Chapter 8 — Queen of Startups

I printed out all the documents and kept them in a safe. They will be important evidence to overthrow Song Dan later, but now is not the time. I have to wait for him to really take action, so that the people - the evidence - the things - are all - enough. On the weekend, at a family meal, Tong Dan, who rarely appears, suddenly showed up. Since his shares were cut, he rarely participates in family events. Today he was different from usual, even smiling at me — if that twisted expression could be called a smile. “Miss Giang,” he deliberately used honorifics, “I heard that you changed the medical team?” I smiled: "Yes, my father doesn't feel secure, so he specially invited a team from America." The corner of Tong Dan's mouth twitched slightly: "So... where will I give birth?" “At home.” Tong Nam Lang chimed in, "The delivery room has been prepared, it's more comfortable and safer than the hospital." I saw Tong Dan's hand tremble slightly, but he quickly regained control: "That's great... I'm looking forward to the birth of the children." “Thank you for your concern.” I gently said, "Oh right, why didn't Ms. To come?" Tong Dan's face immediately darkened: "She... is not feeling well." I pretended to be worried: "Should I invite the family doctor to come over and take a look? Pregnant women can't afford to be careless." “Pregnant woman?” Tong Nam Lang looked at me in surprise, "To Nhuoc Hang is pregnant?" Tong Dan's face turned pale: "No... it's not... she's just..." "I heard that last week she went to the obstetrics department." I said softly, "I thought there was good news." Tong Nam Lang frowned: "Tong Dan, what's going on?" Tong Dan's forehead was covered in cold sweat: "It's just... a routine check-up..." I just in time changed the subject: "Okay, let's eat first. Talking about pregnancy makes young people shy." At the dining table, underground waves surged. Tong Dan's eyes kept glancing at me, full of resentment and... fear. He is probably worried that his plan to have a child will fail, and he is even more afraid that To Nhuoc Hang's scandal will be exposed. After the meal, Tong Nam Lang received a phone call. I used the excuse of being tired due to pregnancy to go to my room to rest, but was stopped by Tong Dan at the corner of the stairs. “What do you know?” He lowered his voice and questioned, his eyes flashing dangerously. I pretended to be confused: "What do you mean?" “Stop playing dumb!” He grabbed my wrist, "Nhuoc Hang's matter, also..." "Let go of my hand, ma'am!" The guard's voice rang out from behind, and in the next second, Tong Dan was pressed tightly against the wall. I rubbed my wrist and looked at him coldly: "Tong Dan, what are you doing?" “You will regret it, Giang Man Man.” Tong Dan gritted his teeth, "I swear, you will definitely regret it!" The guard looked at me, waiting for instructions. I shook my head slightly: "Let him go. Tong Dan, I advise you to calm down. An agitator is no different from a devil." Tong Dan adjusted his clothes, finally glared at me, then turned and left. Looking at his staggering back, I knew he had fallen into a dead end. But the wild beasts are cornered - even more dangerous. Returning to the bedroom, I locked the door, took out a compact electric shock device from under my pillow - given to me by a private detective, strong enough to knock out a grown man. Tong Dan's madness has exceeded expectations, I can't help but be more careful. Outside the window, dusk fell, dyeing their entire villa Tong becomes blood red. I gently caressed my rising belly, feeling every movement of the four little creatures inside. “Don't be afraid, I will protect you.” I whispered a pledge, “No one will harm us.” The game of revenge has reached a critical moment. Tong Dan has already revealed his killing intent, and my counterattack — has only just begun. In the early morning of the day I turned thirty-two weeks pregnant, a sudden, intense pain woke me from my sleep. I reflexively put my hand on my stomach, and my palm immediately felt an unusual tightness - it was a uterine contraction, more intense and intense. "Nam Lang..." I shook my husband awake, my voice trembling with pain, "I... I'm about to give birth..." Tong Nam Lang immediately woke up and immediately pressed the emergency call button at the head of the bed. The entire Tong family manor was as bright as day, and the sirens rang out, waking everyone up. “Born two weeks earlier than expected…” While helping me get dressed, Tong Nam Lang spoke into the walkie-talkie, “Activate the emergency plan immediately, contact the medical team!” I gritted my teeth, cold sweat broke out on my forehead. “Don't be afraid, the American medical team will be there within twenty minutes.” Tong Nam Lang picked me up and walked quickly towards the prepared home delivery room, "Everything will be fine." I clung tightly to his collar, suddenly remembering something: "Wait... my phone... brought with me..." Tong Nam Lang was momentarily stunned, but still turned around to get the phone. I breathed a sigh of relief—in my previous life, this day he went out and forgot his phone, missing an important call, causing heavy losses to the company. In this life, I have to make sure he is always ready to take that call. The delivery room was ready, the temperature was moderate, the equipment was complete, it looked like a high-end delivery room in a hospital. Tong Nam Lang gently placed me on the bed, and the nurses immediately conducted an examination. “The cervix has dilated four centimeters, we must give birth immediately.” Chief obstetrician Catherine declared after the examination, “Qudruplets are high-risk premature births, requiring immediate preparation of the NICU (neonatal intensive care unit).” Tong Nam Lang's face was serious: "Do all we can to ensure the safety of both mother and children." Another contraction came, I was in so much pain that my eyes went black, but I still tried to stay awake. Not right… something is wrong… according to my constitution, it should not be time to give birth… “Nam Lang…” I held his hand with difficulty, “Check… everyone who entered the manor today… especially the medical team…” Tong Nam Lang frowned: “I doubt…” “Please…” Blue veins appeared on my forehead, “For the children…” Tong Nam Lang immediately turned around and ordered the bodyguard captain: “Block the manor, check everyone's identity! Especially the newly arrived medical staff!” The captain received orders to leave. I temporarily felt a little more reassured, but the pain in my abdomen became more and more intense, making it almost impossible for me to think. "Madam, push hard! You can see the first baby's head!" Dr. Catherine cheered. I gritted my teeth and gave it my all. After a searing pain, the baby's resounding cry rang out. “It's a boy!” The nurse happily exclaimed, "Even though the baby was born prematurely, the cry was very strong!" I smiled weakly, but before I could be happy, a new contraction came. Quadruple pregnancy means four times After labor, my strength was quickly depleted. “The second child is also out, it's a boy!” At that moment, there was a commotion outside. The bodyguard captain rushed in, his face extremely ugly: "Mr. Tong! We discovered a person pretending to be a nurse in the dressing room! She was carrying needles and drugs of unknown origin!" Tong Nam Lang's face immediately changed: "Interrogate immediately to see who is behind!" “I already told you, it's…” The team leader hesitantly glanced at me, “It's young master Tong Dan.” Even though I had expected it, my heart still trembled a beat. Tong Dan indeed acted, and was even more cruel than in his previous life—not impulsively due to drunkenness, but a planned murder! “That ungrateful child!” – Tong Nam Lang's voice was full of anger, he immediately turned around and tried to rush out. “Wait!” – I grabbed his hand with all my strength, "There are two more children... I need you here..." Tong Nam Lang pulled away a bit, but finally nodded: "Once I've finished dealing with this side, I'll personally go find that bad guy, he can't escape!" The birth continued, but the atmosphere became much more tense. Bodyguards are strictly guarded outside the delivery room, and even the medical team is closely monitored. I was exhausted, but I didn't dare relax at all. “The third child is a girl!” Right at the moment the third baby cried, Tong Nam Lang's phone suddenly rang. He was about to turn it off, but when he saw the incoming number, his expression changed slightly: "It's an urgent call from a Swiss bank." "Listen..." I whispered, "Very important..." Tong Nam Lang glanced at me suspiciously, but still picked up the phone: "Hello? What?!" – His expression changed from surprise to indignation, "Immediately freeze that account! I will have someone handle it immediately!" After hanging up the phone, Tong Nam Lang's face turned terrifyingly gloomy: "Tong Dan is transferring assets abroad and also forged your signature." – He gritted his teeth, "It's planning to escape!"
