Chapter 8
Chapter 8 — I tore up a 1.8 billion contract, my boss went crazy right at the celebration party
First time in many years. I proactively called her name. Hoarse voice.
“I need your help.”
The other end of the line immediately went silent. The joking disappeared completely. To Nhan understands me too well. She knows. If not pushed to the edge. I will never make this phone call. Her voice also became serious.
“What happened?”
I looked at the pale sunlight outside the window. Slowly say:
“Help me investigate someone.”
“Tran Van Ly.”
“General Director of Thien Vu Capital.”
“I want his entire file.”
“The more detail the better.”
“Social relations.”
“The deals he made.”
“Everything.”
I stopped for a second. His eyes gradually cooled down.
“Most important…”
“I want to know his weakness.”
“Whatever it is.”
“Just something that can hurt him.”
“I want to know.”
The other end of the line was silent again. This time it lasted longer. A while later. To Nhan just spoke up. But what she asked surprised me.
“Hua Tinh.”
“Were you so pressured by him that you had to find me?”
I don't answer. Because that's the answer. To Nhan sighed softly.
“It seems the situation is more serious than I thought.”
“This job is left to me.”
“But before investigating him…”
She stopped for a moment. Then ask in a very soft voice.
“Do you still remember who you are?”
I was stunned.
“To Nhan…”
She laughed. This time there was no more joking. Which brings with it a bit of reluctance.
“Hua Tinh.”
“You are the only person in this world who can give up her position as the eldest lady of the Hua family.”
“Give up assets worth hundreds of billions of yuan.”
“To run out and work hard for ten years.”
“Just because I want to raise my younger brother myself.”
“But you forgot one thing.”
Her voice suddenly became sharp.
“The Hua family may not need you.”
“But that doesn't mean the Hua family has disappeared.”
“Tran Van Ly is very strong.”
“Thien Vu Capital is also very strong.”
“But if you really want to confront him…”
“Why do we have to use Thinh Hoa's identity as Vice President Hua?”
“Why don't you use your real identity?”
My heart beats strongly. The hand unconsciously tightened the phone. To Nhan's voice rang out each word clearly.
“You know what?”
“Three days ago.”
“Your grandfather secretly returned to the country.”
“And he's looking for you.”
That moment. The whole room fell into silence. I stood motionless in front of the window. Ten years ago. Because of Hua Duong, I severed ties with the family. Ten years later. When Tran Van Ly cornered him on a dead end. The first thing to appear in the darkness... was the Hua family. The family I've been avoiding for ten years. The other end of the line. To Nhan was silent. A very long time later. She just spoke again. His voice no longer had the usual joking tone. But becoming serious is rare.
“Hua Tinh.”
“Did you really provoke him?”
“Are you crazy?”
To Nhan's voice immediately rose.
“Do you know what kind of person Tran Van Ly is?”
“He is the illegitimate son of the Tran family in the capital.”
“I had to step on countless people to climb to today's position.”
“Among the tycoons in the capital, he is famous as a madman.”
“No one wants to mess with him.”
“You touching him is like looking for your own death.”
I gently squeezed the phone. The Tran family is in the capital. Tran Van Ly's background is even scarier than I thought.
“But I have no choice any other.”
I briefly told her everything. From the war between Thinh Hoa and Thien Vu Capital. Until Hua Duong was threatened. After listening. To Nhan was silent again. This time it took longer than before. She gritted her teeth and scolded.
“Damn it!”
“He is trying to corner you.”
“So I need your help.”
“Only if we find his weakness.”
“I only have a chance to survive.”
To Nhan is my college roommate. Is my best friend. At the same time, he is also the heir to the To family. One of the most powerful families in the capital. Her resources. It was the only life-saving straw I could still hold on to. To Nhan answered without hesitation.
“I'll help you.”
“But you have to promise me something.”
“What?”
“Try to survive.”
Her voice was very serious.
“Before I investigate something.”
“You must endure.”
“No matter what Tran Van Ly makes you do.”
“Just do it for now.”
“As long as there are people, there is still a chance.”
“As long as you and Hua Duong are still alive.”
“We can still turn things around.”
The bridge of my nose is stinging. Tears almost fell.
“I understand.”
“Thank you, To Nhan.”
“So stupid.”
"What's still polite between us?"
“Waiting for my news.”
The call ended. I looked at the sky outside the window. The first time after a whole night of despair. A small light appeared in my heart.
