Chapter 7
Chapter 7 — In rebirth, I gave the opportunity to save him to Bach Nguyet Quang
And A Tien is in charge of inventorying food and medicinal materials. At the same time, examine the elderly, sick and injured. They stood in the middle of a stream of refugees. Everyone is busy with their work. I withdrew my gaze. Started distributing rough cotton shirts, hot porridge and dry food with the soldiers. Qi Huujun always followed behind me from beginning to end. Perhaps you can see with your own eyes the scene of destruction everywhere. My heart couldn't bear it anymore. He has completely changed his previous pampered appearance. Come with me to comfort the wounded and sick. The two of us, one before, one after. Follow the riverbank to look for people in distress. Right at that moment. I suddenly heard someone shouting:
“A child fell into the water!”
I immediately looked in the direction of the cry. I only saw a child desperately struggling in the middle of the rushing water. No time to think more. I rushed straight into the water. Swim towards the child. As soon as I hold the baby in my arms. Haven't had time to swim to shore yet. The ground under my feet suddenly shook violently. A loud explosion suddenly rang out. Rolling rocks and mud. Mixed with broken tree trunks. Along the mountainside rushing down. The stream of mud blocked our retreat. I hold the baby tightly in my arms. My limbs were so cold that they were numb. Right at the most desperate moment. I heard someone calling my name. Qi Huu Quan ignored the rocks hitting his body. Daring to swim towards us. He shielded himself from people and the baby. Use all your strength to push aside the rushing stream of mud and water. Just as we were about to reach shore. A huge block of sand and mud crashed down again. In the next moment. Qi Huu Quan used his strength to hug me and the baby tightly in his arms. Use your back to block all impact. Mud and rubble fiercely pounded down on him. He used all his last strength. Push me and the baby towards safety.
“I also saved her once.”
“Forgive me.”
Qi Huujun's voice was completely drowned out by the rumbling sound of rocks and floodwaters. Don't know how much time has passed. The raging waters finally gradually subsided. When Qi Huujun was found. His entire body was covered with yellow mud. The clothes on his body were torn and tattered. His face was handsome but pale. At this moment, there was no more blood left. He's dead. Qi Lam Chuong ordered someone to bring Qi Huu Quan's body back to the capital. And I stay. Continue to deal with the flood with him. The day the floodwaters were completely controlled. Me and Te Lam Chuong stood on a high mound looking into the distance. His eyes from beginning to end. They all quietly followed A Tien's figure. I thought for a moment. Finally, he opened his mouth and asked:
“Have you fallen in love with that lady?”
Qi Lam Chuong did not expect me to ask so directly. He was momentarily stunned. A moment later, he spoke up:
“That's right.”
“But she can rest assured.”
“I will absolutely not betray you.”
I burst out laughing. The laughter was very soft.
“But what if the person who helps you is me?”
Obviously Qi Lam Chuong was frightened by that statement. For a moment, I didn't know how to respond. I look at him. Slowly continue:
“On the day of the selection, you stood up to rescue me because you wanted to repay the favor.”
“It's not…”
Te Lam Chuong instinctively wanted to explain. But I interrupted him.
“No need to deceive yourself anymore.”
“You have no feelings towards me between a man and a woman.”
“On the contrary, it is Miss A Tien.”
“She is a very good lady.”
“I can see it.”
“You really like her.”
“You guys are a perfect match.”
Qi Lam Chuong stood still in place. Still speechless for a long time. I won't turn back again. Just turned around and left. This time. I understood very clearly what I really wanted. Small and narrow space in the forbidden palace. It has long since ceased to be the life we desire. After returning to the capital. Qi Lam Chuong personally begged His Majesty. Please cancel our engagement. I once again regained my freedom. Then buy a building in the capital. Started opening the nu thu. I heard it was because of Thoi Linh Am's matter. Parents were also heavily implicated. From then on. The matter of promotion was completely unrelated to him.
