Chapter 327
But soon, Ningguang experienced the technique Lin Mo spoke of.
While Lin Mo was performing the technique on Ningguang.
On the Jade Chamber.
Keqing, having just come up, stretched lazily; illuminated by the moonlight, it was clear she had changed into a new set of clothes.
The moonlight was like water, reflecting Keqing’s new attire as if it were a dream.
She wore a deep blue dress with a unique design, possessing both traditional charm and a sense of fashion.
The dress featured a multi-layered skirt design, with an outer layer of transparent light gauze covering a deep blue base skirt that looked like the starry sky, dotted with stars twinkling as if in the night sky, as if the entire galaxy had been sewn onto her bodice.
“According to the information I received, Lin Mo is still staying on the Jade Chamber tonight; it is time for me to fulfill my promise.”
“The preparations for tomorrow’s Rite of Parting can be delayed; it’s not too urgent.”
Keqing, having just arrived, whispered to herself, her face slightly flushed.
If not for the Rite of Descension, she would have been completely taken by Lin Mo on the lawn of Yaoguang Shoal two days ago.
But even if she hadn’t been taken, everything that could be done, except for the final step, had been done.
It had left her hands and mouth numb.
And the events of today signified the end of the Rite of Descension; what remained were the preparations for tomorrow’s Rite of Parting.
The Rite of Parting was already prepared, and tomorrow it only needed to be held on time; there would be no problems during the process.
The departure of the adepti from Jueyun Karst, the Fatui’s wanted notice, the rebuilding of Liyue Harbor today, and the full takeover of everything from the Northland Bank.
All of this signaled that the Liyue to come would enter a brand-new era.
And she, too, should fulfill her promise to Lin Mo.
The reason she didn’t wait until tomorrow after the Rite of Parting was completely over was that Keqing wanted to give Lin Mo a little surprise tonight.
She believed Lin Mo would be surprised by this sudden situation, right?
Thinking this, Keqing squinted, her steps toward Lin Mo’s room light and cheerful.
Through the moonlight, one could see Keqing’s new clothes looking exceptionally dazzling; she was like a fairy walking out of a moon palace, every movement radiating an extraordinary glow.
She stretched her body lazily, and with every step, the moonlight and her dress reflected each other, emitting a dreamlike beauty.
And Lin Mo, at this moment, was focused on Ningguang, not yet aware of the moving scene Keqing presented on the Jade Chamber.
Soon.
Keqing arrived at the door of Lin Mo’s room.
But before Keqing could squint and knock, she heard a series of sobbing, pleading female voices from inside, making her heart jump.
This voice.
“Is it Collei?”
Keqing didn’t expect that she would come at such a bad time.
Lin Mo was already doing it.
And as for who it was, the only person Keqing could think of was Collei, who was always by Lin Mo’s side.
Keqing had long since accepted Collei.
But the next second, Keqing’s expression turned even stranger, her eyes filled with astonishment.
No, this voice, it wasn’t Collei.
If she hadn’t heard wrong, it was Ningguang?!
“How can you be so bad, making me use such a shameful position.”
“What? You still have a dozen styles you haven’t used yet?”
“If I had known you were this bad, I wouldn’t have delivered myself to you.”
The next second, Ningguang’s intermittent voice came out, leaving Keqing’s expression blank.
It really was Ningguang’s voice.
How could Ningguang be in Lin Mo’s room?
“Is Lady Ningguang regretting the investment?”
As Ningguang’s intermittent voice sounded, Lin Mo’s voice followed: “It’s too late to regret now.”
“Regret… I, Ningguang, have never regretted anything I’ve done.”
“Hoo…”
After saying this, Ningguang fell completely silent.
And Keqing instantly understood the ins and outs, her face turning red; Ningguang would actually invest in Lin Mo like this!
“I didn’t expect that Ningguang, who is usually so noble, would be so alluring when she calls out.”
“Does this count as me discovering Ningguang’s little secret?”
Keqing secretly spat, the sound just now making her body feel a bit hot, and she immediately planned to turn and leave.
Since Ningguang was here, she would just wait until tomorrow.
And if she left quietly now, Ningguang wouldn’t know, and she could tease Ningguang tomorrow.
By then, the initiative would be in her hands.
She believed that if Ningguang knew she had heard it at the door tonight, her expression would definitely be wonderful.
Thinking this, Keqing prepared to turn and leave.
“I didn’t expect tonight to be such a good day.”
Before Keqing could leave, Lin Mo’s slightly surprised voice suddenly rang out: “Since you’re here, come in.”
Keqing, who was about to leave, heard this, her expression blank, instinctively wanting to speed up her steps.
But before Keqing could speed up and leave, the door opened, and Lin Mo stood at the door, smiling as he looked at Keqing: “I didn’t expect you to come too, Keqing.”
“You look really beautiful.”
Looking at the clothes Keqing was wearing, different from usual, Lin Mo’s eyes brightened slightly.
Lin Mo really hadn’t expected Keqing to change into new clothes and come over today.
Keqing’s new clothes were like a night butterfly dancing under the moonlight, beautiful enough to take one’s breath away.
Keqing’s dress clung to her body, perfectly highlighting her figure. The deep blue main dress emitted a light like the stars, and the transparent light gauze was like soft mist in the night sky, adding a touch of dreaminess.
Golden star-shaped ornaments twinkled on her chest, as if telling an ancient and mysterious star story.
Keqing’s long hair was softly tied at the top of her head, and the blue hair ribbons hanging on both sides danced with the wind, adding a touch of agility.
She wore cat-ear-shaped decorations by her ears, making her look playful and mysterious.
The collar and cuffs of the clothes cleverly used black edges, forming a sharp contrast with the deep blue main body, and the golden star-shaped ornament in the center of the collar was the finishing touch of the entire dress.
The belt at her waist tightly outlined her figure, looking both elegant and powerful.
The hem of the long skirt brushed lightly over her slender legs, and the transparent light gauze was printed with faint butterfly and flower patterns, both vaguely visible and full of mystery.
Keqing wore black decorations at her ankles that echoed her gloves, simple yet exquisite.
Under the moonlight, her figure appeared even taller, and the streamlines of her dress and her movements seemed to be silently performing a dance of the moonlit night.
“You look really beautiful.”
Lin Mo’s voice was full of sincere admiration.
And Keqing, hearing Lin Mo’s words, a flash of light passed through her eyes.
She knew her new outfit had earned praise.
But thinking of what she had just heard, a blush appeared on Keqing’s face involuntarily.
“I, I seem to have come at a bad time.”
Keqing looked behind Lin Mo, stuttering slightly.
“No, you came at just the right time.”
Hearing Keqing, Lin Mo chuckled, reached out and grabbed Keqing’s shoulder, making Keqing’s body be pulled in by Lin Mo involuntarily.
“Clang!”
When Keqing reacted, the sound of the door closing had already rung out, instantly bringing Keqing back to her senses.
Keqing, who had come to her senses, found Ningguang lying lazily on the bed, her black, shiny hair scattered messily on the bed, a quilt pulled over her body, revealing her snow-white shoulders and two well-proportioned, slender legs, her usually fair face now flushed, her starry eyes half-open and half-closed, clearly savoring the aftertaste of just now.
“I, I.”
“You what?”
Lin Mo, while placing his hand on Keqing’s waist, made Keqing feel waves of scorching heat overflowing from the deepest part of her body to her whole body.
