Chapter 376

Back then, he, as a father, had said he would go see her about once a week.

But it had been delayed because of the Dark Sea and the war.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan immediately flew to Mondstadt.

As for saving the world bubble... ===== CHAPTER 799 =====

It had long been forgotten by Jiang Yan to the ends of the earth; anyway, it was still a long way from destruction, and now nothing was more important than his little Klee.

"Perhaps I'm a bit anxious." The Chicken and Rabbit Talismans lit up at the same time, and he flew past quickly.

"Wow, it's a shooting star!"

…………

Not long after, the outline of Mondstadt gradually appeared in Jiang Yan's vision.

On the way, Jiang Yan kept thinking about how he should explain it to Klee; after all, it was a war, and telling the truth to a small child was ultimately not very good.

Walking on the road, he passed several stalls.

"Hmm... should I buy something?"

Hearing Jiang Yan's self-talk, the boss immediately responded.

"Sir, take a look. Whether it's for someone else or for yourself, the taste is top-notch."

Looking at Jiang Yan's attire, which didn't belong to Mondstadt, the boss saw at a glance that this was someone visiting or looking for someone.

"Good, then I'll take some."

"Oh? Mr. Jiang? You've come to see Klee."

Jiang Yan turned his head upon hearing the familiar voice.

"Kaeya, there was a war in Liyue during this time, so I couldn't get away. I said I'd see Klee once a week, but..."

Speaking, Jiang Yan gave a wry smile; although it was sudden, he had given his word.

"Oh, I see."

Kaeya glanced at the boss calmly, and after Jiang Yan had taken the things he bought, he walked along with him.

"Phew, Mr. Jiang, you've finally come. If you hadn't, Klee would have taken her Jumpty Dumpty to save you."

Hearing this, Jiang Yan was stunned.

Huh? Klee?

Save me?

What could happen to me?

It must be said, Klee is truly fearless!

Watching Jiang Yan stunned, Kaeya sighed and slowly told Jiang Yan the story.

"When the war broke out in Liyue, we wanted to hide it from Klee, but it lasted too long, and she overheard us during one of our conversations."

Kaeya shook his head helplessly and continued.

"At that time, we were talking about Snezhnaya, Natlan, and Fontaine attacking Liyue together, and Klee heard it and insisted on going to Liyue to save you."

Ah...

Alice, Alice! You're bold, but your daughter is even bolder! That's a war!

"Then, then where is Klee now?"

Speaking of this, Kaeya paused for a rare moment.

"Uh, Klee, Klee has been in solitary confinement for the past few days."

Now that he knew Jiang Yan was Klee's father and was right in front of him, saying it so bluntly—oh, your daughter, she's been locked up.

This... didn't seem very appropriate.

"As expected."

Jiang Yan rubbed his forehead; how to put it, it was somewhat unexpected yet not unexpected.

"Uh, Mr. Jiang, are you okay?"

"Ah, ah, I'm fine, you continue."

"I heard that Liyue won a great victory, so we let Klee out, but she didn't believe it. She insisted that we were lying to her, and that you hadn't come to see her because you were dead."

"..."

What a "filial daughter"!

"Then, she insisted on seeing your corpse one last time and then bombing Snezhnaya, Natlan, and Fontaine."

"I, I'll be damned!"

Jiang Yan didn't expect that Klee, this little witch, was truly fearless; she dared to bomb gods with just a Jumpty Dumpty.

Jiang Yan only felt that she was hard to manage—harder to manage than Jiang Xinyu was when she was little!

"And then, she was locked up again?"

"Ah..."

Facing Jiang Yan's direct questioning, Kaeya nodded in affirmation.

The two arrived in front of the solitary confinement room.

"Phew, Klee, Daddy is alive and well, I'm not dead."

While Jiang Yan was speaking, the person Kaeya had sent to get the key had already returned. ===== CHAPTER 800 =====

*Creak*~

The door to the solitary confinement room was opened.

"Klee, Daddy... where is she?"

Jiang Yan looked at the empty room and was stunned. Wasn't she supposed to be here? Where is she? Where is my big daughter?

"Mr. Jiang, what's wrong? Ahhh~ where is Klee!"

Apparently, Kaeya didn't know where Klee had gone either.

"Hmm? Kaeya, are you... Mr. Jiang, you've finally come, Klee is..."

He wanted to question why Kaeya was shouting for no reason, but changed his question the moment he saw Jiang Yan.

"What's wrong?"

Diluc, seeing that their expressions were wrong, also stepped forward.

"!! Where is Klee?"

"So, you don't know either."

The only hope was shattered, and Jiang Yan hurriedly released his cosmic perception to search.

Not long after.

Jiang Yan opened his eyes sharply.

"Phew, fortunately, I found her."

Hearing this news, the two breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she was found, it was fine.

Afterward, Jiang Yan flew out of the window to find Klee.

At this moment, Klee was walking on the snowy mountain with the thought of seeing Jiang Yan one last time.

"Ugh, the wind is so strong, so cold~"

At this moment, Klee was struggling against the wind and snow, constantly moving forward.

"Hey, it's a Seelie!"

Klee ran over excitedly.

"Seelie, Seelie, so warm."

Hot and cold, Klee felt a long-lost warmth and became a bit sleepy.

After trekking over mountains and rivers to such a high snowy mountain, Klee had long since run out of strength.

Feeling the unusual warmth, she fell into a deep sleep.

………… ===== CHAPTER 801 =====

Jiang Yan felt a bit panicked; that was a snowy mountain, how could she just fall asleep like that?

"Seelie???"

In Jiang Yan's cosmic perception, that Seelie was swaying and floating, and soon drifted away from Klee.

Seeing this, Jiang Yan's speed became even faster.

"Klee, Klee!"

Soon, Jiang Yan finally found Klee. Seeing her like this, he felt truly heartbroken.

"Ugh, Daddy, I've seen you, am I going to die too?"

"Sigh, she's all muddled from sleep."

Jiang Yan smiled and shook his head. Fortunately, no accident happened, otherwise, he would have been heartbroken to death.

"Alright, Klee, let's go home."

"Ugh, ho...me."

Soon, Mondstadt.

"Mr. Jiang!"

Kaeya walked over the moment he saw Jiang Yan.

"Phew, fortunately, Klee is fine."

Jiang Yan nodded in agreement. Yes, fortunately, she was fine.

In her sleep, Klee was firmly clutching Jiang Yan's sleeve, as if afraid he would run away.

Helpless, Jiang Yan had to sit by Klee's bed.

Klee slept, and Jiang Yan watched.

Afterward, he sighed.

"Sigh, Ningguang and the others were also very cute when they were little, it's just that they grew up too fast."

Saying this, Jiang Yan made a very regretful expression.

He got angry just thinking about it.

You say Ningguang and the others are human, so growing up fast is unavoidable, and that's fine, but why is Nahida starting to grow taller too?

She didn't grow at all for hundreds of years in the game.

Could it be because those Sumeru scholars didn't feed her for those hundreds of years?

He couldn't understand, and Jiang Yan didn't understand the principle, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

His gaze returned to Klee.

He prayed inwardly.

Elves have long lifespans; he hoped Klee would stay in this state for a long time, as he still wanted to "rua" (pet) her for a while.
