Genshin Impact: The Sage's Disciple Doesn't Want Fame

Yes, it was abduction.

There's no way around it, Qiqi is just too adorable, perfectly embodying the image of a daughter in Ji Ming's mind.

"Snapped……"

Two small, icy hands patted his face. Ji Ming quickly snapped back to reality and asked, "Qiqi?"

Qiqi blinked: "Put me down."

I won't let go, and then Qiqi pinches my cheek.

Ji Ming muttered, "You won't even let me hug you?"

"I don't want Ji Ming to hug me for now..."

Yes, you've hurt my feelings, Qiqi.

The little zombie girl obediently put Qiqi down. She didn't run away the moment she touched the ground. Instead, she looked up at Ji Ming in a daze and didn't say anything.

Ji Ming laughed and took out a lollipop: "Want one?"

Qiqi stretched out her little hand: "Eat."

Let's just assume Ji Ming is a good person for now. I fed him before; he's like a big dog, so he should be fine.

Because she's a little zombie girl, Qiqi's movements are always stiff. Peeling glass wrappers requires a high degree of finger dexterity, which is quite difficult for her.

Ji Ming peeled off the glass wrapper for Qi Qi, then stuffed the candy directly into the little zombie girl's mouth, revealing a strange smile: "Is it delicious?"

Feeding the little zombie girl is such a wonderful thing.

Seeing Ji Ming's strange smile, Qi Qi quietly took half a step back and whispered, "I can't taste it..."

Ji Ming's smile froze instantly. He had forgotten one thing: the little zombie girl had no sense of taste. Even if she ate something very bitter, she wouldn't react. She ate only to maintain her "previous" habits.

Carrying Qiqi's small bamboo basket, Ji Ming changed the subject, saying, "So, Qiqi, are you planning to go back to Liyue Harbor now?"

"Qiqi doesn't want to go back now."

"So what are you planning to do? There are still so many valuable medicinal herbs in the basket. If you don't deliver them to Bubulu in time, Baizhu will dock your pay."

Bai Zhu won't deduct her salary because she doesn't receive a salary to begin with.

With a lollipop in her mouth, Qiqi said in a flat tone, "Ji Ming, eat it."

These words seemed nonsensical, but Ji Ming knew that Qi Qi wanted him to eat the precious medicinal herbs in the small bamboo basket.

Wow, it's extremely rare to see a little zombie girl speaking to him in a commanding tone.

Ji Ming asked curiously, "Why eat them? If they're all eaten, how will Qi Qi explain it to Bai Zhu?"

“It’s alright, Qiqi can go to Jueyun Mountain and Aozang Mountain to collect more,” Qiqi thought for a moment and continued, “Ji Ming likes to eat medicinal herbs…”

Was it because of their first encounter? At that time, Ji Ming was penniless and had nothing else when he met the little angel Qi Qi; both of them only had medicinal herbs on them.

Even now, although Ji Ming still gets used to the bitter taste of various medicinal herbs, he would never consume them frequently. Wanmintang has a young cook, and he also has Mora on him, so he should still enjoy himself.

Regardless, Ji Ming was still very touched. Qi Qi was a little angel, and he really wanted her to be his daughter.

Ji Ming squatted down and explained, "Qiqi, actually I don't like taking medicinal herbs."

Qiqi ate candy and looked at Ji Ming without saying a word.

"I was very poor back then, so poor that I could only go to the outskirts to dig up medicinal herbs to eat. That's when I ran into Qiqi who was out gathering herbs... Qiqi, do you still remember? You haven't forgotten, have you?"

Qi Qi shook her head: "No, Qi Qi remembers Ji Ming."

Ji Ming felt relieved and continued, "Qi Qi gave me a lot of medicinal herbs, which I ate all of them. The herbs were very bitter, and I didn't like them at all."

"Ji Ming still ate it."

"Because I was very hungry at the time."

Qi Qi hesitated for a moment, then held the lollipop to Ji Ming's lips and said, "Give it to Ji Ming, he's not hungry."

Looking at the noticeably shrunken candy and the water stains remaining on it, Ji Ming remained silent for a moment before forcing a dry laugh and saying, "I'm not hungry now."

"Qiqi thinks you're hungry."

That sounds familiar. Didn't Qiqi say the same thing back then?

Ji Ming was momentarily dazed, and taking advantage of his distraction, Qi Qi shoved the lollipop directly into his mouth, which he instinctively bit into.

"Kacha."

Hearing the sound of the candy breaking, Qiqi was clearly taken aback, and her tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction: "Lollipops are delicious, but you can't just bite them into pieces..."

Ji Ming smiled: "I'm sorry, I promise I won't bite it next time."

Qiqi didn't dwell on that topic, and instead asked, "Are you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry anymore, my stomach is full."

"Ji Ming is lying."

How could a lollipop possibly fill her stomach? She's just slow to react and lacks common sense, but she's not ignorant of common sense. Ji Ming is indeed a bad person.

It's better than Walnut; at least they give you a lollipop when they try to lure you in.

Looking at Ji Ming squatting in front of her, Qi Qi reached out and poked his face, saying seriously, "Ji Ming owes me a lollipop."

Ji Ming nodded repeatedly: "Okay, come visit Brother Ji Ming's house next time. Brother Ji Ming's house has lots of lollipops."

Qi Qi stepped back, his face full of vigilance, and remained silent.

Clutching his chest, Ji Ming looked distressed. Could he be a human trafficker? They weren't strangers, so why was Qi Qi so wary of him?

"You can go, but Qiqi doesn't want to see Hu Tao..."

Ji Ming was overjoyed: "No problem, I'll have Bai Tang guard the gate. As long as Comrade Hu Tao dares to come, I'll just let Bai Tang go and drive her away."

Qiqi nodded and stretched out her little hand.

What does this mean, little zombie girl?

Qiqi's answer was concise and to the point: "Hold hands."

Oh no, I'm about to be conquered by the little zombie girl.

Ji Ming held Qi Qi's small hand; it was icy cold, a kind of coldness that didn't belong to the living.

The reason she became an immortal is because Qiqi died in an accident hundreds of years ago. At that time, immortals fought a great battle with demons, and the aftermath of the battle affected Qiqi, leaving the little girl seriously injured and on the verge of death.

Feeling guilty, the immortal used a secret technique to turn Qiqi into an immortal who resembled a little zombie.

What is Qiqi's real name? Nobody knows. Qiqi herself doesn't know either. After becoming a little zombie girl, she even becomes very forgetful and needs to use a small notebook to help her remember things.

No sense of taste, no memory, no friends.

Bai Zhu was very kind to Qi Qi, but there was some ulterior motive involved. However, Ji Ming had no right to interfere, so he could only occasionally sneak around and criticize this doctor and owner of Bu Bu Lu.

A ruthless capitalist, a pitiful little zombie girl—Ji Ming must save Qi Qi from this predicament.

"Qiqi, be my daughter."

Qi Qi stood there stunned, looked up at Ji Ming, and showed a confused expression.

The little zombie girl is absolutely amazing and astonishing.

No, what kind of good person would immediately ask to adopt someone as their daughter? Ji Ming is definitely not normal. He looks a bit dull and stupid. He's probably not a bad person, but he's just really slow.

Better than a walnut, but dumber.

"Ji Ming wants to be a father?"

Realizing he had said something stupid in front of the little girl, Ji Ming felt a little embarrassed, but his thick skin quickly became apparent. He held Qi Qi's little hand and chuckled a few times.

"No, it's just that I really like Qiqi."

"If I like Qiqi... does liking Qiqi mean I have to be Qiqi's father?"

What a sharp question! Ji Ming felt like he was about to be crushed. It didn't matter if he lost face in front of girls his own age, since he was thick-skinned. But now he was in front of Qi Qi, who was the perfect daughter in his heart.

How can a father lose face in front of his daughter?

Ji Ming took a deep breath: "That's right, that's how it is."

"Why doesn't Ji Ming have a child of his own?"

Wait a minute, does the little zombie girl even know what she's saying? She's supposed to have little common sense, supposed to be forgetful, how could she know these things?

Did you teach Atractylodes macrocephala?

Ji Ming was heartbroken, his face filled with indignation and agitation. He felt that Qi Qi had been corrupted by Bai Shu, how could she know such things at such a young age?

Although Qiqi's actual age is old enough to be his ancestor, a daughter will always be a daughter.

Ji Ming said with a serious expression, "Men can't have children."

Qi Qi tilted her head: "Then let's find a woman."

"These kinds of decisions can't be made lightly."

"You can't just find any daughter..."

I was rejected and I'm heartbroken.

But being rejected is normal, right? Ji Ming was just messing around. He definitely likes the little zombie girl, just like a father likes his daughter.
