Chapter 8 — At My Boyfriend's Birthday Party, Just Because My Dad Said "Carrying Cement", He Ran Away In The Night

It seemed he noticed the puzzled look on my face. The corners of Tan Dieu's lips curled slightly. A very small curvature. But enough to see that he was finding my reaction quite interesting.

"You seem surprised."

"I just felt it was a bit sudden."

"Not suddenly."

He withdrew his gaze. Lean back in the chair. Calm tone.

"This engagement was originally just a joke between the elders."

"No need to be too serious."

"These past years I've been abroad."

"I'm in the water."

"Everyone has their own life."

"There's no need to be bound by a marriage contract."

He stopped for a few seconds. Then continue.

"I can see it."

"You don't have feelings for me."

"I don't want to force anyone either."

I parted my lips. But for a moment I didn't know how to refute it. What you said is all true. I really don't have feelings for you. Even before today. I almost forgot his existence. This marriage contract to me is just something I can have, but I can't have it if I don't have it. But... I don't understand why. When he said with his own mouth that he wanted to cancel the marriage. A very small feeling of discomfort appeared in my heart. Like a toy I kept for many years. Normally it's rarely touched. But if suddenly someone else takes it away. You will still feel unhappy.

"So..."

"Did you specifically come here tonight just to talk about this?"

I asked sadly.

"It can also be considered that way."

He nodded.

"This time I return home, I will stay for a while."

"Find an occasion."

"Let's make an appointment with our parents to have a meal together."

"Then let's make this clear."

I replied once. But the mood got worse and worse. The atmosphere in the car once again fell into silence. I was bored looking at the light outside the window. My heart is filled with all kinds of emotions. Just dumped a scumbag boyfriend. Got divorced by my genius fiance again. What bad luck did I commit today?

"Ah yes."

Tan Dieu suddenly spoke up.

"The story of the Ha family."

"How are you going to handle it?"

I didn't expect you to ask this question. Stunned for a few seconds before answering:

"My dad said he would handle it."

"It's up to Uncle Khuong to handle it."

Tan Dieu looked at me. His eyes were extremely serious.

"You should have your own way of handling it."

"My treatment?"

"He made me suffer humiliation."

"Then you should pay it back tenfold."

"Hundredfold."

"Let him understand."

"I'm not someone he can offend."

His voice was very cold. Carry a strength that does not allow anyone to doubt.

"Business is like a battlefield."

"Be merciful to the enemy..."

"It's being cruel to yourself."

"I'll forgive him today."

"He can come back tomorrow."

"Even bit me back."

I looked at him. Suddenly realized. In some respects. He and my father are really similar. They are all the type of people who protect their family members to an unreasonable extent.

"What should I do?"

I humbly asked. Tan Dieu also really smiled. The smile is very faint. But it also makes the neon lights outside the window seem to lose their color.

"Very simple."

He slowly spit out each word.

"Snake fight."

"Must hit exactly seven inches."

"I still want to destroy someone..."

"Then you have to destroy what that person values most."

"For him to lose everything he was most proud of."

"Money."

"One at a time."

"Take it all away from him yourself."

"To He fell from the clouds straight into the mud."

"I can't raise my head for the rest of my life."

I rolled my eyes when I heard it. This Mr. Tan looks dignified and polite... Why are his methods so cruel? But... Somehow... I feel quite aroused. The Maybach quietly stopped in front of my villa gate. I said goodbye to Tan Dieu and got out of the car. He didn't leave right away. Not until I entered the house. He just rolled up the window. The black Maybach slowly blends into the night. I stood at the mysterious entrance. Watch as the car disappears. An indescribable feeling suddenly arose in my heart. Tan Dieu... Truly a very strange person. Obviously came to annul the marriage. But it taught me how to take revenge on my ex-boyfriend. It's clear that the whole person exudes the aura of "strangers don't come near". Yet sometimes he unconsciously reveals his domineering protection.

"My daughter is back!"

My mother walked out of the kitchen wearing an apron. On his face was a familiar gentle smile.

"Go wash your hands quickly."

"Mom made sweet and sour fried ribs, which is your favorite."

I go. Arms hugged her from behind.

"Did someone bully you when you went out?"

Mother sadly patted my head. I shook my head.

"No."

"It's just that I miss my mom."

On the dining table. My father was already sitting there. Drinking tea in one hand. One hand holding a tablet computer. Just saw me. He immediately put down the computer.
