Chapter 5 — Passion

14After saying that, I turned around and walked away. Ky Kien Bach followed closely behind me. I slightly tilted my head and asked him: "Aren't you practicing, why are you here?" "I also received the invitation." He bowed his head, gently looked into my eyes: "And moreover, you haven't contacted me in the past few days, I... miss you, Le Da." I've been really busy these past few days. Busy fighting for every piece of bait, busy fighting to overthrow the shackles that have been hanging around my neck for the past few years. I came here tonight just to confirm whether Pho Sam really showed up or not, to avoid him doing anything unexpected when the contract is about to be signed. Luckily, everything went smoothly according to plan. Ha, it seems I have rated Pho Sam too highly. He never took me seriously. So, all these years after getting married, I quietly under his eyelids, founded a company, bought the eSports team, and then helped the team rise from the ruins. I moved between Pho Thi and the Le family, taking advantage of the information I gathered to gradually build the company, finally reaching today. When we realized it, we were close to the door. I hadn't yet thought of a way to answer Ky Kien Bach's straightforward statement when a group of reporters surrounded me. "Miss Le, are you the other person in the photo taken in the car that day?" "Excuse me, has your marriage with the Deputy General ended?" "Openly having an affair during your marriage, what do you think about this? Do you not feel embarrassed but proud to bring your lover to events like this?" The last question, carrying malice. obvious and not hidden at all. I looked straight into the male reporter's eyes full of gloating and contempt, then suddenly burst out laughing: "Shouldn't you ask Pho Sam who's sitting in there?" "Since the day we got married, every two months, he's been photographed bringing a new girlfriend to different events. At that time, what did you guys say?" I used my finger to lightly tap my chin, as if I had just remembered something. "Oh, you guys said that marriage is in the cards." The upper class are all controlled by interests, both sides take whatever they need, having a young and beautiful person by their side is also normal." "If I really had an affair, it would be because Pho Sam violated the previous marriage contract, the fault is his, and I am just responding in a legitimate way." "Moreover, the relationship between me and Ky Kien Bach is not what you think." Having said that, I lightly stepped aside, carefully avoiding his hand that was about to grab my hand. "It's not you guys. Always wondering about who holds the largest shares of the Son Nguyet team after being bought by a mysterious investor? "Ky Kien Bach suddenly turned his head to look at me. In the cold night wind blowing, I calmly and coldly said: "I am his owner." 15 When I uttered that sentence, many memories related to Ky Kien Bach flashed through my mind, like puzzle pieces in a movie. At the party that day, I added him to my friends list, but after that I had no further contact. Until the night Ky Kien Bach had a fever, he called the wrong number by mistake. He originally intended to call a friend to bring medicine, but instead called me by mistake. I brought a bag of fever-reducing medicine to his house and opened the door with the code. When I arrived, his face was red from high fever, and he seemed to no longer be conscious. After taking the medicine, his hot face pressed against my hand, rubbing back and forth. "I'm both hot and cold..." I looked down at him, calmly asked: "So, can I hug you?" Ky Kien Bach looked at me with dreamy eyes, curled his lips and smiled slightly, but his voice was hoarse: "Are you going to take advantage of my weakness?" "That's right." I replied: "But you can still refuse me." He didn't answer, but just pulled me down.

British. My hands and body are always cool, maybe that makes him feel comfortable, he keeps hugging me, tighter and tighter. "Sister, isn't it uncomfortable to wear something so tight?" "Uncomfortable." I lifted his face: "Then help me take it off, good boy." Even though we hadn't reached the final step, the relationship between us had changed since that night. I admit that at first I was only attracted by his appearance, and had no intention of going far with him. I was just looking for a fun moment, and the way he played with me made me think he thought the same way I did. … The sudden tightening on my wrist pulled me back to reality. Ky Kien Bach with a cold expression grabbed my wrist and pulled me forward quickly. When a reporter tried to block the way to ask more, he raised his eyebrows and smiled faintly at them: "I need to go back to the team to review the match and discuss tactics for the next quarter, do you want to come and listen too?" His voice was so cold and sharp that it was impossible to hide. The reporter still refused to give up, raising his hand to block: "What about the girlfriend you mentioned—" Ky Kien Bach lost patience and coldly spit out one word: "Get out." 16 The moonlight lingered on each street, sparkling like silk. Ky Kien Bach and I sat in the car, the atmosphere was quiet and silent. A few seconds later, he suddenly laughed lightly: "Aren't you going to tell me anything?" I sighed softly: "It's my fault. At first when I saw you like that, I thought this was just an adult's hidden game." "But I told you, we were just playing—" "Not that!" He suddenly interrupted: "You're the team's owner, why didn't you tell me?" I calmly looked at him: "It would be very troublesome to say so." He stopped for a moment, as if he had just said understood something. "That day, when we were photographed and made hot searches, the manager came to me and said that we had to hold a press conference to deny the affair—that's your idea, right?" Ky Kien Bach leaned towards me, leaning on the back seat. "Le Da, in your eyes, am I someone who can't be that public?" The distance between us gradually narrowed, our breathing mingled, the atmosphere became extremely dark. But in his eyes, I only saw my own cold indifference reflected. "Because we are not in love." "What path my life will take, what I will do, has been decided four years ago. I will not let you disturb the rhythm of my life." "As for the reason I didn't tell you that I am the owner of the club, is because after our short relationship ended, I didn't want it to affect your work in the team." "Because of work." Helping the team achieve good results and bring higher commercial value is also a part of my career." The tip of his nose almost touched my nose, in the mingled breath, I smelled the characteristic cold eucalyptus scent from him. "If you have carefully planned like that, and suddenly made it public today, aren't you afraid that I will take advantage of the break in the tournament and move to another team?" I was silent for a few seconds: "That's your freedom." He sneered, Stand up straight, open the car door and walk away without looking back.
