Genshin Impact: Lady Keqing wants to monopolize me, a playboy

The area from Lishajiao to Tianheng Mountain.

It is the place where exorcists gather.

In ancient times, when the tradition of alchemy was still there, this place also had a prosperous past.

It’s a pity that in today’s Liyue, the talents of the exorcist family have dwindled, the inheritance has been cut off, and it is no longer as prosperous as it once was.

Walking on this path opened up by our predecessors.

Hill and Shen He remained silent.

The eyes are the windows to the soul, and Hill could feel Shen He's complex emotions through them.

She has something on her mind.

It’s a pity that Hill didn’t know Shen He’s past. All he could do was to stay with her and help her without hesitation when she needed help.

“I used to play here when I was little.”

"I was different then than I am now. I wasn't so indifferent."

"I can cry, be happy, and get angry like a normal child."

Shen He looked quietly at the scenery in the distance and slowly told Hill what was in his mind.

Hill looked at Shen He; the other's complex emotions formed a sharp contrast with his calm face.

If it happened to anyone else, this might be contradictory, but if it happened to Shen He, everything was normal.

However, Hill had an inexplicable premonition in his heart.

After this incident, Shen He might be able to completely let go of his past.

What will she become by then?

It is to abandon everything in this world and become more indifferent.

Or you can just let it go and start a new life.

No matter what Shenhe chooses, Hill will help.

You know, no matter how powerful they are, they are just mortals after all.

A person's life is but a fleeting moment.

In that case, why not live the life you want?

"Let's keep going, we're almost there."

"it is good."

The two of them strolled along the mountain path. Although they were silent, the atmosphere was not depressing and could even be considered light-hearted.

"Do you see the little village in the distance?"

“That’s where I lived when I was a kid.”

Shen He pointed to the village in the distance and said calmly.

She didn't know what expression she should use, so she just kept her normal look.

In silence, the two continued walking towards the small village.

Shen He is about to return to his hometown, but he doesn't know what emotions he should show.

Sad, depressed, or angry? Probably none of them.

Two hundred steps, one hundred steps, fifty steps.

The short distance felt particularly long to the two of them.

But the road has to end, and things will eventually end. Shen He returned to the home she remembered for the first time.

However, everything here has changed and it is no longer the same as she remembered.

Overgrown with weeds and deserted, it seemed to be the best description of the scene before us.

Shen He's eyes and face were dazed, and he walked aimlessly in the village like a sleepwalker.

"I thought I would berate him for bringing back memories."

"I rebuke him for abandoning me without mercy."

"But now that things have come to this, I feel particularly peaceful in my heart."

"Why is this?"

From being overwhelmed with thoughts at the beginning to being calm now, Shen He felt a little confused.

Yes, it’s been too long, so long that I’ve let it go a long time ago.

Shen He stretched out her hand to block the scorching sun in the sky. She didn't know why she did this, it seemed that she just wanted to do it.

Or...

A look back at destiny.

"It's so hot. I wish it would rain today."

In front of Shen He, a little girl shielded the sun with her hands, frowning and complaining.

"This is..me?"

The already blurred memories appeared in Shen He's mind.

She subconsciously walked forward, wanting to touch the other person.

But before he got close, the scene in front of him disappeared.

"It is going to rain."

Shen He stretched out his hand, waiting for the raindrops to fall.

Hill looked at the clear sky. He didn't understand why Shen He was so sure.

"It will happen. It will happen."

Shen He said with a firm face, as if it was inevitable that it would rain today.

Hill didn't say much. He walked to Shen He and stretched out his hand, imitating her, but he stretched out his left hand.

The moment Hill stretched out his hand, the sky suddenly changed.

The sky was clear just now, but in a short while, it was covered by dark clouds.

In an instant, raindrops fell from the sky impatiently.

Without any shelter, the two people standing directly in the open space were naturally soaked.

But to the two of them, it didn't matter.

“It actually rained.”

Hill opened his mouth wide, he thought this was magical.

Is this the legendary sixth sense of girls?

While Hill was stunned, Shen He stretched out his second hand, and his purpose was very simple, he wanted to catch more raindrops.

Soon, she had her hands full.

The moment the water in his hands was full, Shen He immediately turned around and poured the rain water in his hands towards Hill.

Hill was caught off guard and his face was covered with rain.

What happened?

Hill subconsciously wiped the water off his face with his hands, but he forgot that his hands were also filled with water.

So, the result is predictable.

Not only did he fail to wipe the water off his face, but he got hit again instead.

"Haha."

Shen He laughed out loud. She didn't expect that Hill, who was always very smart, would do such a funny thing.

When Hill heard Shen He's girlish laughter, he turned his head in disbelief.

Shen He, who was usually cold, actually smiled, which was very rare.

That brilliant smile struck Hill's heart straight and captured him easily.

Hill wiped his eyes and wanted to see Shen He's appearance clearly.

But as the rain grew heavier, his vision was obscured by the continuous raindrops.

He was unable to see the whole picture clearly and could only imagine the hazy and blurred face.

I don’t know when I will see it again, or maybe I will never see it again.

Thinking of this, Hill felt particularly sorry.

The rainstorm came and went quickly, and just when Hill was about to do something, the sky cleared up.

Rain is like nature's cleanser.

The stone steps washed by rain became exceptionally clean.

Even the air becomes exceptionally fresh, and taking a deep breath makes people feel exceptionally comfortable.

Although there were some regrets in this trip, Shen He also resolved his worries, so it can be said to have ended successfully.

Hill smiled inexplicably and looked at Shen He.

Perhaps feeling that Hill was looking at him, Shen He turned around and looked at Hill as well.

"Master gave me the red string to suppress my mind, but it was only after walking with you these days that I truly understood the key."

"Power is a floating thing. If there is nothing to carry it, it will be meaningless. This is what my master told me."

"In the past, I was puzzled."

"But now, I seem to have found the answer."

"You are the red rope that can really lock me up."

"If you understand this feeling, please stay by my side."

Shen He walked up to Xier, took his hand, and said seriously.

The girl's heavy trust seemed particularly heavy. Hill, who had never seen such a scene, fell into deep thought. How should he choose?
