Chapter 216 - The Real Will Is Touching (1/2)
Seeing the familiar handwriting, Zhao Yuan could not help shaking his hands.
“Wanxin, since you got the video of the funeral parlour, you should know what my father’s next words are! He left me two letters that year. The first letter is uncle Zhao’s real handwritten will at that time, which my father asked me to take good care of. The second letter is what he left for me. It said that I’m not allowed to open the first letter until you and Zhao Yuan have children, or Zhao Yuan and Wenxi are together. When they are definitely together, I’ll then give it to Zhao Yuan,” said Zheng Kai.
Hearing that, Chen Wanxin fell heavily on the chair, while Chen Yuanxi could not help but sit up.
“Wenxi didn’t allow me to mourn uncle Zhao on the Qingming Festival. The reason why I went privately was that Yuanxi was ill at that time and seemed to be a little serious. I was afraid that he wouldn’t survive, so I opened the letter,” said Zheng Kai.
“He pretended to be ill, didn’t you know? He, he pretended!” Chen Wanxin said, “Zheng Kai, you have a one-track mind!”
“So, he’ll only love one person in his life,” said Chen Yuanxi seriously.
Chen Wanxin’s brow suddenly moved, and she sat down with an uneasy look, saying, “Chen Yuanxi, you made your illness look real… even I…”
Zhao Yuan looked at the letter carefully. As soon as he saw the friendly address, he burst into tears.
“Dear son,
By the time you read this letter, I’ll be dead. But my son, don’t be too sad. Life and death lie in the lap of the gods. After I die, I won’t be disturbed by anything anymore. You should be happy for me.
I have lived a life of ups and downs, and you are my pride and glory of my whole life. I believe that I haven’t been sorry for others and myself. But I only owe Deputy Secretary Lin and Ziheng. While I’m away, you should regard Ziheng and Deputy Secretary Lin as your father and take care of them for life. You have to obey it.
“Poor Ziheng has liked me since he was a teenager, but I didn’t know his mind before. When I had doubts, I could only hide them, because I feared that my mind would be revealed to the world and only make people laugh at me. When I suffered from disaster, if it hadn’t been for Ziheng, I would never see you again. Ziheng works hard day and night and is busy with my affairs. His devotion is so clear. I didn’t realize his mind until now. But now I’m fifty and will die soon. I can never repay him. I’m really ashamed.
“In front of my bed, you have repeatedly said what had happened between you and Deputy Secretary Lin’s son, Wenxi. Although you said you were brothers, I know your mind. After all, I have known Ziheng’s mind and observed the love between two men. I only hope that you will find someone who knows you well and you two will live a safe life in the future. If Wenxi also likes you, I also will be happy after death, even though I can’t congratulate you. Lovers hope that nothing but death can end their love. I didn’t know that truth until the critical moment. But if Wenxi doesn’t like you, you also need to behave yourself. Keep it in mind!
“Although I have to avenge, I know that there is no time for me. If Deputy Secretary Lin can vindicate me, bear in mind that you have to thank him with wines and bows for me! If I won’t be vindicated, I hope you can live a good life. Remember, don’t take revenge.
“Recently, I can always dream of your mother. I can still remember your mother’s beauty and smile. But I think she might have been dead. If so, I hope that there is another life for us to meet and love. Then I will be satisfied.
“My son, don’t care about me and live a good life!
“I’m very sad that you’ll live in the world alone. I hope you will remember my wishes and be safe!”
Zhao Yuan could not help but cry and read it over and over again. Then Zheng Kai delivered it to Chen Wanxin and Chen Yuanxi.
After they read it, one was tearful and the other’s eyes turned red, and both of them took a long sigh. When Zhao Mingjiang wrote this letter, he did not know that Zheng Zihuan had determined to die with him. He also did not know that Lin Ziwei would die in another place in only half a year.
Chen Wanxin looked up and cried, ignoring that her makeup had been ruined by tears. She widened her eyes and wanted to go to Beijing to find her parents and ask them why.
