Chapter 2 — The Enemy's New Wife

2

Return to the room. I didn't care about the sudden vacancy next to Tong Yen. Just sat quietly in the corner, continuing to look at the phone. Seeing that, Tong Yen's face became even colder, he drank each glass of red wine frantically.

"Some people are truly shameless, letting Tong Yen come back to the point of making up the marriage story."

"Do you think you are gold or jade? Without you, Tong Yen wouldn't be able to live?"

"At most, it's just a toy that Tong Yen has been toying with for four years, just like her stillborn mother, only good at playing tricks on men."

I turned off the phone screen and threw it straight into La Chi Chi's face.

“Can you try barking again?”

The atmosphere was as tense as a string, no one dared to speak. Tong Yen frowned, her drunken eyes looked at me lazily, the sound of La Chi Chi crying in pain was still in her ears. He put down the glass of wine.

“Lam Nhiem, sorry.”

Tong Yen's voice was cold as ice. Whenever La Chi Chi and I have a conflict, he always takes her side. I laughed coldly in my heart. My indifferent attitude made Tong Yen even more uncomfortable. In the past, as long as he opened his mouth, no matter how unwilling I was in my heart, in the end I would still bow my head and apologize to La Chi Chi for the feelings between us.

“What? Are you so angry that you took a risk?”

"What did I say wrong? Lam Nhiem, you are just a woman without a father or mother, by the way, that's right."

La Chi Chi hid behind Tong Yen, still not forgetting to provoke me like a habit. She knows that no matter how much she says too much, Tong Yen will eventually protect her.

“Chi Chi, don't talk like that to your sister-in-law.”

Sure enough, Tong Yen just gently patted her head, pretending that the insult I just had never existed. I suddenly burst out laughing. Hold the bottle of wine next to you and pour it into a glass. Tong Yen's eyes softened, thinking that I had finally bowed my head to La Chi Chi. La Chi Chi also reflexively reached out to receive it, her lips curled into a sarcastic smile.

"Lam Nhiem... no, sister-in-law, you know? The way you raise your glass now is even more like a dog."

“Is that so?”

I smiled back. The next second, when La Chi Chi had not yet had time to react. I broke the wine glass, grabbed her hair, poured all the wine and broken glass into her mouth. Tong Yen immediately pushed me away.

“Lam Nhiem, are you crazy?!”

“Chi Chi just said a few words, nothing to do with you.”

“So was it worth it for me and my mother to be scolded like that?”

Blood flowed from the corner of La Chi Chi's mouth. She leaned into Tong Yen's arms, looking at me with both fear and hatred. I squinted my eyes.

“Still looking?”

“La Chi Chi, it seems you don't need these eyes anymore.”

“Lam Nhiem!!”

Tong Yen finally couldn't bear it anymore and lowered her voice to warn. He bent down and picked up La Chi Chi. Only then did everyone regain their composure and hastily help Tong Yen open the bathroom door and treat La Chi Chi's wound. I sat still in my seat, clearly hearing the growing chatter in the bathroom.

"Brother Yen, what are you thinking? Chi Chi is the brother who lives and dies with you from childhood to adulthood."

"What about Lam Nhiem? What kind of woman is that crazy, why do you feel sorry for her? Ha Chi Chi is so seriously injured, this cannot be ignored."

“So what do you want? Star?"

Tong Yen's frustrated voice rang out, and the whole room immediately fell silent. A moment later, he spoke again.

“Okay, I will let Lam Nhiem give Chi Chi an explanation, first take Chi Chi to the hospital.”

“What about Co Thua Dich? When he came, the old man had already warned him that this time it was mainly to get along with him."

Tong Yen's face darkened and she opened the door. The group of close friends behind me also walked out one by one, each of them glanced at me full of resentment before leaving, then helped La Chi Chi downstairs. There were only two of us left in the room. Tong Yen squeezed her forehead and frowned.

“Lam Nhiem, you've overdone it this time. Even if you're jealous because of me and hate Chi Chi, you shouldn't really touch her."

When did Tong Yen become so narcissistic? I didn't answer, I just found it funny. Take the bank card and put it on the table.

“I pay her hospital bills.”

"Tong Yen, we broke up."

Four years ago, on that rainy night. Tong Yen knelt all night in front of my mother's portrait. While trembling and cold, he bit my lip and said:

"Lam Nhiem, I beg you, just look at me, let's be together, let me take care of you for my mother?"

Looking at his red eyes, my heart softened. Then, La Chi Chi was provoked time and time again. I had a fever. Tong Yen was going to buy medicine when she dragged me to sing karaoke. On the anniversary of my mother's death, I sat alone at the grave, surrounded by loud laughter, La Chi Chi also set up a grill, and Tong Yen's friends drank wine and joked happily. One thing after another, I was tired of the repeated arguments because of La Chi Chi. A love that continues to be in such a state of anxiety and insecurity, I should have let go a long time ago.

“Lam Nhiem, what do you mean?”
