Chapter 4 — I've Been Waiting For Him For Fourteen Years

He stopped right in front of my house, looking like a big dog abandoned by his owner. I had no choice but to let him into the house. Looking at Ta Hoai, I felt extremely complicated and sighed softly: "Even if I agree, what about your parents? Will they agree to let you and me be together?" "Why not?" He reflexively asked again, Obviously, in your eyes, I am the most wonderful person, so in the eyes of others, I must also be the most wonderful person. Seeing me silent, Tieu Hoai bowed his head, seemingly thinking seriously. "Then I will become your son-in-law. I will raise you, but not for free, you are very rich, enough for me to support for the rest of my life." I remained silent again. Seeing my face becoming more and more unsightly, he quickly said: "You don't need to worry about my parents, they have known I like you for a long time." He frowned, his expression a bit resentful: "Do you still like Ha Hanh Tri?" I frankly said: "I don't like it anymore." Ta Hoai immediately became excited, changing his face so quickly that I didn't have time to react. "That's right, I'm more handsome than him, richer than him, and also love you more than him." "From a young age, my parents taught me not to be careless with other people's feelings. If you don't like me, you shouldn't like him." When he said the last sentence, he lowered his eyes again, and his aura also weakened. I hesitated for a moment then said: "It's not that I don't like it." He was listing Ha Hanh Tri's shortcomings when he suddenly stopped. "It's just that I just got out of a previous relationship, so rushing to be with you is not fair to you." Because of my words, Tieu Hoai's sharp eyes suddenly filled with joy and confusion: "Nothing is unfair." He stammered: "I think fair is fair." I've never seen him so embarrassed, I couldn't help but laugh softly. His white face was red, looking more fierce when wearing serious clothes. "What I said just now, I'm telling the truth. I won't have time to regret it." "I've never regretted it." Whether it's breaking up with Ha Hanh Tri, or falling in love with Tieu Hoai, I will not because I love the wrong person, or experience a failed love, but stop, not daring to give my heart again, life has no absolutely right answer. Before knowing the results, no one can say what is right or wrong. I just choose the path I want to take at every turn. Even if it's bumpy, Even if it's difficult, Even if you don't see the road ahead clearly. Whether good or bad, It's my choice. I am not too hard on myself in the past, nor am I afraid of the consequences of future choices. Even if I make the wrong choice, I still have enough courage to shoulder everything. In the room, the lights were dim, the smell of alcohol spread everywhere, Ha Hanh Tri rubbed his throbbing temples, unconsciously thinking of Diep Tuong Vi. In the past, whenever he drank too much, she always advised him to stop drinking, but it didn't work, he never listened to her. Diep Tuong Vi didn't get angry because of that. She also cooked hangover soup at home and gently coaxed him to drink it little by little. At that moment, his eyes were filled with love. Her every smile, gesture, or word is full of gentleness. But the day they broke up, that image suddenly appeared in Ha Hanh Tri's mind, there was no longer love in her eyes, there was no longer a smile on her face. She was no longer gentle, but became cold as ice. He didn't like her like that, nor should she treat him like that. Ha Hanh Tri could barely control the restlessness in his heart. He heard the person next to him take a breath. "Diep Tuong Vi..." His voice suddenly stopped. Ha Hanh Tri opened his eyes wide and coldly said: "Go on, how is she?" That person smiled wryly and stammered: "She... is probably just angry with you, Ha brother, she

How's it going?" The other person never dared to speak. Tham Hao couldn't stand it anymore and said: "She's in love." Light flashed from the phone screen, and a post on social networks caught Ha Hanh Tri's eyes. It's a photo. In the photo are two hands clasped together, one hand clearly belongs to a man. Ha Hanh Tri's whole body stiffened. Since the day Diep Tuong Vi proposed to break up, he had never proactively contacted her, so when he took out his phone to look at that post, he discovered that he had been blocked. Ha Hanh Tri swore, then called her, but discovered that his number had also been blocked. The previously bustling room suddenly became terrifyingly quiet. Ha Hanh Tri's face became more and more unsightly, his friends realized something, no one dared to say another word. Ha Hanh Tri laughed coldly: "Dare to use another man to provoke me, is she crazy?" A friend quickly laughed and said: "Ha brother, don't be angry. Sister-in-law is just..." "What sister-in-law?" Ha Hanh Tri kicked hard, the table crashed loudly, bottles on the table shattered: "From now on, don't call her sister-in-law anymore, just pretend she died outside!" Ha Hanh Tri's face turned black, her voice almost gritted her teeth: "Very good. Dare to say goodbye, then leave, and then dare to love someone else, what a strong pair of wings!" Tieu Hoai and I stayed in the coastal city for a while, then returned to Beijing. The company still needs me to manage, I can't let myself take a break for too long. Furthermore, Tieu Hoai's grandfather is about to celebrate his birthday, he will turn 70 years old, so he takes this event very seriously. On his birthday, I met quite a few famous people who often appear. on television. I was mentally prepared, but when we met, I realized that I was worried too much. Tieu Hoai's grandfather smiled gently, different from the serious look on the news. And Tieu Hoai's parents, like he said, had known for a long time that he liked me. When he saw us standing next to each other, his mother had tears in her eyes, holding my hand tightly: "Tieu Hoai has been difficult since he was a child, but he has never been strict. Don't do random things now. If it makes you angry, just come find me.” There was no scrutiny or dissatisfaction like I thought, on the contrary, they seemed afraid that I would be unhappy and abandon Tieu Hoai. After meeting his parents, I breathed a sigh of relief.
