Today was Friday again.
In the afternoon, Miss Ganyu came to the shop as usual, bringing some fruit.
Although the dream from a few days ago was a bit awkward, Shenhe didn't show any signs of it.
Ganyu also didn't act any differently around Shenhe.
Xia Zhi observed Miss Ganyu.
After drinking the "Sunsettia Soup," a week had passed, and Miss Ganyu's figure had also changed somewhat.
The most noticeable change was the buttons on her shirt, which had been fitting before but were now straining.
Clearly, her size had increased.
In the evening, Xia Zhi gave Miss Ganyu her usual massage.
The two were so close now.
Xia Zhi noticed that Miss Ganyu's scent had changed slightly today.
As a vegetarian, her scent had always been very fresh, like green grass in the mountains covered in morning dew.
But now, her scent carried a hint of something else.
It was very subtle.
Most people wouldn't notice it.
Only someone with Xia Zhi's [Grandmaster Cooking] skill, with his keen sense of smell, could detect this slight difference in her otherwise light scent.
Xia Zhi kept this observation to himself.
Perhaps this was just a peculiarity of the qilin bloodline...
--
Ganyu closed her eyes.
The two were so close now.
She felt her body growing warmer.
Her mind was also filled with all sorts of improper thoughts.
She pursed her lips, feeling as if her former self was drifting further away.
"Miss Ganyu, is it okay to touch your horns?"
"It's... fine..."
Mr. Xia's soft question, accompanied by his warm breath, brushed against her horns.
Ganyu's eyes grew hazy.
If this continues... I think... I might break...
--
At night, in the room.
Shenhe and Ganyu sat on the bed chatting.
Shenhe carefully painted her nails, then took out some lipstick and applied it to her lips.
After finishing, Shenhe stood up and said, "Senior Sister, I'm going to get something to eat."
Ganyu nodded knowingly, "Okay, bring me something too."
"Sure."
Shenhe left the room.
After a while.
Ganyu shifted her gaze from the door to the wall.
Her eyes struggled for a moment, but she still obediently moved closer and pressed her ear against it.
I'll just listen for a bit!
--
On the other side of the wall.
Shenhe pursed her lips, her eyes hazy.
She felt like she was about to break too.
Xia Zhi shifted his God's Eye over a bit.
Let's see what Miss Ganyu is doing.
Huh?
Miss Ganyu is actually doing this!
Shenhe is your closest junior sister!
How could you do this while she's away!
Xia Zhi retracted his God's Eye.
One glance was enough.
--
Shenhe straightened her clothes, took out the pastries she had prepared, and opened the door.
"Senior Sister, I'm back."
"Oh."
"Here's the pastry for you."
"Thank you, Junior Sister."
Although they had both secretly done something naughty, Shenhe didn't show any signs of it.
Ganyu also didn't act any differently around Shenhe.
The two smiled at each other.
Sisterly love.
--
Xia Zhi's mind was now at peace.
He was pondering a question.
Miss Ganyu's condition seemed a bit off.
During the massage today, he had already noticed.
Her body had become perfect.
This was the miraculous effect of the "Sunsettia Soup."
But on the other hand, her body had also become extremely sensitive.
Completely different from before.
It was as if she had suddenly ripened from a green fruit.
"Perhaps I should ask my cousin about this."
After all, Xia Ci was the God of Wisdom and knew everything about the customs of the continent.
But this matter involved Miss Ganyu's privacy, so directly asking might not be appropriate.
"Better to spend some points."
Xia Zhi thought for a moment, opened the shop, and searched for an item.
[Encyclopedia of Spirit Beasts]
Quality: Silver.
Type: Book.
Traits: None.
Effect: Contains knowledge about various spirit beasts from different realms.
Hidden Effect: None.
Price: 50 points.
Xia Zhi bought it.
A very thick book appeared before him.
Xia Zhi flipped through it and found the entry on qilins.
After carefully reading the contents, his expression became a bit strange.
"So... Miss Ganyu is... entering a special period?"
--
In the dream world.
They were still playing five-player games in the canyon.
After a few rounds, Xia Ci and Xia Zhen went off to continue researching the server, while Xia Zhi, Shenhe, and Ganyu watched videos together.
Xia Zhi randomly selected one and started it.
It was "Animal World."
A familiar narrator's voice came through the speakers.
"Spring has arrived, and it's time for the animals to..."
Xia Zhi's high luck stat seemed to have activated at an inappropriate time.
He coughed and said, "This is a documentary. Let's watch a movie instead."
But Miss Ganyu spoke up, "No, let's watch this. I want to learn more about the animals of another world."
Xia Zhi nodded, "Alright."
After watching for a while, Xia Zhi glanced sideways at Miss Ganyu.
She was intently watching the screen, the light from it reflecting in her eyes, giving off a strange glow.
He had a feeling that Miss Ganyu had suddenly become dangerous.
