Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Inside Yunlai Inn.

Paimon lay peacefully on the bed, breathing evenly.

I don’t know when Ying woke up. She sat at the table, her hands on her chin, in a daze.

Suddenly, she noticed that the rain outside the window had stopped.

When she opened the window, the air was filled with a fresh scent of earth, which made her feel refreshed.

The early morning sunlight shines through the window into the room, adding a touch of warmth to this quiet space.

At this moment, the door was gently pushed open. Ying turned her head to look at the door and saw Shao Yun walking in.

His wet clothes were stained with blood, and he looked a little disheveled.

"Shao Yun, you're finally back." Ying walked forward and said with concern.

Shao Yun nodded. When he saw Ying, a tired but satisfied smile appeared on his face. He said with relief, "Yes, I'm back."

After saying that, Shao Yun took out an exquisite box from his backpack and handed it to Ying.

The box contained the ointment that Ying'er had given him several days ago.

"Sorry, I got it many days ago, but I forgot to give it to you." Shao Yun said apologetically.

Ying took the ointment, gently opened the box, and a faint fragrance wafted into her nose.

She looked at the bloodstains on Shao Yun's clothes, and a complex emotion surged in her heart.

"I've been worried about you these days." Ying said softly, her voice full of concern and worry. "It seems that Huachu and Jianqiu were killed by you."

Ying had already guessed what had happened, but still wanted to hear Shao Yun's words in person.

Shao Yun nodded without denying it. He said calmly, "Kill them all. Both of them are dead. It's over."

After hearing Shao Yun's calm and cold narration, Ying asked softly, "Are you feeling better now?"

Shao Yun looked up at Ying, showing a bitter smile, and said self-deprecatingly: "You said that as if I were a madman who would feel uncomfortable if I didn't kill someone."

Ying noticed the glaring white bloody fragments embedded in Shao Yun's flesh. She walked a few steps closer, pointed at the fragments and asked, "Is that... a ceramic fragment in your hand?"

There was a slight tremor in her voice, and she didn't dare to think of the worst.

Shao Yun looked down at the skull fragments that had pierced into the flesh, then raised his head calmly and said to Ying, "No, this is Hua Chu's skull fragment. She cursed you to die miserably, so I beat her to death."

Shao Yun narrated a horrible incident in a calm tone. Smashing a person's skull abruptly must be a very angry state to do such a thing!

An indescribable emotion surged in Ying's heart, but she didn't say much. She just walked to Shao Yun silently, gently pulled up the corner of his clothes and said, "Let me help you deal with the wound. It hurts just looking at it."

Shao Yun was pulled by Ying to sit at a table nearby.

Ying's hands were focused on operating the tweezers, carefully picking out the sharp skull fragments.

"If it hurts, remember to tell me."

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun eased the tense atmosphere with a relaxed tone.

"Can you make me feel less pain if I tell you so?"

However, Ying did not laugh or respond as he wished.

All her attention was focused on her hands, and she didn't look up at him until she had completely cleaned Shao Yun's hands.

She glanced at Shao Yun's bloodstained clothes, frowned slightly, and said softly: "Take off your clothes."

Shao Yun was stunned, a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face.

"Ah? This is inappropriate, aren't you saying..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ying.

"What are you thinking about? Your clothes are all covered in blood. Paimon will wake up soon and you'll scare her!"

Shao Yun suddenly realized what was going on. He thought he was trying to "comfort" himself, but he was overthinking it.

He took off the blood-stained brown coat, revealing a blue shirt. However, surprisingly, the shirt was also stained with blood and mixed with a few pieces of meat.

At this moment, Ying looked at the bloodstained shirt and the pieces of meat that had fallen off, and said helplessly: "Forget it, just go to the bathroom, take off all these clothes, and then give me a good bath!"

Shao Yun nodded, turned and walked towards the bathroom.

However, just as Shao Yun stepped into the bathroom, Ying followed him in.

Shao Yun turned his head and looked at her suspiciously: "Ying, what are you doing..."

Ying didn't answer, but locked the bathroom door with her backhand, and then said lightly: "I'll take a shower with you."

A trace of surprise flashed across Shao Yun's face, and he looked at Ying in confusion. She once said that she would have further contact with him only after meeting her brother.

Is there a benefit? But the bathroom is too unromantic...

"You want to be beautiful!" Ying saw through Shao Yun's thoughts. She rolled her eyes at Shao Yun and continued, "It's just a shower. Also, I want to discuss something with you."

Shao Yun felt a little embarrassed, covered his face and said, "Okay."

Shao Yun sat quietly on the edge of the bathtub and took off his sharpshooter suit piece by piece.

As his clothes gently slid off, he revealed his solid muscle lines and healthy skin tone, and sat in the bathtub.

Ying stood aside and slowly poured warm water into the bathtub.

As the water flowed in, the mist quickly spread and the entire bathroom was shrouded in a layer of mist.

Ying subconsciously reached out to untie her skirt, but just before untying the hem of her skirt, she suddenly remembered something, turned around quickly, and said to Shao Yun: "Close your eyes, don't look."

Shao Yun obediently closed his eyes, and heard the sound of clothes rubbing against his skin, followed by a slight sound of falling into water.

Then, the sound of water gradually increased, like a soft piece of music, echoing in the small bathroom.

After a while, Ying's voice came, with a hint of laziness and comfort.

"Open your eyes."

Shao Yun slowly opened his eyes and saw the warm water in the bathtub emitting a faint heat. Ying was sitting in the bathtub with her back to him. Her wet hair stuck to her back, making her look even more charming.

Shao Yun's eyes unconsciously fell on Ying's white and tender back. His cheeks couldn't help but turn slightly red, and he said awkwardly: "Ying, is this appropriate?"

Ying seemed not to notice Shao Yun's embarrassment. She pointed at the towel hanging next to the bathtub and said, "Please help me rub my back. Paimeng's strength is too weak and he can't rub it clean."

Shao Yun took a deep breath, picked up the towel, gently dipped it in some warm water, and then carefully began to scrub Ying's back.

His fingers slid gently across Ying's skin, feeling the silky smooth touch.

His heartbeat involuntarily quickened, but he tried to stay calm and not let his emotions affect Ying.

"How's the intensity?"

Ying lay down beside the bathtub and said, "Okay, go ahead."

After rubbing Ying's back, Shao Yun was afraid that he could not control himself, so he hung the towel on the edge of the bathtub, turned his back, and the two of them soaked in the bathtub back to back.

After soaking for a while, Ying spoke first, saying, "Shao Yun, guess where we're going next?"

Shao Yun's face flushed, and he said, "Wherever you and Paimeng go, I'll go there. I'll follow your orders."

Ying turned around and looked at Shao Yun's back, then threw herself on Shao Yun's back and hugged Shao Yun's neck.

Shao Yun felt a foreign body behind him, his heart pounding, and he blushed and said, "Ying..."

Ying put her mouth close to Shao Yun's ear and whispered softly, "Don't think too much!"

"How could I not think about it? You know how much damage you can do to me." Shao Yun said helplessly, "I'm not a saint who doesn't care about worldly matters!"

Ying lay quietly on Shao Yun's broad back, her hands tightly around Shao Yun's neck, her voice soft but firm:

"After you find your brother, you can think whatever you want. But now, listen to me."

Shao Yun felt the warmth behind him, took a deep breath, calmed his inner turmoil, and slapped himself on the face to remind himself to stay calm.

"Okay, you tell me, I'll listen."

Ying began to tell her plan.

"After the ceremony of sending off the immortal, Zhongli mentioned that if we continue our journey, Inazuma would be a good destination. But I hope you can give me some advice. Your opinion is also very important to me."

"I really don't have any suggestions. You can go to Inazuma. But are you really determined to go so early?"

I haven’t met my brother-in-law yet. How can I go to the next country so early?

Ying rocked gently on Shao Yun's back, then she stretched out one hand and gently scooped up a handful of water from the bathtub.

"Not now. We still have a lot of things to do. At least wait until I finish exploring Tianqiu Valley. Also, wait until the new clothes you bought for me arrive, then we can consider it."

Shao Yun frowned slightly when he heard this.

"You're right, that new dress... I've ordered it for over a month, why haven't they arrived yet?"

Ying gently pinched Shao Yun's cheek and a mischievous smile appeared on her face.

"I don't know either. Anyway, I haven't received it. This is your problem!"

Shao Yun let Ying's hand gently pinch his face. After she let go, he smiled and said, "Looks like I have to go to the Adventurer's Association to ask..."

……

The serious business was finished, and Shao Yun, who was soaking in the bathtub, just let Ying press on his back.

I didn't move at all, I was completely motionless.

When the water was about to cool, Ying pressed even closer to Shao Yun's back and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Shao Yun, I'm sticking to you like this, don't you really have any other thoughts?"

Shao Yun was stunned for a moment. His heartbeat accelerated unconsciously as Ying got closer. He turned his head and looked at Ying's face.

"Didn't you tell me not to think too much?"

Before she finished her words, Ying bit Shao Yun's ear with her lips. The action was both naughty and teasing. She laughed softly and said, "You are too obedient. You believe everything I say?"

Shao Yun felt a surge of blood rushing to his head and asked, "Can I still not obey now?"

Ying patted Shao Yun's back gently and said mischievously, "No more waiting after the expiration date. If you dare to have any unreasonable thoughts now, you will have to pack up and leave!"

There is no third person in the world who can say such words to me!

As for that demon, it is not human!

Shao Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head, feeling extremely annoyed. This bath was so frustrating, why was he so obedient?

……

"Your Highness, he really didn't harm your blood relatives. He is truly an upright gentleman. You can put down your sword now!"

"Really?"

"It's true."

"No, just because he is a gentleman today doesn't mean he will be the same tomorrow. Hurry and open the portal. I want to prevent any trouble. I will take advantage of this great opportunity to kill him!"

"Your Highness, calm down!"
