Chapter 7 — Giang Dao

10Co Hoai Sam came to visit me at the hospital, probably because An Noan told him. As soon as he met me, he frankly said that he was willing to accept the child in my womb, as long as I agreed to come back to him. But I refused immediately, without thinking. "Dao Dao, can you really forgive me?" Co Hoai Sam stood next to the hospital bed, full of pain. "Co Hoai Sam, I told you, in this whole life, the thing I hate most is being betrayed and abandoned. When you secretly went back and forth with Gian Lam, you should think about today's outcome." "Dao Dao, over the years, every moment you regret, you really regret it..." I shook my head: "Go home, Co Hoai Sam, we really can't go back okay.” Co Hoai Sam slowly raised his hand to cover his face. He understands my personality. I can't stand betrayal, otherwise I wouldn't have decided to divorce Tu Tinh Chau. Not long after Co Hoai Sam left, the hospital room door opened again. I didn't open my eyes, tiredly speaking: "Co Hoai Sam, how many times do you want to say it again, I won't go back to you..." But no one answered me, only the sound of the hospital room door closing. I suddenly opened my eyes and looked towards the door. Tu Tinh Chau is approaching, he is still wearing a black suit, shirt, tie, belt, all chosen by me. He was still wearing glasses, probably just came from the company, his face was still a little tired. He looks thinner, there are light dark circles under his eyes. I turned away, I knew he was probably staying up late again, not living a regular life anymore. "An Noan said you weren't feeling well so you had to go to the hospital." He came to my bed and sat down, very naturally holding my hand. I was receiving fluids, my hand was pricked by a needle and it was cold. He squeezed my hand, his eyebrows slightly furrowed: "Why is your hand so cold?" I closed my eyes, trying to pull my hand back, but he gently held my hand in his palm. "Dao Dao." He called my name, my nose immediately stung, even though I closed my eyes tightly, the tears still couldn't be held back, wanting to flow out. "The company is very busy these days, you know." I didn't say anything, he continued: "But I can't concentrate on work. Dao Dao, I haven't come to see you in the past few days because I always think, why?" I suddenly asked for a divorce.” I still didn't want to talk, but tears kept flowing. "At first, I thought it was because of Co Hoai Sam, that you were determined to divorce. At that time I was angry, so I confusedly agreed." In his voice, there was even a hint of regret, I couldn't help it, I opened my eyes and looked at him: "Tu Tinh Chau..." "I know, Dao Dao, it's my fault, it's because I don't understand everything clearly." He held my hand, his eyes full of pain. I shook my head strongly, he didn't understand, he would never understand why I insisted on a divorce. I'm that kind of person, I can't stand unclear things in my heart, I'd rather be in pain alone than have to compromise with such things. "Two years after getting married, I was busy with work, didn't take care of you, didn't pay attention to many things." I continued to shake my head, not because of work. I'm not an ignorant child, I know how important a career is to a man. "I took Tinh Huyen abroad to study. Every month her account only has $500, the rest she has to work extra to make a living." I was surprised. Tu Tinh Chau only has one younger sister, his cousin's relationship is very deep, he always pampers her. 500 dollars may be enough for a normal student to live, but for someone who lives in luxury like Tu Tinh Huyen, that amount is not enough to buy a dress. "If it wasn't because you wanted a divorce, maybe I would still be blindsided by her." Tu's expression

Tinh Chau was very serious, but the eyes looking at me were full of remorse and mercy. Actually, I never blamed him for these things, because Tu Tinh Huyen always knew how to act. As long as Tu Tinh Chau is at home, she always seems to love me like a close sister-in-law. As for me, because I didn't want him to be distracted by trivial family matters, I never told him about her two sides. Anyway, those childish actions don't cost me anything, I can endure them. But my insistence on divorce was like bursting a festering boil, causing Tu Tinh Huyen to reveal her true face in front of her brother. "When he knows how to be reasonable and respects you as his sister-in-law, then let's talk again." "You don't need to do that, he just doesn't like me as his sister-in-law, it's not a big sin." "If he doesn't like it, he has to like it, if he doesn't accept it, he has to accept it. My wife, only you." "Tu." Tinh Chau... But what about Lam Bach Lo, haven't you always liked her?" "Who told you that I like her?" He frowned and couldn't help but raised his hand and lightly flicked my forehead: "Where did you hear all this nonsense?" "But... doesn't my computer have photos of the two of us saved? I also helped her in the divorce case. Last year, on your birthday, you said you were on a business trip, but you stayed with her for afternoon tea I didn't even receive a birthday greeting from you..." Having said this, my voice choked. I've always been an annoying and proud person, my stupid pride doesn't allow me to frankly ask about such things. "Photo taken together?" "Yes, it's the photo in my folder. She smiled at me so sweetly..." "Are you talking about this photo?" He took out his phone and opened a photo to show me, it was the photo he saved on the computer. I nodded strongly: "Yes, it's this one." Tu Tinh Chau suddenly laughed. He rarely smiles. He is an old-fashioned, serious and cold person. During the two years I married him, the number of times he smiled could be counted on the fingers of one hand. I suddenly looked at him in bewilderment. Tu Tinh Chau took off his glasses, shook his head and smiled, then he gently stroked my hair: "So stupid." His words "so stupid" were filled with affection, making my whole body feel like I was falling into a dream. "Look closely at this photo, who is in the back, in the upper left corner?" Hearing that, I quickly wiped my tears, opened my eyes and looked closely. I looked at the top left corner and realized there was a couple in the photo. The girl has dyed black and blue hair, wears a crop top and a pleated skirt, looking very stylish. Next to her was a tall, handsome, and stylishly dressed guy. They looked like a perfect match. But what surprised me the most was... "This is... me?" I was stunned, why did I appear in this photo? Wait, the person next to me seems to be Co Hoai Sam. This was probably when I was in college and dating Co Hoai Sam. I was confused and surprised and asked: "Tu Tinh Chau... what is this?" "At that time, I went back to school to do some work. When I passed by the stadium, I saw you and was about to come and say hello, but your boyfriend appeared." His voice was calm, but for some reason I heard a bit of jealousy. "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't even know you at that time. We only knew each other on a blind date, don't make up stories..." Tu Tinh Chau suddenly stared at me. stared: "Giang Dao, I forgot my promise first. I forgot you first." I was completely stunned. But it seemed that Tu Tinh Chau was a bit upset, he became cold as usual: "If you don't remember, then just rest." "Tu Tinh Chau..." I unconsciously grabbed his sleeve, wanting to act like a babe. But then I suddenly remembered, me and

You're divorced... I quickly let go. Tu Tinh Chau glanced at the watch on his wrist and said: "I have to go back to the company for a meeting. This meeting is very important. You stay at the hospital to rest. I will come back in the afternoon to pick you up and leave the hospital, then we will go see the doctor." Seeing him stand up to leave, I couldn't help but ask: "Tu Tinh Chau, Lam Bach Lo... are you really pregnant?" He looked at me: "That's right." My heart sank, sitting on the hospital bed, in a baggy blue and white striped suit, my small body became even thinner. Tu Tinh Chau's eyes softened, he walked over, gently caressed my face: "Don't think too much, rest." "Her child..." I was about to ask: "Is it yours?" But the words were choked, unable to be uttered. "That day, take her to the hospital in time, the baby is okay, don't think too much. Whatever happens, it has nothing to do with you." Do you think I'm worried about the baby in Lam Bach Lo's belly? I was so angry that I didn't want to talk anymore, so I pushed him away: "Hurry up and go to the meeting, leave." Maybe he was really in a hurry, so he didn't say anything more, just told me to rest and quickly left. I was in a confused mood, not at peace at the hospital. Moreover, this afternoon he planned to come back to take me to the doctor. But I don't want you to know that I'm pregnant. So I changed my clothes, quietly left the hospital, and returned home. Maybe because I'm pregnant, I sleep a lot. After taking a shower, I lay down and immediately fell asleep. When I woke up, I vaguely heard a small noise outside. I quickly got out of bed and opened the bedroom door. "Are you awake?" Tu Tinh Chau was standing next to the dining table, looking at me. He was still wearing his familiar black shirt and pants, tall and slim, with a slim belt. "You're not wearing sandals." He walked over, looked at my bare feet on the floor, frowned slightly, then turned to get me sandals. When he bent down to put the sandals on my feet, I gently called his name: "Tu Tinh Chau..."
