Walking into the storage room, I set aside the photo album and headed straight for the cardboard box.

I took out what was inside the old suit, as I expected, it was a hardcover notebook.

I tucked the items into my arms, told the nanny I was going home, and left the villa.

Back at Grandma's house, I took out the notebook. It had a password lock, obviously untouched.

When Heman packed up the belongings, she must have been too lazy to check the pockets of the old suit, so the notebook survived.

The password lock was a 6-digit number, I tried several times without success.

With a glimmer of hope, I entered my own birthday, unexpectedly, it opened.

Turning the diary, the date on the first page was 22 years ago.

July 16, 1993

I will never forget this day, I gave Xiao Yue away.

She was only 6 years old, her voice hoarse from crying, my heart shattered into pieces.

But I still let go, and heartlessly left her.

Forgive me for being powerless,

I will work hard to earn money, I will grow up quickly, and when I am capable, I will bring Xiao Yue back.

May 18, 2005

The private detective finally found Xiao Yue's current address.

Tomorrow is Xiao Yue's birthday, with only a little money left after deducting the travel expenses, just enough to buy her a birthday cake. Will she despise her poor brother?

May 19, 2005

I feel so uneasy!

Listening to the neighbors, her foster parents have had another child, Xiao Yue is not living well.

I saw Xiao Yue, she looked thin and small, walking alone on the road.

I dare not appear in front of her, I cannot give her hope, yet disappoint her.

I want to take her away, but I still have to rely on others,

Xiao Yue, endure a little longer, brother will work hard to bring you back.

Reading this, I sniffled, what a fool!

In the diary, my brother wrote that he entrusted the birthday cake to a neighbor to pass on.

Searching my memory, it was indeed true.

Unfortunately, I only took one bite of the cake, then my brother snatched it away, and for that, I received a beating.

Since then, I have been like a wolf guarding its food, as soon as there is something good, I immediately stuff it into my mouth.

The time span of the diary is quite large, mostly revolving around Xiao Yue's presence.

Bringing me home seemed to become Gu Zhuo's obsession.

In the following years, my brother would save money to visit me in City B every year,

but each time, he never had the courage to face me.
