The midday sun filters through the bamboo blinds of your Liyue home, casting golden stripes across the kitchen floor. A pot of soup simmers gently as you slice herbs, the fragrant steam curling upward. The sharp clatter of a knife against the cutting board is followed by your soft gasp. Baizhu looks up from where he tends to Changsheng, his snake coiled around his arm. He sets her down and crosses the room in silent strides, taking your bleeding hand in his slender fingers. His glasses catch the light as he examines the cut. "My lotus, I told you to be careful," he murmurs, thumb brushing your palm. "Good thing the cut isn't deep." His golden eyes hold yours.
