As the cool, transparent liquid slowly slid between Wendy's slightly opened lips, in an instant, a wonderful feeling that could not be described in words quickly spread throughout his body like an electric current.

Wendy felt a surge of heat deep in his throat, as if a fire was burning, causing him to cough lightly involuntarily.

When he slowly put down the wine glass, his eyes became blurred and intoxicated, and there seemed to be twinkling stars in the corners of his eyes. It was obvious that he was still immersed in the wonderful taste just now.

His emerald green eyes, like gemstones, stared deeply at the wine bottle on the table, revealing a hint of longing and attachment.

"Qiu Ling, this bottle of wine...can I finish it?" Wendy asked softly with a somewhat unsatisfied tone.

After receiving a positive answer, Wendy raised the bottle in her hand above her head without hesitation, then tilted her head back and drank all the remaining wine in one breath.

The people around witnessed this scene and all showed expressions of astonishment.

"So Lord Wind God loves drinking so much!"

someone exclaimed.

Qianyu's eyes widened and he blurted out: "Oh my god..."

As the banquet ended, the guests said goodbye to each other and gradually dispersed. The lively banquet hall became deserted, with only Qiu Ling and a few other knights cleaning up the mess.

Qianyu looked at Wendy, who was drunk and unconscious, lying on the dining table, and covered his forehead with helplessness. He sighed secretly and decided to find a way to wake Wendy up as soon as possible.

While no one else was paying attention, Qianyu quietly stretched out his hands, and a faint green light slowly emerged from his palms.

Then, the stream of light flew into Wendy's brows like a light butterfly. In an instant, Wendy's body trembled violently, and her eyes, which had been tightly closed, slowly opened.

"Hmm... I feel so dizzy... What's going on with me?" Wendy sat up shakily, rubbed her temples, and tried to recall what happened before, but there were only vague fragments of memory in her mind.

Seeing this, Qianyu sighed helplessly, and pointed to the corner. Wendy was stunned when she saw a dozen empty bottles neatly placed in the corner.

"Ah? This..." Wendy widened her eyes, looking at the scene in front of her in disbelief, with a look of astonishment on her face.

"Master Dionysus, you are awake~" Qianyu looked at Wendy with disdain and said jokingly

"Hehe, sorry~ I was just curious for a moment. I didn't expect there would be such delicious wine in the world!" Wendy smiled awkwardly, scratching her head while explaining to Qianyu.

As he spoke, he kept glancing at the empty wine bottles, as if he felt a little regretful for his excessive drinking.

"Hey~"

At midnight, everything was silent, and the moonlight sprinkled on the earth like water. Qianyu and Wendy came to the gate of the Knights together.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Qiu Ling!" Wendy waved goodbye to Qiu Ling with gratitude.

"No, no, Lord Barbatos, you are too kind. It is Qiu Ling's honor to invite you to my humble place." Qiu Ling responded with a smile. She knew very well that the God of Wind could honor her by attending the banquet she hosted, and this honor was enough to make her feel very proud.

At this time, Qianyu suddenly turned to Wendy and said, "By the way, Wendy, I plan to go to Liyue next."

"I left in such a hurry before that I'm afraid my friends in Liyue will be worried." Qianyu's eyes revealed a hint of worry.

Wendy nodded slightly to show her understanding, without seeming to hesitate too much.

"Are you willing to go with me?" Qianyu asked immediately.

Wendy raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a relaxed smile, "Hey, don't you know that I never refuse such an invitation?"

Hearing this, Qianyu also laughed. Indeed, now that the crisis in Mondstadt has been resolved, there is nothing to do here. It would be better to travel to other places and add some fresh and interesting things.

So, the two decided to embark on a journey to Liyue together. Perhaps there will be more unknown challenges waiting for them ahead, but for brave and fearless travelers, isn't this also a kind of fun?

"Okay, then follow me." Then Qianyu's body emanated an emerald green light, and then his figure turned into a stream of light and streaked towards the horizon.

"Qiu Ling, I'll leave Mond's affairs to you for the time being." Wendy turned around, looked at Qiu Ling with firm eyes, and said softly.

Qiu Ling nodded slightly to show that she understood. She knew the importance of this mission, but she took on this responsibility without hesitation.

Then, Qiu Ling stood quietly there, watching Qianyu and Wendy turn into two streams of light and leave, until their figures completely disappeared from the end of her sight.

Qiu Ling looked up at the sky. A bright moon was hanging high in the sky, casting a cool light.

In this vast starry sky, there is a star that is particularly eye-catching, as if it is looking at Qiu Ling. It is so unique among countless stars, constantly flashing a faint and warm light.

A breeze blew gently, lifting Qiu Ling's silky long hair. The hair danced in the wind, like a dancing fairy.

Qiu Ling's thoughts also drifted with the breeze, and she couldn't help but recall the voice that Dikarapian had left in the wind...

[I will silently witness your thriving growth amidst the gentle breeze...]

"Is it the wind elf, born from the fierce wind..." Qiu Ling murmured in a low voice, as if she was lost in some distant memories.

However, in an instant, Qiu Ling's thoughts were suddenly pulled back to reality. She suddenly realized something important.

Could it be that Qianyu is actually Lord Decarapian? This thought flashed through her mind like lightning, shocking her.

Her eyes once again looked in the direction where Qianyu and Wendy left, and an indescribable emotion was revealed in her eyes, which was both warm and full of affection.

"That's great. It turns out that you have always been by our side and never left..." Qiu Ling said softly, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, outlining a beautiful and relieved smile.

Although Qiu Ling didn't know why Lord Decarabian deliberately concealed his true identity, she believed that there must be some unknown reason. Perhaps it was to protect them, or out of other more far-reaching considerations.

In any case, Qiu Ling decided to keep the secret for him.

Well, Lord Diocletian must have his own reasons for doing this.

With a heart that was difficult to calm down, Qiu Ling silently tidied up everything around her, and then collapsed limply on the bed as if all the strength had been drained away.

Just relax your body like this... Qiu Ling thought to herself. Although she was now shouldering the heavy responsibility of defending Mondstadt, she was really exhausted at this moment.

"Well...you should take a good rest first, Qiu Ling." She whispered to herself, as if comforting an exhausted child.

“No matter what happens tomorrow, the sun will still rise and life must go on, right?” This sentence is not only said to oneself, but also a self-comfort from deep in the heart.
