[Genshin Impact]: I can become stronger by cooking.

"..."

"Don't look sad before you leave, it won't look good when you look back on it later."

As he spoke, Chao Ke gently patted Farusan's forehead.

"Come on, let's eat. The coconut shell cakes won't be crispy after a while."

"it is good."

"The distance from Sumeru to Fontaine is not far. If we want to meet, it's only a few days' journey."

"Besides, I also plan to open a branch in Xumi. Before long, we will be able to meet again for a long time."

"Ah."

Farusian agreed softly, then suddenly remembered something.

He turned and left, rummaging through his bundle for a while, and finally gave Chao Ke an exquisite gift box.

"I've prepared a gift for you. Would you like to open it and see?"

"Ah."

Chao Ke took the gift box and gently opened it.

Inside the gift box lay an exceptionally exquisite stone lock. Although it resembled the "Worldly Lock" somewhat, it was clear that they were two objects of different styles.

"This is?"

"This is the token of our covenant, and also my contract with you."

"I have hidden all my wisdom and love within this stone lock."

"If you can untangle it..."

"I will cross mountains and seas to fulfill a contract called marriage."

The stone lock floated in Chao Ke's hand, slowly rotating.

The emotions contained within it made Chao Ke feel exceptionally profound.

"I see..."

"This is the gift that the old man mentioned, which is a thousand times more precious than the stone slab imbued with his power."

"That's true."

--------------

midnight.

Chao Ke gently got out of bed and patted his lover beside him, who had also spent a sleepless night.

"I'm leaving."

"come back earlier."

"Ah."

Chao Ke wasn't good at saying goodbye, nor did he want to make the matter too sentimental.

Leaving at midnight, thus avoiding a daytime farewell, is perhaps the best choice.

In a few flashes, Chao Ke left Farusan's residence and arrived at the edge of Sumeru City.

Silently removing the earrings, Chao Ke suddenly recalled an amusing incident.

That day, he joked with the guard Gongola at the Luowan Post Station.

"Let me tell you, Farusan and I are actually lovers. We were on a romantic trip in the desert of Sumeru, but we accidentally fell into a ruin and were trapped there by its mechanisms for hundreds of years."

Surprisingly, this naive young man actually believed it and even took it upon himself to tell the scholar Beham about it.

This scholar, Beham, is really something else. He lacks the scholarly spirit of inquiry that a scholar should have and simply recorded this matter into the void.

However, Chao Ke probably never imagined that things would develop into what they are now.

A casual remark made back then turned out to be a prophecy, setting the stage for their fate.

In this way, there's no need for Farusan to go to the Council of Churches to apply for and modify the data in the Void.

"By chance and fate, the marriage was preordained."

--------------

Chao Ke's strength has improved significantly.

Traveling alone, his speed is far greater than it used to be.

Traveling at full speed, in just one day and one night, Chao Ke crossed the Xumi Desert directly from the direction of Hengnalana.

On the cliff, Chao Ke gazed at the distant Hailu Harbor.

Looking at the standing statue of the water god, Chao Ke felt a surge of emotion.

After swallowing a mouthful of sand, we've finally seen some water.

Looking at the height of the cliff and the distance to Hailu Harbor, Chao Ke took a deep breath.

He's planning to play the cool one.

Without a parachute or wings, Chao Ke slung his pack over his shoulder, pushed off with his feet, and jumped straight down.

"Boom."

Even the solid rocks of the cliff could not withstand Chao Ke's attempt to use his strength, and were kicked apart by the powerful reaction force.

This shows just how much force Chao Ke used when he pushed off with his feet.

With an already considerable initial speed, coupled with the acceleration provided by gravity, Chao Ke's figure resembled a humanoid rocket.

A magnificent trajectory was drawn across the border between Sumeru and Fontainebleau.

It's just that Fontaine doesn't have an air defense interception system, otherwise Chao Ke would have been intercepted by missiles long ago.

As the altitude decreased, Chao Ke's figure was getting extremely close to Hailu Harbor.

Despite having great confidence in his physical strength, Chao Ke was reluctant to damage the "marriage certificate" of Falushan in the package.

Silently manipulating the power of the water element, a pair of giant hands suddenly rose from the calm sea, gently intercepting Chao Ke.

In this way, it can be considered a soft landing.

Looking at the boundless blue ocean of Fontainebleau, Chao Ke subconsciously shouted something.

"O Tide, I have returned!"

[End of Chapter]

Chapter 102 The Performance of Linnie and Lynette

Harbourfront, Clementine Line.

"Dear passengers, this journey is about to begin. Passengers heading towards Fontainebleau, please board the ship as soon as possible."

The Melucin guides on the cruise ship reminded the passengers waiting there.

Passengers boarded the patrol boat quickly.

A few minutes later, the tour guide called out twice more to make sure no one was getting on the bus. Then she started the cruise ship and began explaining the scenery along the way to everyone.

Although Melusin, who is piloting this cruise ship, is not Abel, she is just as adorable.

Under Miss Melousin's guidance, the cruise ship passed through the Autumn Equinox Mountain and the Morte district, arriving directly at the Ting district waterway hub of Fontaine.

It's worth mentioning that the tour guide also recommended the [Jia Zi Wei Restaurant] to the passengers and praised it highly.

Hmm, Miss Melishin is even cuter in Asaka's eyes.

After getting off the car, Chao Ke stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder, and also gave her a VIP card for the [Jia Zi Wei Restaurant] made of alloy.

The Clementine route is located on the second floor of the Ting District Waterway Hub. Chao Ke took the elevator back to the main terminal hall on the first floor.

Stepping out of the waterway hub and looking at the enormous fountain before him, and at the way the people around him crammed four or five adjectives into a single sentence, Chao Ke finally realized that he had returned to Fontainebleau.

Logically, Chao Ke should immediately go to the Bufati Mansion to report for duty and hand over the acceptance certificate issued by Ms. Rosalin to his older sister, Arecino.

But at this moment, Chao Ke felt a strange mix of trepidation and longing for home.

A gut feeling told him that something bad would happen after he reported to his older sister.

"This time, it seems like they went a bit too wild..."

After much deliberation, Chao Ke decided to sound out his older sister's opinion before going back.

We've already been having so much fun, what's a little more?

Located at the Ting District Waterway Hub, Chao Ke planned to first visit his central kitchen on the second floor of Damovi Department Store to see how the brother and sister were doing and whether the two married apprentices stationed in the central kitchen had received training.

"Click."

Chao Ke pushed open the door to the central kitchen, and the people inside looked somewhat surprised when they saw him.

Jadi, who was marinating chicken, put the chicken down and nudged her brother Dwight, who was kneading dough.

"Brother, Mr. Chao Ke is back."

"Wait, let me finish dealing with these noodles first. Wait, who said came back?!"

Dwight looked up in surprise and glanced at Chao Ke.

"Mr. Chao Ke, you're back."

"Ah."

Chao Ke agreed and then toured the central kitchen.

The hygiene was excellent, and the two married apprentices were also very skilled.

"Well done, you've worked hard these past few days."

Chao promised a generous bonus to the five employees in the central kitchen, and then called Dwight out alone.

"Mr. Chao Ke, is there a problem with you calling me?"

"I'm asking you, what's the situation at the mansion while I was away? Has my older sister made any big moves?"
