Love You More Than I Can

Chapter 24: Hold Her in My Arms

Translator: Mia

One year later, Yu Yi as usual put on what Yu Lan would wear, i.e., the T-shirt, denim shorts, and sneakers, and ran outside for Sheng Youting vivaciously. “Brother Youting, wait for me!”

Standing beside the iron door outside the garden, Sheng Youting’s eyes got a little bit wet. He waved towards Yu Yi and pretended to reply her in a cold voice, “Hurry up, or else I would send you back.”

Yu Yi knew Sheng Youting was not talking to her but to the young Yu Lan at her girlhood. She had learnt a lot on this and now knew how to behave properly. She hopped towards Sheng Youting and put on a fake naive smile, “I’m fast! And there’s no way for me to go back!”

Sheng Youting stared at her for several seconds. His mind went totally blank.

The scene was so familiar to him. In the past, Lan used to hop towards him with a shining smile. However, it was him who took away her sunshine and turned her into another person.

Thinking of the past, Sheng Youting hugged Yu Yi immediately and buried his face at the back of Yu Yi’s neck. His voice trembled, “Lan, I knew you won’t bear to leave me. I knew you would be back!”

Yu Yi gnashed her teeth, living with the fact that she was just a substitute of Yu Lan. She was too cowardly to fight for herself. What was more, she was reluctant to leave this man. Fortunately, Yu Lan was dead forever and she was still alive. Otherwise, she would not even have the chance to be a substitute.

She wished she could be the substitute forever.

However, life is full of surprises and unexpected turns. The already existed and was thought would last gradually changed as time went by.

It was November and Jincheng had already had a first snow.

However, in the southern city of Ancheng, only an unlined garment was enough for travelers visited there.

Wondering around Ancheng, Sheng Youting’s attention was caught by a woman who was with a clean short hair cut above her shoulders. She was holding a stunning little beauty in her arms.

Though seemed to be capable, the woman was with a gentle heart. You can tell her tenderness from her way of treating the little girl in her arms.

The little girl pointed to the tree, the sky, and the vehicles shuttling around the city. She was curious about everything around her. Sheng Youting guessed the woman must be talking to the little girl about the tree, the sky, the shuttling vehicles, and everything that would seem to be new to the little beauty.

She was with such a gentle smile.

What a pity! They were so alike. However, she didn’t have the small nevus at the corner of her eyebrow.

What a pity! Her personalities didn’t like that of Lan’s at all.

Lan was with shining smiles during her girlhood. However, she hid her smile and became indifferent and tough later due to a sense of inferiority. She could with any personality but tenderness. She had never been so gentle and peaceful.

What a pity! There did exist a person who would resemble another person in the world.

However, they were not Lan.

Just as what Jing Shenxing had said, no matter how much Yu Yi resembled Lan, and how many lessons she was trained, she just couldn’t become his Lan forever.

Sheng Youting was overwhelmed suddenly. He realized that it was impossible for him to find a same Lan for the rest of his life.

The scene before his eyes was so harmony that his eyes got ached and swelled. The girl needed to be held and was seem to be at a very young age.

Sheng Youting didn’t know much about kids. He couldn’t tell their ages from the height. He knew the heights of kids vary. You can never get it right just based on the height of a kid. The little girl could be around one or two years old.

Sheng Youting was about to turn around and leave but to see a man running towards the woman with a pink ice-cream cone in his hand. He handed the cone to the little girl with a broad smile and offered his cheeks for a sweet kiss.
