I'm a male god in Liyue

"I'm going to take a few days off."

"The Lantern Festival is in three days, and I'm already looking forward to it."

"Hmm? Excited? Is there anything different about this year's Lantern Festival?"

"Looking at the festival itself, it's not much different from previous years, except that the immortal being commemorated is special, it's Shen He. But what I'm really looking forward to is the dinner invitation that Mr. Xia sent earlier."

"..."

"Don't look at me like that. It's not just me who's looking forward to it; everyone is looking forward to it, including the immortals."

"..."

"You weren't there on the last day of last year, so you don't know. Mr. Xia invited everyone over for dinner and made a dish called 'God Jumps Over the Wall,' tsk..."

"[Divine Jump]?"

"Mr. Xia said it was an improved version of 'Immortal Jumps Over the Wall,' but to my taste, the two are worlds apart, tsk..."

"Lady Ningguang, please mind your posture and stop swallowing so much."

"You have no idea how delicious it is! And it's incredibly nutritious. Look at my skin, it's still so smooth even after working overtime for almost half a month. Mr. Xia said he used a lot of rare ingredients, so although everyone loves it, he can't make it all the time, only occasionally, tsk..."

"...If that's the case, how can you be sure that Mr. Xia will be making this dish, 'God Jumps Over the Wall,' during the Lantern Festival?"

"It's because of you, my special intelligence officer, of course."

"I?"

Ye Lan was somewhat taken aback upon hearing this.

"During our last meal, Mr. Xia specifically mentioned you, and his tone sounded very regretful."

Ningguang gave a half-smile.

"Now that you're back, given Mr. Xia's personality, he'll definitely perform the 'divine leap over the wall' for you again."

"uncertain."

"Let's make a bet. If you lose, you have to share half of what you eat with me."

"...I don't gamble."

"One spoonful!"

"No gambling!"

"Oh, woman."

"..."

Ningguang tilted her head back slightly, rested it against the pool, and closed her eyes.

The atmosphere was quiet for a while.

Ningguang suddenly spoke softly: "Half a year ago, the Emperor suddenly left, and at that time, Liyue was in complete chaos."

Ye Lan recalled for a moment, then shook her head and said, "It's all in the past."

"Yes, we've all gotten through it safely."

Ningguang nodded slightly and turned to look at the person next to her.

"Ye Lan, do you know?"

"what?"

"I had my marriage fortune told, and it said I'll be able to find a partner next year."

"!?"

Ye Lan's expression immediately turned strange, and she turned to look at her.

"You're getting married?"

"Anyway, the divination says it will bring both wealth and beauty."

"Both wealth and beauty...didn't you say before that you weren't interested in those suitors?"

“I have absolutely no interest in those people.”

"Then where are you going..."

Ye Lan seemed to have thought of something, and there was a look of disbelief in her eyes.

"Wait...you wouldn't be..."

Ningguang smiled without saying a word.

Ye Lan was silent for a moment, then asked, "Who divined your fate?"

"Mr. Xia."

"?"

"And there is also the True Lord of Shaving the Moon and Building the Sun."

"Is it the same hexagram?"

"Exactly the same."

"Is it……"

"By the way, what about the location of Tian Shu that I told you about last time? What have you thought about it?"

"Let's talk about it later."

Ye Lan shook her head and closed her eyes.

She seemed to have suddenly lost interest in the conversation.

the next morning.

Ye Lan got up from Qunyu Pavilion and stood in the square, where she could clearly see the construction site below.

Because of last night, my eyesight has become sharper again.

Ye Lan took out her bow, tried it out, and felt that the bowstring had become too light.

Looks like I'll have to get a new bow to get used to.

Without waiting for Ningguang, Yelan left Qunyu Pavilion alone and went to the construction site's canteen.

It was still early, and the cafeteria had not officially opened yet, but Mr. Xia was already inside helping with the cooking, along with Xiangling and Guoba.

Ye Lan went over to say hello.

"Mr. Xia, Xiangling, good morning."

"Miss Yelan, good morning. Are you feeling better?"

"Yes, thank you for your hard work, Mr. Xia."

"It's nothing. Have you had breakfast?"

"not yet."

"Then I'll make you some noodles?"

"Okay."

"Miss Yelan, please have a seat."

Ye Lan nodded and sat down at a table.

Before long, Xiangling came out of the kitchen with a steaming bowl of noodles.

"Please use!"

"Thank you."

She added a lot of chili peppers to the noodles according to her taste.

Ye Lan took a bite.

I still think homemade noodles taste the best.

Halfway through her meal, she saw two True Lords walk in together from the doorway.

Afterwards, Xiangling also brought them two bowls of noodles.

She noticed that they didn't add much chili to their noodles.

Ye Lan lowered her head and continued to eat quietly from her bowl, only slightly faster.

After finishing her noodles, Ye Lan took the bowls and chopsticks to the kitchen, then walked to the table where they had eaten and gave a faint smile.

"Greetings, Your Excellencies."

"Good morning, Miss Yelan."

The two True Lords knew Ye Lan and had even dined together at a small shop in the summer.

"Can I sit down?"

"Of course, Miss Yelan, is there something you need from us?"

"Well, there's no rush. You two True Lords, please have breakfast first."
