Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

Chang Ming paused for a moment after saying this, then continued:

"Of course, with the guidance of my teacher who has long been at the top of the Fontaine dessert industry... the time for the lovely Fu Fu to succeed will only come sooner, not later~"

Hearing Chang Ming's words, Funina nodded slightly, then asked softly:

"So...can I try making a cake myself?"

Funina blinked quickly, and her beautiful eyes revealed a hint of eagerness to try, as if she had a great interest in making cakes.

Chang Ming nodded happily upon seeing this. After all, this was his own god and also his lover. How could he possibly refuse?

Besides, in all these years...this was the first time he had seen someone who was so passionate about making cakes.

but...

Chang Ming never expected that Funina was not that interested in the art of making cakes. At best, it was just an extra skill for her to rely on.

What she cared about from the beginning to the end was not the cakes and desserts that could only satisfy her appetite and temporarily soothe her spirit.

——It was the expression of surprise and emotion on the face of the regent who had been by his side from beginning to end.

Thinking of this, the corners of Funina's mouth slightly raised, and she even stirred the meringue a little faster, and all of this... was seen by Chang Ming.

Looking at Funina, whose lips curled up for some reason, Chang Ming chuckled and shook his head.

"Does this girl really like cakes so much?"

Just when Chang Ming was about to ask Funina what flavor of cake she planned to make for the first time...an abrupt knock on the door sounded in their ears.

knock knock --

"Ms. Funina, is Mr. Chang Ming here with you today?"

Along with the rather crisp knock on the door came Villette's rather steady voice.

Hearing this, Funina turned slightly to look at Chang Ming beside her, as if asking whether she should let him come forward.

After all, in the eyes of most people who know the situation, Chang Ming, who has been taking care of Funina for nearly five hundred years, will naturally continue to take care of her after this time point.

That's why Villette came here directly.

Looking at Funina in front of him, Chang Ming nodded gently, then pointed at the gradually whipped meringue in front of her, signaling her to continue.

He quickly walked to the door, opened it calmly and said:

"Lady Funina is...thinking about how to make desserts herself, and I just happen to be here. What's wrong, Villette?"

Looking at Chang Ming, who was dressed in casual clothes, Villette blinked slightly, as if he found the current situation difficult to understand.

However, he did not dwell on this point too much. Instead, he paused for a moment before continuing:

"Mr. Chang Ming, regarding the suggestion you made earlier... I have made my choice."

"That doesn't surprise me. Come on."

As Chang Ming spoke, he pointed at the coffee table in the room, motioning Villette to come in and talk, acting like the owner of the room.

Looking at Chang Ming's actions, Villette's thoughts suddenly froze, and then he followed Chang Ming into the room in a daze.

He had a very strange feeling, as if... the owner of this house was not Funina, but Chang Ming.

Of course, he did not raise this question on the spot, because for him...there were more important things to do and ask.

"please."

A strong scent of tea interrupted Villette's thoughts. He raised his head slightly and saw Chang Ming naturally pushing a cup of tea in front of him.

"So... Violet, are you still coming to me for that matter? Or... do you have a new idea?"

Chang Ming asked softly.

Hearing Chang Ming's question, Villette was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes, I need your help."

"After witnessing the expressions of the troupe members when they saw Oletti again, I understood some...relatively extreme emotions."

"Perhaps... as you said, witnessing others make up for their regrets is another form of 'understanding'."

Having said this, Villette did not continue speaking, because he knew very well that his colleague would definitely know what he wanted to say.

Chang Ming took a sip of tea and said softly:

"That coincides with my purpose... Then Villette, of course we can continue to cooperate."

"Of course, this is also the agreement between you and me."

After saying this, Chang Ming blinked slightly, and after thinking for a while, he continued:

"Oh, by the way, Fu Nina and I will be going to Liyue in a few days. One is to discuss the delivery of tea leaves from Chenyu Valley, and the other is to discuss the child's illness. Do you want to come with us?"

Hearing Chang Ming's invitation, Villette blinked slightly, then shook her head gently.

"I'm not good at socializing, let alone negotiating business cooperation with high-ranking people in the commercial center of the entire Teyvat. This is not in line with my abilities."

"Plus, the recent events in the court...I'm afraid it will take some time to deal with them. I can't leave for the time being."

That Villette gently touched his chin, as if thinking about recent events, and then began to speak:

"Take the Noklan family incident as an example. It would take at least a week just to wait for the key evidence from the executive officer to arrive, so..."

That Villette didn't continue speaking, but Chang Ming already understood what he meant.

Although originally...he didn't want to take Villette to Fontaine. After all, he had been working for so many years and it was time for him to take a break.

He could have delegated some of the Supreme Inquisitor's tasks to other Inquisitors, but... he didn't.

The sense of responsibility that Fukalos entrusted to him still affects him today.

Thinking of this, Chang Ming sighed helplessly.

"Didn't you say before that you wanted to meet the 'Genjin God' and judge him?"

Villette shook his head slightly, then explained softly:

"There is not just one plan for trial, nor just one form."

"I have been waiting for five hundred years, and I am not in a hurry any longer."
