Genshin Impact: Wherever you go, all wear and tear will be eliminated

Mo Ran ignored him and looked quietly towards the north, eagerly waiting.

Alice smiled as if she understood everything, and said slowly, "Son has grown up and has someone he likes! Tell mom, who is it? Which family is the child from? Is he good-looking?"

Mo Ran stared at her intently and replied calmly: "It has nothing to do with you. I won't tell you that she is prettier than you in my heart!"

"Alas, they say that girls' elbows tend to turn outward when they grow up, but I don't think boys are much different!" Alice didn't care that the ground was muddy. She sat down on the ground, resting her elbows on her long legs and supporting her chin with her hands. She was very charming.

"Can the elbow bend inward?" Mo Ran turned his gaze to the sea of ​​flowers, intending to kill her with one sword and bring peace to the world. However, he didn't expect that Alice was no match for a mortal.

The elf lady with a nearly perfect figure had a nonchalant look on her face, as if recalling something, "Mo Ran, you kid! I remember when you were little, you fought with your sister for candy, but you didn't win, and you were scared by a bouncing bomb and had to hide in a corner! Haha."

Alice acted so realistically, with sparkling eyes. "I really miss those days when we were together as a family, happy and together. It's not like now. Your father left and no one knows where he is. I traveled all over Teyvat to find you, leaving little Klee all alone in Mondstadt!"

"Fortunately, I finally found you now. This must be God's arrangement! It allows us mother and son to be reunited."

Mo Ran's eyes dimmed, but he still reiterated, word by word, his tone getting heavier and heavier, "I am not your son!"

Alice covered her beautiful face with her hands. It was hard to tell whether she was crying or laughing. Her shoulders kept shaking as she sobbed, "It's not your fault. You were very young at the time, only about four years old. It was normal for you to not remember what happened after such a big blow."

Mo Ran frowned and was shocked. What Alice said was indeed right. He really had no impression of anything before he was four years old. It was possible that he was too young and had no memory.

But Mo Ran's memory is far beyond that of ordinary people. He remembers countless details from the orphanage to the present, big and small. Mo Ran can't tell whether it is true or false.

"No, it shouldn't be possible. I even picked my own name. How could it be possible...name...Mo Ran, Mo Ran...why?" Mo Ran fell into confusion.

He had a slight headache. Why did he do that? Why did this name appear in his blank mind? Mo Ran couldn't figure it out. Everything in front of him was a little unclear.

Zhongli, who had been watching, saw his old friend's painful expression and looked unhappy. He said in a deep voice, "Ms. Alice, I hope you can give a reasonable explanation."

Mo Ran was anxious and exhaled several times, "I'm fine, don't worry."

Alice stretched out her hands and gently rubbed her temples, not knowing what she was thinking.

Mo Ran sat down on the ground and said loudly: "Ms. Alice...is what you just said true?"

"Of course, it's not true." Alice stuck out her tongue and whispered, "I'm kidding!"

Mo Ran stared at her, hoping to see a hint of inappropriateness, even a hint, but there was none.

Bang!

The ground around where Mo Ran was sitting was cracked, as if covered with spider webs, and the friendship between the two, which was once quite good, was on the verge of breaking.

"Haha, that's a very funny joke." Although he said that, after Mo Ran stood up, his face was calm and there was no smile at all.

Alice took out a bouncing bomb that was twice as big as the normal one and said, "Yeah, it's funny."

Alice held the bomb in both hands, bowed slightly and said, "I was wrong just now. I shouldn't have made such a joke. This bouncing bomb won't explode. You, you take it!"

The originally clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds and heavy rain fell. After being drenched in the rain, Mo Ran calmed down a little. Alice didn't mean it in the first place and she didn't know Mo Ran's background, so there was nothing wrong with her.

Mo Ran accepted the same apology from both the mother and daughter, and said calmly, "I accepted it. We don't owe each other anything. I'm leaving first."

A man in black clothes grew wings on his back and flew back to Liyue Harbor. He stood outside the door. Mo Ran adjusted his state and opened the door.

Shen He was standing behind the door, waiting to see her master. Although she was still a child, Shen He was after all a disciple of an immortal family. Her ability to sense auras far exceeded that of her peers. She sensed her master's return early, so she went to wait behind the door.

Mo Ran smiled, gently scratched the little girl's nose, and said, "I'll go cook." Then he walked towards the kitchen.

Shen He looked outside the door where no one was, closed it, and did not ask where the lady in red had gone. It was not important to her. As long as her master came back, that was enough.

…………

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed. Mo Ran had not closed his business during these days and had returned to his daily routine of setting up the stall from dawn to dusk. He tried to use his busy schedule to forget the large bouncing bomb that he had thrown in the storage space and everything related to it, and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the world of cooking.

Until today, an unusual customer came to the hotel. His real identity was Gao Rutian, and it was Morax who came under the alias Zhongli.

Mo Ran was in the kitchen, stirring the food over a high fire. The food was steaming, but his voice was emotionless as he asked, "She's leaving?"

Zhongli nodded, "She said that you should go there in person. She didn't make it clear that day. She does have some clues about your parents."

Mo Ran's dark pupils regained some clarity. He exhaled and said calmly, "Wait until I finish serving all the customers in this room. After all, they have paid, so I cannot breach the contract."

After serving all the regular customers in the room, Mo Ran hung up the closing sign, took Shen He's hand, and went to the dock of the Port of a Hundred Ships with Mr. Zhongli.

A medium-sized ship that was obviously not from Teyvat was quietly docked at the dock, like a wanderer returning to the harbor of his family. An elf lady in a red dress and a red hat was also standing there quietly, facing the afterglow of the sunset, and holding a porcelain doll in a black dress.

Alice took a few steps towards the person, but her shadow on the ground seemed to lengthen, as if it was getting farther and farther away and could not be approached.

Mo Ran stopped and didn't intend to get too close. He asked calmly, "What do you want from me?"

"It's not a big deal. It's just a fact that can't be changed. I thought it would be better to tell you in person before I leave."

Facing the setting sun, Alice's eyes were moist. She ran closer to the man in black, who still did not move. "Where are my parents? Do you really know?"

Alice smiled with tears in her eyes, and her shadows on the ground overlapped. She whispered, "I know where your mother is and who she is. I'll tell you now!"

Alice moved closer to Mo Ran, opened her arms and hugged him gently. She couldn't hold back her tears any longer, and they poured down like the rain that day. She said something that broke Mo Ran's heart, just like that day, "I was lying!"

Mo Ran's pupils trembled, and he raised his hand to hug her, but when he stretched out his hand, he caught nothing. The ship a dozen steps away was leaving at full speed. Alice waved at the stern and said goodbye silently.

Mo Ran activated the elemental power and was about to give chase, but Morax beside him calmed him down and did not allow any elemental power to emerge.

Mo Ran said in a trembling voice: "Let me go!"

"I'm sorry, but I have a contract with Ms. Alice and I cannot violate it." Zhongli, or Morax, had a little ripple in his eyes at this time, but he was helpless.

Unexpectedly, the God of Contracts would one day be bound by the contract and hinder his friends. It is really difficult to explain the cause and effect of things in the world.

Mo Ran was shocked by a powerful aura that was imperceptible to others and was unable to move. He watched the ship leave. Its shadow was getting longer and longer towards the sea, but he could no longer reach it.

It was not until the moon was bright and the stars were sparse that Morax "let go" of Mo Ran. The latter felt a little dazed, bewildered and in a trance. For a moment, he had everything in his heart, but also like something was missing. He felt empty and painful.

"Shen He." Mo Ran called softly and instructed: "Stay with Mr. Zhongli, I will be back soon."

Shen He didn't want his master to worry, so he nodded and followed the young man with sword-like eyebrows and phoenix eyes. He watched his master wave goodbye and leave silently.
