When they entered the hotel, Gan Yu held Ye Ming's hand tightly, her expression both happy and blissful. Yet, amidst the happiness, one could still discern a hint of shyness and awkwardness. But by the time they emerged from the hotel around 3 p.m., Gan Yu was like a flower bud that had survived a storm and was now blooming in the bright morning sun. Her smile was sweet and radiant. She held Ye Ming's arm tightly, her words and actions now completely natural and relaxed, her demeanor as if nourished, glowing with vitality and utterly captivating.

However, compared to Gan Yu, Ye Ming's condition was somewhat worse.

His steps were unsteady, and his eyes became calm and still, devoid of any worldly emotions. He leaned almost all his weight on Gan Yu. Whenever he tried to straighten up, a feeling of weakness would surge from deep within his waist, as if his bone marrow had been drained, leaving him feeling empty and exhausted.

To be honest, Ye Ming even suspected that if someone were to cut open his body and break his bones now, they might find that the bones were hollow and there wasn't a single drop of marrow left.

Despite this, Ye Ming felt completely satisfied.

Because of Gan Yu's gentle and kind voice, which is so lovely, she can always inspire him when he is tired and give him the courage to move forward.

Having a wife like that is wonderful.

Of course, that's what I think, but physical limitations are objectively real and cannot be ignored or overcome.

In the past few days, first it was Keqing, then Fu Hua, then today it was Hu Tao, and now it's Gan Yu. There have been many unexpected events in between. Ye Ming's physical strength and energy have been exhausted to the limit. He feels that even if Gan Yu, Keqing, and Hu Tao were standing in front of him right now, he wouldn't have any thoughts about them anymore, let alone act impulsively.

Humans, after all, have their limits.

However, amidst his感慨 (feelings of deep emotion), Ye Ming also wondered, "When exactly did my self-control become so poor?"

Ye Ming couldn't help but recall the simple and self-disciplined self he was when he first met Raffi.

When he first met Laffey, he was even hesitant to sleep with her. Later, when Fu Hua came, he even offered his bedroom to Fu Hua and Laffey. But after that, starting with Ke Qing, he unknowingly became the way he is now.

Looking back on the past and feeling the emptiness in his body now, Ye Ming secretly regretted his actions.

Ye Ming, you can't continue to indulge yourself like this, you absolutely can't!

Starting today, you must exercise regularly, stop overthinking, strengthen your will, stay calm and rational, and be a sunny and healthy man!

Keep it up, Ye Ming!

"Next time, could you please not grab my horns from behind?"

After leaving the hotel, Gan Yu noticed that Ye Ming remained silent for a long time, and his eyes kept changing, from being indifferent to worry, to regret, and now to determination. Gan Yu suddenly had a bad feeling.

She instinctively felt that Ye Ming seemed to have made up his mind about something.

After what happened, what thoughts could a man possibly have?

It's obvious that there might only be one.

Gan Yu felt she had guessed Ye Ming's terrible thoughts and couldn't help but plead softly, "I feel so strange, like a prisoner with my fate choked by someone, weak and powerless, as if my body no longer belongs to me, and my consciousness is gradually losing control along with my body, becoming strange."

My dear Gan Yu, how do you know so much? Stop talking, or my hard-won decision will be ruined!

"Cough cough, next time, next time for sure."

Ye Ming coughed lightly and agreed verbally, but in his mind, he couldn't help but recall the scene of him gripping the steering wheel with both hands just now.

That feeling...

It seems like there might be another chance next time?

Gan Yu was unaware of Ye Ming's inner thoughts. Seeing that Ye Ming agreed so readily, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

You know, as a hybrid of the mythical beast Qilin and a human, and a celestial being of Liyue, Gan Yu could remain calm and not cry even when she accidentally slipped and rolled down the mountainside as a child because the ground was too soft. But just now, when Ye Ming grabbed her horns unexpectedly, her mind went blank, she almost lost the ability to think, and tears almost welled up in her eyes.

That's not the demeanor a Liyue immortal should have. It's fine when no one's around, but when she's with Ye Ming, Gan Yu doesn't want to lose face in front of the person she likes.

Of course, it's not that she hates that feeling, but she can't say she likes it either. Gan Yu doesn't know how to describe it. In short, she feels like she's going to break down if things continue like that. It feels weird.

Originally, Gan Yu was wondering how to explain to Ye Ming, but seeing Ye Ming agree so readily, she breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but be moved by Ye Ming's thoughtfulness.

However, while moved, Gan Yu also had some concerns.

Will Ye Ming think I hate him?

However, this worry only lasted for a brief moment before disappearing.

Because Ye Ming spoke up.

"Gan Yu, have you ever played Genshin Impact?"

"Huh? I've played that before."

Gan Yu responded. Since accidentally learning about the game Genshin Impact a year ago, she and Keqing and Kurumi started playing it together for various reasons. When they first started playing, she used the character Luna to experience the Mondstadt storyline, and her feelings were quite complicated.

However, as the game was updated time and time again, the plot progressed step by step, and new characters appeared one after another, until Keqing won the reputation of being able to "scrape the skin" (a metaphor for being overpowered), and Gan Yu became the person who changed the game experience, Gan Yu's mood improved a lot.

During that time, her favorite thing to do was to play online games with Keqing.

"Then, do you still remember the storyline involving Qiqi?"

Ye Ming asked again.

"The plot of Qi Qi?"

Gan Yu was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized what was happening, and her fair face flushed red to the roots of her ears.

Is this a hint to me?

Is this compensation?

If I refuse again, will he think I hate him or get angry?

After hesitating for a long time, Gan Yu finally lowered her head and replied in a barely audible voice, "If you also want to be like Qi Qi."

Chapter 159 Two Women Stand Off Against Each Other

"For example, if you also want to be like Qiqi."

Gan Yu lowered her head, her voice so faint it was almost inaudible.

Why do I always feel like this Gan Yu is so knowledgeable and skilled? It's even better at playing than Keqing.

Ye Ming was greatly surprised to hear Gan Yu's answer.

He hadn't expected that Gan Yu would understand so quickly just from his brief mention.

Ye Ming felt that compared to Gan Yu, Hu Tao, who was usually quirky, arrogant, and bold but became helpless and only knew how to sob when things came to a head, was far less skilled.

Qiqi is a herb-gathering girl and apprentice at the herb hut "Bubu Lu". She is an immortal with a pale face. She usually speaks very little and has no expression. She once had an immortal body, which is called a zombie in the mortal world, due to a "fate". Her appearance is forever frozen in the year she passed away. She is an adorable little girl who is cute and taciturn. Her age is unknown.

The storyline about Qiqi that Ye Ming mentioned refers to a part of the main storyline of Genshin Impact where the Traveler, as the protagonist, needs Qiqi's help. Qiqi likes to drink coconut milk and has always believed that coconut milk is produced by a kind of demigod beast called Coconut Sheep, so she asks the Traveler to help her find Coconut Sheep.

However, the travelers searched for a long time but could not find it. Even the well-informed Rock God Zhongli said that he had never heard of such a beast. In the end, everyone realized that the Coconut Sheep was just a creature imagined by Qiqi.

At this point in the story, it was just a little girl's beautiful fantasy, but...

After Qiqi's storyline, Ganyu appears and invites travelers to meet Ningguang at Qunyu Pavilion. At this time, Ganyu introduces himself as a half-immortal (a hybrid of human and immortal). Ganyu also happens to have horns on his head, which is somewhat similar to the coconut sheep mentioned earlier. So, Ganyu quickly gets the title of coconut sheep, and coconut milk also becomes strange.

Because the Genshin Impact storyline cannot be skipped, most players are familiar with this part of the story. Ye Mingzhi mentioned this part because he felt guilty about his promise not to use Gan Yu's horn as a steering wheel, so he wanted to find something to distract Gan Yu.

But to his surprise, Gan Yu was so understanding and responded to him in this way.

This left Ye Ming completely bewildered.

No, you've misunderstood. I'm not that kind of person. I was just joking with you, I didn't mean anything by it. Don't take it seriously.

Although Ye Ming really wanted to put on a serious face and say it in a solemn manner to show his superiority, what if Gan Yu took it seriously after he said it?

To be honest, Ye Ming really wanted to go back to being Qi Qi.

But it doesn't seem right to just say I want it directly.

After all, no matter how you look at it, Gan Yu's words at this time seem to have a sense of compensation.

Accepting coconut milk likely means he won't be able to hold a steering wheel for a long time to come.

As an honest person, Ye Ming admitted that he wanted both of them.

"Gan Yu believes that getting along with someone requires patience. After all, there is still a long road ahead, and we have plenty of time to adjust, compromise, change, and work things out with each other. There is no need to rush."

Ye Ming said gently, "I understand your feelings and I am very touched. However, it's better to take things slowly. I believe that as long as we continue to get to know each other and patiently work things out, we will eventually find a rhythm that suits both of us."

What do you think, Gan Yu?

"Ah."

Gan Yu responded softly. After hearing Ye Ming's words, her originally tense and uneasy heart did indeed calm down a lot. After calming down, she also felt a little ashamed.

As it turns out, Ye Ming had no such thoughts at all; she had misunderstood.

Eh?

If he really didn't have those thoughts, then why did he agree so quickly when I said I was too tired and wanted to book a room to rest for a while and asked him to keep me company during dinner?

Moreover, he also...

The scene just now was too embarrassing, very much like some of the doujinshi featuring the female knight that Keqing had read by chance before. Gan Yu was a little embarrassed to continue thinking about it.

However, in terms of the result, it's actually quite good, isn't it?

Of the three sisters, she wasn't the first, but she wasn't the last either.

At the very least, they've left Hu Tao, that guy who dares to flaunt his relationship on social media, far behind.

This is something to be happy about.

As for Keqing...

snort!

At this very moment, Ke Qing, who believes that Hu Tao was the one who drugged her last night, is probably fighting fiercely with Hu Tao.

Although I feel a little guilty, who told Keqing and Kurumi to betray me first?

This is just a small punishment.

"Ye Ming, I'm a little tired. Let's go home."

Thinking of this, Gan Yu couldn't wait to go back and see the exciting scene of Ke Qing and Hu Tao fighting.

Just imagine, when Hu Tao and Ke Qing are fiercely fighting, tearing at each other's clothes and pulling each other's hair, Hu Tao makes a dazzling entrance, arm in arm with Ye Ming. What an interesting scene that would be!

"okay."

Ye Ming nodded in agreement. Actually, Ye Ming was so tired at the hotel that he had planned to take a nap first, but Gan Yu dragged him out.

Now, he just wants to go home, get a good night's sleep, and recharge.

"Let's take a taxi."

Gan Yu noticed Ye Ming's fatigue and smiled as she took out her phone.
