"Yes, of course."
Xie Tingyun's heart almost melted when she found out about Qiao Nian's background. How could she bear to disagree?
"I didn't mean to force you into agreeing," Xie Tingyun said, looking at her with gentle eyes. She rummaged through a drawer on the bedside table and took out a box. Opening it, she took out an old, yellowed photograph, handing it to Qiao Nian. "Nian Nian, this is for you."
Qiao Nian lowered her eyes and took the photo. The photo pictured a high-spirited young woman.
It was an old, yellowed photo.
A total of six people were pictured in the photo.
One of them was Xie Tingyun.
The man in a green Chinese tunic suit was familiar. She vaguely remembered seeing him once at the First Research Institute. He seemed to be Ji Ziyin's teacher, Gu Hengbo.
Standing in the middle was a young woman. The young woman was outstanding and smiled at the camera in an obviously elegant and carefree manner.
—Ji Qing.
