Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

Front row reminder, the content of the previous chapter was posted incorrectly. In the last paragraph, Ye Zhi's guess about Chang Ming's identity should be the Thunder Dragon King, not the Water God.

(Whispering: Why would I roll back after I changed it...)

----

After seeing off Ying and Paimon, Chang Ming gently closed the door of the living room, then turned to look at Funina.

Almost the moment he turned around, the standard polite smile on his face was instantly replaced by a serious expression.

His sea-blue eyes looked quietly at Funina in front of him, as if he had something to say but didn't know where to start.

Fu Nina felt a little uneasy when being stared at by Chang Ming, and asked stutteringly:

"Chang, Chang Ming...? What's wrong with you?"

Looking at the somewhat nervous Funina, Chang Ming's breathing suddenly stagnated. The words he was about to say lingered and condensed on his lips, finally turning into a sigh.

"Ah... It's nothing, Funina. I just hope that next time you go somewhere other than Fontaine... remember to inform me in advance."

"Compared to my injury, your safety is more important to the entire Fontaine."

"In this era that has begun to become somewhat chaotic, only the existence of gods can bring people a sense of stability."

"Of course, only you can solve that prophecy. If you make any mistakes at this critical moment, I'm afraid..."

Chang Ming shook his head gently and did not continue speaking. He believed that Funina could understand what he meant.

And Funina nodded obediently, said "hmm" in a somewhat depressed tone, and then fell into a semi-autistic state.

Looking at Funina who was feeling a little depressed, Chang Ming sighed again and put his hand in front of the girl.

"?"

Funina raised her head with some confusion. She looked at Chang Ming's hand, then looked at Chang Ming again, as if she didn't know what he wanted to say.

"Let's go, my Lord God, it's time for afternoon tea."

......

After enjoying one of the few afternoon tea times, Chang Ming's life returned to normal.

His life was just like usual: getting up early, marking documents, taking care of the kitten for lunch, having afternoon tea with Funina, and then continuing to mark documents and rest.

But Chang Ming himself knew very well that such a life...could not last too long.

No matter whether it is the upcoming main storyline or the current event storyline... these two points will not let him go easily.

Therefore, he only regarded the peaceful life of the past five days as the calm before the storm. What he would face next... would definitely be an even more violent storm.

On the morning of the sixth day, Chang Ming waited as usual for Sedna to bring him the documents he needed to review today.

However...Sedna not only brought the papers she needed to grade today, but also a box that was three times as tall as she was.

"Mr. Chang, Mr. Chang Ming, Miss Qianzhi from Qianzhi House said that this is the clothes you ordered, and asked me to deliver it to you—"

As Sedna spoke, she walked with great effort from the office door to Chang Ming's desk.

Perhaps it was because the documents and the gift box containing the clothes blocked Sedna's sight, which forced her to focus completely on her feet.

——If I fall down in front of Lord Chang Ming, my life in Fontaine will probably be over, right?

This is Sedna's idea.

However, before Sedna could move forward, she suddenly felt her hands lighten, and the documents and gift boxes disappeared in her hands.

"Eh?!"

She raised her head slightly and saw Chang Ming, who was holding documents and a gift box and smiling at her.

"Thank you for your hard work, Sedna. Be careful not to fall. Work is work, but safety is the most important thing."

As Chang Ming spoke, he reached out and rubbed her little head, then walked towards his desk.

Sedna, on the other hand, stared at the tall figure in a daze, her hands unconsciously covering her mouth, a hint of reverence in her eyes.

"Thank you, Lord Chang Ming!"

Sedna said loudly, and then jumped out of Chang Ming's office, looking in a good mood.

......

However, before Chang Ming could open the gift box that Qianzhi gave him and see what kind of clothes she designed for him...a crisp knock on the door sounded behind him.

"Eh? Is the door open? Master Chang Ming is not here...Ah! Master Chang Ming, may I come in now? I have something to discuss with you."

Claude looked at Chang Ming, who was standing with his back to the door and looking down, doing something unknown, and asked in a slightly excited voice.

Hearing the voice, Chang Ming subconsciously turned his head and saw Claude with an excited smile on his face.

"Ah, it's Claude, is the script for the musical ready?"

Looking at Claude who was smiling excitedly, Chang Ming smiled back and asked.

"Yes! It was just revised two hours ago. The music score and corresponding lyrics are all ready!"

Chang Ming nodded in understanding when he heard this, then took the script from Claude and began to read it carefully.

——Although Chang Ming didn’t think that Claude would have any ulterior motives in this, but... this is the procedure that should be followed after all.

If I was doing Claude a favor and those playwrights who were rejected by Chang Ming for having their own agenda in their scripts knew about it...

I'm afraid that both myself and Claude will get into some trouble.

As time passed, the expression on Claude's face became more and more tense.

This feeling is just like those scholars in the Xumi School of Teaching who have prepared for their graduation thesis defense for four years and are now about to receive their instructor's evaluation.

As Chang Ming finished reading the last word, he gently closed the script, handed it to Claude and said:

"No problem, Mr. Claude. Have you found your actors? If so, I can help you book a show now."

Hearing this, Claude showed an embarrassed look on his face, and said a little embarrassedly:

"Um... Lord Chang Ming, please forgive me for being so presumptuous, but could you please sing this song during the finale?"

As if afraid that Chang Ming would refuse, Claude quickly added:

"Master Chang Ming! I know this may be a little unreasonable, but from the perspective of artistic expression... you are the best choice."

"You have witnessed the stories of Boethius with your own eyes, and even became him in those stories. You have also done in-depth research on Fontaine's opera, so..."

As Claude spoke, he handed the script in his hand to Chang Ming and did not continue.

Just when Chang Ming was thinking about how to deal with this matter...a light curtain appeared in front of his eyes.

[Claude invites you to play Boethius, what will you choose? ]

【Agree/Reject】
