“This outfit is equally beautiful, my Lady Co.” I took the dress and changed it right in front of him. There isn't any design, it's simple to the point of being bland, but this is no longer important. Stepping out of the room, the sunlight outside the island was bright. Outside the banquet hall is a giant swimming pool. Co Dinh Tham's friends have already arrived and are gathering to smoke drugs. Seeing me wearing the spare tuxedo, those people exchanged glances. "This sister-in-law is really elegant in this outfit, much more beautiful than those lace things." Mockery filled their words, Co Dinh Tham slightly frowned, glanced at them. "Shut your mouth, talk nonsense again and go home." Everyone fell silent, but their eyes were still full of mockery. At this moment, the sound of high heels rang out, and Liu Si Tu walked over wearing a red dress. She held a glass of champagne and smiled brightly at Co Dinh Tham. "Brother Tham, do you think I look beautiful in this outfit today?" "Okay." Co Dinh Tham nodded lightly. Luu Tu Tu turned his head, his eyes aimed straight at me. Only then did I notice that on her curly hair, she was wearing an exquisite ancient crown. It was a family heirloom left by my grandmother. I have imagined countless times that I would wear it on my wedding day, as if to see that my mother was still watching me get married. For safety reasons, I locked it in the hotel room's safe, the password being known only to the two of us. I felt cold all over my body. "Who gave you permission to touch it?" I stared at the crown, my voice sharp. Liu Si Tu reached out his hand to hold the displaced crown. "Sister Tuyet Di, don't be so stingy, I just borrowed the team to help ease my addiction." "Take it down," I took a step forward, my eyes sharp. Luu Tu Tu took a step back in fear. "Brother Tham, look how fierce she is, I just borrowed it for a little bit, it won't damage her." She reached out and pulled Co Dinh Tham's sleeve, her eyes immediately turned red. Co Dinh Tham frowned slightly, blocking her behind, staring at me. "Tuyet Di, it's just right. It's just a crown, tomorrow I will return it to you intact, she can't stand being attacked." I looked at Co Dinh Tham's face, feeling extremely ridiculous. "I'll say it again, take it off and give it back to me." I didn't scream, I just calmly narrated. Luu Tu Tu hid behind him, the corner of his mouth curled up in a cold smile. She suddenly let go of Co Dinh Tham, took two steps back, and stood right at the edge of the pool. "Okay, I'll give it back to you, don't force me, I already see that life has no meaning..." As she said, she waved her hand to yank the crown off her head, her movements were extremely rough. "Tu Tu, don't make a mess," Co Dinh Tham's face changed, he reached out to grab her. But Liu Si Tu missed. feet. "Ah!" With a shrill scream, she dragged the crown and fell into the deep water, splashing water. "Tu Tu!" Co Dinh Tham's face immediately darkened, he didn't even take off his vest and rushed straight into the water. Co Dinh Tham's friends immediately whispered. "Ha Tuyet Di, are you crazy? What's wrong with Tu Tu? You're a murderer!" I stood on the shore, watching Co Dinh Tham trying to lift Liu Tu Tu underwater. Watching my mother's remains flash a dim light at the bottom of the lake, finally sinking into the drainage hole. There was a sharp pain in the heart, making it difficult to breathe. Co Dinh Tham carried a soaked Liu Si Tu to shore, and someone immediately brought him a towel. Co Dinh Tham took the towel, left Luu Tu Tu who was trembling, and walked in front of me. He frowned and covered my shoulder, which was being bitten by the sea breeze.
