Genshin Impact: One Hundred Confessions? Just a System Task

Yi Chen: "..."

He wasn't comforted at all!

He now felt that the calm before the storm was probably the most terrifying thing!

Ayaka's look and sudden departure were definitely not that simple!

The fox in front of him clearly wouldn't let him off easily.

He was surrounded by wolves in front and tigers behind, with his poor "boyfriend" in the middle.

Yi Chen felt that his life had never been so "exciting".

Chapter 33 Spring has arrived.

Thinking of this, Yi Chen exerted all his strength and finally pulled his arm out of her "sweet" confinement!

He took two steps back, as if trying to get rid of something clingy, and subconsciously blew on the part of his body that had just been hugged, as if it were covered in fox fur.

He tried to put on a serious face and started breathing out!

"Ha—Yae no Miko! You bastard!"

He addressed him by his first name, attempting to emphasize the seriousness of the matter.

"What exactly do you want?!"

"I'm telling you! Stop doing this! If you keep fooling around like this... I might elbow you!"

However, his appearance was all bark and no bite, all bluster and bravado.

In Yae no Miko's eyes, it was just like a cub that had been provoked, its fur standing on end, trying to scare away the enemy with its cute but fierce cries. It had no intimidating power at all, but was so cute that people wanted to bully it even more.

Yae no Miko gently covered her lips, and with elegant cat-like steps, approached Yi Chen step by step.

"that's it?"

She asked with a smile, stopping only when she was very close to Yichen, and looked up at him slightly.

"Don't you have anything else to say to your girlfriend whom you just 'confirmed your relationship' with?"

Her breath almost touched Yichen's face, and that unique fragrance enveloped him once again.

Yi Chen was forced to take another step back, but his back almost hit a pillar.

Just as he was about to step aside, Yae no Miko suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist!

Her fingers were cold and strong, giving him no chance to break free.

With a slight effort, Yi Chen was easily pulled back in front of her, and the distance between them was even closer than before!

Yae no Miko held his wrist, while her other hand rested seemingly gently on his forearm, creating a slightly restraining yet intimate gesture.

She raised her head, her fox-like eyes, capable of seeing through people's hearts, staring directly into the depths of Yi Chen's somewhat flustered gaze. A seductive curve played on her lips, her voice soft and gentle, yet carrying an undeniable weight:

"Hmm? Boyfriend~"

"You really... have nothing to say to the Divine Child?"

"For example... the second time... 'that'?"

Her gaze seemed to have hooks, and every word she spoke seemed to be gently tapping at Yi Chen's psychological defenses.

The air became ambiguous and dangerous again, as if the unfinished "that" in her words was some unspoken, sweet secret.

Yi Chen's heart started pounding uncontrollably again, and he felt a sensation of both ice and fire on his wrist where she was holding it.

He wanted to break free, but he was afraid that making too big a move would attract more onlookers.

He wanted to refute, but he was repeatedly defeated by the other party's powerful aura and bizarre logic.

A second confession… is it going to happen here?! Under these circumstances, where I'm being semi-forced?!

Seeing Yae no Miko's "I won't let go until you tell me" attitude, Yi Chen felt like he was suffocating.

His wrist was gripped by her icy fingers, and his nose was filled with her sweet, cloying scent that smelled like both cherry blossoms and fried tofu, making him dizzy.

Those purple fox eyes were inches away, filled with undisguised mockery and something deeper, making his heart race and making him want to run away.

He gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and almost in despair, spoke rapidly in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz:

"I...I like you..."

Before he could finish speaking, he got goosebumps.

Yae no Miko tilted her head slightly, as if she hadn't heard clearly, but the curve of her lips deepened.

"Hmm—? What did you say? I didn't hear you, sister?"

Yi Chen's cheeks flushed red, his neck stiffened, and he raised his voice slightly, but it sounded more like he was muttering.

"...I like...I like you!"

"That's right."

Yae no Miko finally released her grip on his wrist, but her icy fingertips moved upwards, almost teasingly, and gently touched Yi Chen's burning cheek, the touch soft yet mischievous.

Yi Chen froze, almost jumping up.

Seeing his expression of being on high alert, filled with shame and indignation yet unable to resist, Yae no Miko's interest grew even stronger.

She chuckled softly, her voice both gentle and alluring:

Why are you so shy?

She leaned closer, her breath almost brushing against his ear, and asked in a low voice, as if sharing a secret, in a tone only the two of them could hear:

"Aren't you Mondstadt's most affectionate person? Or is it...?"

She paused deliberately, her gaze sweeping over his flushed face and slightly trembling eyelashes, her red lips almost touching his earlobe, her breath sweet as orchids:

"You really have feelings for your sister?"

Yi Chen felt that his rationality had been completely blown away by those words!

Mondstadt's most affectionate?!

Kaeya, you bastard...

I'll remember this grudge!

An elbow strike is necessary! A hard elbow strike!

"Who said that! That's not true!"

Yi Chen leaned back abruptly, trying to avoid the chilling aura, but almost lost his balance and hurriedly grabbed a pillar next to him.

"Those are just nicknames they made up! They have nothing to do with me! As for you... as for you..."

He hesitated for a long time, looking at Yae no Miko's amused expression that seemed to say, "I'll just watch you make this up," and couldn't bring himself to say anything more.

Yi Chen got stuck, his face flushed, standing there, caught in a dilemma.

Yae no Miko had had enough of his embarrassed and adorable appearance, and finally straightened up with satisfaction. She covered her lips with her wide sleeve and let out a series of light laughs like the sound of silver bells in the wind.

"Hehehe... Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore."

"For your second confession, I'd reluctantly say you've passed muster, right?"

"However, feelings need to be nurtured~ Just saying it isn't enough, my dear boyfriend~"

She deliberately repeated the title that sent chills down Yi Chen's spine, and seeing his almost splitting expression, she smiled and turned around, her skirt tracing an elegant arc.

"Remember to try the snacks! See you next time!"

As Yae Shinko walked back to the shrine, a playful smile played on her lips, her fingertips seemingly still carrying the scalding heat and delicate touch of when she had touched Yi Chen's cheek.

She strolled slowly, recalling Yichen's humiliated and helpless state just now, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on but dared not hiss. The smile in her eyes deepened.

This is completely different from the "most affectionate man in Mondstadt" described in her intelligence report, who could confess his love to the acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius a hundred times without batting an eye.

She had seen that intelligence report long ago, and at the time she just found it absurd and funny.

However, she had already secretly planned it in her heart when she first heard about it:

If this kid ever dares to use this tactic to provoke me, I'll readily agree and see how he gets out of this mess. That scene will definitely be very interesting.

I just didn't expect... reality would be a hundred times more fun than I imagined.

He doesn't have the ease and skill of a sea king at all.

He was clearly a naive young man who had been pushed to the forefront and was flustered. Every time he blushed, every time he stuttered, and every time he looked away, he was so real and cute. His reactions were even more exciting than those of the male protagonists in the light novels she treasured.

As Yae no Miko savored Yi Chen's embarrassed and humiliated appearance, as if he were a respectable young man being teased, she felt a strange, unfamiliar warmth quietly rise to her heart, spreading slightly through her blood and bringing a subtle, tingling restlessness.

It's not like the thrill of a successful scheme, nor the pleasure of watching a play; the feeling is... more private, more... tantalizing.

A cool spring breeze happened to pass by, stirring up a few early-blooming petals from the cherry trees by the roadside, gently brushing against her flushed cheeks, bringing a touch of cool comfort.

Yae no Miko subconsciously raised her hand, her fingertips lightly touching her cheek that was being blown by the wind. She felt that the temperature below seemed slightly higher than usual, and then she looked up as if she had sensed something, looking at both sides of the road.

The cherry tree branches were already covered with tiny buds, and a few impatient ones had already opened their pink and white petals, looking delicate and vibrant in the spring sunshine.

So, before we knew it, spring had arrived.

Chapter 34 Is it delicious?

After the Eighth Divine Child left, Yi Chen breathed a sigh of relief and slumped down as if his bones had been removed, a layer of cold sweat breaking out on his back.

This wicked woman... she's definitely not the type he can handle.

Every word he said was enigmatic.

What to do next?

As Yichen was pondering this with a troubled expression, his stomach growled softly.

To be honest, he's been hit by a series of events since he woke up this morning, and he hasn't had breakfast yet.

The reason why my heart was racing, my head was spinning, and my reactions were slow when I was facing Yae no Miko must have been due to low blood sugar!

Forget it, now that things have come to this, let’s eat first.

Yi Chen sighed and resignedly opened the exquisite food box.

Inside, several pieces of golden, crispy, and fragrant fried tofu were neatly arranged.

He picked up a piece and took a bite. The outer skin was slightly crispy, and the inside was soaked with sweet and savory broth. It was indeed delicious.

He ate while continuing to ponder a solution, as if he had forgotten something important...

I'm a little concerned, but the fried tofu is so delicious that I can't quite remember it right now...

Never mind, if I can't remember, then forget it.

These fried tofu puffs are quite delicious...

Although Yae no Miko has a terrible personality, she does have good taste…

"Is it delicious, Mr. Yichen?"

Just then, a clear, calm voice, devoid of any emotional fluctuation, yet capable of causing the surrounding air temperature to drop several degrees, quietly rang out from behind him.

Yi Chen's chewing motion froze instantly, as if the blood in his body had solidified at that moment.

Ling Hua! It's Ling Hua!!!

He finally remembered what he had forgotten!

When Yae no Miko caused that scene just now, Ling Hua... she saw it all!!!

Yi Chen stiffly turned his head, like a rusty wind-up doll, in fits and starts.

Suddenly, Ayaka Kamisato appeared silently on the veranda, her face still bearing the flawless, dignified smile of Princess White Heron. Sunlight shone on her silvery-white hair, as if coating it with a holy halo.

But why... why does Yichen feel so terrified even though Linghua is smiling?

Ayaka's gaze swept lightly over the half-eaten fried tofu in his hand, and the conspicuous food box belonging to Narukami Taisha. Her smile seemed to become even more gentle and charming, and her voice became even softer:

"Since Mr. Yichen has already enjoyed the 'breakfast of love' specially sent by Lord Gongsi, I suppose there's no need for the simple meals I prepared to taint your palate."

She nodded slightly, her posture elegant and impeccable, yet she uttered words that sent chills down Yi Chen's spine.

"You seem to have rested enough, so why don't we... go to the dojo to practice swordsmanship now?"
