Chapter 46

"Master Yuheng, Yelan is back."

The secretary's words only made Keqing pause, and then brought the cooked pastry out of the pot.

Silently watching this young lady's cautious movements, Ying'er's expression was very complicated.

This is glass cake made by Keqing himself, but it doesn't have the fragrance of ordinary desserts, and the air is filled with bitterness.

Ordinary glazed cakes are processed with glazed lilies and various cooking techniques, and the taste is soft and sweet with a hint of sweetness.

Ying'er still remembers the glass cake that this eldest lady made for the first time, and she used the "glass" in the glass cake as a glass bag.

Not only Ying'er, but Keqing herself could not bear the bitter and sour taste, and even said that she would never make this kind of thing again.

Ying'er originally thought that the lady who always spoke her mind would not let this kind of pastry that was not pastry reappear in the world.

But the next day, Keqing excitedly made a few more copies.

Ying'er could see Keqing's expression clearly at the beginning, she looked completely happy to be recognized by her sweetheart.

Of course Ying'er knew who her so-called sweetheart was.

Although the two of them didn't seem to understand their own intentions, Ying'er could feel that one day the lovers would finally get married.

Who would have thought...

Miss Keqing, who used to be happily making glaze cakes, has now become Master Yuheng, who is holding her breath and waiting for the cakes to come out of the oven. Ying'er always chokes for breath.

The two people who were optimistic at the beginning were suddenly separated by yin and yang, and Ying'er was depressed for a few days.

And today Keqing was in a trance, smiling from time to time, and shed tears from time to time.

It seems... more serious.

"Miss Keqing."

Ying'er still couldn't help but said, "Are you okay?"

"what?"

Ke Qing turned her head, and suddenly felt a burning pain in her fingers.

Subconsciously let go of his fingers, and the next second, he wanted to catch the falling pastry as if he had thought of something.

The panicked movements were destined to be useless, and the pastry and the plate fell back into the pot.

Fortunately, the height of the fall was not high, and the porcelain plate containing the pastry was not broken.

Keqing heaved a sigh of relief, and then put the porcelain plate and glazed cake on it into the food box.

It wasn't until the snacks were packed that Keqing remembered Ying'er's previous words.

"nothing."

Keqing smiled at Ying'er: "Don't worry, Miss Ying'er."

The smile did not have the heavy feeling of being pressed by a stone before, but there was more anxiety that was about to overflow from the face.

Of course Ying'er noticed the change in Keqing.

Although she didn't know whether this change was good or bad, Ying'er didn't have the position to ask Keqing.

At most...probing around the edges.

"The secretary has been here several times. It seems that there is a new job. Why don't Keqing arrange it first?"

"For work or something, just do it later."

Do it later...wait!

Is this really what Miss Keqing can say?

Ying'er looked at Keqing suspiciously, but saw Keqing staring at the food box intently, and slowly lifted it up.

"Things always have priorities. Do the important things first and then move on."

As he spoke, he walked out of Chunxiang Kiln and glanced at the secretary standing beside him.

"Yelan, come back as soon as she comes back. Don't tell me again."

Ke Qing paused, and the usual routine tone suddenly evaded: "I...I still have some personal matters to deal with."

"If you really can't wait for some things, you can help me deal with them first."

Not only Ying'er, but even the secretary raised his head in surprise.

She couldn't have imagined that Master Yuheng, who had always been a witness, would say such a thing.

Perhaps... Mr. Yuheng's "personal" matter is more important.

Convincing himself like this in his mind, the secretary looked up again, only to find that Ke Qing had disappeared...

Passing through the streets with people coming and going, the people around greeted Keqing from time to time.

After all, no one in Liyue knew this resolute Lord Yu Heng.

To those who said hello, Ke Qing nodded and responded as usual.

Keqing had always done this in the past, but today she felt a little irritated for no reason, and her pace was much faster.

Ke Qing remembered that Mu Xian said that glazed cakes that have cooled down are not as delicious as when they were freshly baked.

Squeezed out from the crowd, the deserted hall was incompatible with the bustle behind Keqing.

The scene in front of her made Ke Qing feel very strange. Even though she grew up in Liyue Port, Ke Qing had never been here a few times.

But the responsibility of being a Seven Star also made Keqing know that this was the Hall of Rebirth.

Looking at the ferryman standing in front of the steps, Ke Qing's heart became more and more disturbed.

She still remembered the pair of eyes that were completely different from what she remembered when she recognized Mu Xian yesterday.

Mu Xian has changed, he is no longer what Keqing remembered.

Keqing was a little scared, afraid that the Mu Xian in her memory would never come back.

Keqing also knew that Mu Xian's change must have something to do with her.

Disappointment appeared in Keqing's eyes, but was quickly covered up by Keqing.

Gathering up her courage, Ke Qing walked up to the ferryman.

"Excuse me, Hu Mu..."

"Huh? Is it Keqing?"

The voice that appeared suddenly interrupted Keqing's words.

The door of the Hall of Rebirth was opened a crack, and the girl's upper body protruded out of the crack.

"Why did you suddenly come to be our guest?"

Hu Tao said with a smile to Ke Qing: "Rare customers, rare customers, come in and have a seat."

Ke Qing looked at the girl in front of her, and could see that the smile on Hu Tao's face showed some emotion.

It's like being happy, but there's also a bit of sadness in the happiness.

Like the walnut in Keqing's impression, there are always some contradictions that should not exist at the same time.

Although he hadn't been to the Pastoral Hall a few times, Keqing often saw the hall master in the streets and alleys.

At that time, she also had a smile on her face, and she looked friendly and enthusiastic to everyone, but her eyes revealed indifference and alienation towards others.

As if someone died in front of her, she could still keep a smile on her face.

Once someone is used to seeing life and death, it will be difficult to touch this person's emotions.

And after Mu Xian fell into the sea five years ago, those eyes were not only indifferent and distant, but also filled with disgust and rejection.

It was at that time that the Hall of Rebirth broke away from the control of Liyue Qixing, and the hall master also began to go around the streets to promote his "business".

"Then thank you Hall Master Hu."

Looking away from Hu Tao, Ke Qing remembered her purpose of coming here: "Excuse me, is Hu Muxuan here?"

It was an ordinary question, but after asking this question, Ke Qing felt that Hu Tao's smile suddenly became a little creepy.

Breaking away from this inexplicable feeling, Keqing looked at Hu Tao again, the girl's smile was still the same enthusiasm as before.

"You mean little wood?"

"Little Wood is not in the Pastoral Hall right now."

"As the exclusive employee of the hall master, Xiao Mumu... hey... what are you doing!"

Before he finished speaking, a big hand stuffed the walnut back behind the door.

"Miss Keqing."

The figure of Hu Nuo disappeared, replaced by Zhong Li who stuffed Hu Nuo back.

"For some reason, Hu Muxuan went to Dao's wife, maybe he won't come back these days."

"Dao Wife? How could Mu Xian go to Dao Wife?!"

The sudden voice startled Keqing herself, and then she came back to her senses: "Sorry, I was rude earlier."

"It's okay."

As he spoke, Zhongli looked at the purple figure under the steps.

The two hands that were holding the food box slowly dropped, and even the tone of voice dropped a lot.

"Yuehai Pavilion still has some work that I need to deal with, so I won't stay any longer."

Keqing suddenly felt a little confused in her heart, and didn't even want to say more polite words.

He turned around and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Zhongli.

"Miss Keqing."

Zhong Li walked up to Ke Qing, hesitated again and again, and finally said: "Since we are going to Yuehai Pavilion, please ask Miss Ke Qing to help bring some words to the other Seven Stars."

"The Rebirth Hall will be temporarily closed."
