Chapter 10 — My Late Light

The phone screen is lit, it's the document the assistant just sent, detailed records of Hua Nam Am's marriage registration. The pressure in the car compartment was so low that even the driver sitting in the driver's seat held his breath, carefully observing his boss's face through the rearview mirror. Chu Nghien Thu's face was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip out. Her peachy eyes, which usually carried a bit of indifference, were now covered with blood, her eyes were so sharp that people didn't dare to look straight. "Can you find it?" Chu Nghien Thu's voice was hoarse, carrying a hint of suppressed tyranny. The assistant in the passenger seat turned around, holding a newly printed document in his hand, with thick sweat on his forehead. He swallowed his saliva and his voice trembled slightly: "General Manager Chu, I found it. Ms. Hua has indeed testified with Co Tinh Da, the goods are real and the price is real." Chu Nghien Thu lowered her eyes in disappointment. Has Hua Nam Am really abandoned him and chosen to be with someone else? Are not! He didn't believe it, there must be another secret that he didn't know about. "When did they register?" The assistant instinctively raised his head to observe Chu Nghien Thu's face, and tremblingly replied: "The registration time... was on the day you were absent from the wedding." The finger that was tapping on Chu Nghien Thu's knee suddenly stopped. He snatched the document from his assistant's hand, moving as quickly as an afterimage. The document was flipped over roughly, eyes fell on the "registration date" column. That was the day he should have held his wedding with Hua Nam Am. That day was the day he and Hua Nam Am got married. Chu So So made a fuss and said he wanted to help him and Hua Nam Am prepare for the wedding. She was very understanding about the entire wedding process, from the setting, to the costumes, to the food, she did it all herself, asking everyone's preferences. Chu Nghien Thu immediately felt completely secure in handing over the management to Chu So So. But he did not expect that a problem would still occur at the last moment. Hua Nam Am and her family hadn't arrived yet. When asked, Chu So So said the traffic jam was on the way, almost there. Until the auspicious moment was about to come, under Zhou Yanshu's questioning, Chu So So told the truth. But it had already happened, Chu Nghien Thu blamed Chu So Chu and it was useless, so he told Hua Nam Am's whole family to come over. Chu Nghien Thu did not expect that this would be the beginning of his own push of Hua Nam Am towards someone else. The photo in the file is a photo of Hua Nam Am and Co Tinh Da together. Chu Nghien Thu stared at that photo, stared at that strange man, stared at that dazzling date. The car was as quiet as death. Everyone thought that in the next second, Chu Nghien Thu would explode, would smash the documents in his hand, and would scream for someone to chop up that man named Co Tinh Da. But the imagined rage did not happen. Chu Nghien Thu stared at that document for a long time, her tense shoulders suddenly relaxed. He leaned back in his chair, the corner of his mouth slowly curled up into a strange curve, and at last he laughed in a low voice. Laughter echoed in the closed car compartment, so loud that it made the hair on the back of your neck stand up. The assistant and driver looked at each other, not understanding what was wrong with the boss. Are you mad? Chu Nghien Thu casually threw the document aside, then raised her hand to rub her eyebrows. The gloom on his face was wiped away, replaced by a kind of false, twisted peace of mind. "It turns out that's it, I knew it, she couldn't really marry someone else." "I was absent from the wedding that day, she was angry with me so she randomly found someone to testify." Hua Nam Am loved him so much, how could she marry someone else when he hadn't completely let go yet? This is definitely a farce, a pay marriage

enmity caused by his indifference and coldness. As long as he is willing to bow his head, as long as he is willing to explain and comfort her, it will all be over. The assistant carefully asked: "General Manager Chu, so now we..." Chu Nghien Thu adjusted his collar, restoring his old leisurely and confident look, as if the gloom just now had never existed: "First investigate the matter clearly, then go find her." "If I know she is angry with me, then I will go comfort her." "As long as I let go of my thoughts, nothing is irreparable." "Once the misunderstanding is resolved, I will pick her up." Come back, make it up to her well.” He even began to calculate in his heart. After returning home, what gift should I give and what sweet words should I say to calm Hua Nam Am's anger, causing her to take the initiative to divorce that man named Co Tinh Da. In his eyes, Hua Nam Am still loves him, still belongs to him. But he didn't know, their relationship completely collapsed the moment he was absent from the wedding. Chu Nghien Thu's mood improved a lot. He suddenly remembered what Co Tinh Da said during the confrontation at the hospital. Hua Nam Am's injury was being abused in a forbidden room. Thinking of this, Chu Nghien Thu's face immediately darkened: "Speed up, go back!" The atmosphere in the car became cold again.
