The following photos recorded her first smile, first turning over, first sitting up, first crawling... Every moment was frozen in the photo and became an eternal memory.
She saw a photo of herself on her first birthday. In the photo, she was sitting in front of a big cake, her face covered with cream, and she was smiling very happily.
Shi Yi and a young woman looked at her with particularly gentle eyes.
This is a very happy family.
The last photo in the album was when she was two years old. In the photo, she had grown into a lovely little girl, her eyes full of curiosity and innocence.
A piece of paper was stuffed next to the photo.
The handwriting on the paper was beautiful, reminding Jiang Qiao of the woman he had just seen in the photo, who was beautiful and elegant.
Dear Jiang Qiao, I'm your mother, Jiang Ling. Perhaps this letter will seem thoughtless to you. I'm sorry I didn't choose to visit you. I've seen your photos, and you're beautiful, exactly as I imagined you would be when you grew up. In the seventeen years since you disappeared, I've lived with regret every day. I hate leaving you home alone. I hate those damned Zerg. I even hated your father. I hated why he went against the Zerg, only for the consequences to fall on you.
But this isn't right. Your father and I shoulder more than just our own family; our identities mean we're responsible for every family on Tara. So I can only hate those Zerg. Jiang Qiao, I'm so glad you're still alive. I know you haven't had a good time these past few years, and Mom really wants to make it up to you.
I know you may not be able to accept returning to your family so soon, but mom really wants to hug you. But your father said that he would give you the right to choose. If you need your family, mom and dad will be by your side as soon as possible. If... if you can't accept it, we will respect your choice.
I didn't go looking for you like your father did, because I was afraid that the moment I saw you, I wouldn't want to give you the choice to take you home directly. Even if you didn't like it, I didn't want to treat you that way. Jiang Qiao, we all miss you very much and will wait for your answer.
The smile at the corner of the lips appears before the tears at the corner of the eyes.
Jiang Qiao closed the photo album, and she seemed to have the answer to the last question asked by Shi Yi.
