Chapter 8 — Silly Women Are Pampered

Elder Chu Chieu finally admitted that he wore a wig. He also invested in a high-end wig brand. The ad was written by him:

“You can be bald, but you can't lose.”

On the first day of launch, sales exploded. Second brother Chu Lam took his driver's license exam for the third time. Still didn't pass. The coach called me and said:

“Miss Chu, your second brother has too much imagination when driving.”

I asked:

“What do you mean?”

The coach was silent for three seconds.

“He backed the car straight into the driving school's practice yard next door.”

Now, every day, dad comes home to eat on time. Mother also no longer maintains the arrogance of a wealthy lady. Recently, she loves short videos, sending me nutrition links every day. The latter title is even more absurd than the former.

“Women drink a lot of warm water, rich husbands chase after them and pamper them.”

“Every day, patting this place for three minutes, your mother-in-law will take the initiative to buy you a house.”

"Surprised! It turns out you can't stick a feather duster into antiques."

The last post was posted by herself. As for Tieu Nghien. He is still a dominating president. It's just that the image of the domineering president has almost been shattered. In the eyes of others, he is cold, restrained, not close to anyone. In my eyes, every day when taking the elevator to the twenty-third floor, he mumbles the multiplication table. One time he had just read "seven eight fifty six" when the elevator suddenly vibrated. He held my hand without expression.

“Chu Mien.”

“Yes?”

“What is seven times nine?”

I couldn't help but laugh:

“Sixty-three.”

He breathed a sigh of relief:

“Okay.”

I asked:

“Were you scared to death just now?”

He calmly said:

“No.”

【Hard mouth.】 【My palms are sweaty.】 He looked at me:

“So hold on a little tighter.”

I was stunned. Then slowly squeeze his hand. The elevator door opens. Sunlight shines in from the end of the hallway. I suddenly felt that this fallen tyrannical CEO world didn't seem to be that bad. In the evening, the Chu family held a family meeting. The topic is Tieu Nghien and I's engagement. Dad seriously said:

“Mian Mien, if you don't like it, I will immediately cancel the marriage.”

Mom nodded:

“Men can find others, girls only have one.”

Eldest brother:

"I've investigated the Tieu family's assets, and I'm reluctantly worthy of you."

Second brother:

“I don't agree.”

I looked at him:

“Why?”

Chu Lam said painfully:

“Last time Tieu Nghien accused you of driving without a license.”

Tieu Nghien calmly said:

“I don't have a degree.”

Chu Lam:

“But I only drive electric cars for the elderly in residential areas!”

Tieu Nghien:

“And yet you still knocked down three trees.”

Dad was terrified:

“Three?”

Mom was terrified:

“Are the trees okay?”

Chu Lam:

“Mom, I am your son.”

Mother:

“The trees are innocent.”

I laughed so much that I lay down on the table. Tieu Nghien sat next to him and asked in a low voice:

“Is it that much fun?”

I nodded.

“Fun.”

In the past, I always thought that life was about constantly going to work, constantly being patient, constantly pretending that you were okay. Later I found out, it turns out that someone can hear your heart. Hear your fears, hear your resentments, hear your incoherent criticisms. After that, they didn't leave. They just laughed then said:

“Then let's turn this trash plot into a comedy.”

I raised my glass of juice and solemnly declared:

“From today onwards, I want to change my name.”

The whole family was startled. Dad asked nervously:

“Change to what?”

I said:

“Chu Niu Ho Loc Mien.”

Tieu Nghien was silent for two seconds:

“Why?”

I hit the table:

“Because I am no longer the evil woman I used to be.”

“The current me is the stupid woman Niu Ho Loc.”

Chu Lam was the first to clap:

“Good!”

Mom was the second person to clap:

“There's momentum!”

The eldest brother seriously thought:

“Is it necessary to register a trademark?”

Father burst into tears:

“Your daughter is truly cultured.”

Tieu Nghien bowed his head and smiled. I see.

“What are you laughing at?”

He said:

“Nothing.”

I squinted:

“Do you think I'm childish?”

He looked at me, there was a gentle light in his eyes.

“I feel like you are very good.”

My face suddenly became hot. 【It's done.】 【Who can stand this?】 Tieu Nghien held my hand and said very softly:

“It's okay if you can't stand it.”

“I'll help you.”

The whole family coughed at the same time. Chu Lam shouted loudly:

“There is still an unmarried young man here!”

Mom covered his mouth:

“Shut up, don't bother your sister's love.”

The eldest brother silently adjusted his wig:

“Agree.”

Dad's eyes were red:

“It's okay to be happy all the time.”

I looked at the people sitting around the table. Looking at this messy, noisy family, it honestly puts me in my heart. I suddenly felt like there was nothing wrong with turning into an evil woman. Just the plot is bad enough. We will correct it. Just life is absurd enough. We will smile and continue living. After all, who said that tyrannical CEO stories cannot be turned into comedy skits? Who said evil women can't have their own happy ending? Anyway, I, Chu Mien, don't believe it. I only believe one thing. Life is already miserable enough. When you can live happily, absolutely do not try to stay serious. END OF STORY.
