In the photo, a group of students from the Xijing Art Academy was holding a joint activity in the square in front of the library. It looked like a very lively atmosphere.

A tall, elegant, and gentle figure stood out.

Shi Yang.

He seemed to be explaining something as he stood in front of a billboard with a few students.

He was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and there was a faint smile on his face. He looked very elegant.

Shen Li paused.

“Do you mean… Shi Yang?”

Bella nodded.

“Yes. I remember that both he and your mother were at the Xijing Art School. He was three years older than your mother, so I suppose he could be considered a senior?”

As she spoke, she took another look at the photo.

“Actually, there were many people chasing after your mother at that time. The number of love letters she received could not be counted. However, the reason I remember him is because, at that time, the love letters he had given her had been sandwiched in a landscape painting that he had given to your mother.”

Shen Li did not say anything.

Gu Tingyin was a scholar of traditional Chinese painting. It was not unusual for Shi Yang to give such a gift that matched her interests to her.

“However, your mother was chasing after your father at that time. He was the only one in her eyes. Of course, she would not accept these. She gave it back the next day.”

Having brought up the past, Bella could not help but snort softly at the thought of how everyone in Xijing had known that Gu Tingyin was chasing after Shen Zhijin at that time.

“Who didn’t know that your mother liked Shen Zhijin? She chased him from Bai City to the Capital, and even attended the Xijing Art School for him.”

Even as her best friend, Bella had felt jealous, not to mention those boys who liked Gu Tingyin.

Under such circumstances, everyone had known that there was no chance for anyone to win her heart.

Why was it that she had only had eyes for Shen Zhijin?

Knowing his place, he had withdrawn himself early on. Unwillingly, he had continuously hit the wall and had eventually given up.

“What happened after that?” Shen Li asked.

“After that? There was no after that.” Bella shrugged. “After your mother returned the painting and love letter to him, the two of them didn’t have much interaction.”

When one was young, it was too easy to fall in love with someone. However, not everyone could get what they wanted and be with the person that was in their heart.

Shen Li nodded.

All she had known was that Shi Yang had also been a student at the Xijing Art School. She had not known that he had shared such a history with Gu Tingyin.

Bella looked sideways at the perfect combination of Gu Tingyin and Shen Zhijin’s face and said with a smile, “Your mother was beautiful and cute. Ever since she was at the Bai City High School, many people had chased after her. At that time, we had made a bet. We hadn’t known which one would make your mother nod her head first. Who would have known that she would fall in love with your father and fall head over heels for him?”
