“Mr. Xia! Miss Xia Ci! Miss Xia Zhen! Miss Shen He! Miss Zhu Zi!…”
Qi Liangliang counted a long string of names on her fingers.
Yae no Miko nodded, and asked casually, "That Mr. Xia is the one who gave you the ring, right?"
"That's right! Huh? How did you know, Lord Yata no Naka de?"
"Didn't you say your ring was a gift from a male friend? Of all the people you just mentioned, he's the only one who is a gentleman."
"Hehe..."
"However, since you put his name first, it means he holds the most importance in your heart. In other words, among all the friends you mentioned, Mr. Xia is your favorite..."
Yae no Miko's tone took on a slightly mocking tone.
"I like him? It's not what you think... I like Mr. Xia simply because he's an amazing cook!"
"Is your cooking delicious?"
"Yes! Although I've delivered packages to many places and eaten many different kinds of food, Mr. Xia's cooking is definitely the best I've ever had! Especially that 'God Jumps Over the Wall' dish..."
Qi Liangliang savored the wonderful taste and couldn't help but smack her lips.
A little glutton.
Yae no Miko smiled and asked, "Tell me about that Mr. Xia."
"Is Mr. Ba Chong interested in Mr. Xia?"
"Well, I'll help you check it out, so you don't get scammed by someone over a meal."
"No way! Mr. Xia is a very good person!"
"See, now you're even defending him."
"Mr. Yashiro!"
"Okay, where is he from?"
Yae no Miko begins checking household registrations.
Qi Liangliang was taken aback: "Where are you from? I don't know. Mr. Xia should be from Liyue, right? I haven't asked."
"So what does he do?"
"Mr. Xia owns a shop! He owns the best beverage shop in Liyue! It's called Summer's Little Shop! They sell rainbow juice and rainbow liquor!"
"Rainbow juice..."
Yae no Miko had some recollection of this thing; she learned about it from people who came to the shrine to draw fortune slips, and she had also heard people mention it at Yae-do.
I've heard that every cup of this drink tastes different, which is quite amazing.
But this is not important.
"So, Mr. Xia is the owner of a shop?"
"Yes! It's still the principal!"
"headmaster?"
"That's right! Liyue built a school floating in the sky last year. It's just finished, and children can study there for free. Mr. Xia is the principal of that school! That very wealthy Tianquan Star is the vice principal, and she often goes to Mr. Xia's shop for massages."
"massage?"
Yae no Miko feels like the art style is starting to go a little off.
"That's right! Mr. Xia also offers massage services, but only to friends! I heard from Miss Zhu and the others that Mr. Xia's aromatherapy massage is especially comfortable. I haven't tried it yet, but I want to try it next time!"
Qi Liangliang clenched her fists, looking eager to try.
Yae no Miko glanced at her and steered the conversation back on track.
"Where's his family?"
"Mr. Xia's family, huh? Miss Xia Ci is Mr. Xia's cousin, and Miss Xia Zhen is Mr. Xia's older cousin. That's all I know."
cousin?
What on earth is this strange identity?
Yae no Miko calmly extracted everything that Kira knew from her before signing for the package and giving her a positive review.
"Thank you so much for your support of Komahaya!"
"Don't worry."
"Is there anything else, Lord Ba Chong?"
"I also want to send a package to Liyue."
"Is this for Miss Xia Zhen?"
"Ah."
"but……"
Qi Liangliang's expression became somewhat troubled.
"It seems like Miss Xia Zhen and the others are going on a trip. I wonder if Miss Xia Zhen will still be home when I go to Liyue next time..."
"It's okay, you can just deliver it to me."
"Ok!"
"You can wander around the shrine for a while, I'll go write a letter."
Qi Liangliang went to draw a fortune stick.
Only Yae no Miko remained under the Divine Cherry Tree.
She then picked up the last item in the package.
That little machine.
Zhen mentioned how to use it in the letter.
Yae no Miko took it, found the button on it, and pressed it gently.
A moment later, Zhen's voice came out clearly from inside.
"Little fox..."
The affectionate voice seemed to transcend time and space, striking her heart instantly.
for a long time.
Yae no Miko gripped the machine in her hand and muttered to herself.
"I don't know why you didn't come back to Inazuma immediately, but it's good that you're still alive..."
She turned around, glanced in the direction of the castle tower, and chuckled softly.
"That stubborn girl, Kage, finally someone will discipline her... I don't know why Shin made me invite Kage to the shrine... I need to figure out a way to trick her into coming..."

Today is Friday again.
In the afternoon, as usual, Miss Gan Yu came to the shop, bringing fruit.
Although the dream a few days ago was a bit embarrassing, Shen He did not show any unusual behavior.
Gan Yu did not show any abnormality when facing Shen He.
Xia Zhi observed Miss Gan Yu for a moment.
Because of drinking the papaya soup, Ms. Gan Yu's figure changed after a week.
The most obvious thing is the buttons on her shirt; they used to fit properly, but now they're too tight.
It's obviously too small.
In the evening, Xia Zhi gave Miss Gan Yu her usual massage.
The two of them became so close.
Xia Zhi noticed that Miss Gan Yu's scent had changed today.
She is a vegetarian, and her scent is always very fresh, like the green grass leaves covered with morning dew in the mountains.
But at this moment, the fragrance on her body had a different scent.
very special.
If I had to describe it, the flavor is somewhat like a light coconut milk aroma.
It's really very faint.
Most people definitely wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
Only someone with master-level culinary skills like Xia Zhi, possessing an exceptional sense of smell, could detect this subtle difference amidst her naturally delicate body fragrance.
Xia Zhi kept this matter to himself.
Perhaps this is the peculiarity of the Qilin bloodline...
