Genshin Impact: My Villain System Isn't Working Properly

Ganyu walked down the street, looking dispirited.

She had meant to show her authority as a senior sister and properly advise her junior disciples.

But instead, she ran away... sob sob, what a failure...

Ganyu sighed.

They must think I'm a very strange senior sister, right?

At least her junior brother was almost of age. Otherwise, if this came to light, having to bail someone out of prison would bring shame to their entire sect.

"Really, why didn't Master properly teach them... Tonight, tonight I must properly educate my junior brother and sister!"

Ganyu complained, then gave herself encouragement.

Since Master wasn't reliable, it was up to her as the senior sister.

"What education? Ganyu, you look quite down."

Before Ganyu stood a purple-haired cat-eared girl.

Ganyu came back to her senses: "Ah, Keqing, good morning... It's nothing, just thinking about something."

"Is that so? If you're really not feeling well, you need to balance work and rest properly. After resting, you can work better."

Though she was a workaholic, Keqing was very considerate of her colleagues.

Work hard when energetic, rest well when feeling unwell.

After all, Keqing wasn't some vampire capitalist.

But Ganyu was also a competitive person, and there really wasn't anything wrong.

So Ganyu quickly said: "It's really nothing, just, family matters."

"Family matters?"

Keqing was curious.

Though not everyone knew Ganyu's identity, quite a few people did.

So, family matters should mean affairs between adepti, right?

Ganyu seemed to think of something and consulted Keqing: "Keqing, let me confirm again, Liyue's legal marriage age is 16, the age of majority, right?"

Keqing nodded: "Though I'm not in charge of criminal law, that's correct..."

Ganyu nodded: "I see, then it's fine. I need to go work now."

Saying this, she hurried to her office.

Keqing watched Ganyu's hurried departure, lost in thought.

Why would Ganyu suddenly ask this question?

Then Keqing suddenly realized.

Could it be that after being single for so many years, Ganyu was finally considering her own affairs?

Which lucky young talent had caught her eye?

Keqing couldn't help but be curious.

After all, Ganyu's figure, appearance, and personality were all top-tier choices, not to mention her family background. Truthfully, in all of Liyue Harbor, no one could compare to Ganyu's background.

She was a half-qilin half-human, and her master was a genuine adeptus who fought alongside Rex Lapis, making her Rex Lapis's junior.

However, Keqing recalled Ganyu's earlier question.

Could it be?!

Could Ganyu have fallen for a boy who had just turned sixteen or wasn't even sixteen yet?!

This- this this this, this would be criminal!

Keqing's pupils shook.

Could it be that because she had been busy with the Rite of Descension lately, she had missed some information?

Keqing thought for a moment. Today's work tasks weren't particularly urgent, so she could spare some time to look into recent intelligence.

The intelligence department was Ningguang's responsibility, so Keqing went directly to Yujing Terrace, where there was a dedicated path to the Jade Chamber.

Coincidentally, Ningguang had just finished her phase of work and was relaxing with tea.

The tea's fragrance refreshed her spirit.

"This year's new tea from Qingxing Manor?" Keqing sat down unceremoniously in front of Ningguang and asked.

Ningguang maintained her noble and elegant demeanor: "Yes, the best batch... I remember the Yuheng's portion was already delivered? How come you haven't tried it?"

Keqing frowned and said: "You know I don't have the leisure to slowly brew tea... If I were to brew it carelessly, it would waste the tea's value, so I sent it home."

"Baoxiao, prepare a cup of tea for the Yuheng, lest she say our hospitality is lacking."

Ningguang said.

Baoxiao hurried to comply.

Though they had some disagreements in work matters, they cooperated meticulously when needed.

Therefore, when Keqing asked for recent intelligence, Ningguang didn't hesitate and directly had someone bring over a stack of documents.

Keqing quickly browsed through them. To save time, she had long developed the ability to read ten lines at once without missing anything.

After finishing, Keqing said: "Those two adepti disciples who defeated the Stone Lawachurl have already arrived in Liyue Harbor?"

"It seems the Yuheng has truly been single-mindedly focused on preparing for the Rite of Descension, neglecting these matters."

Ningguang made a mild jab at Keqing, then said: "Yes, they're currently staying at Ganyu's residence. They're disciples of the Cloud Retainer, Ganyu's junior sister and brother."

Keqing seemed to understand something. That junior brother of Ganyu's, called Jiang Ning, looked just like a young boy.

Could it be that the person Ganyu liked was her junior brother?

Keqing instinctively felt that Ganyu was about to break the law - he was clearly underage.

She was even considering how to handle public relations for Yuehai Pavilion if Ganyu really went to prison, at least to prevent outsiders from thinking Liyue wasn't a trade center but rather an industrial base.

However, if it was this young man...

Jiang Ning's face appeared in Keqing's mind.

It seemed somewhat understandable why Ganyu would...

Strangely, Keqing had this thought, then violently rejected it.

What was she thinking?! As the Yuheng of the Liyue Qixing, how could she think such law-breaking matters were normal?

"What's wrong? Is there a problem with these two?" Ningguang keenly noticed Keqing's strange expression.

Keqing's expression was complicated: "I don't know how to say this... It's like this, Ganyu..."

Keqing explained her suspicions.

Ningguang went from initially indifferent, to thoughtful, to finally gossipy.

Even people of their status had gossip-loving hearts, especially when the subjects were their steadfast secretary and her fellow disciples.

"How interesting." Ningguang covered her mouth and laughed lightly.

"Mm, I think Ganyu shouldn't be in such a hurry. Just wait a few years." Keqing said.

"Don't worry, Ganyu isn't someone who doesn't know her limits." Ningguang said, "However, I'm quite curious about this young man who could capture the heart of an adeptus like Ganyu."

"Don't upset them." Keqing warned.

"Rest assured, I know what I'm doing."

A gleam flashed in Ningguang's eyes, her thoughts unknown.
