Ye Hao waved his hand.

“No,” he said. All he wanted to do right now was to carefully examine everything in this house because everything inside this place was like a window to her past.

He turned and walked along the corridor, then randomly opened one of the room doors. After he turned on the lights, he saw that it was the master bedroom. The master bedroom wasn’t very big and it was around 20 square meters with a bed that looked old in terms of style, as well as a large closet and a dressing table.

He entered the room and soon, the mirror on the dressing table reflected his tall figure. There were several items on the table and he could see a comb and many prescription papers and uneaten pills that seemed to have expired a long time ago since their paper boxes were already yellowed with age.

He could tell that this room had been her parent’s room.

He glanced toward the right and saw a large photo wall filled with photographs of varying sizes. Some of these photographs were framed while others were clipped on a string that hung across the wall. There were many photographs and he guessed that there were at least a hundred photographs.

He walked over and examined each photograph one at a time. He spotted a wedding photograph that seemed like it was taken a long time ago and the young couple captured within the photograph was dressed in a 90s style wedding outfits and their fingers were interlaced. They looked very happy as though they had gotten married because they truly loved each other. Then, he looked at the photograph behind, and it was a solo shot of an infant with the caption: baby’s six-month photograph.

Was this Yan Yan? Ye Hao stared at this photograph for some time. The infant captured in this photograph was still very tiny and sat on a pink carpet carrying a tiny stuffed bear and smiled brightly, looking very adorable.

Were you that chubby when you were young? His lips gently curved upwards and also started to smile without realizing it.

His gaze moved toward the next photograph and he stared at it for a long while. Then, he immediately frowned and looked very puzzled.

This looked like a family portrait but other than Yan Yan’s parents and Yan Yan who looked about 3 years old then, there was another girl who seemed to be around a year old.

Wasn’t she an only child? Ye Hao thought in surprise. Why hadn’t he heard her mention her sister before?

“Yan Yan… come over here please,” Ye Hao called out to He Xiyan who was in another room sorting out some stuff.

“Could you tell me more about this photograph?” Ye Hao looked at his wife in confusion and pointed at the family portrait taken in 1998.

He Xiyan looked in the direction of where he pointed and soon spotted that photograph.

She looked at it for a few seconds and when she saw her young parents and 1-year-old sister in that photograph, she blinked a few times and soon, her eyes clouded with tears.

They had once been such a happy family but she was the only person left from the family portrait.

“What happened to your younger sister?” Ye Hao pulled her into his arms when he saw that she was a little upset and wrapped his arms tightly around her shoulders.

He Xiyan left out a soft sigh.

Her eyes filled with even more tears before she knew it. She hadn’t looked at these photographs for a long time because she would feel upset every time she saw them. Thereafter, she didn’t dare to look at them anymore.

“My sister had gone missing!” He Xiyan said in a low voice. “During a rally, my mother was separated from my younger sister who had only been a year and a half then. Later, they continued searching for her for many years but they never found her.”

Then, He Xiyan cast her eyes downwards and hugged Ye Hao tightly.

This incident had brought a lot of pain to their family for many years and her mother had always blamed herself for losing her younger sister. Her mother had never managed to see her sister again before she pa.s.sed away and died with regrets. She didn’t really remember her sister but she knew how much her sister’s disappearance had pained her parents.

If she could, she would love to find her sister, then tell her parents in heaven that her sister was still alive.
