It wasn't until Gan Yu felt a slight chill that she realized what was happening. Blushing, she changed into a new talisman, put on a nightgown, covered herself with the blanket, and prepared to go to sleep.
But no matter how much I tossed and turned, I just couldn't fall asleep.
When I close my eyes, all I see in my mind is my junior brother's smile.
"What... what should we do? The ancient texts don't say how to get through this period... This is so inconvenient."
Gan Yu muttered to herself, on the verge of tears, then, as if she had just thought of a solution…
Gan Yu pursed her lips and then took out a piece of clothing from her divine eye.
Then, his eyes gradually became hazy, and his hand slowly moved downwards...
…………
Silent all night.
The next morning, when Jiang Ning got up, he found that the doors and windows of Senior Sister Gan Yu's room were all closed.
I couldn't help but feel confused.
Could it be that Senior Sister Gan Yu hasn't gotten up yet?
Jiang Ning knocked gently on the door, but there was no response, so she had no choice but to push the door open and go inside.
Sometimes, Gan Yu would oversleep, and in those cases, I would always wake her up so she wouldn't be late for work.
Now, not having to work overtime and taking regular leave are the bare minimum that Gan Yu can accept.
To take it even further, in Gan Yu's view, that would be social outcasts... well, except for the Emperor and his junior brother.
Therefore, when Jiang Ning arrived at Gan Yu's room, he saw a small mountain of bedding curled up on the bed.
"Senior sister still likes to curl up to sleep so much..."
Jiang Ning muttered to himself.
"Senior sister, get up, it's Monday, time to go to work."
Like the whispers of a demon, Jiang Ning uttered extremely vicious words.
But for some reason, the scent of lilies in Gan Yu's room seemed even stronger than usual today, and...
Jiang Ning sniffed. Did her senior sister take a bath in milk last night? The smell was very strong.
Jiang Ning respected girls' love of beauty, but still found it somewhat difficult to understand.
Gan Yu opened her eyes somewhat blankly, her pupils as gentle and charming as spring rain on a crabapple tree, filled with moisture.
"Junior...brother?"
Gan Yu's thoughts were still a bit stuck, clearly she hadn't fully woken up yet.
Looking at Jiang Ning in front of her, she thought she was dreaming. Instinctively, she stretched out her arms and hugged Jiang Ning.
"Sister..."
Jiang Ning was startled, but then comfortably hugged Gan Yu back, gently patting Gan Yu's back as if coaxing a child.
His other hand gently stroked the corners of Gan Yu's head:
"Senior sister, wake up."
Gan Yu squinted her eyes, as if she were enjoying something.
However, Gan Yu suddenly opened her eyes wide, and her eyes became clear.
Realizing what she was doing, Gan Yu's face flushed red, and even her fair skin took on a blush, making her incomparably beautiful.
"I...you...you go out first!"
Jiang Ning gave his senior sister's unicorn horn a good rub, and then said with satisfaction:
"Senior sister, I'm going out now. I need to buy breakfast later... It's getting late. Don't you have some work to do this morning?"
With that, he walked out.
Gan Yu sat on the bed in a daze, and it took her a long time to react.
"Oh no! I'm going to be late!"
Gan Yu was flustered and could only suppress her shyness. She dressed quickly, washed up hastily, and rushed to Yuehai Pavilion.
After Gan Yu left, Jiang Ning tidied up Gan Yu's room and left the breakfast he had just bought in the dining room.
If Shen He doesn't stay overnight at my place, then breakfast will definitely be plain noodles or some simple porridge and side dishes made by Shen He.
But today is a special case. Jiang Ning went to the street to buy things and also brought some back for Shen He.
Of course, Gan Yu also had one, but seeing Gan Yu's hurried departure, Jiang Ning didn't call out to her.
"Oops, I forgot to buy a soy milk..."
Jiang Ning rummaged through the bag and found only a serving of soy milk. He smacked his lips and decided not to make another trip.
So they checked if there was anything to drink at home. If not, they would just have plain water and leave the rest for Shen He.
After searching for a while, I finally found a bottle that looked like it contained milk.
“It looks like it’s from recently…” Jiang Ning sniffed it again. “Hmm, it’s not spoiled, and it smells like it’s still high-quality milk.”
Without much thought, Jiang Ning, holding the bottle, drank some milk and steamed buns, thus getting by with today's breakfast.
For some reason, after drinking the milk, a warm current spread from Jiang Ning's lower abdomen to his limbs, and even his energy was restored, just like... just like the increase in power in his body after absorbing the remnants of the demon god or elemental power.
"Senior sister, where did you get this? Or did you add some magical herbs to it?"
Jiang Ning still prioritized the latter, but it probably wasn't anything valuable, otherwise it wouldn't have been placed in the kitchen cabinet instead of being stored away.
Little did she know that Gan Yu, exhausted after finishing everything last night, had no idea that she had just carelessly put the thing in the cupboard.
"Oh, I almost forgot, I made a promise with Senior Sister Yanfei to go to the wilderness..."
Jiang Ning checked the time, left a note for Shen He, and headed towards the entrance of Liyue Harbor.
…………
Gan Yu arrived at Yuehai Pavilion, and afterwards, the strange feeling on her body had almost completely dissipated.
Honestly, I clearly told my junior brother that I shouldn't touch my horn so casually.
Gan Yu patted her cheeks and started working.
Under Gan Yu's well-organized arrangements, the work, which was originally like a tangled ball of yarn, was instantly sorted out.
After making the arrangements step by step, Gan Yu rushed to Qunyu Pavilion.
"Miss Ningguang, I've arrived. I'm so sorry to have caused everyone so much trouble during this trip to Mondstadt."
Gan Yu said apologetically after seeing Ning Guang.
Yesterday, after seeing Ningguang's three secretaries, I felt embarrassed by their expressions of relief.
Afterwards, he also prepared some small gifts and sent them to the homes of the three secretaries.
Ningguang then said, "Gan Yu, you don't need to worry about it. As for Jiang Ning, he should be alright, right?"
"It's alright, thankfully I arrived in time," Gan Yu said. "By the way, about some matters concerning Mondstadt..."
Gan Yu began to report to Ning Guang in detail, occasionally listing some of her own opinions.
Ningguang also frowned slightly, deep in thought.
"Let's do it your way. I have nothing to add. As expected of Gan Yu, she is very reliable."
Ningguang sighed.
The Seven Star Secretary over so many years is truly terrifying.
"Miss Ningguang, you flatter me. By the way, where is Keqing?"
Ganyu asked.
"Recently, there seems to be some movement in the Layered Rock Abyss. Yuheng Star has temporarily gone there, which can also be considered as letting her lay low for a while and let the storm pass."
Ningguang said.
"Is it still about the Emperor? This matter is probably just an excuse. Someone is probably trying to interfere with the selection of the Seven Stars."
Gan Yu said.
"Hmm, seems to be an executive officer of the Fools, a rich man. But don't worry, it's just a small-scale operation. This should be considered a test. But you, do you have no objections to Jade Balance Star?"
Ningguang was a little curious. During the previous Immortal Invitation Ceremony, Gan Yu had a lot of opinions about Ke Qing because of those words.
The way she was addressed changed from "Miss Keqing" to "Yuheng Star" at the beginning, and now it's back to the original?
"Miss Ningguang is joking. When it comes to work, there's no question of opinions."
Gan Yu said calmly.
If it weren't for my conversation with the Emperor and the fact that I learned some of his thoughts, I might still have quite a few complaints about Yuheng Star.
However, if the Emperor's plan goes smoothly and Junior Brother passes the assessment, Yuheng Star might become Junior Brother's right-hand man in the future. Therefore, the relationship should not be allowed to become too strained.
Seeing that Gan Yu didn't want to explain, Ning Guang didn't press the matter, but simply changed the subject:
"By the way, there's something I need to discuss with Inazuma..."
…………
"Senior Sister Yanfei, you must have been waiting for a long time. I'm sorry."
Upon arriving at the entrance of Liyue Harbor, Jiang Ning saw Yanfei sitting in a shady spot and quickly walked over.
"It's okay, I've only been here a short time myself."
Yan Fei saw Jiang Ning and said with a smile.
"Alright, let's go."
