Chapter 153: Mom’s Diary (1)
Ning, it is my good fortune to be able to marry you.
Ning, you are asleep right now. I look at your peaceful face, and my heart is filled with joy.
Ning, I love you.
Just a bit more than you love me…
Ning, I am not just Ye Linlang now.
I am also your wife and the mother of your child.
September 30. Weather: Sunny
Ning, I have good news for you.
I am pregnant.
We have a child of our own now.
What do you think it is, a boy or a girl?
If it’s a boy, I hope that he will be like you.
If it’s a girl, I hope that she will be like me.
Let’s have a son and a daughter. Shall we?
The boy will look like you, and the girl will look like me.
Come back soon. I can’t wait to share this good news with you.
Ye Tianxin wiped the tears that trickled down her face. She only knew how much her mother loved this “Ning” when she read her mother’s diary.
The sweet words in the diary broke Ye Tianxin’s heart.
She went straight to the last page of the diary.
And she found this entry:
October 1. Weather: Gloomy
Ning, I received a telegram from Li Jijun.
I am coming to find you.
Ning, you must still be alive.
I believe that you are still alive.
My dearest Ning, I hope that you are alive…
I don’t care what happened to you as long as you are alive. I love you.
You have to be alive. I don’t mind even if you don’t remember me.
Ning, my dearest Ning, I miss you so much.
I miss you very much.
You still have not seen our child.
It’s a girl.
I gave her the name Tianxin.
She is our precious treasure.
My dearest Ning, Tianxin can already sit up. I tell her about you every day.
My love, I am coming to find you.
The diary entry suddenly ended.
Ye Tianxin’s face was covered with tears. She only knew then that her mother had loved her father so deeply.
Her father, based on her mother’s entries, had been a loving man. For a while, she wondered how was it like to have both her parents by her side.
Her mother had told her about her father’s heroic deeds when she was very small.
It was a pity that she had been too young then. She did not remember it.
Ye Tianxin packed up the things and washed her face. She took the diary out again when she returned to her room.
She noticed that there was something odd about the diary.
Indeed, she found a small black-and-white photo behind the diary’s small pocket. There were jagged marks on the edges of the photograph.
It was a photo of her mom and her dad. In the photo, her father wore a white shirt and his hair was short and neat. Her mother’s hair was loose behind her back, and she wore a cheongsam. She looked fashionable. Their eyes were filled with love and affection.
Ye Tianxin suddenly felt that she should do something for her dad…
If her dad had really died on the line of duty, then she could ask Elder Brother Li to check her father’s files.
She wanted to find her paternal grandparents. She wanted to tell them that she was their granddaughter.
If her paternal grandparents were still alive, then she would love to meet them and perhaps form a relationship with them.
Ye Tianxin put the diary beside her pillow. She was still not done reading it.
The diary was thick. It would take Ye Tianxin days to finish reading it.
Ye Tianxin fell asleep.
She had a dream.
In her dream, her father and mother were very young.
She seemed to have traveled back in time to when her parents were young…
“Tianxin, quick, wake up! The house is on fire!”
Guan Chenxi had once been in the military and she was very alert. She smelled wood burning in her sleep and immediately got out of bed. The first person she woke up was Ye Tianxin.
