~5 min read 864 words

Jiang Yan brought Little Beidou to the bathroom.

After explaining how to use it, Jiang Yan filled the bath tub with hot water for Little Beidou, prepared a clean towel, and then left the bathroom.

Little Beidou stood there somewhat dazed; clearly, she had not yet come to her senses.

You see, in the past, Little Beidou could only take cold showers because there were no conditions for hot water.

Let alone new clothes and steaming hot meals.

So, everything happening before her eyes made Little Beidou feel dazed, as if she were dreaming.

She wouldn't even dare to dream such a beautiful dream.

Following the method Jiang Yan taught, Little Beidou carefully entered the bath tub.

The warm water brought waves of comfort, causing Little Beidou to exhale involuntarily.

Mist rose, the warm mist wetting Little Beidou's hair; waves of heat caressed her cheeks, drawing a flush of red.

Whether from the heat or something else, Little Beidou suddenly reached out and rubbed her eyes.

She has a Master now; from now on, she will no longer have to wander.

The feeling of not having to wander anymore...

It's so good.

Because she wandered for too long, Little Beidou is extremely sensible.

After soaking for only a short while, Little Beidou scrubbed all the dirt off her body with the hot water, then quickly stepped out.

At this moment, Little Ganyu returned.

"Ah, why did you wash so quickly?"

Little Ganyu looked at Little Beidou in surprise; she had only been out for about fifteen minutes, yet Little Beidou was already done washing?

"Why did you run out without drying your hair?"

Seeing Little Beidou's wet hair, Little Ganyu frowned, quickly walked over, and picked Little Beidou up.

Placing Little Beidou on her own round lap, Little Ganyu took a relatively dry towel and gently dried Little Beidou's hair.

"Running out with wet hair makes you prone to catching a cold."

Afterwards, after drying her hair, Little Ganyu changed Little Beidou into new clothes.

Little Beidou looked at her new clothes; suddenly wearing clothes made of such soft fabric felt very unfamiliar to her.

Little Beidou herself is not bad-looking; after washing her dirty face, her skin is Bai Xi and her features are well-proportioned.

She can be said to be a little beauty in the making, just like Little Ningguang.

Such a cute toddler, especially after putting on new clothes, would make anyone think she is adorable.

"So cute!"

Little Ganyu joyfully picked up Little Beidou and rubbed against her Bai Xi little face repeatedly.

Indeed, women really have no resistance to cute things.

Little Beidou ate her dinner very quickly; she worried that if her table manners were too ugly or she ate too much, her Master's wife would dislike her.

Seeing this, Jiang Yan said nothing; he thought Little Beidou was just a bit tired from the day, so he took her upstairs to choose a room.

The second floor of Jiang Yan's house is very large, with a total of six or seven rooms.

Little Ningguang stays over occasionally, one room is used by Jiang Yan to grow flowers and plants, and another is the room for Jiang Yan and Little Ganyu.

Little Beidou originally wanted to choose the smallest room to live in.

She is not greedy; having a home to return to is already a very happy thing.

Perhaps because she wandered for too long, Little Beidou does everything very carefully.

But after Jiang Yan showed her around, she discovered that every room here is very large.

And they are all the same size.

Because this house was constructed by Jiang Yan using Wood Release, he simply made all the room sizes exactly the same.

Finally, Little Beidou chose a room next to Jiang Yan's.

Jiang Yan did not intervene the whole time; Little Beidou had just arrived, and she does many things very carefully.

He knew this was caused by unfamiliarity and lack of habit.

But it doesn't matter.

Time will heal everything.

"Good, in that case, this room is yours."

Jiang Yan gently rubbed Little Beidou's little head.

"Rest early; the bedding on the bed is brand new."

Little Beidou nodded vigorously.

"Mm-hmm, Brother Jiang Yan, you rest early too!"

After speaking, Little Beidou walked into the room, and Jiang Yan thoughtfully closed the door for her.

After arriving in the room, Little Beidou walked around it once, then slowly lay down on the bed.

Her eyes held a dazed expression.

How long has it been since she slept on a bed?

A long time; so long that she can't even remember.

Before, she envied others who could sleep on beds.

Now she doesn't have to envy anymore.

Because she has a home.

She has a Master who treats her very well, and a very gentle Master's wife.

Amid her joy, Little Beidou was also exceedingly cautious.

Even when turning over, she dared not make a sound.

For she feared the noise she made would disturb Jiang Yan and the others from their rest.

But soon, as a wave of drowsiness swept over her, Little Beidou closed her eyes heavily and curled up, falling asleep.
