Genshin Impact: Ningguang is still a pitiful little thing, I invested in her.

"You're already so tall at such a young age; you'll probably grow even taller than Mr. Fang Xun in the future."

Upon hearing what the street vendor said, Xiao crossed his arms and ignored him.

He just muttered, "Disrespectful to the immortal master."

He looked down at the mask in his hand.

The mask looked extremely cartoonish, the kind that kids love.

You can't possibly wear such a cute mask to exorcise demons, can you?

If that happens, the monster still hasn't been eliminated, and people will probably laugh themselves to death.

Although Xiao looked disgusted, he still carefully put the mask away.

For no other reason than that Fang Xun gave him this mask.

...

My knee is feeling a little better. Thank you everyone for your advice and understanding.

I will adjust the update schedule and try to release chapters as early as possible.

Everyone should get some rest and avoid staying up late.

Chapter 149 At least, I won't hate it

After that, Fang Xun continued strolling through the night market with little Linghua in his arms.

For the little girl, everything in Liyue was so new and exciting.

"Brother Fang Xun, look how high those fireworks are flying!"

"Brother Fang Xun, that origami looks so pretty!"

"Brother Fang Xun..."

The little girl can't stop talking about Fang Xun.

She would share anything she saw or heard with Fang Xun immediately.

Fang Xun listened quietly from the side, occasionally answering the little guy's strange questions.

...

As dusk fell, the number of pedestrians on the streets gradually decreased.

But the little girl showed no signs of sleepiness; on the contrary, she became more and more energetic.

really,

Shopping is a joyful activity for women, and they never tire of it.

After strolling through the night market for so long, Fang Xun was getting a little hungry.

Having previously used the power of the Heart of God to seal Oser, he felt slightly tired.

Specifically, this manifests as feeling slightly sleepy and wanting to eat a large meal.

And this time of night is the perfect time to have a late-night snack.

Fang Xun slowed down a bit. Why not take the two little ones and Xiao to get some barbecue?

The Kamisato siblings probably haven't tried Inazuma's barbecue yet.

For the two little ones, perhaps the barbecue in Liyue will open the door to a new world for them.

After all, Liyue's unique Jueyun chili pepper is absolutely amazing when grilled!

And as for the demon, needless to say...

That guy only found almond tofu barely palatable.

Changing your tastes occasionally might be a good choice.

Thinking about it this way, Fang Xun led the three of them toward the barbecue shop.

The aroma from that barbecue restaurant wafted over from a great distance.

After smelling the fragrance, Ayaka suddenly felt a little hungry.

The barbecue in Liyue is completely different from that in Inazuma.

It looks so delicious!

(??﹃??)

The little girl tilted her head back, her big, watery eyes staring straight at Fang Xun.

She asked timidly, "Brother Fang Xun, may I have some barbecue? I'm really craving some..."

Upon hearing Ayaka's request, Fang Xun couldn't help but laugh.

Who could refuse a request from an adorable little girl?

Especially the little guy's expectant expression as he looked at him.

Fang Xunmeng's heart almost melted.

"Eat up, eat up. I brought you guys here for barbecue anyway."

As he spoke, Fang Xun turned to look at Xiao behind him.

"Won't you get tired of eating almond tofu all the time? Try something new once in a while."

"If you don't know what to eat, I'll help you order."

Without waiting for Xiao to speak, Fang Xun pulled him by the arm and led him into the store.

In truth, Xiao knew all of this.

Fang Xun wanted to help, to enable Xiao to coexist better with humans.

Xiao remained silent and quietly followed Fang Xun into the store.

The shop owner was a middle-aged man who looked very energetic and cheerful.

Upon seeing Fang Xun arrive, the shopkeeper greeted him with a smile: "Mr. Fang Xun, you've arrived, and with three children?"

"Please wait a moment, I'll bring the menu right away."

It seems that Fang Xun is a regular customer at this barbecue restaurant.

Sometimes, when Fang Xun was bored at night, he would accompany Qi Qi for a walk.

After his walk, Fang Xun would go to a barbecue restaurant to grab a bite to eat.

Most of the time, Qiqi would sit on a small stool, holding a coconut milk in her arms, quietly waiting for Fang Xun.

Over time, Fang Xun also got to know the owner of this barbecue restaurant.

The boss also knew that Fang Xun, this customer, was not short of money and was very particular about his spending.

He resembles Zhongli Keqing of the Wangsheng Hall.

If you take good care of these kinds of customers, spending won't be a problem.

The owner immediately brought over the menu.

Fang Xun took the menu from the shop owner and handed it to the Shen siblings.

Fortunately, the menu has not only text but also pictures.

The brother and sister only need to point at the picture, and the boss standing next to them will immediately take out a pen and paper to write it down.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Xun ordered food for Xiao: "Boss, one grilled fish, one grilled eggplant..."

"Oh right, also bring out all the barbecue items that taste similar to almond tofu."

"My buddy here is a picky eater, tonight will be the test of your cooking skills."

Fang Xun also tried to order some barbecue that Xiao would accept.

Xiao, sitting to the side, listened quietly and had no objection to Fang Xun's arrangements.

He doesn't really enjoy eating, but now he's accompanying Fang Xun to eat barbecue, which is also an attempt to integrate into human life.

However, when Fang Xun mentioned the word "brother,"

Xiao's previously calm heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Over the course of thousands of years, the word 'buddy' has become quite unfamiliar to Xiao.

Now that it's brought up again, it's hard not to feel a little emotional.

It feels like having friends around again...

It's better than being alone.

Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Xiao asked Fang Xun, "Mr. Fang Xun, you ordered so much barbecue for me, what about for yourself?"

Fang Xun smiled and waved his hand dismissively: "Hey, I'll just make do with whatever."

As he spoke, Fang Xun looked up at the shop owner.

"Boss, I'll have one of everything on your barbecue menu!"

"Alright, please wait a moment, the food will be here shortly!"

A short while later, the owner brought up the barbecue.

The grilled food was steaming hot, sizzling with oil, and topped with Liyue's signature Jueyun peppers; it looked amazing.

The Kamisato siblings also started enjoying grilled skewers.

It was clear they really enjoyed the barbecue in Liyue; they finished their skewers in no time.

The two of them then ordered some more grilled skewers from the menu.

Xiao stared quietly at the abundance of barbecue in front of him. After a long while, he picked up his chopsticks, gently picked up a piece of grilled fish, and put it in his mouth.

Fang Xun turned to look at Xiao and then asked, "Xiao, what do you think of the barbecue?"

Xiao put down his chopsticks and nodded slightly: "It tastes a little better than I expected."

"At least, I won't hate it."
