As Mingyue finished speaking, Yun Miao’s eyes narrowed slightly: "Do you know his whereabouts?"
"Yes, I saved him when he was being chased. At the time, I didn’t know his identity, until I accidentally discovered the token on him, which is held only by Mafia members. Then I was sure he was connected to the Mafia, because Miss had been investigating Mafia matters as well, so I knew clearly."
Is Yun Ya also investigating Mafia matters?
Yun Miao thought of Yun Ya’s previous worries and sighed, "Where is he?"
Quickly resolve these matters and bring Yaya home, never letting her suffer again, living a carefree life in the castle he built for her.
"I’ve brought him." Mingyue walked out and brought in a boy.
The boy was slender and delicate, graceful and weak, at first glance, he might be mistaken for a pitiful girl, making one sigh over a misplaced birth.
The boy came in, saw Yun Miao, frowned slightly, with confusion in his eyes.
Mingyue’s cold eyes narrowed slightly, yet the boy showed no fear, staring straight at Yun Miao, pondering with furrowed brows.
Yun Miao also stared at the boy, feeling he’d seen him somewhere... but couldn’t remember at the moment.
"You... you are Yun Miao?" The boy had evident joy in his eyes, stepping closer, encountering an old friend, a childhood playmate, was a small joy and comfort on the road of exile.
Mingyue stretched out a long arm, stopping him, yet the boy did not move closer, smiling: "Yun Miao, I never thought I would meet you here, do you remember me?"
Yun Miao frowned slightly, did this boy actually know him? Searching his memory, he couldn’t remember this person, but felt a sense of familiar recognition...
The boy laughed self-deprecatingly, "It’s normal you don’t remember me...."
For years, he never appeared in public. Two years ago, with Mai Zheng’s sudden fame and Yun Ya’s return, the children from the "Parent-Child Showdown" were once again brought to the forefront. Even Shen Luokui, who became a renowned swimming athlete, was frequently mentioned. During Mai Zheng’s final stage in the talent show, they all reunited, reminiscing the past, stirring emotions. Yet, he was absent.
At the time, he sat in front of the TV, watching the scene, longing but knowing he couldn’t return.
No one remembered him...
He never expected to meet Yun Miao here, looking at the young man in front of him. In memory, he was still a quiet little boy trailing behind his sister, silent from being mute, feeling entirely insignificant among the crowd. Yet how could he forget him? Yun Miao, although unable to speak, was the smartest of the children. Whether puzzles or math, he was always the best, even making the proud Mai Zheng admire.
Unexpectedly, in a blink, so much time had passed, he grew up, his appearance changed, shedding youthful innocence, becoming more steady and mature. Yet he recognized him at a glance.
He and Yun Ya are twin siblings, their features bearing six or seven parts resemblance. He might forget Yun Miao, but not Yun Ya, the smart, calm little girl who lived forever in his memory. Later, as she grew up, she repeatedly stirred up the entertainment industry. During his free time, he’d look at her photos, sketching her image in his mind repeatedly, never growing tired.
Yun Miao finally dredged up from deep memory this boy; at five, he and Yun Ya participated in a parent-child reality show. This boy was the other non-celebrity child in the program—what was his name?
The face from deep memory gradually overlapped with the boy in front, hardly changed, delicate and shy, standing quietly like a white lotus in the wind, evoking compassion.
"You are... Yue Yi’an." Yun Miao spoke softly, his gaze devoid of sadness or joy, appearing exceptionally calm compared to the excitement of the boy in front.
Yue Yi’an’s expression became increasingly shocked, "You... you can speak?"
Yun Miao was born deaf-mute, unable to speak, this gifted boy’s defect causing many to lament.
Yun Miao smiled faintly, serene and composed, "What? Surprised?"
Yue Yi’an quickly reacted, smiling: "You can speak now, that’s good, Yun Ya will surely be very happy."
He noticed that when he mentioned Yun Ya, a trace of gentleness flashed in the man’s eyes.
