Mu Qingge finally woke up that night.
The first person she saw when she opened her eyes was Paimon.
Since Paimon was there, then...
Shifting her gaze to the right, Mu Qingge saw Lumine dozing off.
"Qingge, you're finally awake! That's great, I'll go call Baizhu right now!"
Paimon, seeing Mu Qingge open her eyes, excitedly floated out.
Hearing Paimon's voice, Lumine also woke up and came to the bedside: "Qingge, how do you feel?"
Mu Qingge carefully felt herself over, then smiled at Lumine: "I feel very good. It was Doctor Bai who saved me, right? He went through a lot of trouble."
"Oh, and I also need to thank you and Paimon. Thank you for taking care of me."
Paimon flew back at this moment, coming to Lumine's side: "Hehe, Qingge is our friend, so there's no need to be polite at all."
Lumine also echoed: "Paimon is right, we're friends!"
Baizhu came over and checked Mu Qingge's pulse, then nodded:
"You're recovering even faster than I expected. Your physical constitution is very good."
Mu Qingge saw Baizhu's pale face and sighed inwardly.
It seems it's better to come here less often next time.
"Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Bai."
Baizhu smiled: "Not at all. Healing the sick and saving lives is a doctor's duty, not to mention that Miss Mu was injured for the people of Liyue. Please don't say such polite words again."
After chatting with the three for a while, Lumine suddenly asked:
"Qingge, who exactly injured you?"
Paimon: "Yeah, yeah! We thought it was Childe before, but that guy here said Childe shouldn't be your match, and he had just fought Lumine at that time, so it was even more impossible for him to beat you."
"But... if it wasn't Childe, who could it be?"
Before Mu Qingge could answer, a voice suddenly came from outside the door:
"Was it that person?"
Paimon looked towards the source of the sound and exclaimed in surprise: "Oh, Yelan, and Zhongli, Ningguang, Keqing, Ganyu, Hu Tao... You all came together!"
With six more people arriving at once, the atmosphere in the room immediately livened up.
"This Director came with the consultant. On the way, we first met Ms. Ningguang and the others, and then Yelan. Everyone came to see Qingge, so we just came together."
Zhongli nodded slightly: "Indeed."
"Zhong, Mr. Zhongli..."
Mu Qingge wanted to force herself to get up. Lumine saw her intention and suddenly remembered that Zhongli had said that among the Qixing, only Mu Qingge knew his identity, and instantly knew what she wanted to do.
But how could she let her have her way?
"Rest well, don't move around," Zhongli said.
Hearing this, Mu Qingge indeed lay down quietly.
Everyone else didn't think much of it, but only Ningguang looked at Zhongli with some surprise, not knowing what she was thinking.
After a while, Mu Qingge finally answered Yelan's previous question:
"Yes, that masked person. She's very strong, and she seems to be Tartaglia's sister."
"I wanted to bring Tartaglia, who released Osial, back into custody. She appeared just as I was about to succeed..."
Yelan was silent for a moment, then suddenly apologized:
"I'm sorry. If I had been the one investigating her whereabouts, if I hadn't told you then..."
"How can you say that? This isn't just your task. As one of the Liyue Qixing, this is my duty."
Ningguang said: "Rest well these days and recover your health. All matters of the Kaiyang Star will temporarily be handled by Fengyan."
Keqing: "I'll also go help in my free time."
Ganyu: "And me, me too."
Mu Qingge was very touched: "Tha— thank you!"
Everyone around her was so, so kind.
After chatting for a while, everyone was asked to leave by Baizhu on the grounds that Mu Qingge still needed rest.
Before leaving, Mu Qingge requested of everyone: "Everyone, if possible, please keep this a secret from my parents and sister. I don't want them to worry."
Everyone nodded.
Keqing said: "Some people already know about this, but I will do my best."
"Thank you!"
"You're welcome."

Player's perspective.
After coming out of the Northland Bank, there had been no news of Mu Qingge in the main quest.
Guojia was anxious, but there was nothing she could do. She and the viewers in her live stream were all looking forward to knowing Mu Qingge's current situation.
But the damn game company just wouldn't release it!
Even after the final main quest ended, there was still no news of Mu Qingge. Guojia was so anxious.
The Liyue storyline was great, the main quest was superb, and the animation was also excellent, but...
She really wanted to know how Qingge was doing now.
After finishing the quest, Guojia didn't end her stream or do other quests. She clicked on the MHY official website, wanting to see what everyone was saying.
: "Personal feeling: The Liyue story is amazing, the animation is too strong, miHoYo is awesome!"
: "Addicted, brothers. After finishing the quest, I still haven't come back to my senses for a long time."
: "The modeling is so exquisite. I super love Mu Qingge's modeling, but miHoYo gave her too few shots. It would be best if they could add an update on Mu Qingge's current situation."
: "Upstairs, still too few? My wife's screen time is already very high, but I raise both hands and feet in agreement with your later suggestion!"
Guojia was browsing the page when it suddenly refreshed, and the official game account released a video.
"The official released a video, brothers. The streamer will watch it for everyone first."
The video opened with the familiar logo, followed by ultra-clear footage.
Yes, you heard that right, it was ultra-clear!
It was the kind of 3D masterpiece where every frame could be extracted to make a wallpaper.
"Holy crap, miHoYo is burning money, brothers, it's burning money!"
The video showed the battle between Mu Qingge and Anqi!
"What the heck, is it this high-definition?!"
"Don't you have this technology to make games? These effects, this animation, they're better than any anime movie, right?!"
: "Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap... "
: "This strong?"
: "Collect, collect. This is insane, brothers. Just for the game company's attitude, this game will definitely be a huge hit!"
: "Elemental power can be used like this?"
: "Ahhh, so cool, so cool, my wife is so cool!"
Everyone had seen the combat scenes in the game, as this game did have quite a few CGs.
But, such an incredibly exciting combat scene lasting over ten minutes was rare!
Let alone in games, even movies couldn't find animation of this quality, could they?
So, the reason they didn't release this segment before was because they were holding back for something even bigger here?!
Good! Very good! Bring more!
Both Guojia and the netizens in the live stream were mesmerized.
Ultimately, both sides of the battle were injured, Anqi left with Tartaglia, and Mu Qingge left alone in another direction.
Bang~
Guojia slammed the table.
"No, I haven't watched enough, again!"
The newly updated version today had very high popularity. Perhaps they never imagined how popular this game would become in a few months.
