Chapter 157 - The Diary

"Wang Wei,I am writing this diary for you.I know,soon it will be time for you to come out of prison.I have just come back home after burying your beloved,Xu Tao.I am sorry for not taking good care of her.The fates were not in favor of your meeting..I do not know where you are.Xu Tao told me that she had been writing to you so I hope that you will be able to come find me.I don't know how long I will live so this diary is going to be my voice to you.You did not know that Xu Tao was pregnant when you were imprisoned and I am sorry but I forbade Xu Tao totell you.I did not want you to do something rash when you came to know.I wish you could come and see your baby when he was born!I am sorry for not being able to keep you from harm.The things I have to apologize to you for are increasing everyday.I have done something terrible to you as well as the people who were kind to me.Wei ah,you must know that we were in a bad condition when we escaped.Xu Tao was already 6 months pregnant and those goons hired by that family were always chasing us.We were saved by a couple and they brought us home.Mrs Long was also pregnant and Mr Long was a kind young lawyer.They were my age and had only now been blessed with a baby in the womb.They gave us shelter as well as protected us from those goons.

I can only curse the fates for what happened after that.Mrs Long and your Xu Tao went into labor on the same day.Though Xu Tao had been nourished in the last three onths f her pregnancy,the stress of the first few months had taken a toll on her body.On the other hand the Long's suffered from the birth of a still born baby.Mr Long was disappointed and did not know how to give the news to his wife.I looked at Xu Tao who was losing her battle with life and taking away your child gave it to Mr Long.I told Xu Tao that she had given birth to a still born daughter.I lied to the woman who was breathing her last,the woman,I considered my daughter but I was selfish.I wanted your child to have the love of both parents.Also I did not know when those goons would catch up with us and I wanted to keep the baby safe.

Mr Long promised to keep my secret and he held a service for Xu Tao and buried his daughter with her.He promised to take this secret with him to the grave and to love him like his own son.And he fulfilled his promise.I had thought to leave from here after today but he has asked me to stay here and look after my grandson!Though I cannot be his grandma I am going to watch over him.I hope you will find us soon so that I can beg for your forgiveness.

From now on,I will diligntly write about the milestones of your son so that you can feel those that you will miss.Come back soon my son."

Wang Wei had finished reading the first page of the diary and did not dare to turn to the next page.He had hated the Longs' for so muchtime.He had blamed them for the death of his wife as well as for snatching their son.He had found out long ago that Ruan Long was his flesh and blood.Even then he had planned his murder.The murder of his son.But he had felt justified.Not even in his worst nightmare had he imagined that the truth was so different from what he had gleaned.He thought back to the time when he had found his Xu Tao and daughter's grave.He had sat there in that graveyard for almost a week before going from there with the vow to return only when he had avenged their deaths.It had taken him three years to complete his vow.But only on returning did he come to know that his xu Tao's grave had been desecrated.

After careful research he came to know that the people who had kindly buried the person were also the ones who had been responsible for this.He was told that the child buried within the grave was taken away to be buried else where while this grave was left as it is with the stone damaged.

He did not what had happened and why.The Lon's had already moved to a different city and nobody knew where to find them.When Wang Wei tried to find answers,he only recieved blocked ends and bits and pieces.It was only after his son had turned 30 when he came to know about his existence.His son looked like a younger version of him.Ruan Long had been featured in a newspaper for being the youngest billionaire in the country.His intellect had been praised alongwith a brief history of his birth and parents origin.He renewed his search with a solid lead and this time found answers that pointed in a different direction than what this diary told him.
