Chapter 3 — My Fiance Sneaks Down to the Countryside to Have an Affair

The village chief nodded:

"That's right! I also heard that this time a big boss from the city also sent someone to come. I heard that this tycoon came from an ordinary background, built his career with nothing, and is now one of the top businessmen in the country."

"At first, people didn't pay attention to our village and had no intention of cooperating. I don't know why they suddenly changed their minds this time."

"If our agricultural products are suitable, they will buy them all, at a price twice as high as selling them to middlemen! No one will steal the difference anymore!"

The exciting news caused the crowd to burst into cheers.

"That's so good! This year's crop isn't much, the buyers are forcing prices so hard, I thought I wouldn't have any money to take care of it this Tet!"

“So there is hope for my child's school fees!”

Truong Thu Phuong suddenly stepped up, pushed me and aggressively chased me out the village gate.

"You go away quickly! If I wasn't afraid that you standing here would dirty the eyes of some big people, then I would definitely have to talk to you clearly today!"

After speaking, she turned to the village chief and smiled flatteringly:

"Village chief, I'll immediately chase this old, flirtatious woman away! An old woman who still seduces men is truly shameless!"

The village chief then saw clearly that the person surrounded by the crowd was me. He immediately panicked and his face changed dramatically:

"Headmaster Tham! Why don't you rest in your room?"

I smiled politely:

“The room was a bit stuffy, so I went out for a walk.”

The village chief quickly wiped his sweat, bowed his head and bowed apologetically:

"I'm really sorry, the conditions in the village are still limited, the reception is not attentive!"

After speaking, he turned and scolded Truong Thu Phuong:

"That Luc family, what nonsense are you talking about?! This is the leader of the central inspection team, the great benefactor of our village!"

Luc Truong Thanh was stunned, as if he couldn't believe his ears:

"Village chief, have you got the wrong person? To be honest, she came here to find me. She... she was engaged to me before, and hasn't forgotten me for many years."

Truong Thu Phuong also put her hands on her hips, defiantly pointing at me, her voice full of bitterness:

"That's right, village chief! What kind of lady is she? Clearly a shameless old woman. She couldn't find anyone so she came back to fight for men with me!"

The village chief was so angry that he sweated profusely, slapped his thigh, his voice full of indignation:

"You guys! Do you want to make me angry to death?! Truong Thu Phuong, do you think your Mr. Luc is a treasure? A leader from the city comes down here and wants to fight with you?!"

Truong Thu Phuong was still mumbling curses, clearly not willing. Luc Truong Thanh looked at me, eyes full of contempt mixed with disappointment:

"Tham Vu Ha, I really didn't expect that you would become like this over the years. Because you wanted to hold on to me, you did not hesitate to impersonate a government official to deceive the villagers. You dared to even make up a blatant lie like this!" 1 year later

He took a deep breath and coldly continued:

"I tell you, no matter who you are now, even if you are the richest person in the country, I don't have any relationship with you! Give up this idea!"

I didn't have time to answer yet Suddenly, a series of noisy sounds rang out from the village gate. A shiny Mercedes car slowly drove into the village. The villagers were initially stunned, but soon threw all their shovels and picks and rushed out from every corner, surrounding the shiny car.

“What is this?” The old man's eyes widened, he even forgot to smoke the pipe cigarette in his hand, tremblingly pointed at the car and asked.

“Dad, this is a car, only available in the city!” The boy next to him excitedly touched the hem of his shirt and explained with an excited expression.

The sound of murmuring rang out in the crowd, the children shouted happily, running around the car to look. Adults could not hide their admiration, whispering about this rare "treasure". The village chief was also excited, rubbed his hands excitedly, and hurriedly urged:

"Hurry up, hurry up! It's a tycoon coming from the city, quickly prepare for a proper reception!"

The car door slowly opened, a man wearing a neat suit stepped out. He has a tall figure, a calm temperament, and an air of success and power evident in every gesture. After politely shaking hands and greeting the village chief, he did not hesitate and walked straight to me. His hand gently lifted up, gently wiping away the sweat on my forehead.

“Are you not used to the climate again?”

I raised my face and smiled at him:

“It's just a small matter, yet you personally ran all the way here.”

Tran Gia Hang looked at me with sadness:

"Look, you're allergic and you're still trying to hide it from me... Besides, your business is always the most important thing to me."

I gently pursed my lips, a sweet feeling spreading in my heart, letting him hold my hand.

“Where are you?”

"I knew you would definitely miss your child when you go on a business trip for a long time, so I took the boy with me. But the road was too bumpy, so I let the secretary take the child to the hotel in town and wait."

The village chief then woke up and slapped his thigh:

"Oh my God! It turns out that Chairman Tran and Chairman Tham are husband and wife! What a coincidence!"

“It's not a coincidence.” Tran Gia Hang gently hugged my shoulders, his eyes steady: "I intentionally came here to support my wife's work—helping people escape poverty."

The people who had just been surrounding me and mocking me were now completely dumbfounded, and the atmosphere immediately erupted into an uproar.

“It turns out she is actually a leader from above in the district!”

"The Luc family is truly a joke! She has such a rich husband, how could she seduce her old Luc family..."

“Look, their family even has their own car, what a spirit!”

The village chief smiled wryly, trying to calm the situation:

"It's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding... It's the people in the village who don't know how to look at people, causing homeroom teacher Tham to feel angry. As the village head, I have responsibility in this matter, I would like to apologize to the homeroom leader!"

I smiled faintly, my eyes were deep:

"Village head, I'm afraid I'm not sure about the village's poor people. I may have to check the application for poor district approval again. I can't make a hasty decision."

As soon as my words ended, the village chief's face immediately turned pale. He opened his mouth to argue something, but before he could speak, Tran Gia Hang raised his hand to stop him.

“Village chief, my wife is not well, I took her back to town Rest first, discuss cooperation later."

Luc Truong Thanh looked like a lost soul, looking at me with empty eyes:

“Are you… married?”

This is nothing to hide. I nodded calmly:

“That's right, my son is seven years old. According to family planning policy, in the city you can only have one child.”
