Genshin Impact: I’m really not a daddy

"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come to see you."

Looking at the half-divided documents in front of him, Bai Chu sighed and said angrily.

"You are so relieved to hand over so many documents to an old man who brought you up. No, it's really heartless."

"Based on common rationality, since we are the elders, it doesn't matter if we give appropriate help to the younger ones, right?"

Zhongli replied casually without raising his head, and continued to write quickly without changing his expression.

But if you look carefully, you will find that there is actually a smile on his face.

He found it quite interesting to see Bai Chu looking so depressed.

Even boring work doesn't seem so boring anymore.

"Do you believe I'll beat you up?" Bai Chu rolled his eyes and said angrily, stood up from the chair, reached out and tapped his head lightly with the penholder.

"Let me suffer with you... Hehe, Zhongli, when did you learn to be bad?"

Although he was in Liuyun, he was submissive in front of A Ping, but in front of Zhongli, the majesty of the elders suddenly emerged.

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Bai..."

In response to this, Zhongli could only smile helplessly and obediently lowered his head to acknowledge his knock.

Oh, I'm used to it.

What can I say?

The two smiled at each other and continued to work with their heads down.

Time passes slowly. Both of them were quick with their work, but even so it took two hours.

"Haa~"

Bai Chu sat on the chair and stretched, then lay lazily on the table, showing an expression of relief.

"It's finally over... Zhongli, are you doing this here every day?"

I really don’t know how this kid can hold on...

"Do not."

However, Zhongli shook his head. Under his doubtful gaze, Zhongli smiled slightly, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Usually there are dedicated people to handle these. But because I know you are coming, Mr. Bai, I let them handle other things."

"..." Bai Chu's expression froze.

He understood.

Zhongli, this little bastard... Bah, bastard bastard, he did it on purpose!

"Zhongli!"

He immediately became angry, and he poked Zhongli's head gently with the pen holder in an angry and funny tone.

"Okay, okay, you did it on purpose, right? Why, you can't see me being idle."

"Where." Zhongli smiled.

"Based on universal rationality, if Mr. Bai is here to help me, others will be able to handle more things. Isn't it good?"

"That's good." Bai Chu rolled his eyes.

If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come to see this evil-minded guy. Wouldn't it be nice to have tea with A Ping there?

You can still listen to music and fall asleep, why are you here to be so angry?

This guy is a pure bad guy, and he even tricked Gan Yu into working for him.

"Zhongli, don't be a capitalist in the future. You can't trick a child into working for you."

Thinking of Gan Yu, Bai Chu sighed, patted his shoulder gently, and said seriously.

"Otherwise, I will turn you into a pendant."

Zhongli: "?"

Are capitalists and pendants... related?

Zhongli was a little confused. However, he didn't take it to heart.

It was like this in the past. Bai Chu would always say some weird and incomprehensible words, just ignore them.

"Mr. Bai, have you gone to see Liu Yun?"

"Well, I'm still living at her place now."

"Ahem, this, this is it..."

Zhongli choked, coughed twice, and twitched the corner of his mouth.

Hmm... Did you move so fast?

"And, you..."

Bai Chu didn't know what he was thinking. He looked at Zhongli, narrowed his eyes slightly, and reached out to pinch his face.

Zhongli: "That...Mr. Bai?"

He was stunned for a moment, a little unaccustomed to it, but also a little nostalgic.

It’s been thousands of years, and you haven’t been pinched like this, right?

Ha...it seems like it's back to the way it was before.

"Mr. Bai, what's wrong?"

"I'm talking about you..." Bai Chu sighed, let go of his hand, and knocked his head angrily.

"Have you lost weight? It's true, you haven't eaten well at first glance."

Zhongli was much taller than him now, so he had to raise his head to look at him.

"Hey...this..."

Zhongli lowered his head and smiled slightly as he looked at Bai Chu, who was chattering and was half a head lower than him.

Even after so long, Mr. Bai still hasn't changed.

He is still the same as before, he likes to nag and has a hard mouth but a soft heart.

That's how it was then, and it still is.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Bai Chu chattered for a while, but didn't hear Zhongli's response. He frowned, looked at Zhongli who didn't know what he was thinking, reached out and patted him, and said angrily.

"Why, your wings are stiff and you can't move anymore?"

"No..." Zhongli shrank his neck subconsciously. He was almost 1.9 meters tall, but he was a little submissive at this time. He lowered his head and listened to Bai Chu's teachings.

At the same time, he was kind of funny.

Since then, his power has far surpassed that of Bai Chu... As a result, he is still the same as before, and he can only be nagged by Bai Chu.

Mr. Bai...in some respects, he is really indescribably powerful...

"You told me you were tired..."

After talking for a while, Bai Chu smacked his lips with some unfinished thoughts, picked up the tea cup and moistened his throat. As soon as he put down the teacup, Zhongli poured him another cup of tea.

Seeing him look like a good boy, Bai Chu suddenly smiled.

"Okay, okay, I'm really... too lazy to talk to you."

Bai Chu snorted coldly. He originally wanted to say a few more words, but seeing him like this, he couldn't say any more.

"Remember to eat well in the future. And your clothes, spring has just begun, don't you feel cold wearing so little? You too, Liu Yun too, and finally, A Ping... each one wears less than the other .”

"What, if you're an immortal or a demon, you won't catch a cold? Forget it for today and change it for me tomorrow."

"Um…"

Zhongli originally wanted to fool him. But looking at Bai Chu's unquestionable look, he still sighed and nodded helplessly.

Mr. Bai, you really like to worry about things.

He thought of the old mother in the village who scolded her children. It can't be said that Bai Chu looks very similar to that, it can only be said that they are exactly the same.

It's just that Bai Chu never disciplined Liu Yun.

"I understand, Mr. Bai."

"It's good to know." Bai Chu rubbed his head habitually.

"Okay, it's time to get down to business."

Although he babbled a lot, he still didn't forget the main purpose of coming to Zhongli.

"You are aware of the current situation, right?"

"Yeah." Zhongli nodded and sighed.

"The atmosphere between the demon gods is becoming more and more tense... war is inevitable."

"After all, installing the "Yihu Mechanism" is also preparing for the future. "

"The war between demon gods will probably make this land riddled with holes, and many demon gods will also fall..."

The two fell into silence. Suddenly, Bai Chu stretched out his hand and gently touched his head.

"Zhongli, you can't be soft-hearted."

Bai Chu looked at him and smiled.

"No matter who the enemy is, you must win."

"Only you are the qualified demon god who can protect Liyue."

"Mr. Bai..."

Zhongli was stunned for a moment. He didn't know why, but a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart.

"you…"

"Okay, I'm going back."

Just as he was about to ask something, he saw Bai Chu wave his hand and said with a smile.

"Bring Gui Zhong and A Ping to Liuyun's place tonight, and I'll cook for you."

"Look at how thin you are. Remember to eat well in the future, okay?"

"…Um."

In the end, he still didn't ask and nodded silently.

He believed in Bai Chu, just like before.

No matter what, Bai Chu would never lie to him.
