"Since you've figured out Yuanbao's grand plan, there's nothing I can do. Stop struggling pointlessly, Yuanbao wants to see!"
Yuanbao finished the last bite of ice cream in his bowl, chuckled, and walked slowly towards Qiqi.
"Yuanbao... Yuanbao, no!"
Qiqi held her small bowl, turned, and ran. She had to protect this bowl of ice cream.
"I really don't know what to do with you. Running away from Yuanbao is just a futile struggle, after all, I, Yuanbao, can fly~"
Fiery wings condensed from golden flames materialized behind Yuanbao. With a slight flap, he soared into the sky. His eyes, comparable to those of a divine eagle, instantly locked onto Qiqi, who was running with her short legs.
Seizing a gap in Qiqi's movement, he flapped his wings and accelerated, changing direction, and dived straight down, rushing towards Qiqi.
Qiqi felt something, her steps faltered, and then she moved in the opposite direction, successfully dodging Yuanbao's pounce.
She even had time to stop, take a bite of ice cream, and continue her escape.
Qiqi would not admit defeat in this "ice cream defense war."
Just as Qiqi was leading Yuanbao further and further away, a horrific bloody incident occurred on Feng Yi's side!
'Looking at Qiqi and Yuanbao, they don't seem to be in any trouble, and I felt nothing wrong when I ate it. How is it that Keqing and Shenhe are acting like they've taken aphrodisiacs after eating this ice cream?'
Feng Yi stroked his chin, analyzing carefully.
'Could it really be a matter of physique?'
Feng Yi let out a soft "yi" as he looked at Keqing and Shenhe, whose eyes were becoming increasingly hazy.
"Feng Yi, do you have any more ice cream? I want more!"
Keqing's current state was like a cat-girl, and her cat-ear hairstyle made it even more vivid.
All that was missing was a cat's tail!
'And... it looks like a female cat in heat!'
Feng Yi was startled by his own bold thought and quickly took a big bite of ice cream to calm himself.
Keqing knelt on the ground, supporting herself with her hands, and crawled towards Feng Yi.
Because she was lying on her stomach, her clothes became loose and sagged, no longer fitting her body. The two mounds under her chest, under the influence of gravity, drooped downwards, appearing to have grown larger.
If Keqing was like a cat, then Shenhe at this moment was more like a soul-stealing snow demon, walking towards Feng Yi with hazy eyes, just like Keqing.
"Wake up, you two! I've finished all the ice cream!"
Feng Yi showed the empty ice cream bowl to the two women, but it didn't wake them up. Instead, it made them even more "frenzied."
"Feng Yi, don't move. Let me check if you've hidden any ice cream on you?"
Keqing pounced on Feng Yi and began to unbutton his shirt.
Just as Feng Yi was about to struggle, he found that Shenhe was already unbuttoning his pants.
"Feng Yi~"
Shenhe took off her one-piece black stockings and then held down Feng Yi's struggling legs.
It was then that Feng Yi realized that today's battle was inevitable!
The fierce battle ultimately resulted in the two women bleeding and injured, lying on the grass, exhausted.
After all, the two women did not have the physique of immortal beasts like Ganyu. Feng Yi, with his Cang Xiong physique, managed to defeat them both, and he didn't even need to use his golden bear paws.
Half an hour later, the two women slowly woke up, their eyes regaining clarity.
"Feng Yi, Shenhe, I think I had a strange dream just now. I dreamed that I was with you and Feng Yi..."
Keqing pushed herself up with her hands, looked at Shenhe lying beside her, and said.
"Keqing, the dream I had is exactly the same as yours!"
Shenhe recalled her crazy actions in the dream and replied with a blush.
"Then, it seems it wasn't a dream, was it, Feng Yi?"
Keqing smelled a peculiar scent, looked down, and saw the conspicuous bloodstains on the grass.
"That's right! I know it's my fault. The thing is, it's like this..."
Feng Yi explained to Keqing and Shenhe exactly what happened after they ate the ice cream. He also felt responsible for this incident.
"Feng Yi, you don't need to apologize. It's fate, isn't it?"
Shenhe came to Feng Yi's side, hugged his arm, and smiled slightly.
Isn't this what she had always been looking forward to?
Since it happened so coincidentally, there was no need for her to initiate it. Shenhe was happy, and that was an understatement.
"Feng Yi, you'll be responsible for us, right?"
Keqing nodded, unusually agreeing with Shenhe's point, and asked, hugging Feng Yi's other arm.
"Of course, I'm not that kind of fickle and ungrateful man!"
Feng Yi stated that turning his back after pulling up his pants was something only scumbags would do.
He wasn't a scumbag, he just had many broken pieces of his heart, and each piece housed a different confidante.
He would arrange his time according to his energy, ensuring that none of his wives would be neglected.
The three lay side by side on the grass, feeling the gentle warm breeze caress their exposed skin, savoring this brief moment of peace.
Happy times always passed quickly. After their clothes were dry, Feng Yi helped Keqing and Shenhe change, and then took Keqing back to the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
"Feng Yi, the Lantern Rite is the day after tomorrow. How about we light the sky lanterns together then?"
Keqing stood at the entrance of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, embraced Feng Yi affectionately, and made the invitation for the Lantern Rite.
"If I'm not busy that day, I'll come find you!"
Feng Yi was slightly taken aback. He seemed to recall Ningguang also inviting him to light sky lanterns that day. He needed to plan his time carefully.
He must not have them clash.
"Okay! It's a deal. I'll wait for you then!"
Keqing gave Feng Yi a light kiss on the lips, then, with a blushing face, reluctantly said goodbye.
Only after Feng Yi's figure disappeared did Keqing turn and walk into the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
Feng Yi, who was heading towards the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, changed his path and went to Wanmin Restaurant.
It was close to evening now, and there were no customers left, but the Wanmin Restaurant was still brightly lit.
It was Xiangling, developing new dishes.
"Guoba! Breathe fire!"
Guoba: Judgment, rua~
"Feng Yi, you've come at the perfect time. Come and try this dish: A Gathering of Heroes Stew!"
Xiangling caught a glimpse of Feng Yi out of the corner of her eye. She was deeply touched that he had come so late to taste her dishes.
"I just finished exercising and I'm quite hungry!"
Feng Yi nodded and took the soup bowl that Xiangling handed him.
"Hiss~ This~"
The "Gathering of Heroes Stew" had an imposing name, but upon closer inspection, Feng Yi found only a few pieces of radish inside.
Feng Yi scooped up a spoonful of broth and took a small sip. His eyes lit up instantly.
This unassuming soup surprisingly tasted exceptionally good.
If Feng Yi were to describe it, it would be somewhat similar to the "Boiled Water Cabbage" from his previous life.
The essence was all in this clear and bright broth. It looked plain and unadorned, yet it showcased remarkable soup-making skill.
"The broth is rich and mellow, not oily or greasy, and deeply refreshing. It's a rare delicacy!"
Feng Yi couldn't help but give it a thumbs up.
