Chapter 4: Mother's Last Wishes

Lu Kaiwen sat quietly in the dark, and there was only the faint moonlight cast in from the window in the study. Heavy wheezing echoes through the room could be heard in the silence.

After the funeral song ended, Kevin Lu couldn't wait to rush into the study, and the door was also locked by him. The housekeeper and the service staff were so amuseful that they didn't bother him. They just took turns to stand by the door and wait according to Cheng Mengqiu's instructions when he left.

Kevin Lu sat behind a large desk, clutching an envelope tightly. On the envelope was a line in Juanxiu's Chinese: "To my dear son." Lu Kaiwen's hand kept shaking, and his eyes began to blur again. But he didn't wipe the tears from his eyes, let alone tear open the envelope. Faced with the sudden death of his mother and his mother who suddenly refused to meet him in the past two years, Lu Kaiwen felt a trace of resentment in his heart, mixed with a trace of worry. In his memory, his mother has always been melancholy and busy. Some of her bizarre behaviors have always been curious. In this sunny place in California, she always draws the black gauze curtain tightly, and she always seems to stay in the dark. She always supervises herself, and her seriousness and majesty are Lu Kaiwen's deepest impression of his mother. But Kevin Lu remembered that before going to college, his mother always took him with him, almost never leaving. But after going to college, his mother categorically refused him to go home, and Lu Kaiwen, who only returned home in the first year of three years, once stubbornly protested, but his mother dispelled his mind with a more brutal refusal.

All these questions may be in the letters that my mother left to her. The mother's secret may also be answered in this letter. There was perhaps more to him know. The lines on the envelope were emotions that his mother had never revealed, and it made Lu Kaiwen have mixed feelings. Kevin Lu was so nervous that he didn't dare to tear up the letter for a long time. He was just immersed in reverie.

A long reverie was interrupted by a knock at the door.

"Young Master, are you going to have dinner?" Outside the door was the housekeeper Zhang Wusheng's soft inquiry.

Kevin Lu rubbed his eyes, and only then did he realize that there was only moonlight in the house. He fumbled and turned on the lamp on the table. After a moment's hesitation, he slowly began to tear gently along the edge of the envelope, he was careful, as if he was afraid of tearing the letter inside.

There were a few more knocks on the door outside, and then there was silence again.

Kevin Lu unfolded the letter, his hand already steady. Breathing also becomes even.

"Kevin. By the time you read this letter, Mom has gone to heaven. Mom must be very happy there. Mom can let go of everything, there is no sin to atone for, only blessings and attention for you.

When you were a child, you used to ask your mom who your dad was. At that time, my mother told you that your father was a very good man, but he died young. Actually, Mom doesn't know who your dad is. You were adopted by your mother from a church orphanage. You were just four years old at the time. Forgive Mom for telling you now. Kevin is now a man, and Mom can rest assured to tell you.

Adopting you is the fate of our mother and son. Mom, thank you, you gave my mother sustenance, and gave my mother hope.

Mom is not a qualified mother, Mom is always punishing herself, always influencing you with her own loneliness. If I went back in time, my mother would not do this, but after all, nothing can be changed, and I hope my son is still sunny and happy. Happy forever.

Child, you must have been strange about some of your mother's withdrawn behavior. Now it's time to tell you. Know your mother's heart and help her fulfill her greatest wish behind her. I handed over the burden of the company to you, just to increase your strength and increase your sense of responsibility. But no one can force you to do something you don't want to do, and neither can Mom. I hope you will read this letter and make what you think is the most correct decision for you. Mom bless you in heaven. My children, my dearest loved ones.

Mom is from a beautiful coastal city in China FJ. My mother's parents were both fishermen, and they were both killed during a fishing trip, when my mother was 13 years old. My mother was the daughter of a fisherman, and at that time, during the special period in China, my mother did not have the conditions to study. So my mother followed my uncle's family and began to make snacks to support herself. The mother is not sad, the fisherman's child is ready to lose his parents at any time, and the mother is still living happily. My aunt's frequent troubles did not affect my mother's simplicity and happiness.

Mom's happiness lasted until the summer of 1983, when she met a college student who came to our village for an internship. He was like a ray of sunshine shining into his mother's life. Mom was fascinated by everything about him, his bright smile, his chic movements, and the way his thick volatilization flew against the sea breeze is still deeply imprinted in Mom's mind to this day.

Mom was lucky, maybe it was fate that the boy also fell in love with Mom. Mom thought she was the happiest person in the world at the time. But my mother never imagined that this would be the beginning of my mother's life's pain.

Mom is the daughter of the sea, Mom doesn't know how to be reserved, Mom only knows that she has to dedicate her most precious things to the people she loves the most. Mom is desperate to taste the deliciousness of love. That year, shortly after the boy left, Mom found out she was pregnant. Mom was 22 years old that year.

Mom was excited to find a boys' school. That's a big aquatic academy in SH. The boy was happy at first, he took his mother around, and he told her that he was about to graduate and he wanted to create the best family for her. Mom was really happy during that time.

But the mother gradually noticed that the boy was becoming more and more melancholy, and his words were becoming more and more flickering. Mom finally found the answer, and his parents found him a marriage, which was a family of powerful officials. Mom was stunned, but Mom was unwilling, Mom begged her parents without hesitation, and they humiliated her and drove her away again and again. Mom tries to ask for the boy's help, but he always holds back until one day he tells his mom about his decision to break up. Mom broke down. At this time, his mother told him the fact that his mother was pregnant, and his mother wanted to give it to him as a gift on his graduation day, but after all, she told him half a month before that as a threat. What the mother couldn't bear was that the boy's bright smile turned into a cruel sneer. The moment he walked away, his mother's heart broke. This heart has been broken until now.

Mom is the daughter of the sea, the loss of her parents did not make her lose hope, and the unmarried pregnancy will not make her mother fall. My mother returned to her hometown by the sea and gave birth to her mother's daughter in the eyes of the villagers. She has eyes as bright as her father's. She was as pure as the moon and as beautiful as the azaleas in her mother's hometown.

To be strong, the mother can give her daughter a good future in order to prove that she can do so. My mother and some people in the village were smuggled into the United States with the help of Uncle Cheng, who had already come to Los Angeles. The child, who was only half a year old, was entrusted to his uncle. But soon after, my mother received bad news, and my uncle abandoned the child in order to dispel my mother's thoughts, and even more so to erase the shame that my mother brought to their family.

At that moment, Mom's only jīng god pillar was gone. Mom is crazy. It wasn't until Uncle Cheng brought you here that my mother was a little sober.

Mom's story is over. Now my mother tells you that my mother has known that she has heart disease, and my mother refuses to treat it, and my mother is punishing herself, and my mother wants to atone for her sins with pain. Mom is a sinner, and mom is a sinner for her daughter. Mom's refusal to let you go home for the past two years is also a punishment for yourself. The mother does not know if the daughter is lonely, but the mother must die alone so that the mother will have peace of mind.

Kevin, Mom begs you to do your best to help Mom find Mommy's daughter. Tell her that her mother loves her and that she has not abandoned her. Mom has been looking for her all her life. Mom wants to see her daughter's happiness, she wants to see her angel, my Kerr.

Kevin. Find Nimker. Love her. By her side all her life. This is Mom's only wish. Mom is tired, but in heaven I am still looking for my daughter, my angel......

Farewell, Kevin, Kerr. My children. Love your moms. ”

White paper flowers fall on the desk, and a photograph falls slowly on the soft carpet.

Tears flowed down Kevin's knife-like cheeks. His vision was completely blurred.

"Mom, Kerr...... Rather ......," the young man muttered.
