Chapter 19 — Great Lady Fake Weakness

Great. After pretending for so long, I finally succeeded. Although the weakness that people understand is slightly different from what my father wrote in his notebook, the result is the same. No one dares to poke me. No one dares to mess with the Bui family. One day, my father came to Bui's house for dinner and saw me leaning on the sofa while Bui Do peeled tangerines for me to eat. He was extremely comforting: "Daughter, you are now looking more and more like a rich wife." I was just about to answer humbly when Bui Do gave me a tangerine segment and leisurely said: "Yes, this morning I just helped Bui Thi successfully negotiate a purchase deal, the president of the other side cried while signing." My father fell silent. I bit into the tangerine, pretending not to hear. Bui Do added: "This afternoon I also went to the security company to practice for two hours." My father looked at me. I said: "Just exercise after meals." My father hugged his chest: "Where is my notebook?" I pointed towards the study room: "The table legs have been placed." That "Survival Handbook for Married Married Families" finally worked. Although it wasn't to teach me how to pretend to be weak, it was because the Bui family had a desk that I had cracked that kept leaking. I put that notebook in and just printed it. After hearing this, Bui Do laughed for a long time. I asked him: "Do you think I don't look like the wife in your imagination?" He held my hand, his fingertips gently rubbing over the scar on my wrist bone. “I can't imagine anyone better than you.” I was slightly startled. The sunlight outside the window shined in, landing on the corners of his eyes and eyebrows. I suddenly felt that pretending to be weak could stop here. Either way, someone who really likes you won't just like your pretense. He will like when you wear a white dress and bow your head pretending to cry, and will also like when you wear black and carry an iron tube to punish Cang Nam. I will like the look of you drinking tea in small sips, and will also give you a plate of chicken wings. It will not be exposed when you try to play the white lotus. I will also stand by your side when you decide to take off your mask and stop acting. I leaned on his shoulder and softly called: "Bui Do."

“Hmm?”

“From now on, I won't pretend anymore.”

He smiled softly: "Okay." I thought about it, then said: "But when you go out, just pretend a little." He asked: “Why?” I said seriously: "Do this so that when people are afraid of you, they will look more polite." Bui Do bowed his head and kissed my forehead: "Madam Bui is right." Outside the door, the butler knocked on the door and entered, respectfully asking: "Madam, there are a few ladies asking you to have tea this afternoon. Should I refuse?" I sat up straight and smiled gently: "I won't refuse." The butler nodded. I added: "Tell the kitchen to prepare some fruit cake, not too little." The butler immediately understood: "Prepare about three kilos, ma'am?" I nodded with satisfaction: "You understand." Bui Do sitting next to him chuckled softly. I glared at him. He raised his hands in surrender. At three o'clock in the afternoon, I wore a light-colored long dress that Mrs. Bui had just bought for me, pearl earrings, and sat in the flower hall waiting for guests. The sun is beautiful and the tea is fragrant. I bowed my head and took a sip of tea, feeling very gentle today. That Scar passed by, saw me like that, and was so moved that her eyes turned red: "Eldest Miss, you really look like a weak and fragile young lady right now." I was very pleased: "See?" A Buddha is next to him seriously added: “It's just that this table looks a bit dangerous.” I glanced at the table. Then gently retract your hand. Three minutes later, the guest arrived. As soon as the guest sat down, he smiled and said: "Mrs. Bui looks so gentle and gentle. The rumors outside are really exaggerated, and you dare to say that you used to be the Little King of Port Nam." I closed my eyes and smiled softly: "It's all a misunderstanding." The opponent breathed a sigh of relief.
