Chapter 3 — In the Sea of People, I Only Remember You

Ta Canh Hanh was so angry that he rubbed his forehead: "Ly Tang Tang, are your eyes for decoration?" I felt angry: "I also want to recognize it. But in my eyes, everyone is like blurry squares."

“What about me?”

He suddenly came closer, his handsome face magnified right before my eyes.

“Am I also like a fuzzy square?”

The distance was so close, I could even see my image in his eyes.

“No… not the same.”

“What's different?”

“You're... handsome.”

I answered honestly. Ta Canh Hanh paused, his ears suddenly turned red. He turned away and snorted: "Looks like you're still reasonable." Just as we were having a "lovely argument", Lo Vu suddenly walked over. In hand holding a bottle of milk.

“Tang Tang, this is your favorite strawberry.”

Just as I was about to take it, Ta Canh Hanh raised his hand and stopped me.

“She is abstaining from sweets.”

Lo Vu's face darkened: "Ta Canh Hanh, I'm talking to Tang Tang."

“I'm also talking to my caregiver.” Ta Canh Hanh did not yield at all.

The air between the two of them was as tense as a guitar string. I stood in the middle, extremely awkward. At this time, Lo Vu suddenly sighed and looked at me with hurt eyes.

“Tang Tang, do you still blame me for not stopping you that day?”

I froze.

"I actually just arrived that day. It was already late when I saw him. If I had known... I would have preferred to eat instead of him."

He said it truthfully, his eyes still red. I suddenly became shaken. That's right, since he was a child, Lo Vu couldn't bear to step on an ant to death. How could he harm someone? I guess I've been thinking too much.

“No, I don't blame you.” I'm soft-hearted.

Lo Vu smiled and reached out to pat my head.

“Pop!”

Ta Canh Hanh shook his hand away.

“Speak as you say, don't move your hands or feet.”

“Ta Canh Hanh!” Lo Vu finally got angry.

After the evening self-study period. Because I was on duty, I came home late. When passing by the stairs leading to the rooftop, I somehow stopped. I'm still worried about that day. I followed the stairs up, intending to review the "crime scene". The wind on the terrace is very strong. I stood in the same place that day feeding Ta Canh Hanh. This corner is a dead corner, if you don't get close you won't be able to see anything. But... I suddenly discovered that right opposite this corner was a giant reflective glass panel - the glass wall outside the experimental building. From the stairs, through that glass, you can clearly see every action in this corner. That day was sunny and the reflection was definitely clearer. An image flashed through my mind — Before I rushed to the rooftop that day, I actually saw a shadow pass by the stairs. I think I'm dizzy. Now that I think about it, if Lo Vu had really been standing on the stairs at that time... Not only would he have heard my voice, but he could also have clearly seen everything I was doing through that glass. But he didn't speak. Until... Ta Canh Hanh finished eating the last bite, then fell down. He just stormed out. Why? I remember Lo Vu's eyes that day. It was not at all a matter of luck. It's... the excitement of a successful plot. I always thought I was just face blind. It turns out... I'm not only blind, but also stupid.

I leaned on the terrace railing. If that's true... then everything makes sense. Lo Vu knew I was face blind. He intentionally said he would wait for me in the yard superior, but I hide in the dark. He correctly calculated that I couldn't tell the difference between others. It's also true of Ta Canh Hanh's personality - arrogant, not bothering to explain. But what he didn't count on was: Ta Canh Hanh would actually eat it all. Or... he bet that Ta Canh Hanh would refuse, then I would get angry and do something more outrageous, thereby completely offending the Ta family? Regardless of his ability, his thinking... is cruel to the extreme.

“Have you seen enough?”

A cold voice rang out from the darkness. I was so scared that I almost jumped off the building. Ta Canh Hanh stood leaning against the back of the water tank, holding a cigarette in his hand and just smoking it, his uniform collar slightly open. How long has he been standing there?

“You… why are you here?” My voice trembled.

Ta Canh Hanh stepped forward, put out his cigarette on the ground, and stepped on it with his foot.

“If I wasn't here, how would I know if a stupid rabbit like you would ever understand?”

He's known for a long time?

“You... you know Lo Vu did that on purpose?”

Ta Canh Hanh chuckled softly: "I'm not stupid."

“So why…”

Why still eat? Why do you still cooperate with him to perform this entire play?
