Keqing ate the little dumplings Ganyu had given her in confusion as she followed behind her. She had noticed that this Ganyu was acting a little strange.
"Ganyu, you..."
Just as Keqing could no longer resist asking what was going on, Ganyu suddenly turned to face her. Her expression was incredibly serious. "Keqing, yesterday... thank you! I haven't felt that relaxed in a long time. And the Qingxin was delicious."
"Yesterday?"
Wasn't that the other me? Hadn't she been working overtime the whole time? Why would Ganyu say that? Could it be...
As Keqing pondered, she suddenly felt her small hand... being clasped by another soft little hand. Her body jolted, and she lowered her head with wide eyes. It was Ganyu's hand.
Ganyu had taken the initiative to hold her hand...
Keqing instinctively tried to pull away, but Ganyu instead tugged her into a light run toward somewhere. "Come with me!"
"W-What?"
"Um... you might not believe this, but actually, you've got the wrong person..."
As Ganyu pulled her along at a jog, Keqing could not help speaking up. At the same time, she could not help complaining inwardly about that other version of herself. What exactly did she do with Ganyu?!
Why had this ice qilin, unchanged for millennia, suddenly started treating her so strangely?
"..."
Ganyu tilted her head and glanced at Keqing, but did not take it to heart. She simply led her onward.
They continued until they had left the night market and reached a spot by the sea...
"We're here!"
Ganyu stopped at an excellent vantage point, then spoke gently as she looked ahead with anticipation in her eyes.
"Ganyu, there may have been some misunderstanding about yesterday..."
Keqing looked around in confusion, but found nothing. The area was pitch-black, without even a lantern.
