Original God, starting from the sister against the brother

[This chapter is a two-in-one chapter]

Fontainebleau, Roudeng Harbor.

Qianzhi stood on the deck of the ship, silently looking at the scene of Fontainebleau, the Kingdom of Water, in front of her.

Behind her, a series of crisp footsteps gradually sounded. Qianzhi turned around and saw that it was the lady who lived in the [Luxury Warehouse].

"There was a thunderstorm last night, and it only stopped in the second half of the night. Can't you rest a little longer?"

"No."

Qianzhi shook her head and said, "The drifting thunder reminds me of the scenery of my hometown in the past. Growing up in Inazuma, I have long been accustomed to falling asleep to the sound of thunder."

"Right."

Rosalin took a few steps forward and came to Qianzhi's side.

He raised his head proudly and looked down at the scene in Fontainebleau.

In the Soft Light Harbor, several harbor officials kept staring at the Fatui ship out of the corner of their eyes.

However, their surveillance actions were not very clever.

At a glance, Rosalin spotted their traces among the crowd.

Even a female navigator who didn't have time to look away had her prying eyes met Rosalyn's gaze.

A moment, just a glance.

The special patrol officer who was disguised as a port pilot broke out in a cold sweat on his back.

"Ah."

Rosaline smiled contemptuously, then stopped paying attention to these ants and instead looked at Qianzhi beside her.

This little girl is quite interesting.

Just like myself, he left his hometown at a young age and went to a distant foreign country to pursue his own ideas.

The ship changed its route several times and made additional stops in Mondstadt and Xumi.

She didn't make any noise, but calmly found a chair and sat down in the most lively place in each country, where she sat all day.

According to her, she observes the costumes of people from different countries, senses the atmosphere there, and stores her own clothing design inspiration from the culture of each country.

Rosalin looked at the buttons on her chest and couldn't help but recall a scene when she was sailing on the sea.

This little girl really has skillful hands.

...

Probably a few days ago.

The ship was approaching Fontaine and winter was approaching.

So Rosalin dug out her winter clothes and planned to change into them in order to meet with the executive from Fontaine.

but...

I don't know if it's because the clothes shrunk or something else...

Rosalin had just changed into her winter clothes, and the clothes began to make a "wailing" sound at the chest area.

With just a few slight movements, the line broke.

But this is on the sea after all, not on the ground.

It is really unrealistic to customize another piece of clothing.

As for the sewing...

Although Rosalin had learned this skill, she didn't know how long it had been since she last used it.

If it is poorly repaired, you might as well continue wearing this out-of-season piece of clothing.

But just to try, Rosalyn called in a subordinate.

Ask her if there is a professional tailor on board.

Coincidentally, this subordinate was the one who brought Qianzhi on board.

She had some dealings with Chiori's father and had heard about Chiori learning tailoring skills.

Therefore, she introduced Chizhi to Rosaline.

It turns out that this little girl with divine eyes has excellent craftsmanship.

With her skillful adjustments, the dress was not only repaired, but also adjusted accordingly to Rosalyn's body shape.

For example, the larger size frees up space in the chest, keeping it comfortable rather than tight.

Rosalyn was very pleased with this.

After all, there is no woman who doesn’t like clothes that fit well and look good.

After paying Chiori a generous reward, Rosaline even thought of keeping her by her side.

However, this idea was decisively rejected by Qianzhi.

Rosalin didn't have much regret about this, after all, she was just a tailor.

He asked his subordinates to take care of Chiori Ichiban during the rest of their journey, and this encounter came to an end.

...

Soft Light Harbor.

Rosalin glanced at Chizhi beside her and said.

"Your journey's end is approaching."

“Fontaine is indeed a country that pursues fashion and art, but it is still harsh and rejecting of foreign art.”

"Can your understanding and ideas gain a foothold in this country?"

"I am actually quite interested in this."

Qianzhi's confidence was not shaken by Rosaline's words.

Instead, he crossed his arms, looked up at the graceful Rosaline beside him, and said.

"Want to make a bet? If my [Qianzhiwu] becomes big in Fontaine, how about you be my model?"

"Oh?"

"You're so brave to ask me to be a model."

"But if the reputation of your shop really reaches my ears, maybe... I'll consider it."

After saying that, Rosaline shifted her attention away from Qianzhi.

Just because.

A conspicuous figure appeared in the Soft Light Harbor.

Chao Ke, the lieutenant of the Fatui's fourth executive officer.

After discovering the ship Rosaline was on, Chao Ke had no intention of keeping a low profile.

He immediately knelt down, then jumped up and, in full view of everyone, jumped onto the deck of Rosaline's ship.

The storm caused by the landing made Qianzhi lose her balance, and she staggered for a while before she could stand still.

Chao Ke's attention was first attracted by the two big thunders for a moment, and then he noticed Qianzhi beside the "big thunder".

"It shouldn't be like this. How could these two people have any intersection..."

Although he had doubts in his heart, Chao Ke knew that this was not the time to ask questions.

Anyway, Qianzhi will stay in Fontaine later, so it won’t be too late to ask then.

Chao Ke looked at Rosaline, recalling his sister's instructions in his mind.

"Be spirited and don't lose face."

So, in front of Rosaline, Chao Ke started to attack.

"Rosaline, I welcome you!"

"You are an executive officer of the Fatui, setting out from Mondstadt and drifting all the way to Fontaine."

“Thank you for your hard work along the way!”

"My superior, Lord [Alechino], has prepared a banquet for you at the Buffati Mansion. Please move over."

Rosalin frowned and looked at Chao Ke with some displeasure.

"Why are you shouting so loudly?"

"Also, you can change your words. This kind of words doesn't suit you."

Chao Ke scratched his head awkwardly. Could it be that he didn't look energetic enough and was a little embarrassed?

Then, Chao Ke switched back to normal speech and started talking to Rosaline.

...

Arriving at Fontaine.

Qianzhi carried her luggage and said goodbye to everyone.

Rosalin did not bring her subordinates with her, and chose to follow Chao Ke alone to the Buffati Mansion.

Of course, Chao Ke and Rosaline were inevitably followed along the way.

As for these following rats, Chao Ke, a caring citizen, rejected the freezing plan proposed by another caring citizen, Rosaline, and instead chose to use physical methods.

To help these cops fall into a baby-like sleep.

Looking at these cops who fell asleep one by one, Chao Ke couldn't help but sigh.

It's pretty good. I can sleep with pay during work hours and get an injury allowance at the end.

In fact, some of the "sleeping" cops are regular customers of the Jiaziwei Restaurant.

It is estimated that Jiaziwei Restaurant will be able to get a share of the final injury compensation.

Well, just consider it as the fee for my sleeping aid.

Fontaine’s new ASMR sleep aid master, Chao Ke, is well versed in the technique of falling asleep in seconds.

After arriving at the Buffati Mansion, Chao Ke stopped thinking about it and pushed open the door, inviting Rosaline in.

Inside the mansion, the children at home also took a welcoming gesture at the door to welcome their father's colleagues.

Rosaline was still arrogant, looking down at the children, walking through the welcoming team with an arrogant gait, and looking at the servant Alechino who was standing at the end of the team.

"Welcome to Hearth House, Rosalyn."

"I am the children's [father], Alechino."

.....

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

After talking to Rosaline for a few words, Alechino brought her into the office.

It seems that there is an important matter to be negotiated.

And outside the office, in the lobby of the mansion.

He waved to Ke, letting the older children go first, and continued to work on his own tasks.

The rest are some younger children.

Chao Ke let them stay in the hall and found a place to sit down.

Then, he picked out a children's book from the bookshelf nearby, opened it, and told the story to the children.

In the past, this work was mostly done by the children's [father] Alechino.

Of course, even Arlecchino couldn't guarantee that the time would be right every day.

There are always a few days in a month when this time is occupied by other important matters.

However, even if Alechino himself could not attend, someone else would be arranged to take his place, so that the children never missed this lesson.

after all.

Just like the fairy tale book in Chao Ke's hand, it becomes thinner and thinner as the story is told, and the children's childhood also slowly passes away.

The children of Hearth House grow up very fast.

Correspondingly, the days they can retain their innocence are much shorter than those of children outside.

Therefore, we should cherish the moments when children still have innocence.

After all, in the blink of an eye, some of them turned into little foxes like Linny.

But, at least...

The good things they enjoyed in their childhood are the same as those enjoyed by the kids outside.

It is not like the previous generation of [Servant] Kugavina, who was surrounded by adapted brainwashing fairy tales.

Chao Ke looked at the bookshelves in the Buffati Mansion.

At least, there are still many storybooks in [The Hearth House]. Perhaps, there are still many moments of childhood left for children.

.....

When a story comes to an end in Chao Ke's mouth.

The door to Alechino's office was also opened from the inside.

Rosalin and Arlecino walked out one after another.

It’s just that one of these two men always has an arrogant look on his face, and the other is the head of intelligence.

It was difficult for Chao Ke to read the information on their faces to judge whether the conversation was harmonious.

Chao Ke simply stopped thinking about it and continued telling the children the fairy tales from the book.

Rosalin paused when she saw this scene.

She is lonely at heart, and she doesn't hate the feeling of having children around her...

Even, there is some yearning.

Arlecino and Chao Ke, who were intelligence officers, were extremely perceptive in capturing other people's expressions.

Rosalin's expression changed slightly, and Chao Ke and Alecino roughly guessed her thoughts.

Alechino gave Chao Ke a look, and Chao Ke understood what his sister meant.

Today, I will tell the children an extra story.

And Alechino also brought up the topic at the right time, giving Rosaline a reason to stay here.

"There's still some time until lunch. Would you like some tea, Rosalyn?"

"It just so happens that a batch of new tea from Chenyu Valley has just arrived in the mansion."

Rosalin paused, but did not refuse.

"Oh? Then let me know. How is your taste in selecting tea at the Bufadi Mansion?"

Having said that, Rosalin naturally sat on the sofa in the lobby of the mansion.

Facing him were the children sitting around Chao Ke, listening to him telling stories.

Rosalin lifted her right leg, revealing a touch of warm whiteness, and looked at the scene in front of her with interest.

And Alechino was brewing the new tea from Chenyu Valley.

Finally, Alechino picked up a pot of fine tea and poured out two cups of fragrant tea.

Alechino handed Rosalin a cup of fragrant tea, and then sat next to Rosalin.

The two sipped the fragrant tea, looked at the children in front of them, and listened to the fairy tales told by Chao Ke.

The children's attention was all focused on Chao Ke.

Because what Chao Ke told was their fairy tale.

But Rosalin's attention was focused on these children.

Perhaps these children are the fairy tales in her heart.

And Alechino sipped the tea silently.

She didn't have anyone in particular to focus on, because everyone in front of her was someone she wanted to protect and cherish.

Rosalyn took a sip of tea elegantly and asked her colleague beside her.

"You get to spend time with children every day. How do you feel about your job?"

Alechino thought for a moment and replied.

"not bad."

"Oh? Just good? I thought you would have a higher opinion."

Alechino smiled and said.

"Children, not all are as well-behaved as they are now."

“As [the family] grows, and as age increases.”

"The kids will start to quarrel and start to scheme against each other."

"It's not easy to manage so many rebellious children."

Rosalyn nodded, "Indeed."

"but...."

"With these kids around, you won't feel lonely at least, right?"

"I don't deny this."

Arecino said.

“With the company of these [family members], although my work is busy, I haven’t felt lonely for a long time.”

There was a hint of envy in Rosalin's eyes, but it was quickly concealed.

Afterwards, Chao Ke finished telling the story to the children.

Rosalin, following Arlecino's guidance, enjoyed lunch at the Buffati Mansion before leaving.
