Thien Tang gently pulled his hand out of Nha Tien's head, then crept out of bed, pushed open the door, stepped out onto the balcony, and dialed the number to call Thang Vu.
This afternoon, when he heard his father-in-law announce an important matter, his mood also sank.
Thien Tang wants to know why Thang Vu transferred the family business.
Apparently, he's already passed the most difficult period.
After three days of thinking, Kien Duc Trieu also agreed to buy Thang Minh company.
Although he was very angry with Thang Vu for suddenly breaking up with Thi San, causing her to leave the country, this was a profitable investment, so he accepted it.
Moreover, in the early days of the company's establishment, he and Thang Thien struggled to cope.
Honestly, he did not want it to fall into the hands of others or disappear forever in the market.
- I'm listening, Thien Tang. - The pianist's voice softly spoke.
- What is the matter of transferring the company?
- I want to have time to rest and recuperate.
- Thang Vu, only I know about your illness and have kept it a secret for you for the past two years. Tell me, what's wrong with you?
Thien Tang's worried tone forced Thang Vu to tell him the truth that he had rejected the feelings of the secretary's daughter and that Tien Luc Phan was targeting Thang Minh company.
Instead of trying to fight back and getting injured all over his body, he chose to retreat safely.
Why is your life so turbulent? – Thien Tang sighed and lamented.
- Maybe I lived a bad life in my previous life, so this life should pay for it. Okay, I'm going to bed, good night.
Thang Vu's laughter did not make Thien Tang's mood better.
He used to admire Thang Vu when he saw that the guy had everything in his hand.
Thien Tang did not expect that after such a short period of time, the world changed.
Thang Vu lost his family, lost his lover, his career was about to fall into the hands of others, and in the future, his hands could not be flexible when placed on the piano keys.
In the end, he was left with nothing but a sick, painful body.
The moment Thien Tang turned around, about to go back to bed, he almost fainted when he saw his wife's teary eyes.
- What disease does Mr. Thang Vu have? - Nha Tien tried to hold back her emotions and demanded.
- Oh, it's nothing, you…
- Don't lie to me. What disease was hidden for two years? The transfer of the company is related to his illness, right?
- It is multiple sclerosis. – Thien Tang looked into her eyes and answered softly.
Nha Tien's legs almost lost their balance. She staggered back against the wall.
Wasn't that time when her father withdrew the shares?
He had to cope with the disease and worry about the company's finances.
If she didn't love him, her father wouldn't treat him like that.
- Nha Tien, calm down. – Thien Tang quickly hugged his wife in his arms, trying to reassure her.
She couldn't say a word, only clutched at Thien Tang's shoulder to ease her grief.
How deep are Nha Tien's feelings for Thang Vu, Thien Tang understands very well, so he knows her current state of mind.
Her childhood and youth were associated with Thang Vu's figure, so how could she not be hurt when she knew his situation now?
Because Thien Tang was afraid of Nha Tien being hit by the night wind, he carefully carried her inside, laid her down on the bed, and slowly told her the truth.
When Nha Tien knew that Thang Vu accepted to be a bad guy, personally pushed Thi San out of his life to bring happiness and a bright future to the person he loved, Nha Tien burst into tears like wind and rain.
His love is too noble, not selfish.
After all, how hard must he try to be able to smile at everyone around him?
Everything had slipped along the track and could not be turned back, so Nha Tien could only weep for Thang Vu.
She came to see him on an afternoon with no sun, only dark clouds swirling over the tall buildings.
When she stood in the middle of this scene, she felt the loneliness and fear of not having a shoulder by her side, whether female or male.
The cafe is located in an empty alley with only a few customers.
But when there were more Thang Vu and Nha Tien in, it made the small cafe even more gloomy and sad because she kept crying.
Although she tried to tell herself to hold back her tears, as soon as she saw him, she couldn't control her tear glands.
- Don't cry anymore, Nha Tien. Anyway, this disease won't make me die quickly. Thien Tang also said a lot of people with this disease will live to old age and die because they are too old.
- But you will be alone. Who will take care of you? – She said in a sob.
- Don't be too worried. I can still take care of myself. If in the future, I have difficulty moving, I will hire a helper.
The more calm he was, the more painful she was.
More than once, she tried to ask her husband about Thi San's whereabouts, but Thien Tang said he didn't know because the arrangement to bring Thi San abroad was handled by Thang Vu.
He couldn't even see that the piano teacher's face was white or black, distorted or round.
After leaving the cafe, Nha Tien carried her puffy eyes and drove to the kindergarten to pick up her child.
She gave birth to Thien Tang a son who was identical to him from appearance to personality.
Sometimes, she felt like she was a surrogate mother. Her son is nothing like his mother from head to toe.
The company transfer procedures are still in the final stage, but Thang Vu has left the leadership position and given it to Kien Duc Trieu.
These days, he leisurely chooses house models and also chooses a large and peaceful piece of land in the countryside as he originally wanted.
Ten minutes after Nha Tien left, he slowly stood up and paid the money.
For the past two years, he hasn't had a day to eat at home because no one is cooking, and even though he's free on weekends, he doesn't cook because he feels cold and sad when he eats alone.
He just went to the restaurant, sat in the middle of the crowd to make his mood a little bustling, ate a little, and then returned, even though he didn't like noise before.
- Thanh Phong. – Thang Vu called out when he saw Thanh Phong standing and buying rice.
- Are you going to have dinner? - Thanh Phong asked excitedly.
- Uh, just finished eating. Ngoc Vy is craving grilled pork ribs rice, right? I see you've been gaining weight with her lately.
Thanh Phong nodded proudly.
When Ngoc Vy was pregnant, she kept remembering the dishes she used to eat when she was alone at the inn, so he had to pamper his wife.
When she wanted to eat, he ran to buy it at that time and he also had to eat with her because he was afraid that she would be sad.
Pregnant women are terrifyingly sensitive. They infer strange things themselves.
- Where's your car? – Thang Vu looked around and asked.
- I took it to the dealership for maintenance. The day before, Tan Vinh was driving and crashed into the back of my car. However, Thanh Tra still defended her husband. She told me that I parked in the wrong place.
- Then let me take you home, anyway, I'm free now.
After paying and receiving two portions of food from the owner of the restaurant, Thanh Phong followed Thang Vu to the car and sat in the back seat.
The car was running when there was a traffic jam, and the lecturer suddenly noticed a stack of re-examination records left on the back of the back seat.
While Thang Vu was concentrating on observing the crowd, Thanh Phong immediately pulled it out to see.
The words in front of him made him dumbfounded. His hands trembled and his mouth stammered until he could speak.
- You have multiple sclerosis?
Thang Vu looked up at the rearview mirror and clicked his tongue because of his carelessness.
Today he doesn't know which star has shined on him that made him so unlucky.
Initially, Nha Tien knew he was sick, came to see him and cried and now he has been discovered by Thanh Phong.
- Right.
- Since when?
- It's been a while, but I just discovered it two years ago.
- Don't tell me that you broke up with Thi San because of this reason. - Thanh Phong's voice trembled.
- Right. I apologize for not being able to say it. You and Ngoc Vy also don't worry about Thi San. She lives a very good life.
Thang Vu stopped by the roadside and gave Thanh Phong a stack of pictures that Matthew took.
He also advised his friend to let things rest in the past, and not to contact Matthew to meet Thi San because she went through a very difficult time to be able to forget him and live happily.
The car continued to accelerate, towards the expensive land.
Only when the license plate disappeared, did Thanh Phong enter the house, carry rice upstairs for Ngoc Vy and then go to the practice room, pour wine, and drink alone.
Ngoc Vy thought he would play some songs out of habit and then eat later, so she ate first because she was too hungry and couldn't wait.
After waiting for a long time but he did not return, she went to look for him.
She panicked a little when she saw him sitting by the window, holding an empty bottle of wine.
His gaze drifted out to the pitch-black sky that was pouring rain and his thin shoulders shook with each sob.
- Hey, are you okay? - She gently placed her hand on his shoulder and asked softly.
- Ngoc Vy, I am a bad friend, Thang Vu, he... he is very pitiful.
Ngoc Vy did not understand what her husband was trying to say, but she patiently held his head and patted him so he could calm down.
Could it be that he is sad because Thang Vu transferred the company to Nha Tien's father?
- He has multiple sclerosis. In the future, that disease will greatly affect his playing the piano and his daily activities. When I blamed and was angry at him, he was alone in a sterile room to perform an autologous blood transfusion.
Ngoc Vy is a sharp and intelligent person. So, even though Thanh Phong only said a few sentences and burst into tears, she also vaguely guessed the reason why Thang Vu abandoned Thi San.
He loves Thi San so much, how can he let go of her hand just because of "not getting along"?
It was because he loved Thi San so much that he pushed her out of his life.
Matching time is the clearest proof.
- Thi San lived a very good life. She has completed her piano training course under Matthew's guidance and is learning the violin. I saw her happily taking pictures with a man.
Thanh Phong is like a child when he drinks alcohol, after saying a few sentences, he will cry again.
Ngoc Vy's tears also fell on his head.
She understands what it feels like when a person sees the person they love laughing with another person and loving others because she has experienced it.
She regretted that it was not until this moment that she stopped being angry with Thang Vu.
