Chapter 14 — Both Lives – We Live Well

“Ta Tieu Quy… you… Does your crown prince have someone in his heart?”

“Still liking it for nearly ten years?”

Hearing that, Ta Tieu Quy glanced at me and Ta Truong Thanh with a strange expression. But still seriously replied:

“Bam Young Lady, that's right.”

It turns out there really is someone in my heart... I looked at Ta Tieu Quy, thought for a moment and then asked:

"Are you married yet? Or engaged? Is there any lady you like? Have you been married yet?"

Ta Tieu Quy was stunned. I don't understand why the story turned to him. But still seriously answer:

“Bam Young Lady, this young lady is not yet engaged, and no lady is paying attention.”

“There are still about two years left before entering the civil service.”

Ta Tieu Quy was just stunned. But when Ta Truong Thanh heard Tieu Ninh Tinh's question, he seemed to realize something. Eyes slightly opened wide. An unbelievable feeling arose in my heart. After hearing Ta Tieu Quy's words, I frowned and asked again:

"So you've reached the age of marriage, why aren't you married or engaged yet?"

Ta Tieu Quy naturally replied:

“Because the Crown Prince hasn't gotten married yet.”

We ask:

“What if Ta Truong Thanh never gets married in his whole life?”

Ta Tieu Quy replied:

"Then I won't get married for the rest of my life."

“If the Crown Prince doesn't get married, wouldn't it be very lonely to be alone?”

“I was picked up and raised by the Crown Prince.”

“Your Highness is lonely, of course I have to stay by your side to keep you company.”

The answer was like lightning hitting my ears. This is the reason why in his previous life, the little guy next to Ta Truong Thanh did not get married in his entire life. After I finished asking, I let Ta Tieu Quy leave. Ta Truong Thanh watched his servant retreat and close the door. That long-standing patience finally broke out. Unable to bear it any longer, he called out loudly:

“Ta Tieu Quy, tomorrow you immediately go find a girl for this Crown Prince to marry!!!”

In the capital, there are rumors so absurd that he and the little monk have a long-distance relationship! It's too much!!! Hai Ninh Tinh misunderstood him as a piece of cake! Hearing that, Ta Tieu Quy did not understand what was going on. The hand that was closing the door also stopped. But getting married is a good thing. He happily replied:

"Yes, Crown Prince! Then tomorrow, I will take the day off and go ask the matchmaker to see me!"

Hearing the joy in that voice... I immediately knew that this little businessman really wanted to get married. Not a condensation. After Ta Tieu Quy left. The room suddenly fell into a strange silence. I'm a little embarrassed. In any case, I misunderstood people as being paralyzed. Also misunderstand the relationship between master and servant as a love of separation. Ta Truong Thanh turned his head to look at Tieu Ninh Tinh and explained:

“I picked up Ta Tieu Quy on the side of the road when I was less than three years old.”

“At that time, he was only two or three months old, so hungry that his skin was covered with bones, and it was cold, so he almost died.”

"I picked him up and raised him, and after that he was always by my side as my little servant."

“I do take care of him, but I only consider him a younger brother.”

“Absolutely no separation of any kind!!!”

Mentioning the two words "stop gathering", Ta Truong Thanh gritted his teeth. This misunderstanding is truly too big! I'm even more embarrassed. Also in my previous life, this rumor sounded too well-founded. Otherwise I wouldn't believe it either! At this point, I don't know how to face him. At that moment, Ta Truong Thanh said:

“She didn't ask I…”

"Who do I like in the end?"

“He likes it, when he was a child he came to my palace a few times.”

"Once, in the garden, I was slandered by someone."

"It was that person who followed every clue, found the truth, and cleared my name."

"Since then... I have liked that intelligent girl with bright eyes and white teeth."

When I heard this, I felt something was wrong. Instinctively, he looked away. Ta Truong Thanh looked at Tieu Ninh Tinh and said plaintively:

“That person... his name is Tieu Ninh Tinh.”

“That person has a marriage contract with me.”

“Today you became friends with me.”

“And now… sitting right in front of me!”

The person I've liked for nearly ten years... Misunderstands me for being broken. How could he not be resentful! This feeling is really bad to the extreme! Don't let him know who actually spread that rumor! I listen to Ta Truong Thanh. At first, when I heard the name Tieu Ninh Tinh, I still held a little luck in my heart. Maybe it's just the same name as me. In our previous life, we worked together for more than half of our lives... I never heard that he liked me. Now suddenly you say you like me... It makes me a little panicked, not knowing how to react. But when Ta Truong Thanh said that person was sitting right in front of him... I had no way to hide anymore. Ta Truong Thanh actually likes me! It's unbelievable! I couldn't believe it and looked over. But as soon as I met Ta Truong Thanh's sad, self-pitying eyes... I immediately turned my head away. There was still some guilt in my heart.
