The clock has to go back to a few days ago.

At that time, the sunlight shone through the mottled leaves, casting fine shadows on the ground.

"Yaoyao, can you...say it again to Dad? I don't think I understood it very well just now."

Ruan Tianli's slightly weathered face was filled with confusion and doubt at this moment. His eyes were staring straight at his daughter Ruan Yaoyao in front of him, as if he wanted to get a clearer and more definite answer from her.

He raised his right hand cautiously and timidly, as at a loss as a child who had done something wrong.

"Snapped!"

After hearing what her father said, Ruan Yaoyao suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart. She couldn't help but put her hand on her forehead, looking helpless.

I secretly complained in my heart: Oh my God! How could there be such a slow-witted father! It seems that my slow-witted brain must have been inherited from him!

Thinking of this, her originally exquisite face was filled with deep helplessness.

At the same time, a figure was standing by the window not far away.

Lin Guochang stood there quietly, holding a cigarette skillfully in his right hand, taking a puff from time to time, and then leisurely blowing out smoke rings.

The smoke rings rose slowly in the air, like mysterious symbols, seeming to contain some unspeakable meaning.

I only heard him slowly explain: "Yaoyao means that Lin Yi's behavior has been a little abnormal recently."

"Something's wrong?"

Ruan Tianli was stunned at first, then blurted out without thinking:

"When will that guy ever be normal?"

As soon as he said this, Ruan Yaoyao glared at him coquettishly and shouted in dissatisfaction:

"Dad, I'm discussing something with you seriously! Can't you be serious?"

When Ruan Tianli saw his daughter's angry look, he scratched his head embarrassedly.

The rough big hand scratched the hair randomly a few times, with a bit of naivety.

"Hey, okay, okay, Dad will listen carefully. Then tell me, what's wrong with that kid Lin Yi?"

His eyes were full of curiosity and anticipation, like a child eager to solve a puzzle.

"emmmmm..."

Ruan Yaoyao seemed to be asked. She lowered her head, and her long hair fell down like a waterfall, covering half of her face.

She pondered for a moment, a hint of confusion in her eyes.

"I can't really tell. His behavior is the same as usual."

Her voice was soft and hesitant, as if she was trying to remember every detail.

"Then why do you feel something is wrong with him?" Ruan Tianli asked, frowning slightly, his face full of confusion.

"that is……"

Ruan Yaoyao scratched her cheek, and her slender fingers gently stroked her fair cheek, as if searching for a certain word in her head.

"By feeling?"

She said uncertainly, with a hint of hesitation and confusion in her eyes.

Ruan Tianli was stunned for a moment, a helpless expression on his face.

"..."

What a good feeling! He muttered to himself, this reason is really ridiculous.

But seeing his daughter's serious look, he couldn't refute her and could only sigh helplessly.

"Yaoyao, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

Ruan Tianli spoke slowly, with a hint of fatigue in his voice.

So many things have happened in China recently. As one of the Four Heavenly Kings of China, it should not have been right for him to leave his post for personal reasons.

His heart was filled with guilt and anxiety, and he knew that he shouldered a heavy responsibility.

When Ruan Yaoyao called him in the middle of the night and spoke anxiously about Lin Yi, Ruan Tianli thought that Lin Yi had bullied Ruan Yaoyao.

This scared him a lot, and anger instantly ignited in his heart.

He immediately pulled Lin Guochang, who was also working overtime, over with him. He was extremely anxious all the way, thinking that if Lin Yi really didn't know what was good for him and bullied Ruan Yaoyao, he would let this brat have a taste of the mixed doubles from his biological father and father-in-law.

Bah! What father-in-law? I don't admit that I am his father-in-law! Don't think you can kidnap Yaoyao so easily!

Ruan Tianli shook his head helplessly; the movement was slow and heavy, filled with complex emotions of helplessness and confusion.

He opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips he didn't know where to start.

At this moment, Lin Guochang narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke thoughtfully.

"Yaoyao's feeling may not be without reason. Sometimes, people's intuition can often detect some subtle changes, which may not be obvious on the surface."

Lin Guochang's voice is steady and powerful, like the sound of an ancient bell echoing in a silent space, carrying a wisdom that has been accumulated over the years.

Ruan Tianli glanced at Lin Guochang with a hint of disapproval in his eyes.

There was a gleam in his eyes, mixed with doubts about this kind of judgment based on feelings alone.

"Guochang, you are just following Yaoyao's lead. What can we prove with just our feelings? We need some practical evidence."

Lin Guochang took a puff of cigarette slowly, and the smoke rose in front of him like a soft gauze, like a layer of mysterious veil.

He stared at the smoke quietly, and his thoughts gradually drifted away with the smoke.

When he and Lin Yi went to rescue An Qing, An Qing mentioned that Lin Yi felt different from before.

However, at that time, Lin Guochang was immersed in the joy of rescuing his lover and did not take this matter to heart.

It’s strange to say, he had finally rescued his biological mother, and logically, Lin Yi should have stayed with her for a while.

However, after returning to the imperial capital, Lin Yi did not even follow to the alliance, but went straight back to the Bird's Nest.

Moreover, he has not contacted An Qing or himself in the past two days. If it were normal, he would have asked about the situation every few days.

Lin Guochang should have noticed it earlier, but he has been too busy recently.

Take care of the indigo orb, strengthen the alliance's defense, and find time to train Pokémon in preparation for the upcoming King's Tournament.

Lin Guochang was so busy every day that he didn't even have time to be intimate with his wife An Qing, let alone take care of Lin Yi who was used to being free.

After hearing what Lin Guochang said, Ruan Yaoyao's eyes lit up, as if she had found a supporter.

Ruan Tianli looked at the two people standing on a united front, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.

You have such a tacit understanding that it seems as if you are father and daughter.

He muttered to himself, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"Okay, then Yaoyao, what are you going to do?"

Ruan Tianli frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in his tone.

"Oh, I've already thought of a way to test whether he is the real Lin Yi."

Ruan Yaoyao raised her chin slightly, her eyes gleaming with confidence.

She thought for a moment and whispered:

"I will ask Lin Yi to come out, and then test him using my method. You guys just lie in ambush nearby and don't get discovered.

After the test, I will send you a signal.

If it is the real Lin Yi, then everyone will be happy; if not, then please take down the fake one."

Her voice was soft, but it revealed her firm determination.

"What signal?" Ruan Tianli asked, his eyes full of curiosity.

"Well, if it's Lin Yi, I'll let him buy juice. If not, I'll let him buy mineral water."
