He forgot how long it had been since he stopped being my ears. (Because the time I blocked that knife, my hearing was damaged.) Phong Dien's coldness crumbled little by little. Instead there was extreme suffering. He left a voicemail.

“On Kieu, stop causing trouble, go home quickly.”

"I will propose to you again. If you don't come back, I won't propose again."

“On Kieu, I promise you, I will keep my distance from Lam Nhiem in the future.”

But it took a long time. He did not receive any response. He doesn't know, I will never answer him again. 6 Phong Dien stayed up all night. The next day, as soon as he arrived at the hospital, he went straight to the hospital room. My mother's hospital room has been replaced with a new patient. Phong Dien was a little confused. Serious patients are often not easily changed rooms. He pulled a nurse over to ask about the situation.

“Where did the patient in this bed go?”

“The other night, that woman did not survive the emergency and passed away. I remember that her daughter had completed the hospital discharge procedure and death certificate.”

Phong Dien's eyes were red. The voice seemed to hiss through gritted teeth.

“Say that again.”

The nurse didn't understand why but kept repeating.

“That woman who had an emergency last night and couldn't survive has passed away.”

Phong Dien's body staggered. Standing is also unsteady.

“Is what On Kieu said true?”

He remembered my miserable pleading that day, along with his own turning a blind eye. Phong Dien turned around and left. In the clinic, Lam Nhiem is looking at medical records. The door was pushed in violently. Phong Dien's face was black, his eyes were burning with anger.

“Have you been able to contact On Kieu?”

Lam Nhiem doesn't know what's wrong with him. Carefully answer:

“Let me try.”

She picked up the phone on the table and called me. The phone turned off immediately. Called several times in a row, all the same. Her number has been blocked. Lam Nhiem felt unbelievable. With a friendship of several years in college, how could I block her?

"What's wrong with Tieu Kieu, why did you suddenly block my number?"

Phong Dien closed his eyes, his tone was desperate.

“Auntie passed away, On Kieu left.”

“What? Aunt passed away?”

“No way.”

Lam Nhiem excitedly grabbed Phong Dien's arm.

"Auntie is still healthy? How could she suddenly die?"

Phong Dien took out the file he just pulled out from the file room.

“Auntie was agitated, a malignant brain tumor developed.”

Agitated? Lam Nhiem suddenly remembered something. Her face was cut off without a drop of blood.

"The day I brought chicken soup... could you have been awake?"

Phong Dien was reminded by her, his face darkened. At that time, he was only worried about Lam Nhiem's leg being burned, completely ignoring the situation on the hospital bed. That day he even pushed me to the ground. If you see it. How heartbreaking it must be. Phong Dien felt uncomfortable in his chest and had difficulty breathing.

“A Dien, I didn't expect things to turn out like this…”

Lam Nhiem began to regret. She really didn't want to provoke a sick old person. Moreover, in college, she often came to my house to eat. The relationship with my aunt is also very good. Phong Dien took a deep breath.

"Lam Nhiem, we were all wrong."

"That day, we should have trusted Wen Qiao, so we should go over there and take a look. After all, the doctor on duty was not the main surgeon."

“If I went there, maybe my aunt didn't..."

Lam Nhiem's eyes also became blurred.

“I thought On Kieu was just jealous and intentionally lying. If I knew she was seriously ill, I would definitely have told you to leave.”

Phong Dien placed the medical records on Lam Nhiem's table. Gently utter a sentence.

“Lin Nhiem, we all owe Wen Qiao an apology.”

Lam Nhiem tensed and opened his mouth.

“A Dien, we…”

She hesitated. But still want to inquire. Phong Dien turned his head, his eyes cold and piercing.
