Chapter 291: Final Chapter "Even if Ah Zhi becomes an old grandfather...
291
Li Xiaoqi slowly woke up and heard the familiar sound of birds singing from outside the window.
The night sky outside the window is twinkling with stars, and a wind crystal butterfly flies quietly past the window.
Li Xiaoqi threw back the covers, yawned, stretched, and muttered, "Damn it, I won't be able to sleep tonight again."
"It's all Master's fault. Why are you drinking cider..."
She got out of bed, put on her slippers, and went to the mirror to fix her hair.
Li Xiaoqi snapped her fingers, and the nightgown on her body turned into the light yellow long dress she usually wore, and her long hair was automatically combed into two pigtails as usual.
In the world of Teyvat, she inherited some of Barbatos' power and has some convenient life skills.
She looked around at the pastoral-style room she had decorated with her own hands, and patted her cheeks in good spirits.
The whole house is made of wood. The wooden bed is covered with a mattress and floral sheets and quilt. The bed is against the wall, and there is a rectangular window and windowsill on the wall. White daisy-patterned curtains block the view outside the window.
There are two pots of plants on the windowsill, which are snapdragons transplanted by Li Xiaoqi nearby.
Li Xiaoqi blinked slowly. The orange-yellow snapdragon looked like a tulip, and he suddenly thought of the snapdragon in a certain hell.
"Why didn't I think of it at the beginning..."
She said with amusement.
Next to the window is a bookshelf made of wood cut down from a nearby forest. On the bookshelf are jewelry boxes and various strange ornaments made of wood, such as a kitten holding a fish, a dog chewing a bone, etc.
On the other side of the bed is a planned leisure area, which also has a large window. The outer frame of the window is covered with vines. There is a pea green double sofa under the window, with storage cabinets on both sides of the sofa and a round coffee table in front, which is also covered with a floral tablecloth.
Li Xiaoqi took a deep breath, and the fresh air from the Fengqi Land rushed into his nostrils, and he immediately felt in a very good mood.
The aroma filled the air, and she moved her nose and smelled the sweet scent of stuffed chicken.
Li Xiaoqi couldn't wait to open the door, hurried downstairs, turned a corner and walked into the living room.
In the living room, Barbatos and Zhongli were sitting on the sofa, with three cups of hot tea on the coffee table.
Li Xiaoqi blinked and saw Dazai Osamu sitting opposite the two gods.
Dazai Osamu looked over, arched his eyebrows, and greeted with a smile: "Xiao Qi, good evening."
His smile was particularly bright, and he looked at her as if he had seen a savior.
Li Xiaoqi rubbed his eyes and looked at Dazai Osamu in disbelief.
"Dazai-ji?!!!"
The surprised sound penetrated the roof, startling the wind crystal butterfly hovering nearby.
Dazai Osamu covered his ears, and seeing Li Xiaoqi so surprised, the smile on his lips couldn't help but widen.
"Surprised, right? I'm surprised too."
Barbatos laughed and said, "Cecilia, he came to Teyvat under the power of that system, but when he came here, the system no longer appeared."
Zhongli looked towards the kitchen and warned, "Speaking of which, if you don't put out the fire, the sweet flower stuffed chicken will be overcooked."
"Oh, I almost forgot. I was so busy talking."
Barbatos hit his head and hurried to the kitchen to turn off the fire.
Li Xiaoqi suddenly came back to his senses, and couldn't help but raise his mouth, "Eh... that system... eh???"
Dazai Osamu smiled softly and said, "But it's great that I can finally see you."
Zhongli groaned, then stood up and looked towards the kitchen.
"I'll go help."
After saying that, Zhongli disappeared onto the sofa at an extremely fast speed.
Li Xiaoqi coughed lightly, his brown eyes flashing with anticipation.
"It's not very convenient to talk here...how about we go out for a walk?"
Dazai Osamu nodded, glanced at the kitchen secretly, and seeing that Barbatos and Zhongli didn't pay attention to him, he quickly took Li Xiaoqi's hand and walked out the door.
He breathed a sigh of relief the moment the door closed.
The two walked hand in hand for a distance, the moonlight fell on the grass, and the sweet flowers swayed in the wind.
Li Xiaoqi blinked slowly and asked curiously, "Why are you so nervous? My master won't eat people."
Dazai Osamu shook his head repeatedly and said, "Barbatos and Zhongli have been examining me. They haven't said anything, but I always feel like everything about me is exposed to the eyes of those two gods."
"That invisible pressure is terrible."
Li Xiaoqi chuckled softly and said jokingly, "Is that so? Why don't I feel that way?"
Dazai Osamu curled his lips and complained, "Of course you don't think so. After all, one is your master who you treat as family, and the other is your elder who asked your master to take care of you."
Li Xiaoqi chuckled and smiled with his eyes curved.
Dazai Osamu lowered his eyes to look at her smiling face under the moonlight, and unconsciously raised the corners of his lips.
He stopped and tightened Li Xiaoqi's hand.
The moonlight illuminated his face, and his iris-colored eyes were filled with beautiful starlight.
In the distance, the wind slime was having fun under the tree, constantly blowing up small wind fields, and the sound of leaves rustling could be heard.
Dazai Osamu took out a golden ring from his pocket and gently put it on the ring finger of Li Xiaoqi's right hand.
"Don't lose this again."
Li Xiaoqi was stunned. The golden ring was flashing with tiny light, which contrasted with the same ring on Dazai Osamu's right ring finger.
"What about the port mafia while you're here?"
She asked.
Dazai Osamu squeezed her hand and shrugged, "I'll leave it to Chuuya."
Li Xiaoqi's eyes widened. "Didn't they beat you up there?"
Dazai Osamu snorted twice and said proudly, "He has no chance."
Li Xiaoqi shook his head and said, "If I were to see you again in the future, I would definitely beat you up."
"You didn't even say goodbye?"
Dazai Osamu curled his lips and spread his hands, "You know how the system works."
Li Xiaoqi smiled helplessly and raised his hand to knock on Dazai Osamu's forehead.
"Well, as for Mr. Chuuya, I think he would rather you live a good life, even though he always hates you like that."
"Tsk~"
Dazai Osamu murmured.
The two walked under the big tree, looked at the tombstone in front of the statue, and held each other's hands tightly.
Li Xiaoqi curled the corners of his lips, squatted down and stroked the tombstone.
“Why keep it?”
Behind him, Dazai Osamu asked.
Li Xiaoqi glanced sideways, smiled, and said, "Leave a thought for me. Now I completely belong to Teyvat."
"Li Xiaoqi from that world has already gone to where he should be."
Dazai Osamu opened his lips slightly, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
"Aren't you going to ask me how I died?"
"Do you want to say something?"
"Well...I don't want to."
A look of heartache flashed in Dazai Osamu's eyes, and he stepped forward and hugged Li Xiaoqi.
"Forget it."
Li Xiaoqi patted Dazai Osamu on the back and said, "The system didn't let me remember it."
"Yeah……"
Dazai Osamu closed his eyes lightly and hugged Li Xiaoqi tightly.
Suddenly, Li Xiaoqi heard Dazai Osamu's somewhat uneasy conversation.
"If I turned into a wrinkled old grandfather, would you still want me?"
Li Xiaoqi blinked, came out of Dazai Osamu's arms, and then burst into laughter.
When Dazai Osamu heard Li Xiaoqi's laughter, an uneasy look appeared on his face.
"Don't laugh, you'll definitely be disgusted."
Li Xiaoqi blinked his left eye and said playfully, "No—even if Ah Zhi becomes an old grandfather, I will still love you."
Dazai Osamu was slightly startled, and a gentle curve appeared on his lips.
Suddenly, a strong blue light emerged from the statue, and two figures, one big and one small, appeared in front of the statue.
Li Xiaoqi narrowed his eyes and recognized the figure in the light.
Her eyes lit up and she rushed towards the person who came.
"fluorescent--"
The blonde girl quickly hugged Li Xiaoqi, staggered a step, and a happy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Cecilia, long time no see."
"Yeah, long time no see!"
Paimon flew to Li Xiaoqi to say hello, and soon she saw Dazai Osamu.
"Cecilia, it's been so long since we last met. Did you bring back a boyfriend from another world?"
She laughed teasingly and made a quip.
Li Xiaoqi took a step back and coughed lightly in embarrassment.
"Yes, yes, so what?... And Master also agrees..."
Dazai Osamu blinked and understood what Li Xiaoqi meant.
He smiled in the moonlight, "Xiao Qi, are you saying that Master has recognized me?"
Paimon and Ying crossed their arms and shook their heads at the cheap grin Dazai was giving them.
"If Wendy doesn't agree, Mr. Dazai, you won't even be qualified to enter the house. You might even be thrown into the Sea of Silence."
"The Sea of Silence? What kind of place is that?"
Dazai Osamu asked curiously.
Ying narrowed her eyes and answered mysteriously, "That's a place where even the wind can't reach."
"It's—terrible!"
Paimon said emphatically, his hands on his hips.
Dazai scratched his cheek and said in mock fear, "Wow, that's scary."
When Li Xiaoqi saw Dazai Osamu being teased, he immediately changed sides and looked at Ying with a sly smile in his eyes.
"Ying, you and Xiao..."
As expected, Ying's face turned slightly red and she immediately shook her head.
"What are you talking about? We have nothing!"
"Nothing at all?"
Zhongli's voice came.
Everyone turned around and saw Zhongli and Barbatos standing not far away, looking at them with a smile.
Ying met Zhongli's gaze and coughed unnaturally.
Barbatos chuckled softly, "Looks like everyone's finished chatting. Dinner's ready, let's eat together."
Li Xiaoqi and Ying looked at each other and cheered with Paimeng.
"yeah--!!!"
Barbatos and Zhongli walked towards the wooden house first, and Paimon followed closely behind, holding Ying.
The moonlight lengthened everyone's shadows, weaving them together on the grass.
Li Xiaoqi and Dazai Osamu clasped hands and ran towards the warm light emanating from the wooden house.
Two people's footprints were left on the grass, and the shadows of their clasped hands were eternal in the moonlight.
The Wind Crystal Butterfly brushed against the grass, leaving an indentation in the air.
A man with white hair and red eyes suddenly appeared and fell heavily on the grass.
He touched his buttocks with a look of pain on his face and looked around in confusion.
"What kind of half-baked Yin-Yang magic did those two sisters use to get me to where?"
"Kagura, Shinbaji——"
Suddenly, the man saw the backs of a group of people in front of him and immediately shouted, "Stop—"
When a familiar voice came, Li Xiaoqi and Dazai Osamu opened their eyes wide in surprise. They turned around and saw their good friend Sakata Gintoki rushing towards them.
"Um?"
Ying, Paimon, Zhongli, and Barbatos looked puzzled.
Li Xiaoqi and Dazai Osamu looked at each other, and when Sakata Gintoki ran up to them, each of them held up Sakata Gintoki with one hand.
"Since we're here, let's eat first."
“Eh—???”
Sakata Gintoki's surprised shout echoed in the air.
It was late at night and the sound of clinking glasses could be heard in the wooden house.
The aroma of cider filled the air, and hearty laughter echoed across the sky of Teyvat.
Fin.
