Chapter 7 — Mother's Long Minh Lamp

7The rumors spread so fiercely that your mother gave me a check for one million and told me to leave you. But it was Tong Han Thinh who appeared, standing in front of everyone, resolutely saying: "Mom, I understand clearly what kind of person Lam Nam is. She is absolutely not the type of woman who will use any means to climb high." Unexpectedly, the man who once proudly stood up to protect me, never believed in my innocence. It turns out, he always doubted me. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but laugh bitterly: "Tong Han Thinh, it turns out that in your eyes I have always been the kind of woman with a heart. If that's the case, why are you still with me? Why didn't you say goodbye sooner?" He didn't dare look straight at me, remaining silent. Diep Thanh Nguyet thought she understood him well, so she opened her mouth to explain for him: "Of course it's because the senior brother is gentle and doesn't want to get along with me. If a woman has a reputation for taking advantage of her children to get into a wealthy family, who will dare to marry her in the future?" So that's it. A sweet and salty taste rose in my throat, I tilted my head back, my eyes filled with tears. Tong Han Thinh pulled Diep Thanh Nguyet's hand, his voice impatient: "That's enough, you don't know anything, don't add fuel to the fire!" In her shocked eyes, he turned to me, a little embarrassed, lowered his voice: "It's not like that, Lam Nam, don't listen to her nonsense. I never broke up with you because I realized I really love you, I can't bear to let you leave." Diep Thanh Nguyet's eyes almost exploded. unwillingly shouted: "Senior brother, you lied to me, right? How can you really love a woman like her? What's good about her? Her family background is not worthy, her education is not as good as anyone else, her job is mediocre, and full of intrigue. You definitely deceived me, right!?"Tong Han Thinh looked at her, gradually losing patience: "Diep Thanh Nguyet, that's enough! Who do you still need my permission to love? I just like Nam Nam, I love her, baby." Do you understand?" Diep Thanh Nguyet's legs softened and she fell to the ground like a thunderbolt. Bloodshot eyes, voice full of hatred: "No way! You can't really love her! If you love her, why are you still treating me well? If you love her, then we... what are we!?" A question that made Tong Han Thinh choke. That's right, if you really love me, then why do you hurt me over and over again? Why didn't you come back immediately when your mother was in critical condition? Actually, he never loved me. He is only used to the unconditional love I give him, used to my every little care. You don't love me, you just need an unpaid maid. Thinking of this, I raised my head. In front of me, the cold iron bulldozer obscured the gray sky, also obscured my childhood. Smoke filled the air, my last house turned into ruins. Eight years of love, in exchange for half my life, in exchange for my mother's death, in exchange for not even having a place to return to. In my haze, I heard my mother's voice. Turning her head, she stood in the ruins, opened her arms, and smiled kindly: "Nam Nam, if you feel sad, come back to my arms. I'm always here, by your side." Tears welled up in my eyes, I staggered to my feet, walking towards the pile of rubble. All the resentment and sadness seemed to burst when I saw my mother's figure. "Sorry mom, it's all my fault. I miss you so much... since you left, every minute and every second I miss you..." The bulldozer driver was still busy working, no one noticed me stepping into the rubble. When Tong Han Thinh realized, I was standing right under the excavator bucket hanging above my head. In just a moment, it will fall. In that moment, Tong Han Thinh knocked Diep Thanh Nguyet away, rushed forward, and pinned me to the ground. Amid the shaking of heaven and earth, I heard his voice tremble in my ear: "Nam Nam, don't be afraid, I'm here." Right after that, I fainted.

Go. Before losing consciousness, something splashed on my face - hot, smelling of blood. When I woke up, I realized that Tong Han Thinh had his legs crushed by a bulldozer to save me. As for me, thanks to him holding me tightly in my arms, I remained intact. I had just propped myself up and sat up on the bed, when I bumped into an angry Diep Thanh Nguyet rushing in. The once haughty princess, now crying so much that her makeup was smeared and her eyes were red, looked at me like an enemy robbing her grave.
