The photograph, over twenty years old, had yellowed edges.

It depicted two young people standing side by side, dressed in high school uniforms.

Their expressions were carefree and spirited, epitomizing the prime of youth.

The woman compared the young man on the right in the frame with the image of Si Fuqing on the TV, “They look so alike, especially this expression. It’s uncanny.”

After a few seconds of hesitation, she spoke, “Although it seems unlikely, if your older brother’s child were still alive, they would be around eighteen or nineteen years old now. The news just said she’s an orphan, adopted by someone else. Could it be…?”

“I’m taking leave right now and heading to Southern State,” the man quickly put on his coat, his voice filled with urgency. “Whether it is her or not, I have to see for myself.”

“Don’t be hasty,” the woman held him back, “The news said she hasn’t woken up yet, and she’s a celebrity. There will be many reporters there. How would it look if you just showed up like this? Let’s go tomorrow, I’ll come with you.”

“You’re right, you’re definitely more thoughtful, we can’t just rush over there,” the man calmed himself with difficulty, “I’ll do some research first.”

He immediately began searching for all news related to Si Fuqing, not overlooking any detail.

The fact that Si Fuqing was adopted by the Zuo family wasn’t a secret, and he quickly found out that she was brought from Sijiu City to Lin City by Old Master Zuo thirteen years ago.

Raised by him until she was eighteen, until a few months ago when Old Master Zuo passed away.

Sijiu City.

The man frowned, “This location doesn’t match. It should have been in Eastern

State, but it’s not a big problem. A paternity test will clear things up.”

Eighteen years ago, he had received an urgent message from his older brother, instructing him to go to Eastern State to pick up a baby, with a keepsake in the swaddle that would be recognizable at a glance.

But when he dialed back, the number no longer existed.

By the time he rushed to Eastern State, he couldn’t find the baby mentioned in the message.

At first, he thought the child might have been lost or kidnapped by human traffickers.

But his intuition told him something was amiss.

So, he and his wife immediately moved to Northern State, changed their names, and cut off all ties with their past.

But he couldn’t give up on his older brother’s child.

Over the years, while working, he continued to search in Eastern State but never found a child that matched.

The man looked at the TV, his hands trembling, covering his eyes, “I’m useless, couldn’t even find a child…”

“Maybe it is her? But if she really is your older brother’s child, then she’s suffered a lot too,” the woman wiped her tears. “She’s so young, knowing that her parents are gone must be so hard.”

Hearing this, the man fell silent, “That’s why if it is her, we have to bring her over. Considering her age, her power should also have…”

The woman took a moment to process information, “What?”

The man shook his head, exhaling slowly, “Nothing, just that if she ever faces any danger, we can protect her.”

On TV, the news continued.

“According to local reports, they were initially trapped in the center of the sea tornado. It was Miss Si Fuqing who rescued them. We have obtained some video footage from them.”

The screen changed, showing footage of Si Fuqing diving into the sea to rescue people, resurfacing and submerging again and again.

The man saw her trembling arms, her body covered with cuts from debris.

Yet, even in such a dire situation, she unhesitatingly went back into the water.

There was a certain steadfastness and presence about her, standing there like an insurmountable mountain.

Even in the face of the sea tornado, she did not submit.

No one knew or could understand what drove her.

“She’s incredible,” the woman gasped in admiration. “At her age, I was crying in my dorm room over not wanting to do military training.”

“I’m starting to believe more and more that she’s your older brother’s child. Didn’t you say your older brother was also remarkable, having saved many people?”

The man stared blankly: “Yes, he was.”

“Now for a breaking announcement,” the news anchor’s expression changed as she read the paper. “Someone has made an official complaint that this was not just a natural disaster but also a premeditated murder. We now switch to our reporter at the scene.”

The camera cut to a hospital room in the town..
