Today, besides being the day to bid farewell to Ling Nai, it was also the day Ayu's father returned.
Ayu's father seldom appeared, and the last ti Fang You saw him was back in kindergarten, an impression of a wise and learned gentle uncle, but that was so years ago.
Polar expeditions usually last at least six months, and Father Yu maintained a habit of coming ho every half a year; however, this year was particularly unusual, as the investigation only concluded after a full eight months. It was only recently that the research vessel docked at Fu City for rest and to summarize the relevant data from the expedition.
Normally, Father Yu would have planned to return ho two days later, but he decided to co back earlier this ti because Mother Yu beca sentintal while watching fireworks and he thought that it had indeed been quite a while since he last ca ho.
As she was preparing to welco her husband ho, Mother Yu decided to cook the al herself this ti.
To make the welco even warr, Luo Xianyu also invited Xia Nuo and Fang You to join in the welco ceremony.
She prepared a welco balloon, which, when opened, would release various confetti and a calligraphy banner with "Welco Ho, Daddy." This was the welco sign Luo Xianyu prepared last night.
In addition, they planned to fold so handicrafts like paper airplanes and origami cranes for decoration around the house.
Folding paper was Emperor Youyou's favorite pasti on a regular basis as he could create knowledge energy; thus, filled with eager anticipation, he imdiately started the paper-folding craft.
"Ayu, your daddy is finally coming back, you must be really happy!"
While folding paper, Xia Nuo chatted with Luo Xianyu, "Did you ask your dad to bring you any gifts?"
Luo Xianyu pondered for a while, "I didn't ask for anything because Daddy said he has a very special surprise for and that Ayu should look forward to it."
"Wow! Gifts from the polar regions! What could it be... Godzilla's tooth, a rmaid's scales, or a narwhal's horn? It feels like you could brag about that for a long ti."
"Hmm... hmm... my dad isn't as amazing as Youyou, so he probably couldn't bring back those kinds of things!"
As Luo Xianyu folded origami cranes, she thought about the gift her dad would bring back, "If it's my dad…"
"That's right, co to think of it, I don't even know what your uncle looks like. It would be awkward if I recognized the wrong person! Let have a look."
"Hmm... oh dear, my dad isn't much to look at!"
Luo Xianyu touched her nose with so embarrassnt, "Even if you saw him, you wouldn't recognize him."
"Anyway, let take a look!"
"Well, take a look at the wedding photo of Mom and Dad then, Dad looks okay in that one."
"Wedding photo! I want to see!"
Xia Nuo excitedly jumped around, pulling Fang You by the hand and said:
"Youyou, stop folding for a mont, let's go see what Ayu's real dad looks like——"
Seeing the various paper airplanes, cannons, and tanks that Fang You was folding, Xia Nuo froze on the spot, "Youyou, what are you folding? You've nearly made an entire military base!"
The wedding photo of Ayu's parents hung in Mother Yu's master bedroom. In the grandiose art photo, Mother Yu wore a pure white wedding dress, her bright eyes brimming with joy and radiance like flowers, snuggled in Father Yu's arms, a picture of happiness.
"Wow, Mother Yu was so beautiful back then! Just like a beautiful princess living in a fairy tale world," Xia Nuo exclaid in surprise, "Ayu, you look so much like your mom, you're definitely going to grow up to be as beautiful as her."
"Because I am my mother's child," Luo Xianyu said with so pride, her eyebrows bouncing up and down animatedly and adorably.
At that mont, Xia Nuo also took a look at Father Yu in the wedding photo; the man in the fra wore black square sunglasses and, although not very handso, appeared cultured and gave off a refined vibe.
"Speaking of which, Father Yu also looks like a scientist, seems like soone very smart at first glance."
"Hehe... my dad is indeed very smart; he knows a lot about marine creatures," Luo Xianyu said bashfully while touching her head, "So Ayu must have inherited Mom's beauty and Dad's clever mind."
Noticing so lifelike marine creature ornants displayed in Mother Yu's room, Fang You suddenly beca interested, "Speaking of which, what does Ayu's dad research?"
"Hmm... Ayu isn't too sure about that..." Luo Xianyu said, "But Dad often sends Ayu pictures of very pretty marine creatures, taken beautifully."
As Fang You leaned in to closely observe the small blue seahorse sculpture in front of him, studying the lifelike carvings and skin textures of the creatures under the glass, he suddenly realized that the exhibit before him was perhaps not as simple as a re sculpture.

"So Father Yu... is actually an expert in marine biology, right?" Fang You said, "These seahorses are real."
"Ah, is this real?" Luo Xianyu was learning about this for the first ti, "Then... why aren't they moving?"
"These have been made into specins."
Fang You explained the process of making specins to Luo Xianyu, and the studious Xia Nuo listened with interest. However, as Luo Xianyu listened, her face showed shock and a sense of dismay quickly set in.
"To think that so many cute creatures were turned into specins using such cruel thods, Ayu always thought they were fake!"
