicked his finger to extinguish the lights in the room.

…………

One night passed!

When the next day's sun rose from the end of the Sea of Clouds, Yujing Terrace and Feiyun Slope gradually regained their vitality.

Sunlight shone through the open window and the thin screen, into the inner room, quietly expelling the darkness that had filled the room.

Inside the residence, no one knew when it started, but light footsteps came from outside the master bedroom.

Immediately afterward, there were whispers of maids communicating with each other, and vaguely, lines like "still sleeping," "two pairs of shoes," and "it's that man" drifted over.

The voices mixed with surprise and curiosity were as ethereal as smoke, not very clear.

Then the maids hurried away, and the sounds gradually disappeared.

Inside the master bedroom!

Lying on the bed, Keqing was gradually awakened by these faint noises.

The moment she was awakened, the young girl was very dissatisfied for a moment.

Because she had never slept so soundly, the warmth coming from beside her made her unable to help but want to be immersed in it from now on, completely unwilling to leave.

"I really want to sleep a little longer."

Since becoming one of the the Liyue Qixing, this was the first time Keqing had the thought of sleeping in; usually at this time, she would have already gotten up and headed to the Ministry of Civil Affairs for a new day of work.

"What's going on today? Something seems different from before."

Her body, which went against her habits, made Keqing feel something was wrong, and then her mind gradually became clear, and her reason slowly recovered.

Her amethyst-like eyes opened, and the pitch-black perspective was filled with light.

What entered Keqing’s eyes was a handsome face filled with demonic beauty.

Like a curse bestowed by heaven, a magic that made all members of the opposite sex fall in love with the other party.

Staring blankly at this face for a long while, until a certain moment, she suddenly reacted.

Wait, why was she lying in Luo Li’s arms?

Her eyes widened quite a bit in an instant; Keqing was a little shocked, but didn't dare to move and wake him up.

At this moment, she was leaning against Luo Li, completely immersed in his embrace in an unguarded posture.

Recalling why it had become like this, her brain quickly played back all the memories of last night.

A moment later, Keqing understood everything.

Although she was drunk, her memory was still quite well-preserved, and there were no gaps.

While realizing this, Keqing didn't break free from the embrace at the first moment; instead, she followed her instincts and continued to lean against him with peace of mind, enjoying the feeling of being held.

Gazing at this face that was still sleeping, a few more smiles appeared in the young girl’s eyes, and even the corners of her mouth lifted slightly, as if she were quite satisfied with this scene.

If she could, she hoped to stay a little longer.

(Money Zhao) Unfortunately, she always had to get up to handle affairs.

Considering this, Keqing forcibly severed the reluctant emotions, gently broke free from the embrace, turned over his body, and got up to change clothes.

However, a few minutes later, the usual Yuheng appeared in the room again.

Twin tails, black silk, a cold and decisive temperament, a light dress.

All of which proved that Keqing had entered work mode.

But before leaving, she returned to the bedside again, looking at Luo Li’s appearance, hesitating for a long while, not knowing how many psychological battles she had gone through.

Finally, Keqing made up her mind, leaned down, pecked him on the lips, and then immediately fled in a panic like someone who had stolen food and was afraid of being caught.

Almost the moment Keqing left the room, Luo Li opened his eyes with a playful smile.
