Chapter 5 — Break Destiny, Embrace Happiness

I have no way to avoid it anymore. Just as he was about to find an explanation, Hua Tan Nien spoke first: "Come here." I didn't move. He smiled bitterly: "What? Are you afraid I'll eat you?" I walked closer. “Hua Tan Nien, are you okay?” “Can't die.” I reflexively frowned: "I was scared to death just now!" "You're such an idiot! There are so many of them, don't you know how to hide?!" "If I hadn't arrived in time, you would have been disfigured and injured. It would have been too late to repent!" I don't understand why - I'm getting angrier and angrier, my eyes are starting to heat up. Hua Tan Nien was stunned for a few seconds. Then suddenly curled her lips: "If I get beaten up, will you not like me anymore?" “I, I…” This question… how can I answer it? Normally I have a quick mouth, and I said the words "I like you" faster than drinking water. But now it's stuck in my throat. Hua Tan Nien raised his eyebrows, his eyes softened: "Don't worry, I'm not that weak." “So… you should be a little more careful!” “You want to take care of me?” No... I just don't want Tinh Nhiem to worry. He raised his eyebrows, his expression seemed to deliberately tease: "Only my girlfriend has the right to control me." I bit my lip. The words he was about to say choked in his mouth and were finally swallowed back. Feeling my ears start to burn, I immediately turned away. Behind him, his low laugh rang out: "Cowardly." 14 I said I wanted to call the driver to pick him up. He said he didn't want Hua Tinh Nhiem to know. So... I had to take him to my house. As soon as she opened the door, my mother saw Hua Tan Nien leaning half of her body on my shoulder and froze for a few seconds. Now I lie without blinking: "That friend of mine was beaten by some thugs. His parents are divorced, no one takes care of him..." My mother is the type of person who is crazy about beauty. Immediately picked up Hua Tan Nien, both sad and annoyed: "Oh my god, I'm so sorry. Those kids are really bastards, why do they beat people like this!" She searched the cabinet for the medicine box, threw it to me and stood up. "Today, I'm stewing pork bones. Eat a lot, then drink another bowl of soup - nourish now!" "Let's make some more stir-fried meat, you're growing up, you have to eat healthy!" After speaking, he went into the kitchen. I let Hua Tan Nien sit on the sofa and used iodine to clean his wound. “Shush~” He moaned softly, his voice was deep. “Does it hurt?” I leaned over and blew gently on the area I just wiped. The breath blowing on his cheek made Hua Tan Nien suddenly step back, his fingers tightening on the edge of the chair, his knuckles turning white. “Um.” It must be very painful, his voice is hoarse. But not knowing what to think, he suddenly grabbed my wrist and looked at me intently: "Have you... ever brought anyone else to your house for dinner?" I stopped. Look down at him. The space was silent, only the sound of cooking echoed from the kitchen. “Or… is it just me?” He gulped, as if waiting for confirmation, to see if my favor was reserved for him. After realizing that, my heart felt like someone had hit me hard. The sound of my heart beating loudly in my chest. I withdrew my hand. Turn around and close the medicine box. “…Only you.” "OH." His voice was clearly happy. I suddenly remembered Tham Tru's incident that day. I took out the papers from that day and gave them to Hua Tan Nien: "My deskmate said... you fight very well." scary. Don't scare him next time." Hua Tan Nien looked intently at the paper. Not knowing what he saw, the corner of his lips curled up in a smile. “…Okay. Listen to me.” Having finished speaking, he folded the paper and stuffed it into his backpack. Wait — Why did you "listen to what you said" and then carefully fold it up and put it in your bag?! That piece of paper is a letter begging for mercy?! 15 It was too late after eating. My parents were enthusiastic, and seeing that Hua Tan Nien was obedient and handsome, they kept him sitting and chatting endlessly, saying "come over to play more in the future", "whenever you have free time, auntie and uncle will take you out to eat delicious food"... Waiting until I was about to send him home, I suddenly remembered: Hua Tinh Nhiem said he would come over to my house to sleep tonight, but it's been over 9 o'clock and I still haven't seen him. Clearly something was… wrong. Being blown by the cold night wind, Hua Tan Nien also regained consciousness. He glanced at me, half smiling and half not: "You really are a devoted sister-in-law, aren't you?" I was confused - I didn't know what Hua Tinh Nhiem was doing. Even when Hua Tan Nien and I used the password to enter the house, we didn't hear anything. The living room light is still on. But — from the study room suddenly came a sound. “Ah… it hurts!” “Can't you be a little gentler?!” Hua Tinh Nhiem's voice was vague, carrying a bit of... shyness and coddling. I stood frozen in place, my arms and legs frantic. “Open your mouth.” “Don't bite me.” “If it hurts, try to endure it a little.” It was To Uy Xuyen's voice - cold, decisive. …Oh what the hell?! I leaned over, gently stood on tiptoe and whispered to Hua Tan Nien: "Do... do you want to come in?" His ears turned red unnoticeably, but his face remained cold as ice: "Of course." “Once we've resolved it, we'll deal with you again.” “What do I do… I…” He bowed his head, his eyes sharp, as if he was weighing each word in his heart. In front of the system, I vigorously waved my hands and punched the sky. In front of Hua Tan Nien, I only shrunk my neck and mumbled: "Um..." Hua Tan Nien gritted his teeth, pushed the door with one hand, and tightly covered my eyes with the other hand. The big, warm hand immediately covered my vision, leaving only the warmth of the teenager's body close to me, making my heart pound endlessly. The space was quiet for a few seconds. Finally, Hua Tinh Nhiem's trembling voice rang out: "Brother? Why did you come here?” “Listen to my explanation first!!” I quickly removed Hua Tan Nien's hand, the scene that caught my eye was: To Uy Xuyen was holding a bottle of mouth ulcer medicine spray, one hand holding Hua Tinh Nhiem's chin, his face as calm as water. Facing Hua Tan Nien's murderous eyes, he still didn't change his expression - using his thumb to wipe away the drug residue at the corner of Hua Tinh Nhiem's lips. Your mentality is as strong as the Thai Son mountain! Let me study! I want to learn!! 16 Okay. Lesson: Failure. In the living room. Hua Tinh Nhiem and I were like two elementary school students doing something wrong, obediently sitting on the sofa. As for Hua Tan Nien, he walked back and forth with his hands on his hips, looking extremely angry, unable to hide the fire in his eyes. Hua Tinh Nhiem last time saved To Uy Xuyen and sent his father to prison. He also spent money on hospital bills for his seriously ill grandmother. To Uy Xuyen was moved to tears and promised: "If I have money in the future, I will definitely repay you." I don't know where Hua Tinh Nhiem learned the trick and forced To Uy Xuyen to be his "puppy captain". The reason is... that would be exempt from the "repayment" clause. Of course To Uy Xuyen felt humiliated I've never been humiliated, but Hua Tinh Nhiem snorted coldly: "My patience is limited, I won't force you. But finding a clone like you is easy." To Uy Xuyen gritted his teeth and nodded in resignation. From then on: • Call and come. • You have to take care of everything you eat, drink, and study. • Still have to live together in this 200 square meter apartment. What happened earlier - was because Hua Tinh Nhiem had tooth decay again. To Uy Xuyen is spraying medicine for her. To Uy Xuyen proactively spoke up: "That's the way it is. If you want to hit me, I have nothing to say." "Why should we fight? We didn't do anything! We're being wronged, brother!" Hua Tinh Nhiem shouted. “Shut up!” Hua Tan Nien pointed at her and blushed with anger: "What kind of game are you playing at such a young age?!" Hua Tinh Nhiem pulled her neck back, her mouth pouting: "I'm eighteen years old and three months old, I'm an adult!" Hua Tan Nien frowned, his anger still not gone: "Do you still dare to argue with me?!" He walked towards us — I don't feel good! If two brothers start arguing, the house will explode. I immediately stood up and hugged his waist: "Don't be angry anymore! Tinh Nhiem knows how to be reasonable. Furthermore, To Uy Xuyen is a good student at the top of the grade, can you teach her how to spoil her?!" “Let's not scare her…” The air was as quiet as paper. I clearly felt Hua Tan Nien's body stiffen for a moment. Just as she was about to say more, Hua Tinh Nhiem spoke up again, breaking the atmosphere: "My sister-in-law still speaks for me like that, if you're still angry, you're too much." "At most... this apartment is for both of you to live together! After all, the four of us will be one family from now on~" Me: "???" To Uy Xuyen: “???” Hua Tan Nien: “???”
