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

"Taro Maru, you want to do your part too, don't you?"

Taro-maru wagged his tail even more enthusiastically, barking in response.

"Taro Maru, I choose you!"

"Go and gather some wood for me to start a fire."

At Fang Xun's command, Taro Maru went off to search for wood with his short legs.

The dog is very smart; it knows what Fang Xun needs.

It glanced at the damp, hard-to-fire wood, then looked away and paid it no further attention.

It will only bring back wood that is the right size for starting a fire.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xun couldn't help but sigh, "Taro Maru is truly intelligent."

Maybe Taromaru can help take care of the kids in the future.

The little ones will probably like this cute little hook, and they should get along well with it.

Not long after, Taro returned with firewood.

And there were quite a few of them, enough to burn all night.

Fang Xun also arranged the wood and prepared to start a fire.

Seeing this, Alice, who was sitting next to her, stood up and said, "Are we starting a fire now? I can help."

As she spoke, Alice held the bomb in her hands, looking eager to try it out.

In Alice's view, bombs could solve all problems.

If one bomb isn't enough, then two will do.

Seeing this, Fang Xun quickly reached out to stop her: "Alice, you can just sit there and rest. Leave the fire-starting to me."

Alice's frying of fish just now caused quite a commotion.

If she were to detonate the bomb again, it would be impossible to explain.

Besides, why would you need a bomb to ignite a fire?

Saying it's like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut is an understatement, isn't it?

Alice looked at Fang Xun, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion.

It's obvious they can't understand why Fang Xun wouldn't let her use the bomb.

Isn't using a bomb the simplest way to ignite a fire?

However, since Fang Xun has said so, Alice will not insist.

"Alright, then I'll leave the task of starting the fire to you, Fang Xun."

Alice crossed her arms over her chest, wanting to see how Fang Xun would light the fire.

Taro, standing next to Fang Xun, tilted his head back to examine him, his tail twitching occasionally, his eyes filled with curiosity.

It also wanted to know what its new owner would do.

Fang Xun looked at the piled-up timber.

The next second, golden light gathered in his hand, and the weapon 'Disaster Relief' appeared.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Xun used Walnut's elemental burst 'Soothing Mystic Technique', and a ball of flame flickered at the tip of the spear.

After Fang Xun reduced the flames, they appeared to be only the size of a palm.

When the flames touched the wood, there was a loud bang, and the wood burst into flames as quickly as paper, burning fiercely.

After the firewood was lit, Alice immediately put the fish on the fire to grill.

Her technique was very skillful; she must have had a lot of experience grilling fish.

The firelight illuminated her profile, revealing an indescribable gentleness and tranquility.

If you only look at this moment, Fang Xun would find it hard to associate Alice with a quirky witch.

I never expected Alice could cook, and her cooking skills seem pretty good.

Alice's grilled fish sizzled and released a wonderful aroma.

Taro sat obediently by the fire, staring intently at the grilled fish, his eyes full of anticipation.

Alice could also tell that Taro was extremely hungry.

She picked out a finished grilled fish and handed it to Taro.

"Little puppy, you look very hungry, so you can eat first."

Immediately afterwards, Alice handed Fang Xun a grilled fish.

Fang Xun didn't stand on ceremony with Alice, after all, they were from the same bomb squad.

In Alice's words, they were a family.

Alice looked at Fang Xun and asked with a light laugh, "Fang Xun, what do you think of the taste?"

Fang Xun carefully tasted the grilled fish and then commented, "This grilled fish is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside; the texture is excellent."

"Most importantly, the taste is very different from any other grilled fish I've ever had before; it's very unique."

So far, Fang Xun thinks the best grilled fish he's ever had was the one Ningguang made when he first arrived in Liyue Harbor.

However, Alice's grilled fish was also quite good, with a different flavor.

Fang Xun thought it must be a unique practice in Mondstadt.

Upon hearing Fang Xun's assessment, Alice smiled and said, "Do you know why this grilled fish tastes so unique?"

"It's a bomb. I put a bomb in the grilled fish."

Fang Xun: ? ? ?

Taro was enjoying his meal when he heard Alice's explanation and silently spat out the meat he had just eaten.

Seeing Fang Xun and Taromaru's hesitant expressions, Alice covered her mouth and laughed.

"Look at how nervous and bewildered you all are, I was just joking,"

"What I mean is, the bombs not only blast these fish ashore, but they also make them taste better."

"Frying fish and catching fish together result in different flavors."

Alice paused for a moment, then extended an invitation to Fang Xun.

"If you ever want to fry fish in the future, you can look me up,"

"I know there's a place in Mondstadt called Starfall Lake, which is perfect for frying fish!"

Fang Xun noticed that whenever Alice talked about bombs and fish, her eyes would light up and her face would be filled with a joyful smile.

It's clear she really likes fried fish.

Fang Xun was both amused and exasperated. It seemed that Klee's love for fried fish was indeed inherited from Alice.

"Alice, have you thought about what will happen in the future?"

"Ok?"

"For example, if you have a child in the future, and she goes out to fish with explosives every day, then the captain will lock her in solitary confinement?"

From Chapter 192 onwards, you will be responsible for taking care of the child.

Most of the time, Alice appears carefree, with a smile on her face.

It seems that nothing ever bothers her.

But when the other party asked her a question, Alice seemed thoughtful.

She looked at the fire, and after a moment said slowly, "To be honest, I haven't thought about the future yet."

"I feel like I can't even take care of myself right now, let alone take care of children."

"If we really have to face the issue of 'raising children' in the future, there are actually solutions."

Alice stood up, stretching languidly in the moonlight.

She looked at Fang Xun beside her, and then smiled.

"I really don't know how to take care of kids, but it would be great if you did."

"Then it's settled. You'll be in charge of taking care of the child from now on."

"If the child goes astray, they'll come after you, hmph!"

Alice also knew that Fang Xun had experience in taking care of children, so she was sure to entrust this matter to him.

Furthermore, Alice and Fang Xun spent some time together.

She felt very reassured if Fang Xun took care of the child.

Fang Xun was stunned when he heard this.

What do you mean by "Let's just say it like this"?

Was this entirely Alice's unilateral announcement?

This witch really does whatever she wants, she's so capricious.

However, Fang Xun did not object.

Because he also really likes Claire's daughter.

Klee's "la la la" and "da da da" are just too cute!

I wonder how many elderly parents have been forced to spend money to bring their daughters home.

Looking back, when Fang Xun was playing the game, he missed the Klee gacha pool, otherwise he would have definitely brought his daughter home.

Speaking of Klee, Fang Xun was a little curious.

The game only mentions that Klee's mother is Iris, but never mentions Klee's father.

So, who is Klee's father?
