The phone picked up in the first second.

“Assistant Ly.”

Co Du Chau's voice was as cold as the cold Siberian wind. Carrying an uncontrollable rage.

“I'll give you half an hour.”

“Mobilize all the relationships and power of the Co family.”

“Go investigate and give me a black dirt truck, the license plate is…”

He read out a series of numbers. I was stunned to realize that in that moment of life and death hanging by a thread. You can clearly see the license plate of the other person's car! This man's calmness and fearlessness are beyond my imagination!

"Investigate the car owner, driver, investigate his entire travel schedule today!"

“We need to find out who is behind him!”

He hesitated a bit, grinding each word as if gritting through his teeth:

“I want people to live.”

He turned his head and looked at me. In those deep eyes, there were intense emotions that I couldn't understand. There is fear, there is anger, and also... deep self-blame that cannot be hidden. He reached out and gently wiped away the blood on my face. It's not my blood, it's yours.

“Hua Niem.”

He looked at me, eyes as serious as ever.

“Sorry.”

“This matter is because I implicated you.”

I was stunned. Are you… apologizing to me? My heart trembled violently. Right now. That damn yellow text appeared again. This time, it did not warn, nor did it reveal any secrets. Just one sentence made me feel like I was falling into an ice cellar. 【This is not the end.】 【This is just the beginning.】 【They will not let you live beyond the age of eighteen.】 Ambulances and police cars came with sirens. Co Du Chau and I were taken to a private hospital belonging to the Co family group. Through a comprehensive general examination. I am completely safe and sound. Not even a scratch. As for Co Du Chau, his back was cut off in many ways by glass. The left arm had a slight fracture due to strong impact. He looked like he was not lightly injured, but he firmly refused to be hospitalized. Just let the doctor briefly treat the wound, then lead me back to Van Dinh villa. The old man was also shocked. He rushed over that night. Seeing Co Du Chau covered in wounds and his pale face. On the old man's always majestic face, sadness and fear appeared for the first time.

“You bastard!”

He raised his stick to strike, but was too sad to lower his hand. In the end, I could only knock hard on the floor.

“What is it all about!”

"Who is it! Dare to stroke the tiger's whiskers!"

Co Du Chau did not speak. He just sat on the sofa, letting the family doctor bandage his wound. His eyes were always glued to me. It seemed to confirm whether I was truly safe or not. Assistant Ly quickly arrived. He brought news that was both shocking and unexpected. The truck carrying soil that caused the accident was found. At an abandoned dock. The car was set on fire and burned down, leaving only the iron frame. The driver also died. His body was found in the sea not far from the car. The police initially determined that he had committed suicide because he was drunk and lost control of his vehicle. All clues here are broken. Clean and tidy. Doesn't leave any traces. Clearly this was a carefully planned assassination. The opponent's tricks are both cruel and professional. Room The guests fell into silence. The air was so stuffy that it was difficult to breathe. Finally, Co Du Chau also spoke up. His voice was very calm. But hidden beneath that calmness is a volcano waiting to erupt.

“Starting from today, triple the manpower next to Niem Niem.”

“Protect me twenty-four out of twenty-four.”

“Wherever she goes, the scene must be cleaned up first.”

“I don't want any more unexpected things to happen.”

The old man looked at him, then looked at me. He nodded heavily.

“I understand.”

“You will personally supervise this matter.”

"I want to see who is bold enough to touch my Co family's granddaughter-in-law!"

After the old man and assistant Ly left. In the large living room, there were only me and Co Du Chau left. He stood up and walked step by step in front of me. The tall figure completely obscured me.

“Are you scared?”

I shook my head. Then nodded again. I looked at the wound on his forehead and his arm wrapped in gauze.
