Chapter: 5858

So, he carefully searched the bookshelf, wondering if there were any clues left behind among these stored books, but unfortunately, the collection was too vast, and even walking through them wouldn't allow him to finish reading all of them in a short time.

As he flipped through the books, he turned to Lín Wǎnér and said, "There are so many books here. It seems it will take at least a few days to go through them all."

Lín Wǎnér smiled slightly and said, "No matter how long it takes, let's take our time to sort through them. If you don't mind, I'll stay here with you and help you find what you're looking for."

Yè Chén said, "Let's start by taking a look at these books on I Ching and astrology. My parents have been studying I Ching and astrology, so there should be notes left behind in these books."

Lín Wǎnér nodded slightly and asked him, "Young Master, would you like me to help you with that? I don't know if you want my assistance or not."

Yè Chén said, "Since Lín Miss has nothing else to do, why don't we work together to flip through these books and see what we can find. If we come across anything suspicious, I'll let you know immediately."

"No problem!" Lín Wǎnér happily agreed and then took a book from the shelf and carefully flipped through its pages to quickly search for any possible hidden items or notes left behind in the book.

However, after flipping through many books, the two of them still didn't find anything that would catch their attention.

Just as Yè Chén was wondering where to start, Lín Wǎnér suddenly took out a small black album from the shelf and opened it, looking surprised and saying, "Young Master, there's an old photo album here!"

As soon as he heard Lín Wǎnér's words, Yè Chén subconsciously looked at the black photo album in her hand.

Upon taking a closer look, he could see that the album had already aged for many years.

In recent decades, with the rapid development of smartphones, ordinary people have long since digitized all image data without realizing it. Few people still purchase and categorize different types of albums like they did 20 years ago.

Yè Chén was unaware of what was inside the album, so he carefully took it from Lín Wǎnér's hand and opened the first page.

The first page showed two young people standing in front of the Statue of Liberty in America, leaving a single-person photo behind.

The man in the photo looked very similar to Yè Chén, but was dressed in an outfit that was retro compared to his era. He wore a needlework shirt and white cowboy pants, which were distinctive features of the time period. This was Yè Chén's father, Lěi Chángyán.

The woman in the photo looked around 22-23 years old, with a slender figure, wearing a pale yellow long coat and a hairstyle that was very fashionable at the time. Her hair was styled in curls, which still looked great even by today's standards. Her clothes and hair were blown by the wind, making her look beautiful and carefree.

Lín Wǎnér couldn't help but sigh: "Your mother really is very beautiful..."

Yè Chén lightly nodded his head and then jokingly asked: "Have you never seen my mom before? She seemed to have a pretty high profile in that era."

Lín Wǎnér shook her head: "I've searched your mom's biography before, and it's truly impressive. In the fields of technology, finance, and entrepreneurship 20-30 years ago, she had an unparalleled reputation..."

As she spoke, Lín Wǎnér let out a soft sigh and said: "In reality, my life trajectory is exactly opposite to your mother's. Your mother seized her moment after the rise of Silicon Valley and the internet, becoming a hot topic among people, whereas I'm afraid that after the internet took off, my information gathering abilities rapidly increased, almost cutting me off from the outside world, so we just missed each other."

Yè Chén nodded his head in understanding and then flipped open the photo album to the second page.

The second page of the album had a joint photo of both parents.

It was still with the Statue of Liberty as the background. Yè Chéng stood upright, with An Chengqi leaning against him, stretching out his arms to hug him, while Yè Chéng also stretched out an arm to envelop him.

The four photos on this page were all joint photos, showing either a formal, playful, or quirky side, but it was clear that each photo showed the two people, eyes filled with affection for each other.

Lín Wǎnér looked at the photos and couldn't help but sigh: "Your parents' emotional bond must be very good; it's really something to envy." JrNovels.com
