Chapter 2 — Fate Dissolves In The Rain
"Van Nghien, I love you. But does love have to use these things to prove it?" "Why can't you sympathize with me a little?" 4 I didn't say anything, nor did I give in. He thought I was still angry, so he smiled coldly and nodded: "Okay, then break up." Then he turned and left very decisively. I don't stop it either. I completed the final procedures and then booked a plane ticket for the evening. When I walked out, I met Huong Vien. The person who has been my best friend since high school. She bit her lip, wanting to say it again: "I heard you're flying to Milan tonight." I nodded: "There's a competition there." "When are you coming back?" "There's also an advanced course in October. It will probably take four years to finish." Huong Vien was silent, the whole person clearly breathing a sigh of relief. She looked at me again: "Me and Thoi Trach really don't..." I interrupted her: "It's not important anymore." "If you like, go ahead and fight, anyway I don't need him anymore." Huong Vien's eyes turned red, she gritted her teeth and said: "How can you be so decisive? Don't you feel sad for him at all?!" "You two have had feelings for so many years, don't you even have this little trust? In vain did he even order a meal? At the hotel that night, he said he wanted to surprise you." "Pho Van Nghien, you're not worthy of him!" I've secretly loved Luc Thoi Trach for so many years, and Huong Vien felt dissatisfied on my behalf more than once. "What's good about a man who I don't see a few times a year? Is it better than liking someone else?" But a friend like that, after knowing him for less than two months, was hysterically criticizing me. Say I don't deserve you. Luc Thoi Trach's heart moved towards her more than once. In the end, I understand very clearly whether the two of them are pure or not, whether they have crossed the line or not. I smiled, without explanation. Turn around and leave. Before leaving, I went to the hotel that Huong Vien had just mentioned for the last time. I want to return the ring to you. Standing in front of the private room's door, I was just about to knock when I heard a voice inside. "Mr. Luc, the last time you needed the surveillance camera on the beach you will probably get it tonight. At that time, you can bring the video to thank Huong Vien, it will be more formal." "Unfortunately, I have already identified my sister-in-law. Otherwise, a girl despite the danger of jumping into the sea to save people, who wouldn't be moved!" "Mr. Luc is really spoiling his sister-in-law. People just made a little fuss, I immediately applied for it." "But it's true. With such a hot sister-in-law, I just looked at the photo once and still can't forget it." "That's enough, my mouth doesn't know how to keep anything. Mr. Luc will turn around in a moment." Luc Thoi Trach's voice was lazy: "Go ahead and bother everyone. A few words won't cost you anything." With one word from Huong Vien, he coldly told him not to cause trouble. My friends made fun of me, but he said a few words without losing any meat. I laughed coldly. The heart that had been heavy for the past few days had finally completely cooled down at this moment. I didn't go in but threw the ring into the glass of wine at the door. A "clang" sound rang out, very crispy. Air bubbles surround the diamond, the light sparkles blindingly. I pulled my luggage and turned to leave, without hesitation. When I got off the plane it was early morning the next day. As soon as the phone was turned on, it was immediately filled with countless messages and missed calls. They all came from Luc Thoi Trach. 5 At five o'clock in the morning at Malpensa airport in Milan, my phone rang again. Still Luc Thoi Trach. He was awake all night.
As soon as I answered the phone, there was a roaring wind on the other end. Luc Thoi Trach's voice was hoarse. "The person who jumped into the sea to save you that day was you, not Huong Vien." I still thought what he wanted to say. I said "yeah". He gritted his teeth and said: "...Why didn't you tell me?!" "I didn't ask, nor did I ever want to ask." I calmly pushed my luggage forward: "I had two months to verify, but I never verified once." "I heard the lifeguard mention Huong Vien's name, then happened to meet her at the school where I trained new students, realizing that the silk scarf did not belong to her." "Luc Thoi Trach, at that time I definitely felt very proud. It's very romantic, isn't it? I feel like our fate is determined by heaven. We can still meet each other in such a big world." "But I never doubted why a stranger was willing to sacrifice his life and jump into the sea to save a navy soldier." My voice was as light as the wind:
