Chapter 7 — Don't Wait For Someone Who Doesn't Choose You

Pho Than and Duong Niem Nhat no longer came to bother me, but Luc Trach Xuyen, on the contrary, personally brought me food twice a day. You must know that the time of a big boss like him is extremely valuable. Every second and every minute wasted on me is pure gold and silver lost. Looking at Luc Trach Xuyen's handsome face, always smiling gently, I couldn't help but shiver. Even though I was offered a high salary by him, in the end I'm just an employee. Is it necessary for Luc Trach Xuyen to treat me so well? Could it be that Luc Thi... cooperates in cross-border human trafficking with certain criminals from Myanmar or Cambodia? My heart became more and more uneasy and uneasy. But fortunately, I soon learned why. Luc Trach Xuyen, is considering me a gun to use to kill people. 8 Less than a week after I recovered. Luc Trach Xuyen dragged me to attend a charity party with him. Before that, Luc Trach Xuyen's female companion was always secretary Linda. Looking at Linda's resentful eyes along with the gossiping and blaming eyes of everyone from top to bottom in the company, I got goosebumps, my instinct told me to refuse. But Luc Trach Xuyen insisted on taking me to a high-end designer store to order evening gowns, and said mysteriously:

“When it's time to go to the party, you'll know why it has to be you.”

A bad premonition immediately appeared. Sure enough, as soon as I entered the banquet hall, I saw the two most nauseating figures in the world. Duong Niem Nhat was holding Pho Than's arm tightly, smiling like a flower as he raised glasses and offered wine everywhere. A partner director who had just returned from abroad asked him:

“Why didn't Director Khuong come with you this time?”

Pho Than smiled blandly: "She voluntarily quit her job, she has already quit. This is Duong Niem Nhat, the new director who took over the position of Khuong Thu Dao."

“This…”

The director's face was a bit unsightly. He looked at Duong Niem Nhat next to Pho Than as if he wanted to stop talking, but in the end he still said nothing. In the past, I was able to climb to this position, become Pho Than's right-hand man, become Director Khuong and receive constant praise from many partners, not based on my relationship with him. That's thanks to me taking step by step steadily on my own, thanks to the EQ at the drinking table exchanged for each glass of wine, thanks to the sleepless nights spent plowing through documents. Those directors of course also respect me somewhat. To achieve that position, it took me even three years. As for Duong Niem Nhat, it only took four months, the probationary period has not yet passed. I shook my head, feeling so sad inside. Not feeling sorry for myself, but for the Pho Thi company I once devoted all my efforts to. It's strange that with this haphazard promotion, the company doesn't go downhill.

“Thu Dao!” Duong Niem Nhat turned around to see me, excitedly pulled Pho Than and ran towards me.

In a crowded party, there are all famous characters. I couldn't avoid it in time, so I patiently greeted:

"Hello Deputy General, hello Director Duong."

Duong Niem Nhat's smile stiffened on his face, his expression a bit hurt: "Thu Dao, why do you call us that? You left on your own for so long, do you still blame us?" Why didn't I discover it before? Duong Niem Nhat's acting skills are good enough to act in Hollywood movies. It was clear that he was feeling proud inside, but on the outside he didn't show any flaws.

"I don't dare blame you two, this party is commercial after all, what's the problem with me calling you by my position?"

Pho Than's eyes moved slightly. Instinctively, he withdrew his arm from Duong Niem Nhat's hug and looked at me with deep eyes:

“No problem.”
