    “Really nothing?”


    Lu Yinchu lit a cigarette and started to speak, his voice unwavering, “Seven years ago, my DV memory card got lost, the one that recorded every bit of Nanxi’s life.


    It was you who took it, right?”


    Li Weihuan remained silent.


    “You’ve seen Nanxi through my recordings, went to Hong Kong, found her, got to know her, fell in love with her…”


    He pursed his lips.


    Something was tearing at the depths of his heart.


    It hurt a bit.


    No, it hurt a lot.


    “Eight years ago, when your aunt died, it destroyed Mo Yan and myself as well.


    My mental well-being shattered, along with physical injuries, and it forced me to go to Hong Kong to recover.


    I bought a vi there and, at that period, KING Corporation had only been established for around six months.


    You should know that, if I wasn’t left with no other choice, how could I leave?”


    “But now, I’m very grateful that I left back then, because I met Nanxi in Hong Kong!”


    Lu Yinchu often chuckled, his dark eyes slightly squinted as if he was recalling the first time he saw Nanxi.


    Back then, she was only fourteen, very young and well-behaved, filial towards her parents.


    But that’s not the main point.


    The main point was, she was warm and wonderful, just like the fields of sunflowers growing in her backyard.


    Perhaps out of curiosity, he’d watch her from his balcony and, eventually, started to follow her around in a way she wouldn’t notice.


    And so, bit by bit, minor details about this 14-year-old girl filled his year in Hong Kong.


    “She’s very scatterbrained.” Lu Yinchu said, “I followed her around, and she never noticed; my cover wasn’t that great.


    But she never noticed!


    Maybe she didn’t think much of herself, believing nobody would pay her any attention.


    But that wasn’t the case!”


    At this point, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, “At first, I just thought this 14-year-old girl was very interesting.


    asionally, I’d take photos and videos of her with my phone and look at them when I was free.


    When I watched them, I’d find myself smiling.


    That was a rare sight following your aunt’s death!”


    “Later on, I wanted more recordings, clearer ones, so I bought a DV with a high-capacity memory card.


    On the balcony, at the roadside, at the snack stalls…


    asionally, I’d slowly follow her in my car and film her.


    Sometimes, I’d record her when she was with her ssmates…”


    “I became a stalker, but this was my little secret joy.


    I treasured this encounter and it made my heart flutter.


    But, the age gap of ten years between 24-year-old me and 14-year-old her, made me fear appearing in front of her.


    Truth be told, I was afraid of scaring her!”


    “During that year, I watched her, loved her; I dared not hope for anything but wished for her to grow up quickly.


    Upon realizing this, I knew I had truly fallen in love with her, beyond the point of no return!”


    Li Weihuan’s eyshes trembled.


    He dared not look at Lu Yinchu or interrupt him because he had no right to do so.


    “Perhaps, love really can revive a person on the verge of death.


    My mood gradually improved.


    When my shoulder injury was almost healed, I came back, back to H City.


    Do you remember that, Weihuan?”


    Li Weihuan remained silent; how could he forget?


    His uncle left H City and went to Hong Kong!


    But, when he returned a yearter, he seemed to be in a much better mood.


    He began to handlepany affairs again.


    However, he still shuttled back and forth between H City and Hong Kong.


    Although Li Weihuan was curious, he didn’t think much of it!


    Uncle Lu was hurt, both physically and mentally.


    As a nephew, Weihuan felt just as devastated.


    He also wanted Lu Yinchu to recover.


    So when he saw Lu’s change and improvement, he was genuinely happy.


    “…


    I was traveling between Hong Kong and H City for a year, always carrying that DV recording Nanxi.


    It almost became a habit!


    You all noticed that I started to move on, everyone was happy for me, but no one knew the real reason behind it.


    And Nanxi was that reason!”


    He tapped the ash off the tip of his cigarette, then spoke with a self-mocking tone, “Seven years ago in early April, grandpa came back, and our family had dinner together.


    After dinner, I drove you and your cousin home.


    In the bag on the backseat of the car, there was my DV.


    But then there was a minor traffic incident that led to a traffic jam.


    Your father and I got out of the car to smoke leaving you alone in the car…”
