Chapter 8 — The Rest Of Your Life Is Sweet

Updated 10/08/2026 5 min read

The owner, Lao Vuong, just looked and recognized us.

"Oh! Dr. Hoac! You've finally found your little girlfriend!"

Old Vuong's enthusiastic greeting made surrounding diners turn their heads to look. I hid my face behind Hoac Tranh's back, no longer having the face to meet anyone. Two pots of crayfish with garlic sauce that had just finished being cooked were brought to the table, with a mouth-watering aroma. Hoac Tranh wears disposable gloves. Flexible fingers peel shrimp. Less than ten minutes. In the white ceramic bowl in front of me, there was an extremely attractive mountain of crayfish meat. Each piece is coated with a rich garlic sauce. I used a spoon to scoop up a large piece, so satisfied that I almost sighed. Just in time I ate so much grease around my mouth. Hoac Tranh naturally took off his gloves and used a wet towel to wipe his hands. Then he took out a dark blue velvet box from his pocket.

With a "click" sound, the box was opened.

Under bright lights. A DR diamond ring as large as a pigeon's egg was quietly lying on the black velvet. Hoac Tranh pushed the chair out. Before the surprised eyes of customers at dozens of surrounding tables, he knelt down on one knee. He raised his head, his dark eyes reflecting my image.

“My Giai, a man's promise cannot be based solely on his mouth.”

His voice trembled slightly, revealing rare tension.

"This ring can only be ordered once in a lifetime. I used my ID and doctor's practice certificate to register."

“Do you agree to give me a legal identity, so that I can take care of you and your daughter for the rest of your life?”

The surroundings immediately became noisy. Old Vuong and several regular customers frantically tapped beer bottle caps and shouted encouragement.

“Agree! Agree!”

"Girl, Dr. Hoac got drunk at our restaurant several times to find you!"

Looking at the man kneeling on one knee in front of me, his eyes full of sincerity. My heart was hot, the words "yes" were almost about to burst out of my throat. But I immediately bit the tip of my tongue, maintaining the last bit of pride. ## 9

“Respect the crayfish and the ring…”

I blushed, grabbed the ring box and stuffed it into my pocket.

“I decided to give you one more final month of probation!”

“One month later, I will see how you perform before deciding whether to sign an official contract or not!”

I thought Hoac Tranh would be disappointed. Unexpectedly, the smile in his eyes became even stronger, he stood up directly and patted my head.

“As ordered, Director Tran.”

From that day. The coldest director of the neurosurgery department, Huo, has completely transformed into an all-powerful model husband. Every late night. As long as Niem Gia makes a little noise in the crib. Hoac Tranh immediately jumped up with precision like radar. Changing diapers, mixing milk, burping, movements are more proficient than a babysitter. During the day I sit on the balcony drawing illustrations. As soon as he gets off work, he will wear an apron and exchange enough stew and soup for me in the kitchen. Even in my main job, he wants to interfere.

“The saturation of this color scheme can be reduced by another two percent.”

Hoo Tranh placed a plate of pre-cut cherries in front of my table and glanced at the screen.

“What do you know, this is called cyberpunk style!”

I rolled my eyes.

“I don't understand art, but I understand anatomy.”

He pointed to the chibi character on the screen.

“The direction of the muscles in this shoulder and neck line is a bit off. Drawing it this way will make it easier to see.”

After correcting the words Man, the image has indeed become much more harmonious. What surprised me the most was three days later. The top animation IP in the country called "Than Tich" that I dreamed about wanting to cooperate with proactively sent a contract. Furthermore, the royalty rate is thirty percent higher than the highest industry standard. I hugged my iPad and screamed on the sofa. Lam Duu was sitting on the carpet eating potato chips. Hearing that, his eyes immediately widened.

“You idiot, do you really think cakes fall from the sky?”

Lam Duu used the tip of his finger covered in oil to poke my forehead.

“The general supervisor of that IP is the biological brother of Dr. Hoac's university classmate!”

"Doctor Hoac personally held the book of work you drew for half a year, and waited in someone else's company for two hours!"

"And pay out of your own pocket, help you pay enough money to ensure the risk of violating the contract!"

I was stunned on the spot. Turning his head to look at the tall figure in the kitchen, seriously removing fish bones. My heart felt like it was filled with a jar of honey, so sweet that it was about to overflow. In recent days, Lam Duu used the excuse of "postpartum care" to force him to stay in our house to eat. Her biggest joy every day. It's holding the phone and cutting together the daily life of me and Hoac Tranh into a short video. Add super silly background music and post it on the video platform.

“The cold doctor's life of pursuing his humble wife”

“The stubborn female lead and the almighty husband who pampers his wife to the fullest”

More than two months. Lam Duu's account suddenly became famous, crazy with eight hundred thousand followers. The comment section is full of fans of the couple crying and waiting to be given directions. 【Please, you two! I have transferred the civil affairs department to my house, immediately go and register my marriage!】 【The female lead's mouth is so strong that she can bite a diamond, but Dr. Huo spoils her too much!】 【Today is another day of turning into a sour lemon in someone else's love!】
