“Ignore him,” said Ye Ling calmly.
Shen Qianshu was a bit worried. Did something happen? Ye Chu was the calmest person. Tong Hua poured a glass of champagne for her, and she drank it in little sips.
Mi Er walked over and said softly, “Second Master, Emma said that she has something to tell you.”
“What’s the matter?”
“She didn’t say.”
Ye Tingyun said, “I understand.”
Mi Er glanced at Ye Chu and left slowly. Ye Tingyun asked Shen Qianshu to take care of Ye Chu and went to look for Emma. Emma waited nervously in the conference room. Her face was slightly red, and she seemed like she was anticipating something. When she noticed Ye Tingyun, she took a few steps forward. An unusual excitement surfaced in her eyes. “Brother, is that you? Am I… seeing you again?”
Ye Tingyun wanted to say something but stopped, looking at her fixedly. There was a question in his heart: Why didn’t Emma reconcile with him from the start? Emma knew his name. When they were young, he had written his name out stroke by stroke on her palm.
Emma’s Chinese was not good and only memorized his name. Was Chinese so hard to write and learn that she had forgotten him? It was reasonable too. The eight-year-old Emma was clueless about love. It was impossible for her to be in deep love with him, and he was the only one in unrequited love. It was logical that she did not remember the big brother from her childhood. Yet, why did she suddenly remember him?
He was careful by nature and held a suspicious attitude towards everything. Other than his confusion towards Ye Chu, he had never exposed any tiny flaws. His long silence drew a boundary between Emma and himself.
Emma’s eyes reddened immediately. “That year, something happened to my family. I suffered some serious memories, and my childhood memories are a bit blurred. I don’t remember a lot of things, but I remember my Big Brother. I remembered that you brought me to catch fish, cycle, and go kite-flying. You taught me how to play the harmonica. I remember everything. But your name is so hard to remember, and my memory is bad. I thought that I would never see you again.
“A year ago, I saw your interview on a financial advertisement. I thought that you looked familiar, so I went to Columbia University. I wanted to stay in the same city as you because, for some unknown reason, I thought that you felt familiar. But I really can’t remember. That day after the concert, I accidentally found a piece of your handwriting from when we were young. Only then did I remember that you are my big brother… right?”
Her tears fell endlessly like a broken string of pearls. She looked extremely pitiful. Ye Tingyun said softly, “Emma… It’s me.”
Emma’s emotions collapsed immediately, and she pounced over suddenly. She hugged him and cried uncontrollably, her emotional state breaking down. “Big Brother, you lied to me. You said that you would look for me. Why didn’t you look for me? I… did not forget you on purpose.”
The beautiful girl jumped over and entered his embrace. If she was someone else, she would have been thrown off by him immediately. But she was Emma. The Emma that he had been looking for eleven years. Ye Tingyun was a bit flustered.
This was a scene that he had dreamed about countless times.
One day, they would meet again, reconcile, and embrace each other intimately like how they were like when they were young.
But his heart was extremely heavy, as if there was a huge boulder pressing on it. Emma cried for a long time, and her make-up was smudged. As she choked on her tears, she said, “I have been waiting for you to look for me. But you didn’t. I… I became disappointed. I knew that I had to depend on myself, so I forced myself to hate you. Gradually, I forgot about you. I didn’t do it on purpose.”
“I know.”
