Lin Ziye's eyes were full of tenderness. He had attended many large parties and banquets, but he had not yet met a girl he liked. It was not that he had high standards, but that he just didn't have any affinity with her.

"Alright! Then I'll leave my marriage to my sister!"

Lin Ziye smiled, her face full of happiness.

Don't worry, don't worry~ I'll help you find your other half soon!

Yan Xiluo, acting as if she had everything under control, had already started chatting with the girl she had her eye on; that's how efficient she was.

"Sir, Madam, Young Master, Miss Luoluo, it's time for lunch."

Aunt Shan set the table with a big smile and then called everyone to eat.

Aunt Shan was naturally happy because Yan Xiluo was back today, and the kitchen prepared all the dishes that Yan Xiluo liked to eat.

Yan Xiluo was rarely home, so even at the dinner table, they would chat for a while, and the meal lasted a long time, passing in laughter and joy.

After dinner, everyone sat on the sofa to relax, watch TV, and chat.

After not seeing each other for a while, they always have so much to talk about.

"Sir, Madam. That Mr. Leng is here again."

When Aunt Shan saw Leng Mingye, she didn't let him in immediately. Instead, she told him to wait outside while she came in to inform the master of the house.

"So soon? Seems like you're in a hurry. Please let him in."

Yang Mei never expected that Leng Mingye would come to the Lin family's house so early, just after one o'clock.

"Uncle, Auntie."

"President Lin?"

Leng Mingye followed Sister Shan in and greeted Lin Zhengzhong, Yang Mei, and Lin Ziye. He was somewhat surprised to see Lin Ziye; was this really his home?

Leng Mingye and Lin Ziye had business dealings, so they knew each other and had a cooperative relationship.

"Why is Mr. Leng here at my house?"

Lin Ziye was the first to stand up, somewhat curious. They had business dealings, but their relationship wasn't very close, so they were visiting each other's homes.

"He came to see Luo Luo, saying he wanted to thank her."

Lin Zhengzhong explained.

At this moment, Yan Xiluo also came out of the bathroom. She was a little confused when she suddenly saw that there was another person in the house. Could it be Leng Mingye that Yang Mei had told her about?

Hearing a noise coming from Yan Xiluo's direction, Leng Mingye subconsciously looked in that direction.

Isn't that the happy girl in the Yan family photo? Is she the Yan family's biological daughter? It really is her... Is she Little Strawberry?

He only glanced at Yan Xiluo's photo, but he remembered her appearance. He stared at her blankly; she was many times more beautiful than in the photo.

Yan Xiluo frowned. Why was he staring at her like that?

"Luo Luo, this is Mr. Leng who came to thank you the other day."

Yang Mei pulled Yan Xiluo to her side, protecting her and preventing Leng Mingye from getting too close to her.

"I don't have much of an impression of what happened before; I've helped too many people."

Yan Xiluo honestly couldn't recall ever having any contact with anyone while living at No. 52, Dijing Bay.

Rather, it's because they didn't live there for very long.

"I'll show you something, and you'll remember."

Leng Mingye wanted to call her Little Strawberry, but he held back. It was just a nickname he had given her, and it wasn't very polite.

Calling her by her name like her family doesn't seem appropriate; she's not that familiar with him, and in her mind, they're just strangers.

She had helped many people, but it was impossible for everyone to receive a strawberry bracelet, right? This was the best way to remind her and return the bracelet to its rightful owner.

"That day you saw me crying alone on the lawn, so you ran over to comfort and encourage me. You were wearing a red dress with little strawberries on it, and your hair clip was also strawberry-shaped. You gave me your bracelet, saying you hoped I would be happy. You said the little red strawberries on it represented positivity, courage, determination, and hope. They also represented what I wanted to represent, and you hoped they would bring me good luck."

Leng Mingye spoke earnestly, his eyes shining as he gazed at Yan Xiluo with deep affection, but there was nothing more than gratitude in his eyes.

Everyone listened attentively to him and did not interrupt him.

"From now on, whenever I feel sad or upset, I will feel better when I think of you encouraging me in the sunlight that day... So I came here specifically to thank you and return it to its rightful owner."

As Leng Mingye spoke, he handed the strawberry bracelet to Yan Xiluo. Yan Xiluo recognized the bracelet, which was engraved with the letters LJL. This bracelet was a gift she had given to her cousin, Lin Jinglei.

Everyone's expressions seemed rather unpleasant. Leng Mingye wondered if he had been too emotional when he spoke, making them feel uncomfortable.

“Mr. Leng, it wasn’t me who encouraged you, it was my cousin. Her name was Lin Jinglei, and now… she’s gone…”

Yan Xiluo's eyes were red, and she was about to burst into tears at any moment.

The eyes of the others were also red and glistening with tears.

The villa in Dijing Bay did indeed belong to Lin Zhengzhong. Since it was far from his company, he bought a large apartment near the company, where his family of four lived.

They rarely returned to the Imperial Bay Villa. At the time, Lin Jinglei needed treatment for leukemia, and since the Dongcheng Hospital was close by in Imperial Bay, Lin Zhengyong's family stayed in this villa.

Lin Zhengyong is Lin Zhengzhong's younger brother.

"What? When did this happen?"

The news was like a bolt from the blue, shattering Leng Mingye's heart. Gone? The girl who had pulled her out of the darkness was gone?

He felt numb and stiff all over.

"That was five years ago."

Yang Mei sniffed. She also loved this niece very much, and the two families of her brothers had a good relationship.

"Can you tell me where she is buried? I want to go see her."

Leng Mingye didn't bother asking how Lin Jinglei died; he just wanted to see her one last time.

He finds it hard to accept that the little girl who once shone with golden light is no longer here.

"I'll take you there."

It would be more convenient for her to take him, especially since he seemed a bit emotionally unstable.

"Luo Luo..."

Yang Mei called out worriedly.

"Mom, it's okay. It's been a while since I've seen Sister Leilei, and she misses me too."

She was best friends with Lin Jinglei when they were little, and she almost cried herself to death when Lin Jinglei passed away...

This was the first time she had experienced the feeling of losing a loved one; her dearest sister was gone… She was only fourteen years old when she passed away, a blossoming age…

Lin Jinglei is only one year older than Yan Xiluo. Yan Xiluo skipped a grade and even made a special effort to be in the same class as Lin Jinglei.

"Brother, you stay home with Mom and Dad. I'll take Mr. Leng to see Sister Leilei."

The loss of Lin Jinglei is a painful memory for both Lin Zhengzhong and Lin Zhengyong's families, and they cannot let go of it even after five years.

She was worried that Lin Zhengzhong and Yang Mei would be upset, so she hoped that Lin Ziye could comfort them at home.
