Chapter 7 — At My Boyfriend's Birthday Party, Just Because My Dad Said "Carrying Cement", He Ran Away In The Night

I thought it was dad. But when looking at the screen. Another strange phone number. Hesitate for a few seconds. I still listen. On the other end of the line came a low, cold but familiar male voice.

"Tan Dieu."

I was stunned. Fiance... The dragon can see my head but not my tail? People have heard that they study abroad all year round in some cutting-edge technology. Maybe we can't meet once a year?

"Tan Dieu?"

I'm not sure, so I repeat that name softly. Try to search your mind for memories related to this person. It seems that when my grandfather was still alive... He had betrothed me since I was a child to a grandson from an extended family. That family's name is Qin. The relationship with my family is extremely close. I heard that boy is a few years older than me. Since childhood, he has been a genius. At the age of 10, he was recruited directly into the youth program of a leading foreign university. After that, he continued to develop his career abroad. He and I only met a few times when we were kids. The impression has long faded. If you hadn't called today... Maybe I'd almost forgotten that such a person existed in the world.

"Why are you..."

"I'm staying at De Hao Hotel."

Tan Dieu's voice did not reveal any emotions.

"I just saw it all."

My heart immediately jumped. Have you seen it all? Seeing the whole process of me tearing my ex-boyfriend's face off? That's a bit embarrassing. In front of my nominal fiance. Performing such a landslide drama... It really isn't considered very elegant. I coughed twice. Trying to save the last bit of image.

"Let me laugh."

The voice on the other side remained calm.

"I see you did very well."

I was a bit surprised.

"Dealing with that kind of person..."

"Should do that."

He paused for a moment and then added:

"But next time you can hit straight."

"There's no need to talk much to him."

This fiance... Isn't it a bit violent?

"Where are you?"

"I'll come pick you up."

I report my current location. Less than five minutes later. A black Maybach quietly stopped next to my Panamera. The car window slowly lowered. Revealing a face so beautiful that it makes others breathless. Are you looking for eyes? The bridge of the nose is high and straight. Thin lips pursed slightly into cold lines. Skin so white it almost glows. It is the cold white type of people who work in the laboratory all year round, with very little exposure to sunlight. The perfectly tailored black suit further accentuates his cool, noble temperament. Like a delicately sculpted jade statue. And distant. That is Tan Dieu. Compared to the boy in my vague memories of the past... More than a thousand times more handsome. He is also looking at me. His eyes stayed on my face for a few seconds. Then slowly move down to the Panamera below. Eyebrows slightly furrowed. Almost unrecognizable.

"Why buy this type of car?"

I was bewildered.

"Is this car not good?"

"Too ostentatious."

He answered briefly.

"And not safe."

He pushed the car door open and got out. Long straight legs approached me.

"Get off the bus."

"Huh? What to do?"

"I'll take you home."

His tone did not allow for any refusal. Carrying the natural feeling of oppression of someone who is used to standing in a high position. Don't understand why. I really listened again. Obediently opened the door and stepped down from the car Panamera. Tan Dieu very naturally took the car keys from my hand. Then give it to the assistant in the black suit behind.

"Deal with it."

"Yes, General Tan."

The assistant immediately bowed his head to receive the order. And I stood there stunned. Looked at the newly purchased Panamera for less than an hour. A thought suddenly appeared in my head. This fiance... Looks like he's a lot richer than I thought. The assistant respectfully accepted the key. Then I drove the Panamera that I had just received without having time to warm the seats. One thread disappeared. I widened my eyes at the scene before me.

"Wait!"

"That's the car I just bought!"

"I know."

Tan Dieu calmly opened the backseat door of the Maybach. Signaled me to get in the car.

"Tomorrow I'll have my assistant give you a new one."

"Armored version."

"Bulletproof."

But there's really no need. I'm not prepared to go to war. In a hazy, hazy state. I still sit in the Maybach. The space inside is extremely spacious. Luxurious but discreet design. There was a faint scent of cedar in the air. Exactly like the fragrance on Tan Dieu's body. He also sat in the car. Close the door. Completely isolates outside noise. The atmosphere immediately became quiet. I'm a bit confused. Don't know what to say. After all. The two of us are almost strangers. In the end, it was still him who spoke first.

"It seems you don't like me very much."

The voice was very calm. Doesn't sound happy or sad. I was startled. Hastily waved his hand.

"No way."

"It's just..."

"I'm just a little surprised."

"Surprised because I returned home."

"Or surprised because I came to find you?"

I answered honestly. Tan Dieu softly said "yes". Then he tilted his head and looked at me. His eyes are very deep. Like two cold stars in the middle of a winter night. It feels like any secret cannot be hidden under those eyes. Being looked at like that by him. My heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"Khuong Hoa."

Suddenly he called my name.

"I want to annul the marriage."

I immediately raised my head. Looking at him blankly. Did I hear it wrong? He wasted his time returning home. Find it everywhere. Just to tell me this? The script seems to be wrong. According to common sense, it wasn't him that made me fall in love as soon as I met him. Then begins the journey of the tyrannical CEO pursuing his wife? Why did you just show up and demand an annulment?
