Chapter 43
You wouldn't want to make little Klee sad, would you, Longge?

Lumine stretched out her delicate white hand and stroked her smooth chin, lost in thought.

For her, the place she stayed didn't really matter. She didn't care about living conditions, she was used to it.

But thinking about Klee, Lumine's heart softened.

Though Klee mistakenly thought Gu Chang Ge was her father, she didn't know anything. What was wrong with her?

Why not stay here? It would save Klee from being sad tomorrow morning.

Thinking of this,

Lumine smiled slightly and turned to look at Gu Chang Ge, saying softly, "Chang Ge, Klee really depends on you. How about we stay at the Knights of Favonius’ headquarters tonight as guests?"

Upon hearing this, Paimon nodded repeatedly. "Yeah, yeah, Traveler’s right. You wouldn’t want to make little Klee sad, would you, Chang Ge?"

“......”

The corners of Gu Chang Ge’s mouth twitched slightly. It was true, but why did Paimon’s words sound so strange?

"If that's the case, then we'll bother Master Jean tonight."

Jean’s heart leaped with joy, and an involuntary smile appeared on her face. "No bother, no bother at all!"

"Lisa, don't go back tonight either. Help me arrange rooms for Chang Ge and them."

Lisa looked at her best friend with a smirk, feeling quite surprised in her heart.

Was her best friend falling for him?

Wasn't everything fine this morning?

Did something happen during the day that she didn't know about?

However, thinking about Gu Chang Ge, Lisa had to admit that it was normal for Jean to fall for him. After all, even she herself had been somewhat moved.

Noticing Lisa’s meaningful gaze, Jean felt a little guilty and avoided her gaze.

Lisa smiled slightly and did not refuse. She nodded. "Okay, then I won’t go back tonight.”

"But don’t bother me tomorrow, Jean. As a lady, I must have enough sleep. Otherwise, I’ll be furious.”

"Traveler, little Paimon, come upstairs with me. I'll take you to your rooms.”

“As for the little one and Miss Liya, I’ll take care of them.”

Lumine blinked. Why did it feel a little strange?

However,

she had been quite tired today accompanying Lisa to the Temple of the Four Winds to clear out those monsters.

So she didn’t think much about it. She held Paimon in her arms and followed Lisa upstairs.

Soon,

only the three of them remained in the living room.

Facing Gu Chang Ge, Jean felt a little embarrassed, but luckily, there was Hueriya with them, not alone. Otherwise, she didn’t know how to face him.

With a blushing face, she walked to Hueriya’s side and whispered softly, "Miss Hueriya, Chang Ge, I’ll take you to your rooms to rest.”

Of course, neither of them objected.

Soon,

under Jean’s guidance, they each entered their respective rooms.

Gu Chang Ge’s room was the last one arranged.

Entering the room,

only Gu Chang Ge and Jean were left.

Facing Gu Chang Ge alone, the blush on Jean's face became even more obvious. Lowering her head, she whispered softly, "I suddenly fell asleep this afternoon. It was rude of me. I hope Chang Ge won't mind."

Gu Chang Ge raised his eyebrows. Her face was so red?

Did she remember everything?

For a moment,

Gu Chang Ge felt a little guilty.

After all,

it was because of him that Jean did that!

"Ahem, it’s fine."

"Although I don’t know why, I can tell that you’re very tired."

"Protecting Mondstadt is indeed important, but Jean, you should also take care of yourself."

"Otherwise, even the tough Dandelion Knight will have a day when she collapses."

Upon hearing this, Jean secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, Gu Chang Ge didn’t mention those embarrassing things.

As for Gu Chang Ge’s suggestion, she felt a little helpless. Sometimes, it wasn’t that she didn’t want to rest, but that she couldn’t rest!

"Yeah, thank you for reminding me. I’ll pay attention."

"Chang Ge, you should rest early. I’ll go now. Good night."

"Good night."

Gu Chang Ge smiled slightly. "Jean, you should rest early too. Good night."

Jean nodded silently and turned to leave the room. As she was about to close the door, Jean raised her head to look at Gu Chang Ge. "Chang Ge, thank you for the clothes!"

As soon as the words left her lips,

Jean, like a startled little rabbit, ran away quickly with a blushing face.

Gu Chang Ge twitched at the corner of his mouth.

This girl seemed a bit silly!

Wasn’t she telling him clearly that she remembered everything by acting like that!

After a while,

Gu Chang Ge shook his head and sat directly on the bed.

However,

he had no intention of sleeping at this moment.

He had just tasted sweetness last night, but was forced to sleep separately tonight. How could he fall asleep?

But Gu Chang Ge knew Hueriya. Since they were in someone else’s house, she would definitely not sneak over tonight.

Should he go over there?

As soon as this thought appeared, Gu Chang Ge extinguished it.

Because,

it wouldn’t be appropriate for him to go over either. After all, this wasn’t his home, but Jean’s.

If he was discovered, he wouldn’t care, after all, he had a thick face.

But Hueriya couldn’t. With her thin skin, she would probably collapse.

"Sigh, forget it. Who made me stupid enough to agree? Just bear with it."

...

On the other side,

next to Gu Chang Ge’s room,

Hueriya lay in bed but didn’t rest either. She turned her head to look at the wall.

She knew that Master Chang Ge was in the next room.

Gu Chang Ge had just tasted sweetness, and so had she.

She even wanted to sneak over and lie in Gu Chang Ge’s arms, but she didn’t have the guts in the end.

After all, Lumine and Lisa’s rooms were nearby. What if they heard something?

Even if they didn’t discover anything, she was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to get up tomorrow. If that happened, everyone would know.

Thinking of this,

Hueriya only felt her face burning. No!

She absolutely couldn’t go. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to face anyone tomorrow!

Thinking of this,

Hueriya’s face flushed red. She forcefully suppressed the ripples in her heart and closed her eyes.

At the same time,

Lumine and Paimon were leaning against the headboard, feeling the soft mattress in front of them. They smiled contentedly.

“Hey!”

“That’s right!”

"Traveler, we seem to have forgotten something very important!”

Lumine was stunned for a moment. She looked at Paimon with some confusion and asked, "What is it?"

Paimon looked serious. "Traveler, have you forgotten?”

“Master Jean clearly said that she would give us this month’s allowance when we returned to the Knights of Favonius, but now, she hasn’t given it to us yet. Has she forgotten?"

Lumine: “......”

She thought it was something important. So it was about Mora!

"Little Paimon, you shouldn’t worry too much. Master Jean wouldn’t forget."

“Don’t forget, we’re still at Master Jean’s place.”

“Okay, I’m so sleepy now. I’m going to rest. Little Paimon, go to sleep too."

After speaking,

Lumine didn’t hesitate. She slowly lay down on the bed and closed her eyes.

Paimon blinked in confusion. Didn’t she forget?

But…

Forget it!

I don’t want to think about it anymore. Let’s go to sleep.
