Chapter 5 — Laying a Love Trap for the Beijing Heir

“Today is not just my birthday.”

“It's also the anniversary of my mother's death.”

When he said this, Tieu Ky's face turned pale.

"When I was young, Tieu Truong Bach had an affair and gave birth to an illegitimate child, who is now Trieu Can."

"Because of this illegitimate child, Tieu Truong Bach forced his mother to divorce, and at the same time planned to take custody of him. Right on his birthday, that lover brought the illegitimate child into the house."

"Your mother... she..." Tieu Ky's eyes were dull: "She committed suicide. Apparently, two hours ago, she also celebrated my birthday."

“Before the clock struck midnight, she died on my birthday.”

“It was Tieu Truong Bach and his lover who forced your mother to the end!”

Tieu Ky seemed to fall into a nightmare again, his hands clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white and trembled non-stop.

"Your mother passed away. Because of public opinion, Tieu Truong Bach could not immediately reveal his relationship with his illegitimate son and his lover, so he blackmailed them into living separately."

“He was just waiting for time to pass and no one would remember his wife who had committed suicide in despair, so he could rearrange everything.”

"But his lover was not easy to deal with. She kept Tieu Truong Bach's secret and repeatedly blackmailed him for large sums of money. When things got out of hand, Tieu Truong Bach staged an accident and killed her."

Tieu Ky smiled sickly: "Of course, if Tieu Truong Bach doesn't take action, when I grow up I will kill her myself." Hearing that, I suddenly shivered.

“As for Tieu Truong Bach… if he is a little more reasonable, when the Tieu family falls into my hands, I will publicly announce his murder and personally send him to prison to ‘enjoy his old age’.”

“But he dared to accept that bastard!”

Tieu Ky closed his eyes, seemingly trying to control his emotions. When he opened his eyes again, anger was evident in his bloodshot eyes.

"It's okay, this fortune will not fall into Trieu Can's hands, not even a penny."

At this point, I could easily guess what Tieu Ky was planning to do. He gradually woke up, looking at me with worried eyes, as if he wanted to touch me but didn't dare.

“Ah, don't be afraid.”

"Tieu Truong Bach must go bankrupt. The thing he treasures most, I will destroy it myself."

“Even if you lose everything.”

I took the initiative to hold his hand and gently comfort him.

“Idiot, I still have you.”

Moonlight shines into the room, dim and full of mystery. Tieu Ky's whole body trembled, for a moment he was like a child who made a mistake, shrinking back.

"Ah, I'm a coward. That woman killed my mother for money and status, so from that moment on, I hated all women who only look at money. It seems that only by taking revenge on them can I feel some pleasure."

"I didn't believe there was true love in this world, until I met you. I often regret the challenges, lies and humiliation I gave you from the beginning."

“If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't have any future.”

“I gave all my secrets to you, and want to ask for your forgiveness.”

“I want to keep you.”

He laid out all of my heart, naked and unconcealed, before his eyes. I didn't say anything, just quietly hugged him. Because I heard such a ridiculous reason, if just one more second, I wouldn't be able to hide the sarcasm and hatred in my eyes. He slowly tightened his grip, and his breathing in my ear gradually calmed down.

“My birthday wish is that from now on, every year on this day, I will have you by my side.”

Stupid, once a wish is said, it no longer has meaning.

Tieu Thi Group convened a shareholder meeting, Trieu Can also arrogantly appeared. I went with Tieu Ky, waiting for him in the lobby. Han Nha also came. She plopped down in the chair opposite me, her diamond earrings sparkling blindingly.

“Tieu Ky probably doesn't have time to care about you anymore, right?” She said: "The Tieu family suddenly had a stepchild. The most important thing for him now is to protect his rights."

“And you, other than entertaining him, can't do anything to help.”

I took a sip of tea, without looking at her: "Oh." She snorted coldly: "What he needs, I can help him get. He will realize how important I am."

“It's best if you leave on your own, so as not to lose face.”

Me: “Oh.” She got angry and slammed the cup on the table: "Let's see how long you can pretend!" The shareholder meeting ended, the first person to come down was Trieu Can. He was happy, his face radiant. When he saw me, he became even more excited.

“Tieu Ky's little girlfriend!”

“You came to congratulate me?” Trieu Can smiled wickedly.

I smiled: "Hello, Mr. Trieu."

“Nonono!” He waved his hand: "You should call me now, Mr. Tieu."

“I told you, I will take everything back that belongs to me.”

I bowed my head and read the book: "Congratulations." Trieu Can moved closer, his hand placed on his shoulder, he looked full of complacency.

"Half of the Tieu family's assets are mine, and Tieu Ky's woman... I'm also a little interested."

"You are so talented, even someone like Tieu Ky considers you a treasure. I wonder how talented you are in bed..."

Before he finished speaking, Trieu Can was punched by Tieu Ky, fell over, rolled a few times on the ground before stopping. I have seen many appearances of Tieu Ky, but I have never seen him as dangerous and fierce as he is now. Trieu Can tried to get up, but was kicked a few more times by Tieu Ky and fell to the ground. Faced with this sudden fight scene, no one dared to step forward to stop it. One heir beat another heir miserably. As soon as Trieu Can cursed, Tieu Ky kicked him again. Until Trieu Can no longer had the strength to stand up, the security guard pretended to come and stop him. Han Nha was also so scared that she stood rooted to the spot. I slowly walked forward, wrapping my arms around Tieu Ky's waist from behind.

“I'm fine, don't be angry anymore.”

His fist gradually loosened, and when he turned around, his eyes were still red, scaring others. Trieu Can was helped up, still not forgetting to curse loudly.

“Tieu Ky, remember, from today I am also named Tieu!”

“Can you change this truth!”

"Phew! Just wait and see, I'll show dad who is worthy of being his son!"

... Tieu Ky held my hand and left, Han Nha immediately chased after me: "Tieu Ky, you don't need to make plans with him right now."

"You just need to bow your head a little to Uncle Tieu, I will help you too. He won't fight against you."

She blocked in front of the car, then pointed straight at herself and blamed: "And you too! Tieu Ky used to hate you, do you remember? Now because of you, they made them fight in front of everyone, causing Tieu Ky to be criticized everywhere. What do you really intend?"

“Tieu Ky, only I can help you, don't you realize that?”

Han Nha continued speaking without paying attention to Tieu Ky's cold expression. The car engine suddenly sounded. Tieu Ky coldly said two words: "Get away." Han Nha was not willing, but at the last minute, when the car actually approached, she had to step aside.

"Tam m! I will definitely make Tieu Ky see your true face!"

After that, I didn't ask anything about what Tieu Ky planned to do. He started coming home early and coming home late, and when he came home, he often liked to lie on my lap, listening to me tell stories about school. One day, while listening, he suddenly said: "Ah, when everything is over, let's get married." I just smiled and said nothing. Not long after, Tieu Thi actually declared bankruptcy. Tieu Thi Group encountered a major crisis in the production chain, all assets under the name Tieu Truong Bach were frozen. Tieu Ky, after many years of quietly hiding, has planted an underground bomb in Tieu Thi Group. As soon as Tieu Truong Bach decided to divide the inheritance, Tieu Ky would rather destroy everything than let his enemies enjoy any profits. It's not surprising that he once said that sooner or later the Tieu family would go bankrupt. Not only that, Tieu Ky also accused his father of killing his lover and personally sent him to prison. He's been crazy for so many years, one more time would be nothing. From here, the Tieu family collapsed. The property that Trieu Can just received suddenly became a huge compensation due to breach of contract. Half a month later, Tieu Ky returned home. While I was cooking, he hugged me tightly and didn't let go, as if he wanted to melt me into his body. He said: "Ah, I'm so tired."

“It's all over.”

For the Tieu family, this is an irreversible disaster. Although Tieu Ky also lost a lot of things, he still had his own career, not dependent on his family, so he did not fall into hardship. He buried his face in my neck and whispered:

"Ah, lately I've been sending people to follow you every time you go out. I'm afraid Trieu Can will take a risk."

“Wait a little longer, I will deal with him immediately.”

“After that, we got married.”

“Ah, I only have you left…”
