“I followed you all the way.”
Li Qingcang walked towards Ye Tianxin and reached out to caress Ye Tianxin’s hair.
“I managed to easily follow you. You’re not being careful. What have I told you about being alert?”
Ye Tianxin smiled, took a step forward, stood beside Li Qingcang, and asked, “Did my godmother inform you that I would be here?”
“Yes, she was worried some untoward incident might happen to you and you’re alone, so she called me to accompany you.”
Ye Tianxin was touched by her godmother’s gesture.
“So why didn’t you tell me?” Li Qingcang smiled.
“I didn’t want to disturb you.”
Seeing Ye Tianxin searching for her mother’s trails here, Li Qingcang didn’t want to disturb Ye Tianxin at all. He just wanted to quietly look after her so that she could cherish her mother’s memories.
“Elder Brother Li, why are you so caring?”
Li Qingcang thought, ‘Am I caring?’
“Is it bad to be caring?” he asked.
“I didn’t say it was bad.”
Ye Tianxin took out a picture of her mother and her, and eagerly showed it to Li Qingcang.
“Elder Brother Li, look. Do I look good?”
In the photo, Ye Tianxin and Ye Linlang looked more like sisters than mother and daughter.
Their eyebrows were also quite similar.
“You look a lot like your mother.”
“Yeah, I think so too.”
Ye Tianxin had a sad smile on her face.
“I wondered what my mother would be like if she was alive… Elder Brother Li, my godmother told me that Ying Tao was inspired by my mother. I have a feeling that my mother is still alive. I just don’t know where she is… When my mom sees the movie made by Godmother and sees me, will she recognize me and look for me?”
Li Qingcang thought carefully of his answer.
Ye Linlang was already old when her whereabouts became unknown. If she was still alive, why didn’t she return to her family?
She didn’t return probably because she was no longer in this world.
“Tianxin, I mean, if—that’s an if, okay? —if your mother is already married and has other children, what are you going to do?”
Ye Tianxin actually thought about this too.
After thinking about it for a long time, she was resolved that it wouldn’t be a problem if her mother was already married and had children.
As long as her mother was still alive, that’s enough.
“It doesn’t matter, Elder Brother Li. What matters is that she’s alive.”
Hope was slim.
Ye Tianxin was still hopeful.
Perhaps, in the future, a miracle would happen.
“Where are you going next?”
“The pier.”
Ye Tianxin took out her notebook and pointed to the location on it.
“To eat seafood!”
Li Qingcang and Ye Tianxin hailed a cab and went to the dock.
Today’s dock was not the same as the dock in Ye Linlang’s letter.
Near the pier, there were many fishing boats. Fresh seafood were sold, and there were cries of fishermen everywhere.
“Good, fresh seafood.”
Ye Tianxin and Li Qingcang didn’t go to the seafood market.
Instead, the two of them ordered some seafood from a nearby stall.
The seafood there was freshly caught from the sea and tasted better when cooked.
And the price was very tempting.
As soon as the two of them sat down, Li Qingcang saw a familiar figure passing by.
“Elder Brother Li, who are you looking at?”
“I just saw someone I know. I’m just a bit baffled. At this time, he should be abroad.”
