Genshin Impact: Learning makes me stronger

"Shen He..."

An unknown amount of time had passed. In this harmonious atmosphere, Su Xun looked at Shen He's beautiful face and called softly.

"Hmm?" Shen He turned his head, a hint of doubt in his cold eyes.

"This is for you." Su Xun took out an exquisite jade pendant and handed it to the beauty with a smile.

"This is..." Shen He didn't know why Su Xun gave her a jade pendant, and was a little stunned.

When her eyes fell on the jade pendant, she saw a crane intricately carved on it, with an agile and fairy-like appearance, as if it would flap its wings and fly away from the jade pendant at any time.

The depiction of the crane is extremely lifelike, and the blue and white jade pendant reflects a warm luster in the sunlight.

"I took time out to refine this jade pendant on Mount Aozang." Su Xun explained slowly, a hint of pride in his eyes.

"It is embedded with the talismans and formations of the immortals, and has many magical uses. Not only can it allow you and I to communicate across long distances, but it can also be used as a storage device to store items.

It even has a spirit gathering array built in, which can bless your cultivation speed. Of course, the most important thing is that once you encounter a crisis, it can summon a layer of shield that is enough to resist powerful attacks from below the immortal level. "

"I originally planned to give it to you before leaving Aozang Mountain, but I didn't expect you to go down the mountain with me. Now that I have the chance, I will give it to you as a gift." Su Xun smiled, his eyes full of tenderness.

He actually made a pair of these jade pendants, and he naturally had one in his hand, so that they could keep in touch when they were not together.

Shen He was stunned when she heard that. After she came to her senses, she lowered her head slightly, pursed her soft lips, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks, and her heartbeat accelerated.

Is this... is this a token of love? Or is it just a gift?

She couldn't help but let her imagination run wild.

Due to the influence of the red rope that binds the soul, Shen He's emotional world should have been as calm as water.

However, ever since she met Su Xun, her heart has often been in turmoil and ripples. Su Xun's every move seems to be able to easily break the peace in her heart.

In front of him, she was always like an ordinary girl, with joy and sorrow, as if all her lost feelings had returned.

Shen He is just indifferent, not emotionless, and Su Xun awakens the hidden side of her heart.

He took a deep breath and carefully put the jade pendant into his arms.

She didn't refuse, nor did she want to refuse. She was even more worried that if she refused, Su Xun would be unhappy.

Looking up, Shen He met Su Xun's gentle gaze. His heart beat faster and his face gradually became hot.

"Thank you..." She tried her best to calm her inner joy and responded calmly.

"No need to be so polite with me." Seeing that Shen He did not refuse and directly accepted the jade pendant, Su Xun also showed a happy smile on his face.

Shen He hesitated for a moment and said softly: "I don't have any precious items to give as a return gift. If you... don't mind, just accept this."

She gently untied the ring of red rope on her left hand and handed it to Su Xun, her eyes flickering with a hint of shyness and hope.

Su Xun gazed into Shen He's eyes as clear as waves, and his heart seemed to be moved by waves of warm ripples. The joy in his heart was like a flower in spring, blooming uncontrollably.

Without any hesitation, he reached out and took the thin red rope bracelet, as if at this moment, he held the whole world in his hands.

"Okay!" he responded firmly and happily.

……

Ever since they exchanged gifts like tokens of love in the morning, the relationship between Shen He and Su Xun seemed to have become closer, and the already subtle atmosphere became even more passionate.

Su Xun knew that as long as he confessed his feelings at this moment, Shen He would definitely not refuse.

But he still didn't take any action. After all, although they both liked each other, they had not spent enough time together. He wanted to give Shen He some time to prepare, and also give himself some buffer time.

Watching the morning light shining through the clouds and filling every corner of Liyue Harbor, the sky became completely bright, and Su Xun took Shen He to Wanmin Hall.

Knowing that she didn't like crowded places, he found a secluded corner.

Master Tongmao ordered some classic Liyue breakfast, and Su Xun returned to his seat and sat down.

The two chatted while enjoying breakfast.

Su Xun asked Shen He if she wanted to act alone, and after she shook her head in response, he nodded.

In that case, why not take Shen He with you for a walk today, continue to get familiar with Liyue Harbor, and make some more friends.

The first step is naturally to visit Senior Sister Ganyu. It seems that Shen He and Ganyu rarely met before the plot began.

As sisters from the same school, we shouldn’t be so unfamiliar with each other.

After a simple breakfast, the two left Wanmin Hall and walked towards Yujing Terrace.

On the streets in the early morning, Shen He's appearance was undoubtedly the focus of the crowd.

Her face, like that of a fairy from heaven, was particularly eye-catching amid the hustle and bustle of Liyue Harbor, making people unable to help but stare at her.

"What a beautiful woman! Is she an immortal?"

"That shouldn't be the case. How could immortals appear in Liyue Harbor? Don't they all live in Jueyunjian?"

"If I could marry such a beauty, my life would be perfect!"

"Come on, Liu San, you are such a jerk and you still want to marry a wife like this? You are overthinking it, hahaha!"

"Yeah, don't you look at what you look like!"

"That's it!"

"Humph! Can't you even think about it? If you have the ability, you can marry a wife like this!"

"Hehe, don't do that. I, Wu Laoer, know myself. A person like this who looks like a fairy is not worthy of a rough fellow like me. Look at the handsome boy next to the girl. Others are a perfect match. They are talented and beautiful. This is what we call a good match~"

"That's Su Xun, right? You know what, this guy has been good-looking since he was young, and he's also well-behaved and mature. I don't know where he found such a beautiful girlfriend. He's really lucky!"

"Oh! I will definitely replace him!" someone said in a sour tone.

"Oh~" Several boos were heard at the same time.

On the street, there were constant glances cast over, accompanied by unbridled discussions.

Shen He frowned slightly, obviously not used to all the focused attention.

Su Xun noticed her discomfort and thought to himself that it was a bad idea as he had not anticipated this situation.

Then he cast a spell to conceal their aura, which to a certain extent concealed their figures, which eased the noise around them a little.

Although he himself was a handsome and elegant young man in Liyue Harbor and attracted much attention, he had lived here for more than ten years after all, and the residents were already accustomed to him and were not surprised.

Although he is still popular among young women, the annoying things that happen now would not happen.

Today, it was because of the appearance of Shen He's stunningly beautiful face that caused quite a stir in Liyue Harbor.

Noticing Su Xun's actions, Shen He pursed his lips, feeling excited and in a much better mood.

These minor things did not hinder their pace, and Su Xun and Shen He continued to walk towards Yujingtai.
