Chapter 22 — Three Years in Secret
"Diep Van That, don't pretend you don't know me anymore. I know you just don't want to recognize me. No matter what appearance you turn into, your habits tell me that you are my That That.""...""System, is there a problem with this investor's mind?""I see the same." Having received the system's approval, Diep Van That immediately made it clear to Ha Quan Thanh: "Sorry, General Manager Ha. It's not that I don't want to recognize you, it's not that pretend not to know you." "Because I've never really met General Director Ha." Never met... Even though Diep Van That said it so clearly, Ha Quan Thanh still didn't seem to believe it at all. He still insisted that she was his That That. Faced with that endless entanglement, Diep Van That no longer cares about Ha Quan Thanh's status anymore. She said frankly: "General Manager Ha, even though you are very rich and are now my investor, there must be evidence to talk. Can you show me what your That That looks like?" Ha Quan Thanh couldn't keep a single photo of Diep Van That in his phone, and couldn't show her any evidence at all. Seeing that Ha Quan Thanh never took out Diep Van That's photo, she was even more certain that what he said was all fake. "General Manager Ha, if you like to continue being unreasonable here, I can only call security to invite you out." Each of her words was much more sincere than before. At least at first, just because they were unfamiliar, they were a bit distant and polite. But now Diep Van That's tone towards him has turned into disgust. His eyes became wet, his eyes looking at Diep Van That became a little more sad and pitiful. As if he was asking for her pity, he spoke hesitantly: "That That... are you the one on the mission of conquest? If you are the one on the mission of conquest, you can try to believe what I say." That sentence made Diep Van That's eyes look at him more suspicious and hesitant. Diep Van That didn't understand the story even more, so he could only temporarily ask the system, which was always silent. "What is this? Why does he know about the person on the conquest mission?" The system seemed completely unconcerned, only using one sentence to let it go: "Maybe he is the male protagonist who was hurt by a person on the conquest mission, and then considered you the person who harmed him." Diep Van That half believed, half doubted, but in the end still temporarily believed it. "Yes, I am the one on the conquest mission. But I'm sure I don't know you, and I also hope you don't come to disturb my conquest plan. Thank you." Seeing Diep Van That about to leave, Ha Quan Thanh still did not want to give up, reached out to hold her hand. Diep Van That was held in pain by him, struggling and telling Ha Quan Thanh to let go. Ha Quan Thanh looked at her, cautiously probing, his voice choked in his throat, bitter and hoarse: "Is it really impossible to go back?" Seeing that Ha Quan Thanh still refused to believe her identity, a look of helplessness and amusement appeared in her eyes. "Ha Quan Thanh, how long are you going to go crazy?" It was this sentence that made Ha Quan Thanh seem to see Diep Van That's shadow in her. Faced with her cold rejection and scolding, Ha Quan Thanh was unmoved, even... a little happy. His face was pale, cold and sad. A long time later he spoke up, his voice very soft: "Don't push me away, okay..." "I know you're back. You scolded me, hit me, whatever, just don't leave me..."Leave? Diep Van That had never met Ha Quan Thanh, nor had she ever been with him. How can it be called leaving? Diep Van That's voice was extremely determined: "Ha Quan Thanh, let go!" The shout made Ha Quan Thanh so scared and confused that he stood frozen in place. Diep Van That took the opportunity to escape his grasp. Ha Quan
Thanh saw the disgust and hatred clearly in Diep Van That's eyes. At this time, he gradually realized that he seemed to have ruined the relationship between the two. Ha Quan Thanh knew that his impression in Diep Van That's heart was extremely bad. Actually, he didn't expect the Diep Van That in front of him to remember him. He thought, does it mean that after every time she conquers a person, she will lose a piece of her memory? If so, Ha Quan Thanh also feels very good. That way, Diep Van That will forget those memories of disappointment and pain, then start again. Ha Quan Thanh's eyes were too hot, too deep. Even though Diep Van That is very wary of him now, she still can't help but wonder if she really knew him or not. But the system doesn't say more. Diep Van That also knows that she has a memory that she cannot remember clearly. The system had told her from the beginning that because the conquest mission failed, there would be a period of freezing after being deleted. During the freeze, memories of the previous failed mission will be erased. If they really had met, it was possible that Ha Quan Thanh was the male protagonist of the previous mission that she failed. If the mission fails, it means that the person named Ha Quan Thanh in front of her doesn't love her in the end. But now he comes here again. This seems contradictory.
