Starlight Has No Past
Chapter 25.3
Chapter 25 Part 3
Ye Qiao went back to get all her makeup removed. She heard laughter from the resting area
and asked Shen Ting as she entered the makeup area: “What’s going on over there?”
“The assistant director was saying that when the postman was here today, he said that if we
keep having problems with the internet connection we could write letters to send back home.”
Shen Ting giggled, hand covering her mouth: “The set coordinator, Xiao Zhang, was so funny.
He said he would send a list of missing persons back home. If we disappear after filming he
can help us apply for the benefits.”
She added: “Really, everyone’s going crazy from the poor signal here!”
Ye Qiao asked: “The residents here aren’t that educated. Is there really someone writing
letters here?”
Shen Ting explained: “The incident our movie’s based on happened here and was on the news.
There are some volunteer teachers coming here to help. The husband of one of the teachers is
quite romantic, he would write letters to his wife regularly. The postman’s used to it now.”
Ye Qiao recalled a popular poem on the internet written by Mr. Muxing, <Time Was Slower in
the Past>. “Time was slower in the past. Carriage, horse, mail all take time…..So slow, you
have only enough time to love one person in your life.” This teacher’s husband was truly a
romantic person.
Ye Qiao remembered the news she got from the phone call last night. A spontaneous idea
came to mind. “Can we really send letters out?”
Shen Ting was surprised: “Qiao Jie, do you really want to send a letter?”
Ye Qiao nodded.
It wasn’t really a letter, but a leaf. The flat leaf was enclosed inside the envelope without a
word to go with it. Ye Qiao wrote down the address on the envelope and handed it to Shen Ting.
Shen Ting complimented Ye Qiao’s beautiful handwriting and said: “I should mention it to the
company. Maybe the publicity office can manage to add your handwriting as one of the fonts
in Founder Font for all the fans.”
Ye Qiao’s concern was elsewhere: “How long will it take for the letter to arrive there?”
“Should be pretty quick. We usually go to town and mail it directly at the post office. Don’t you
worry, no matter how remote we are, the post office works the same as the others. It should
arrive in no more than a week.” Shen Ting then noticed the address on the envelope. She
seemed to remember that Ye Qiao lived in the same residential area. “Hm? Qiao Jie, isn’t
this your home address?”
Ye Qiao said: “No, it’s not.”
“Oh…...it’s your neighbor.”
She had guessed right. Ye Qiao flatly replied: “En, it’s his birthday.”
“A birthday gift?” Shen Ting’s chin dropped, a random leaf as a birthday gift? It was hard to
understand artsy people……
“That’s right.” Ye Qiao smiled, checked the seal on the envelope, then patted Shen Ting’s
shoulder: “Get going, little dove.”
Shen Ting had been with Ye Qiao for some time now but she had never seen her in such
a good mood, even her eyes were smiling.
It was a leaf from a white birch tree.
White birch is a tall tree with smooth, white bark, it stands out as a beauty in the forest
and has amazing vitality. White birch usually is the first tree to return after a forest fire.
Its leaves are very thick, shaped like an inverted triangle. The one she had sent was a little
lopsided, like the shape of a heart when seeing it from afar.
Ye Qiao recalled the face that had appeared in her head when she was facing the lens
earlier. After Shen Ting left, she then realized that the implication of this letter was much
more profound than she had imagined.
