Chapter 6 — On my wedding day, I was forced to give up 19 real estate properties. I flipped the table on the spot

"Remember the person I asked you to look up? Lam Vy Vy."

“Remember, what?”

“Dig deeper. The college process, the job after graduation, all the social relationships.”

“Are you still interrogating her?”

“She is more than just a chess piece.”

“What do you mean?”

"An ordinary distant relative cannot catch To Uyen Thanh's eyes as a spy. Lam Vy Vy herself... has value."

“What value?”

“You help me find it.”

I hung up. The second day in Lam Chau, I returned to the To family. Don't go in—just stand across the street and watch. The gate has two additional guards. The iron door has been replaced. The ginkgo tree in the yard is still there, taller than three years ago. Before I turned eighteen, my whole life was behind that gate. Parents died early. My grandfather raised me. Teach me to read books, teach me to do business, teach me to see people. When he was eighteen years old, he transferred 30% of To Thi shares to my name. Then To Uyen Thanh returned. She had been abroad for fifteen years and suddenly returned—bringing with her a will supposedly from my father, stating that To Thi's shares were to be temporarily managed by her. That will is fake. But she hired seven lawyers, two inspection organizations... to prove it was real. The lawsuit lasted a year. It's not because the law is not on my side— It's because she bribed the psychiatrist and gave the court a conclusion:

"To Niem lost his parents early, suffered psychological damage, and was not capable of managing large assets."

Based on that, the court ruled: To Niem's guardianship and asset management rights were temporarily transferred to To Uyen Thanh. That year... I was twenty-two years old. The day she was swept out of her house, she stood in front of the To family's gate, wearing the same dark gray suit as today.

"Nien Niem, you're still young. It's good to go out for a bit. When you've thought it through, just come back."

I still clearly remember her expression when she said that. Not hatred. It's indifference. Like dealing with something that isn't worth worrying about. From that day, I went to Kinh Hai. Using the remaining capital, it took half a year to establish Thinh Nguyen. Three years... climbed to the top 10 of Kinh Hai. Not to prove anything. Just to have one day... come back and take back what belongs to me. And that day… has come. A voice rang out from behind. It's Co Tham.

“Why are you here?”

"Wherever you go, my people will follow. Don't pay attention, this is your grandfather's arrangement."

“My grandfather told you to follow me?”

“He told me to protect you.”

I turned back to look at him.

"Protected me? The past three years?"

“In the three years you have been in Kinh Hai, do you really think that Thinh Nguyen's big projects were all won by you?”

I stopped.

"Tan Thanh Van Son land, according to the normal process, it takes eight months to approve, it only took me four months. For the Dong Ngan project, the environmental report often has to be rejected once, so I passed it right from the beginning."

“What do you mean—”

"Your grandfather is behind you helping you. Through me."

“Why don't you tell me directly?”

"Because he's not sure if you will accept it or not. When you left the To family, you said you wouldn't take anything from the To family again."

I was silent.

"He understands you. You are a person with principles. If you help him directly, you will refuse. So he chose... without you finding out."

“Hidden it from me for three years.”

I turned my head to look back at the To family. Behind that closed iron gate... is the aunt who chased me away. And the person who has silently supported me for three years... is in the operating room.

“The surgery… definitely success."

"Sure."

Returning to the hotel, there was movement in Kinh Hai again. Tham Tu sent three messages. First news: After Hung Vien Capital invested capital, Tran Quoc Dong immediately held a press conference in Kinh Hai, announcing that Tran Thi received 200,000,000 yuan in strategic investment, preparing for a comprehensive upgrade. Second news: When asked about Thinh Nguyen, Tran Quoc Dong said, "The cooperation between To Niem and Tran Thi is based on personal relationships, not commercial cooperation. Her act of withdrawing capital constitutes unfair competition, we reserve the right to prosecute." Third news: After the press conference, Tran Hao accepted an interview and said, "The marriage between me and To Niem is a personal matter, but she took advantage of the marital relationship for commercial gain, which is immoral." I finished reading three messages. Just one word answer:
