Chapter 2230: Like A Wild Goose Returning To Its Nest
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
As Li Jinnian turned around, Ye Jian could see the old man more clearly. The old man could also see the young woman standing in the sunlight. She had a beautiful face and a faint smile.
It was as if they had passed through centuries and countless reincarnations before finally meeting. Even the wind couldn’t bear to disturb them, so there was only silence.
Old Master Fu, who was supported by his grandson, looked at Ye Jian and asked Li Jinnian, “Where did you find such a beautiful young lady? This is the first time you brought a lady back to see me.”
Perhaps sensing something, Old Master Fu’s hands trembled as he leaned on his walking cane. He said, “Why do I feel that this young lady looks familiar? I’ve seen this young lady somewhere before.”
It was this sentence that made Ye Jian’s heart skip a beat. Her heart rate instantly soared.
!!
It was as if a seed had suddenly fallen into her chest. It took root with a bang, and in an instant, it grew crazily, making her chest so full that it felt like it was about to explode.
That feeling was like falling leaves returning to their roots, wild geese returning to their nests, or a small boat returning to port…
“I have to step outside and take a better look. She’s so far away and I can’t see clearly.” The old man was old, and his vision was not as good as before. Two years ago, he had cataract surgery on his left eye and would have double vision when he looked at people. He seemed to be asking for confirmation. He grabbed Li Jinnian’s arm impatiently and said in a slightly anxious tone, “Quick, get Little Liu to bring me my glasses. It’s sunny outside. I have to take a good look. This child… I must have seen her before.”
The glasses had not been brought. The old master, who could not wait, stepped out of the door first with his cane.
His hunched body trembled as he took a step forward. Ye Jian’s heart felt like it would jump out of her throat in the next second. She didn’t think too much about it. When she saw the old man take a step forward shakily, an invisible force suddenly pushed her, making her, who didn’t dare to move forward just earlier, take a few steps forward… Then, she stopped abruptly and stood at the bottom of the steps. She watched the old man walk toward her without moving.
Li Jinnian was afraid that he would fall, so he held him firmly and said, “Slow down. Uncle Liu has brought you your glasses. Put them on first.”
The butler who took care of the old man’s daily life hurriedly took care of him. Li Jinnian didn’t ask him to help serve him. Instead, he asked him to go back to the house first. After all, he and Ye Jian were here.
The old man took in Ye Jian’s every move and put on his glasses. When he looked up, he could clearly see why the young lady standing under the sun looked so familiar.
How could this child… not look familiar?
How could a child who looked like his daughter-in-law not look familiar to him? Her facial features were like his daughter-in-law’s, but her forehead was shapely and good-looking just like Yusheng’s. She looked like both his daughter-in-law and son… How could this child not look familiar to him?
The old man stopped at the top of the steps and waved at Ye Jian, who was only a few steps away. He said kindly, “Come, child, let me take a good look at you.”
The old man, who had been through too much, could roughly tell something. As he spoke, tears gleamed in his eyes.
There was no need to say too much or make too many movements. His weathered eyes that were usually calm were now filled with too many emotions.
