Takumi didn't expect that Shenhe actually knew Lumineer.
Moreover, it seemed their relationship wasn't bad at all.
Lumineer always gave Shenhe strange books.
Books teaching her how to be a qualified bride.
Books listing one hundred ways to make a man fall deeply in love with you.
Books saying what a main wife should do.
Thinking of the books Shenhe read, the corners of Takumi's mouth twitched slightly.
No wonder Shenhe was willing to try certain things.
Her thoughts had been misled by Lumineer.
Takumi originally thought Shenhe had been tricked.
In the end, he was the one overthinking it.
Shaking his head, Takumi didn't dwell on it.
At this moment, Shenhe looked at him with embarrassment.
"Any questions?"
Takumi shook his head.
"No, no problem."
"I just thought you were pregnant."
Sighing, Takumi stopped thinking about it.
When Shenhe heard this, she rubbed her stomach.
Then she said with some dejection:
"I would like to be, but it just doesn't seem to work."
"Takumi… do you think I'm useless?"
Shenhe touched her stomach in disappointment.
It had been so long, yet she still hadn't become pregnant.
Because of this, she felt very discouraged.
Chiyou-jun Liuyun had even checked her body and said she was perfectly healthy.
Seeing her like this, Takumi found it a little funny.
"Didn't I tell you?"
"It's because I'm too strong."
"So it's normal you haven't gotten pregnant."
"Don't worry, take your time."
"We still have plenty of time."
Shenhe shook her head lightly.
"Plenty?"
"Maybe."
She didn't think about it anymore.
Maybe there would be a chance in the future.
Takumi was simply too strong—there wasn't much she could do.
The two of them didn't go anywhere afterward.
Keqing didn't return that night; she stayed at Liyue Harbor to help oversee demolition work.
So only Takumi, Shenhe, Nuwa'er, and Klee were at home.
Aside from that, Paimon and Lumine also came by to eat.
The next morning, after waking up, Takumi remembered his promise to Kamisato Ayaka.
After telling Shenhe he was heading out, he left the house.
He went straight to the place he had agreed to meet Ayaka.
As for Shenhe, she went to find Chiyou-jun Liuyun to see if there was anything she could help with.
Everyone else went about their usual routines.
Takumi arrived at the meeting spot with Ayaka Kamisato.
At that moment, Linghua was already waiting.
"You're here!"
Seeing Kamisato Ayaka today, Takumi's eyes brightened.
Really good. Truly good.
High school girl model!!
"No, I just got here."
"So, where are we going?"
Seeing Takumi, Kamisato Linghua's eyes shone with delight.
She even jogged toward him.
Hearing her question, Takumi thought for a moment, then said:
"You've already visited all the places around Liyue Harbor and Guiliyuan."
"Today, I'll take you to see some scenic spots in Liyue."
"Liyue's scenery is very beautiful."
"Especially at this time of year."
"The snow on the mountains hasn't melted yet."
"Some places look incredible."
Hearing that, Kamisato ayaka eyes lit up instantly.
"Okay!"
She had no objections.
Takumi waved his hand, opened a spatial passage, and walked in.
When they reappeared, they had arrived at Guyun Pavilion.
Arriving there, ayaka looked around with surprise.
"This is Guyun Pavilion?"
Takumi nodded.
"That's right. This is Guyun Pavilion."
"Let's take a walk."
"Some places here are very nice."
"And from here, you can even enjoy the view of the snow-covered mountains."
"This will be our first stop."
Saying that, he walked forward.
Guyun Pavilion truly was beautiful.
Ayaka had passed by it by boat before.
But she had never come ashore.
This was her first time here.
While walking, she suddenly noticed something.
It seemed many Ruin Guards had been dismantled.
She stared at them in surprise.
"Takumi, look over there."
"Why were those Ruin Guards removed?"
She was puzzled.
What happened?
Hearing her question, Takumi chuckled.
"That was me."
"These things are old but valuable."
"Just dismantling Ruin Guards earned quite a lot."
Takumi explained.
He still remembered how they made money here when Guiliyuan was first being built.
Hearing that, Kamisato Ayaka blinked.
So that was it.
She had heard people bought Ruin Guard parts before.
So it had been because of them.
No wonder.
After looking around for a while, Takumi took Kamisato Linghua to other places.
Ayaka was full of curiosity.
It was said that Guyun Pavilion had been created by the Geo Archon.
And that a demon god was sealed below.
Everything fascinated her.
As they explored, they encountered Hilichurls living in the area.
She also saw ancient relics.
And she saw a Geo Hypostasis as well.
After that, Takumi took her up the mountain to see the view of the snowy peaks.
The ruins and skyline of ancient Liyue were visible.
In addition, she could also see the rocket launch center.
If one's eyesight was good enough, Takumi's manor was visible too.
Seeing all this, Kamisato Linghua felt extremely happy.
She stole a glance at Takumi, then subconsciously moved closer.
But a sudden gust of sea breeze blew past, making her lose balance.
She fell directly into Takumi's arms.
Instantly, her face turned bright red.
Takumi looked at her with amusement.
"Be careful."
Hearing that, Kamisato Ayaka quickly nodded.
After regaining her balance, she subconsciously held onto Takumi's hand and didn't let go.
Takumi didn't say anything about it.
The two of them continued watching the scenery.
When they had seen enough, Takumi took her to the next location.
This time, they appeared atop Tianheng Mountain.
From here, they could see everything in Liyue Harbor.
They could even see the Jade Chamber floating nearby.
Seeing this, Kamisato Ayaka became excited.
She even took out her phone and took pictures.
Afterward, Takumi brought her to Jueyun Karst.
To Mt. Aozang, to the clouds, and to Guqing Gate.
He took Kamisato Linghua to all the scenic spots in Liyue.
She loved the views.
Without realizing it, she had taken many photos.
Before long, Takumi brought her to where the new railway would be built.
Then… they saw a fat dragon working hard.
Takumi stared at the fat dragon and muttered in his heart:
Good grief. Seriously?
Azhdaha, is this how you build roads?
