Genshin Impact: Ningguang is still a pitiful little thing, I invested in her.

Fang Xun couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

A sensible and well-behaved child, who clearly did nothing wrong...

It's so pitiful that they have to suffer such pain.

He gently stroked Shen He's little head, then said softly, "Little girl, did you dream about the cave?"

"That's all in the past. Don't dwell on it. You have to look forward."

Upon hearing Fang Xun's words, Shen He could no longer control his emotions.

Tears fell silently again, and she cried her heart out.

"Brother Fang Xun, I really, really want to forget that memory,"

"But I just can't do it. I dreamt I was in that cave..."

"Watching my father leave without looking back, my heart felt like it was being cut by a knife,"

"What should I do to sever ties with my past?"

Seeing Shen He crying uncontrollably, Fang Xun remained silent for a long time.

He could sense that Shen He was trapped in sad memories.

Although Shen He behaved like any other child during the day.

But in the dead of night,

Those past events will keep resurfacing and hurting her.

Memory is a terrible thing; it can heal a person, or it can destroy them.

Shen He's father went astray and lost his mind because he was caught up in memories of his lover.

Now, Shen He is also suffering greatly because of his memories.

After a moment of silence, Fang Xun handed the jade comb with emerald inlay to Shen He.

“Little girl, if you really want to say goodbye to your past, comb your hair three times with this comb.”

"After that, you will be able to sever ties with your past."

Fang Xun paused for a moment, then continued, "However, I must tell you in advance that once you use this jade comb, some changes will occur within you."

Fang Xun gently patted Shen He's shoulder, then placed the jade comb in her hand.

As for Shen He's choice, he will not interfere.

Shen He gazed at the jade comb in his hand, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Finally, she picked up the jade comb and combed her hair three times.

The first time combing hair,

Shen He's jet-black hair was instantly covered with a layer of silver frost.

It's like it's covered with a thin layer of snow.

The second time I combed my hair, half of it had turned white.

After combing his hair for the third time, Shen He's hair turned completely white, like winter snow.

Shen He could feel the changes within herself, but she didn't show much surprise.

Because Fang Xun had already informed her beforehand, before she even started combing her hair.

She could feel the sadness in her heart quickly fade away.

It was as if an invisible, intangible thread had severed her connection with that home.

Shen He looked at Fang Xun and said softly, "Brother Fang Xun, thank you. My mood has improved a lot, and it's largely thanks to this jade comb."

"I will keep this jade comb with me; it gives me strength."

"Of course, the more important reason is that this is a gift from Brother Fang Xun, and I want to cherish it."

Seeing the hazy mist in Shen He's eyes dissipate, revealing a genuine smile,

Fang Xun also breathed a slight sigh of relief.

As long as the little girl is no longer bothered by that matter, that's fine.

At this moment, a system notification sounded in Fang Xun's mind.

"Ding! Shen He's favorability level has been increased from level 2 to level 3."

"Congratulations, host, you have obtained an Entangled Bond and an additional Red String."

Chapter 104 The future Tianquan Star, now a little secretary

Fang Xun checked the effect of the red string.

It was discovered that wearing this red rope can increase the damage of ice-attribute characters.

As a grown man, Fang Xun naturally couldn't wear such a thing.

He looked at Shen He, who was an ice-attribute character.

This red string is something we can prepare for her.

Because in the game's setting, Shen He needs to rely on the red rope to suppress the evil spirits and murderous intent.

However, Shen He's condition is not obvious at the moment, so Fang Xun plans to put the red rope away first.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Xun opened the card pool and performed a single draw.

A beam of purple light descended from the sky.

When the light faded, it revealed a four-star skill called Star Return.

This is Keqing, known as the "King of Gua Sha" (a type of scalping technique), using her elemental combat skill.

Throw a lightning-shaped javelin to any location. Releasing it again will teleport you to the javelin's location and unleash an area-of-effect lightning attack.

Keqing's character design is quite good; she has long legs in black stockings and exudes a strong sense of arrogance.

But unfortunately, his skills are a little bit lacking.

Players have a love-hate relationship with Keqing.

Fang Xun only hoped that after unlocking this skill, he wouldn't have to resort to gua sha like Master Ke Qing.

After exiting the interface, Fang Xun told Shen He to rest more, and then left the room with Qi Qi.

Along the way, Qiqi tilted her head, as if deep in thought.

Those large, peach-colored eyes blinked, filled with confusion.

Fang Xun naturally noticed this. He smiled, squatted down, looked at Qi Qi, and asked softly, "Qi Qi, what's wrong?"

Qiqi looked at Fang Xun with a blank expression: "Why... Shen He clearly had long black hair, but in the blink of an eye it turned white?"

"Could this be... the 'white hair overnight' described in medical books?"

"In that case... Qiqi wants to pick some herbs for Shenhe..."

Upon hearing Qi Qi's words, Fang Xun couldn't help but laugh.

The little girl didn't know that the jade comb was made of celestial stone and had unique effects.

So Jiaona naively thought Shen He was sick.

Seeing Qiqi's concerned expression, Fang Xun couldn't help but reach out and pinch the little girl's cheek: "Qiqi, Shen He isn't sick,"

"She has successfully said goodbye to her past self; you could say Shen He has grown up,"

Qiqi blinked her big eyes, as if trying hard to accept the information Fang Xun was giving her.

"Growing up... gray hair..."

"Qiqi has gray hair too... Ningguang has gray hair too... We've all grown up..."

Upon hearing Xiao Qiqi's answer, Fang Xun truly felt that the little girl was innocent and naive.

He nodded: "Yes, yes, you and Ningguang have both grown."

Over the past few days, Fang Xun has also been watching the adorable children grow up.

Qiqi's memory is also getting better and better, and her daily flexibility exercises have made her body no different from that of an ordinary person.

As for Ningguang, she is becoming increasingly organized and meticulous in handling matters.

Even Gan Yu was astonished when she saw Ning Guang's plan.

They also claimed that if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed that Ningguang had created those plans.

Fang Xun did not interfere with Ningguang's growth trajectory; he hoped that Ningguang would grow up freely.

But as things stand now, aside from a personality that differs from the future Lord Tianquan,

It seems that everything else is developing in the direction of the condensation of light from Tianquan Star.

Ningguang will probably become Tianquan Star in the future, right?

Pulling his thoughts back, Fang Xun paused briefly at the doorway of Ningguang's room.

He noticed that the lights were still on in Ningguang's room.

What's wrong with the little girl?

Still not resting so late?

If you stay up late at night, you might not grow tall.

Fang Xun tried gently knocking on the door to let Ningguang go to bed.

It turned out the door wasn't closed at all; it opened with a light knock.

He saw Ningguang asleep, slumped over the table.

On the table is a newly drafted investment plan.

The girl must have been working late and was so tired that she fell asleep on her desk.

Xiao Ningguang is a real workaholic, and she's extremely demanding of herself.
