Chapter 5 — Love Of The Number System 001

He nodded seriously: "Really. Watching you play golf today, it's completely different." Seemingly afraid that I wouldn't believe him, he added: "I didn't know you were so good at making projects." In fact, he was only used to me being a nanny, but never considered me a capable person. I tilted my head, pretending to be surprised: "So that means... from the beginning, you don't understand anything about me? You let me be the third child, just because I'm... pretty?" What I said is a bit sarcastic, but it's also true - Who becomes a child without being "young - beautiful - easy to seduce"? Giang Hac was confused and stammered: "It's not... Tan Ninh, it's because... I really like you." I looked at him, smiled and continued: "Director Giang, I... don't remember ever loving you." My voice was as firm as taking an oath under the national flag: "My personality does not allow me to be a third person. From here... we end." I turned around and left, not giving him any chance to react. But as soon as I took a step, my hand was pulled back by him: "Tan Ninh, if I wasn't with you... I would die." I pulled my hand away and laughed coldly: "Director Giang, don't joke. What's the difference between death and life? You will live a long life - disasters often live long." "Besides, I already have a boyfriend - Nham Vu, the person you met. I hope you won't bother us anymore." Before leaving the city, I left contact with Nham Vu. He was interested in me, and I said it frankly — I just wanted to take advantage of him a little. — Leaving the building, my mood was a bit mixed. I asked for leave, saying I wasn't feeling well. Then I squatted on the sidewalk, looking at a bewildered yellow dog in front of me. “Fat guy, can you turn into him?” 【Go away, what are you going to do?】 “I want a hug.” Three years without a lover, still without a lover, even to the point of having to... hug a dog. Right after that, that yellow dog crept closer, leaning its whole body against me. “It's still best for you.” If I wasn't afraid it was a stray dog, I would have wanted to hug it even longer. “I really thank you, for the past three years, at least… you have always been by my side.” I kept babbling, and he - always like a good audience, quietly listened. — Suddenly a child's voice rang in my ear: "Mom! I caught the dog thief!" I raised my head and was startled to see a kid standing in front of me: "Auntie, why did you steal my dog?" I stopped and quickly explained: "Sorry, I thought this was a stray dog..." "You are a dog thief!" The baby cried so much that his parents couldn't even run to comfort him. I quickly put the dog down and gave it back. I just saw the yellow dog walk up to the boy, lift its hind leg and pee straight on him. I was stunned. This "playing trick" of Fatty... is too scary. The boy burst into tears even louder. I frantically apologized and comforted her with her parents. At that moment, Giang Hac's voice rang out from behind: "Tan Ninh... Hua Khiet and I have canceled our marriage." 10 Giang Hac acted very quickly. Before, when he was engaged, he made a lot of noise everywhere. Now the marriage is canceled, making the whole world know. He stood in front of the camera, constantly admitting mistakes. Wrong for mistaking childhood regret for love. It's just a lack of water to say it bluntly - the person you truly love is me. I looked at his calm, clear-speaking face on the screen and suddenly felt stinging in the corners of my eyes. “Fat baby,” I whispered, “I finally know why I'm sad.” "It's not because I pursued someone for three years and still got nothing. It's sad because... I chased someone like that for three years." “Even though I know… it was all because he wanted to live.” — I was "invited" back by Giang Hac's people on my way home from work. He pointed to the familiar room: "Tan Ninh, my brother's room has always been the same, every day someone comes to clean it." “Director Giang, I don't understand what you mean.” I pulled out my phone and showed Nham Vu's photo: "I told you, I have a boyfriend now." I even intentionally asked Nham Vu to send some "eye-catching" photos as a talisman - and sure enough, Giang Hac got angry. He pulled me onto the bed: "Tan Ninh! You can only love me, how can you love someone else!" He's gone crazy. At this moment, the physical difference between men and women becomes apparent. When my shirt was stripped off, I raised my foot and kicked him hard in the lower body. “Can we talk properly?” Giang Hac grabbed his stomach, panting in pain, "That guy Nham Vu is not good at all! Even though he has money, he can change girlfriends as quickly as changing clothes!" He... still went to investigate people. In my current situation, this is like slapping myself in the face. I glared: "Don't make me hate you. Let go." Giang Hac was still fierce, but when he saw my body exposed, he suddenly changed his expression: "Tan Ninh... I really find you very attractive. You don't know how... beautiful you are now." Beautiful his grandfather. I grabbed the TV remote and hit him in the head. Then as if running away, I rushed into the bathroom. I wrapped a towel around my body, panicking, unable to calm down. 【Sorry, I can't intervene.】 "Fatty"'s voice was somewhat guilty. I know he can only attach to living animals, not humans. “I know.” Giang Hac was still apologizing outside the door, knocked a few times and then fell silent. To be honest, the first time I heard "Fatty"'s voice in my head, I thought I was sick. Now, that voice is the only medicine that soothes me. "It's okay, he was just excited for a moment. Wait until he calms down." I reassured myself, even though I knew I couldn't believe it. I bent down and turned on the water in the bathtub. When he was young, Giang Hac was pushed into a pond by his friends out of jealousy, and has since been afraid of water. I filled the tub with water and then gently opened the door to look out. Giang Hac sat on the bed, smoking. Hearing the noise, he looked towards me. He didn't get up. Seems to have calmed down. “I was too excited just now,” he said. “So now you let me go.” He raised his head to look at me, but continued: "Tan Ninh, before I thought I didn't like you. I hated you always following me. I hated you, no matter how I treated you, I didn't get angry. But one day... you left, I realized I was insecure." "Maybe... you don't hate me like you think. You even... miss me a little." If I hadn't known he was bound by the system, I probably would have lost faith. "I'm telling the truth, Qin Ninh. You may not believe it, but I'm... linked to a system." I was stunned. Unexpectedly... he told the truth. I glared at him, only to see him smile bitterly: "You don't believe it, do you? I can't even believe it myself." “What matters? system… Are you talking in your sleep?” At that moment, "Fat" voice rang in my head: 【Host, please don't doubt the system.】 I immediately bowed my head, silently apologizing a thousand times in my heart. Giang Hac continued: “It's true. Just as he got engaged, a voice suddenly rang in his head. He calls himself the system.” I asked: “So what does that system… make you do?” He looked at me, every word clearly: "He told me... to find true love, otherwise... I will die." 11 “So… is this the reason why you broke up with Hua Khiet?” In my heart, there is only a cold laughter left. “The system told me to find 'true love', but Hua Khiet doesn't meet the criteria? Don't you think... maybe it's because you don't know what love is?" Giang Hac suddenly stood up, his tall body casting a shadow, as if he wanted to use his power to overwhelm me. “Yes, the system said she is not your true love.” …What kind of “system” is this? As soon as the task was assigned, the answer was given. You thought this was an open book midterm? “That means… that system says the person you love is really me?” He nodded: "That's right." Seeing that I was still full of doubts, he continued, closing the distance between us. “Tan Ninh, I… really love you. We should belong to each other. Can we stay together? You can't bear to see me die, right?" I felt so nauseous that I just wanted to back away. While retreating, he coaxed: "That system... are you sure it's not due to your mental problem, or hallucinations?" He was stunned for a moment, then changed his approach: “Tan Ninh, how well you treated me before, I saw it in my eyes. I just hope… we can give each other a chance.” I was even more confused: "Don't talk about my memory loss. Let's just say I used to like you. He said he saw all my concern. So why did you choose Hua Khiet and not me?"
