Extra Chapter 1: Brother’s Story

During her university days, Qi Yan started her internship. After graduation, she successfully entered a studio in the capital and accumulated a lot of connections and resources here. Because of her skills, many artists wanted to poach her.

The other party was an A-list female celebrity and had a good relationship with Qi Yan.

Hence, she did not beat around the bush.

“It’s definitely better for you to go to my place than stay in the capital. Be it opportunity or salary. How many years have you been here? You haven’t been promoted yet. Do you really plan to waste your life like this?”

Seeing that Qi Yan was silent, the other party nudged her with her arm. “Hey, I’m talking to you. Are you listening?”

Only then did Qi Yan react and look up at her.

“I say, do you have any other plans? With your ability, you don’t have to continue staying here.”

“I don’t want to stay in the capital forever.” Qi Yan sighed and told the female celebrity her plan. “I plan to open my own studio.”

The other party’s eyes lit up. “Sure, Qi Yan! I support you! Although I really want you to work with me, it’s fine! Hey, where do you plan to open it? Don’t stay in the capital anymore.”

“How about coming to Huai City?”

Most of the artists in the country either lived in the capital or in Huai City.

“Huai City?” Qi Yan’s eyes flickered as he thought of something. She nodded.

“I’ll think about it.”

That night, Qi Yan checked her savings.

She had been frugal all these years and did not spend much. In addition, she started working part-time when she was in university. The money she had saved could support her current plans.

However, she was more worried about her parents.

Qi Yan didn’t even eat dinner. After some hesitation, she called her mother in the northeast.

The moment the bell rang, she could even hear her frantic heartbeat.

As soon as the call went through, she forgot to greet her and said, “Mom, I plan to resign and go to Huai City.”

It was not a questioning tone, but more like a notice.

After saying this, there was silence on the other end of the phone.

Qi Yan clenched her left fist and placed it on her knee. While she was nervous, a strange excitement actually rose in her heart.

Time flowed backward. This feeling was especially similar to when she was in her teens. In order to accompany someone for their birthday, she ignored her mother’s obstruction and secretly ran out of the house late at night.

Nervousness, uneasiness, agitation, and excitement, she carried the rebelliousness that a teenager should have.

Now that she thought about it, it was a little ridiculous, but she did not regret it.

Ever since she moved out of Jiang City, she had never felt this way.

Thinking of these past events, Qi Yan felt that the waiting process was not as torturous as before.

Finally, her mother sighed. “Yanyan, what exactly do you want to do?”

“Is your job bad now? Or is the boss not good to you?”

Qi Yan said, “No. Actually, it’s alright.”

“Then why do you want to go to the south? Since your job is stable, why did you resign? Do you know how many people wish for opportunities like yours? What do I usually tell you? Young people can’t be too impulsive. You have to consider the consequences.”

“Can you guarantee that you can get a better job than now if you go to Huai City? Besides, putting all this aside, your father and I will be worried about you going so far away.”

“You’re in the capital now. When I’m free, I can visit you. It’s not too far away. But what will happen to me after you go to Huai City? You know that your father’s health has always been poor and can’t take it anymore. He can’t come so far to visit you.

“If you don’t want to stay in the capital anymore, come home. I’ll find you a job.

Although it won’t earn you as much as in the capital, it will definitely be easy. You can even live at home. It’s very convenient. Do you still remember that Dr. Li I told you about? When you come back, you can…’

At this moment, Qi Yan suddenly said, “Mom, I don’t want to go back for the time being. I have no intention of dating.”

“What exactly do you want?”

“I plan to go to Huai City to start a business and open my own studio. Just as you said, I’m still so young. Why should I give up the opportunity in front of me? I can’t be a small photographer who can’t see the future here for the rest of my life, right?”

“Actually, I didn’t just have this idea. It’s been a long time. I just didn’t dare to tell you. I plan to go to Huai City to look at houses in the next few days and resign at the end of the month. You and Dad don’t have to come and see me. I’ll go back to see you when I have time. It’s no different from when I was still in the capital. You don’t have to worry.”

“How can I not be worried about you? Qi Yan, are you really discussing this with me openly? How many times has it been since you were young? Can’t you let us not worry for once?”

Qi Yan gripped her phone tightly and fell silent.

“Qi…” Her mother’s voice rang out again. She did not sound as calm as before.

However, just as she opened her mouth, she was interrupted by another voice.

“I will talk to her. Go and cook. Go, go. Don’t be angry.”

It was Dad.

Her mother muttered softly, probably asking her father to dispel her thoughts.

Soon, her mother left. Her father brought the phone to his ear and said softly, “Yanyan, are you still listening?”

“Yes,” Qi Yan replied. “Dad, I really want to do this. I’ll do my best. Even if I fail in the end, I’ll accept it. But now, I have to do it.”

She thought her father was her mother’s lobbyist. Unexpectedly, her father only smiled when he heard her. “I know.”

“You’ve always had very independent thinking since you were young. I understand. I don’t think your decision this time is a bad thing. Young people should be like this. They should fight and create their own value.”

“All these years, the family knows that it hasn’t been easy for you. Especially after my accident, your personality has changed a lot. I have always felt guilty. Now that I see you like this, I’m really happy.”

“Therefore, you can go without worry this time. If you have any thoughts, do it boldly. Don’t be afraid. Look at how bold you were when you were young. You have to be like before. Don’t be afraid of failure! Leave your mother to me.”

After hanging up, Qi Yan was still in a daze.

An hour later, there was a notification from her bank card.

It was Dad.

Qi Yan couldn’t help but cry in the rented house.

When she woke up the next day, she seemed to have become a different person. Even her colleagues were asking her if something good had happened. Was she in a relationship or had she been promoted?

Qi Yan did not answer. She took three days off from the boss and flew to Jiang City that night.

On the plane, Qi Yan repeatedly turned on her phone to check the photo in the photo album. It was a photo from a news article she had seen previously.

It had been many years since they last met. The young man had taken off his school uniform and was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. However, when he looked at the camera, the smile in his eyes was the same as before.

Qi Yan thought that this was probably the bravest moment in her life..
