Volume 3, Chapter 63: Xiao Yu's diary

TL: flarewk

”Prez, Ma Qing Xue, I'll go out for awhile.”

There were some things, that needed to be said clearly to Xiao Yu, and since I've thought distinctly about it, I don't wish to leave behind any regrets; I just wanted to tell my heart's most frank thoughts towards her, that's all.

”Zhang Jian.....you.....need our help on it?”

”No need, it's better for the doer to undo what he's done, I'll handle this matter by myself.”

”But....your sister.....”

Of course I knew about what Prez was worrying about, and I'm not clear on what Xiao Yu was exactly thinking right now, and although there's a high probability that it's a trap, but I don't want to let this opportunity go.

”Your wound......”

”It's fine already!”

”Alright....but....you'd better bring this along too, and hide it well, this is a product of my company, the best quality of GPS ever made!”

”Thanks Prez, I'll take my move first.”

Stepping out of the entrance of the hospital, I then finally realized where I exactly had been, I didn't knew that I've returned back to my hometown, and I was still wondering where I was too......

”Today is.....Tuesday huh.....lao bà will be at home today I guess......”

Unhesitatingly, I decided to first return home to visit lao bà.

Walking on the familiarish streets, I listened to the familiar dialects conversed by pa.s.serbys, with a sense of inexpressible intimacy overcoming me. My home wasn't too far from the hospital itself, so I reached there rather quickly.

Knock, knock, knock.

I knocked onto the entrance doors, and after a moment, someone expectedly came to open it; I was right, lao bà was indeed at home today.

”You disobedient brat, so you've still dared to return home, I'll definitely break your legs today!”

”Wait wait! Lao bà, we can talk nicely, what did I do again this time!”

”Your girlfriend came all the way to our home to look for you! Spit out, where have you ran too recently, was it done by Xiao Yu!”

”It wasn't Xiao Yu, I just disobediently went missing for a period of time......”

Lao bà's expression looked to be exponentially raging, so it's better not to tell him the truth in any case.

”Ay~ yeoh, so you've grown up, and now started to get bold already eh?”

”Lao bà, don't forget, the location of where your house-savings is still in my hands, be careful that I'll tell lao mà!”

After Lao bà heard what I spoke, his expression instanteously changed from a raging exploding bull to a benovelant calmly Santa.

”My dearest son, how's life at another province, is your allowance still enough to spend? If it isn't then just let me know, anyone in the world can suffer but not children!”

As expected of Lao bà to be a society elite, this face-changing speed....tsk tsk tsk........

”I actually wanted to return home for a visit, and if there's nothing else, I'll first make a move....”

”Son, hold on, you.....go on and pick up Xiao Yu at the school...... your mom's resting tomorrow, and will return home tonight; our family.......is eating tonight.”

Lao bà gave off a sigh, and suddenly had an expression of self-loathing onto himself. Thinking about it carefully, when was the last time me and my family had a meal together....it's far too long that I've completely forgotten when it was already.

”Sigh, me and your mom usually are busy with our work, and didn't had time to bond with you all, not to mention even having the time to take care of Xiao Yu properly, hence we gave the responsibility of taking care of meimei to you, but we didn't thought that it'll become like this.... I've decided tomorrow to apply for leave for a period of time, to accompany Xiao Yu at home, help me pa.s.s this on to her.....”

”Lao bà, if there's anything to say then do it yourself!”

I unhesitatingly rejected lao bà's request without remorse, even though it's his daughter so why was he shy in the first place.......

”After you've left, Xiao Yu transferred into a boarding school, plus you went to another province as well.... that was because I who as a father didn't do his responsibilities well, if I was to be able to think about both of your feelings at that time, then now our family wouldn't be separated like this already......”

”Lao bà, enough already, actually I'm in the wrong as well, I didn't take care of meimei properly.....”

”No, it's my fault, I was too anxious for results at that time.....”

”Then as compensation, properly accompany Xiao Yu for these few days then, I'll definitely bring her back tonight!”

I only hoped that I won't be knocked unconscious again after I've located Xiao Yu........

I walked into my room and glanced around, it was still very clean inside, there's probably someone who cleaned it often, except that I didn't know who's the one doing the cleaning all these while. By the way, I've rarely entered inside Xiao Yu's room....she always refused to let me into her room, and since she's not around now anyway, I might as well go in and have a peek then.

Xiao Yu's room was very tidy, and a photograph of me and her was being displayed on the study table; that was taken when we were young, the photograph had me piggybacking Xiao Yu, and she had a pure innocent smile on her face.

I pulled open her drawer, it was empty inside, but when I wanted to close back the drawers it felt like it had gotten stuck somehow; it's probably something stuck between the layers of drawers.

”This is......”

I drew out the entire drawer, and underneath the drawer there's a pale-yellowish notebook. I picked up the notebook and flipped through it plainly, the handwriting were Xiao Yu's, and according to the contents on it, this should be a diary, which I didn't expect her to have a habit of writing a diary at all.
