Ning Yue: "..."

How come they caught up again?

Ning Yue made no attempt to control her expression; it was a blatant display of "Why are you still haunting me?"

When Ning Lian received it, it deeply wounded his elderly father's heart once again.

Ning Lian was still clutching her clothes, her brows furrowed, and she blinked as she looked at Ning Yue from afar.

I must say, it's actually quite pleasing to the eye.

The shopkeeper watched Ning Yue and Ning Lian with curiosity, clearly wondering what their relationship was.

Shi Yinghan was not surprised that Ning Lian found them so quickly, as if she had expected it beforehand.

He moved forward slightly, blocking half of Ning Yue's body.

He kept the disciple's jade token close to his body, intending to notify the sect in case of any unexpected events.

His demeanor was impeccable and extremely polite, so Chong Ning bowed deeply.

"Senior, this isn't the place to talk. Let's find a quieter place to discuss this further."

This place is located in a bustling market area, with many people coming and going.

They were already attracting attention enough; if something else happened between them and Ning Lian here, it would be difficult to explain.

Ning Lian did not answer him, but simply lowered her eyes and looked at Ning Yue quietly, hoping that Ning Yue would say something.

But Ning Yue's eyes showed no emotion, neither intimacy nor disgust; she looked at him with her clear, bright eyes.

Looking closely, it does resemble him quite a bit...

Ning Lian sighed.

There was no other way; after all, his daughter had no memory of him, and someone of unknown origin and with such a complicated past would definitely arouse her suspicion.

There's no reason why my daughter would have feelings for this stranger.

It's understandable that she wouldn't want to talk to him.

Although he tried to comfort himself, he still couldn't accept it. If there weren't so many people around, he would have burst into tears on the spot.

But we still need to save face.

I can't blame my daughter for not giving me money to buy clothes; I can only blame myself for coming down in such a hurry that I didn't bring anything of value.

He was penniless and felt sorry for himself.

Ning Lian could only glance at Ning Yue with a pout before putting the clothes down.

The moment he let go, a glittering golden object shot out swiftly and landed perfectly beside the shopkeeper.

Ning Lian looked up in surprise at Ning Yue.

Ning Yue slightly raised his chin, pointed to the clothes he was about to put down, and said to the shopkeeper.

"I'll take this one."

"Okay, okay..." The shopkeeper immediately agreed and reached out to hold the spirit stone.

I thought the duck that was already in my hand had flown away, but now it has unexpectedly flown back.

He almost couldn't contain his joy.

Then Ning Yue's cold voice came: "...Give him the change directly."

Shopkeeper: "..."

Ning Yue now understands the prices and can't let anyone take advantage of her anymore, even though she has piled up a mountain of spirit stones like these.

In the end, there were still no ducks.

Shopkeeper: "...Okay."

Upon hearing this, Ning Lian's gloomy mood vanished, and she looked at Ning Yue with joy.

Sure enough! Even without her memories, my daughter still loves him!

Otherwise, would you just buy clothes for a complete stranger? Otherwise, would you just give him the rest of the money?

She really is my biological daughter!

Ning Lian's resentment from a moment ago had completely vanished, and now she felt bubbly with sweetness all over her body.

The clothes my daughter bought, hehe...

Ning Yue took a few steps back, somewhat embarrassed, deciding to stay away from this person.

He quickly changed into the clothes Ning Yue had bought, secretly deciding to take them back to the Immortal Realm.

Just then, the shopkeeper took the change and placed it in Ning Lian's palm.

The god had never seen such a small amount of money in his life, but it was money given to him by his daughter!

The amount may be small, but the sentiment is profound.

Maybe this is all the girl has left! Giving him all her possessions shows she still cares about him.

Ning Lian thought about it again and felt a pang of heartache. If she gave him all the money, what would her daughter have left?

Ning Yue didn't care what he was thinking and followed Shi Yinghan to a secluded corner where there were few people.

She would occasionally look back and see Ning Lian looking at his clothes with great care.

A smile still lingered on her lips.

He laughed for a while, then frowned, looking at the broken silver in his palm, and his face became somewhat worried.

Ning Yue: "..."

Is this the real father?

Ning Yue held his breath and pondered for a long time.

Forget it, let's wait and see. We'll ask the giant python when we have a chance to enter the consciousness space.

Let's see if it knows anything.

Shi Yinghan cut to the chase: "Senior, are you really Junior Sister's father? Do you have any proof?"

Ning Lian pondered for a long time: "...Could we use a blood test to determine kinship?"

Shi Yinghan: "..."

Ning Yue: "...Have you been watching too many palace dramas?"

"That's not reliable either..." Yang Fei grinned at Ning Lian, clearly not expecting him to make such a suggestion.

Upon hearing this, Shi Yinghan said with difficulty.

"That probably won't work. What about something like a token of affection? Or something only you and your junior sister know about?"

As soon as he said it, he felt it was somewhat inappropriate.

After all, some things can be faked.

I realized that this wasn't rigorous and I'm going to rephrase it.

Then Ning Lian chuckled softly, looking at Ning Yue with bright eyes.

"Now that you mention it, there really is such a thing."

Ning Yue was puzzled.

She had no tokens on her, and even less of anything that only the two of them knew.

Ning Yue was quite curious about what he could say.

"On your right shoulder..." Ning Lian spoke very slowly, as if observing Ning Yue and the reactions of those around him.

When Ning Yue heard him mention his right shoulder, his whole body stiffened slightly.

I immediately realized what he was going to say.

"—There's a birthmark shaped like a flame." He finished speaking softly.

Ning Yue narrowed his eyes slightly and lifted his eyelids to look at Ning Lian.

No one knows about her birthmark now, not even in her previous life.

It has never been shown to outsiders.

It can also be guaranteed that absolutely no one saw her birthmark while she was asleep or unconscious.

After all, there are little flowers and grass around.

In other words... Ning Yue stared intently at Ning Lian.

Did he really know she had a flame-shaped birthmark on her shoulder?

Shi Yinghan and the others all looked at Ning Yue with puzzled expressions. They really didn't know that their junior sister had a birthmark on her shoulder.

After all, birthmarks are such a private thing, no one would ask about them.

So now we're asking for her answer.

"Indeed..." Ning Yue began, "I have a birthmark on my right shoulder, but you..."

She frowned, wanting to verify further, but couldn't think of how to ask.

After all, Ning Lian really knew about the birthmark on her shoulder.

Ning Lian noticed her hesitation and gave a reassuring chuckle.

"It's okay, you don't know your birthmark as well as I do."

He spoke in a mysterious way, his expression unfathomable, and his pupils stared quietly at one spot, appearing detached and aloof.

Ning Yue remained still for a moment.

Unexpectedly, Ning Lian broke his composure on his own initiative. Seeing Ning Yue's surprised expression, he smiled with a mixture of excitement and anticipation.

"Wait for Daddy, Daddy's going to show you something!"
