Translator: 549690339
The day the diary ended was the day before Wu Xiwen graduated from university and married Li Muchen.
From then on, the diary did not record anything else. However, the things that happened after the marriage were still vivid in Li Muchen’s mind.
The record in the diary was also Wu Xiwen’s favorite record when she was alive. It was an album by a female singer from Taiwan called ” The Lost Sandbank.”
Before he saw the diary, Li Muchen had followed Wu Xiwen to listen to this song. Even now, this was the only song that was played in his car.
Li Muchen narrowed his eyes and picked up the record. He blew on it gently and a thin layer of dust flew into the air.
Out of nowhere, he turned around and walked to the sound room next door. He reached out and pulled down the huge white cloth cover on the entire set of sound equipment. He connected the power and stuffed the record inside.
After a melodious accompaniment began, a pure female voice began to sing.
” I’ve come to this port again, detained for no reason. My heart is in a mottled boat, searching for the lost sandbar;
As time goes by, the waves drift. I spread my hands and embraced so many ups and downs. What I miss is the way you looked at me.
I don’t want you to come back. It’s just that when I look at the sea alone again, I turn around and find that you’re not there, leaving me to wander around in a roundabout way.
I don’t want you to come back, but when I open my memories again, who else can teach me love except you?
I don’t want you to come back. It’s just that when I look at the sea alone, the tired figure is not me, not the me you want to see.
I don’t want you to come back, but when I walk into the sea of people alone, who else can teach me to be brave except for you?”
Li Muchen was still standing by the window after the song ended. His hands were trembling slightly as he took the cigarette out from his thin lips and blew out a thin puff of smoke.
Silence returned to the sound system room. Li Muchen did not walk back to the room. He stood there until he finished smoking his cigarette before he turned around and walked towards the CD player.
Just as he reached out, the quiet CD player suddenly started to make noise. Li Muchen frowned and a soft and gentle female voice suddenly came from inside.
“November 9th, 2009.1 finally mustered up the courage to continue my diary here because I found out that I was pregnant. The pregnancy period was 33 days. Hehe, the doctor said that I couldn’t have an abortion. Otherwise, I might not be able to have another child for the rest of my life. I could only tell the doctor that I would think about it. At night, when I was having dinner at the old house, I couldn’t help but feel nauseous. When I vomited, Aunt Hui saw something amiss and ran out to tell Grandpa and Mom and Dad. Looking at the happy and excited expressions on their faces, my heart felt as if it was being torn apart. If they knew that the child in my stomach was not Ah Chen’s, what kind of attitude would they have towards me?”
Li Muchen’s hands hung by his sides and clenched into fists silently. He gritted his teeth unconsciously.
After Wu Xiwen’s death, she had played this record a few times, but every time she played a song, she would turn it off. She didn’t expect that behind it was her recording diary!
After a few seconds, Wu Xiwen’s voice slowly came out from the CD player again,”
“January 3rd, 2010. The doctor said that my child is developing very well and has safely passed the three-month critical period. I cried. My parents thought that I was too happy. In fact, I was just blaming myself and feeling pain. Because of this child, from the first second it existed in my body, I hated it so much that I wanted to kill it! If I hadn’t run away from the wedding because Chen Chen couldn’t recognize me on the day of the wedding, maybe I wouldn’t have met that group of homeless people. That painful nightmare might never have befallen me…However, there was no medicine for regret in this world..”
