Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

While Chang Ming and Funina were having a sweet interaction as a couple on the busy streets, treating the people around them as part of their play...

There has also been some progress with Jiaming and his father.

Looking at Ye De standing in front of the wooden bridge, holding the beast kite made by Shuyu in his hand, Jiaming's eyes suddenly became...blurred.

He knew his father very well, and was well aware of what it meant that he came to him today with the kite of the beast.

Just as Xianyun said, he really...accepted himself.

Thinking of this, Jiaming raised his legs and walked towards him quickly.

Perhaps because the feeling was too obvious, and because he was really excited at the moment, his original "brisk walk" gradually escalated into "running".

But...under normal circumstances, Jiaming should hug Ye De at this time and express their feelings to each other in silence.

But things did not develop according to "usual circumstances".

Although Jiaming already knew that Ye De approved of his idea, the gap between father and son still needed a process to be broken.

——The estrangement that has lasted for several years is not easy to break.

Looking at his father in front of him, Jiaming was silent for a moment, then turned his gaze to Shuyu beside him.

"Shuyu, do you want me to take you back?"

Shuyu shook her head gently, pointed at the Mi Nu Xiao Lantern not far away, and said in her childish voice:

"No need~ The master is over there~"

After saying that, Shuyu ran away.

The disciples of the immortals naturally have their own strengths. Even the younger Shuyu...she can see that Ye De and Jia Ming have something to say.

——What's more, she already knew that Jiaming and Ye De had a bad relationship?

After Shuyu gradually walked away, Jiaming and Ye De looked at each other, just like when they were left at the tea table by Ying and Paimeng.

But...this time there was no help from others, but it all came from the "sincerity" in their hearts towards their loved ones.

After a period of silence, Jiaming and Ye De spoke again in unison:

"Dad (Jiaming)."

But this time, the two of them didn't bow their heads and remain silent again.

——but a slightly awkward father and son.

That’s right, compared to the silence at the tea table before...no one would have thought that they were father and son.

Ye De smiled awkwardly, scratched the back of his head subconsciously, and then said frankly:

“…Hahaha, let me speak first this time.”

Perhaps it was because of what Chang Ming had said before, or perhaps it was because he was touched by seeing Jia Ming perform in his favorite career, Ye De's voice unconsciously softened.

"It's very exciting. After watching the beast dance show for so long, even I have to say... it's very exciting."

Ye De clapped his hands as he spoke, and his brown eyes, which were exactly the same as Jia Ming's, showed a hint of emotion.

"call..."

After hearing Ye De's words, Jiaming's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down at this moment.

He was afraid that his performance today would not win his father's approval, and he was also afraid that he would not be able to muster enough courage and perseverance to perform.

But everyone who tried their best to reconcile him and his father gave him courage.

but...

I may have to put my thanks to them aside for a while, after all, Xianyun said something this afternoon.

——"Breaking the barrier between you and your father is the best reward for us."

Thinking of this, he scratched the back of his head subconsciously like his father, and then said:

"I didn't expect that my dad would give in sometimes."

"You...really want to make this a career?"

"Yes! I know it will be difficult, but..."

Before Jiaming finished speaking, Ye De shook his head gently and said:

"that's not important."

Hearing this, Jiaming was slightly stunned, as if he had misunderstood Ye De's words, and then lowered his head in frustration.

"Still...not possible?"

Seeing Jiaming like this, Ye De quickly explained:

“I mean, ‘difficulties’ are objective, but they are not important. What is important is your decision, your dream, and your action.”

"Thinking back to those days, I... hehe... never mind, I'll leave the memories of the good old days for next time."

"In short, Dad, I changed my mind..."

As Ye De spoke, he slightly raised his head and looked at the night sky of Liyue, at the night sky where there were many kites besides the twinkling sky lanterns.

"It's time for this kite to fly higher."

"Dad..."

After hearing Ye De's words, Jiaming didn't know what to say for a moment.

Maybe it was just like what Chang Ming said when he was comforting him.

"Time and distance can change a lot of things, and all you lack is a chance to sit down and have a good chat."

Thinking of this, Jiaming was about to say something, but Ye De looked at Jiaming who was thinking about something and said:

"...Son."

"Why are you yelling like that all of a sudden..."

Looking at the somewhat shy Jiaming, Ye De couldn't help but smile slightly.

“Are you thinking, “This is unlike you” or “How dare you say something like that?”

Hearing Ye De's words, Jiaming subconsciously wanted to refute, but when he thought of the current situation... he immediately stopped.

"...Hmph. Ahem, yeah, a little bit..."

Seeing Jiaming also becoming frank, Ye De nodded with satisfaction, and in his heart he also began to thank Chang Ming for his guidance.

——Of course, if Chang Ming were to say...actually he had nothing to do with this matter from beginning to end.

If Ye De is really stubborn, then nothing an outsider says will be of any use.

But if Ye De has his own ideas and wants to improve the relationship between him and Jia Ming...then things will go smoothly.

......

After a brief thought, Ye De slowly said:

"I can never find a chance to say it. Actually... Ahem!"

"Actually, to me, you are a very good kid."

Hearing Ye De's words, Jiaming suddenly raised his head and looked at Ye De in front of him, feeling a little...at a loss for a moment.

This was the first time he heard affirmation from his father.

And this is what he has always longed for.

Looking at Jiaming who seemed to be speechless, Ye De smiled apologetically, then said softly:

"Okay, I've said everything I wanted to say. Didn't you have something to say just now?"

"..."

Jiaming was silent for a while, then threw himself into his father's arms and hugged him tightly.

Not long after, the two slowly separated, and Ye De also noticed Ying and Paimeng who had been peeking at them for a while.

"Okay, look over there, your friends are still waiting for you."

"Eh? But... you finally came to Liyue Harbor..."

"Dad will stay in Liyue Harbor for a while. Mora, who's having morning tea...are you the one who's going to go out?"

Ye De looked at Jia Ming in front of him with a hint of joking, as if at this moment, their relationship could truly be called "a pair of father and son".

"Dad...you are such a fool!"
