I'm a male god in Liyue

"?"

"Come with me, I'll take care of you from now on."

"!"

Chapter 71 Let me take care of you.

In a private room by the sea at the Tinghai Teahouse, three people sat together.

There were three cups of hot tea on the table, but no one drank them.

Shen He quietly looked at Xia Zhi, who lowered his head slightly. Yan Fei looked at the two of them thoughtfully.

The atmosphere in the room seemed a little strange.

Xia Zhi hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Miss Shen He."

"Ah."

"You said I was your master's savior?"

"Yes."

"I wonder who your master is?"

"Master Liuyunjifeng."

Upon hearing this, Yan Fei looked slightly surprised: "I didn't expect that Miss Shen He was actually that immortal's disciple."

"Miss Yanfei knows?"

"Of course I know. Mr. Xia may not be familiar with her since he is from out of town, but the people of Liyue are very familiar with the Cloud-Borrowing Wind Immortal. Back then, she was one of the Three-Eyed Five Manifestations Immortals who followed the Emperor in his conquests. Since the founding of Liyue, she has also shown her divine traces many times. Like the Water-Covering Mountain Immortal, she often walks among humans in the form of a crane."

"Crane shape?"

"correct."

"I seem to understand..."

Xia Zhi hadn't expected that the injured crane she had saved earlier had such a noble status; she had originally thought it was just an ordinary spirit beast.

The night before last, when he was taking a walk with Zhu Zi at the harbor, he was thinking that she had left so quietly, and he didn't know if he would ever have the chance to see her again. Unexpectedly, he ran into her apprentice today.

It seems that the connection between them hasn't been severed yet.

"Miss Shen He, how is your master...?"

"Master is fine; he is currently in seclusion."

"That's good."

"So, what brings you down the mountain this time?"

“My master said that you are unfamiliar with Liyue and are blind, so he must be having a hard time. That’s why he sent me to take care of you.”

"I see."

No wonder Shen He said those things to him when they met.

The little female crane is quite grateful.

Shen He looked at Xia Zhi and said earnestly, "Come with me, and I'll take care of you from now on."

Xia Zhi smiled and asked, "I wonder how Miss Shen He plans to take care of me?"

Shen He thought for a moment and said, "Whatever you want, I'll find it for you."

That's such a straightforward way of taking care of someone.

Xia Zhi shook his head and said with a smile, "I don't want anything. I'm doing very well now and don't need Miss Shen He to take care of me. Thank you for your master's concern."

Shen He paused for a moment, then asked, "No need?"

"Well, no need."

Shen He fell silent, seemingly unsure of what to do.

"Miss Shen He, is there anything else you need to do after coming down the mountain this time?"

"I want to deliver something to someone on behalf of my master."

"do you need my help?"

"No need, I've already sent the things over."

"So, Miss Shenhe is going back to the mountain after this?"

"I...I'm not going back..."

"Oh?"

"I am not actually an immortal. I was just taken in by my master when I was a child. My master is going into seclusion to cultivate for a long time. He hopes that I can take this opportunity to go down the mountain and return to human society."

"I see. So, Miss Shenhe is planning to stay in Liyue for an extended period?"

"Ah."

Have you found a place to stay?

"not yet."

Do you have enough money on you?

“I brought 150,000 Mora.”

"150,000 Mora should be enough for short-term rent. Ms. Shenhe, do you have any plans for your future life?"

"Intend……"

"It's about what kind of job you're going to do."

"I do not know either……"

"If you want to integrate into human society as soon as possible, finding a job is the best way. Ms. Shenhe, do you have any skills?"

"I know some magical arts and can also make some magical talismans..."

"These skills are all too impressive; it might be difficult to find a job with them. Miss Shenhe, do you know any more ordinary tasks?"

"I'm a very good shot."

"Being an adventurer is possible, but the job is unstable, requiring you to travel around all day, which won't help Ms. Shenhe integrate into human society much."

"I am very strong."

“There are many porter jobs at the dock, but these jobs are too noisy and tiring, and most of the workers are men, so they are not very suitable for Ms. Shen He to deal with.”

"Then I... won't..."

Shen He's tone inevitably revealed a hint of frustration.

She spent her days practicing cultivation on the mountain with her master, and her daily diet consisted of medicinal herbs that grew in the mountains, such as Qingxin Liuli Dai. She didn't need to cook and didn't know how. The chores she did most often were washing her master's clothes.

Besides what she said, she really couldn't do anything else.

Perhaps, I really am not suited to return to this mortal realm...

Shen He thought to himself with a touch of sadness.

"Since Miss Shen He doesn't have any definite plans yet, why don't you try my little shop first?"

"Your... little shop?"

“Yes, Miss Shenhe may not know this, but I have actually opened a small shop selling specialty drinks in Liyue. Although there is already a waitress in the shop, sometimes there are too many customers and she can’t handle it all by herself. I was just considering whether to hire another waitress, but it would be best if Miss Shenhe could come and help out at the shop.”

"I've never worked as a waiter..."

"It's just conveying the guests' requests and helping to bring the drinks over; it's a very simple job."

"Well."

Shen He nodded and agreed.

In her view, this was also a way of taking care of him.

She finally lived up to her master's expectations.

"There are a few empty rooms upstairs in the shop. They are all very clean and can be tidied up a bit. If Ms. Shen He doesn't mind, you can move in with us. This will save you some rent and make it more convenient for you to go to work on weekdays."

"it is good."

Shen He nodded again; she didn't have high requirements for her living environment.

In her view, being able to live with him meant that she could at least take care of him in daily life.

For example, she can help him with things like washing clothes. Since he is blind, it is very inconvenient for him to do many things.

"As for the work arrangement and compensation, Ms. Shen He and the other waiter have the same standard: five days on, two days off, nine to six, with a monthly salary of ten thousand. How about that?"

"it is good."

"Let's leave it at that for now."

Xia Zhi nodded, glanced at Shen He's progress bar which had turned into a golden bar of "Progress: 3%", picked up the now-cold tea on the table and took a sip.
