In fact, Xia Yingluo didn’t really care about what happened before.
But Xia Yingluo still felt a little wronged.
Why didn’t you look for all these years?
Why did you clearly recognize her but never acknowledge her?
Old Man Xia looked at Xia Yingluo’s sowhat lancholic eyes, "Yingluo, the truth is, I was afraid you wouldn’t be able to accept it if I told you. I was afraid you’d ignore , so I wanted to wait until we were truly familiar before finding a chance to tell you."
Xia Yingluo took a deep breath, "I need so ti alone."
With that, Xia Yingluo walked outside.
Old Man Xia looked at Ye Chen, "Did I say sothing wrong just now?"
Ye Chen sighed and said, "Professor Xia, perhaps you still don’t understand Yingluo well enough. You only worry about whether Yingluo will bla you or ignore you, but do you know what Yingluo’s greatest wish is?"
Professor Xia looked at Ye Chen in confusion and asked, "What is Yingluo’s wish?"
Ye Chen said, "Yingluo’s greatest wish is to have a family mber."
Hearing Ye Chen’s words, Old Man Xia froze.
Ye Chen said, "Old Man Xia, if you had told her one day earlier, she could have felt the warmth of familial love one day sooner. This is what she yearns for the most."
He understood Xia Yingluo too well.
Xia Yingluo longed for familial affection; she longed to have her own family.
Only now did Old Man Xia realize how foolish he had been not to acknowledge Xia Yingluo.
"Ye Chen... could you help , and talk to Yingluo?"
"Professor Xia."
"No, Ye Chen, calling Old Xia is fine too. As long as you can help convince Yingluo, calling Little Xia is also no problem."
Old Man Xia’s attitude was extrely humble now.
He was very grateful now that Ye Chen was here.
Otherwise, he truly wouldn’t know what to do.
Ye Chen ca to the courtyard.
Xia Yingluo was standing in the courtyard, looking at an old apricot tree in front of her.
She was looking at the treetop, lost in thought.
Ye Chen walked up beside her.
"My mother said she loved playing under the small apricot tree when she was little. This apricot tree was planted by my mother herself."
Ye Chen said, "Yingluo, actually Professor Xia, he..."
"Actually, I don’t bla him, nor am I angry, it’s just..."
Ye Chen said, "I know. It’s your first ti being with a relative, and you don’t know how to interact, right?"
Xia Yingluo nodded, "People are so strange. When I didn’t have family, I always envied others, but now that I have family, I don’t know what to do. I was even truly a bit scared just now."
Ye Chen deeply understood Xia Yingluo’s feelings.
He knew that Xia Yingluo must be feeling very confused right now.
She used to be all alone.
Everything in her life had been getting better and better.
Now, suddenly having a maternal grandfather, it made her unsure how to face the situation.
Xia Yingluo was a kind girl, so right now, she was likely more overwheld than anything.
Ye Chen stood behind her and said earnestly, "Yingluo, no matter what choice you make, I will support you."
Holding Xia Yingluo in his arms, Ye Chen said earnestly.
Held by Ye Chen, Xia Yingluo suddenly felt an unparalleled sense of security.
Just then, a noise ca from outside.
The two turned around and saw Old Man Xia peering through the doorway, watching them like a child who had done sothing wrong.
Seeing Xia Yingluo turn her head, Old Man Xia beca even more nervous.
"Yingluo, if you don’t want to accept as your grandfather, it’s alright. We can still interact like before."
Xia Yingluo shook her head and said, "Can I look at my mother’s room again?"
Old Man Xia felt a surge of joy.
Since Yingluo was talking to him, it ant there was still hope.
Old Man Xia was truly afraid now, afraid that Xia Yingluo would ignore him.
"Of course you can," Old Man Xia quickly replied.
As long as Xia Yingluo was willing to talk to him, there was still hope.
Xia Yingluo returned to her mother’s room.
She picked up her mother’s photo and gently caressed it.
Tears imdiately stread down her cheeks.
Only today did she realize how much she resembled her mother.
Her mother’s photo must have been taken when she was the sa age; the two of them looked like they were carved from the sa mold.
The room was spotless, as if her mother had just left yesterday.
Xia Yingluo could even imagine that Old Man Xia had been cleaning the room and wiping away dust every day for all these years.
She could feel Old Man Xia’s longing and love for his daughter.
Thinking of this, Xia Yingluo’s heart softened considerably.
"The room looks exactly as it did when your mother left. I haven’t moved a single thing," Old Man Xia said from the side.
"Professor... Xia, I’m afraid I still need so ti to process this."
Xia Yingluo looked at Old Man Xia and said.
Old Man Xia quickly nodded, "It’s alright, I can wait. I’ve waited all these years; now that I’ve wished you back, I can wait as long as it takes."
Just now, Old Man Xia had been worried that Xia Yingluo would be angry and stop talking to him.
Xia Yingluo’s words now filled him with a sense of ecstasy.
Old Man Xia asked nervously, "Yingluo, can I still invite you to my house?"
After speaking, Old Man Xia seed worried that Xia Yingluo would refuse, so he added, "If you don’t want to co, that’s fine too."
Xia Yingluo nodded gently, "Yes, you can."
Hearing Xia Yingluo’s reply, Old Man Xia grinned from ear to ear... Kyoto Film Academy.
Li Sitong had just finished a performance.
Enthusiastic applause erupted in the venue.
Instructor: "Si Tong, you perford excellently. I believe Director Xie will definitely choose you this ti."
Li Sitong smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Teacher Li."
At that mont, another Film Academy student walked onto the stage.
Watching that student’s performance, the Instructor frowned.
"Song Yun is a good-looking child, but her talent is too poor."
After the performance ended, Director Xie walked over, smiling.
"We need two actresses this ti. One is Xiao Zi, and the other is Song Yun."
Everyone was stunned to hear this answer.
Even the Instructor was a bit dumbfounded.
It was naturally normal for Xiao Zi to be selected.
After all, Xiao Zi has been a child star since she was young and has popularity, but no one expected Song Yun to be chosen.
"Director Xie, I think Si Tong is more suitable, she..."
Director Xie shook his head, "I’m sorry, but our crew needs soone with Song Yun’s specific characteristics."
Saying this, Director Xie glanced at Li Sitong.
"Miss Si Tong, you don’t necessarily have no chance. How about I invite you for a cup of coffee later? We can talk about the script and see if there are any other opportunities suitable for you."
After all, everyone here is a freshman, and Director Xie’s work is a Lunar New Year film.
Therefore, being able to star in it ans a very bright future.
Li Sitong nodded; she didn’t want to give up this opportunity.
Hearing that Li Sitong accepted the invitation, Xie Kun showed a playful smile on his face.
Tsk tsk, this girl is pure and beautiful, just my type.
