Huo Lingan held his phone and took a picture of the already yellowed photograph, then used the cropping tool in the album to cut himself out, leaving only Jiang Wanling before sending it to He Zhiyao.
Then he carefully put the picture back, opened the album, and stared at the photo in his phone for a long while.
If, if you are still alive, please live well in the future as well.
Sister.
...
He Zhiyao returned to his room, just about to lift the covers to get into bed, when he heard his phone ring.
Worried about waking Qin Shuang, he quickly walked over to silence the phone, then carrying it to the living room, he glanced at the incoming call from Xu Ji.
He sent Xu Ji a message: "What's up?"
Xu Ji's reply came quickly, "Aunt Zhang has opened up, but she's stipulated that she'll only talk about the past if she sees you."
A corner of He Zhiyao's lips curled into a cold smirk, finally, she's opened up.
