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

"After dinner, I'll go for a walk; I also have a night run..."

Hearing this, Barbara roughly understood what Fang Xun meant.

Once you've exhausted your pet's energy, they'll have no choice but to sleep peacefully at night.

After that, Barbara asked several more questions, and Fang Xun used examples from his own life to answer them.

Time passed little by little, and before we knew it, day had turned into night.

During this time, Barbara learned a lot of pet-raising skills by chatting with Fang Xun.

As a thank you, Barbara decided to treat Fang Xun and the others to dinner.

"Yay! Let's go eat!"

Paimon was undoubtedly the happiest when he heard that they were going to have dinner.

Fang Xun and Barbara were talking about cats and dogs, and Fang Xun couldn't get a word in edgewise.

However, when it comes to the "rice bowl" (a term referring to a product or service), Paimon still has a lot of say.

She can tell which place has the best food in the whole of Mondstadt just by tasting it!

Soon, the group arrived at the restaurant.

Barbara handed the menu to Fang Xun and the others, and she also ordered a few dishes for herself, including spicy dried fish and spicy drinks...

All the dishes were very spicy.

Although both are singers, Yun Jin has a light diet, eating only stir-fried shrimp every day.

Barbara, however, showed no intention of protecting her voice; she seemed to have a penchant for spicy food.

I wonder what it would be like if these two sat down to eat together.

Yun Jin probably saw Barbara's incredulous expression and wondered if eating spicy food would hurt her throat.

Barbara also couldn't understand Yun Jin's approach. Did singing require such a bland diet?

Chapter 396 Come to my house for a free meal

"Barbara, are you sure you can handle eating so much spicy food?"

Seeing that Barbara had ordered a bunch of spicy dishes, and even her drinks were spicy, Fang Xun couldn't help but ask her what was wrong.

Barbara shook her head and explained very seriously, "It's okay, these chilies won't harm your body, please believe me."

"The spicy dried fish at this shop is really good, you guys have to try it later!"

"Their spicy dried fish is the best in all of Mondstadt..."

Just as Barbara was recommending dried fish to Fang Xun, a restaurant waitress rushed over, looking very apologetic.

"Sorry, we've sold out of spicy dried fish for today."

"Should we replace it with another type of fish? It tastes good too."

"Hey, are you out of spicy dried anchovies?"

Barbara pouted, looking very disappointed.

She came to this restaurant specifically for the spicy dried fish.

As a result, business was so good during the Flower Festival that the shop sold out of dried fish.

Barbara was holding the cat in her arms, pressing its head down with her chin, and looked very frustrated.

It's really sad that I can't eat dried anchovies.

"I'm going out for a moment and will be back soon."

At this moment, Fang Xun stood up and spoke to signal.

He remembered winning a food item called "delicious spicy dried fish" in a previous raffle.

That thing is useless in my backpack, I might as well give it to Barbara.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Xun left the restaurant and took the opportunity to retrieve the spicy dried fish from his backpack.

I think coming to Barbara and tasting the 'delicious spicy dried fish' will definitely cheer me up again.

However, Fang Xun was not in a hurry to go back. Instead, he strolled all the way to Wagner's blacksmith shop.

Tomorrow is the Wind and Flower Festival, and Fang Xun came to check on the forging progress of the weapon 'When the Pine Trees Resound'.

At the moment, the blacksmith Wagner was concentrating on his work, hammering away with his iron hammer, completely unaware of Fang Xun's arrival.

Fang Xun really liked Wagner's work ethic.

A blacksmith who concentrates intently will forge weapons of high quality.

The preliminary work for 'When the Pine Trees Sound' has now been completed.

The basic shape and outline have been taken shape; the next step is to refine the details.

This is also the most crucial part of the forging process; it is not only time-consuming and laborious, but the slightest mistake can render all the previous hard work futile.

Fang Xun was initially worried that Wagner would exceed the agreed time.

However, seeing the blacksmith's confident expression and the unwavering movements in his hands, Fang Xun gradually relaxed.

Since Wagner said he could create "the sound of pine trees" on the day of the Wind and Flower Festival, he would do anything to achieve it.

This matter concerns the blacksmith's reputation.

After checking Yura's weapon progress, Fang Xun quietly returned to the restaurant.

"Barbara, come and try this dish. How do you think it tastes? How would you rate it compared to all the spicy dried fish you've ever had?"

As they spoke, Fang Xun pushed the spicy dried fish in front of Barbara.

Barbara blinked, then she realized that Fang Xun had left to find dried fish for her, and a warm feeling immediately welled up inside her.

"Okay, then I'll start eating."

Bringing herself back to reality, Barbara picked up a small dried fish, put it in her mouth, and savored it carefully.

"It's fragrant and spicy, a delicious little dried fish!"

Barbara's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed in admiration.

She had tried spicy dried fish at many restaurants, but none of them tasted as good as the dried fish Fang Xun brought.

"Brother Fang Xun, which store did you buy this spicy dried fish from?"

"wrong..."

"I've tried all the spicy dried fish at every restaurant in Mondstadt. There's no way I wouldn't remember such delicious dried fish."

"Could it be that Brother Fang Xun made these spicy dried fish by hand?"

"Brother Fang Xun cooks very well, we all love his cooking!"

Ningguang, who was standing to the side, spoke up. She highly praised Fang Xun's cooking skills.

Brother Fang Xun's cooking is so delicious, you could eat it for a lifetime and never get tired of it.

Apart from Ningguang, the other little ones nodded repeatedly, indicating they liked Fang Xun's cooking.

Even the round, chubby Taro-maru, who looks like a gas cylinder, proves that Fang Xun's food is good...

"If I have the chance, can I go to Brother Fang Xun's house for a meal?"

After spending a day together, Barbara had a very good impression of the other party.

She was curious about what other dishes Fang Xun could make besides spicy dried fish.

"Of course you can."

Fang Xun smiled and answered gently.

Chapter 397 It's the first time I've seen a dog deliver a message.

After finishing her meal, Barbara seemed to be in a good mood.

She put her hands behind her back and skipped forward, humming a cheerful song softly.

As a future idol singer, Barbara has extremely high singing talent; she is blessed with a natural talent and a voice kissed by angels.

The moment Barbara began to sing, the previously noisy little girls all fell silent, their attention completely drawn to the beautiful singing.

The singing seemed to have a warm and healing power, making people feel as if they were bathed in a spring breeze.

"Barbara sings...it sounds beautiful..."

After finishing the song, Qiqi earnestly expressed her inner thoughts.

Beidou nodded repeatedly, agreeing, "This is the best singing I've ever heard... Barbara, can you sing another song?"

"It's so good! I feel like I could listen to it countless times and never get tired of it!"

"If you combine Barbara's voice with my doggerel... it's got potential, it's definitely got potential!"

Seeing the rave reviews from Hu Tao and the others, Barbara felt flattered.

"Everyone, do you really think I sing well?"

Noticing the nervous look on Barbara's face, Fang Xun chuckled and teased, "Even Hu Tao said you sing well, so you really do sing well."

"Because that girl always says what she thinks. Last time I sang, she even said I was tone-deaf."

"That's right, that's right, I never lie! Grandpa said that children who lie never grow up!"

Walnut, hands on hips, looking proud.jpg

"But, but I feel like my singing has been really bad lately..."

"I feel like I've hit a plateau, but I don't know how to break through it and go further..."

As Barbara said this, the image of her sister Jean subconsciously flashed into her mind.

In Barbara's memory, the piano perfectly embodied the word "excellent."

Barbara has always tried very hard to catch up with Qin.
