Chapter 6 — I Used To Love You To Exhaustion

She said that with all her heart. Why did Co Thanh Nguyet react so strongly?

“Sooner or later Canh Xuyen will divorce you.” Co Thanh Nguyet saw that she looked bewildered and gritted her teeth even more, "Today I will show you who is more important in his heart!"

Kieu Van Ngoc's heart jumped! The strong smell of smoke wafted in through the crack of the door, followed immediately by overwhelming heat. Outside the door came screams: "It's on fire! It's on fire!" Co Thanh Nguyet actually started a fire! Very quickly, the hospital room door was slammed open. Hoo Canh Xuyen, with a burning look on his face, picked up Kieu Van Ngoc: "It's on fire, I'll take you out..."

"Canh Xuyen..." Co Thanh Nguyet did not know when she fell to the ground, her face pale, her expression painful, "My leg seems to be twisted..."

Hoo Canh Xuyen's movements stopped, his expression was blank for a second.

"It's okay, take your wife out first." Co Thanh Nguyet said awkwardly, "If you can't get out in time, tell Than Than that you're going abroad, don't let him know..."

“What nonsense are you talking about!”

Hoo Canh Xuyen combined three steps into two and rushed in front of Co Thanh Nguyet, hugged her and ran out.

"Van Ngoc, wait for me, I will come back to save you right away!"

Chapter 5 Kieu Van Ngoc unconsciously stretched out her hand, the movement pulled the wound causing sharp pain that immediately made her mind alert. What are you doing? Still waiting for Huo Canh Xuyen to choose her? No, you can't rely on him. Kieu Van Ngoc gritted her teeth, suppressed the intense pain, and tried to roll off the bed. When the body hit the floor, the wounds opened up again! Kieu Van Ngoc was in so much pain that she felt dizzy, but the toxic smoke was already pouring in, so she didn't dare to stop. She could only use both hands to grab the floor and crawl towards the window. There was a long trail of blood left on the tile floor. Downstairs, Hoac Canh Xuyen finally brought Co Thanh Nguyet to safety. He turned around and was about to run upstairs but was held tightly by a firefighter: "The fire is big, it's very dangerous inside!" Blue veins appeared on Huo Canh Xuyen's forehead. He was more irritable than ever: "But my wife is still in there! I have to go in and save her!"

“Calm down... There's someone at the window!”

Hoo Canh Xuyen froze, raised his head and looked up. A person wrapped in bandages was struggling to get his head out. The bleeding wound on his body looked extremely pitiful. It's Kieu Van Ngoc! She didn't bother to glance in this direction, without hesitation she turned around and jumped out the window, her fragile body was like a broken butterfly wing, falling into the lake on the first floor. When Kieu Van Ngoc opened her eyes again, what caught her eye was the familiar white ceiling. She turned her head and discovered Hoo Canh Xuyen sitting right next to her, staring at her. His eyes were full of blood, his expression was tired, clearly he hadn't had a proper rest in a long time.

“Didn't I tell you to wait for me? Why did you jump down?” Seeing Kieu Van Ngoc wake up, his face darkened, his voice was hoarse: "Do you know you almost lost your life?!"

Kieu Van Ngoc lowered her eyes, stared at the white blanket, and said nonchalantly: "I don't believe you."

“…What did you say?”

"You said you didn't trust me. You didn't believe I would come back to save you. I didn't want to die, so I had to save myself."

Hoo Canh Xuyen looked at her blankly, discovering that there was no longer a trace of tender affection in her eyes. It wasn't like that before. When Hoac Than bullied her and put cockroaches in her glass of water, she would cry and rush into his arms. When the elder of the Huo family frowned at her, saying she was a hen that had not laid eggs, she would throw him a look for help. As long as Hoc Canh Xuyen says "Don't be afraid, I will help you", Kieu Van Ngoc's eyes will shine brightly, filled with dependence.
