Transmigrating: I Married the Male Protagonist's Uncle

Chapter 997: Became a Mystery

[97.12.5]

He has a wife. Everyone in the capital is talking about her. His wife is very pretty, adorable, and sensible. It’s just that she’s much younger than him.

Many people in the capital are secretly gossiping about him. They say he’s a beast in human clothing, but I know that he’s gentle and honorable. He won’t bully his little wife.

[97.12.7]

I secretly stood by the side and saw his little madam. She was small and adorable. I told myself that I could give up now. This is enough.

From today on, my one-sided crush is ending. I’ve decided to give up on him, but I know that I’ll never be able to let him go.

…

This was the end of the diary entries. There were blank pages at the back.

Until…

[99.1.1]

He left.

When she flipped further back, she saw many blank pages.

That was till the year before her sister passed away.

[08.3.17]

He looks so much like him. I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been sick for too long that something’s wrong with my eyes. I actually mistook the boy for him at some point.

Is he his son? Impossible. How can he have such a grown son? He should be his younger brother?

…

[09.2.14]

My physical condition is terrible. I may not be able to last much longer. I’m leaving soon too. Will I be able to see him after I leave?

…

[09.2.17]

Today, I heard many things. Ever since I got sick, Grandpa, Dad, and Mom were afraid that my illness would deteriorate, so they didn’t tell me about many things.

Shui Shui had not come to see me again since I fell sick.

It turns out that they all thought that the person I like is Second Yan.

However, why does even Shui Shui think so? She clearly knows that I’m the one who told her to pursue Second Yan boldly.

Is there a problem with my memory, or is there a problem with this world’s memory?

I asked Meng Meng, my parents, and everyone I could ask. However, no one could tell me the answer. Who else should I ask?

That’s right. What’s his name? Why have I forgotten about this too? Exactly what’s the name of that person I like?

[09.5.18]

I remember that today is a very important day. What day is it? I actually can’t remember.

Yesterday, I was seriously ill, but today, my body felt lighter and my complexion has also improved. However, none of my family members could feel happy.

Just like me, they all know very well that this is just terminal lucidity.

[09.5.18]

21.18

I remember now.

It turns out that today is the day I had confessed to him 12 years ago.

I remember his name now.

This is my last diary entry.

Meng Meng, my dear sister, if you are lucky enough to see this diary after I die, please pass it to Shui Shui and Second Yan.

Tell Dad and Mom that I love them. I love you too. I love all of you.

Ling Sheng did not know what was written in the diary. After all, it was a personal belonging. She only saw Dongfang Meng hugging the diary and crying like a child.

After crying for a long, long time, she passed the diary to Ling Sheng and warned while staring at her. “You’re not allowed to read it! Give it to him!”

Her sister’s last wish was for her to show the diary to Second Yan and Wen Ruoshui.

However, why didn’t she know that her sister liked another man, and he was even a married man at that? Who was ‘he’ in her sister’s diary?

Throughout China, exactly which man was worthy of her affection? Who was worth her love for her entire lifetime? Her sister was no longer around, so everything had become a mystery. There was no way to find out or verify it.

However, the only thing she was sure about was that the person her sister had liked was not Second Yan. For an extremely long time, they had misunderstood.

After Yan Yuanfei finished reading every word, he felt very rueful and touched. He looked at Dongfang Meng and said, “Second Miss, if the person written in the diary is the love of your sister’s life, I can confirm that it’s not me.”

Was this man she liked a lot someone from the capital? Was he someone he knew? When she wrote that he had left, did it mean he had passed away?

She had written that the man’s delicate wife was younger than him. How much younger was she? And how old was that man? He thought for a long time, but he could not recall anyone in the capital who perfectly fit the description of the man in the diary.

“I know it’s not you.” Dongfang Meng was so uncomfortable that her chest felt as though it was about to explode from her bottled-up feelings. She bellowed at Ling Sheng, “What are you looking at?! What are you looking at? Haven’t you seen someone cry before?!”

“Just because you feel miserable after reading the diary, why are you venting your anger on me?” Ling Sheng retorted indignantly. “Am I your punching bag?”

But Dongfang Meng ignored her and looked at Yan Yuanfei. “Go and give her the diary!”

Yan Yuanfei said, “I can’t. Get Sheng Sheng to go!”

Dongfang Meng simply didn’t trust this damn brat in front of her. If she gave it to her, she would definitely sneak a peek. “No, I can’t give it to her.”

Yan Yuanfei asked, “Then, is Second Miss planning to send it over personally?”

Dongfang Chu had mentioned that Shui Shui knew about this matter. If Shui Shui knew which man she liked, why would she still feel guilty and upset all day long because she had passed away from illness?

Dongfang Meng would not go either. When Wen Ruoshui had come to China, she had gone over to teach her a lesson and even struck her physically. Asking her to apologize? That was impossible. She could not put down her pride now. She gave Ling Sheng a disdainful sidelong look.

“I’m not a thief. Why are you looking at me like that?” Ling Sheng was peeved. She growled angrily. “I won’t read it. Why would I read someone else’s diary?”

Dongfang Meng still wouldn’t trust her. This damn brat did not look like an honest child at all. Her foul temper was exactly the same as that shameless father of hers, not to mention that she also had an even more scheming mother. She had definitely inherited all of her parents’ craftiness.

“Yan Yuanfei, I still need to give this matter further thought. Give me some time,” Dongfang Chu looked at him and said seriously.

Ling Sheng immediately cut in, “Eh, Second Miss Dongfang, that’s not what we agreed on just now. Now that the matter has already been clarified… You’ve bullied my Second Uncle like a fool for more than 20 years. Give this matter further thought? How long do you guys want to think about this? You can’t be so dishonest as a person.”

Dongfang Meng choked on a mouthful of blood from her words and pointed at her, her whole body trembling due to anger. “I already said, I need some time.”

Yan Yuanfei tugged at Ling Sheng. Upon seeing how she was chasing the issue like a dog after a bone, his heart warmed. He looked toward Dongfang Meng gently. “Sheng Sheng doesn’t know any better. Second Miss, don’t mind her. It’s fine as long as we know about this matter ourselves. I’m a dying person. I don’t need anyone to clear my name.”

“Second Uncle, you can’t say that. The Dongfang Family went too far. They don’t even know who their own daughter likes, yet they turned you into a scapegoat. How can we let this go so easily?” Actually, Ling Sheng did not have the confidence to finish her sentence either.

After all, the person the eldest daughter of the Dongfang Family had had a crush on was the Third Master. She would wait to raise this issue again when he awakened.

In the end, Dongfang Meng still handed the diary to Ling Sheng. While watching her get in the car, she even knocked on the door and warned her sternly, “If you dare to take a peek, you better watch out for your skin[1]!”
