As night falls, the Jade Pavilion hangs in the sky above Liyue.
The stage was set up, and all the audience members were seated, waiting for the performance to begin.
The delegation from Inazuma naturally received the best seats. They were quite familiar with the girls from Liyue and the atmosphere was filled with laughter.
Lu Lin didn't stay with his girls; he went backstage.
Ningguang specially set aside the first and second floors of Qunyu Pavilion as a temporary backstage area for everyone to rest and prepare for the performance.
As VIP guests at the performance, Barbara and Yun Jin each had their own separate rooms as dressing rooms, which were right next to each other.
Lu Lin was in Barbara's lounge at that moment.
This teenage star from Mondstadt, after Lu Lin's help, has a much better mindset than before.
Although I'm inevitably a little nervous, I shouldn't make any mistakes.
Especially since Lu Lin was with her on the eve of her going on stage, she felt much more at ease. Lu Lin had provided Barbara with a lot of help these past few days, and the young girl's heart had secretly been tied to him.
"How about it, are you ready? The party is about to start, it'll be your turn to go on stage." Lu Lin's smile was warm and friendly.
Barbara, a popular star in Mondstadt, was the opening guest, and her performance was the first one.
"Yes! I'm ready, I'm very confident!" Barbara clenched her fist. "Brother Lu Lin, I have a small request."
"Hmm? What do you want? Just tell me!"
"After my performance, could Brother Lu Lin come to the dressing room to keep me company?" The girl bit her lip, her expression hesitant.
“Sure, of course no problem!” Lu Lin readily agreed.
"Then I'll go!" The girl's mood noticeably brightened.
"Go Barbara!"
Chapter 352 Barbara: I Like You
Barbara's performance was a great success.
Of course, the song she sang wasn't "Free Flying," mainly because she hadn't learned it yet.
When she first went on stage, the girl was a little nervous, but when she saw Lu Lin and her sister watching her with smiles from below, she immediately felt at ease.
When the song ended, the thunderous cheers from the audience made Barbara feel a great sense of accomplishment.
Her dream is to become a star, but not a star based on looks, but a star with real talent.
Although she worked hard to practice her singing while in Mondstadt, her fans actually liked her more because of her cute and sweet appearance, and she didn't even have much performance experience.
That's why she was nervous at the beginning of the performance. After all, this performance not only carried her dream of becoming a star, but also concerned the reputation of Mondstadt. Don't forget that she was representing the Knights of Favonius at the event.
Fortunately, she met Lu Lin, whose careful help greatly alleviated the girl's nervousness, allowing her to successfully complete the performance.
Moreover, the performance was very successful, and it is foreseeable that Barbara's reputation has been completely established, and she can now be considered a big star!

With Barbara successfully completing her performance, Lu Lin's task was also accomplished.
Moreover, the reward entry is perfect for Barbara.
As Barbara left the stage, the next program continued, and Lu Lin also disappeared from the audience.
When watching Barbara's performance, Lu Lin was standing with the ensemble leader. Suddenly, he disappeared. The ensemble leader was inevitably a little puzzled, but considering that he had so many girls, he might have gone with someone else, so she didn't think too much about it.
......
Qunyu Pavilion, Barbara's lounge.
When Barbara returned, Lu Lin had already come back first, bringing a small cream cake with him.
"In my hometown, there's a custom of eating cake to celebrate happy occasions. This cake is one I made for you myself, would you like to try it?"
The cake was indeed made by Lu Lin himself in the afternoon. It was decorated with fresh raspberries on top of the sweet cream, and it looked delicious.
"Thank you, Brother Lu Lin!" Barbara's eyes lit up immediately.
Most girls find it hard to resist sweets, especially since this was a cake made by Lu Lin himself. Barbara was instantly enveloped in an overwhelming sense of happiness.
"Make a wish before eating the cake! Come on, make a wish!"
Lu Lin helped her light the candles. The girl put her hands together, her face serene, and silently made a wish in her heart.
"Whew!" After making her wish, Barbara blew out the candle with her little pout.
"Can you tell me what you wished for?" The girl's pouting face was so cute that Lu Lin couldn't help but reach out and pinch it.
"Hmm~ Will it not work if I tell you?" Barbara asked cautiously.
"Haha, let's not talk about that now, let's eat cake!"
"Okay, I'll cut it!"
The cake wasn't big, but the girl's fair hands skillfully divided it into several pieces, and she handed one to Lu Lin.
"Thank you~" Lu Lin took the cake, watched Barbara take the first bite, and asked, "How is it? Is it good?"
The wonderful sensation on her taste buds made the girl's expression brighten: "Delicious, so delicious!"
Lu Lin has the idiom "skillful and clever," so his culinary skills are undoubtedly excellent, and the taste of his cakes is indeed impeccable.
But another reason why Barbara liked it so much was because it was made by Lu Lin himself.
"Hehe, if it's delicious, eat more!"
"Mmm-hmm." The girl nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
After taking a few bites of cake, Barbara looked up at Lu Lin, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping herself.
"What's wrong?" Lu Lin patted her head.
"Brother Lu Lin, I have a question..." the girl murmured.
"You said."
"Are you and your sister together?"
Since the troupe leader lost the bet last time, she no longer deliberately concealed her close relationship with Lu Lin. Just now, when they were watching the performance from the audience, the two were even holding hands.
So it's not surprising that Barbara guessed it. Unlike Claire, she understands matters between men and women and has longed for what love looks like.
"Yes," Lu Lin readily agreed.
Upon hearing his answer, the girl's eyes dimmed for a moment, but then brightened again.
Her tone was a mix of nervousness, shyness, and determination: "Brother Lu Lin, I...I like you! I want to be with you too."
The girl's sudden confession was quite unexpected for Lu Lin.
Given her shy nature, it's truly remarkable that she mustered the courage to say such a thing.
Barbara, having mustered the courage to say those words, blushed crimson, but still forced herself to suppress her embarrassment as she gazed at Lu Lin's face.
Although she knew that he and her sister were already together, Barbara couldn't help but feel affection for Lu Lin.
This tall and handsome man saved her and her sister's lives. He is gentle and considerate, helping her overcome her nervousness and anxiety. He is also incredibly talented, with unique insights into music and performance. How could anyone not be captivated by him?
Although my sister is with him, but...
But he has so many girls, one more wouldn't make much difference, right?
To be honest, if Barbara hadn't seen so many beautiful women at the Jade Pavilion in Chengehu, she definitely wouldn't have had the courage to express her feelings to Lu Lin.
Because she wouldn't compete with her older sister, she would only silently hide her feelings.
But what she saw and heard in the Dust Song Pot broadened her horizons greatly. She realized that so many beautiful women could all like the same person and live together harmoniously!
It was precisely because of this change in her worldview that Barbara had the courage to express her feelings to Lu Lin.
A girl's blush speaks louder than any words.
Barbara's rosy cheeks perfectly illustrated this statement.
Lu Lin didn't answer her question directly. Instead, he suddenly leaned forward and licked the cream off the corner of her mouth with the tip of his tongue.
This intimate gesture was like a pebble thrown into the already turbulent lake of the young girl's heart, instantly causing a huge uproar.
"Barbara is so pretty and cute, I like her too!" Lu Lin's warm smile was like a spring breeze, dispelling the girl's trepidation and shyness.
Upon receiving Lu Lin's affirmative answer, the girl's heart was instantly filled with immense happiness.
It is one of the luckiest things in the world for the person I like to like me back.
Excitedly, she reached out and hugged Lu Lin's neck, offering her sweet lips.
In an instant, a sweet and soft touch enveloped Lu Lin!
Chapter 353 Barbara's Clumsy Cuteness
The girl's kiss was clumsy but passionate. She hugged Lu Lin's neck tightly and twisted gently, like a playful little fish.
Lu Lin turned around and hugged Barbara's slender body, carrying her to the sofa in the room.
The girl pressed herself against Lu Lin's chest, letting him pry open her teeth, her soft, fragrant tongue responding to his tenderness.
"Mmm~!" Barbara's voice was sweet and soft, and when she hummed, it was as alluring as a kitten.
As Lu Lin continued kissing her, his hands became restless. He slid his hand down the girl's neckline and slipped it inside her clothes.
"Eek~! Brother Lu Lin!" Barbara couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation.
Barbara looked like a slender and delicate girl, but her bust size was not small, barely reaching C-cup.
This was a place where the young girl Barbara had never been touched before. Even with a piece of clothing covering her, Barbara felt an unprecedented sense of shame, and her pretty face flushed a lovely pink.
Lu Lin's hands kept moving, and the girl bit her lip and gently inhaled. For Barbara, who had never experienced this before, the feeling was still too stimulating.
After enjoying the girl's softness for a while, Lu Lin was no longer satisfied. He reached out with his other hand to Barbara's waist and gently tugged, loosening the corset belt.
"No... Brother Lu Lin!" The girl's dazed eyes suddenly regained a glimmer of clarity. "Not here, someone... someone will see us!"
The performances outside continued, and staff members came and went from time to time. Although Barbara used this place alone, she never knew if someone would come looking for her.
"Don't worry, no one will bother us." Lu Lin gently reassured the nervous girl. "My divine sense is monitoring the outside. If anyone comes, we can retreat into the Dust Song Pot at any time."
"Then...then why not just go to Chenge Pot?" the girl murmured.
"Hehe, you don't understand, do you? Don't you think it's more exciting here?" Lu Lin pinched Barbara's cute little face with a mischievous grin.
"This is right next to the stage where you just performed. The audience who cheered and applauded for you are still watching the show. But what is our beloved superstar doing?"
"Ugh... How embarrassing!" After Lu Lin said that, Barbara's pretty face instantly turned from pink to bright red, and she felt an indescribable restlessness.
She couldn't help but picture the scene from the audience during the performance, and the more she thought about it, the more agitated she became!
Looking at her charming and adorable appearance, Lu Lin couldn't help but smile and continued the action he hadn't finished earlier.
This time, Barbara did not stop him.
Lu Lin lifted her clothes to the left and right, just like opening a window on a spring morning. As the window frame parted to the side, a beautiful spring scene would be revealed.
Outside the window were two snow-white mountains, shrouded in a layer of white mist. Lu Lin's hand reached behind her—
With a soft click, the clouds covering the snow-capped mountain were pulled down, allowing Lu Lin to enjoy the magnificent scenery!
Pink flowers bloom on the two snow-white mountain peaks, and lively little rabbits hop around, creating a beautiful scene full of spring vitality.
Lu Lin caught the two little rabbits. This time, without the obstruction of clothing, he could fully enjoy their softness and smoothness.
"Brother Lu Lin~!"
The wonderful and joyful feeling she had never experienced before stirred the girl's heart. She felt shy, yet a strange hope arose from the bottom of her heart. In the end, she could only express her emotions in a soft murmur.
"What does Barbara think?"
"Very satisfied!"
"Does Barbara like it?"
