Chapter 1079 1078: The Story Behind the Photos
At that time, Ye Xin was already at the rank of second lieutenant.
And at that time, Yang Chen was just a new recruit in the Guard.
If you calculate it by seniority in the Guard, Yang Chen should actually call Ye Xin "old squad leader."
Thinking about this, Yang Chen couldn't help but reveal a slight smile.
"Do you remember this woman you're holding is your mother?" Yang Chen asked.
Left Envoy Yang looked at Hu Yashu's face, his eyes slightly red, shook his head and said, "I don't know, I don't remember. But... but why... do I feel so familiar, and my heart feels uncomfortable, like something is missing."
Seeing Left Envoy Yang's painful look, Yang Chen felt a pang of heartache and said softly, "You don't need to blame yourself, it's not your fault, you just temporarily forgot, you will remember in the future."
Left Envoy Yang gave Yang Chen a deep look, signaling him to continue.
Yang Chen continued to tell Left Envoy Yang.
Finally, when flipping through the marriage certificate photo, Yang Chen paused.
"Do you remember?" Yang Chen looked up at Left Envoy Yang.
Left Envoy Yang also looked at Yang Chen, shaking his head slightly.
Yang Chen took a deep breath, looked at Left Envoy Yang and said, "I, Yang Chen! Marry you, Ye Xin, as my wife! I promise you, from today onwards, no matter in good times or bad, wealth or poverty, health or sickness, I will always love you, cherish you until the end of time. I promise I will be forever faithful to you. Today, we will jointly bear the responsibilities and obligations bestowed by law in our marriage: honoring parents, educating children, respecting and loving each other, abiding by laws. In the future, whether in poverty or wealth, health or sickness, we will share hardships and joys, loving each other, cherishing our love."
Yang Chen remembers the promise clearly.
Left Envoy Yang listened to Yang Chen's solemn words, unable to help but be stunned.
In her ears, another voice seemed to echo.
"I, Ye Xin! Marry you, Yang Chen, as my husband! I promise you, from today onwards, no matter in good times or bad, wealth or poverty, health or sickness, I will always love you, cherish you until the end of time. I promise I will be forever faithful to you. Today, we will jointly bear the responsibilities and obligations bestowed by law in our marriage: honoring parents, educating children, respecting and loving each other, abiding by laws. In the future, whether in poverty or wealth, health or sickness, we will share hardships and joys, loving each other, cherishing our love."
For some unknown reason, Left Envoy Yang's ears seemed to suddenly recall this voice, as if she was there.
And Left Envoy Yang's gaze towards Yang Chen changed.
Is all this real?
Left Envoy Yang, although doubtful, had chosen to believe in her heart, she just didn't have these memories and couldn't fully believe.
Yang Chen said to Left Envoy Yang, "I will never forget the vows we made back then."
"But you're with your beautiful CEO!" Left Envoy Yang scoffed.
"Oh..." Yang Chen froze, a bit caught off guard.
"Humph!" Left Envoy Yang turned her head slightly, arrogantly scoffing.
Yang Chen rubbed his nose in frustration, "That's your closest best friend!"
"Beware of fire, theft, and best friends!" Left Envoy Yang said coldly.
"Uh..." Yang Chen was momentarily at a loss.
Left Envoy Yang glanced at Yang Chen, scoffing coldly, "Feeling guilty!"
Yang Chen's forehead broke out in cold sweat. Where was he feeling guilty? He conducted himself properly!
Helplessly, Yang Chen looked at Left Envoy Yang and said, "I can swear to the heavens, you are the only one in my heart."
"Only a fool would believe that!" Left Envoy Yang retorted lightly, almost making Yang Chen want to spew blood in frustration.
Yang Chen sighed helplessly, closed the album, and asked Left Envoy Yang, "Do you believe it?"
Left Envoy Yang fell silent, not answering.
"There's no rush, acceptance takes time. Once you start remembering, you'll understand." Yang Chen sighed.
It seems Left Envoy Yang's issues are probably not solely about memory loss. Even these photos can't trigger Ye Xin's memories, there might be other problems.
"I just feel it's familiar, but I really can't recall any memories. I've even suspected these photos might be composites, but I haven't found any evidence of that, and they all seem familiar, like I've seen them somewhere, but just can't remember." Left Envoy Yang slowly said.
Yang Chen glanced at Left Envoy Yang, nodded slightly, knowing these photos must have touched Left Envoy Yang's deep memories, but as for why nothing was recalled, Yang Chen couldn't say.
"Actually... I don't have many memories of Penglai Island either. They just told me I've grown up there since childhood. I've received the best education and training to be an outstanding woman... However, I have no sense of belonging to that place. I don't like it there, so I left. Now you tell me all this, making me even more doubtful... But what you say is consistent with what those people on Penglai Island told me, they all say it's true, but I have no memories of it. I don't know who to believe, although I want to believe you more, that I am a child with parents and not an orphan... But... I need evidence, I need the truth, not just a few photos and your words."
Yang Chen nodded slightly, "I understand."
"I hope you don't make this public because if others find out, there'll be big trouble, and..." Left Envoy Yang's gaze flickered, not continuing her words.
Yang Chen gave Left Envoy Yang a deep look and said, "I am leaving the day after tomorrow, but before I go, I hope you can come to the First-Grade Kingdom; I have something to show you."
"Where exactly are you going?" Left Envoy Yang couldn't help but ask.
She couldn't help but worry about Yang Chen's safety, not wanting him to be in any danger.
Yang Chen hesitated slightly, then slowly said, "Going to deal with some matters with the Xiang family."
"Are you going into the tomb?" Left Envoy Yang asked wide-eyed.
Before coming to Ancheng, Left Envoy Yang had prepared all the information, naturally understanding what the nine families were involved in.
Yang Chen nodded slightly, confirming.
"Do you know how dangerous it is underground? All kinds of mechanisms and traps, things ready to pop out at any moment. Why the Xiang family has remained hidden and hasn't thrived is because they suffer significant losses. After nurturing someone, they might disappear underground anytime. Also, tomb raiding harms one's prosperity, if you go, you'll definitely pick up some bad things." Left Envoy Yang advised.
Yang Chen slightly shook his head, "I must go! It's a promise I made, for past friends."
Left Envoy Yang furrowed her brows, gazed at Yang Chen, and fell silent for a moment.
