Chapter X



The dim sunlight had just shone on his face, Jiangxi painted a new lipstick from the chanel sitting in front of him, slightly red and pink, as if peach blossoms were in full bloom, as pure as spring. Ignore the problem, it's actually still winter. Thu Thu was somewhat stunned, he himself found it hard to understand why he was thinking about unrelated things, his ears were slightly buzzing, apparently Jiangxi only said: "Yellow Changning has returned."


He looked rather indifferent.


He wasn't driving, Jiangxi asked: "How about taking my car home?" Thu Thu shook his head: "No need, I will call the driver, I will be home today."


Since today is Saturday, I have scheduled today to go to Ky Nam Phuong's parents' house, the little things don't matter, the things have nothing to do with things, the, but I still remember it clearly. After Jiangxi left, she sat in the coffee shop, stunned for a long time, before pulling out her phone to call Ky Nam Phuong.


Ringing for a long time no one answered, he was about to hang up, he finally picked up: "Thursday!"


He breathed a little quickly, followed by panting, the phone signal was not good, just hearing a hissing sound, he could not help but ask: "What are you doing?"


“Hot water bath,” she looks take a deep breath, in a cheerful atmosphere: “What's wrong? Remember calling me?"


"Today is the first Saturday of the month, I told you that I'm going home for dinner." He patiently reminded her.


"Huh? He looked very surprised: "I forgot, I'm in Japan."


This guy!


Thu Thu was angry to death: "What kind of person are you? The things that have been decided, I don't even care, I finally did it!"


"OK, what are you angry about?" She said, "At any rate, I can't go straight home, or you can call my mom and say that I have an emergency and have to go on a business trip."


"Ji Nanfang, let's get a divorce."


There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, after a while he smiled: "What's wrong with you? My signal is not good, what you said last time, chocolate is not, I asked someone in Belgium to order it, it will arrive in 2 days."


"I'm serious." He felt tired, his music was low in the coffee shop, the French song loosened, the lyrics and rules were solid, he subconsciously wanted to distinguish what the lyrics sung, but he could not hear clearly. my own voice was clear, it seemed very tired: "Wait for me to come back, we'll keep talking."


He hangs up, the phone rings immediately, Ky Nam Phuong calls back, Kam Thu is tired and unwilling to accept, locking the phone.


She calls Ji's family, lying that she and Ky Nam Phuong are on a business trip, while her mother-in-law says nothing. Thu Thu did not want to go back to his mother's house, moreover did not want to go back to Ji Nam Phuong, and his last thought was to go back to the dorm.


He made a cup of hot tea for himself, standing on the balcony facing west, watching the sunset.


The sun is very big and round, the sun is orange, sandwiched between the cracks of the building, slowly descending, like a salty duck, Kam suddenly wants to eat white porridge, immediately wash the rice and cook it yourself. .


Kam Kam is not good at cooking, but in the kitchen there are still some simple kitchen utensils, pour rice into the rice cooker, add water, then press the button, and finally sit near the sink, and finally sit down, start to get confused again. The kitchen is very neat and clean, the company helps housewives twice a week to clean and sterilize, even a speck of dust on the kitchen table is lost, even the ceramic tiles on the walls are clean and bright. .


He actually worked very hard to learn to cook the porridge, using a pot of earth, boiling it with a small flame, and boiling the rice grains until it was perfectly cooked, melting in his mouth. But never had the chance to use it before, Dich Truong Ninh had never tasted the congee he cooked, they broke up.


So quickly, without time for anything, sometimes thinking back, he always felt, those days were like a dream, because it was so perfect, so like a dream, until the next day he woke up again, as if there was nothing.


Want to sleep, on the sidelines of the teeth it seems there is still the smell of porridge, even though it has been brushing your teeth. The furniture inside the house had not changed, it was still the same as when he first came to practice, his bed was very small, but very comfortable, so he sometimes came here to sleep. The fireplace was so warm, he curled up, and soon fell asleep.


Woken up by the phone, it was morning, he picked up the phone, saw that it was Ky Nam Phuong, and could not help but ask: "What do you want to do again?"


“Shu Shou, are you not home? Where are you?"


"I'm in the dorm."


She laughed: "I guess you're in the dorm, did you receive the flowers I gave you?"


"Which flower?"


"The flower shop hasn't delivered it yet?" He was a little surprised: "You called them to urge them!"


As soon as the doorbell rang, she thought it must be the one delivering the flowers: "Wait a minute, someone pressed the doorbell." He had not hung up the phone, picked up his coat quickly, and went out to look at the screen at the door, it was indeed a huge bouquet of tulips that the face of the flower bearer was also covered.


He opens the door to prepare to sign, then tells Ky Nam Phuong by phone: "The flower has arrived."


"I know." The bouquet was lowered, revealing his smiling face: "Surprised yet?"


Thu Thu was neither surprised nor pleased, only asking: "Why did you come back?"


“Did I say it? You fool too, how could my mother believe we were both on a business trip? The old lady thought that I did something bad to offend you, so she taught me on the phone and hurt me all night to rush back here."


"Ky Nam Phuong, I forgot to do my own homework, what do you count on to blame me for?"


He smiled and looked at her face up close: "Oh, really angry? Can you invite me to dinner? If you sleep until now, you may not have eaten, you should have lunch, or say your stomach hurts."


His only good point was tolerance, most of the time when he was angry, he laughed at him.


In fact, because he still considered him a child, he was lazy to accept it.


She was also very hungry: "Wait, I'll change my clothes."


She went to the room to change clothes, took off her coat, just opened the closet door, suddenly she hugged her waist, she followed him in, a hot kiss fell behind her ear, she said, he used his strength to move. I can't take it for a moment: "Kien Nam Phuong, what are you doing?"


She did not care, still meticulously kissed her ears, warm breath behind her neck, her hands were not right, the way the sticky nightgown began to feel, she was really angry: "Knight. Nam Phuong, can you be less crazy?" He turned his face to kiss her, he could only use the power to bite her lips: "I want to go eat, I'm hungry!"


He seemed to whisper, "I'm hungry too ..." Behind him was a closet door, he clamped it tightly, his arm's ability to move was zero, his breathing was breathless, the more he struggled the tighter he gripped, he kissed the deeper and deeper, the deeper he was, gradually sliding down to kiss her shoulder, she slowly felt confused, fortunately her legs could still move, so she kicked him hard: "Hey let go!"


The kick was very powerful, he did not move for a long time, he felt a little guilty, hurriedly saying: "You must be very tired when you get off the plane, you are very tired, or take a shower and get changed, what happens? by tomorrow? I continue. ” Seeing she did not reply, she hurriedly added: "Or you don't want to go home———ada room, right?"


He didn't move, for a moment a little worried, wasn't he angry?


After a long while, he finally relaxed his hands, calmly as if he had not said: "OK, let's go home and have dinner first, it's been a long time since I had dinner with my parents."


Previously, without calling to say, as a result, Diep Du Hang and Thinh Khai were not home. Aunt Tong smiled and said, "My father has been attending meetings for two days now, and my mother went to Switzerland a few days ago. Yes, you two are at home, let's eat, today Tianjin sent the crab, isn't Nam Phuong your favorite to eat this dish? There's also a silver fish with pickles, I'll have the chef make a hotpot for both of you."


"Don't be too complicated, aunt," Thu Thu instead sighed: "We just went there to eat."


Aunt Tong smiled understandingly: "What is on the other side, but on the other hand, the naive young people talking did not pay attention at all, last time when I said that in front of my mother, my mother scolded me. again."


Ky Nam Phuong was a little angry: "They're all gone, so it's a waste of money."


“What do you mean by saying these words? I want to call my mom and see how you're doing."


She smiled: "OK, now you are really a daughter-in-law, soft."


With such a clever mouth, he couldn't help but push it. Ky Nam Phuong called his brother-in-law, he was in the hospital impatiently spinning: "Mother has not come, the doctor said that the operation should be done immediately, the doctor said that the operation should be done, otherwise the danger to Duong Pho was not feared."


Ky Nam Phuong could only try his best to comfort him, thousands of kilometers away, no one could help. When she hung up the phone, KyNam just found it funny: "Usually, my brother-in-law is also very careful, today when I talk to him, my voice shakes."


"His wife is going to give birth, she's not even patient, so she's not a boy, is she?"


Ky Nam Phuong rarely saw Thu Thu this happy, and was also very happy: "We went to eat first, you haven't had breakfast, are you still hungry?"


I was very hungry, so I ate a lot, finally the waiter brought candy, could not eat anymore, he sat on the sofa holding his stomach and said: "Oh, this is tight."


Ky Nam Phuong sat down next to him, grabbed the remote control and turned on the TV, when he heard that, he glared at him and said: "Sleep, you sleep for half a day, you still eat, you still eat, you look like a real pig. ."


"You pig," he pulled the remote from his hand, "Watch my channel! Rockets meet Mavericks today.”


"What's so good about everyone fighting over the ball to put in the basket?"


“I like to watch!”


"Hmm, what's interesting, I like Rukawa."


Unexpectedly, he knew this as well. She was in elementary school right when Slam Dunk was on fire, she rewinded the anime and watched it many times, every time Rukawa appeared, she could not replicate the characters in the manga. Heart-shaped exploding eyes, cheering with cotton balls : “Rukawa! Iloveyou! Rukawa! Iloveyou!". Many years ago, like a basketball fan, when it came time to log on to a TV station to practice, he did not hesitate to choose the sports section without hesitation.


Unexpectedly, this brotherhood, although the married life of 3 years was unbelievable, but to become a brother, he still met very high standards.


In misfortune, there is also luck.


He rarely went home, rarely sat in the living room watching TV, in the end he searched around and could not find any channels, gloomily throwing away his remote, saying: "Kien Nam Phuong, who is not a fan, or we should go behind Let's go for a swim."


The Ji family has a swimming pool with a very stable temperature, 10 years ago this type of pool was quite rare, so when I was a kid, a group of kids used to come here to swim. Very crowded and also very pleasant, for Kam Kam, this place brings many happy childhood memories. But he said: "If you want to swim, you go swimming alone, I'm not going."


When he was young, he almost drowned, so he never dared to swim alone, had to be accompanied by someone to dare to enter the water. Ben shook his hand: "Let's go, brother, rarely my parents are not at home, my parents are too embarrassed to use the pool."


His face became unsightly for a reason: "I'm not going, I want to take a bath."


He actually got off the plane without changing his clothes, he said: "Or you can stay here and wait for me, I'll take a shower and we'll go."


"You're Shen Shou!" He suddenly became angry: "You didn't let me touch you, but wherever you went to attack me, what did you have in the end?"


He froze, seemingly completely unaware that he was going to say this.


The matter between him and him had been around for a long time, there was only smoke when there was fire, and he had no shortage of women.


He just remembered that he felt cold sweat all over his back, he knew from his honeymoon that he could force himself to endure things, but just couldn't stand this, he said, even if it was physiologically or psychologically, the two seemed to be the same, though it had happened once before, but back then he was so drunk that he lost consciousness, she said, can't remember anything, just record a lot of pain. . But their wedding night was obviously the worst, Ky Nam Phuong just touched her, she was so nervous that she was shaking, at first she wanted to be jealous, but in the end she was so nauseous that she couldn't. to not throw himself into the toilet and throw up, he was forced to let go.


The next day, the two set off for their honeymoon, the destination being Tahiti resort - the top honeymoon destination - French Polynesia, as jade inlaid between the South Pacific Ocean and the sea, silvery green sand, and the sea, coconut shade like fairyland.


The whole day passed very casually, Ky Nam Phuong taught him to dive, taught him to sail. The two sat side by side in a thatched hut comfortably eating tropical fruits, the floor made of transparent glass that could see the sea, countless small fish swimming back and forth. The two even ride bicycles to drink coconut water, on an island like paradise between them really feels like a honeymoon.


At night it seemed like hell again, he tried to make her feel good, he also tried to accept the experiment, but the result forever made them both in a dilemma.


The honeymoon had failed miserably, the marriage had failed of course, the secret she had experienced from beginning to end seemed to be an instinctive resistance to this, she patiently tried until almost a year, the secret she had experienced from beginning to end seemed to be an instinctive resistance to this, from the initial efforts gradually turned into boredom, anger, cold war.between the two, his persistence ran out to the end, after which he finally did not go home, sometimes when he came home, sometimes when he came home, he also found an excuse to quarrel with her, angering her and leaving.


Or maybe she was too bored, she really rarely bothered him anymore, gradually more and more playing outside, more blatantly than before marriage. He randomly met her a few times outside, the scope was too small, there were only a few clubs or restaurants around. The first time they met was a bit awkward, then they got used to it, the two people seemed to have an implicit contract to deal with their parents. Diep Than Khoan finally learns that first, he is angry and can't wait to buy Ky Nam Phuong for the match, then he has a deep love to teach him to protect Kam Thu, but the two of them just turned away as usual. Performing the drama for the whole family to see, until finally Diep Than Khoan was so tired that no longer care, others did not want to do wasteful work.


Ky Nam Phuong also has great respect for her, never made it difficult for her before, only once made her go to clean up the final part, actually it was also unintentional, like a connecting episode in a TV series. At 8 p.m., a woman named Chu Phung Tu invited him to the cafe again.


He was much calmer than the other party, patiently listening to all, then with a smile on his face said to the gentle woman: "Miss Zhou, you said these things, you said these things, I'm sure this is all true actually, I'm also assuming you didn't fool me, you're really pregnant. However, there are many ways to solve this kind of problem in this world, I'm sure you can do it, you come to me to talk, I have nothing to give you except money. Operating costs and retraining, is 20 thousand enough ? Or 30 grand? That's not true, Ky Nam Phuong has always been very considerate, never let me find out about these kinds of things, so I don't know the market price well."


Chu Fengzi, on the contrary, was teary-eyed: "I love her, I want to have this baby."


He lifted his coffee cup indifferently and took a sip: "If you really love him, I advise you not to do that, because if you do this, it will only make him angry."


In fact, the young lady was very beautiful, when she smiled gracefully, she was very touching, her gestures were quite elegant, her appearance was not bad, let alone having the ability to come to her, as well as having courage. Seeing the young woman holding back tears, she said, "I don't want anything, even if I don't have a degree, I just want to have a baby."


As if his heart had just been punched in pain, Thu Shou even breathed a little too fast, his hands started shaking, knowing that he would lose control, put down the coffee cup, saying: "Miss Zhou, you will be able to make it even worse, what if He really didn't want anything more, he would secretly give birth to his own child, and definitely wouldn't make an appointment to meet with me. She already knew from the beginning that she was married, yet still had false hopes, she definitely knew the consequences of being with him. She always said she loved him, but loved someone so much, wouldn't count this profit or loss, or count how much she would love him back, let alone use the life of her baby. Forgive me frankly, You don't actually love her the way you think, you're just a self-delusional person, that's why you're satisfied, that's why you're looking for me. He opened his mouth to speak for love, but only for his own will! As for the baby in your stomach, I feel pity! Unfortunately, it was just a fetus, and he was used as a negotiating weight. If you have the guts and courage to face the wrath of Ky Nam Phuong, if you have the guts and courage to provoke the Ji Family In the Diep family, you can give birth to this child!"


Then he waved his sleeve and left.


Out of the cafe, he immediately called Ky Nam Phuong: "What's wrong with you? Such a woman who doesn't know how to go back and forth, you're still making fun of, you can't find a more reasonable person?"


He had no time to react for a moment: "Which woman?"


"That person is surnamed Chu."


He was very surprised: "Is he looking for you? Don't be angry, where are you? I'll leave now, you don't notice."


"You don't have to come here, I've called the driver to pick you up. Ky Nam Phuong, for the first time, I have to forgive you, if next time I still face a problem like this, don't blame me for being disrespectful!"


That night, he came home very early, on the contrary, without shame, only to honestly say to him: "I'm stuck by him, sorry, Kam, I guarantee there won't be any next time. This time, I'll handle it, you can be sure."


He only felt nausea, the kind of nausea that welled up in his heart, just disgust: "You didn't leave any harm behind."


He just laughed.


Of course, there were no consequences, nor did he hear anything about the other woman with the surname Chu, Ky Nam Phuong was so terrifying when angry, he had witnessed her courage, of course, for someone else. He said he could do it. Since then, no similar incidents have disturbed him. He followed the old habit of 'passing through a bush of hundreds of flowers, not even a single leaf stuck to its stem', both equally warm and not hot while continuing to play the play in front of the crowd. around, as if they could act all the time.
