Song Yunshen didn't rush to read the diary's contents. He fell into deep thought and began to reconsider the practical purpose of this Future Diary.
For the past two weeks, he had been passively waiting for Future Diary updates.
The update date is completely randomized each time.
Sometimes I write recent diary entries every two or three days for several days in a row.
Sometimes, however, the timeline jumps across more than a decade, leaping directly to the period when he would later suffer a painful divorce.
For Song Yunshen, this uncertainty made it extremely difficult to obtain useful information.
Often, obtaining useful information is entirely a matter of luck.
But what if he could control the corresponding dates of the diary updates?
The date he wrote [October 5, 2035] last time was not a random choice, but an attempt made after careful consideration.
After all, Song Yunshen Shen's birthday is October 5th, so choosing this day would likely allow him to glean some clues from Xia Jinshu's diary.
The year chosen, 2035, is the year before his divorce.
According to his previous diary entries, he was still dating Xia Jinshu in 2032.
Even if we get married in the future, it will probably be two or three years before it's considered normal.
So he specifically chose 2035 as the timeframe to test whether he would be married by then.
Unfortunately, the first attempt failed; after writing down the date, the corresponding diary entry did not appear.
But as several days passed, the original writing faded more and more until it disappeared completely.
The latest update happens to be the diary entry for the date he wrote previously!
In other words...
If he wants to read a specific date's entry in the future, he can write down the date first, and once his handwriting has completely disappeared, the Future Diary date.
Since this was only the first attempt, Song Yunshen wasn't entirely sure.
What if it really is just a coincidence?
But this was such a coincidence that he could only follow the logic and reason in this way.
As for whether it's true or not, we'll have to wait until he finishes reading the diary before trying.
Having thought all this through, Song Yunshen finally composed himself and began reading the diary entries from the beginning.
[October 5, 2035, Cloudy]
Today is Song Yunshen's birthday.
Even though I had already chosen to let go, I still bought him a birthday present.
But in what capacity or under what name should I give it to him?
Perhaps not disturbing each other is the better choice for both of us.
I just received their wedding invitation a couple of days ago; the wedding is set for December 30th.
[They're probably celebrating Song Yunshen's birthday right now?]
I don't know if I'll regret this choice in the future.
Perhaps I was never meant to have beautiful things.
Since things have come to this, let's just wish them well.
[As for a birthday gift, it's probably best not to give one.]
[So as not to affect their marital relationship]
[After all, she doesn't know that I dated Song Yunshen ----]
Let this beautiful memory remain.
After reading the diary, Song Yunshen scratched his head, thinking to himself that he was still quite charming, even after breaking up, Xia Jinshu still couldn't forget him.
However, judging from the contents of this diary, it seems that Xia Jinshu actively chose to break up?
But he seemed very unwilling to give up.
So why did I abandon Xia Jinshu and choose to marry someone else in the future?
It's really baffling.
And to make matters worse, he even sent his ex-girlfriend a wedding invitation—what a dramatic turn of events!
Based on Song Yunshen's current thinking, if he were to get married in the future, he definitely wouldn't give this thing to his ex-girlfriend.
This is like rubbing salt into someone's wound.
It couldn't have been his future wife's idea, could it?
Do I really have to witness my husband's ex-girlfriend's emotional breakdown?
Unfortunately, after reading through the entire diary, he still doesn't know who his future wife will be.
Xia Jinshu doesn't seem to like writing other women's names. I only ever see Song Yunshen's name; everyone else's names are replaced with third-person pronouns.
I don't know what's wrong with me.
Song Yunshen sighed, feeling that his future romantic experiences were full of twists and turns, and he didn't know if he could rewrite this tragic ending.
With that thought in mind, he picked up his pen and tentatively wrote a date on a new page.
[December 30, 2035]
Now that we know our wedding date, we should at least find out more about it.
Based on the previous pattern, it will probably be several more days before we see new diary entries.
but.
The Future Diary has another function, Song Yunshen hasn't forgotten.
Once the real-world time catches up with the dates in the Future Diary, the corresponding "old diary" will be replaced by the content of the "new diary" written by Xia Jinshu in the present.
This happened once before, on June 28th.
Tomorrow is July 5th. Song Yunshen flipped through his Future Diary and found a previous update dated July 5th.
The above mainly describes Xia Jinshu's first time working part-time at a milk tea shop.
He has now rewritten the future.
Logically speaking, we should be able to see Xia Jinshu's new diary entry tomorrow.
I wonder how she will evaluate her first experience as a tutor.
Thinking of this, Song Yunshen reached out and took out his diary. After a moment's thought, he began to write in his diary for the day.
[Friday, July 4, 2025]
Summer vacation is finally here!
[I've already ordered some computer parts. Once I save up a little more money, I'll just buy the 5090 and then I can really enjoy playing games.]
[I added Xia Yunuo on WeChat this afternoon while playing games. She's going to her uncle's place tomorrow for a tutor interview. I gave her a heads-up beforehand, so there shouldn't be any major problems.]
[From now on, during summer vacation I'll go to tutoring classes in the morning, accompany Yingying to her classes in the afternoon, wait for Xia Jinshu to come for her English class, and play games in the evening.]
This is a good arrangement.
[Sigh... If only I didn't have to go to tutoring classes at school, I really don't want to get up early...]
Thankfully, there are no early morning study sessions during summer vacation, so I can sleep until after 7 a. m.
[Hopefully Xia Jinshu won't teach as seriously as Xia Yunuo. I can slack off a bit, and she can just go through the motions; an hour will pass quickly.]
[Dad can't be watching the security camera all the time when he's on vacation.]
[Oh my gosh, I can't wait to see my new computer!]
[Don't rush to play Genshin Impact these next few days. Take your time. You can play it properly when you get a new computer.]
[I might consider indulging Lao Xu for a bit, and reluctantly play a game of PUBG with him.]
Tangning New Residence East District.
After reading Song Yunshen's diary, Xia Jinshu chuckled softly and then buried herself in perfecting the English lesson plan she had been preparing for a long time.
Let's paddle in the water? Or catch some fish?
Young man, you're dreaming.
If you don't work on improving your English, how can you justify the 3,000 yuan salary she gets?
