Chapter 63: Make friend

Hoang Tuan turns his head back.

That was Hoang Lan's voice.

He breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a sense of relaxation in his heart.

"Tien Nga doesn't know what's going on. She's still sitting there. I'll go check it out."

He said to Hoang Lan, but the other person didn't move after hearing what he said.

Hoang Tuan stood up and walked towards Hoang Lan, feeling a bit annoyed.

What's going on today? Everyone seems so sluggish!

As he approached, he gradually saw the figure standing in front of him.

It was indeed Hoang Lan, but why...

Why does her expression look like this?

It's as if anger and suspicion are mixed together, and her eyes are so frightening, and the features on her face are twisted, making her look eerie, with her facial features contorted into a strange arrangement.

She ignored Hoang Tuan and looked straight at Tran Tien Nga behind him.

Hoang Tuan swallowed nervously.

"Hoang Lan, what's wrong with you..."

Before he could finish speaking, his mind became confused, as if he was stabbed by a sharp needle in his head.

His body couldn't stand steady and fell to the ground.

As he lay down, the scene in front of him became darker, and he could only vaguely see Hoang Lan walking towards Tran Tien Nga in the corner with a strange bracelet in her hand.

Finally, his consciousness completely disappeared.

Sinking into darkness...

...

...

With a bright light shining on his face, Hoang Tuan slowly opened his eyes.

"Why do I feel so dizzy..."

He rubbed his forehead with his hand, and when he saw the wall clock, it was already half-past ten. He quickly got up from the bed.

It's already half-past ten, and mom hasn't called me yet!

Being late and getting scolded again.

Actually...

When Hoang Tuan thought about this, his mother's voice came from outside the bedroom, mixed with a little anger.

"Hoang Tuan, you still haven't woken up? Do you want me to come in and drag you out of bed?"

"I'm up, I'm getting dressed!"

He yelled back at the door while putting on his clothes.

When he opened the door to go out, everyone was sitting around the fire watching TV.

There was a bowl of noodles on the kitchen counter as usual. After Hoang Tuan quickly washed the bowl, he went over, took the bowl of noodles, and started eating.

The noodles were not clumped together; it seemed like everyone had woken up late today.

Hoang Tuan thought.

He felt that he might not get scolded today.

Anyway, everyone makes mistakes, and maybe his mother's anger would be diluted to some extent...

"But... why is my head hurting so much?"

Hoang Tuan felt puzzled.

Because of what happened yesterday.

He only remembered that after returning the comic book, the lost girl was sent to her biological parents' house by his mother.

As soon as he entered the house, his mother angrily urged him to go to bed early.

The comic book was confiscated, so he couldn't stay up late to read or do anything.

"Maybe I slept with my head too high?"

"Or did I catch a slight cold because the blanket wasn't covering properly?"

Hoang Tuan shook his head while eating noodles, thinking that he would have to find some headache medicine in the cabinet after finishing his meal.

Hoang Lan and Tran Tien Nga had a very close relationship.

Their relationship was good now, sitting together on the sofa, watching TV and chatting.

Their father was sitting by the fire, talking to their mother about work.

Maybe their father is about to go on a business trip again.

Recently, the company has put forward a marketing strategy that requires him to travel to different places and connect with various branches.

As he talked.

There was no reaction on his mother's face.

She just continued to pick up her cardigan and occasionally nodded.

Obviously, this situation had happened many times before, and she had nothing more to say...

In Hoang Tuan's memory.

His family was very ordinary.

There were no painful pasts, and no unforgettable romantic memories...

No one in the family had a serious illness.

If there was any.

It was just trivial things...

His father's job was marketing management, and he needed to travel to survey and connect with various branches, which often made him away from home for long periods.

At first, his mother used to complain.

Urging his father to quit his current job.

His mother said that she only wanted a simple and light life; she didn't want a wealthy and luxurious life. All she wanted was her family by her side.

But his father refused to quit his job...

He thought that the family's financial situation was not very good. Currently, Hoang Tuan and Hoang Lan were both in high school and would soon go to college.

It would certainly cost a lot of money.

He didn't want to have to scrimp and save when he needed money. That's why there were many cold wars between the two of them in the past.

As time went by.

It had gotten better...

His mother probably guessed it or for some reason didn't ask too much about his father's frequent business trips. She just endured it quietly.

Whenever she came home for a while after a business trip, the meals at home would become more abundant...

Hoang Lan and Hoang Tuan.

They had completely opposite personalities.

At school.

As a younger sister, Hoang Lan was very straightforward, carefree, and did whatever she wanted.

As an older brother, Hoang Tuan was genuinely bored.

He could be described as introverted, almost without any friends in school. His only joy was relying on the pirated comics in the store near the school for entertainment.

Last year.

He was also reported by Ho Thanh Doan to the teacher because he wrote a love letter to her. To make some other students who liked Ho Thanh Doan happy, Ho Thanh Doan turned him into a target and always bullied him.

This might be the family's structure.

Simple and straightforward.

Occasionally a little happiness in these repetitive days...

...

After finishing the noodles.

Hoang Tuan put the bowl back in the kitchen.

Just as he was wiping his mouth and stepping out of the kitchen, there was a knocking sound at the door.

Knock, knock, knock, knock!

"Who is it?"

He called out through the door.

"I've come to look for someone. Can I have a chat for a bit?"

A man's voice came from behind the door.

Hoang Tuan felt the voice sounded familiar, but for a moment, he couldn't remember who it was.

He hesitated, walked to the door, and opened it.

A smiling face appeared in his view, and Hoang Tuan couldn't help but take a step back.

"Who are you?"

His younger sister heard the sound.

Curiously, she poked her head out of the door...

Seeing the man in front of them, Hoang Tuan never thought that the guy who was bleeding after him last night would find their house.

What is he doing at my house?

Hoang Tuan had a bad premonition and looked at the man's hand, slightly worried if he was holding a knife or something.

Both hands of the man were empty.

He seemed like an ordinary visitor, standing in front of the door with a smile on his face.

"I'm here to look for you. Can I talk to you for a while?"

Hoang Tuan's body tensed, fearing that Dương Khánh Vĩ might do something.

He swallowed nervously and stared at the man in front of him seriously.

But Dương Khánh Vĩ didn't do anything.

He adjusted his suit, then bowed slightly, reached out to shake hands with Hoang Tuan, and said, "I came here to be friends with you..."
