Ye Jian looked at it for a long time, so long that Li Jinnian couldn’t help but hold his breath. He looked at Ye Jian with a tense expression. Time seemed to pass slowly. Ye Jian finally spoke in a low voice.

“Red Plum... isn’t my mother’s real name. It’s just her code name. Mom was part of the country’s first real special forces unit. She was also part of the first female special forces unit. Red Plum isn’t her name.

“When the old master returned to the army a year later to inquire about Mom’s whereabouts, she had just given birth to me and was at home. She had not returned to the army.”

Li Jinnian had a deep relationship with his maternal family, and his relationship with his uncle was more like that of a father and son. Hearing Ye Jian’s words, even someone as calm as him was excited.

“No wonder... No wonder Grandfather didn’t manage to find out where Aunt was. Red Plum isn’t her real name!”

Due to his excitement, Li Jinnian’s voice trembled. When his gaze landed on the photo, he suddenly looked up at Ye Jian. “So, Ye Jian, you admit that my aunt is your mother and my uncle is your father. You admit it, right?”

Ye Jian didn’t look up. She kept staring at the young man and woman in the photo as if she wanted to carve their faces into her heart. “I don’t know if your uncle is my father. I only know that the young woman in the photo is indeed my mother.”

In her previous life, she had no idea that her biological father was someone else. In this life, not only did she find out, but she even saw a photo of him. She was not surprised, only flustered.

She was panicking, not knowing how to face it.

However, what mattered was that Ye Jian had admitted that Li Jinnian’s aunt was her mother!

Li Jinnian, who had never looked away from her, said in a hoarse voice, “It’s not difficult to know if my uncle is your father, Ye Jian. As long as you want to know, we can find out immediately.”

“Did your uncle ever look for my mother later? Did he search for her himself? Or did he entrust others to look for her?” Ye Jian didn’t answer him. Instead, her voice became very cold. “Demon King, please answer me honestly.”

She couldn’t accept that Fu Yusheng was her father at once, let alone say it out loud. She could only temporarily use ‘your uncle’ as a substitute.

“Uncle would personally look for Aunt whenever he had the time. He told me himself that as long as he was alive, he would never give up searching. To this day, Uncle is still unmarried. His file says ‘married’. Not only has my uncle never given up, but my grandmother also reminded my mother before she died that she must help my uncle look for his missing wife.”

“Before my mother passed away, she told me that I had to help my uncle find my aunt. I just came from my maternal grandfather’s house. Just before I came to the hospital, my maternal grandfather told me that he hoped that I could continue to help my uncle and the Fu family look for my aunt. Even if... she’s no longer alive, I have to look for her family.

“Ye Jian, the Fu family has been searching for my aunt for three generations. They’ve never given up.”

Ye Jian was already in tears.

‘Mom, did you hear it? Are you listening?

‘The man you loved so deeply didn’t abandon you. He didn’t mean for you to wait from sunrise till sunset. He would have liked to go with you to the marriage certificate, but he had no way of accompanying you.

‘Mom, did you hear it? Are you listening?

‘The man you loved didn’t abandon you. He has always been looking for you. He never gave up looking for you.

‘That’s not all. His family has been looking for you too. They’ve never given up. They’ve never given up!’
