Chapter 835: Chapter 21: Seeing Through_4 Chapter 835: Chapter 21: Seeing Through_4 She walked over to the couch.

Yan Qiaoqiao was so engrossed in watching TV that she didn’t notice her approach at all.

Zhao Yingjun followed her gaze toward the television.

On the screen was an old but exceptionally classic Chinese animated movie—

“Lotus Lantern.”

“Do you understand it?”

Zhao Yingjun was somewhat incredulous.

Although everyone knew that Yan Qiaoqiao was about thirteen or fourteen years old...

she had amnesia, and in terms of intelligence and cognition, she was almost like an ordinary five- or six-year-old girl.

A five- or six-year-old girl surely couldn’t understand an animated movie like “Lotus Lantern,” which was somewhat profound, could she?

...

“Hehe, our Qiaoqiao has made great progress these past couple of days!”

Yan Mei closed the door and walked over proudly, boasting to Zhao Yingjun:

“Qiaoqiao really changes day by day.

Now she basically understands everything she watches on TV, and she learns things particularly fast from it.

Her speech has also become more fluent, and she can say long sentences now.”

“Yesterday, your father and I took her to Ruijin Hospital for a check-up, and the consulting specialists all said that there’s nothing wrong with Yan Qiaoqiao’s health, and in many aspects, she’s even better than normal children!

Now it looks like, our Qiaoqiao is simply clever!

After all, she just has amnesia, it’s not that she really has a low IQ...

So, look at how quickly she’s progressing!

I estimate that in another ten days or half a month, her intelligence and mental state will be completely back to normal!”

At this moment,

How does it feel?”

Yan Qiaoqiao looked up and pointed to the mother and daughter reunited on the screen:

“Where did daddy go?”

“...”

Zhao Yingjun had not expected that Yan Qiaoqiao would ask such a difficult question.

Indeed.

He also couldn’t remember where, in “Lotus Lantern,” Chenxiang’s father, the mortal scholar the Third Holy Mother loved, ended up?

Um...

It seems the story didn’t mention it, did it?

Could it be that a day in heaven equals a year on earth, so by the time Chenxiang split Mount Hua to save his mother, hundreds of years had already passed on earth and he had long passed away?

Or was it that, for violating heavenly laws, he was executed early on?

Unclear, also can’t remember.

Zhao Yingjun could only shake his head:

“This animated film, its theme and main purpose, are not focused on the father but mainly talk about maternal love, struggle, effort, and the like.”

“With films and TV shows, we only need to understand their main message, we don’t need to think too much about other things.”

“Like in this animation, Chenxiang’s father is practically a superfluous character, just a mortal, what’s he got to do with all these battles between deities?

Thus, he was quickly forgotten by the viewers, just a simple backdrop, a tool.”

Yan Qiaoqiao seemed to understand.

Seemed not to.

Listening to the end credits’ melodious tune, watching the smiling Chenxiang and Third Holy Mother on the screen, she said unhurriedly:

“But...”

“Without a father, how can they be called a family?”
