Chapter 440
【Kaeya】: Dragon disaster? It seems the traveler will come in a few years. By the way @【Lumine】, how would you feel if you saw the sect leader in the video? (Funny)
【Lumine】: Don't know. (Spread hands)
【Yae Miko】: Isn't there a feeling... that your husband is at another woman's house? (Yae Miko? Smirk)
【Lumine】: I don't have any intersection with my husband in this video, and obviously it's impossible to carry any memories, so it can only be considered a stranger.
【Osial】: Wait! Damn it! If you say so, wouldn't I be beaten again?! @【Tartaglia】 You come out and be scolded. If it weren't for you letting me out, could I be beaten? (Annoyed)
【Tartaglia】: This matter is my fault, but first of all, I criticize some people who want to retire, playing people around! (Annoyed)
【Zhongli】: Speaking of which, we should blame Heavenly Principles first. If it weren't for Heavenly Principles lowering the erosion, how could I retire in such a way? (Annoyed)
【Sustainer of Heavenly Principles】: Are you guys shifting the blame to each other here?! (Annoyed)
Little Hu Tao, who succeeded as the parlor owner of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, would be very busy from time to time.
With the old parlor owner's time, Gu Chen and Zhongli and the undertakers of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor were not worried about this.
They believed that little Hu Tao would not mess up.
People had many evaluations of little Hu Tao, but they were unanimously recognized in the matter of funeral rites.
The eccentric girl on weekdays is exceptionally steady and solemn in the matter of funeral rites.
The Wangsheng Funeral Parlor is closed during the day and works at night.
Gu Chen and Zhongli's schedule is very normal. During the day, they either leisurely drink tea and play chess in the courtyard, or go out the back door to wander around the street.
"I recently found that you seem to have the habit of not bringing Mora," Gu Chen stared at Zhongli, smiling but not smiling.
Zhongli was embarrassed to be watched, so he had to say hurriedly: "I will pay more attention in the future."
"Is that so? You'd better be," Gu Chen smiled without a word.
Zhongli never took the initiative to talk about his identity, and Gu Chen never talked about his origin.
However, both of them knew it in their hearts.
"Speaking of which, time passes quite quickly," Zhongli changed the subject.
Gu Chen followed the topic and said: "Yes, in a blink of an eye, little Tao is already sixteen years old."
Since succeeding as parlor owner at thirteen, three years have passed.
In these three years, little Hu Tao has grown taller, reaching Gu Chen's shoulder.
Compared with the name of the parlor owner of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, her name as a doggerel poet of the Xiaoxiang Sect spread further.
"Recently, when passing by the General Affairs Office, I heard the guards say that our parlor owner raised the two stone lions at the door as pets," Zhongli smiled.
"The parlor owner's hobby is really... not vulgar," Gu Chen found it difficult to evaluate.
"Calculating the time, that 【Tartaglia】 is going to invite me to dinner," Zhongli looked at Gu Chen and said: "He heard your name and wanted to invite you together."
Gu Chen shook his head: "Forget it, I'm not interested in those."
"Okay, I will convey it," Zhongli nodded.
Zhongli had just left for a while, Hu Tao had woken up, and after eating something to fill her stomach, she said: "Where is the big consultant? Why haven't I seen him recently?"
"Someone invited him to dinner," Gu Chen replied.
"Oh~"
Hu Tao realized, and then said: "Nothing today, second consultant, let's go on an outing!"
"Why do you have this leisure today?" Gu Chen was surprised.
"Oh, people in the world must live happily, let's go, let's go!" Hu Tao hugged Gu Chen's arm and dragged him out.
"We have to bring something for an outing, right?" Gu Chen was helpless.
"What else to bring? Go to Wanmin Restaurant to find Xiangling for a meal, then go to the back of Tianheng Mountain to wander around and collect wind. I, the poet, have a hunch that I will definitely be able to write a famous piece that will be sung for ages this afternoon!" Hu Tao had inexplicable confidence.
Gu Chen didn't understand where this confidence came from, so he had to go with her.
After eating at Wanmin Restaurant, they came to Tianheng Mountain behind Liyue Harbor as Hu Tao arranged.
Climbing high and looking far, watching the clouds roll and relax in the sea of clouds, this scenery makes people feel comfortable.
Gu Chen sat on the ground, Hu Tao walked around with her hands behind her back, muttering something in her mouth, not knowing what she was whispering.
The sun is just right.
Gu Chen yawned, put his hands behind his head, enjoyed this afternoon time, and after a while, his breathing became steady.
On this side, Hu Tao just thought of a poem that made her very satisfied, and ran over excitedly to share it.
"Second consultant?"
She shouted in a low voice, and seeing Gu Chen didn't move, Hu Tao tiptoed closer.
Then she pulled up a dog-tail grass and shook it at Gu Chen's nose tip, Hu Tao's plum-blossom pupils full of smiles.
Gu Chen was tickled awake, stared at Hu Tao and said: "Parlor owner, don't make trouble."
"Hee hee!"
Hu Tao smiled playfully, threw away the dog-tail grass, then lay down beside Gu Chen and stretched: "Oh, rare good weather~"
Gu Chen didn't pay attention to her, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Feeling him asleep, Hu Tao turned over, her elbows on the ground, her palms supporting her cheeks, looking at Gu Chen's face.
Her fair little face was full of distress, and a strange color flashed in her plum-blossom pupils, whispering: "Sixteen years... the appearance has not changed, the consultant really won't get old..."
She sat up with her small face puffed, her chin placed between her knees, her hands around her calves, her expression a bit lonely.
【Kirara】: Done, done! Little Hu Tao discovered that Mr. Gu Chen won't get old! (Ganyu? Annoyed)
【Nilou】: Sixteen years! Little Hu Tao is smart and clever, she remembers everything from her childhood clearly, and Mr. Gu Chen's appearance hasn't changed at all. With her intelligence, she should have guessed something!
【Collei】: If Mr. Gu Chen were an ordinary person, it would be great. How good it would be to live a lifetime with little Hu Tao! (Diona? Irritated)
【Paimon】: Just thinking about it is so regrettable!! (Amber? Don't)
【Hu Tao】: (Hu Tao? Messed up)
――【Wen Duxing】Thanks to the big boss for the monthly ticket! (Hu Tao? Love).
