Chapter 7 — Not married yet, asked me to have children, I turned around and married the CEO

He personally wore that necklace for me. The cool feeling of the jewelry gently touching my collarbone made me tremble slightly, while his fingertips, while accidentally brushing my skin, seemed to carry a thin electric current, running straight to my heart, causing my heartbeat to suddenly skip a beat. He looked straight into my eyes, his voice was low and slow, making my cheeks heat up uncontrollably. I didn't know if he was praising the necklace or me, but just a short sentence like that was enough to make the atmosphere strangely ambiguous. When we arrived, in front of the lobby were parked all kinds of luxury cars, each one shiny and clearly showing the owner's class. Inside the hall was a world of dazzling luxury, chandeliers reflected sparkling light everywhere, laughter mixed with the sound of clinking glasses creating a flashy picture that I had only seen in economic magazines before. All the faces appearing here are almost all people I have only seen on newspaper covers or in financial columns. I unconsciously squeezed Luc Canh Tham's arm, an indescribable feeling of nervousness arose in my heart, both nervous and like I was stepping onto a stage that did not belong to me. He seemed to sense that insecurity, slightly tilting his head close to my ear, his deep voice lowered very low. "Don't be afraid. Just walk beside me, smile, nod. Leave the rest to me." His warm breath passed through my ear, bringing with it a very slight itching feeling but enough to make my whole body tense in the blink of an eye. For some reason, just those few simple sentences made me feel much calmer. From the moment we entered the hall, we almost immediately became the focus of the party. Countless eyes turned towards me at the same time, some were curious, some were curious, some were jealous, and some were cold looks carrying deep meanings. Everyone is guessing who the woman who could stand next to Luc Canh Tham is. Luc Canh Tham remained as calm as ever, his eyes straight ahead, leading me through the crowd with slow but steady steps. He didn't walk quickly, as if intentionally letting everyone see my existence clearly, as if he was publicly declaring to the whole world that from today onwards, I am the woman standing next to him. The feeling of being stared at by countless people made me both nervous and give rise to a strange kind of vanity. It cannot be denied that standing next to a man like Luc Canh Tham, with the whole hall watching, it is truly easy to make people feel confused. An old man with gray hair but still spiritedly walked towards us, laughing cheerfully as he walked. “Canh Tham, you finally agreed to come.”

“Uncle Vuong.” Luc Canh Tham nodded slightly, his attitude was very respectful but still kept the original distance.

The old man's eyes stopped on me, and there was a gentle assessment, not sharp. “Who is this?” Luc Canh Tham pulled me a little closer to him, his arms naturally wrapped around my waist. His voice was not loud, but clear enough for those standing nearby to hear every word.

“My wife, Hua Niem.”

The two words "my wife" are like one fruit Heavy bombs were thrown straight into the crowd, causing the surrounding atmosphere to immediately stir. Many people simultaneously showed surprised expressions, clearly no one expected the general director of Luc Thi Group, who was famous for being cold and had not been involved in any love scandal for many years, to secretly get married. Uncle Vuong was stunned for a second, then burst into laughter, his expression both surprised and happy. "This kid really hid it well. He didn't tell us old people about such a big fun story."

“Next time I will definitely make up for it.” Luc Canh Tham replied very faintly, but his hand was still firmly placed on my waist, as if as long as he stood here, I wouldn't need to be afraid of anything.

Very soon, several rich ladies dressed in gorgeous clothes approached, all with perfect social smiles on their faces, but their eyes looking at me were not friendly at all. Among them was a woman with elaborate makeup who spoke first, her tone clearly filled with a feeling of superiority.

"Lady Luc looks so strange, I wonder which family she is from?"

Before I could answer, Luc Canh Tham spoke first. His voice became a bit colder, neither fast nor slow, but strong enough to immediately choke the listener.

"My wife, does she have to be a member of any family?"

Just one sentence made the woman's face turn red, her lips moved but she couldn't say a word. The remaining people immediately knew what was happening and remained silent, no one dared to continue asking further questions. With just one answer, he let everyone clearly understand his attitude. Then he took me to the rest area, personally got me a glass of juice and put it in my hand. “You sit here and wait for me for a moment, I'll go say hello to a few people.”

"Yes." I obediently nodded, feeling in my heart that this identity of "Mrs. Luc" was really convenient to use.
