Mandrill volunteered to go home with me after traveling through Genshin Impact

"Well...thank you." Shuangxue was very embarrassed and didn't know what to say except thank you.

"Thank you everyone for preparing for my birthday, and thank you everyone for remembering. I'm sorry to bother you."

"It's a small matter, no trouble." Hutao waved his hand.

"Hey, this is a friend's wish. On the other hand, I didn't prepare a gift. Isn't it bad to just barge in like this?"

"...Wendy, do you feel embarrassed when you eat and drink so much?" Shuangxue said helplessly. Wendy usually eats and drinks, but she never feels embarrassed.

"Hey?" Wendy then started chatting with a few more people, but Shuangxue didn't interrupt because she was really looking forward to it.

"Sometimes when I look at the mature way he speaks, I suspect that he is some kind of immortal who is paying a private visit in disguise."

Mandrill felt a little guilty after hearing this, and Shuangxue immediately covered the corners of her mouth with her sleeves. At this time, Hutao asked Mandrill curiously.

"Hey, Great Sage, you are an immortal, tell me, is this possible?" Hutao looked forward to it.

Mandrill suddenly said with a guilty conscience. "I...I'm sorry, I'm only good at killing demons. I have little knowledge and have never heard of..." Paimon wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Shuangxue's eyes.

"Ahem, Hutao, please don't embarrass Mandrill. How could Mandrill know? You might as well ask me, maybe I know~"

Hearing this, Wendy and Zhongli both looked over. Shuangxue looked at their expressions and felt like laughing inexplicably.

"Even the immortals don't know, so how do you know?"

"Hey, so I don't know, I just lied to you." Shuangxue could hardly suppress her lips and almost laughed out loud. Hu Tao cast a look that was indeed true.

Wendy and Zhongli started to talk to each other about business again, and then listened to Hu Tao read her poem. Except for Wendy, everyone seemed a little helpless.

Xiangling whispered to Xingqiu, "Xingqiu, can you lend me a few books to read when you get back? Choose the ones you think are good in writing. I don't know if my literary level is not up to standard, a little... I can’t tell whether it’s good or bad.”

"I think...maybe it's not your problem..." Chongyun said seriously.

"... To be honest, I can't judge whether it's good or bad. This probably belongs to Hall Master Hu alone...?" Shuangxue has also learned a lot of ancient poems since she was a child, but Hu Tao's writing is really difficult to evaluate.

"Speaking of which, why are the singers here? Are they also here to participate in the Sea Lantern Festival?" Paimon asked sincerely.

"Yes, I went to Mondstadt to play around. When I was about to come back, Wendy came back with me and said she was going to participate in the Sea Lantern Festival." Shuangxue said.

"Yes, speaking of it, I saw you entering New Moon Pavilion one after another before, but no one noticed that I was there. Should I say that I hid it well, or did some people ignore the news?" Wendy looked at To Shuangxue and Zhongli.

The reason why Wendy looked at Shuangxue was because Shuangxue even looked at Wendy when they passed by before, and Wendy also saw the smile in Shuangxue's eyes.

"Hey? I did see you at that time, but I didn't know what you were going to do, so...hey?" Shuangxue directly gloated.

"Haha... Liyue Port is bustling with people every time during the Hai Lantern Festival. Everyone is busy admiring the lanterns and shopping. Please know that impromptu travel is inevitable and no one can predict the movements of others."

"Now, old and new friends are gathering together to celebrate Shuangxue's birthday. In this situation, please allow me to offer you a toast with tea instead of wine," Zhongli said.

Mandrill seemed a little nervous when he heard this, Shuangxue took Mandrill's hand. "Mandrill, I'm full. Come with me out to get some fresh air." After coming out, Mandrill didn't seem so nervous.

"Mandrill, are you okay?"

"I... can't say anything..."

"Haha, I know, it's all Wendy and Zhongli's fault. It made me laugh. Wendy and Zhongli pretended to be the same. I don't know, I really thought it was the first time they met."

Mandrill seemed a little helpless when he saw this. After a while, he continued.

"The God of Wind is free in nature, and his temper is as free as the sound of his flute. It is easy for such a god to get along well with humans. And this is probably something I will never be able to do."

"What's wrong? It's not important. Just be yourself. Look, you and I are very good. I like everything about you." Shuangxue said and grabbed Mandrill's face again.

"Hehe, to tell you the truth, I'm actually looking forward to it today. It's rare to see you so embarrassed. Usually when I tease you, I can only see your shy look, so I'm looking forward to it today."

"Well..." Mandrill was helpless at Shuangxue's behavior. He didn't remember his birthday, but expected him to look embarrassed. Shuangxue immediately hugged Mandrill again.

"Hey, you won't be angry that I'm eating melon and watching a show, right?"

"No..." He was just a little helpless about this. At this time, Xiangling suddenly ran out to look for them.

"I found it, so you are here. Oh, I'm sorry, did I disturb you?" Xiangling said apologetically when she saw Shuangxue still holding Mandrill.

Shuangxue quickly let go of her hand. "Ahem, no, no."

"Sorry to bother you, this is the almond tofu I prepared, specially brought to you today. I'll leave now without disturbing you." Then Xiangling left.

"Well... let's go back too."

"You are now back, and the incense in this stove has been burned out. Then let the most distinguished guest here refill the incense and light the fire for everyone."

"Then speaking of the most distinguished guest here...it must be guest guest Zhongli." Wendy pointed at Zhongli and said.

Shuangxue had been looking forward to this scene for a long time, so she just stood next to it and ate the melon.

"Speaking of it, everyone can recommend a candidate, so I naturally think that the hall master should be allowed to continue his incense."

Hutao then recommended Xiangling, and Xiangling threw the hot potato to Xingqiu, and Xingqiu threw it to Chongyun.

"Ah? What about me? With the Great Sage of Conquering Demons here, it's not my turn, right?" Chongyun threw this to Mandrill again in fear.

At this moment, Shuangxue was enjoying herself eating melons and watching a show, but the next second she heard what Mandrill said. "Since today is Shuangxue's birthday, why not let Shuangxue come."

Shuangxue, who was enjoying eating melon, was suddenly caught off guard by this sentence. "An? Why does this have to do with me? You've already said that you are the most distinguished guest. How can I be counted as an ordinary person without any talent?"

"Shuangxue, you are not ordinary at all. Like the travelers, you are from other worlds." Paimon thought that the others also knew, because she felt that Shuangxue did not hide it deliberately.

"Paimon!" Shuangxue wanted to stop but it was too late. Shuangxue did not hide it later, but Hutao Chongyun and others did not know about it.

(It’s New Year’s Eve this year. I hope we can all go to a better future. I hope my book will have better results next year. Thank you for your company along the way. Otherwise, I might not be able to write so much and stop updating. )
