Genshin Impact: I am the Great General of Liyue

"I'd love to."

Seeing this, Huixin hesitated for a moment and chuckled softly, then turned her head to look at the bowl on the table.

"Hmm... I've heard many stories about Senior Gan Yu from my father since I was very, very young. Although I've always admired my father, I'm always drawn to Senior Gan Yu's gentleness and reliability..."

After a brief pause, Huixin mustered her courage and looked at Gan Yu again.

"I admired you so much back then, and that's why I decided to come and work at Yuehaiting."

"So this is how you see me..."

Hearing what the other person said, Gan Yu lowered her head, lost in thought, and pondered.

At this moment, Huixin calmed herself down and said, "However, in reality, being Yue Haiting's secretary is quite a demanding job. I don't have your excellent work abilities, so I often doubt myself..."

"No, that's not true. Huixin has already done a very good job."

Comforted by Gan Yu, Hui Xin felt a little happier.

"Thank you, senior. Over the years, I've also had my own daughter..."

Paimon was shocked upon hearing this news.

So this beautiful young woman, Huixin, is already a mother of a daughter?!

Ignoring Paimon's commotion, Huixin continued to tell Ganyu her story.

"Under my influence, my daughter has now inherited my dream—to become Yue Haiting's secretary. At first, I was a little worried, after all, this job is not easy, and it is not yet clear whether she has the qualifications. But after this incident... I am now very determined to support her."

Hearing this, Gan Yu was somewhat confused and asked, "Eh, what makes you feel..."

Huixin gave her answer before Gan Yu could finish her question.

"Because she will also meet a senior named Gan Yu in the future. Senior Gan Yu will gently help her and tell her how her mother did things back then... Just thinking about that scene is so beautiful. So—I'm entrusting things to you in twenty years as well, senior."

Looking at the expression on the other person's face, Gan Yu felt as if something had been unlocked in her heart, and a relieved look appeared on her face.

As a mythical beast of the Sea of ​​Clouds, Gan Yu never imagined that she had already merged into Liyue and into the world of mortals.

As the secretary of the Sea of ​​People, Gan Yu never imagined that she had already become an irreplaceable pillar for the short-lived juniors around her.

Lifespans are so long that one's heart slows down, and one gradually becomes unaware of the changes in those around them.

The Seven Stars have changed generation after generation, and their successors have changed generation after generation.

Now, the little boy who used to call her "Sister Gan Yu" has become a grandfather.

Perhaps because the other person will soon reach the end of their life, I will feel sad.

But his will and bloodline have also been passed down.

Gan Yu was never alone; even mortals with short lifespans could accompany immortals throughout their lives in their own way.

"Huixin... I... I never imagined that my existence would have such significance for you..."

Seeing the expression on Gan Yu's face, Hui Xin wasn't too surprised, after all, even a half-immortal beast has emotions and desires.

Looking at the other person with their head bowed, Huixin smiled and said, "Just like how you showed me what my father did before, having you as a 'witness' makes one feel very at ease."

""witness"..."

Upon hearing this word, Gan Yu raised her head and looked up at the ceiling.

"...I have indeed witnessed the history of Liyue Harbor over the past few thousand years. Regardless of its development and changes, or the nuances of human relationships..."

Looking down into the bowl of rice on the table, Gan Yu seemed to see all sorts of things in the world.

"But I used to think that it had no other meaning than bringing me loneliness."

With her spirits lifted, Gan Yu turned to look at the younger generation.

“Huixin, what you just said is very important to me… It made me truly feel the connection between myself and the people of Liyue Harbor, beyond the ‘contract’ I made with the Geo Archon. It made me experience the feeling of being relied upon, recognized, and desired to be witnessed.”

"Of course, you are our one and only Senior Gan Yu!"

Hearing Huixin's words, Gan Yu said with relief, "Yes...that's why I need to respond properly to everyone. Even if I'm really ostracized, I hope I can still fight for it...To live up to your trust in me, I also want to continue fulfilling the 'contract' and continue serving as the secretary of 'Seven Stars'."

Seeing that Gan Yu had finally cleared up the misunderstanding, Ying and Paimeng smiled at each other and began to eat their meal in peace.

"Anyway, I need to go back and check now. Without me, those matters are probably in complete chaos."

As she spoke, Gan Yu stood up and patted her delicate little face.

"Work, work, I don't have time to waste like this!"

"Keep it up, Senior Gan Yu!"

Seeing Gan Yu suddenly leave, Paimon stopped eating and said in a panic, "Hey! Are you leaving just like that? I'm not full yet!"

Unaware of Paimon's wailing, Gan Yu left decisively.

Seeing this, Paimon hurriedly ate a few more mouthfuls of food and then followed Ying after her.

When Huiyuan saw Ying suddenly leave, the aftereffects of the plant growth solution flared up again. After quickly putting the wine jar next to her into the Eye of God space, she hurriedly followed.

Thieves never leave empty-handed, right? Anyway, anything that can be put into the Eye of God's space can be exchanged for Mora, so every little bit counts.

No... Huiyuan's behavior can't be called theft. Don't the protagonists in some RPG games break bottles and jars whenever they see them? This behavior is just one of the necessary conditions for growth!

Meanwhile, on the other side, at the Moon Sea Pavilion...

The three sisters, Baiwen, Baishi, and Baixiao, are on the verge of a mental breakdown due to long hours of work.

The three women were so tired that they went outside to get some fresh air and chat to stay awake.

But after standing for only half a minute, Bai Shi fell asleep standing up because he was too tired.

As his body slowly tilted and he felt the sensation of falling, Bai Shi snapped back to reality and regained his footing.

Bai Wen was also startled and quickly helped Bai Shi up, asking with concern, "A Shi, are you alright...? Did you fall asleep standing up...?"

Just then, footsteps came from the direction of the stone steps to the side.

Upon hearing the voice, Bai Xiao excitedly patted her two sisters on the shoulders and exclaimed, "Look...look who's here!"
