Chapter 14 — Old Love Turns to Ashes
Giang Tu Nien chased after a few steps, but finally stopped. The moment the elevator door closed, I saw him standing next to the car, his head bowed, his whole body like a tree blown by the wind. The elevator goes up, the numbers jump step by step. I leaned my back against the wall, looking up at the ceiling light bulb in bewilderment. I can't even describe what that feeling is. There was no love and hate as imagined, no loud struggle, more just a sigh of frustration. Even though the circumstances are completely different, I still remember the year I was 22 years old. The old house I rented had an electrical short circuit and caught fire in the middle of the night. While unconsciously, I dialed his number. Even though I couldn't say a word, he still rushed forward. In the middle of the fire, he hugged me tightly and protected me.
“A Mien, don't be afraid, I will always protect you.”
The moment the crossbar fell, his eyes turned red and he pushed me away. I was hit by a beam and almost couldn't wake up. To this day, he still has a 10 cm long scar on his body. But I later learned that at that time, he was already secretly dating Van Van. So what exactly is love, until now I still don't have the answer. With a ding, the elevator reached the 18th floor. I stepped out and pushed the meeting room door. The partners had already arrived. The director waved at me:
“Quickly sit down, wait for me forever.”
I pulled up my chair, opened the computer, and turned on the presentation. Sunlight shines through the large glass door, covering the entire table.
“Yes.”
I smiled and said:
“So let's get started.”
