“But how can outsiders know about our old debts?” Tong Tuyet said, "They only look at the outside."

She stood up.

"Sister, I have to go up. The nurse just finished telling me the post-operative notes, I also have to ask for a follow-up appointment today."

Tong Man also stood up.

"Do you need me to come up and curse you a few words for you? I've been annoying that mother-in-law for a long time."

Tong Tuyet smiled.

“After cursing people, you go back to your hometown, leaving me to face her every day?”

Tong Man thought and rubbed his nose shyly.

“That's it then.”

Suddenly, she took out a small paper package from her pocket and stuffed it into Tong Tuyet's hand.

“What is this?”

“Just put it away.” Tong Man lowered his voice, "A copy of your ID card, a copy of your bank card, and the red book of your pre-wedding house."

Tong Tuyet was stunned.

“How did you get it?”

“When I bought that small house, you went through the procedures with me.” Tong Man said, "I'll keep a copy. As for the bank card, I forgot it the last time I went back to my hometown. I'll go back and help you make a copy of it."

Luc's mother was stunned, it took her half a day to come up with a sentence.

"Mom is a miserable person, what is your father's personality, you are no stranger."

Luc Kien Quan closed his eyes.

"It's because I know that I understand more clearly that Tong Tuyet following me won't be able to ask for any help or benefit."

Luc's mother's face darkened and she was about to say something, but in the end she just sighed.

"It's okay, just recuperate well. Don't think nonsense."

She stood up, went to the window and pulled the curtains, the night hung heavily on the glass pane, a gray-blue color.

"Tieu Quan, Tong Tuyet's personality is stubborn, but his heart is not bad." She turned her back to him and said, "If you really want to continue living, you have to show some sincerity. Women don't just have to rely on their mouth to coax them out."

Having finished speaking, she picked up her bag and quietly left the hospital room. The sound of the door closing was very soft, but when it reached Luc Kien Quan's ears, it was like a rock falling to the ground. The hospital room became quiet again, only the sound of drip drips could be heard. Drop by drop, drop by drop, like recording a debt book. Bringing everything he owed for all these years, beating every beat into his heart. Luc Kien Quan glared at the ceiling, seeing a dazzling white color above. He suddenly remembered the day in Sanya, lying in the sun on the bench, the waiter brought a glass of chilled fruit juice, he lazily accepted it, the phone rang. It was Luc Tu Ngang calling. At that time, he was negotiating detailed cooperation with customers, with numbers and profits in mind. The son's voice trembled on the other end of the line, telling his mother that he was about to have surgery and saying that he hoped he could return. He glanced at the sparkling blue sea, then glanced at the smiling customer offering him wine, quickly calculating a math problem in his mind. If this trip is not finalized, the previous months of hard work will be a waste. As for Tong Tuyet, the doctor also said it was in the early stages, just cut it off, no big problem. A thought even flashed through his mind. Every human being is not sick or sick. Hanging up the phone, he took a sip of cold-pressed water, feeling very refreshed. The sun is very beautiful, the sea breeze is also great. He felt he had made a rational choice. Now lying on the hospital bed, he only felt cold in his chest. The moment of infarction His heart attack came, he thought he was about to die. His chest felt like it was being twisted by a hand, his face darkened, and his ears were filled with screams of panic. He heard himself whispering in his heart. My life is over. He didn't even have time to say sorry to anyone. It was at that moment that he truly understood, in the past, when Tong Tuyet was lying on the operating table, how scared she was in her heart. And where were you at that time? Sunbathing on the beach. Thinking of this, the bridge of his nose stung.
