Teyvat, Mondstadt, the city of freedom.
The cold winter had already arrived.
Kai walked into the Knights of Favonius headquarters.
Feeling the biting cold emanating from his entire body, and the discomfort of the alternating temperatures around him,
He instinctively shivered.
It had been two full years since he chose to settle in Mondstadt.
As a Transmigrator,
Kai felt his luck was pretty good.
Not only did he casually transmigrate to this beautiful world, but he also got married within a few years of waking up and had a very beautiful wife.
Although she was a complete workaholic.
He weighed the lunchbox in his hand, which hadn't been affected by the cold wind at all.
Kai sighed, then skillfully walked towards the room on the left.
Then he knocked on the door... "Please come in."
"Click."
Pushing open the door, what greeted his eyes was a somewhat messy office.
An elegant figure sat at the desk directly opposite the door.
Her golden hair was tied into a ponytail, casually draped behind her.
She was buried in a frighteningly tall stack of documents, head bowed.
Although her clear blue eyes already revealed deep fatigue, even so, it could not conceal the unique charm emanating from her delicate face.
This was the strongest armed force in Mondstadt,
the Knights of Favonius Acting Grand Master Jean!
She was also Kai's wife.
"Hmph..."
Seeing this woman, who was completely engrossed in work and showed no intention of acknowledging him,
Kai gave her a displeased glance.
He then sighed and sat directly on a nearby sofa.
"Yo ~ Acting Grand Master is still working?"
"Hmm?"
The familiar voice made the woman buried in documents instantly look up.
Seeing the sudden arrival of the figure, a hint of surprise clearly appeared on her delicate expression.
She seemed not to have expected to see him here.
"Kai... why are you here?"
"Ah ~ a certain woman promised three days ago that she would definitely come home for dinner, but for three consecutive days, I haven't even seen a shadow of her."
"So I had no choice but to come over and see if she was still alive."
Kai leaned on the sofa with one hand.
His clear eyes casually surveyed the scenery outside the window, and he sighed leisurely, "Now it seems she's alive, but it looks like she's not planning on coming home?"
"Uh..."
"Has it really been three days already?"
The figure at the desk was slightly surprised.
She then rubbed her temples, looking pained, and showed an apologetic expression.
"I thought the last time we met was yesterday..."
"Yesterday?"
Kai frowned.
Staring at the empty coffee cup placed in front of her, he immediately understood something.
His expression gradually became somewhat displeased.
"I say... you haven't rested since that day we last met, have you?"
"This..."
Her tone suddenly became a bit stiff.
Pressured by Kai's gaze, Jean thought for a moment.
Finally, she lowered her head.
She seemed a little afraid to meet his eyes directly.
Kai's gaze instantly became indifferent.
"Working for three days straight without rest!"
"Last time you even asked Lisa for a potion that would allow you to not rest after drinking it?"
"Woman, are you trying to work yourself to death?!"
"I'm sorry, Kai... I've really been a bit busy with work lately."
Being lectured like this, Jean seemed a little flustered.
She then spoke in a somewhat apologetic tone.
"Anyway, I'll definitely come home tonight."
"Forget it, out of three hundred and sixty-five days a year,"
"I'd be thankful if I could see you at home for half that time."
Kai waved his hand, muttering to himself.
"I knew I should have stopped you from becoming the Acting Grand Master in the first place."
"I originally thought that being the Acting Grand Master would be more leisurely, without having to go out on missions every day."
"I didn't expect it to be this busy..."
"I'm telling you, is there no one else in Mondstadt? Do you have to do everything yourself?"
"I'm not at ease entrusting some things to them."
The woman replied weakly; after Kai's lecture, she had no intention of arguing at all.
"Heh!"
"Too lazy to talk to you..."
Kai originally intended to continue lecturing her.
However, after noticing the fatigue hidden beneath her delicate face, he eventually softened.
Then he raised his hand to open the lunchbox he had brought and asked grumpily, "Haven't eaten yet, have you?"
"Mm..."
"Here, brought it from home."
An enticing aroma instantly wafted out as the lunchbox was opened.
Inside the office, smelling the fragrance, Jean couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
Feeling her indeed hungry stomach, she thought for a moment and finally got up and walked towards Kai.
"Thank you, my Kai ~"
"Heh, now you know how to say thank you."
"What about standing me up for three days?"
Kai scoffed.
"If this continues, I'll dump you sooner or later."
"My Kai wouldn't do that."
She carefully walked to his side.
Her elegant figure naturally settled onto the sofa,
revealing a completely different temperament.
Then, she looked outside the door.
Feeling that no one should come in at this time, she took a deep breath and suddenly held Kai's hands.
