My mobile game wife came knocking.

"How could she possibly know if we don't tell her?"

Given how things have developed, there's not much point in Keqing denying it now; she has no choice but to accept it.

"If that zither were to actually meet Ye Ming, who knows what might happen to it."

Of course, Keqing was just being stubborn.

Liyue and Mondstadt are both among the seven major powers of Teyvat, and they both compete with and cooperate with each other.

As one of the seven stars of Liyue, Keqing has some knowledge of some famous figures in Mondstadt.

Qin was undoubtedly one of those famous figures, and a very important one at that.

As the heir to the Gunnhildr family, Jean was raised from childhood to be an upright and noble knight. She inherited all the legendary knightly virtues: diligence, self-discipline, justice, and courage. At a young age, she gained great prestige among the people of Mondstadt and became the acting Grand Master of the Knights of Mondstadt, the shield of Mondstadt protecting freedom and peace.

Such an excellent knight princess, even if she meets someone she likes, might express her feelings or take the initiative to pursue him, but she would never resort to methods that violate the spirit of chivalry, such as drugging.

Keqing, who had interacted with Qin several times before, was certain of this.

Upon hearing this, Hu Tao pursed her lips and said, "When I came here this morning, I actually ran into Qin."

The bedroom next door.

"Enterprise Sister, Lafite, I feel that the relationship between Gan Yu Sister, Ke Qing Sister, and Hu Tao Sister is so complicated. They are a bit like companions, a bit like friends, a bit like family, and a bit like enemies and rivals. It's such a strange relationship."

Lafie nestled in Enterprise's arms, her eyes half-open and half-closed, looking as if she were about to fall asleep. However, the destroyer's superior detection capabilities allowed her to hear Keqing and Kurumi's conversation next door clearly.

She didn't quite understand the relationship between Gan Yukeqing and Hu Tao.

Back when we were in the port, many ship girls would have their own little schemes to get closer to the commander. For example, there was Taihou who would steal the key to the commander's office and plan to do some weird things with him when no one was in the office; there was Nimi and Javelin who would often bring the commander some of their homemade cookies; and there was Formidable who would often sneak into the commander's office to steal desserts...

Most of the time, everyone is focused on their own plans. Occasionally, they might encounter each other and feel envious or a little jealous. They might also bicker occasionally. It's likely that only a handful of ship girls, such as Roon and Prinz Eugen, would actually do something like drugging someone.

There seem to be very few creatures in the entire port area as mischievous as Keqing Kurumi.

So Lafite didn't quite understand.

"Isn't this better, Lafite?"

Businesses, however, can fully understand.

"Back then, when I was on the other side of the ocean, I was with Gan Yu. At that time, Gan Yu was gentle and mature, polite in her dealings with people, and handled her work in an orderly manner. No matter how good or bad the news was, she could deal with it calmly. She was elegant, mature, gentle, kind, calm, and self-disciplined."

"At that time, Gan Yu was as perfect as a goddess in a fantasy story. But when she walked into a crowd, no matter how gentle and elegant she was, she would always seem out of place with the people around her, as if she were a non-human being detached from the crowd, lonely and isolated."

"Gan Yu now can get angry, happy, cry, laugh, feel secretly pleased, and feel frustrated. She is becoming more and more like an ordinary girl. Isn't it a good transformation from an inhuman being who couldn't fit in with the crowd to an ordinary girl who can cry and laugh?"

The company is genuinely happy about the changes Gan Yu has made.

"Is Enterprise saying that Gan Yu became like this because of the Commander?"

Lafite understood what the company meant.

"Is that true for Keqing and Kurumi as well? It seems that the Commander is a very important person to them as well."

As he said this, Raffi suddenly felt a little sad.

"Lafite, I miss Belfast a little."

“Laffey remembers that Little Belfast said that the Commander is a very, very important person in her heart, so important that even if the Commander did something strange to her and was imprisoned, she would personally make delicious prison food and feed it to the Commander.”

"Hmm? Why would Little Belfast have such a thought?"

The company was puzzled. Little Belfast had been learning housekeeping and etiquette from Belfast, Newcastle, and Hood since she was a child. Although she was still young, she was already an excellent royal lady and part-time maid. It was unlikely that she would have such strange ideas.

“Little Belfast said that back in the port, the Commander often made her wear a maid outfit and poke her with his finger.”

"..."

The usually mild-mannered company fell silent for a moment upon hearing Lafite's words.

"Lafite, don't say these things to anyone else again, understand?"

The company's tone was surprisingly somewhat helpless.

"Yes, Raffi understands. Raffi only told Enterprise that Enterprise is special."

Raffi nodded obediently. Although he always seemed listless and absent-minded, Raffi was still very sensible.

"Sister Enterprise, do you think Lafite will ever be able to reunite with Belfast again?"

Raffi's tone was surprisingly dejected when he said this.

Actually, it's not just Little Belfast, is it?

Javelin, Lingbo, Nimi, and Unicorn were all Laffey's good friends and partners in the port area. Thanks to these friends, Laffey, who was always sleepy, also experienced many interesting things.

There's also the incredibly awkward Yukikaze, the super enthusiastic Cheshire, the super homebody Nagashima, Saratoga and Nagato who look like destroyers even though they're capital ships, the gentle and considerate Belfast, and the formidable sister who secretly loves to eat snacks but is afraid of gaining weight...

The port area holds so many memories.

How could one not miss it?

Laffey didn't want to put pressure on the Commander, so she only showed her disappointment and sadness when she was with her favorite Enterprise sister.

"That day will come."

The company gently stroked Lafite's long silver hair and gave an affirmative answer.

"We ship girls are born with an unbreakable bond with our commander. As long as we are alive, even if we are at the ends of the earth or in different worlds, we will be reunited sooner or later, bound by fate and with our commander as the link."

As she said this, Enterprise smiled gently and pinched Laffey's small nose: "Laffey, instead of this, I think you should think about what clothes you'd wear to look prettier when you go out with the Commander."

"Going out with the Commander?"

Lafite looked up at the company, puzzled.

With so many girls around him, how could the commander possibly take them out alone?

Lafite couldn't understand it.

However, because it was her favorite older sister from the company who said it, Raffi chose to believe her.

"Enterprise, where will the Commander take us?"

"They'll probably take us back to our hometown to see the commander's parents."

Enterprise hugged Laffey with a smile and said softly, "So, besides the beautiful clothes, Laffey also needs to choose a gift to give to the Commander's parents."

Chapter 163 The Liyue People's Instruction on Drug Use, Hu De Sighs 4K

Drugging?

What kind of drug was used?

What medicine should be given?

Although Gan Yu tried her best to cover the phone while speaking, Ye Ming still heard Ke Qing and Hu Tao's conversation on the other end of the phone because they were too close.

To be honest, Ye Ming was a little confused.

Judging from the conversation between the three women, Gan Yu, Ke Qing, and Hu Tao, it seems that Hu Tao had drugged Ke Qing, who was the victim. When Ke Qing, who claimed to be the victim, confronted Hu Tao, Hu Tao tried to shift the blame to Gan Yu and falsely accused Gan Yu of drugging her.

Enraged, Ke Qing engaged in a fierce battle with Hu Tao, but the outcome was far from ideal; she was subdued by Hu Tao…

Having subdued Ke Qing, Hu Tao, holding Ke Qing as a bargaining chip, called Gan Yu, attempting to use Ke Qing to threaten Gan Yu into submission. To spare Ke Qing from further torment, the gentle and kind Gan Yu resolutely admitted to being the one who drugged her, taking the blame for herself.

It's obvious that Keqing, who was once in charge of land planning in Liyue, is not stupid, or perhaps Keqing trusts Ganyu very much. In any case, Keqing did not doubt Ganyu because of Ganyu's verbal confession, and still believed that Ganyu was the one who drugged her.

The above is the plot that Ye Ming deduced based on the tone and content of Gan Yu and the others' conversation.

Based on Ye Ming's years of experience reading online novels, this speculation is almost certainly true, and he has basically grasped the truth of the matter. In particular, the gentle yet helpless expression on Gan Yu's face when she admitted that she was the one who drugged her further corroborated Ye Ming's guess.

This somewhat overturned Ye Ming's impression of Keqing Walnut.

First, there's Ke Qing. In Ye Ming's memory, although Ke Qing was very proactive towards him and sometimes even played office games, she was actually a very serious person.

When they first met, Ke Qing said she didn't like working and preferred to be a couch potato. After Ye Ming and Ke Qing confirmed their relationship, he found that although Ke Qing tried her best to avoid working in front of him, she would still unconsciously immerse herself in the documents handed over by her secretary, becoming very focused and meticulous in handling the work.

Ye Ming believed that if Ke Qing discovered that Hu Tao had a problem, she would definitely prepare in advance, strategize, and strike decisively at the crucial moment to take down Hu Tao in one fell swoop, without giving Hu Tao a chance to fight back.

But reality is clearly a little different.

Although Hu Tao seems quirky and acts and speaks somewhat capriciously, she is actually very sensible.

Just like the kidnapping incident a few days ago, although she did something shocking like kidnapping someone by knocking them unconscious as soon as they met, Hu Tao was still very measured in her actions. After Ye Ming woke up, he did not feel any pain or discomfort, nor was he overly worried or afraid - because Hu Tao quickly revealed her identity.

Moreover, seeing how adorable Hu Tao was trying so hard to please him, Ye Ming couldn't hold back his anger.

This shows that Hu Tao is quite sensible.

Ye Ming found it hard to believe that Hu Tao would do something as despicable as drugging someone, especially since the target was his own companion.

As for Gan Yu...

Yes, Ye Ming felt that Gan Yu in this matter was gentle, kind, strong, and mature. In order not to let Ke Qing suffer, she was willing to take the blame herself. She could really be described as a perfect good woman.

This timely rain perfectly matched Ye Ming's understanding.

Even so, this incident still changed Ye Ming's impression of the three girls.

Originally, Ye Ming thought that Gan Yu, Ke Qing, and Hu Tao had been working together in Liyue since Teyvat, and then came to this world together and relied on each other for so long. They created Liyue International together and worked together to make it into the huge company it is today. With this foundation, the three of them should be close sisters with a deep bond. They are not blood sisters, but their bond is stronger than that of blood sisters.

We're all good friends. Even if there's a conflict, we can sit down and talk it out openly. Is there any need to resort to drugging?

Perhaps this is their usual way of communicating and joking?

Ye Ming didn't quite understand.

He wasn't stupid, and of course he guessed that the conflict between the group was because of him. But if that were the case, with Keqing, Hutao, and Ganyu's strength, any one of the three could force him, and using drugs would be even easier.

But in the end, there were none.

That time with Keqing was a drunken escapade.

When he was kidnapped by Hu Tao, Hu Tao could have easily drugged or forced him, but she didn't.

As for today's encounter with Gan Yu, cough cough, Ye Ming admits that it was purely because he saw Gan Yu's sensitive appearance after her horns were caught that he had bad intentions, which led to the strange incident of eating for more than three hours.

Therefore, whether rationally or emotionally, Ye Ming didn't quite believe that Hu Tao would do something like drugging someone.

Therefore, after seeing the other end of the phone hang up, Ye Ming took the initiative to say, "Gan Yu, are you alright? Let's go back and check on things together."

"Eh?"

Gan Yu was startled when she heard that Ye Ming had also gone home with her to see Ke Qing Hu Tao.
