Chapter 721: You Really Did It (Please Subscribe!!)

"Come to think of it, why haven't I seen your father lately?"

After playing for a while, Hu Tao suddenly remembered something and said to Jiang Xinyu beside her.

"My father?"

Jiang Xinyu tilted her little head as if thinking.

"He's been acting mysterious these past two days, always going out all day and coming back very late at night."

"Last night he even said he was going on a long trip, and then he was gone this morning."

Jiang Xinyu pondered, seemingly trying to recall her father's somewhat strange behavior recently.

Jiang Xinyu's words successfully sparked curiosity among the children around them.

As for her father, both Sister Xiangling and Hu Tao knew him.

How to put it, he had absolutely no sense of being an adult.

Although he could chat with Sister Xiangling's father and the Qixing's consultant.

At the same time, he could also play very happily with us juniors.

Sometimes, Sister Xiangling and Hu Tao could even ignore the fact that he was an elder.

"I remember your father is usually quite leisurely, just like the consultant."

Hu Tao asked Jiang Xinyu in confusion.

In a sense, Jiang Xinyu's father, Jiang Yan, was in Hu Tao's mind an entity on the same level as her own consultant.

Both are elders, but both have some strange quirks.

Take the consultant, for example.

He looks so young, yet carries the weathered air of someone who has lived a very long time.

Moreover, he has absolutely no concept of spending money.

Whatever it is, if he thinks it's worth the price, he won't bargain.

Specifically, Hu Tao has never seen Zhong Li bargain.

And Jiang Xinyu's father, Jiang Yan.

Is a... 啧, how to put it?

An adult with a strong sense of childlike innocence?

It seems there's nothing wrong with describing him that way.

In short, he's just strange.

Occasionally, the aura that slips from him is exactly the same as Consultant Zhong Li's.

Both carry a sense of weight and weathered history.

"Speaking of which, Little Yu's father is clearly a very gentle and kind person, so why does my dad look so respectful towards Little Yu's father..."

Recalling how her own father acted every time he met Jiang Yan, Sister Xiangling on the other side also felt a bit strange.

She felt that Jiang Xinyu's father carried some meaning that wasn't simple.

"Is that so?"

Jiang Xinyu was stunned; she really hadn't realized that point.

Sister Xiangling's father is very respectful towards her own father?

Jiang Xinyu really didn't feel that way.

She only felt that the uncles and aunts who played with her father seemed to have a very special attitude towards her own father.

What exactly that feeling was, Jiang Xinyu couldn't say.

Her own father clearly looks like the kind of person who is very ordinary...

"Yes, yes, sometimes when your father and the consultant stand together, it feels like they've known each other for a long time."

"In their gestures and movements, there's a bit of that weathered feel."

Hu Tao also greatly agreed with what Sister Xiangling said.

The group of little friends chattered there.

Time quickly moved to evening.

Originally, Morax suspected whether Jiang Yan had secretly set up some contingencies in Liyue Harbor.

So he searched for a whole day.

But after a full day passed.

Morax still hadn't found any contingencies left by Jiang Yan.

Then the result from here on can only be one of two possibilities.

One, Jiang Yan deliberately hid his methods.

The other is that Jiang Yan simply didn't leave any contingencies at all.

Originally, Morax was inclined towards the first one.

Because according to the other party's psychology, Morax didn't believe Jiang Yan would just let Liyue go unchecked.

Because he knew Jiang Yan loved Liyue more than anyone.

Even more than Morax himself.
