If Mitsuyu knew what Akemi was thinking at this moment, he would definitely sigh:
"That's quite an idea."
Although his cautious manner, as if he wanted to discuss it with Akemi, Ai's direct relative, did indeed have a hint of a marriage proposal.
Given the current situation, even if the two of them get engaged, the wedding date would have to be set for almost ten years from now.
How could that be?
He had other reasons for seeking out Mingmei.
He had dreamed about the Miyano couple before.
Therefore, he had the idea of painting a family portrait.
A draft has already been prepared.
But he didn't know how similar his drawing of the Miyano couple was to the real Miyano couple, so he came to ask Akemi about it.
He felt that he was dreaming of images he had seen on screen before.
They might be similar, but they could also be vastly different.
It's still a draft, so it's easier to revise it now.
Taking out his phone from his pocket, Kwangyu pulled out a photo of a draft he had taken before coming, handed it to Akemi, and whispered:
"This is it."
"Sis, I just want to ask, does my drawing look like the real thing?"
"I didn't mean to brag, it's just that I've never met my uncle and aunt, so I don't know what they look like..."
He didn't bring the draft with him.
That was a notebook; bringing it along would be too obvious.
Although Ai wouldn't ask or look through it even if she found out, he still felt it was better not to bring it along.
More importantly, it's troublesome to keep taking things back and forth.
He chose to take a picture of the draft with his phone.
The saying "technology changes lives" is absolutely true.
Upon seeing the draft, Akemi was immediately stunned.
A hint of shock inadvertently flashed in her gaze as she looked at Guangyou, and she asked:
"You really haven't seen it before?"
Hearing Akemi's incredulous tone, Kōyū knew that this was definitely going to be a sure thing.
His painting, while not exactly the same, is probably seven or eight parts similar.
Slightly relieved, Kōyū nodded and said:
"Hmm, I've never seen it before."
After receiving an affirmative reply, Mingmei leaned closer to her phone screen, scrutinizing the two figures on the draft, afraid of missing any details.
Her eyes were still filled with disbelief.
Because she was looking down, Kwangyu couldn't see her expression, but he could hear her softly murmuring:
"That's strange."
"Why..."
Why do they look so alike?
"Although it hasn't been colored yet..."
"But after seeing it, I was reminded of them."
At this point, Kōyū noticed that Akemi's voice was trembling slightly.
However, it is quite normal. The Miyano couple have been dead for more than ten years, so it is normal to suddenly see this, even if it is just an uncolored draft.
That is enough to move people.
After staring at the draft for a while, Akemi seemed to have thought of something.
She looked up at Guangyou, a hint of expectation in her eyes.
Taking a deep breath, she tried to keep her tone calm and asked:
"Kuangyou, you really haven't seen them?"
Sensing Akemi's expectant gaze, Kōyū lowered his head and remained silent.
He knew perfectly well what Akemi was expecting.
She was hoping to hear this kind of reply from him:
"To be honest, I saw them some time ago."
Or:
"Actually, they didn't die."
Can...
In fact, the Miyano couple have already passed away.
No, I can only say it's a very high probability.
Perhaps they survived the accident, but Guangyou felt the chances were slim.
The reason she thinks this way is very simple.
Because she knew that his real age was about the same as Ai's.
The accident happened shortly after Ai's birth.
Logically speaking, he shouldn't have met her parents, and at that age, even if he had, he certainly wouldn't remember them so clearly.
Therefore, only one possibility remains:
He met her parents recently.
After bowing his head and remaining silent for a long time, Guangyou made a difficult decision.
He frowned slightly, and when he looked up, he saw Akemi's slightly red eyes.
The words I was about to say were stuck in my throat.
To get his words out, he turned his head away, avoiding Akemi's gaze, before continuing:
"sister..."
"My uncles and aunts..."
Before Guangyou could finish speaking, Mingmei covered his mouth with her hand.
And so, Kōyū saw her in this state again:
Her eyes were slightly red, glistening with tears, and although there was a faint smile on her lips, it was full of bitterness.
Then, she gently shook her head at Guangyou and said:
"Guangyou..."
"Stop talking."
"Just consider it..."
She choked up at one point, and the smile on her face had long since vanished, but she finally managed to keep her voice calm and say the words:
"Just give me a glimmer of hope."
Even if this hope is as faint as the light emitted by a firefly.
"but..."
"It's better than nothing, isn't it?"
Seeing Akemi's sorrowful appearance and sensing the emotions in her words, Kōyū, who wanted to comfort Akemi, couldn't say a word.
At this moment, Kwang-woo was not in the mood for jokes or trying to make Akemi happy.
He pulled a tissue from the table and handed it to Mingmei, saying apologetically:
"Sis, wipe it off."
"It wouldn't be good if Ai saw it."
"This time it's my fault."
"I beg you, you didn't think things through enough beforehand, which brought back that painful memory."
