My mobile game wife came knocking.

Even now, the company can still smell that faint yet unforgettable scent of the Commander on Keqing.

Does she know the commander? What is her relationship with the commander? Why does she smell like the commander?

Enterprise was in turmoil. She had an urge to grab Keqing and force her to reveal the Commander's whereabouts, but reason told her that such an action would be unwise and could put the Commander in danger.

Ship girls are spirits awakened by their commanders. Although they possess greater power than ordinary warships when their ship equipment is deployed, they can transform into ordinary girls without any disguise when their equipment is retracted, if they so choose. This is an innate ability, an instinct of every ship girl.

Therefore, Enterprise is certain that Gan Yu and Ke Qing do not know her identity as a ship girl, but on the other hand, Enterprise knows that Gan Yu and Ke Qing are no ordinary people.

No one can deceive a ship girl who possesses an incredibly keen intuition for perceiving human emotions.

A mysterious girl with extraordinary powers, disguised as an ordinary person, has the commander's scent on her. This alarming situation must be handled with care to avoid endangering the commander.

Although he longed to fly to his beloved's side immediately, as a seasoned warrior with countless battles and a glorious record, the company maintained sufficient composure.

She didn't think Gan Yu and Ke Qing were evil people, but she still had to be careful when it came to matters involving the commander.

After a moment's thought, the company temporarily abandoned the idea of ​​seeking help from Keqing and using her power to find the commander.

She decided to approach Keqing and secretly follow her when Keqing lowered her guard, hoping to find information about the commander using this method.

Enterprise knew that this was not a glorious act, and could even be described as somewhat despicable, but for the Commander, Enterprise was willing to do anything, even if it meant turning the God of War, who symbolized the glory of the White Eagle, into a demon god who would start a war, or even if it meant falling into the form of a Siren in the deep sea. As long as it was the Commander's order, she would do it without hesitation.

As long as the commander is safe.

That's how businesses think.

She sat in the back seat, watching Ke Qing in the driver's seat, a girl chatting casually with Gan Yu while driving. Her body was relaxed, her expression natural, as if nothing was wrong.

If we follow her, can we find the commander?

Businesses are uncertain.

But this is the best solution the company can think of right now.

The company looked down and glanced to its left.

On the ring finger of her left hand, she wore an exquisite diamond ring.

This is her wedding ring, placed on her finger by her lover, her husband, and her commander.

She has always cherished her wedding ring, but how far away is the person who gave her the ring?

Commander, please wait a moment. Enterprise will find you and return to your side.

Chapter Seventy-One: Sincere Sisterhood

Originally, Ke Qing was prepared to be bombarded with questions about Ye Ming by Gan Yu and Hu Tao as soon as they met. However, due to the presence of the "outsider" from the company, Gan Yu did not mention Ye Ming at all along the way. This gave Ke Qing a great sense of relief and more time to think, prepare, and adjust her emotions.

Along the way, Ke Qing chatted casually with Gan Yu about the company's situation while driving, and occasionally struck up a conversation with Hu Tao in the back seat. After about forty minutes, the group returned to the villa that Ke Qing had bought in advance. They used their mobile phones to remotely open the gate, and Ke Qing drove the car slowly into the courtyard.

After parking the car in the garage, Ke Qing led a few people into the living room on the first floor of the villa.

"I bought the house recently. Because the housing prices in H City have started to rise again recently, I paid a slight premium when I bought it. It cost 60 million yuan. However, the environment around here is still very good. It is also close to supermarkets and shopping malls, making life very convenient."

Keqing was very enthusiastic when she saw her companions whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

"When I bought it, I knew you would come sooner or later, so as soon as I got it, I immediately had someone renovate it. The furniture and appliances were also replaced a couple of days ago, so we can move in now."

Seeing Ke Qing rambling on about unimportant things, Gan Yu, who had never met Ke Qing before, was fine, but knowing Ke Qing's personality, she looked at Ke Qing with some doubt.

The Keqing of the past wasn't this talkative.

"Alright, Keqing, after a night on the plane, I think Enterprise and Hu Tao must be tired. Let's take them to their bedrooms to rest first. We can talk about the rest later."

"okay."

Ke Qing responded and looked at Qigong: "Qigong, do you prefer to live upstairs or downstairs?"

The business owner replied gently, "I'm not that picky about where I live; upstairs or downstairs is fine."

"Then, you can stay upstairs. The bedrooms I arranged for Hu Tao and Gan Yu are also upstairs, so you'll be right next to each other."

Ke Qing smiled at the company, then looked at Hu Tao, who was wandering around the living room, seemingly plotting something, and called out, "Hu Tao, come on, we're getting you a bedroom!"

Then, he smiled at the company and said, "Come with me."

After saying that, he went up the stairs first.

Upon reaching the second floor, Ke Qing first arranged bedrooms for Enterprise, Hu Tao, and Gan Yu, and had them put away their luggage. Then, Ke Qing asked Enterprise if she wanted to rest or have something to eat. After receiving the answer that Enterprise, who looked tired, needed to sleep for a while, Ke Qing left Enterprise's bedroom and closed the door behind her.

After Keqing left the bedroom, Qiye yawned wearily, took off his clothes and shoes without taking them off, lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and looked like he was fast asleep.

But the company's ears are straining to gather every possible sound.

Also on the second floor, diagonally opposite the company's bedroom, in Gan Yu's bedroom, Gan Yu sat on the edge of the bed, Ke Qing sat on a chair, and Hu Tao sat on the desk, swinging her legs idly. The three of them were huddled together.

Have you found any news about him?

The first to speak was not Gan Yu, but Hu Tao, who had been curiously looking around without any sense of urgency.

Ke Qing glanced at Hu Tao with some surprise, thought for a moment, and replied according to her pre-prepared plan: "He..."

"and many more."

Gan Yu interrupted Ke Qing, pointed towards the company bedroom, and gave Ke Qing a look: "Want to talk in another room?"

Ke Qing shook her head: "Don't worry, I had soundproofing done in every bedroom in the villa beforehand. Even if someone were eavesdropping outside the door right now, they wouldn't hear a sound, let alone through a hallway."

"Huh? You're pretty amazing, Ke Qing. You even thought of something this small. You're truly remarkable!"

Hu Tao showered Ke Qing with praise without reservation.

"No, I only did the soundproofing because I heard someone else's advice."

Ke Qing appeared calm on the surface, but she was actually feeling a little guilty.

Actually, when she first started decorating the villa, she didn't really think about soundproofing. But later, when she was collecting information and materials online and preparing to seduce Ye Ming, Ke Qing, who had studied a lot of information, suddenly realized that if everyone lived together in the future, privacy was an issue that had to be taken into consideration.

You see, everyone in Liyue is a powerful individual with keen hearing and extraordinary abilities. With their hearing, it would be incredibly easy for them to overhear something. Although they generally wouldn't and wouldn't bother to do so, it's not necessarily the case for Ye Ming.

At the very least, Ke Qing felt that if Ye Ming and Gan Yu slept in the same bedroom, she would definitely be curious.

Judging from her own experience, Ke Qing felt that Hu Tao and Gan Yu must be just like her. Even Qi Qi, who seemed innocent and quiet, might have the idea of ​​eavesdropping.

Keqing didn't want her time with Ye Ming to be broadcast live to her Liyue companions, so she immediately found a professional construction team to soundproof all the bedrooms.

"Alright, hurry up and tell me, have you found any news about him?"

Ke Qing had only been silent for a few seconds when Hu Tao began to urge her impatiently.

Compared to the anxious Hu Tao, Gan Yu, sitting by the bed, looked much more composed. However, her beautiful purple eyes, fixed on Ke Qing, still betrayed her inner anticipation and nervousness.

Feeling slightly guilty as her companion stared at her with those eyes, Keqing felt a little guilty.

However, after hesitating for a moment, Ke Qing gritted her teeth and, following the established plan, shook her head, saying with a dejected expression, "I'm sorry, there are just too many people in China. Although we've only found a few people with the same name so far, but..."

At this point, Ke Qing paused deliberately before saying with a guilty look, "So far, I haven't been able to find any concrete information about him."

"What?"

Upon hearing this, Hu Tao looked disappointed and complained, "If I had known, I would have put him in a coffin and buried him in the grave before he left, and then kept his soul with me. Without a body, let's see if he can still disappear without saying goodbye!"

As one of the Seven Stars of Liyue and the current head of the Hall of Resurrection, Hu Tao has the ability to see the souls of the dead.

Keqing remained silent. Although Hu Tao did indeed possess the ability to do such a thing, Keqing knew that Hu Tao was only speaking in anger. Among Liyue's companions, some might harbor resentment over Ye Ming's sudden disappearance, but no one would actually harm Ye Ming.

Looking at Hu Tao and Gan Yu's disappointed expressions, she felt a deep sense of guilt.

But what could she do?

It was agreed that she would go first, and after finding Ye Ming, everyone would be notified, and everyone would compete fairly based on their own abilities.

When Ke Qing first came to China, she did indeed intend to compete fairly. However, upon seeing Ye Ming, she couldn't control herself and impulsively ran away without telling her companions.

Originally, Ke Qing thought there was plenty of time in the future to carefully plan how to win back her companions' forgiveness, but Gan Yu and Hu Tao's surprise attack completely disrupted Ke Qing's plans, leaving her with no time to prepare.

For now, the only option is to temporarily conceal Ye Ming's whereabouts, buy time, and find an opportunity to slowly win over one's companions. After a few days of buffer time, one can confess and then actively create opportunities for one's companions to spend time with Ye Ming in order to gain their forgiveness.

Having come to this unfamiliar world together for so many years, we have long since become sisters who rely on each other. Keqing has no intention of destroying this sincere sisterly bond.

but……

Standing at the finish line and watching Gan Yu and Hu Tao warming up on the starting line, it felt really good.

A mere loser.

A sinful sense of pleasure arose in Ke Qing's heart.

Chapter 72 Mondstadt Party? Liyue Party!

Gan Yu remained silent.

Even though she had prepared herself mentally before coming to China, she still couldn't help but feel disappointed when she heard Ke Qing's answer.

After all, who wouldn't want to fly to their loved one's side as soon as possible?

Even though Gan Yu is the messenger of the Seven Stars of Liyue, the secretary of the Moonlit Pavilion, and a celestial being born during the Demon God War with the blood of the Kirin flowing through her veins, she is still a girl after all, and she still has someone she likes. It is only natural for her to miss her beloved.

However, seeing Ke Qing's somewhat evasive gaze and guilty look when she looked at her, Gan Yu, unaware of Ke Qing's thoughts, assumed that Ke Qing was feeling guilty for not doing things well. After thinking for a moment, the naturally elegant and quiet Gan Yu suppressed her disappointment and comforted her companion.

"It's alright, Ke Qing. China has a vast territory and a large population. It's normal that you can't find any news about him for a while. There's no need to feel guilty about it."

Gan Yu's voice was gentle: "Now, let's all cheer up and work together to manage Liyue well. Finding his whereabouts as soon as possible is what we should be doing. Cheer up, okay, Keqing?"

"That's right! Cheer up, Keqing! We all believe in your abilities!"

Hu Tao jumped off the table, walked behind Ke Qing, and slapped Ke Qing's shoulder hard, startling the guilty and ashamed Ke Qing.

"I'm sorry, Gan Yu, I'm sorry, Hu Tao, it's all my fault!"

Ke Qing lowered her head and apologized: "If you ever try to hit me again, I swear, I will never fight back!"

Why would we hit you?

Gan Yu smiled gently: "We have relied on each other in this unfamiliar world for so many years, and we are already like sisters. This feeling is more precious than anything else. I believe that nothing can shake this sisterly bond."

Hearing Gan Yu's words, Ke Qing lowered her head in shame.

Gan Yu looked at Ke Qing, who was both moved and ashamed by her words, and smiled gently, but in reality, her emotions were complicated.

What to say?

When she first heard that Ke Qing hadn't been able to find Ye Ming, she was indeed very disappointed. But now that she'd calmed down, she felt that it wasn't so bad that Ye Ming hadn't been found by Ke Qing.
