Chapter 587: The Lively Sea Lantern Festival (1) (Subscribe!!)

~3 min read 560 words

The day of the Sea Lantern Festival.

This is a festival that has remained constant in Liyue for several thousand years.

It is not only used to commemorate those who perished because of war back then.

It is also a celebration of the birth of a new year.

Ganyu woke up early. Today she needed to finish the remaining unfinished work together with Guizhong, and then go to Qingce Village with Jiang Yan.

Not long after Ganyu left, Jiang Yan also got out of bed.

Jiang Xinyu had a day off today and didn't go to school, so she was currently sitting at home tidying up.

She knew that every time the Sea Lantern Festival came, her dad and her moms would take her to another place to celebrate the holiday.

Together with those uncles and aunties who got along well with her dad and moms.

After a simple breakfast, while Jiang Yan and the others were still tidying up, a sudden knock came from outside the door.

"Xiaoyu, go open the door."

Jiang Yan said to Jiang Xinyu outside while washing up in the washroom.

"Okay!"

Jiang Xinyu came to the door and opened it.

A young man carrying a birdcage stood at the door.

"Uncle Zhong!"

Seeing who it was, Jiang Xinyu broke into a smile and called out sweetly.

"Mm, Xinyu is dressed very prettily today."

Zhong Li looked at Jiang Xinyu's outfit for the day and nodded with a smile.

"Hehehe, after all, it's the Sea Lantern Festival, so I have to dress up a bit prettier."

"Uncle Zhong, come in and sit down first. Dad is still washing up."

"Alright."

Zhong Li replied, swung the birdcage in his hand, and walked into the house.

"Oh, Mo... Old Zhong, you're here this early today?"

Jiang Yan walked out of the washroom, and seeing the visitor, the name Morax almost slipped out of his mouth.

But suddenly remembering that Jiang Xinyu was also here, Jiang Yan forcibly swallowed the words that had reached his lips.

There was no helping it. Having called this old fellow Morax for several thousand years, suddenly being asked to switch and call him Zhong Li was really not easy to get used to in a short while.

"Hehe, 01 mm, I had nothing to do today, so I came a bit earlier."

Zhong Li chuckled lightly, and the hwamei in the birdcage before him let out a pleasant chirp.

"Oh, a new face. Where did you get it?"

Jiang Yan looked at the hwamei in Zhong Li's birdcage and said with a face full of surprise.

This old fellow's eye was indeed sharp.

A hwamei of this caliber was truly not common.

"Hmph, when it comes to connoisseurship, I do have my own unique insight."

Zhong Li said with a smile, as if showing off.

Jiang Yan rubbed his chin, seemingly observing.

Jiang Yan appeared to be observing.

In reality, he was thinking about how to use a certain—

Reasonable—

Legitimate—

Way that the old fellow couldn't refuse—

To snatch the hwamei before him.

"Don't even think about it. There's no chance of that."

Zhong Li's calm voice rang out. Jiang Yan looked up and saw Zhong Li watching him with an amused gaze.

As companions of several thousand years, how could Zhong Li not know what Jiang Yan was thinking.

Heh.
