Chapter 865 - 867: Vividly Remembered
"Second Uncle, is Yuan Yuan doing well?" Xiao Yifei asked. Yuan Yuan is the second uncle’s daughter.
"She’s doing great. She’s now working at a cultural company in Hangzhou, got married last year, and just had a baby, so your aunt went to help her with the child." The second uncle spoke with pride about his daughter.
"You know, when you two were little, I hoped you would end up together. But you both ended up running further apart, and years would go by without seeing each other." The second uncle seemed a bit disappointed.
"Maybe it’s just fate. I remember we used to get along really well in middle school, but somehow lost contact. It’s probably my fault for going too far away. After staying abroad for two years, I came back to find so many things had changed," Xiao Yifei said, somewhat regretfully.
The two walked around the streets, and Xiao Yifei realized he didn’t recognize many places. They were probably newly built.
"Second Uncle, is this area newly developed? It feels like I’m visiting for the first time," Xiao Yifei asked, looking puzzled.
"Yes, this area was reconstructed last year after demolition. Honestly, I don’t think it was necessary. It used to be lively with street vendors and everything. Now it’s empty; they can rebuild as they please, all just a matter of government decisions," the second uncle said.
"I heard the area where we live is also up for redevelopment. No one knows if it will be completely demolished or not, but there were talks a few months ago," the second uncle continued.
