Chapter 3 — Power Game: I'm the Last Laugher

Cui Yen looked at me, smiled slightly, and gestured politely. "You are the true genius of the Trang family? Nice to meet you." “But I heard that my sister was bullied on her first day of school. Can you tell me what happened?” Having said that, he naturally sat down opposite me. Just looking at his appearance, no one would think he was a pervert - on the contrary, they would think he was a polite, elegant scholar. But I - someone who has experienced his sick tricks and scary hobbies - understand very clearly: I was targeted by him. I stood up, my face cold. "It's enough that you manage your sister's mouth well. Otherwise it won't just be cold water next time." Having finished speaking, I turned around and left. But Cui Yen grabbed her wrist. My whole body had goosebumps and goosebumps stood up. "Wait. If it's true that Trang Tam Tam is wrong, I should invite you to eat a meal and apologize on her behalf, okay?" I immediately pushed his hand away. “Don't touch me.” I wiped my hand clean where he just touched it. "There's no need to apologize. Take good care of her." After saying that, I quickly left there, afraid that he would chase me again. Just walked a few steps, and sure enough, someone came from behind. I angrily turned around and scolded: "Why are you still following?!" Hac Lam Uyen paused for a moment: "I came to see how you are." At this point I realized I scolded the wrong person, I just wished I could slap myself twice. “Sorry, sorry, I thought Cui Yen was following behind.” "No problem." Hac Lam Uyen looked at me, concern flashed in his eyes. 6 “Need my help?” I smiled: "No need, I can handle those little things myself." Having said that, I got excited again to tease him. I stealthily approached, my voice full of cunning: "If you want to help me, how about you get engaged to me soon? Uncle Trang is now carrying the entire company alone, it's pitiful. I also want to give him a hand." Hac Lam Uyen was clearly not used to my sudden approach, his whole body stiffened. Without waiting for him to answer, I proactively changed the subject: "Okay, it's late, I have to go to class." I took two steps back and waved goodbye to him: "See you later!" He nodded slightly. I was just about to turn around and leave but stopped for a moment. “Hach Lam Uyen, when you get closer you can smell it – you really smell good.” I suddenly saw Hac Lam Uyen's face turn red. “Ha ha ha, goodbye!” The unpleasant mood caused by Cui Yen was wiped away again. After school, I smiled and talked with Trinh Qua as I prepared to go home. At this time, the class monitor suddenly ran over: "The homeroom teacher called you to the teacher's room. It seems to be related to Trang Tam Tam." He was also quite close to me, and reminded me: "Be careful, I think she seems to have called the parents." I snorted coldly and nodded. Trinh Qua was worried and wanted to stay and go with me. I patted her shoulder: "Don't worry, what could happen to me? You go ahead first, I'll find you later to discuss some business matters." Going to the teacher's room, from afar I heard Trang Tam Tam crying. "Teacher Tran, I know I just moved here, I don't have any friends, I shouldn't bother anyone." "But she's really too much, daring to throw water on me and insulting me..." I snorted softly, pushed the door open and walked in. “Hello Ms. Tran.” I said hello to the teacher who had a headache from that crying scene. Even though I'm new class from this semester, but before that I had a few meals with him, our relationship was not bad, at least he wouldn't make things difficult for me over trivial things like this. Trang Tam Tam saw me coming in, quickly wiped her tears, cowered behind her mother, appearing very scared of me. Haven't seen my mother for many days, she has changed almost nothing. Still looking as calm as nothing, sitting respectfully, his face calm as if he didn't care about the world. Seeing me coming, her expression did not waver at all. "I'm here. Do you admit what Tam Tam said?" I smirked and shook my head: "Of course I don't accept it. Who bullied her?" Mother's face flashed with anger. "The right thing is in people's hearts. If you lie, there will be retribution." I pouted: "An adult like you, questioning me like this... I'm afraid it's not appropriate? Or should I wait until my parents come and then continue?" I looked towards the homeroom teacher, he nodded in agreement. Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is coming. I called my father in advance, he immediately rushed over. I know my father still had some feelings for my mother, but because she tolerated her parasitic relatives too much, he finally had to divorce. I want to take this opportunity to let my father completely cut off all attachment to my mother. Father pushed the door open and walked in. When he saw his mother, he paused a bit. “Everyone is present, so make it clear.” Mother did not bother to glance at father, her face remained calm: "I believe that following nature will have fair results." I followed her words and continued: "It's Trang Tam Tam. During recess, she scolded me for being an impolite lady." Sure enough, in the next second, his father's face immediately darkened. 7 "Trang Tam Tam was the one who opened her mouth to scold the other person first, this is her fault." I said decisively. Mom also heard me clearly, frowned slightly but didn't say anything else. Trang Tam Tam expected her mother to defend her, but she gritted her teeth and stood up to protest: "I... I just blurted out a sentence! Yet she dared to throw water on me! At noon, she even threatened me, saying she would throw boiling water on me!" Mother sat up straight, frowning, clearly not liking her distorted, aggressive expression. "Tam Tam, I don't like to argue. In this matter, who is right and who is wrong will be determined in your heart. If she doesn't admit it, then whatever you say will be useless. Miss Tran will return your innocence." Having said that, she had no intention of siding with Trang Tam Tam. Hearing those familiar words, I almost burst out laughing on the spot. As for Trang Tam Tam, she was so angry that she almost went crazy. It was obvious that I splashed her with water, and she tripped and fell down in front of everyone, losing all face. Yet my mother only knows how to say "fairness is in the human heart" and "follow nature". Seeing the deadlock situation, teacher Tran guessed that my mother did not want to get involved, so she quickly calmed down: "Okay, both parents have agreed, so this matter is over. Let's be in the same class, let's get along in the future." The teacher wanted everything to go smoothly, but Trang Tam Tam was not willing. "Why?! It was she who threw water at me and made me fall, how many people saw! Why do you just let it go?!" Even though my father also saw that my mother handled things somewhat lightly, he always stood by my side. “So why did you spread rumors everywhere on the first day of school?” "No! I didn't say she was! I didn't lie!" Trang Tam Tam exclaimed impatiently. But mom didn't want to stay any longer. "Okay, then let's go with the flow. We'll go home." She coldly turned around and left. Trang Tam Tam couldn't help but glare at me angrily, then followed her mother and left. On the way home, my father didn't say a word. “Dad, did I do right or wrong today?” I turned to ask him. I proactively asked. Father frowned: "If it's really you who threw water, then you were wrong. "The teachers I hired to teach you, didn't they ever teach you that - if you don't like someone, you shouldn't easily show it?" I smiled: “Of course I teach. But dad, if you were mom, what would you do? My father frowned deeper: "At least let me accept the consequences, at least apologize." I nodded: “Dad also knows mom's personality well. It is because of her attitude that these relatives dare to suck our blood so blatantly. Now she also helps the Cui family do many things..." Father heard the hidden meaning in my words and immediately interrupted: "I know what you want to say, in all my life - Trang - I have never gone back to the old path. "Also, how do you know about the things in the Cui family..." I smiled, my voice full of excitement: "Dad devoted all his time to raising you, of course you must have some achievements." I put my chin on my hand, my eyes shining with excitement. “Dad, do you want to try being... a billionaire?” Come home. I opened my phone, there were many messages. Trinh Qua and a few other friends all texted me to ask how things were going, or invited me out. These things are not surprising. What surprised me was - Hac Lam Uyen sent me many messages. 【I heard that someone is causing you trouble.】 【Do you need my help?】 …… 【I can consider getting engaged, let's talk about it tomorrow.】 I almost jumped out of excitement when I saw the last news. Tomorrow is the weekend, after we finish talking, maybe we can go on a date. 8 After setting the time and place to meet, I suppressed my excitement and began contacting Trinh Qua and the others. The Thoi family is a huge force, just relying on our Trang family is not enough. But don't forget, I still have friends. In this upper class, as long as someone has a little ability, everyone risks their lives to find a way to rise up. I just need to give them a chance, a condition, a little news - they will know what to do.
