Chapter 11
Chapter 11 — My sister gave birth and then left. I took the baby and knocked on the door of my great-grandfather's house
I obediently followed Co Du Chau, silently walking towards the main building without saying a word. Until entering the familiar living room, isolated from all outside noise. My tense nerves just relaxed a little. My palms were covered in cold sweat. From the top of my head came Co Du Chau's low voice. I raised my head, facing his deep eyes. In those eyes, there was no longer the cold and calculating look like before, on the contrary, there was... comfort.
“I'm here.”
These three short, simple words made my ever-hanging heart suddenly feel strangely at peace. The old man sat on the monk's chair, his face pale. Obviously he knew everything that happened outside just now.
“You bastard!”
He slammed his hand down on the armrest.
“It's truly shameless to the extreme!”
“Du Chau, you will personally handle this matter!”
“I don't want to hear any more news about those two!”
“I don't want them to bother Niem Niem again!”
“Yes, sir.”
Co Du Chau nodded, took out his phone, walked aside, and whispered something. I looked at the side of his face. Angular, solid lines. Under the bright lights, he looked a bit unreal. Although this man is cold and domineering, he is also a bit poisonous. But when it comes to the crucial moment, he is truly like a mountain. A mountain can shield me from all rain and storms. After finishing the job, Co Du Chau walked back. He told me:
"Don't worry, they will never come to bother you again in the future."
His voice was extremely calm, as if he was just talking about a trivial matter that wasn't worth worrying about. But I know, the "good days" of Hua Kien Cong and Trieu Lan are over. I didn't ask what specifically he did. I don't want to know. I just quietly told him one sentence:
“Thank you.”
Co Du Chau looked at me and didn't answer. But his assistant Ly "reported" the situation to me the next day. Of course in a very flexible way. He said, the shabby apartment that Hua Kien Cong and Trieu Lan rented was suddenly reclaimed by the landlord, forcing them to move out immediately. They went to the bank to withdraw money and wanted to find another place to rent. It was discovered that the meager savings in the card had been temporarily blocked "due to a faulty banking system". Hua Kien Cong's leisurely job as a gatekeeper at the construction site was also taken away. After just one night. They became homeless, penniless. In this bustling metropolis, they turned into real drifting ghosts. This is Co Du Chau's trick. Direct, brutal, but extremely effective. Don't talk about the law with her, and don't play war with her. He just needs to snap his fingers and he can push her from the human world straight to hell. After listening, my mood was very complicated. On one hand, I feel extremely satisfied. This is the retribution they deserve. But on the other hand, I felt shivers at Co Du Chau's sharp, thunderous tricks. This man is much scarier than I imagined. At night, I lay on the big soft bed in Van Dinh villa. Tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Hua Jiangong's last words kept repeating in my head. After all, he has something Can make me paralyzed? I racked my brain and thought but couldn't figure it out. Right now. Before my eyes, without warning, the familiar yellow text flashed once again. 【Warning! The real danger is not your parents!】 【They're just a bunch of dancing clowns!】 【You have to be careful of the "accidents" that will naturally happen to you!】 My pupils suddenly constricted. What so-called “accidents” are inherently going to happen to me? The next line of text appeared, making the blood in my whole body almost freeze. 【Someone didn't want her to live until she was eighteen.】 【Her college entrance exam, her university, her future... someone had already arranged a carefully calculated death for her!】 【The reason she's still alive now is because she carried Hua Noc one step ahead, to the Co family's house!】 【You upset their plans. them!】 【But they will find you soon!】
“Boom” sound.
I felt like someone had dropped a bomb on my head. Someone... wants to kill me? The year I turned eighteen? How is that possible?! I'm just a very normal girl. No power, no power, no money, no beauty. Who would intend to take my life? I stared at the slowly disappearing words. An unprecedented cold air flowed from the soles of my feet to the top of my head. I realized it for the first time.
