Chapter 338: Searching for Mother (2) Du Juan sighed. “It’s no use even if you go, Tianxin. The city has been developed. A lot has changed since then. Most of the things that I grew up seeing were now gone.”
“The school is still there.”
Ye Tianxin’s fingers slid gently across the stamp on the envelope.
This was the university her mother once attended.
“Do you want me to accompany you?” Du Juan offered.
Ye Tianxin shook her head. “No, I want to go alone.”
Ye Tianxin found a piece of paper and a pen, then wrote some important points on the paper.
She picked up the old photo of Ye Linlang and said to Du Juan, “Godmother, I also want to wear this outfit and take a photo.”
In the photo, Ye Linlang was beaming beautifully.
Behind Ye Linlang, the eight characters of the university’s school motto were particularly eye-catching.
“Fairness can change with each passing day.”
“Let me accompany you. You’re a girl, so I’m worried that it won’t be safe for you to go alone,” Du Juan insisted on accompanying Ye Tianxin.
Ye Tianxin shook her head. “Godmother, I want to go alone and look for my mother’s trails.”
“Do you want Li Qingcang to accompany you?”
“No, I want to be alone.” Not even the mention of Li Qingcang’s name could change her mind at this moment.
The city wasn’t too far.
If the transportation system was well developed, Ye Tianxin would get there in no time.
This was convenient for Ye Tianxin.
After she got to the train station, she took a taxi and went to school.
More than 10 years had passed, and the campus underwent a lot of changes. However, most of the buildings on the campus still retained its simplicity.
No guard could be seen at the university’s entrance.
This meant that all people could come and go.
In the campus, there was an Osmanthus tree with small orange flowers. When the breeze blew, one would smell the scent of the Osmanthus tree.
Ye Tianxin strolled through the campus. The breeze was blowing gently. She stopped when she saw a cinnamon tree.
As soon as she looked up, she saw the eight words in the photo.
She examined the area carefully. She couldn’t find the exact place where her mother’s photo was taken.
Because although the building was still there, the trees around the building have grown tall.
Ye Tianxin originally wanted to find a good angle and take a picture.
Now it seemed that she might actually need the help of a photographer.
Ye Tianxin ran to a photo studio nearby and found a photographer. “Sir, can you please take a photo of me?”
“Sure.”
Was he a fool to turn down an offer to make money?
He wasn’t.
The photographer took the camera and said to Ye Tianxin, “Are you a new student this year?”
“No, I’m not.”
Ye Tianxin took out Ye Linlang’s photo and said to the master, “Can you take a photo of me from this angle?”
“Of course, I can,” the photographer said confidently.
The photographer in the photo studio was an expert, and he quickly found the right angle.
Ye Tianxin stood in front of the red brick building and took a photo.
“Little Girl, is this your mother? She looks very beautiful!”
When Ye Tianxin heard someone praise her mother, she responded with a smile, “Of course, my mother was beautiful.”
The photographer then took an opportunity to make business for himself.
“Little Girl, do you want me to do you a favor? I can help you upload these two photos into one.”
“Will you charge more money?” Ye Tianxin asked.
Of course she didn’t care about the money. She just wanted to be sure.
Upon hearing Ye Tianxin’s question, the photographer felt a little embarrassed.
“It’s a piece of cake, so why would I charge more? You wait. It will be done in a while.”
