No one responded.

Jing Cheng, who was supposed to be guarding outside the tent, was not there.

"Hmph, no one will save you even if you scream your lungs out. This is my dream, and I won't allow him to appear."

Ke Qing snuggled closer to him, pressing herself even tighter.

There was only a layer of clothing between her skin and Han Fulai's chest, and she could clearly feel his body temperature.

His embrace was broad and warm, his arms strong and powerful, like large wings that could shelter her from the wind and rain, making her feel very safe. She could entrust everything to him, and she had nothing to fear. Ke Qing felt her body growing weaker and weaker, as if she had lost all her strength.

It feels so good to lie in his arms like this. I just want to stay like this forever.

No, that's not enough.

Ke Qing closed her eyes and slightly pouted her lips.

The tent flap was suddenly pulled open.

The next second, a cold voice came: "It seems I've come at the wrong time."

Chapter 380 No, you've come at just the right time [4k5]

"It seems I've come at the wrong time."

Upon hearing this, Han Fulai turned around in astonishment.

The person before him was dressed in white as frost, with skin as white as snow, a pure and ethereal appearance, and flowing hair like a waterfall. The tight-fitting, waist-cinching fairy-like attire outlined her perfect figure like a meticulous ink painting, further highlighting her elegant and graceful bearing. However, the cold sharpness in her eyes sent a chill down Han Fulai's spine.

The person who arrived was Shen He, Han Fulai's fiancée.

Hearing the sound, Ke Qing opened her eyes and turned to look at Shen He at the door.

"Why are you here?" Ke Qing blinked.

The atmosphere was just right...

"Ah He, what brings you here?" Han Fulai blurted out at the same time.

Their voices blended together in a wonderful way.

As soon as he said it, Han Fulai felt that something was wrong.

—Oh no, what does this situation mean to Shen He?

He was now sitting on the bed, one hand holding Ke Qing's shoulder, the other hand pulled to his chest by Ke Qing. Ke Qing lay half-naked in his arms, and just moments before she had tilted her head back to kiss him, as if asking for a kiss.

You could call it foreplay, or you could call it aftercare...

Four words immediately popped into Han Fulai's chaotic mind: "Caught in the act of adultery."

Moreover, his subconscious question just now unfortunately bumped into Ke Qing, sounding like he was complaining about Shen He interrupting his good time?

Shen He looked at the two people on the bed and replied expressionlessly, "My husband said he needed my help, so I came. It seems I shouldn't have come."

Oh no, how could I forget! Ah Qing, you really got sick at the worst possible time!

Han Fulai was roaring inside.

Hearing Shen He say this, he finally remembered that he had asked Xiao for help before.

In addition to asking Xiao to investigate the water volume data of the Bishui River, he also asked Xiao to go to Mount Aozang first and ask his son, Ahe, to come and help.

Shen He was his backup plan for the flood relief efforts in Guiliyuan.

When Ningguang gave him the choice, Han Fulai had already decided to do everything in his power to protect Guiliyuan.

From a political perspective, the "Guili New District" is their greatest achievement at present and the biggest source of popular support. From an economic perspective, the development of Guili Plains has provided a large number of jobs for Liyue's laborers and is also the best channel for the circulation of Liyue currency.

As long as there is even a one percent chance, Han Fulai will never give up on Guiliyuan.

Even though Ningguang's arrival added a variable to the matter—the diversion of floodwaters in Mingyun Town—Han Fulai actually had a "win-win" solution.

This method relies on Shen He's strength.

"A single talisman can stop the calamity, and a towering sea can be transformed into an ice cone"—Han Fulai witnessed Shen He's feat of freezing the tsunami during his battle with Ba Che.

Tsunamis can freeze, and flood peaks can too.

Data on the third flood peak is currently unknown. Even if Galcha's prediction is very accurate and the flood peak does not exceed the maximum height of the Guiliyuan flood control dike, the strength of the dike may not be able to withstand it.

Han Fulai's own strength was at a low point because he was helping Xiao resist "karmic obstacles". He had almost exhausted himself in the past two days, so he thought of adding a "reserve team" for the flood relief efforts in Guiliyuan.

If we use the analogy of a siege battle, a fresh force that has been hidden until the very end, when it is pushed onto the city wall at the crucial moment, is often the decisive move that determines the outcome.

If Shen He were here, there would be much more room for maneuver in reinforcing dikes with frost, creating ice walls, or even freezing flood peaks at critical moments, and there would be more confidence in withstanding the flood peaks.

The Liyue Ascetics are not involved in Liyue's political struggles, but it's perfectly acceptable for them to extend a helping hand to the people of Liyue in the face of natural disasters. Xiao can help him investigate water volume data, so Shenhe can certainly help him fight the floods. Shenhe is human, and more importantly, she's his fiancée; there's no need for him to distinguish between them.

Moreover, this was originally intended to mobilize power for the well-being of the majority of the people of Liyue.

Han Fulai is living off Shen He's kindness openly and honestly.

—That's how it should have been.

But now it seems that's not necessarily the case...

Han Fulai's back began to sweat.

Theoretically, there is a long distance from Mount Okuzo to Kiriba, so even with Shin-haku's speed, he shouldn't have arrived so quickly. What a coincidence!

The scene before him was just like when he first transmigrated to the continent of Teyvat, and Gan Yu pointed an arrow at his head.

Although the characters, time, and place are different, the coldness in Shen He and Gan Yu's eyes is the same—it can only be said that they are both ice-type master sisters.

Gan Yu used an arrow, and Shen He would probably grab his head and slam it to the ground three times.

People will die from both.

Never mind, I don't have time to think about it now.

Han Fulai suddenly smiled, released Ke Qing's shoulder, and extended his hand to Shen He: "No, Ahe, you've come at just the right time."

Outside the tent, Jing Cheng, who was supposed to be guarding the gate, carefully bowed to the immortal in front of him.

Although this immortal looked young and wasn't very tall, appearing to be a boy... he really did fly down from the sky, and he even brought a fairy with him.

Although Han Fulai, this "Divine Lord," is miraculous, he still walks on the ground on two legs. This one, however, can fly! He is definitely a legendary immortal!

"I... I am Jing Cheng, currently serving as a guard on the Jade Balance Star. May I ask your title, Immortal?"

“Immortal yakshas, ​​demons,” the young immortal replied simply.

"So, it's the Great Sage Who Subdues Demons! I was blind and didn't recognize you, Immortal. Please forgive me." Jing Cheng bowed repeatedly.

Jing Cheng wasn't present when Han Fulai summoned Xiao in Patrick's tent, so he didn't recognize this immortal.

Yun Jin's "The Record of the Rebirth of Cinnabar" sparked a Yaksha craze in Liyue Harbor. The Great Sage Who Subdues Demons is already a well-known figure as the only remaining Immortal Yaksha. In addition, Wang Ping'an distributes research booklets about Immortal Yaksha in Liyue Harbor. Jing Cheng, who usually works in Liyue Harbor, is naturally very familiar with him.

This time I finally got to see the real person.

After Xiao flew to the camp with Shen He, he went to find Han Fulai. Han Fulai had a contractual connection with Shen He and led him directly to Ke Qing's tent.

Jing Cheng had been standing guard outside the tent, preventing unauthorized personnel from approaching, but this time it was an immortal who had returned. With an immortal descending, how could he dare to stop him?

Thus, the scene of Shenhe Goddess descending from the sky came about.

"Then, may I ask, Immortal... who was that fairy who went in just now?" As Keqing's personal guard, Jingcheng dared not stop the immortal, but it was his duty to ask.

"Shen He".

"Ah, it really is that goddess!" Jing Cheng exclaimed excitedly.

Xiao was only mentioned by name, but "Goddess Split View" is a famous song that is popular all over Liyue.

Commander-in-Chief Han is indeed no ordinary man. If it weren't for following him, how could we have met so many legendary figures? Jing Cheng's admiration for Han Fulai has risen to a new level.

However, despite his admiration, Jing Cheng is quite worried if Shen He's relationship with Han Fulai is as rumored...

Jing Cheng didn't dare to peek inside Ke Qing's tent, but she still managed to eavesdrop through the curtain to get a glimpse of what was going on.

—Sounds like "Keep going...don't stop" somehow reached his ears.

He was a very sensible man. Upon hearing the sound, he immediately moved the other guards as far away as possible, and he himself stayed far away from the tent to ensure that no one could hear the sounds coming from inside. Of course, he didn't hear Han Fulai calling him from inside.

The best thing to do in this situation is to pretend you don't know.

But now he has no choice but to know.

After struggling to find the right words, he finally blurted out, "...Immortal, I have another question. Is that goddess really Commander Han's fiancée?"

Shen He is outwardly a hero who fights against Ba Che, the goddess in "The Goddess Splits the Temple," and also the secretary and assistant at Yuehai Pavilion. However, her relationship with Han Fulai has never been widely publicized. The identity of this fiancée is mainly gossip spread by Tian Tiezui and his gang of storytellers, with various embellishments. People just listen to it as gossip during their leisure time.

After all, he and Ningguang have quite a few gossip stories.

In Jing Cheng's eyes, Han Fulai and Ke Qing were more genuine...

Xiao tilted his head, wondering why the Thousand Rock Army soldier had suddenly asked this question. However, it wasn't exactly a secret, so he answered truthfully, "Yes."

"Then...may I be allowed to go in...?" Jing Cheng asked, forcing himself to speak.

He had already failed in his duty by not stopping Shen He, and given the “don’t stop” situation inside, Jing Cheng could basically imagine what would happen… As a bodyguard, Jing Cheng also had the responsibility of protecting Yuheng Star.

Ke Qing is known for her strictness. If he suffers a loss in the "war of women" and is blamed afterwards, he can't afford to bear the consequences.

Actually, he had wanted to go in earlier, but Xiao stood guard at the door like a door god, and he dared not overstep his bounds.

"It's alright, don't worry about it," Xiao replied seriously, arms crossed.

When Shen He lifted the curtain and entered, Xiao, with his immortal eyesight, caught a glimpse of what was happening inside. So he didn't follow him in, but instead stood in the doorway.

Based on Xiao's past experience, anyone caught in the middle trying to mediate between Yingda and Fanan when the two girls are bickering will suffer the consequences.

Han Fulai's situation is likely to be even worse.

Well, Han Fulai is his friend now, so he has to help his friend save face, at least make sure his subordinates don't see him being beaten.

This must be my dream, right?

Why are my dreams beyond my control?

Or is it that I actually feel guilty towards Shen He, and that guilt is reflected in my dream?

In fact, Han Fulai had invited Ke Qing to Shen He's birthday party in March. However, Ke Qing deliberately declined, citing being busy with work.

She was afraid she would be jealous if she saw it.

When girls get jealous, they become unlike themselves.

—They clearly danced with me during the Lantern Festival, strolled through the lantern market together, and solved lantern riddles together…

—We've been through so much together, and we've even shared secrets with each other…

—I was the one who met him first, I was the one who liked him first…

She was really scared, afraid that she would say "He is mine" at Shen He's birthday party.

She knew that to Han Fulai, she was more like a partner, a friend, and a "comrade-in-arms".

On the battlefield, it's normal to rescue each other and entrust your back to one another. For this "comrade-in-arms," ​​Keqing would make a miner's lamp for him by hand, risk her life to descend into the abyss alone, and rush to save him without hesitation when boulders were falling.

Actually, "comradeship in arms" is quite good, Keqing once convinced herself of this.

But she knew that the "comradeship" had long since turned into "possessiveness".

She really wanted to possess him.

She can't fool herself.

But it's just a dream! Why can't I let myself go even in my dreams?

Ke Qing bit her lower lip.

Shen He was actually quite worried about Han Fulai the whole way.

Upon hearing that it was her own brother Han who was asking for help, Shen He didn't want to wait a moment longer and immediately asked Xiao to take her there.

As the saying goes, "If my husband curses, I yell back; if my husband fights, I hand him a knife." Although she and Han Fulai are not yet married, they have already consummated their marriage. They follow each other's lead, and for Shen He, this is a matter of course.

Shen He is just that good.

Xiao wasn't originally interested in doing "Yaksha Logistics," but he couldn't resist Shen He's urgent request—considering that he had already acted as a "porter" more than once because of Han Fulai, he didn't mind taking one more person with him...

She rushed over only to find her husband embracing Ah Qing. Her worry turned into bitterness, which then turned into anger.

Is this what they call "jealousy"?

According to the master, this situation is called "indulging in philandering," and according to worldly rules, one should be punished by kneeling on a washboard to reflect on one's actions.
