Chapter 6 — Love Of The Number System 001

His patience began to run out. He looked at me intently and said every word: "Tan Ninh, don't leave me." I quickly drove in another direction: "Please... let me go home." He suddenly squeezed my shoulder, pressing me against the wall: "I don't want to hear you say things like that anymore. From now on... you will live here." I tilted my head, my eyes sparkling with sarcasm: "Do you want to... take a bath together?" He was immediately stunned. But obviously he was very satisfied with my 'active' cooperation. I pulled his hand into the bathroom. When he saw the bathtub full of water, he visibly frowned. That's right — this room was personally prepared by him, because I once said I liked soaking in hot water. His face became worse and worse each time. And I gently wrapped my arms around his neck and whispered: "What's wrong? Didn't you say you loved me?" As if provoked, he replied in a low voice: "You finally thought it through." “Then… kiss me.” He immediately bowed his head, not taking any precautions. At that moment, I pushed with all my strength, and by the way, swept my leg across, causing him to fall backwards into the bathtub. As soon as his head touched the water, fear immediately rose on his face. Having only one chance, I pushed his head under the water and held it tight. I didn't let him die, but made him taste the feeling of suffocating with fear. A moment later, I grabbed his hair and pulled him up. He coughed and choked, panting violently. I looked at him coldly and said every word: "Giang Hac, don't tease me. I... can really kill you." 12 I leisurely walked out of the villa, holding my head up and puffing my chest as if nothing had happened. When I got my phone back, I immediately called Nham Vu. Just hearing my voice trembling slightly on the phone, he realized something was wrong. Very quickly, Nham Vu's voice reassured me: "Go find somewhere to hide, I'll be right there." Fortunately, Nham Vu lives in the same city. Otherwise, I - someone who was almost "exiled" here - really don't know who to rely on. When Nham Vu arrived, he hadn't even had time to adjust his collar. “Did you just quarrel with Giang Hac?” That guy has been doing so much lately, it's not strange for him to hear the news. I curled my lips: "You and him are not on good terms, let alone arguing?" He hesitated for a moment: "Actually... Giang Hac is not bad. Even though he was engaged, he didn't end up getting married. Now that he loves you so much, aren't you going to... consider it?" I glanced at him: "What? Didn't you boldly say that you would pursue me before?" “I still want to pursue it, but it's because you refuse.” His voice sounded adorably warm and resentful, making ordinary people probably soften their hearts a long time ago. I gently stroked his collar with my hand, making him jump. I just glanced at it, then calmly said: "Next time you say sweet words to another girl, remember to change your shirt first." The lipstick mark on the collar — I don't know which girl rushed to leave it. How clever. He wasn't angry, just smiled: "If you agree, I will immediately cut off all relations with others." “It's best to become a monk.” I smiled slightly. “I'm no longer interested in men these days.” — Suddenly I thought of something, so I said: “Come with me to do this.” “What happened?” “Go buy a dog.” “Why buy a dog now?” Nham Vu looked at me questioningly. “Guard the house, prevent thieves.” But in my heart I heard the voice "Fat" ringing out: 【Host, don't tell me what you're planning to... use me for. okay?】 Say it and do it. Dogs must choose a large one. I brought home a Danish mastiff as big as a calf, majestic and majestic. Nham Vu looked at him and didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Raising this child costs money. Okay, let me take care of the food expenses." I happily called the dog by its familiar name: "Fat?" There was an immediate response in my mind: 【Too ugly. Don't try.】 I was busy explaining the gentle personality of mastiffs when the phone rang. News just broke out — my entire identity has been exposed. — I have never actively mentioned my parents. In the past, my father was falsely accused of embezzling public funds, owed employee salaries, and then ran away. Under pressure from public opinion, he jumped to his death. My mother brought all her assets that could be converted into money to pay the debt on his behalf. After that, she also followed him. The way she chose to die was horrifyingly cruel. — That day, she told me to take me on a trip. Buy me new clothes, make me beautiful. She looked at me and gently said: "Ninh Ninh, you are so beautiful." But I also heard her voice, small and trembling: "Ninh Ninh... I'm sorry." I tried to suppress my fear, and she... stepped on the accelerator really hard. Right before the car crashed into the barrier, she slightly shifted the steering wheel. The iron bar pierced her body. With her last breath, she whispered in my ear: "Ninh Ninh... remember, your father did not embezzle." — When I was rescued, I panicked to the point of being stupid. You said those words... what do you think I should do, when I'm all alone? The internet is full of cursing words: "Parents are scammers, their children are no good." I was called a person who harms people, a social insect. Some people even openly told me I should die. At that moment, Giang Hac called. His voice on the phone was like a sedative: "Tan Ninh... come to me. I will protect you." “Tin Ninh, I don't care about your past.” 13 Sometimes I wonder: Maybe... I'm not a good person. I never really believed that Giang Hac wanted to "protect" me. He was probably only reluctant to show closeness and intimacy because he wanted to survive. Because... I saw - the "love affair that ended soon" between him and Hua Khiet, was caught again in a brand new photo. Financial news cannot be photographed, but tabloid pages are full of it. In the photo, she is sitting opposite her, her eyes filled with tears. He bent down and gently wiped away her tears. I don't feel that Giang Hac is wrong at all. Love is something that cannot be forced. Coming reluctantly, it's really not sweet. So even though I heard those gentle words, even though I saw those images — my heart didn't waver at all. — “Director Giang, you don't need to do that.” I looked out the window, the sky was clear blue. “I'm not as weak as you think.” "Besides, I believe in my father. My past is not something to be ashamed of. You don't have to force yourself to be so tolerant." Giang Hac was still explaining, still advising me to move to his house for safe protection. I smiled lightly, patting the head of the big dog next to me: "No need. My family has a fierce dog, enough to keep me safe." “Tin Ninh, are you still so stubborn in this situation?” His voice was clearly annoyed. I didn't bother calling "director" anymore: "Giang Hac, I didn't understand what you were talking about 'system' before. But a few days ago... I also got one." Just said, me glanced at the dog — it seemed to also raise its head to look at me. I laughed and patted his head: "Little Fatty, go over there and eat something. Mom will play with you after work." "Fat": 【Host, I'm serious, you're taking advantage of me.】 【This dog doesn't even have any aesthetics, can you accept such a name?】 I tried to hold back my laughter, turned around and said to Giang Hac: "Jiang Hac, did you know? When there was a system that said 'it has linked to me', I knew - it turns out you weren't lying." On the other side, Giang Hac breathed a sigh of relief: "Tan Ninh, see? I told you, we are a match made in heaven. You should believe me even more now." I laughed softly: “Then… please listen to me until the end.” “My system is called: Lying System.” “And it just told me — everything you said, it was all fake.” — Giang Hac was startled. He didn't believe he had been exposed and began to examine me. “Stop joking, Tan Ninh… Why are there so many systems?” I know, this sentence — he said it honestly. I looked at him and slowly said: "My system talks like a whisper in the ear, other people can't hear it. It also has its own mission." “And that mission is… if the people around me continue to lie, I will become more and more unlucky.” “So, Giang Hac — please, stay away from me.” — I suddenly remembered the recent news and asked in a cold voice: "There's one more thing. I want you to investigate, who was the first person to release information about my parents?" I suspect — the person behind this… is him, or Hua Khiet. Giang Hac was silent for a few seconds, then spoke: "Tan Ninh... maybe it's because of me. Recently I openly said I love you, that's why someone wants to dig up your past. I'm sorry."
