Chapter 29
Chapter 29 — After Divorce, She Made The Whole River City Bow Its Heads
Occasions like these cannot be avoided. But Lam Van didn't care. True letting go is never intentionally avoided, but rather, even if we meet again, we will just feel normal like everyone else. In the VIP rest area behind the scenes, several organizers were surrounding her discussing the project, their attitude was so considerate that it was almost flattering.
"Mr. Lam, how do you evaluate the upcoming new consumer segment?"
“General Lam, are foreign investment funds preparing to enter the field in sync?”
"Mr. Lam, later at the dinner party, can I have the honor of sitting at the main table?"
Lam Van responded one by one, her expression calm. In another corner, as soon as Co Tram Chu entered the rest area, she saw everyone surrounding her like the moon and stars giving way. She wore a delicately tailored moss green suit, her hair was loose around her shoulders, her temperament was cool, and her every move exuded a radiance that made it impossible to ignore. He suddenly remembered a party of the Co family three years ago. That day, Lam Van wore the simplest white dress, quietly standing in a corner, no one started talking, no one saw. And now, all eyes were chasing her. This is her original appearance. Co Tram Chu stood not far away, not stepping forward to disturb him. It wasn't until Lam Van finished talking and turned around to the balcony to get some fresh air that he followed from afar. The night wind blew on my face, the city lights spread across the river in the distance. Lam Van heard footsteps behind her and turned to look. Seeing that it was him, her expression didn't change at all: "Mr. Gu." Co Tram Chu stopped two steps away from her: "Congratulations, tonight's speech is great."
“Thank you.”
A very normal greeting. It's like two old people who once knew each other, now there's only a little bit of superficial interaction left. After a moment of silence, Co Tram Chu suddenly spoke: "Co is stable."
“I know.” Lam Van looked at the night scene in the distance, her voice calm, "Congratulations."
“I didn't come to ask for your compliments.” He said, "I just want to tell you that I have already resolved the matter of the Co family myself."
This statement carries a very slight bit of stubbornness. Like trying to prove something. Lam Van tilted her head to look at him and suddenly understood. I'm trying to tell her — I'm no longer using your love as a bargaining chip. So it's really much better than before. She rarely said sarcasm, just blandly replied: "That's good." Co Tram Chu looked at her, his eyes very deep. After a long time, he spoke: "Lam Van."
“Yes?”
“If I had learned these things sooner… would the outcome have been different?”
The wind blew her skirt. Lam Van was silent for two seconds, smiling slightly.
“Yes.”
A ray of light seemed to flash in Co Tram Chu's eyes. But in the next second, she calmly added the following half sentence:
"Unfortunately in this world, there is no 'what if'."
* Chapter 14: To Thanh Nhan finds her own way to die for the last time After Co's crisis temporarily subsided, the wind in Giang Thanh silently turned again. Everyone thought that Co Tram Chu would fall completely because of this storm, but they did not expect that he would stubbornly use the strength of one person to save the situation. Although it suffered heavy losses, at least it did not collapse. So in the upper class, people began to exclaim:
“This man, Co Tram Chu, Truly cruel enough, also good enough to resist."
“If it weren't for being blind in love, he would still be Co Tram Chu.”
“The most interesting thing now is — he is finally starting to wake up, but Lam Van is already far away.”
This statement has almost become a common opinion of everyone. And just when it was difficult for Co Tram Chu to get Co Thi back on track, To Thanh Nhan - who had originally gone abroad - suddenly returned.
