Genshin Impact: Learning makes me stronger

Three days later.

The early morning sunlight shines through the carved wooden window, gently onto the large bed in the master bedroom of the Su Mansion in Liyue Port.

The air is filled with the unique warm fragrance from last night's joy, mixed with the elegant scent of the neon flowers outside the window.

Su Xun lay on his side, supporting his head with one hand, his eyes smiling as he looked at the delicate sleeping face of the person in his arms.

Gan Yu curled up in his arms, her long, soft blue-purple hair spread out on the pillow, entangled ambiguously with Su Xun's inky black hair.

There was still a blush on her fair cheeks, and her long eyelashes cast fan-like shadows under her eyes. Her sleeping face was peaceful and beautiful.

The morning light outlines her graceful shoulders and neck, sliding under the thin quilt, evoking one's imagination.

For her, last night was a perfection that spanned a long time.

The loneliness of guarding Liyue Harbor for a thousand years and the suppressed feelings for Su Xun finally found a home in that embrace and oath.

Even in her sleep, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, with a look of contentment and peace.

Su Xun's fingertips, with a hint of early morning coolness, gently brushed across her smooth forehead, slid down her straight nose, and finally stopped on her slightly opened lips that looked like newly blooming cherry blossoms.

The warm breath brushed across his fingertips, bringing a tingling sensation.

He couldn't help but lean in and press a soft, feathery kiss to those slightly parted lips.

"Hmm..." Ganyu moaned unconsciously in her sleep. Her long eyelashes trembled a few times and then slowly opened.

The pair of blue-purple eyes that had accumulated thousands of years of time, were misty with confusion when he first woke up, reflecting Su Xun's face close at hand with a mischievous smile.

"Axun?" Her voice was hoarse and lazy, as if she had just woken up, like the morning mist in the mountains.

"Awake? My Senior Sister Ganyu." Su Xun's voice was low and pleasant, with the magnetism of the morning. He deliberately emphasized the word "Senior Sister", but his fingertips slid behind her sensitive ears with evil intentions, gently kneading her small earlobes.

Ganyu's cheeks instantly flushed with a darker color, her body trembled sensitively, and the blushing memories of last night instantly came back to her.

She tried to shrink into the quilt shyly, but Su Xun's arms held her tightly.

"Don't..." Her voice was as soft as a mosquito's, and her eyes showed the shyness of a new wife, which was completely different from the calm and capable secretary of Yue Haiting. "Time... It's getting late, isn't it?"

"No hurry." Su Xun chuckled, and simply pulled the person closer to his arms, letting her soft body press tightly against him.

The thin blanket slipped down a little, revealing her round shoulders and delicate collarbones, with a few ambiguous light red marks left on them.

"I guess the chief secretary of Yue Haiting will also need to take a day off today to take care of some personal matters?" He said meaningfully, his warm breath spraying on her sensitive neck.

Ganyu felt that wherever his breath touched was on fire, burning all the way to her heart.

She was too embarrassed to speak and could only bury her burning face in his solid chest, feeling his steady, strong heartbeat and listening to the deep vibrations coming from his chest.

"Axun... stop it..." She protested sullenly, but the ending tone was so soft and without any strength, more like she was acting coquettishly.

Su Xun loved the way she looked, and was about to tease her a few more times when there was a very regular, gentle knock on the door.

Tap, tap, tap.

"Husband, Senior Sister Ganyu, good morning." Shen He's voice was as cold as an ice spring, yet with a hint of barely perceptible warmth.

Gan Yu raised her head from Su Xun's arms suddenly like a frightened deer. Her face became even redder. She tried frantically to pull the quilt to cover herself, but Su Xun held her down with a smile.

"Come in, Ahe." Su Xun said loudly, quite calmly.

The door was gently pushed open, and Shen He walked in carrying a mahogany tray.

She was still wearing a simple moon-white dress, with her long snow-white hair loosely tied up, a few strands of hair falling on her cheeks, making her beautiful face look even more otherworldly.

But in the depths of those eyes looking at Su Xun and Gan Yu, the ice and snow had long since melted away, leaving only gentle concern.

On the tray were two bowls of steaming soothing soup with a sweet medicinal aroma, as well as a few exquisite side dishes and porridge.

"Sister Gui Zhong said that Senior Sister Gan Yu was receiving... ahem, receiving grace for the first time, so her mind and energy might be damaged, so she specifically asked me to send some nourishing medicinal food."

Shen He placed the tray on the small table beside the bed, his eyes falling on Gan Yu's blushing cheeks and the faint red marks on her neck. His expression remained calm, but his ears were quietly tinged with a very light pink.

Su Xun couldn't help laughing, Gui Zhong, this "experienced person" was really considerate.

He reached out to take a bowl of soup, tested the temperature, and handed it to Gan Yu's lips: "Come, Senior Sister, this is a token of love from Sister Gui Zhong."

Gan Yu felt even more embarrassed by Shen He's calm gaze, and when she heard her mention "the first time she received grace", she simply wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

She lowered her head and sipped the soup that Su Xun fed her. The warm soup did soothe her embarrassment and the slight soreness in her body.

Shen He looked at Su Xun feeding him carefully, and a gentle smile appeared in his cold eyes.

She also picked up another bowl of soup, sat quietly on the edge of the bed, and ate it in small bites.

The room was quiet and warm for a moment, with only the subtle sound of bowls and spoons touching each other and the silent warmth flowing between the three people.

"Mother! Father! Aunt Ganyu!"

The clear and tender voice of a child, accompanied by the sound of trotting, came from afar, breaking the silence.

Su Liuyue, wearing a moon-white jacket embroidered with ice diamond patterns, rushed in staggeringly like a cheerful little bird, followed by Guizhong, who was carrying another breakfast.

Gui Zhong was wearing a gorgeous palace dress with flowing cloud patterns, her figure was swaying and there was a doting smile on her face.

"Yuer!" When Gan Yu saw the child, the blush on her face faded slightly, and her eyes were immediately filled with tenderness.

Little Liyue had a clear goal. She bypassed her mother Shen He who was standing beside the bed and ran to the bed. She tried to climb onto the bed using her hands and feet. Her big black eyes curiously moved back and forth between Ganyu and Su Xun.

"Aunt Ganyu! You and daddy are sleeping late!" The little guy complained in a baby voice, pointing at them with his little hand.

"Pfft..." Gui couldn't help laughing. He put the breakfast in his hand on the small table and looked at the two people on the bed teasingly, "It seems that our Yue'er can't stand it anymore. Ganyu, how do you feel? Don't let your husband who has no self-control wear you out."

"Sister Gui Zhong!" Gan Yu's blush that had just faded away surged up again. She gave Gui Zhong a reproachful look, then quickly reached out and carried little Li Yue, who was trying hard to climb up, to the bed.

As soon as the little guy got on the bed, he immediately jumped into Gan Yu's arms like a little octopus, rubbed against her, and looked at Su Xun curiously: "Daddy, Aunt Gan Yu smells good, just like you!"

The child's words were innocent, but they made Ganyu's face turn completely red.

Su Xun laughed, and pulled his daughter into his arms, rubbing his chin against her tender little face: "That's because Daddy and Aunt Ganyu are a family!"

"Giggle, giggle... Itchy! Daddy is so bad!" Little Liyue giggled when she was rubbed and twisted her body to avoid it.

Gui finally looked at this happy scene with his eyes full of relief.

She walked to the bedside and looked at Gan Yu, her tone full of teasing and sincere concern: "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. This medicinal food is best drunk while hot. My husband has thick skin and this is your first time, so you need to rest more."

Ganyu nodded with a red face, sipping the soup, but her heart was warm.

"Oh, by the way," Gui Zhong seemed to remember something and glanced across the room, "Where's the 'newcomer'? Hasn't he woken up yet?"

She was referring to Buyel, the king of the great compassionate tree.

Yesterday, Su Xun woke her up from her five hundred years of slumber and brought her back to the Su Mansion.

Suddenly changing from the core will of the World Tree to a "new member" who needs to adapt to mortal life, this former Grass God obviously still needs time to adjust.

Su Xun pointed towards the next room and smiled in a low voice, "She's studying it. Since she came back last night, she has been studying the flowing lights, mechanical water leaks, and the book 'Fashionable Clothing of the Seven Kingdoms of Teyvat' that Hu Tao left in her room for half the night. When I came out, she was trying to use the grass elemental power to make the skirt in the album 'come alive'."

Gui Zhong imagined the scene and couldn't help laughing: "It's... lively."

The Demon God of Dust was very interested in the God of Wisdom's adaptation period into the world.

Just then, the door of the next room was gently pushed open.

An elegant figure appeared at the door.

Buyer changed out of the gorgeous clothes she wore yesterday, which were made of pure divine power and symbolized the throne of God. She now wore a simple and elegant skirt prepared for her by Guizhong, which was in line with Liyue's current aesthetics.

The soft light green fabric made her skin look whiter than snow. Her long silver-white hair was loosely tied up and fixed with a simple jade hairpin, which made her look less divine and more gentle.

However, there was still a trace of confusion on her face due to her unsuccessful research. When she saw everyone gathered in the hall, especially Su Xun and Gan Yu who were sitting on the bed with their clothes slightly disheveled, the calmness that belonged to the God of Wisdom was quietly mixed with a hint of imperceptible embarrassment and curiosity that belonged to a "mortal".

"Good morning, everyone." Buyer's voice was still ethereal and pleasant, but he tried to bring a touch of human warmth.

Her gaze swept across the smooth lines of Su Xun's chest under his open shirt, then quickly passed the lingering red mark on Gan Yu's neck, and finally fell on little Li Yue. Her emerald green eyes naturally revealed maternal tenderness.

"Aunt Buyer, good morning!" Little Liyue called sweetly. She had a good impression of this beautiful aunt who had a gentle temperament and a pleasant scent of plants and trees.

"Good morning, Yue'er." Buyer walked to the bedside and looked at Ganyu with a gentle look and a knowing smile. "Sister Ganyu, are you feeling better?"

The word "sister" made Ganyu's face heat up again. She nodded quickly: "Thank you, King Shu... Sister Buyer for your concern. I'm fine."

"You're welcome." Buyer sat down gracefully on the embroidered cushion beside the bed, his eyes falling on the nourishing soup on the small table, "Is this... a medicinal meal?"

Gui Zhong smiled and explained, "Yes, it's for Ganyu's health. Buyer, why don't you try it? This is a recipe that my husband researched himself."

A hint of curiosity about new things flashed in Buyer's eyes, and he nodded happily: "Okay."

Shen He silently pushed the other untouched bowl of soup over.

Su Xun looked at the scene in front of him: Gan Yu lazily nestling in his arms, his lively daughter in his arms, Shen He quietly drinking his soup, Gui Zhong with a sweet smile, and Buyer who was trying to adapt to the life of a mortal with a hint of novelty.

The sun is warm and the years are peaceful.

The smile on his lips deepened, and he lowered his head to place another kiss on Ganyu's smooth forehead, causing her to shyly hit him. He then deliberately teased the giggling little Liyue in his arms, causing Guizhong to laugh and scold him for being "unruly". Buyer, on the other hand, looked at the noisy and warm morning light quietly with his pair of emerald green eyes that were full of insight into the world and a gentle smile.
