“Huh?”
“Picnic?!”
Barbara’s eyes lit up, and she looked at Gu Chang Ge with anticipation: “Mr. Gu, really?”
“Won’t it be too much of a bother for you guys?”
“Of course not, if Barbara can join us, we would be very happy.”
“Of course,”
“If Barbara would call me Big Brother Gu, I would be even happier.”
“Big, Big Brother Gu~” Barbara pursed her lips and called out shyly.
The girl’s soft voice made Gu Chang Ge intoxicated, and a great ripple stirred within his heart.
Fortunately, Gu Chang Ge quickly calmed down and extended his hand to the girl: “Barbara, forget about those unpleasant things, come with me.”
Barbara was taken aback, a little hesitant.
But soon,
the girl overcame her shyness, blushing as she placed her delicate hand into Gu Chang Ge’s large hand.
Gu Chang Ge smiled silently, tightened his grip on the girl’s soft hand, picked up the backpack beside him, and with a thought, they disappeared from the clifftop.
The next moment,
Barbara was surprised to find that she had appeared by Starfell Lake.
Gu Chang Ge set down the backpack and gently released her soft hand, whispering: “Barbara, we’re here.”
She looked around and, upon seeing the several girls preparing food by the lake, finally realized that she had actually been transported from the clifftop to beside Starfell Lake in an instant!
Hee hee, she’s truly worthy of being Barbara’s fated one, so amazing!
The girl secretly looked up at Gu Chang Ge, but found that he was also looking at her.
For a moment,
Barbara felt both shy and happy, blushing as she turned and ran towards the lake: “Big Brother Gu, I’ll go help out!”
“......”
Watching the girl run off, Gu Chang Ge shook his head helplessly. He wasn’t a savage beast, was she really that scared?
...
In the evening,
the group finally returned to Mondstadt City.
Perhaps because of Gu Chang Ge and the others’ presence, Barbara finally didn’t encounter any fanatical fans blocking her way.
It was only when they reached the front of the headquarters of the Knights of Favonius that Barbara reluctantly bid farewell to the group, turning to walk towards the Church of Favonius.
After watching Barbara leave, Gu Chang Ge held the tired and sleeping Klee and walked into the Knights of Favonius headquarters with the three girls.
Reaching Jean’s office,
upon seeing Klee asleep in Gu Chang Ge’s arms, Jean immediately walked over and took her, carrying her into the nearby rest room.
Not long after,
Jean came back and said: “You’re finally back. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Have you eaten?”
Gu Chang Ge and the others nodded quickly, even Paimon was no exception.
They had already eaten a lot at Starfell Lake and couldn’t possibly eat any more.
Seeing this, Jean blinked and looked at Gu Chang Ge expectantly: “Since you’ve all eaten, how about we leave now?”
Gu Chang Ge: “......”
Was there any need to rush?
It wasn’t even dark yet. That slacker, Venti, was probably still in the city, singing for money to buy wine.
“Jean, you’ve been working here the whole time and haven’t eaten anything yet, have you?”
“The time I agreed upon with Venti is in the evening. We don’t need to rush now.”
“You eat something first. We’ll go later in the evening.”
Jean pursed her lips. The situation with Dvalin wasn’t over yet. She was thinking about their meeting tonight and had no appetite.
However, after looking at them, she nodded.
“Alright, I’ll listen to you.”
“Chang Ge, Lyria, Traveler, Paimon, if you don’t want to stay here, you can walk around the Knights of Favonius headquarters. Everyone knows you, they won’t stop you.”
Hearing this, Paimon and Lumine immediately became interested, looking at Gu Chang Ge with anticipation.
Gu Chang Ge twitched the corner of his mouth and looked at the He Wholia beside him, who just winked playfully.
Enmmm......
Gu Chang Ge had no choice. Although he didn’t want to move, he couldn’t really refuse in the current situation.
Alright, a walk wouldn’t hurt. It would be good for digestion.
Thinking about it,
Gu Chang Ge nodded.
Seeing this, Lumine smiled happily, clapping her hands with Paimon excitedly: “Great, Lyria, Chang Ge, let’s go!”
Gu Chang Ge was speechless. It’s just a Knights of Favonius headquarters, what’s so interesting about it.
Moreover,
However, since he had agreed, he naturally wouldn’t go back on his word. Without hesitation, he led the three girls out of Jean’s office.
After watching them leave, Jean sat on the sofa, pondering for a moment, then walked to the desk, took out a few pieces of bread and a bottle of water from a drawer, and ate them in her office.
Clearly,
she was using this as her dinner for the evening.
From the looks of it, this wasn’t the first time.
......
The Church of Favonius,
in a warm room.
After returning, Barbara soaked in the bathtub, recalling the day’s events.
Because she had been treating injured knights for the past few days, her supply of herbs was running low, so she went out to gather herbs in the morning.
But she didn’t expect to encounter some unreasonable fans who tried to stop her from leaving.
Fortunately, she had the God’s Eye and used elemental power to escape their pursuit.
But even though she escaped, those people already knew where she was going to gather herbs and were waiting for her, making it impossible for her to gather anything.
Just when she was feeling disheartened, Gu Chang Ge appeared!
He heard all the embarrassing things she said.
But,
Gu Chang Ge didn’t mock her for her embarrassing words. Instead, he kindly invited her to go on a picnic!
Thinking back now,
she wasn’t unlucky today, but rather quite lucky!
Although,
this kind of luck wasn’t what she wanted.
Instead, it brought her a lot of pain…
“Ugh…”
“I really like Big Brother Gu!”
“I just wonder if Big Brother Gu likes me?”
“Right!”
“Isn’t my performance coming up in a few days?”
“How about I invite Big Brother Gu… and Lyria and the others to watch my performance?”
Speaking of which,
Barbara’s fair face turned pink, her bright eyes filled with a shy look: “I think Big Brother Gu and Lyria and the others won’t refuse, right?”
“Barbara, don’t worry, Big Brother Gu and the others will definitely agree!”
“Go for it, Barbara, you’re the best!”
The girl waved her small fists and cheered her on with full energy.
