Chapter Text
The Geo family is known for their prestige and elegance of their members. Entering into their estate feels like having the privilege of living in a fancy life.
The family consists of the renown Miss Ningguang–runner of Seven Stars Corp and the owner of the Floating Jade Chamber. The wisdomous Mister Zhongli–Teyvat’s most intellectual man and also titled as ‘Walking Encyclopedia’ by the Wangsheng Director, Hu Tao. The elegant Yun Jin–well known opera actress and a fashionable supermodel. The genius Albedo–a chemistry prodigy who also excelled in arts. The spiritful Gorou-Teyvat academy’s best soccer player and also a good tactician too. And the young diligent Noelle-surprisingly the strongest among the all and friendly as well. These may sound exaggerated but no one object. Although, there are rumors of a certain someone from the Geo fam that’s not introduced to the public.
But the Geo family is just a humble family. The typical common family.
“So, how’s your relationship with Sucrose?”
Albedo chokes on his soup when Noelle all of a sudden asks. Where did she know…?
“I-I was helping Kaeya out and then he spilt everything to me!” She immediately spills the source. Albedo puts on a grumpy-but-not-so-surprised face. Guess he will be ignoring Kaeya for a week or two.
“Oh, we’re hiding secrets now~” Yun Jin teases.
“I can’t believe Albedo has a girlfriend before I do!?” The huge, red horn oni slams the table.
“I think it’s understandable, Uncle Itto” Gorou continues to eat his bowl.
“Why did you never introduce her?” Now Zhongli’s attention is drawn from his newspaper.
“I-uh…”
“Well, maybe you should bring her to the Geo household?” Ningguang seems delighted hearing about it.
“Oh, Mom, I don’t think… I-”
“No, buts. I would like to see her.” Ningguang demands and the family continues to eat.
Albedo proceeds to continue his meal unenthusiastically. His whole time trying to not bring up about Sucrose to the family has gone in vain. He’s just a little shy, that’s all. People thought that he has no love interest and probably studies all day.
But if you peek at his chats with his friends, especially Kaeya and Mona, he could ramble about Sucrose every hour. No one in the family expects the lonesome their introverted Albedo could be in a relationship.
And everyone, except Noelle, who has known Sucrose, are eager to see what she looks like tomorrow.

Sucrose frantically panics and starts to feel nervous. They have almost arrived at the Geo family estate and she isn’t ready. She’s nervous, shaking, heart beating rapidly, butterflies fluttering on her stomach. What if she messes up or gives a bad impression towards them.
A soft touch calms her shoulders.
“Don’t worry. They are actually very friendly,” Albedo smiles, calming her down. “Whatever happens, I will always love you.” He caresses her cheeks and smiles. All the nervousness starts to dissipate. Sucrose lifts her head with confidence. Just be herself.
As Albedo’s hand reaches the door knob…
WELCOME TO OUR GEO HOUSEHOLD *Beatboxes*
The pair is greeted with the red horned-Oni and a pup-eared boy holding a they-have-tried-their-best (a.k.a. messy) handmade welcome banner.
Sucrose feels as if her heart has popped out, her legs trembling. Albedo quickly supports her back and gives his uncle and lil bro a deadpan expression.

“I’m sorry for my brother and my youngest son's behavior,” Ningguang serves Sucrose some tea to calm her down. Sucrose thanks Ningguang and gently sips her tea.
“We’ll be having lunch soon. Glad you could join,” Noelle smiles while preparing the platters. Sucrose stands up to offer help but Ningguang shakes her hand.
“You, sweetie, just sit there and wait for us. You’re our guest after all. Albedo, call the others.”
Sucrose sits on the dining table, watching everyone preparing lunch and so on. She isn’t sure if this is polite but since Ningguang insisted. Or probably she feels her body paralyzed because of how amazed she is to see Ningguang in person. No words could describe.
