My obsession with role-playing seems to have distorted the world's aesthetic.

Keqing was a little stunned as she looked at Ningguang staring straight at her, trying to figure out how to get information out of her. What was wrong with Ningguang?

"Ah Qing, sleep with me."

Looking at Ke Qing, Ning Guang, who felt uncomfortable calling herself Qing'er, changed to a normal name and then spoke in a tone as if she were talking about a trivial matter.

She knew perfectly well that the girl in front of her was just a character in her dream, not the real Yuheng.

She is not Yuheng at all. In her present state, the Qing'er of the past and the A Qing of the present are nothing more than a substitute.

Yes, reality and dreams should be carefully separated. Otherwise, if the dream enters the mind and gives Keqing (the author of the novel) any instructions, that would be a real provocation against the Seven Stars.

Chapter 608: Ke Qing: Ning, Ning Guang, I quit! Don't come any closer to me!

Good guy!

At this moment, Zhongli on the second floor subconsciously leaned back in his chair, while Wendy looked up at the upstairs with a look of schadenfreude.

Both the Wind and Rock Gods were beings beyond human comprehension, and they heard Ningguang's words clearly.

Diluc was completely bewildered by the sudden change in attitude of the two gods. What happened?

???

Meanwhile, on the third floor of the teahouse, Ningguang and Keqing, who were not far away, subconsciously took a step back, their eyes filled with shock. Ningguang, you actually...

No, this can't go on. Intelligence isn't important anymore; my chastity is more important.

"Ah, Ning, Ningguang, wait, stop, I, I quit."

Looking at Ningguang approaching her, Keqing's tone was somewhat flustered.

"Oh, you don't want to? That's not up to you~"

Seeing Keqing's disheveled state, Ningguang's lips curled into a mocking expression.

Although it was a dream, it was quite amusing to see Keqing so disheveled and no longer possess her former elegance.

After treating reality as a dream, Ningguang seems to have awakened some strange hobby.

"Don't come near me!"

Seeing Ningguang approaching her, Keqing quickly retreated.

Ningguang rushed forward, grabbed Qixing, and pinned her against the wooden wall.

The aroma of tea filled the private room, but in Ningguang's eyes, it couldn't compare to the faint fragrance of the beautiful woman in front of him.

Ningguang leaned in close to Keqing, her right hand encircling the woman's slender waist as she pulled her into her arms.

Feeling the softness pressed against her, Ningguang mobilized the power of the Divine Eye to condense the jade bed.

Since it's a dream, let yourself do whatever you want!

Keqing's expression is really interesting.

At this moment, on the second floor of the teahouse, Zhongli's expression was quite complicated.

Ah, this...

Ningguang, it's only been a few hours, how did you become like this?

Keqing already said she didn't want to, how can you force her?

"Your personality probably won't allow her to continue doing this."

Wendy stretched and said this, while Zhongli nodded, got up, and prepared to leave: "Let me end all of this."

Who am I? Where do I come from? Where am I going?

Seeing his two band members seemingly cryptically trying to explain something, Diluc stood up and decided to end the cryptic exchange.

"Let's be frank, what exactly are you talking about?"

Looking at Zhongli and Wendy in front of him, Diluc asked this question.

"Upstairs, someone is trying to force another girl to sleep with her."

Wendy pointed upstairs with her right index finger, and Diluc immediately couldn't sit still upon hearing this: "Is that so? Beat him up... ah."

At the crucial moment, Diluc's sense of justice kicked in, and his learned manners made him forcibly swallow the curse he was about to utter. Diluc's inner thoughts were the same as his words.

"Well... if we're going to attack, we'll need to prepare an escape route."

Wendy, who had deduced the identities of the two people upstairs from the sounds coming from above, thought for a moment and said, "The one upstairs who wanted to force herself on Yuheng Keqing to sleep with is Tianquan Ningguang."

After spending some time in the storytelling circle in Liyue, I learned quite a bit about Ningguang. Everyone knows that the saying "Heaven's power is supreme" is openly allowed to be spread, so Ningguang must have a lot of power.

Flying is faster than running, right? He could probably escape Liyue's pursuit alone, but if he takes Diluc along...

After a moment of silence, Zhongli replied, "At first glance, the person upstairs's identity doesn't seem like much, but rationally speaking, getting involved with her would bring a lot of trouble to Captain Diluc."

Upon hearing this, Diluc confidently prepared to unleash his Night Elf Heroes hidden identity set:

"I am Diluc, the future leader of Teyvat's number one idol group! I can't just ignore Liyue tomorrow. How can I, as the band leader, stand idly by when something like this happens!"

Upon hearing this, Wendy's eyes lit up: "Great! Captain Diluc is right, but Captain Diluc's strength is still a bit weak."

"We could easily escape even if we were surrounded by the Thousand Rock Army, Commander Diluc..."

Zhongli thought for a moment and said, "I'll call a carriage for the commander later. You can leave the hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress thing to us."

From a purely rational perspective, Diluc was undoubtedly one of the greatest figures in history at this time, with two earthly rulers referring to him as their leader—an unprecedented experience.

Although, this group leader is only involved in music.

"Well, this kind of hero-saves-the-damsel situation is best left to me, the best bard, to handle."

"Captain, just wait patiently~"

At this moment, Zhong Li had already left, and Wendy seemed to be preparing to follow him.

Hearing his bandmates' words, Wendy and Diluc were somewhat moved as they faced departure: "Wendy, please sit down!"

Zhongli seems to be a big shot, and his words only got him into trouble.

But Wendy is just an ordinary bard; getting involved with that important figure would definitely be more troublesome than getting involved with him himself.

As the owner of Dawn Winery, I am not afraid of those important figures at all. Wendy, you can live a peaceful life in Mondstadt. I, Diluc, will take care of everything!

Venti, however, didn't seem to care much about Diluc's attempt to persuade him to stay: "Master, please sit down. As a Mondstadt citizen, it's not appropriate for you to get involved in this matter."

Let me and Zhongli, who are locals from Liyue, handle this~

While he said he was going to handle it, Wendy was really just there to join in the fun. Zhongli would handle this kind of thing; it wasn't appropriate for him to do it.

Upon hearing this, Diluc stood up without hesitation: "So what if they're Mondstadt people? You can handle Venti, who's neither from Liyue nor Mondstadt, so why can't I, Diluc?"

"Hehe?"

Venti was slightly taken aback upon hearing Diluc's words. Wait, it's certain that I'm neither from Liyue nor Mondstadt, what the heck?

I've been... expelled from Mondstadt?

Just then, Xia Qing, who had just located this place using Keqing's mental marker, heard these words: Barbatos, the Wind God, had been expelled from Mondstadt. As expected of the Crown of the North, the Land of Freedom.

But... is there some kind of misunderstanding between them?

Xia Qing was curious and prepared to listen more, while Zhong Li had already arrived on the third floor while Wendy was talking to Diluc.

Looking at the private room in front of him, Zhong Li pondered for a moment and felt that he was not suitable to appear in public in his current state, since there were two women inside who might be disheveled.

Zhongli has many incarnations, including naturally female ones.

With a crimson mark in her eyes and an aura of celestial power descending upon the dust, Zhongli transformed into a female avatar to stop Ningguang's actions.

Chapter 609: Lily is actually beside me!

What are you doing?

Looking at the two people on the jade bed directly opposite the door, Zhongli said in a complicated tone.

"Ugh, Ningguang, what are you doing? Let go of me!"

Keqing, who was being held tightly by Ningguang, felt like she couldn't breathe, while Ningguang herself was already panicking.

Wait a minute, dreams can't mimic things you don't know, right? So, what about this feeling I've never experienced before...?

Ningguang felt like she was doomed. Wait, if everything before was just Keqing acting, then she had actually done the same thing as forcibly embracing the Seven Stars.

Thankfully, I didn't do anything like "Keqing, your first kiss was with Ningguang," but things are already bad enough as they are.

Dangerous, extremely dangerous.

Ningguang felt cold sweat seeping down her back. What had she done?

No, we can't let this situation continue.

I'm drunk, yes, I'm drunk.

Wine, no, tea, doesn't intoxicate, but intoxicates the soul.

After a moment's thought, Ningguang, remembering Keqing's usual personality, decided to strike first. Feeling the warmth in her arms and using Keqing as a pillow, Ningguang feigned a sleepy tone and said:

"What are we doing? We are simply expressing our love."

Hearing Keqing's words, Zhongli felt a bit conflicted. When did Ningguang become this kind of person?

"I don't think this is love."

Seeing Ke Qing trying to break free, Zhong Li covered his eyes with his right hand and shook his head.

Ningguang replied in a serious tone, "You don't understand what love is at all. Ke Qing and I are a match made in heaven, how could we tolerate a stranger like you... Wait, who are you, and what gives you the right to barge into my private room?"

Looking at the woman in front of her with golden eyes and an air of an intellectual older sister, Ningguang suddenly realized that what did her relationship with Keqing have to do with outsiders?

At this moment, Keqing, who was in Ningguang's arms, turned pale upon hearing these words. She realized that she had learned something terrible.

Ningguang said she and I were a match made in heaven? She...likes me?

A blush appeared on Ke Qing's face, which was buried deep in Ning Guang's chest. She hadn't expected Ning Guang to have such feelings for her. She had heard that children often liked to bully the people they liked to express their presence.

Could it be... that Ningguang's previous disagreements with him were a deliberate attempt to attract his attention?

But I am a girl too, and relationships between girls go against societal norms...
