Chapter 445

【Furina】: Our sect leader's words must have deep meaning, ponder them well! (Funny)

【Caribert】: I understand! Thank you, sect leader! (Dehya? Send flowers)

【Gu Chen】: Just understand. May you face your heart, understand yourself, and then be able to respond. No matter what choice it is, I hope you will not be ashamed of yourself.

【Venti】: Suddenly drank a mouthful of chicken soup. Wait, I know what happened! No, the brilliance on the sect leader's body has deepened by another layer! (Paimon? Surprised)

【Kaeya】: No, what are you guys talking about that I don't understand?

【Sangonomiya Kokomi】: It seems this Miss Caribert has a story? (Sangonomiya Kokomi? Praying)

【Caribert】: Hmm... there is a story, that, that, everyone watch the video, I will bring good news to everyone later. (Collei? I can do it)

【Nilou】: Analyzed what Mr. Gu Chen and Caribert said, it feels like a love story~

【Collei】: I have this feeling too!

【Hu Tao】: Thought it was talking about me, the parlor owner, scared me. (Relieved)

【Kaeya】: Wait, you don't think you're fine, right? (Funny)

【Xingqiu】: @【Hu Tao】 With the Tai Xuan Jing in hand, the suggestion here is to rush into the Gu Mansion and press the sect leader! (Funny)

【Zhongli】: Although it is abstract, since it is the parlor owner's words, it is not surprising to do such a thing. After all, there is a trend of being spoiled by Venti. (Nodding)

【Venti】: Why did a black pot suddenly appear on my back? (Annoyed)

【Zhongli】: (Zhongli? Dragon King crooked mouth)

On the day Hu Tao turned eighteen.

Axiu looked at her daughter helplessly and said: "Little Tao, do you really not want to marry, or are you dissatisfied with those people I picked for you?"

Hu Tao waved her hand and said: "Oh, these things depend on fate, fate!"

"Little Tao, you don't have someone in your heart, do you?" Axiu asked.

Hu Tao's expression stalled, then she said as if nothing happened: "How is that possible!"

As a mother, how could Axiu not know what Hu Tao was thinking.

After sighing, she didn't pursue the question, just sighed: "My body is weak, I don't know if I can see the day you get married..."

Hu Tao was silent.

Perhaps, it was destined to let her mother be disappointed.

"Parlor owner, we are back."

Zhongli's voice appeared at the outer door, and he walked in with Gu Chen.

"Picked some gifts for the parlor owner," Gu Chen smiled and put the gifts aside, then said: "Thinking about it, the day the parlor owner becomes an adult is special. Should we invite some friends and relatives?"

"Hmm! It's a big event! Must commemorate it well!" Hu Tao nodded repeatedly when she heard this.

"Second consultant, let's go, find Xingqiu and Xiangling!"

Gu Chen was dragged away by Hu Tao just like that.

Eighteen means that a person has become an adult, means that they have become an adult, many things can be decided by themselves, and they are responsible for themselves.

On this night, Hu Tao's friends all came to celebrate for her.

Xiangling, who had mastered cooking, made a table full of delicacies as the chef.

At the dinner table.

Xingqiu sighed and said: "Recently, the family has been urging marriage very hard. Do you have any good ways?"

"Just need to escape into the mountains to practice like me," Chongyun didn't seem to have any concerns in this regard.

"Huh? Are you all being urged to marry? My dad doesn't seem to urge me," Xiangling scratched her head.

Speaking of this, taking advantage of the friends' gathering, Axiu, as an elder, didn't come, and Hu Tao also complained.

Gu Chen and Zhongli were considered half elders, enjoying the food quietly on the side, while watching Guoba eat and eat.

"Sympathy for each other!" Xingqiu sighed.

"Yes!" Hu Tao agreed deeply.

Xingqiu picked up a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp, then sighed: "Another year older, thinking of our youth, it seems like it was just yesterday."

Xiangling nodded: "Yes, without realizing it, Parlor Owner Hu is already an adult."

Speaking of time, it is often accompanied by a bit of sadness.

"We are all about eighteen, why start mourning youth?" Hu Tao widened her eyes.

"Look at me, compensate for a cup!" Xingqiu patted Chongyun on the back of the head.

"Why did you pat me?!" Chongyun was indignant.

"Handy, handy."

Xingqiu laughed, then clipped a piece of Jueyun Chili for Chongyun.

"You guy, for today's sake..." Chongyun curled his lips.

Chongyun is usually normal, but once he eats too much spicy or angry food, he will become another person.

In Gu Chen's words, that is social cow.

After a playful dinner.

Zhongli sent them home.

Hu Tao's smile gradually faded, her face carrying the flush of wine.

Everyone was gone, she didn't stop cup after cup.

"Parlor owner, although you are already an adult, drinking like this is clearly not good," Gu Chen reminded.

Hu Tao looked at him and said: "If I could not grow up, that would be good."

Gu Chen was stunned, then said: "Why?"

"If I don't grow up, Mom won't get old, and Grandpa won't die," Hu Tao sighed on the table.

Miss Grandpa?

Gu Chen sighed and said: "People will always grow up."

"Yes..."

Hu Tao responded, and gradually became confused while lying on the table.

Gu Chen waited for a while before realizing that Hu Tao had fallen asleep.

Smiling helplessly, he reached out and picked her up.

Just about to take her back to the bedroom, Hu Tao, with her face buried in Gu Chen's arms, seemed to be talking in her sleep.

"If I don't grow up... can I... accompany the consultant longer..."

Gu Chen's footsteps paused, looking at the bright moon in the sky for a long time without words.

After sighing imperceptibly, Gu Chen carried Hu Tao back to the bedroom.

Carefully placing Hu Tao on the bed, taking off her Qiankun Tai Gua hat and putting it aside, taking off her shoes and socks, Gu Chen lifted the quilt and covered her.

Hu Tao in her sleep was also a bit restless, kicking the quilt with her feet.

Thinking that she was a Pyro Vision holder and wouldn't fear the cold at night, Gu Chen had to lift the quilt aside, seeing her twisting and putting herself in a comfortable position and then sleeping soundly, Gu Chen stepped out of the bedroom door.

Under the bright moonlight.

Gu Chen walked to the courtyard, and Zhongli happened to return.

After looking at each other, Zhongli said: "The parlor owner is asleep?"

"Hmm," Gu Chen nodded, then said: "Perhaps, I should leave the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor."

Zhongli was startled, then his expression was a bit complicated: "I'm afraid it's useless."

Gu Chen rubbed his eyebrows and said: "Useless... it seems I realized it too late."

Zhongli sighed: "It's a pity, after all, there is fate but no points."

"Yes, accompany me for a walk."

"Okay."

Bedroom.

Hu Tao hugged the quilt tightly, her face buried deep in it, and only the moonlight through the window shone on the quilt to see the tear stains.

【Xingqiu】: Done, why did I suddenly mention this in the video? Once mentioned, it makes Hu Tao associate herself with Mr. Gu Chen! (Annoyed)

【Chongyun】: You mentioned this, it was originally reasonable, but Mr. Gu Chen is too special. (Tighnari? Scared)

【Nilou】: Hu Tao is crying... she actually knows her feelings best...

【Collei】: Finally clearly realized what 【Those who see through death fear death】 means. (Hydro Slime? Crying 4.3 crying)

【Caribert】: Is it this feeling? I can understand it better...

【Hu Tao】: Would I, the parlor owner, be like this? (Dazed)
