// Childe x Zhongli Short Oneshots // Genshin Impact

[Memories.]

'Xiansheng~' Childe hugs Zhongli from the back,

'Ajax... I'm cooking..' Zhongli sighs but with a smile,

'I don't care... I came back from work.. Shouldn't you worry about me more than the food?' Childe grins,

'Haha... You're very funny, go take a seat, dinner will be served.' Zhongli said,

Childe slides into a seat, Zhongli carefully puts two bowls of Slow-Cooked Bamboo Soup Noodles on the table.

'Looks nice!' Childe smiles,

'Thank you, it took 4 hours to boil the fresh ham flavour into the soup.' Zhongli takes a seat too, and picks up a pair of chopsticks, Childe did the same,

'Are you proud of me for learning how to use chopsticks?' Childe chuckles,

'Ajax... You've been saying that ever since you learned how to use chopsticks a month ago...'

'Hehe... I know! I'm just so happy because you were so happy the first time!' 

'It certainly is true, but I do not like to hear the same thing over and over again..' Zhongli sighs,

'It's nothing... I love you so much, and I love to see you happy.' Childe giggles,

'....Okay..' Zhongli said,

'Where is my "I love you too"?' 

'Haha... I love you too, more than words could tell.' Zhongli gets up and kisses Childe on the cheek. Childe pouts a little.

'What are you pouting about? I gave you a kiss.' Zhongli rolls his eyes playfully, Childe then grabs Zhongli by the back of his hand and kisses him.

_______________

Childe and Zhongli were walking around Liyue Harbor, it's what the couple does every day. It was pretty much a tradition for them. 

Zhongli was looking around, trying to find some good looking objects to buy. He spotted a shop that caught his eye. It was a flower shop, it was decorated by fresh bouquets of Silk flowers, Glaze lilies, and even some flowers from Mondstadt, like Windwheel Asters and Cecilia. 

'Good day, sir! Are you interested in buying a fine bouquet of these flowers?' the boss lady greeted,

'Ah... Thank you, but I can't afford-' 

'We'll take one of your finest bouquets miss!' Childe cuts off Zhongli,

'Okay then! I'll bring one right away!' The lady smiled,

'Ajax... You didn't have to...' 

'Shh.... I had to, you looked like you'd really like one, so.. might as well..' Childe shrugs,

'I... Thank you... You know, Ajax... You really are a good person.. How can I ever repay you?' Zhongli blushes a little,

'You don't need to repay me, you already are by the relationship we're in.' Childe smiles,

'And, here you go sir, that will be 5000 mora!'The boss lady hands Zhongli the bouquet, while Childe pays her,

'Thank you, please shop again!' The boss waves them goodbye,

'Zhongli, please wait here, I need to attend a quick meet-up with someone.' Childe says, exiting the restaurant for a quick while,

'Hey there ~' a strange man approached Zhongli,

'Sorry, I'm here with someone.' Zhongli looks away, the stranger doesn't seemto be listening.. He grabs Zhongli's waist,
