"You can see what's inside when you're home, let's go," Grandfather Yang reminded the two, who appeared emotionally stirred as they stared at the boxes in their hands.
Sheng Jiaoyang blinked and suppressed her tears. She turned to look at the box in Shen Zhining's hand. What kind of gift did mother prepare for Shen Zhining? She wanted to know, but she knew that no matter how curious she was, he wouldn't show it to her. Likewise, she also wouldn't show her gift to him even if he asked, humph!
At the bank's exit, they split up and went their separate ways.
Sheng Jiaoyang naturally left with Grandfather Yang. In the car, she impatiently opened the box.
An envelope lay on top which read 'Jiaojiao'.
Sheng Jiaoyang's hand trembled as she picked up the envelope. She turned to look at her grandfather, took a deep breath, and slowly opened it.
Darling,
Mother envisions that by the time you read this letter, you must be wearing a beautiful wedding dress and ready to go to the wedding venue. However, it's a pity that I couldn't see all this.
The most blissful thing in my life was giving birth to you. When I learned that I was pregnant, I was as happy as a poor person winning the lottery, but then the doctor's following words poured cold water on me. He said that with my physical condition, I wasn't allowed to get pregnant because it was very dangerous. And, if I insisted on having a baby, I might die in the delivery room. At that time, I pondered about this and hesitated. But, in the end, I chose to give birth to you.
When you were born and I saw you for the first time, I felt that even if I had to go through worse pain to give birth to you, it was all worth it! My little darling, on the first day, you stared at many people with a pair of adorable round eyes, and no one could resist your cuteness. Even your grandfather, who grumbled about the fact that I insisted on giving birth to you, never said a word of complaint to me anymore after seeing you.
Your eyes resembled that of your father, bright and clear, with a touch of ingenuity. You've been smart ever since you were a child, and you learned everything very quickly.
Darling, I'm sorry. How I wish that I could shower you with infinite love every day. Every morning, the thought that today might be my last day appears in my mind, hence I wanted to teach you as many things as possible. That way, even if we were all gone in the future, you could still take care of yourself. So, while other children were still playing games and eating lollipops, you were learning to read, and while other children were laughing and having fun, you were learning to control your emotions. I'm really sorry for pushing you to adulthood when you were supposed to be enjoying your childhood as an innocent and unconcerned little girl.
When Ningning came to our house that year, I noticed that you started smiling more even though he also made you cry more often. Only then did I realise that you didn't have any friends. How could a five-year-old child not have any friends? You might not remember, but I later asked you why you didn't play with other children. You replied that other children were too childish and were unpleasant to the eye. At that time, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Afterwards, I asked you, "Ningning ignores you all the time, so why do you still want to play with him?" Take a guess at what you said.
You said, "Brother Zhining is very good-looking!"
I really wonder, would you feel embarrassed now that you're reading what you said back then?
Ningning is a good child. I believe that you'll be very happy if you're together with him. Of course, I earnestly hope that you two end up together.
