Dying Chinese man leaves savings to ex, expressing love in letter despite their break-up
In the farewell letter, Xiao expresses his hope that if there is an afterlife, he would reunite with Hu and spend more time with her
A dying man in China left his savings to his ailing ex-girlfriend, along with a heartfelt farewell letter that touched the hearts of many online.
The 22-year-old Hu Xinyao, from Chongqing in southwestern China, had been battling a vascular disease for eight years, which progressively led to kidney failure.
Last year, Hu met Xiao through a mutual friend, according to the mainland media outlet Ziniu News.
Xiao, an auxiliary police officer from Inner Mongolia, was known for his gentle, introverted nature and immense kindness.
Despite Hu’s severe illness, he devoted himself to her care, and the two quickly fell in love.
However, after two months together, Hu’s condition deteriorated, and she received several critical illness notifications.
