Chapter 12 — The Six Year Lie
He looked at Ha Giao Giao holding her child, then looked at Thinh Tri Ha, his eyebrows furrowed. Tears fell from Ha Giao Giao's eyes: "Cam Xuyen, Hoan Hoan has been coughing for several days. I took the child to the doctor, but Tri Ha didn't look closely and said it wasn't serious, telling her to go take medicine. I really don't feel secure..." To Cam Xuyen took Hoan Hoan from Ha Giao Giao, bowed his head, looked at the child's face, and touched his forehead. Hoan Hoan does have a slight cough, but his face is normal and he doesn't have a fever. To Cam Xuyen returned Hoan Hoan to Ha Giao Giao, turned to look at Thinh Tri Ha, lowered his voice: "You handled it too lightly just now. The child is sick, the parents are impatient, you should sympathize. Without a thorough examination, you told them to go home, how can the parents rest assured?" Thinh Tri Ha looked at him, her voice calm: "Doctor To, I checked. Temperature is thirty-six point five, throat is mildly congested, lungs are not abnormal, spirit is good. In the early stages of upper respiratory tract infection, there is no need for intravenous fluids, no need to be hospitalized, taking medicine is fine. If you don't feel secure, Dr. Ha herself is also a nurse, she should have seen it." She took a pen from her bag, wrote a few lines on the prescription paper and handed it over: "This is the name of the drug, how to use it and dosage." The hallway was silent for a moment. To Cam Xuyen received the paper, looked at it, and stopped. It's written very clearly on it. He raised his head to look at Thinh Tri Ha, his lips moved: "Tri Ha, just now..." "Doctor To, if there's nothing else, I still have to work." Thinh Tri Ha interrupted him. To Cam Xuyen stood there, clasped the paper in his hand, looked at her, lowered his voice very low: "Sorry, Tri Ha. I shouldn't have said that to you just now. There's no problem with the way you handle it, it's me..." "To Cam Xuyen." Thinh Tri Ha's voice was very calm. "You are the child's father, it's normal to worry, I understand." After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave. To Cam Xuyen reached out to hold her wrist. A hand came from the side and pushed his hand away. Gian Dien stood next to Thinh Tri Ha, looked at To Cam Xuyen but did not speak, just turned to her and said: "Let's go." Thinh Tri Ha nodded and followed Gian Dien. The two walked out of the hospital gate, sunlight shining on their faces. Gian Dien walked beside her. After a while, he spoke up: "You handled it right just now. In that situation, if you still said everything clearly, changing to someone else would have panicked." Thinh Tri Ha did not speak. "You are very good." Gian Dien said one more sentence. Thinh Tri Ha smiled slightly. Gian Dien was silent for a moment: "If you encounter something like this in the future, you can call me." Thinh Tri Ha shook his head: "I can handle it myself." Gian Dien looked at her and said nothing more. Coming to the car, he opened the door. Thinh Tri Ha sat in, leaned back in his chair, and looked out the window. Gian Dien started the car. After walking a bit, he said: "I know you can handle it, but you don't need to bear it yourself every time." Thinh Tri Ha did not speak. The car stopped below the apartment. Thinh Tri Ha opened the car door, turned to look at Gian Dien: "Thank you, Gian Dien." Gian Dien nodded, watched her go upstairs, then sat in the car for a while before starting to leave. PART 14 All the way home, To Cam Xuyen and Ha Giao Giao did not say a word. Ha Giao Giao hugged Hoan Hoan and sat in the back seat, looking out the window. To Cam Xuyen looked at her through the rearview mirror but said nothing. Arriving home, Ha Giao Giao gave Hoan Hoan to the nanny who ran out to greet her and then turned around and went into the bedroom. To Cam Xuyen followed and closed the door. “How is Hoan Hoan's cold?” he asked. Ha Giao Giao's hand that was taking off her coat paused: "It's just cold. There's no child who doesn't get a cold." "Last night she coughed all night, don't you know?" Ha Giao Giao turned around to look at him, threw the coat on the bed, raised her voice: "What do you mean? Are you blaming me? I'm the only one taking care of the child, you're at the hospital every day. The child is sick and you don't know, so now you're turning to me."
ask me?” To Cam Xuyen did not speak. Ha Giao Giao took a step forward and poked his chest with her hand: "To Cam Xuyen, don't think I don't know what your intentions are when you come to the hospital today." Did you come to visit Hoan Hoan? Come and see Thinh Tri Ha! She just came back, you can't walk anymore, right?" To Cam Xuyen frowned and did not answer. Ha Giao Giao's voice became louder and louder. From the story of Hoan Hoan having a cold, she moved on to the story of his promotion, then from the story of the promotion to Thinh Tri Ha. To Cam Xuyen leaned against the wardrobe, bowed her head, not saying a word. Ha Giao Giao was tired of talking, carried Hoan Hoan to the living room and slammed the bedroom door. To Cam Xuyen stood alone in the room, the surroundings became quiet again. I remember before. At that time, he was famous for being cold and unapproachable, and the whole academy knew he was difficult to pursue. Thinh Tri Ha was determined not to give up, offering water, holding a place, carrying an umbrella, following for a long time before he finally relaxed his hand to let her hold. Later, when she knelt down, when she said she was pregnant, he still thought she would never leave. He picked up the phone and opened the chat window with Thinh Tri Ha. The chat history still stops at two years ago, at the message he sent: "Have you caused enough trouble?" She did not answer. He typed a line: "Tri Ha, I'm sorry about today, I was wrong."
