Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Three days later, He Xiyan came to Ye City Television and Broadcasting Center. Because of her special status, the TV station was ready to live broadcast this family searching program.
In the morning, the makeup artists helped her put on a delicate look and change in a dark blue evening dress and a beige fur coat, which made her look white with redness s.h.i.+ning from within. Her entire person gave out a temperament as a n.o.ble lady.
She didn’t like such makeup or dress. The director, however, said that this would make her more photogenic. Therefore, she didn’t refuse it for the sake of the effect of the show.
She didn’t look nervous today because of the rehearsals she had during the past two days.
She did not do so for fame, nor for ostentation. She just wanted to find her sister, He Yiyi, who had been lost for over twenty years.
At 8:00 p.m., the show started on time and was broadcast live on the network TV channel.
He Xiyan sat at the family searching guest seat, accompanied by Ye Hao.
Ye Hao held her hand tightly, as if afraid that she would be nervous, which was an apparent public display of their affection.
“Mrs. Ye, who are you looking for?” After a wonderful opening remark, He Lina, the hostess, came onto the stage. She was wearing a long black dress. Tall and slim, she looked bright and beautiful with long and curly hair. She was one of the major hosts of Ye City TV, also one of the most popular hosts nationwide.
He Xiyan turned her head and looked at the audience, hundreds of people down there and then at the director who was filming not far away. She pressed her lips tightly, and after a while, she said, “I want to find a girl. She is my sister, called He Yiyi.”
He Xiyan tried to calm down her emotions, also not wanting to make a fool of herself in the live show.
“Is she your biological sister?” The hostess asked.
He Xiyan nodded, saying, “Yes, we are sisters with the same father and mother.”
The host immediately put on a trace of heavy expression. After all, it was a family searching program, so no trace of a smile should be shown at such a scene. Otherwise, it would be cursed by netizens.
“Mrs. Ye, could you say something about your sister before she got lost?” The host asked again.
He Xiyan sighed deeply. At that time, some tears could be seen s.h.i.+ning in her eyes. She murmured, “My sister, He Yiyi, was born in January, 1997. She was one year and seven months old when she got lost. The place she went missing was at No. 25 South Street, Jin’an Town, Liuyang City, East Xiang Province. She then wore a red overcoat and a pair of dark blue jeans. She could call father, mother and sister. She was indeed a very lively and lovely little girl.”
The voice of He Xiyan now became low.
The audience also appeared somewhat sad, with a serious expression. No one spoke, nor did anyone applaud or do anything else.
“Mrs. Ye, in that case, when your sister got lost, she did not know her name or the place she lived.”
He Xiyan said, “Yes, she just learned to speak.”
The host then asked, “Is there anything special about your sister? For example, did she wear any jewelry when she got lost, or was there any obvious birthmark on her body, and so on?”
He Xiyan paused for a moment and suddenly lowered her head. She took a small jade pendant off her neck, which was cut from suet jade and was milky white.
Soon, a clear picture of the jade pendant was shown on the background screen behind.
He Xiyan murmured, “When she went missing, she wore a small pendant around her neck. This pendant was bought by my mother. My sister and I both have one.”
