When Su Mo heard Keqing's question, he couldn't help but look up at Keqing in a daze.

Senior sister?

Then he remembered something.

Yes, he told Shen He that he would send her off this morning, but after so many things happened last night, he forgot about it. If he didn't go back, Shen He would definitely wait for him at home with her personality.

Thinking of this, Su Mo couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

Keqing noticed something was wrong with Su Mo's expression. She asked with concern, "Su Mo, what's wrong with you?"

Su Mo shook his head: "Nothing, just thinking of something."

He is taking care of Keqing now, so he has to find a suitable time to leave.

Keqing nodded thoughtfully, then smiled and continued, "Since everything is fine, can you tell me about your senior sister?"

Su Mo looked at Keqing's smiling eyes and couldn't help feeling helpless.

"Why are you so concerned about my senior sister's affairs? She is just staying at my house for one night."

Keqing was a little displeased when she heard that. "I don't believe it. She told me that you let her live in your house. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't be lying here sick and unable to do anything."

Su Mo shook his head helplessly: "She really just stayed at my house for one night. As for letting her stay there forever, it was just a casual remark on my part. I didn't expect her to say that to you."

As he spoke, Su Mo handed the cooled tonic soup in his hand to Keqing.

"Come, have something to drink first. It's really not hot this time."

Upon hearing this, Keqing took the bowl of soup reluctantly, and the resentment on her face clearly showed that she was not satisfied with Su Mo's answer.

Su Mo didn't say much about this. In fact, this was how things happened, and Su Mo had nothing else to say.

Keqing slowly finished the nourishing soup in her bowl.

Su Mo took the soup bowl, filled it up, and handed it to Keqing.

Keqing looked a little unhappy.

"You want to starve me to death."

Su Mo smiled and said, "After all, you're already a patient, so shouldn't you take more supplements?"

Keqing's displeasure intensified: "Then it's not because of your senior sister that I became what I am now."

Su Mo couldn't help but feel helpless when he heard this.

Well, this hurdle is impossible to overcome, right?

Su Mo looked at Keqing solemnly and said earnestly, "Aqing, my senior sister really has nothing to do with this matter. Can you please stop targeting her?"

"You are still defending her like this. Do you know that when I went to your house, she almost took my life?" Keqing said angrily.

"What!? It almost cost you your life?" Su Mo said in surprise.

He looked at Keqing in disbelief. Although he knew Shen He's way of doing things, Keqing had no grudge against her, so she wouldn't take her life anyway.

Su Mo comforted her: "Aqing, what is going on? Tell me about it. If it is really my senior sister's fault, I will help you get back at her." There was a hint of determination in his tone.

In fact, Su Mo was just talking, because at least Keqing was fine now. Besides, Shen He was his senior sister, and he couldn't fight with Shen He for this matter. At most, he would just scold her a few words?

Su Mo didn't know, because with Shen He's personality, he could only decide based on the situation. If Shen He didn't want to, there was nothing he could do.

When Keqing heard Su Mo's words, she felt a little aggrieved and told him everything that happened last night.

Of course, she didn't say everything, for example, she hid her idea of ​​a night attack.

Su Mo was at a loss for words after hearing this. To be precise, neither of them was wrong. Keqing, upon hearing Xiangling say he was back, wanted to see him. Shen He, on the other hand, thought a thief had entered the house. This led to a series of conflicts.

Seeing Su Mo like this, Keqing was slightly furious. "You're still laughing! Do you know that I was almost stabbed to death by your senior sister? If I hadn't reacted quickly, you'd be lying here like a corpse right now."

Su Mo comforted him, "Okay, okay, don't be angry. I apologize to you on behalf of my senior sister. She really didn't mean it."

Keqing turned her face away and didn't look at Su Mo.

Su Mo was somewhat helpless: "If you really can't let go of your anger, then at worst I can let you stab me with a sword on behalf of my senior sister to vent your anger."

Keqing couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard this.

"How great do you think your reputation is? Can you block my sword for her?"

Su Mo spread his hands and said, "There's nothing I can do about it. After all, she's my senior sister. I can't really let you stab her with a sword."

Keqing snorted coldly, "You want me to stab you? I don't want to." Her tone was full of stubbornness, but what she was thinking was, "You want me to stab you? If I really hurt you and you don't feel bad, then I will feel bad too."

Su Mo smiled slightly when he saw Keqing's reaction. He knew that Keqing was a tsundere person, and her personality was quite similar to that of Master Liuyun.

Just when Keqing was being arrogant, Su Mo suddenly asked.

"Hey, Aqing, you said you were attacked by my senior sister inside my house with the door closed?"

Keqing said disapprovingly, "Yeah, if your house wasn't so dark, there's no way I wouldn't have seen her."

Hearing this, Su Mo smiled slightly and became interested: "Oh? So according to you, you were attacked in my house, then how did you get in?"

Keqing replied casually, "Of course I use the key..." She stopped talking mid-sentence when she realized what was happening. She slowly turned her head and looked at Su Mo.

And Su Mo was looking at her with a smile on his face.

"Aqing, shouldn't you explain why you have the key to my house?"

Keqing's expression suddenly became a little unnatural, and a faint blush appeared on her cheeks.

"I, I picked it up on the road when I came to find you..." she answered hesitantly.

Su Mo's mouth twitched slightly.

Did you pick it up when you went to look for him?

Why didn't she say that someone else gave it to her?

Oh, by the way, Keqing is from Yuheng Star, in charge of the real estate industry. Wouldn’t it be easy for her to make a key to a house in Liyue Harbor?

Thinking of this, Su Mo felt relieved. No wonder the house was so clean when he came back last time. It turned out that Keqing had cleaned it.

Su Mo couldn't help but shook his head.

Alas, I owe more and more favors to others.

----

Su Mo watched Keqing finish the last bowl of soup, took the bowl and tidied it up. He looked at Keqing.

"What you need?"

Keqing shook her head.

"If you don't need anything, then I'll leave first. I have some things to take care of at home."

Keqing asked, "Is it because of your senior sister?"

Su Mo nodded calmly and then turned to leave.

"Su Mo." Keqing suddenly spoke.

"Hmm?" Su Mo stopped and turned to face Keqing.

But Keqing just looked at Su Mo quietly with a complicated look in her eyes, but in the end she still wanted to ask the question in her heart.

"Why didn't you come to see me when you came back from Inazuma? You went to see Hu Tao and Yun Jin, but you didn't come to see me...why?" Keqing looked at Su Mo expectantly, as if she wanted a suitable answer from him.

After hearing Keqing's question, Su Mo fell silent.

He didn't know how to answer this question.

In fact, if Keqing hadn't fallen ill this time, he might not have had any contact with Keqing for a long time.

Now he has complicated feelings towards Keqing, but he doesn't know how to express it.

"Aqing, let's talk about this issue later, okay?" Su Mo said hesitantly.

"Is that so..." Keqing's original expectation turned into loneliness when she heard Su Mo's answer.

In fact, she already had a vague idea of ​​the answer, but she still wanted to hear Su Mo say it in person.

Su Mo looked at the dejected Keqing, his mind abuzz with emotion. He turned and was about to leave.

Keqing looked up when she heard the noise and called out to Su Mo.

"Su Mo..."

"Hmm?" Su Mo stopped again.

"Anything else?"

Keqing looked at Su Mo and shook her head: "No...it's okay...I just wanted to tell you...I've saved your position on Tianshu Star for you..."

Su Mo was slightly stunned and looked at Keqing with mixed feelings.

“…Okay, thank you…”

Keqing's gaze fell on the silent Su Mo, and her voice was hesitant: "Um... Su Mo... I still hope you can continue to hold this position..."

After Keqing finished speaking, she unconsciously grasped the quilt tightly with both hands and looked at Su Mo nervously.

When Su Mo heard this, he hesitated, but finally nodded.

"Well, I see."

"Have a good rest. I'll come to see you again when I have time."

"Okay..." Keqing responded softly, with a hint of loss in her tone, and slowly loosened her grip on the quilt.

Su Mo turned around and slowly left the room.

Keqing watched Su Mo's back until he disappeared through the doorway. Then, she leaned weakly against the bed, her eyes cast down, wondering what she was thinking.

The morning light gradually rose, bringing with it a hint of warmth. It shone through the window onto the girl's neck, reflecting a vast expanse of white. However, above this, a layer of melancholy shrouded it.
