Chapter 3 — My Ex-Fiance and My Secret Lover

04

The wind on the riverbank is very strong. I found a bench to sit down, my mood was like a broken neon light reflecting on the river surface. Luc Ngon stepped forward. I cringed, helplessly saying:

“Sorry, you don't need to follow me. I want to be alone.”

He sat down on the other end of the couch.

“I won't talk, but I don't feel safe leaving you alone.”

As expected, he didn't say anything more. He is still as quiet as when he was in school.

“Thank you for not telling me to turn back.”

"I'm also very angry, how can I advise you?"

Hearing him say that, I wanted to laugh a bit, so I looked at him. In my memory, he was tall, thin, and wore glasses. Now he doesn't wear glasses anymore, his facial features are clear, on the contrary he looks even neater and more mature than before. At this moment, he frowned, seemingly really angry. A moment later, the phone in my pocket vibrated. It's Tran Hang.

"Wife, where are you? I just went to pick up Luc Ngon and didn't see her. When I came back, you were gone too!"

I calmly said:

“Cancel the wedding tomorrow.”

The other end of the line was strangely quiet for a second, his voice was a bit unhappy:

"What's wrong with you? What childish behavior are you acting on again? Hua Y, you're getting married tomorrow! All of your classmates have all come back from other places, relatives and friends have already informed you, so can you not cause trouble at this hour?"

Disturb? If this is called rioting, then at this moment I really want to riot.

“I'm serious.”

I said.

“Where are you... making fun of me again?”

Finally he realized something was wrong.

“I don't want you to bring regrets into marriage.”

I spoke softly, word by word.

“Me too.”

His voice began to panic:

“Are you… am I misunderstanding something? Wife, listen to my explanation… Sigh, I drank too much, I'm a bit out of control tonight.”

"There's nothing between me and Liu Wei Wei, don't misunderstand her. She can also explain to you!"

Luu Vi Vi's voice rang out right next to him:

"Tieu Y, Tran Hang drank too much and talked nonsense, don't pay attention. Where are you? I'm coming to you."

“No need.”

I interrupted her.

“Luc Ngon is by my side.”

On the phone, Tran Hang's voice rang again. This time, his voice was much quieter and much gentler.

"Baby, you go home first. I'll go home right away too. I'll explain clearly to you in front of you. Can we not make trouble anymore? I only have you in my heart, don't you know? Wait for me, I've already called the driver to drive for me."

… His tone was exactly the same as usual after making me angry, using that sticky, sticky voice to comfort me. After that, he called Luc Ngon again, apparently asking him to take me home. The night wind is getting colder and colder. I suddenly felt a pain in my stomach and couldn't help but hug my stomach. Luc Ngon immediately noticed that I was different:

“Hua Y, are you unwell?”

He immediately called a car to take me to the hospital.

At the hospital, the doctor diagnosed me with stomach cramps. This is my old disease. Previously, just having strong emotional fluctuations or being cold would cause an effect. When I got to the hospital, I vomited so much that I was weak. The doctor told me to get intravenous fluids. Luc Ngon is next to me. He paid the money, took the medicine, ran back and forth, then always stayed by the hospital bed, helping me Apply warm compresses. This reminds me of the year I graduated, I also had this disease, and Tran Hang was at my bedside taking care of me. At that time, I was so sure that this life was him. Tran Hang's parents are local people, have a small business, and have wide connections. This wedding also invited many business partners. Tran Hang works in his father's company. He lives in a wedding house worth five or six million yuan, drives a car worth five or six hundred thousand yuan, receives a salary of five or six thousand yuan, and lives a carefree and carefree life. Their whole family treated me very well. His parents said that once they get married, they should prepare for pregnancy and don't need to rush to work. Family conditions are good, there's no need for me to earn those few coins. My family is in a small town, my parents both work at a credit fund. Tran Hang's mouth is sweet, my parents are extremely satisfied with this son-in-law. From childhood to adulthood, my life was so smooth that I never made any "rebellious" decisions. In the hospital room, both my body and mind were uncomfortable, my heart was confused, I could only confide in Luc Ngon.

"If I really canceled the wedding, wouldn't that be too much? The wedding invitations have already been distributed, and both my parents' faces have been ruined by me. I wonder how many people will talk about me."

Luc Ngon paused, then calmly said:

"When you get married, you get married, not your parents getting married, nor your relatives or friends getting married. Now you just need to care about your own feelings."

Previously, I heard Tran Hang say that Luc Ngon is the "other person's child" that he hates the most. His parents always praised Luc Ngon endlessly, so he quite disliked Luc Ngon, even nicknamed him "Ho Lo". But Luc Ngon is quiet and not boring at all. What he said was very reasonable, just one sentence spoke to my heart. An hour and a half later, Tran Hang's phone call finally came. I don't listen. Very quickly, his phone called Luc Ngon:

"Where is Tieu Y? Have you taken her home yet? Why isn't she at home? She doesn't answer the phone either!"

From the restaurant to home, drive twenty minutes at most. Now he just returned home. In other words, when I was most upset, he stayed with Luu Vi Vi for more than an hour before returning. He basically didn't take my anger seriously.
