Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Chapter 1050 Ying and Katsina

After a conversation that was not very smooth, the strangeness between Mavica and Shen He gradually dissipated.

Shen He's tense shoulders relaxed slightly, the alienation in his eyes faded, and he would occasionally say a few more words along with Mavica's words, as if a corner of the ice had quietly melted.

Mavica looked at the little guy who was lying safely in Shen He's arms, and the inexplicable rivalry in her heart had long been replaced by soft curiosity.

She approached cautiously, her voice soft and gentle, and asked, "This little baby is so cute. What's his name?"

When talking about the child in his arms, Shen He's eyes and brows were instantly filled with indelible tenderness, and even his tone became a little lighter, with no trace of his previous restraint.

"Her name is 'Xi' and she is over four months old. Look, isn't she cute?" She turned slightly to allow Mavica to see her more clearly, her eyes full of pride as a godmother.

"Xi?" Mavica smacked her lips together in embarrassment as she tasted the name.

Shao Yun's naming method is really simple, direct and unique.

But looking at the baby's delicate and dainty face, she immediately put that thought behind her and replied with a smile, "It's really adorable... Hello, little baby!"

As she spoke, she leaned over and kissed Xi gently on her soft cheek.

Xi was amused by this sudden intimacy. She giggled and reached out her little hand to touch Mavica's cheek.

The soft little hand rubbed against my face, bringing a warm touch.

Mavica's eyes curved with a smile. She gently held the baby's hand, caressing the delicate skin with her fingertips, her heart softening.

Then, she looked up and caught a glimpse of Shen He's gentle profile as he looked at the child. She felt "very aggrieved and indignant" from the bottom of her heart that Shen He could become Shao Yun's "wife".

Why did she win Shao Yun's heart? If I had known Shao Yun earlier, who would have won the heart might have been the winner!

But as soon as this thought came to her mind, she suppressed it.

No matter how unwilling he felt, since Shao Yun chose Shen He, this was a foregone conclusion.

She, Mavica, is the God of Fire of Nata, so she has to have some sense of propriety and must never do anything that crosses the line.

This is the bottom line she has drawn for herself, and no one can shake it.

Mavica suppressed the remaining awkwardness in her heart, straightened her back, and greeted him in the most normal tone possible: "Being a mother must be very hard."

Hearing this, Shen He looked down at Xi in his arms and thought to himself: "Godmother is also a kind of mother, right?" In this way, this title is not wrong.

So she raised her head and responded frankly and seriously: "It's not hard. It's my honor that Mr. Shao Yun gave me this opportunity."

"Mr. Shao Yun?" Mavica raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard the address.

Not only did he call me by my full name, but he also used honorifics like "Mr." This doesn't sound like the tone between a husband and wife.

Although Mavica felt very confused, she did not think that Shen He was not Shao Yun's wife at all, but instead speculated about Shao Yun's family.

She stared at Shen He's calm face, and the little abacus in her heart started clattering again.

"Strange, is it that Shao Yun's family is the kind of family where the man is strong and the woman is weak?"

She recalled Shao Yun's usual appearance. His calm and reliable aura really made people unconsciously convinced. Even she sometimes felt inferior in front of him.

But on second thought, it didn't seem right. Shao Yun didn't look like a male chauvinist...

Mavica smacked her lips and quickly gave up trying to understand the matter further.

Every family has its own way of living, and it is not her place as an outsider to comment on how couples get along.

"Haha, it seems like you two have a really good relationship." Mavica found the most appropriate adjective to describe the relationship between Shao Yun and Shen He in her eyes.

In her opinion, if someone with a cold personality could show such a gentle expression, they must get along very well with each other.

Shen He didn't think much about it, just thought it was talking about the fate between himself and Shao Yun's family.

"Yes, I am very grateful to Mr. Shao Yun for letting me join this family..." As she said this, she lowered her head to tease Xi in her arms.

"Join?" Mavica caught this word and felt so strange!

Coupled with Shen He's slightly "humble" tone, she became even more worried.

How could a husband and wife talk like that? It was more like... like they were clinging to each other.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in Shao Yun's house, and it even seemed a little abnormal.

Could it be that a man like Shao Yun would actually treat his wife in such a condescending and domineering manner in private?

Thinking of this, Mavica looked at Shen He with a little more sympathy in her eyes.

Yes, if you marry a man who is too imposing, your life will inevitably become cautious, and even your speech will be a bit restrained.

If it were her, she would be able to compete with him in terms of momentum.

However, this little beauty in front of me is probably in trouble...

She put her hand on Shen He's shoulder and said with concern: "Anyway, welcome to Nata! If you have any difficulties in the future, whether in life or in your heart, just come to me."

She secretly made up her mind that if she really saw Shao Yun bullying "Shen He" in the future, she would stand up and persuade him no matter what.

After all, he had fought side by side with Shao Yun, so he should at least give him some face.

Shen He was stunned by her sudden enthusiasm, then nodded slightly.

"Thank you..." She really didn't expect that the God of Fire would be so caring towards her.

Seeing that she still looked somewhat distant, Mavica felt that she had guessed her thoughts, and the desire to worry about her became stronger.

But she had no idea that her good intentions were all based on a huge misunderstanding.

Shen He was not Shao Yun's wife at all. The "humility" and "restraint" in her eyes were just due to her personality and her cherishment of the word "family".

……

Time returns to the present.

Mavica's enthusiasm made Shao Yun's eyelids twitch.

Although Shen He is the child's godmother and a family member, Mavica's enthusiasm is a bit too much.

Shao Yun stepped forward and couldn't help but say, "Mavica, I know you have a hot temper, but this is too..."

Before she could finish her words, Mavica turned around and pointed at Shen He beside her, looking as if it was a matter of course.

"Isn't it normal for me to be more enthusiastic towards your wife?" She blinked, as if to say, "What's so strange about that?"

"My wife?" Shao Yun was stunned on the spot, his eyes widened, and he subconsciously looked at Shen He, then turned back to look at Mavica, his mind full of question marks.

Where does this misunderstanding come from?

Shen He was so frightened by the words "your wife" that his face turned pale. Xi in his arms seemed to feel her nervousness and moved uneasily.

She shook her head quickly, her voice a little flustered.

"Ah? I'm not Mr. Shao Yun's wife! It's really not me, I'm just the child's godmother!"

"Godmother?" Mavica seemed to have been paused, her whole body frozen in place, her fiery red hair hanging beside her cheeks, her eyes full of confusion.

She looked at Shen He, then at Shao Yun, opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything for a long time.

It turns out that in those confusing conversations just now, the "Shao Yun's wife" she thought of was just the child's godmother from beginning to end?

Those speculations about "men are strong and women are weak" and those sympathetic concerns for others became jokes in an instant.

Mavica managed only a single syllable.

"what?"

Shao Yun looked at Mavica's panicked look, raised his hand and patted his forehead helplessly, pointed at Shen He beside him and explained: "This is my child's godmother, Shen He. You have recognized the wrong person."

As he spoke, he glanced around, his eyes swept across the empty workshop door, and he instantly understood the problem.

The scene was Shen He holding his daughter Xi in his arms, and his precious daughter was eating her fist.

Ying, Paimeng, and the newly adopted little dragon "Potato Pancake", who were supposed to be here, were nowhere to be seen.

"No wonder you made a mistake." Shao Yun shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and he lost his temper at Mavica's mistake.

After all, Ying and Paimon have always been restless. Even when they arrived in Nata, they still couldn't change their habit of running around. He had long been accustomed to it.

"Where are Ying and Paimeng? And where is the little dragon 'Potato Pancake' that we just adopted?" Shao Yun asked Shen He.

Shen He tilted his head and recalled, "Just now, Ying said she was getting bored waiting, so she took Paimeng and Xiaolong to the dance square over there."

She couldn't free her hands, so she just pointed towards the other side of the canyon.

Shao Yun looked in the direction she indicated.

"Dance Plaza?" He muttered to himself. "Oh, it's Echo Son's Audition Plaza. Well, they're in a new place, so everything is new to them."

Mavica finally recovered from the shock of "mistaking someone for the wrong person". She looked at the child in Shen He's arms, then at Shao Yun's back as he looked towards the other side of the river, and suddenly she couldn't help laughing out loud.

"So I just talked to the child's godmother for a long time?"

Shao Yun turned around and looked at her with a smile on his face.

"What else do you think? I'm going to go see what those two are doing. I'll bring them back to you later and introduce them to you."

At this moment, Mavica, who had figured out everything, blushed, clasped her hands together in front of Shao Yun, and felt very sorry for having recognized the wrong person.

"Sorry, I thought Miss Shen He was your wife, Shao Yun."

Shao Yun complained, "I remember when I first lived in the House of Burnout, there were three dolls and a family portrait on the bedside table. Are you guys really that honest and dutiful?"

Mavica scratched the back of her head, recalling when she was resting in Shao Yun's room. She didn't see the family photo, but only three dolls on the bedside table.

Maybe these three dolls are too conspicuous...

"Among the three dolls at that time, wasn't there one with silver hair? I even thought that the one with silver hair was your wife, and the one with blonde hair was your daughter." Mavica told the truth.

After hearing these frank words, Shao Yun no longer wanted to argue and just waved his hand.

"Okay, it's no big deal. Shen He is also my family. There's nothing wrong with you welcoming her just now."

Mavica nodded quickly and said, "Oh, okay, okay..."

……

Echo Sons' "Dance Free" Music Plaza.

Although during the war between Natar and the Abyss, the Sons of Echo suffered the highest death toll and the greatest degree of destruction.

But life must go on, as Malani said, people cannot always live in the past, they must look forward.

Of course, to put it in simple terms, the music continues and the dancing continues.

When Ying, Paimon and the little dragon "Potato Pancake" were strolling in the music square, they happened to meet Katsina dancing with the little dragon "Ayu" here.

Katsina is still a child after all, full of energy and boundless energy.

Especially Katsina's street dance. Although she is not the best among the Echo Sons, she is definitely the best among her peers.

When the little ridge dragon "Ayu" saw the little ridge dragon "Potato Pancake", he twisted his silly little body, came to the little dragon "Potato Pancake" and started playing with it, while Paimeng watched from the side.

Ying watched Katsina dancing hip-hop to the music.

After Kazina finished her street dance, she was still a little unskilled in the final moves. After shaking her body twice, she was able to stabilize herself.

However, in the eyes of Ying, a new mother, this child is so cute!

And I hope in my heart that my daughter can be as healthy and lively as her!
