Chapter 6 — The Boss Wants To Be Nam Tieu Tam

Below, netizens took turns scolding:

“Oh my god, is Nam Tieu Tam going public like this now?”

"This woman's husband is nothing, this woman is nothing, I am also nothing. The four of you are all nothing."

The owner replied:

“You guys scold me, I take it all in. But she's not wrong.

It's my fault, I forced her, I forced her. She's just too honest, too soft-hearted. I've thought it through. It's too difficult to meet someone who truly likes you in your life. It's okay to scold me for being a brat, it's okay to scold me for being crazy. It's okay if she doesn't get divorced. I accept. This article will no longer be updated. Thank you everyone for following me crazy for so long.” I looked at that text, my fingers shaking a bit. The next second, Ngon Tham's WeChat jumped in, his tone was so soft that it made people's hearts hurt:

“Sorry, I just got too excited and said something angry.

Don't take it to heart. I do not force you, nor do I ask you to make any decisions. We're still friends, okay? Give me a chance, let me take care of you.” He really makes me want to cry. I'm really not human. But in the end, how straightforward should I be? I sat at home all night. Finally thought it through. Cheating people is inherently wrong. I can't trample on other people's feelings like that. Whatever the outcome, I have to tell you clearly. This time, I don't want to hide anymore.

I opened the chat box between me and Ngon Tham, looking at his numerous words of concern and apology, my heart sank little by little. I took a deep breath and typed a line:

"Ngon Tham, let's meet. I have something to clarify with you."

He answered almost immediately:

“Okay, I'll be there right away.”

We met at a coffee shop that we both really liked. When I arrived, he was sitting in the corner of the bar. There were light dark circles under his eyes, making him look a bit haggard. The usual cold and sharp temperament has also weakened by more than half. Seeing me, his throat moved slightly and his voice was hoarse:

“I thought... you wouldn't want to see me anymore.”

My heart sank. I sat down, my fingertips clenched white, and had difficulty opening my mouth:

“Non Tham, sorry…”

He immediately interrupted me, his eyes filled with self-blame and panic:

"The one who should say sorry is me. I overstepped the bounds, I seduced you. Don't be afraid, don't feel burdened. It's all my fault."

Me: “…” No, brother, your love brain is a bit too much, isn't it? I opened my mouth, intending to tell the truth in one breath, when suddenly two familiar voices came from behind me.

"Thien Thien? Why are you here?"

"Boss? Do you two... know each other?"

My brother and my sister-in-law held hands and stood not far away, their faces filled with terror. Ngon Tham's face immediately cooled down, and the pressure around his body dropped sharply. The eyes looking at my brother were filled with tears. He stood directly in front of me, like a mother hen protecting her chicks, covering me.

“Chu Chi, you know in your heart what you do on your own.” His voice was as cold as ice. "You're too much. Yet you still dare to bring her in front of Thien Thien, you really don't know how to be shameless."

My brother was bewildered:

“???”

I was so scared that my soul was about to fly away. Let me continue, what do you mean "want to divorce", "want to rob people", "I want to be a child" everything will be revealed. My brother could have died on the spot. I quickly grabbed my brother's arm and pulled my sister-in-law to the side:

"Go, go, you two go home first, I'll explain to you later!"

I quickly turned around and said to Ngon Tham:

"He is my brother! My biological brother! I will slowly tell you about this later!"

Without waiting for his reaction, I forcibly took the dim-faced couple away. Waiting for me to return to the cafe, Ngon Tham was still sitting in the same place, his fingertips shaking slightly, his eyes so complicated that I couldn't understand. I pulled him to a quiet side alley. Standing still, I bowed my head low, sincerely apologizing word by word.

"Sorry, Ngon Tham. I lied to you."

"Chu Chi is not my husband, he is my biological brother. The girl I saw that day is my biological sister-in-law."

"I gave him the rice because we made a bet. I lost so I accepted the punishment. He said the rice wasn't good, didn't take me home from playing games, left me waiting in the rain for the car... all of these are everyday quarrels between my brothers, not that he's bullying his wife."

"I saw your post and realized that you misunderstood. Because you are the boss of my brother's company, I saw that you could make him suffer, and suddenly became bad, so I wanted to tease him. I intentionally did not explain, and continued to act according to your misunderstanding..."

I explained all the causes and results, including the bet and the food, completely from beginning to end. The more I talk, the worse the feeling of guilt becomes. He truly felt sorry for me, truly liked me, and was even willing to take on the reputation of being a "little man" to steal me away. Yet I saw his sincerity as a joke to tease my brother.

"I really didn't mean to tease you. I'm sorry. You can punish me however you want. Scold at me, ignore me... if that really doesn't work, I can beat you."
