Years ago, when she was still a child, she hadn't joined the Fatui.
She could only wander the streets of Fontaine, starving, and fighting with the sewer fish for food.
Chased by stray dogs and the Fontaine authorities, she was always filthy, exposed to the elements, and constantly on the run.
She had never felt any warmth.
She only had a small mechanical doll for company.
Until one day, in a Fontaine alley, stray dogs appeared, all vying for her food.
For that piece of bread, she fought desperately against them.
Even with a strong desire to survive, the gods still refused to give her a glance.
The Vision didn't come. Just when she was about to give up struggling, when her heart was filled with despair...
A series of fresh, moonlight rays brushed across her face, saving her battered self.
He immediately picked her up and gently applied herbal medicine to her wounds.
That healing warmth felt like it was just yesterday.
She also slept peacefully for the first time in her life.
The next morning, Sandrone looked at the pristine ~, the unfamiliar ceiling, and the various luxurious furnishings.
She was also slightly stunned.
She scrambled to her feet, wanting to escape to a place she knew.
Jing Chen gently opened the door, a steaming bowl of Qingxin Noodles in his hands.
Sandrone was stunned.
The ice-blue high ponytail, the jade-like face, the crimson eyes, and his clean, white smile.
All of it made Sandrone unable to imagine why such a man would exist in this world.
He was ethereal, his brow filled with gentleness.
Jing Chen didn't say much. Most young girls reacted this way when they first saw him; he was used to it.
Jing Chen handed the Qingxin Noodles to Sandrone. She was slightly taken aback, staring at Jing Chen with a look of surprise and doubt.
Her eyes seemed to be asking, "Is this really for me?!"
Jing Chen smiled faintly and nodded, handing the chopsticks to Sandrone, who took them.
She still looked at Jing Chen with a puzzled expression.
What are these two sticks for?
Sandrone directly threw down the chopsticks and used the most primitive method...
Sandrone shed tears.
Jing Chen was slightly stunned. Does this girl have some sort of cognitive impairment?
How dare she?!
Jing Chen summoned ice and applied it to Sandrone's hand.
Then, he could only demonstrate for her with chopsticks.
Sandrone looked as if she wanted to say something, but then she fell silent, continuing to stare intently at Jing Chen.
Her eyes seemed to say, You're actually able to use these two wooden sticks so skillfully, you're a genius?!
Jing Chen gave a wry smile and didn't say much.
When everything was finished, Jing Chen used a handkerchief to wipe the corners of Sandrone's mouth.
Sandrone lowered her head and realized that everything about her, which had been broken and tattered, had been replaced with brand new robes.
And white~.
She looked up warily at Jing Chen.
Jing Chen scratched his head awkwardly.
"Navia helped you change. Don't worry about it."
Sandrone nodded quietly.
"By the way, I'm Jing Chen. Like dust in the sea, like countless mirrors reflecting the moon. What about you?"
Sandrone was silent for a moment.
"Xiao Nie."
"Xiao Nie?! I've never heard a name like that in Fontaine before."
Sandrone glared at Jing Chen, her expression furious.
Jing Chen was helpless. He'd rather leave child-rearing to Navia.
"Little one, wait here. I'll be right back."
After Jing Chen left, Sandrone stood by the door, listening intently to everything happening outside.
"Navia, could you look after this girl for a while?"
"Of course, I can. What about you?"
"Sigh, I got on your bad side and am now wanted by the Grand Judge.
Furina thinks it's amusing, and then, inexplicably, her other self, Focalors, wants to judge me."
Navia clutched her stomach, bursting with laughter.
"Hahaha, isn't it wonderful to be judged by the Hydro Archon?!"
Seeing Navia still finding amusement in his situation, Jing Chen retorted, annoyed.
"Give me a break. I'm not some kind of deity. I want to leave this blasted Fontaine immediately, right now."
Navia smiled faintly, her expression as elegant as a refined lady, as she looked at Jing Chen.
"Alright, alright. How about I go with you?"
Jing Chen eyed Navia suspiciously. That woman was always teasing him.
And, despite her cheerful, lively exterior, when she got serious, things got really strange.
"Forget it, your ambitions in Fontaine are too grand. I won't be joining you."
"Hey, don't say that. I feel like we have a lot in common."
Jing Chen then led Navia into the room.
Sandrone looked up, gazing at the woman with golden hair and blue eyes.
"Little Nie, this is Auntie Navia. She'll be taking care of you for a while.
Because of certain special reasons, Brother Jing Chen has to leave this already twisted Fontaine."
Navia pouted, speaking with great dissatisfaction.
"Hey, hey, hey!! Am I that old?!"
"Who knows. Old hag."
"You!! Jing Chen!!"
Sandrone looked up at the two of them, those two were at it again, bickering for a long, long time.
Perhaps in this moment, the arguments between Navia and Jing Chen…
…were taking root in her young heart, such that in the future, she too would be like Navia.
Always picking on Jing Chen.
Before she knew it, Sandrone had drifted off to sleep peacefully.
[When she woke up, Jing Chen was no longer beside her, only Navia was there.]
(The above content is purely made up by me. I can't help it; the Fontaine storyline hasn't come out yet!! Besides the Sumeru arc, I should also add a Fontaine arc this time.)
Jing Chen watched Sandrone inexplicably crying and suddenly felt a bit familiar.
He seemed to have seen her somewhere, but couldn't remember where.
He walked over slightly, but Colombina stopped him.
"A-Chen, forget it. Don't cause trouble with this strange person."
"Ah?! Colombina, I'm not causing trouble, I just want to wipe Sandrone's tears."
"Oh, then hurry up."
Jing Chen walked forward directly, and suddenly Sandrone hugged him tightly.
Jing Chen was stunned in place for a moment, at a complete loss.
Colombina pouted, angrily questioning Sandrone.
"Sandrone, what's going on with you!!"
Sandrone didn't answer and still... Moreover, she even became more excessive.
Colombina turned her head, glaring fiercely at Jing Chen.
"Jing Chen!! You!!! What are you still standing there doing?!"
"Ah?! I..."
Jing Chen was also a little bewildered. What was going on with this Sandrone?
Why did she suddenly go crazy and grab him so tightly...
"Sandrone, Sandrone, what, what are you doing?"
"Jing Chen, Qingxin Noodles. Do you remember?!"
"Huh?! Qingxin Noodles?! What Qingxin Noodles?! Wait, Xiao Nie, Sandrone?!"
"You finally remembered?! The knight of Colombina, Your Majesty!!! Your memory is truly amazing.
Amazing enough that I want to..."
Jing Chen hadn't expected Sandrone to say such things.
