"Recently, there have been many rumors related to what happened during my work with a female employee in the company, making me feel it is time to say a few things to those who are interested.
I had done some things to show her that I cared and cared for her. These actions did not cross the ethical boundaries between people and were within the specific context. But what I did not anticipate was that I had unintentionally confused, annoyed, and possibly hurt her.
Today, I also want to apologize to my colleagues, friends, close partners, and Nha Nam book lovers for being bothered by many false rumors online about the above story. In the end, I still believe in the positive side of everything that has happened. I consider this a lesson to improve myself."
