Chapter 6
Chapter 6 — Arrested on the night of the big wedding, I was reborn and killed him like crazy
After that, I turned around and headed towards Tham Tri Vi's yard. As soon as he arrived at the front gate, he saw Tam Tri Vi personally come out to welcome him. Today she wore a light pink dress, making her small face look even more weak and pitiful. Seeing me, she immediately hugged my arm intimately.
“Eldest sister, you're finally here. I've been waiting impatiently.”
Her voice is so sweet that it makes listeners sick. I laughed coldly in my heart, but my face showed no expression at all.
"My sister called me here late at night, what's going on?"
“Oh my gosh, big sister, look at this.”
She pulled me into the room and pointed to a pile of jewels and precious gems placed on the table.
"This is something my mother specially prepared for you. She said it would be used later when you get married."
"It doesn't make sense for me to watch it alone, so I thought I would invite my eldest sister to come help me take a look."
She picked up a butterfly brooch and held it to my head to try.
“Look, sister, is this beautiful?”
The butterfly wings on that brooch, encrusted with tiny gems, sparkled under the candlelight. I looked into the bronze mirror and saw her seemingly innocent smiling face. Inside is a piece of coldness. In my previous life, it was this brooch... When I was taken away, it fell to the ground. Becoming another "proof" of our "loss of integrity". I calmly reached out and pushed her hand away.
“My good things, keep them yourself.”
"Tomorrow I'm getting married, wearing these... is not according to the rules."
The smile on Tham Tri Vi's face stiffened for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.
“It's my sister who's not thinking carefully.”
Her eyes turned around and she quickly came up with a new idea.
“Eldest sister, I'm bored sitting all night, how about we go to the back garden for a bit?”
“I heard that the cinnamon flowers there are all blooming and they are very fragrant.”
I looked at her clumsy performance and almost laughed out loud.
"Okay."
I responded cheerfully. A glint of joy flashed in Tham Tri Vi's eyes, and he immediately pulled my hand to go out. She was even so "thoughtful" that she didn't bring any maids with her. The two of us, one in front and one behind, walked on the stone path leading to the back garden. The moonlight stretches our shadows into two long streaks. The closer we get to fake mountain, the more excited we feel Tham Tri Vi's footsteps become. Her breathing gradually became more rapid. She must be thinking... Just a little longer, she will be able to remove the thorn in her eye that is me. Just a little longer, the position of crown prince concubine of Vinh An palace... will belong to her. It's... pitiful, even more sad. Right when we came to the turning point of the fake mountain. The incident suddenly happened. In the small forest nearby, seven or eight masked men suddenly rushed out. They held steel swords in their hands, looking fierce and murderous. Tham Tri Vi "just in time" let out a terrified scream and hid behind me.
"Ah! There are assassins!"
She held my arm tightly, her body trembling like a rice sifter. Performing this skill... if I don't go to opera, it would be a pity. The man in black was the leader, carrying a knife and approaching we step by step. His eyes were precisely locked on me.
“Grab the eldest lady of the Tham family and take her away, don't hurt her!”
The dialogue... was exactly the same as in the previous life, without a single mistake. I looked at them, without a trace of fear in my eyes. Right at that moment, the man in black rushed in front of me, reaching out to grab me. I suddenly turned towards his back and shouted loudly.
“This is the moment, strike!”
The black man was stunned. Haven't had time to react yet. Behind the fake mountain, Butler Vuong led more than a dozen guards, holding sticks in his hands, rushing in like a tide!
“Protect the young lady!”
Butler Vuong shouted loudly, and the guards immediately fought with the black-clothed group into a chaotic group. This group of men in black obviously did not expect that there would be an ambush here, so they were immediately beaten and caught unawares. I grabbed the panicked Tham Tri Vi and quickly retreated towards a safe area. She looked at the chaotic scene before her eyes and was completely stunned.
“Eldest sister… what… what is this?”
There was a choking tone in her voice, not sure if it was because of fear, or because her plan had been exposed and was in a hurry. I looked at her coldly.
“Sister, don't you want to watch a play?”
“Now… the beautiful drama has just begun.”
The reinforcements were numerous and strong, and had been prepared in advance. Those men in black quickly fell into a losing position. Two of them wanted to run away, but Butler Vuong led someone to block their escape. The leader saw that the situation was not good, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes. He pretended to launch a move, but suddenly rushed towards me and Tham Tri Vi! His target... is me!
