The Journey of Emperor Chen
Chapter 00: Death

Country China.

Beijing, August 08, 2008

Beijing is a big city in China. Beijing is the capital of the People's Republic of China and one of the most populous cities in the world with a population of over 21 million.

Silent night, with a gust of wind that feels soothing feeling. Coupled with the light of the full moon illuminated the entire Beijing City, with the stars displaying peerless beauty.

In a pretty luxurious house, Xiao Chen was sitting on a sofa with a woman beside him, a beautiful woman with black hair with light blue eyes.

"If one day I don't exist, I hope you're happy.."

Xiao Chen's voice sounded as if he was going to go far away leaving himself. Hearing this, Xiao Mei was silent, and she looked at Xiao Chen sitting next to her.

"What are you saying! Don't talk weird.." Xiao Mei said furiously.

If only Xiao Mei knew. That, Xiao Chen had a cancer within him. The illness that he had endured long enough before Xiao Chen married him. As he had a cancer, Xiao Chen never told Xiao Mei about his illness. Because, Xiao Chen did not want to make Xiao Mei worry about the current state of Xiao Chen.

"I'm sorry for talking weird stuff.." Xiao Chen apologized to Xiao Mei.

Xiao Chen and Xiao Mei had only married one week ago, their marriage was quite luxurious, inviting many guests, as well as the Xiao Mei family who had come to their wedding. Father and Mother Xiao Mei blessed their marriage. Because, the two of them knew of Xiao Mei's feelings towards Xiao Chen.

"It's okay, let's go to the room.. It's late at night.." Reply Xiao Mei while taking Xiao Chen to the room.

The cold of the night, now turned into spring for newly married lovers, in a room there were voices that spoiled the ears, with the chirping of birds heard to the rhythm of the tune. Spring night lasts from time to time until several hours pass.

Inside the room, precisely on the bed, Xiao Mei fell asleep next to her with her hands hugging Xiao Chen tightly. As for Xiao Chen who had yet to sleep, he looked at the ceiling of his room with a look of restraining his feelings.

Suppose that.. Time can turn back! I must be a very happy man! You can marry a woman as beautiful as her!

Thinking of her leaving, and thinking of Xiao Mei who would be grieving, made her unable to do anything to dispel this guilt. Xiao Chen slowly let go of his wife's embrace, he gently let go of her embrace, because Xiao Chen wanted to go to make a letter for her.

After Xiao Chen let go of his wife's embrace, he put on the clothes he had previously worn. After he finished wearing his clothes, he rushed to find a paper and pen to make his last letter.

Nah.. Xiao Mei, as you read this letter, please, please don't be sad...

There's a lot I want to do with you, but my illness can't give me much longer. I've been to various hospitals, but as a result, they've all been unable to treat it.

I don't know what else to say here, I can only apologize to you.. I'm sorry, sorry for not being able to make you happy like my old promise... I'm sorry I can't be with you... I'm sorry I can't be beside you with our son later.”

I hope you are happy.

Xiao Chen's.

As Xiao Chen wrote the letter on the table, he could not stop dripping his tears that continued to flow down. Without realizing it, her tears had already become a small puddle on the floor. After he finished writing the letter, he folded it and put it on the table, just before returning to bed, he saw the clock that marked midnight in a moment.

Xiao Chen returned to the top of the bed, then Xiao Chen hugged Xiao Mei gently with a final kiss on his forehead, with tears that did not want to lose him.

"I hope you're happy, baby!"

The last words that Xiao Chen could say to his wife. With the gusts of the night wind added with the silence of the night so silent, the moon emitted a bright light shining on Beijing City.

The keg! The keg!

The sound of a clock that rang in the middle room of his house, the sound of a wall clock that showed exactly 12 pm.

At the same time, the celestial fairies began flying around the world to pick up people who went to the afterlife.

At that very instant, Xiao Chen was already lifeless, he entered an eternal slumber and would never be able to open his eyes again.
