"Shan Shuyao says her father just wants to return to his roots. There's nothing unusual about that, right? Why? Does Eldest Senior Brother think there’s something fishy?"
Shangguan Xi nodded. "Don't forget, Dan Mingxuan isn't actually surnamed Dan. His name is Adan, and he is a man of Beiyin. Even if he were to return to his roots, it should be to Beiyin, not Beiding City."
"Oh, what's so hard to understand about that? Even though he’s a Beiyin man, Beiyin abandoned him years ago. It was General Yue who took him in, and it’s only because of that that his family had food on the table. So, it's perfectly reasonable for him to view Beiding City as his home and wish to return to his roots there," Yu Feiyan remarked, seeing no problem with it.
