Chapter 2794: Chapter 2794: The Secret in His Safe (11)

Perhaps it was because she never had a father since childhood, from the moment she was born, her mother became more and more unhappy. She always felt that she was unobedient, that her arrival caused her mother to lose her father and face societal pressures.

She had often overheard many people pointing fingers at her mother, saying she was promiscuous for having a child out of wedlock and calling her a burden...

She never thought that someone could be happy because of her birth.

After Dan Tingye told her, she remembered being happy for a whole week, dreaming every night of marrying her brother Tingye and becoming his little wife.

Later, when she grew up, she realized that they were siblings and couldn’t be together, that Qin Youxuan’s little wife was not her, but Youyou.

She never dared to ask Dan Tingye again whether the little wife in his heart had also changed...

Meimei stood there, staring blankly at the safe, slowly raising her fingers, suppressing the fear in her heart, and entered her birthday.

One second, two seconds...

She never felt time passed so slowly, the beating of her heart seemed ready to leap out of her chest.

"Beep—"

The safe opened!

Meimei looked at the unlocked safe in shock, standing there dazedly, staring at her own fingers.

Was it really her birthday?

Did Dan Tingye really use her birthday as the password? Did he remember what she once said?

All of a sudden, Meimei felt like she came alive, staring intently at the safe which had just opened a crack, swallowing hard.

Her fingers touched the edge of the safe, then withdrew.

Standing there somewhat at a loss.

Knowing that Dan Tingye used her birthday as the password gave her immense courage, even made her start to anticipate what was inside the box, but the more she anticipated, the more afraid she became.

She feared that the answer Jiang Nan spoke of wasn’t what she wanted, that she couldn’t bear the sudden plummet into despair.

After several deep breaths, Meimei’s pale complexion slowly regained some color. She closed her eyes and opened the safe in front of her.

"Yu Xin, be brave!"

Silently encouraging herself, she hesitated for a few seconds before slowly opening her eyes.

Seeing the neatly arranged wooden sculptures in front of her, her petite body instantly froze!

These are...

Her glistening eyes shimmered with an unusual light, her alabaster fingers brushed over the outermost wooden sculpture, the smooth touch made her fingertips tremble.

In her mind, for some reason, flashed the scene of attending her first charity gala.

At that time, Dan Tingye had given her a wooden horse pendant.

She had asked him then if it was custom-made, and he did not deny it.

But seeing this row of wooden sculptures now, Meimei inexplicably believed they were all carved by him personally...

But why did he carve so many likenesses, seemingly a timeline from childhood...

Why did Jiang Nan say the answers she sought were in here?

Are these wooden sculptures the answers Jiang Nan spoke of?

"Tap tap—"

Suddenly a series of footsteps sounded outside the door, Meimei’s muddled mind didn’t have time to react, she frantically tried to close the safe, only to see the office door already being pushed open from the outside.

Youyou’s slender figure squeezed through the door crack, seeing Meimei standing in front of the bookshelf with red eyes, she widened her eyes in surprise.
