The sky was high and the clouds were light. Liyue Harbor gradually woke up in the sunshine, returning to its former bustle, and a lively atmosphere quietly filled the air.

On the roof, a white and yellow tabby cat was yawning lazily. It jumped down lightly, like a falling autumn leaf, so light that it made no sound.

The sunlight shone on its soft fur, creating a warm glow. The kitten stretched itself comfortably, then walked briskly towards a hole in the ground.

The entrance of the cave seemed like a work of ingenuity by nature, with its rounded outline slightly upturned on both sides, forming two pointed arcs, as if it was a throne tailor-made for the kitten.

The kitten stuck its head in, turned around and looked outside, its two pointed ears fitting perfectly in without any obstruction.

At this moment, it seemed as if even time had stopped for this wonderful coincidence.

"Wow, this kitten even has its own dedicated ears!" Paimon exclaimed as he watched the scene.

"That's right, the ears actually have a position. I don't know how it was made? Could it be made artificially?" Ying also exclaimed in amazement.

Su Mo looked at the scene and jokingly said, "Well, maybe it's something that has been honed by generations of people."

After hearing this, Paimon and Ying couldn't help but laugh.

The three of them continued on their way.

"Su Mo, now that it's over, where are you going now?" Paimeng asked.

"Me? I plan to go home." Su Mo replied.

"what about you?"

"We? We don't know either. Now that the situation in Liyue has calmed down, Qixing is dealing with some matters, and we don't seem to have anything to do."

Paimon complained a little, although they had been cleared of suspicion of assassinating the Rock Emperor, they also understood the ins and outs of the matter and the undercurrents.

But they helped Liyue calm down such a big incident. Ningguang only thanked them at the beginning, but now there is no reward.

It is no exaggeration to say that the current situation is that there is nothing to do.

Just as Paimeng was secretly calculating, Ying suddenly said something shocking: "How about I follow you home?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Su Mo and Paimeng's eyes instantly focused on Ying, especially Paimeng, who had a look of disbelief on his face.

Not sisters!

Are you so anxious?

We are just beginning!

And you can even say such a thing?

Ying felt a little uncomfortable under the burning gazes of the two men. She avoided their eyes, put her hands uneasily behind her back, fingers entangled, and explained stutteringly, "Well, well, actually, um... well... it's mainly because we don't know anyone in Liyue. You are the one we are most familiar with. We have no place to live at the moment. As a friend, you should help us find a place to stay." After saying this, Ying glanced to the side as if she didn't care, but the blush on her face betrayed her feelings at the moment.

Paimon looked at the shy Ying with calm eyes, as if he saw through everything, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

It’s true that a married woman is like spilled water!

When the dignified traveler Ying bullied her, Lord Paimon, she acted so righteously and naturally.

When have you ever been so embarrassed?

This has never been shown to her before.

After calming down, Paimeng turned to Su Mo, his tone pleading, "Su Mo, Ying is right. We are in an unfamiliar place here. You are the only one who can help us. You won't let us live on the streets... Otherwise, let's go back with you."

Su Mo was a little embarrassed, his brows slightly furrowed, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

Although Ganyu and the others were in the General Affairs Department, and he didn't want to get involved in these matters, compared to this, there were people waiting for him. But if Ying and Paimeng were together, it would be a bit inconvenient, right?

Seeing this, Paimeng quickly increased his firepower and pretended to be shocked, "Su Mo, you won't help with this little bit? We don't want to stay in a hotel. Even if it's possible, it's okay to go back with you for a meal."

Ying also looked at Su Mo with some anticipation, a hint of pleading in her eyes.

Looking at the two of them, Su Mo nodded, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "Okay, it's okay, but don't talk nonsense when you go back, okay."

Ying nodded frantically like a chick pecking at rice, her eyes full of joy.

When Paimon saw Ying's appearance, he immediately slapped his forehead.

Well, there’s no hope!

In fact, she felt awkward after she said that, but there was nothing she could do since she could only pamper her own sisters.

On their way back, Su Mo, Ying, and Paimeng stopped by the vegetable stalls inside Liyue Harbor and bought some fresh vegetables.

Although such a big crisis had just occurred in Liyue Harbor, it was mainly concentrated on the coastal edge, and the residents inside were not greatly affected.

The sun shines on the lively market, the crowds are bustling, and it is full of the flavor of life.

On the way back, looking at Su Mo carrying the basket, Paimeng was a little puzzled, "Su Mo, why did you buy so many vegetables?"

"Of course I'll go back and eat!" Su Mo said as a matter of course, with a hint of ease in his tone.

Su Mo took a bite of a tomato, and his eyes lit up. He immediately took another one from the basket and handed it to Paimeng, "Would you like to try it? It tastes pretty good."

"No, no." Paimon quickly shook his head to refuse, but his eyes couldn't help but linger on the bright red tomato for a few more seconds.

Then he looked at Ying, who was smiling and looking a little silly, and then looked at Su Mo, who seemed to be indifferent. Suddenly, he felt complicated and didn't know what to say.

……

When they were about to reach the door of Su Mo's house, they saw a beautiful figure who had been waiting for a long time.

The sunlight shone on the young girl, and her figure became even more radiant and charming in the light and shadow. She held a bamboo basket with her hands behind her back, her posture relaxed and elegant, and under the warm sunlight, she looked even more beautiful and intelligent, with an extraordinary temperament.

"Why are you here?" Su Mo hurriedly greeted him with a hint of surprise in his tone.

"Why, I can't come?" The girl raised her head slightly and asked with a hint of playfulness in her eyes.

"It's not that we can't, we agreed to do it later." Su Mo said helplessly.

Yun Jin's smile was as gentle as water, but when she saw the two people beside Su Mo, her eyes were slightly stunned, but she quickly regained her composure.

Yun Jin composed herself, turned to look at the two of them, and introduced herself with a smile, "Hello! My name is Yun Jin!"

Ying also responded hurriedly, "Hello, my name is Ying, her name is Paimeng..."

After the introductions were made, they prepared to go into the house.

Su Mo took out the key and prepared to open the door. Yun Jin approached, turned his back to the two of them, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

"If they want to come, there's nothing I can do."

Su Mo explained in a low voice.

Yun Jin looked at Su Mo with suspicion.

It's as if to say, look, I believe it!

"Even if you don't agree, you still have the guts to follow me?" Yun Jin's tone was filled with a hint of ridicule and resentment.

"Really!" Su Mo answered frankly.

Let’s not talk about Ying for now. She might be understanding and would listen to the advice, but in his opinion, Paimon would definitely be tempted to come and have a free meal, and thus further persuade Ying to be together. This is what it means to move first and then move later!

Yun Jin knew very little about this and just took it as Su Mo's excuse.

"Learn to say no next time!" Yun Jin snorted viciously.

Su Mo joked, "Okay, I'll reject everyone from now on, but I usually can't reject a girl as beautiful as Jin Baoer."

Yun Jin chuckled, "You're so talkative!"

At this moment, Su Mo's hand, which was about to open the door, suddenly shook and the key in his hand almost fell out.

Looking down, he saw a soft hand quietly resting on his waist, applying gentle force.

Yun Jin glared at him coquettishly, as if she was expressing her resentment in this coquettish way.

This guy clearly said when they just separated that they wanted to have dinner together and spend some time alone. He originally thought that coming early would save time, but he turned around and brought two friends, both girls. Isn’t he afraid that his girlfriend will be jealous?

The behavior between the two people naturally could not escape the eyes of the two people behind them.

Ying looked at the couple in front of her who were a little too close to each other, her brows slightly furrowed, and there was a hint of confusion in her tone, "Hey, Paimon, what do you think they are doing? They are opening the door and whispering so close to each other." There was some confusion in her voice, as if she was trying to find a reasonable explanation.

Paimon crossed his arms over his chest, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, with a hint of ridicule, "Hey, what's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

There was a hint of teasing in her voice, as if she could see through Ying's little thoughts.

"What?!" Ying waved her hands quickly and said calmly, "I just think it's just opening a door. Does it take so long? Besides, it's too weird for ordinary friends to be so close to each other." She tried to hide her concern, but her tone still unconsciously revealed a subtle emotion.

Paimon nodded in agreement, still with that nonchalant expression on her face, as if all this had nothing to do with her.
