Chapter 14 — Let go at the right time, life will bloom

Chu Nghien Bach brought me a potted plant. It's a Singapore almond tree.

"Congratulations on the housewarming."

I smiled.

"Thank you, senior."

He placed the potted plant on the balcony. Lightly brush your hands. Then turned his head to look at me.

"I've become thinner lately."

"Still remember to eat and drink."

"Why do you sound exactly like Manh Tuyet?"

Chu Nghien Bach did not laugh. He looked at me for a long time.

"Have you ever thought..."

"After completing this busy period."

"Will you give yourself a little rest?"

I shook my head.

"What's the point of taking a break?"

"I'm just getting started."

Chu Nghien Bach pursed his lips slightly.

"What do you mean..."

He stopped. Just smiled slightly.

"Let's talk another day."

He turned around and left. I stood on the balcony. Quietly looked at his car. Slowly leave the creative park. The Singapore almond pot sways gently in the night breeze. The green leaves fluttered very gently. I remember what Manh Tuyet said the other day.

"Your senior..."

"Don't like you?"

I don't think anymore. Just quietly place the potted plant next to the desk. Remember to water every day. Another month has passed. Ha Canh Tham's installment payment. Overdue twice in a row. Chu Nghien Bach officially requested the enforcement agency to enforce the sentence. Court summons. Delivered directly to Ha Canh Tham. He changed another phone number. Keep calling me. I'm still on the phone.

"Niem So..."

"Can you hold back a little?"

"Now you're unemployed."

"After being laid off by the company."

"I've been looking for a while but still can't find a job."

"15,000 yuan per month."

"I really can't pay."

I calmly replied.

"Ha Canh Tham."

"The money you and Dinh Vy spent in Tam A."

"It's enough to pay for a few months."

"Want money."

"Just go find her."

His voice stopped.

"...You and Dinh Vy."

"We broke up."

I curled my lips.

"Congratulations."

"It has nothing to do with me."

"Court notice."

"You just follow the rules."

He was almost begging.

"Can't you give me a little more time?"

"We were also husband and wife for four years."

"You really..."

"Isn't there any love left?"

I smiled softly.

"Four years of marriage?"

"When you called me 'old buffalo' in front of Dinh Vy."

"Have you ever thought about gratitude?"

The other end of the line. There was only the sound of heavy breathing. A moment later. He spoke hoarsely.

"Finally..."

"What do you want before you let me go?"

I looked at the sunset outside the window. Respond slowly.

"1,934,700 yuan."

"Not a penny missing."

"Not one day to spare."

I hung up. Manh Tuyet poked her head out from the desk next to her.

"Did he call again to complain?"

"It's truly beyond cure."

I smiled faintly.

"I'm used to it."

I turned on the computer. Continue to edit the design plan. Outside the window. The sun gradually sets. The light in the office also slowly dimmed. Only the computer screen remains. Quietly glowing. Suddenly. I remember something. A year ago. Also at this hour. I'm off work. Drive back home. The difference is. In that house. There is a man on the outside who always says he loves me. And now. The new apartment is just me. But... How strange. Be alone. Much more comfortable than living with two people. After 150,000 yuan of Dinh Vy's compensation money was transferred. She completely disappeared from my life. Manh Tuyet said. Dinh Vy has returned countryside. Working as an administrative officer for a small company. In the design world. No one mentions that name anymore. As for Ha Canh Tham's installment payment. After the court officially intervened. Also started to be delivered every month. Any time. He also waited until the last day to move. Money will come. I don't want to waste another second. To think about him. Just in time for So Bach Design's first anniversary of establishment. I made a decision. This is one of the industry's most prestigious awards. There were more than a thousand projects submitted for the competition. But in the end. Only ten winning works were selected. The project I brought to the competition. It is the boutique hotel of Gia Du Group. Manh Tuyet finished listening. Think I'm crazy.

"Do you know how incredibly competitive this tournament is?"

"Top design companies."

"Each place has hundreds of personnel."

"Every year I rush into the competition."

"Studio with twenty people like me."

"Based on what?"

I calmly answered.

"Based on the work."

"Manh Tuyet."

"When you followed me out to be independent."

"What did you say?"

She was stunned.

"I said..."

"If there is a shortage of operators."

"Then leave it to me."

I laughed.

"Not that sentence."

"It's another sentence."
