The members of the Knights of Favonius witnessed a rare scene: Acting Grand Master Jean, uncharacteristically, was in a furious rage in her office, a fact many overheard. Afterward, Acting Grand Master Jean, clutching a document, stormed out of the Knights of Favonius headquarters and headed straight for the nearby Goth Grand Hotel.
Upon seeing Acting Grand Master Jean, the Inazuma officials at the hotel's front desk immediately stepped forward to greet her, but Acting Grand Master Jean's aura at that moment was so immense, like a lioness ready to devour at any moment, that the Inazuma Delegation officials in the Goth Grand Hotel dared not approach her.
Jean: "Where is your Regent?"
One of them cautiously replied: "He's... he's upstairs... Acting Grand Master Jean, may I ask..."
Jean: "You're dismissed. I'll find your Regent myself."
With that, Jean went straight upstairs, leaving everyone looking bewildered.
Just as everyone was still exchanging glances, they heard an angry roar from Acting Grand Master Jean upstairs: "Yuto! Get out here! How can you bully people like this..."
Those downstairs only managed to hear that one sentence before Acting Grand Master Jean's voice abruptly cut off.
On the third floor, in Miyashiro's suite, Acting Grand Master Jean's first words upon pushing open the door were to demand an explanation, but what met her eyes was the sight of Shenhe and Eula having a private conversation.
This caused Jean, who was in a fit of anger, to momentarily freeze, and she subconsciously asked: "Eula? What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be preparing for the Mondstadt Delegation right now?"
Hearing the question, Eula's blush became even more pronounced, and she shyly hid behind Shenhe, not daring to meet Jean's sharp eyes.
Ever since that night, when Miyashiro and Eula confessed their feelings under Jean's interrogation, Miyashiro had very naturally confessed his love to Eula, and Eula, after a few symbolic hesitations, agreed.
However, becoming a couple did not mean they could immediately take that next step. Back then, when Miyashiro and Shenhe first established their relationship in Chapter Sixty-Eight, it wasn't until Chapter One Hundred Thirty-Seven that they reached that stage. Moreover, above Eula, there was also the presence of Shenhe, the older sister.
Therefore, Eula would spend time with Shenhe whenever she had a moment, getting on good terms with the 'main wife' and subtly trying to learn more about what kind of person Miyashiro was.
What were his hobbies? What were his dietary restrictions? How were his interpersonal relationships? Eula even took out a small notebook to jot things down.
And Shenhe was truly open-minded; perhaps Eula was the first 'younger sister' she truly approved of after her own personal assessment.
Therefore, Shenhe poured out everything to Eula, even revealing some of Miyashiro's little bedroom quirks, which made the still-virgin Eula blush furiously, but her hand continued to write in her notebook.
However, today, as Eula was continuing to seek advice from Shenhe, Acting Grand Master Jean burst in furiously, directly interrupting their private conversation, making the scene extremely awkward.
Just as the situation fell into a stalemate, it was Shenhe who first broke the silence: "Ahem! Acting Grand Master Jean, is there something urgent?"
Jean: "Mm... yes, I have something to discuss with Regent. Where is he?"
Shenhe: "He just took Klee out to play; he might be back soon. Would you like to sit down for a bit first?"
Hearing Klee's name from Shenhe's mouth made Acting Grand Master Jean's previously suppressed anger show signs of reigniting.
That little rascal, if she wasn't supervised by her, she'd blow Inazuma sky-high. She absolutely couldn't be allowed to go; if something happened, Jean couldn't bear the responsibility.
Jean suppressed her anger and sat on the sofa beside them. Since that man wasn't there, she would just wait here.
As the saying goes, three women are a show. To ease the awkward atmosphere, Acting Grand Master Jean proactively asked Shenhe and Eula about topics that interested women. Once a topic was found, the atmosphere gradually became relaxed and lively.
An hour later, the three women, who had been chatting enthusiastically, simultaneously turned their heads towards Miyashiro's study.
Before seeing him, his voice was heard first; a lively and cheerful child's voice came from the study: "Wow! Big Brother Miyashiro's ability is so convenient, just 'whoosh' and he's back! Can you teach Klee? Klee wants to learn too, then Acting Grand Master Jean won't be able to catch me."
Miyashiro: "Hehe, Klee's mother is a famous great witch in Teyvat. My ability is simply insignificant compared to Klee's mother's long-distance teleportation. Little Klee, how about you wait until your mother comes back and let her teach you?"
Klee: "Yay, Klee must learn this amazing ability."
Miyashiro: "Little Klee, have you played enough today?"
Klee: "Mm-hmm, Klee used up all the Jumpy Dumpty in her backpack today and blew up so many Fish. As expected, Starfell Lake's Bass are the tastiest. Big Brother Miyashiro, are Inazuma's Fish also delicious?"
Miyashiro: "Of course! Inazuma is a true island nation; Fish is their primary source of meat. To avoid getting tired of Fish, Inazuma's chefs have developed hundreds of wonderful ways to eat Fish."
Klee: "Wow! That's great, Klee wants to try them all."
Miyashiro: "Hahaha, Klee can eat and play as much as she wants then. Alright, Little Klee, before Acting Grand Master Jean finds out, hurry home."
Klee: "Mm, Goodbye Big Brother Miyashiro."
After Klee waved goodbye to Miyashiro, she enthusiastically opened the study door. The next moment, the joy on Klee's face instantly vanished, replaced by immense fear.
Klee: "Wah! Uh... Acting... Acting Grand Master Jean, why are you here?"
Acting Grand Master Jean stood with her hands on her hips, her face as dark as if smeared with charcoal. "Klee—! You have a lot of nerve! Not only are you blowing up Fish everywhere, but you didn't even tell me about something as big as going to Inazuma?"
Klee was so frightened by the aggressive Acting Grand Master Jean that tears welled up in her eyes, glittering tears beginning to swirl in her big eyes. The next moment, Klee felt a pair of warm large hands rest on her head, continuously comforting her.
Klee looked up and saw that Miyashiro had unknowingly stepped in front of her, shielding her from Acting Grand Master Jean's intimidating aura.
Miyashiro knelt down, gently wiped away the tears from her eyes, and then kindly said: "Little Klee, don't be afraid. You go home first; Acting Grand Master Jean and I have something to discuss."
Hearing Miyashiro's words, Klee subconsciously looked in Acting Grand Master Jean's direction. Acting Grand Master Jean's expression was still very unpleasant, scaring her into standing still.
Seeing this, Miyashiro took Klee's small hand. The next moment, their figures vanished from the spot. Less than a minute later, the space in the study twisted again, and Miyashiro's figure appeared before Acting Grand Master Jean.
Miyashiro: "Alright, Acting Grand Master Jean, I think we can have a good talk now."
