Honkai Impact: You still owe me a dance

That night, Bai Yan once again sat at the door of the coffee shop, drinking liquor alone.

It's just that this time there was no Vita coming, but instead there was someone who came back that Bai Yan didn't expect at all.

"Is this the Finale Cafe? It looks like the environment is pretty good."

The person who came here was none other than Bronya.

"Hello, is this the Finale Cafe? What time will it open tomorrow?"

When Bronya saw Bai Yan, she was a little curious as to why someone was sitting here drinking at this time.

"Open at nine o'clock and close at five o'clock in the afternoon."

Bai Yan was a little surprised by Bronya appearing here. Although he could expect that 'Xie'er' would tell others, he never expected that Bronya would come over in the middle of the night.

"Is the cake you brought back today delicious?"

"It's pretty good."

Bronya also answered subconsciously, but when she reacted, she glanced at Bai Yan strangely.

"How do you know I ate the cake here today?"

Regarding Bronya's words, Bai Yan just smiled helplessly.

"What's the point? We have always had old customers in our store. For so long, only the lady this afternoon is a new customer. And she will come here so late in the middle of the night. People who can come here , there are only some new potential customers who tried the cakes she brought back in the afternoon."

After pouring myself another glass of wine, I was done.

"At least I'm quite confident in our cakes, don't you think so? Miss Bronya."

"you know me?"

At this time, Bronya, who was wearing a racing suit, also walked up to Bai Yan.

"How could I not recognize him? He is currently the chief game designer of the largest game company in the world. With his trademark long gray hair and proud figure, how could I not recognize him?

Want something to drink? I just think of it as preparing some benefits in advance for the big boss who is coming tomorrow. "

After Bai Yan closed the wine bottle and put it away, he opened the door of the coffee shop and invited Bronya.

"Then I'd rather be respectful than obey. But I have a friend who will be arriving soon. Do you mind inviting one more person?"

Naturally, Bronya would not refuse the other party's invitation, and naturally followed Bai Yan's arrival.

"of course."

After Bai Yan opened the door, he just turned on the spotlight on the bar.

While Bai Yan was getting ready, Bronya also took Xier into the coffee shop.

"Let's get to know Bronya again, the owner of Principle Studio and the chief designer of the game."

Bronya stretched out her hand towards Bai Yan, and Bai Yan also shook Bronya's hand politely and responded.

"Bai Yan, just an unknown pastry chef who runs a coffee shop."

"Xie'er, just a teacher."

Xi'er also shook Bai Yan's hand and sat on the bar with Bronya.

"Mr. Bai Yan, is it really appropriate for us to disturb you so late?"

"Of course it's no problem. After all, I won't go to bed so early. Besides, one is the boss of the best game company, and the other is an idol girl who is not much but has huge influence. Of course I welcome her."

Bai Yan handed the menu to the two of them, but Xier was a little surprised.

"Idols and stuff...it's been a long time coming..."

Being teased like this by Bai Yan, Xier subconsciously felt a little shy for some reason.

As for the fact that Seele is an idol, it was at a concert held by Shigure Kirara a few years ago that Seele appeared as an idol and aroused world-class heated discussions as soon as she appeared.

"But it seems that Boss Bai's job is quite easy. He even knows these things. What is this Cyan Sea Special?"

When Bronya saw this cup of cyan sea special blend, she was also attracted by the picture above.

"Cyan Sea Special... This is a specially prepared drink that I made after finding inspiration at the beach. The taste is more inclusive and not very exciting.

To quote the comments from customers who have ordered this special blend in my store for a long time, every sip will make you feel like you are immersed in the sea, which is addictive and intoxicating. "

"Well, Xi'er, let's have two cups of this, shall we?"

"Well, no problem. Then just listen to sister Bronya."

Now that Bronya and Xi'er had asked for Cunhai's special blend, Bai Yan immediately prepared two cups in special packaging cups and placed them in front of them.

As for why Bronya wanted this Cyan Hai special blend, Bai Yan had already guessed it.

After all, there are two butterflies, one black and one white, and a duck-shaped straw on the cup made by Cun Hai.

It would be a little strange if Bronya wasn't attracted to it.

After taking the two cups, Bronya and Xier picked up the cups and took a sip almost at the same time.

When you first enter the mouth, there is a cool mint and sea salt smell, like the sea breeze blowing through.

After entering the throat, it has a very comfortable throat moistening feeling.

Just as Bai Yan said before, the subsequent feeling is indeed the feeling of sinking into the sea.

But it is not a lonely and quiet deep sea, but an extremely gorgeous ocean.

After thinking about it, Bronya also took a long breath.

"It seems Alicia is right, the food you made tastes really good. The money spent in the afternoon was well worth it."

Regarding Bronya's evaluation, Bai Yan also showed a satisfied smile.

“Being recognized by my customers is the greatest compliment to me.”

Compared to when Bronya had come to her senses, Xi'er looked at Bai Yan strangely after finishing her drink.

"I'm a little curious. I don't know if I should ask Miss Xi'er."

"Ah? That's okay. Is there any problem?"

"The young lady who came in the afternoon should be Miss Xier's elder sister or younger sister. After all, she looks so similar."

When asked by Bai Yan, Xi'er didn't know how to answer.

When asked by Bai Yan, Xi'er didn't know how to answer.

It's not that there is no reason to answer. After all, in so many years, countless people have asked about the relationship between the two, so Xi'er and 'Xier' have long formed a very unified relationship. way of answering.

"Actually, her name is Xi'er. We are not sisters, but we are closer than sisters."

Xi'er didn't know why, but she wanted to tell Bai Yan that she and "Xie'er" were one and the same, but this intuition never went away.

And subconsciously, she took another sip of the Cyan Sea special blend in front of her.

“Corrupt binary codes infecting my mind

perform invocation with numbing freeze.

Querying for a variable and seizing the time

to repile and trigger my destiny..."

At this time, Bronya's cell phone ringtone suddenly rang, and it was the call from Raiden Meiyi.

When Bronya went out to listen to the phone, Bai Yan suddenly felt that Xi'er's eyes looked at him differently. It was different from the way she first saw the stranger. At this time, she looked very happy.

After Bronya came back, Bronya whispered a few words in Xi'er's ear, and then picked up her cup of Cyan Sea Special.

"Boss Bai, I have something to do at home, so I'll leave first. How much does this cup cost? I'll pay for it."

"No, I told you to treat me. Besides, our store's system is shut down now, so it's troublesome to calculate the accounts. When you come tomorrow, just buy two more cakes."

And now that Bai Yan has said this, Bronya can't continue talking.

"Then Xi'er, I'll go back first, and you'll come back early. Boss, I'll see you tomorrow."

After Bronya said hello to Xi'er and Bai Yan, she hurriedly left the cafe on her motorcycle.

And looking at Bronya's leaving figure, Bai Yan also guessed that she probably rushed back because something happened to Kiana or others, and it should be fine.

It's just that Xi'er didn't leave here, which was a bit beyond her expectation.

"Don't look any further. Sister Bronya rushed back because Kiana broke the game console in the villa. If Brother Bai Yan is really worried about them, why don't you go and see them yourself?"

"It's not necessary..."

When Bai Yan subconsciously answered Xi'er's words, some looked blankly in her direction.

Although Xi'er still had a smile on her face, Bai Yan could see the tears shining in the girl's eyes.

Seeing her like this, Bai Yan understood what was going on.

He also took off his apron and walked out from behind the bar.

As soon as he came out, Xi'er had already jumped into Bai Yan's arms.

"Brother Bai Yan! I finally know why I always have a strange feeling. It turns out that it's because your existence, Brother Bai Yan, has disappeared in the past eight years."

Xi'er leaned in Bai Yan's arms. In fact, the moment she remembered Bai Yan's arrival, all the events of the past eight years were connected to her.

Bai Yan didn't say much, just patted Xi'er's back gently and pulled her to the sofa aside.

He didn't say anything else, just listened quietly to Xi'er's story about her experiences in the past few years.

It also included the countless investigations she conducted after hearing from Vita that she had a brother.

"Then now, when I drank the Cunhai special blend you gave me, Brother Bai Yan, I suddenly had a thought in my mind, how great it would be if I had known you eight years ago.

It was at the moment when this idea appeared that some memories suddenly emerged in my mind, and those memories were the memories of you taking me to live with me when I was a child, and the memories of us going to the moon together, but I don’t know why. After the final battle, I forgot all about it! "

Bai Yan just let Xi'er lean on his shoulder. After Xi'er's explanation, he actually understood why Xi'er thought of her at this time.

In the final analysis, it was because Vita accidentally told Xi'er about Bai Yan's incident and gave her a hint. In addition, Xi'er was more affected by the quantum sea. As long as she thought about it a little, Through it, the power of the Herrscher of Death and Life will help her sort out all the news immediately.

"Actually, this matter is also my fault..."

Bai Yan also talked about his original preparations, but it was only because of the Quantum Sea that Xi'er thought of him.

"What about Sister Ai Li? Brother Bai Yan, didn't you and Sister Ai Li become boyfriend and girlfriend? How about we go back together?"

"No, it doesn't matter. Alicia probably won't remember what happened back then. The only people who can recall it are probably you, Xi'er, and Gracie, the three people who were affected by the Quantum Sea."

Bai Yan touched Xi'er's head and told her not to worry about this matter.

"Gratio? Has she also been affected by the Quantum Sea?"

"Well, when the Ark crashed that year, it was Suo Chu from the Quantum Sea who shot it down. As for Suo's situation, Vita must have told you about it. And after Suo took action, the Cocoon of the End noticed it. She, so I beat her up a little bit. As for the past few years, it is probably because she is still recovering."

"Is that so... But Brother Bai Yan, are you really not going to go with me to meet Sister Aili and the others?"

Xi'er still hopes that Bai Yan can go and meet Alicia and the others. Maybe there is hope?

"No need. For me, this matter is a thing of the past. If I really wanted to go, I would have gone when I came back a year ago, but now, there is no need for it."

Bai Yan still rejected Xi'er, but he still persisted, and Xi'er had no choice.
