Chapter 4 — Single Dog Boss Becomes My Husband

This is who you really are. The distance between us is perhaps even greater than I thought. I unconsciously avoided his eyes. Near the end of work, he called me into his office again. “Tomorrow is the weekend, are you free?” "… Idle." “Come with me somewhere.” — his voice did not allow refusal. The next day, he drove me to a cemetery. He led me to a tombstone. “This is my mother.” – Luc Tram Uyen's voice was very soft. I was stunned. "She passed away when I was in college. During her lifetime, her biggest wish was to see me get married and have a stable career." - he looked at the photo on the tombstone, his eyes distant - "My parents were in a commercial marriage, there was no love at all. She was not happy her whole life. Therefore, I used to be very opposed to the so-called marriage." He turned his head, his hot eyes looking at me. "I put all my energy into work, thinking that as long as the company was strong enough, I could escape all constraints. I thought I didn't need anyone... until you appeared." "Lam Mac, I always unconsciously look at you, pay attention to you. Seeing you upset because of me, I find it interesting. But when I see you being pursued by other men, I'm crazy jealous." "I use work to make things difficult for you, wanting you to see me more and stay with me longer. I admit, that way of doing things is both childish and miserable." "Lam Mac," - he grabbed my hand, every word was extremely formal - "I previously read your post online, saying you wanted to marry a CEO. Now, I - this CEO - officially propose to you." "I'm serious. I want you to be my real, only wife. Do you... agree?" His words were like a bomb exploding in my head. I looked into those sincere, hot eyes, saw the tension and anticipation in the bottom of his eyes... all my hesitations, all my retreats disappeared. I burst into tears and nodded: "I agree." 8 The next day after I agreed to the proposal, he immediately took me home to meet my father. The Luc family's mansion is a majestic and solemn ancient Chinese house. Luc Tram Uyen's father - Chairman Luc - is a stern old man, just sitting on the grand master's chair exudes an aura that others do not dare to underestimate. His eyes looked at me like he was weighing each ounce of pork. "My background is ordinary, my working ability is also average. Tram Uyen, is this the person you chose?" – his words were full of contempt. I tightened the hem of my shirt. "Dad," - Luc Tram Uyen pulled me back, covering my face, his voice firm - "Lam Mac is the person I have chosen. Today I brought her home, not to ask your permission, but to inform you." “I…!” – Chairman Luc was so angry that he slammed the table. "My marriage, I decide for myself." – His eyes were cold. Having finished speaking, he held my hand, without looking back, left the Luc family's mansion. In the car, I looked at his tense face and felt a little worried. "No problem." – he held my hand – “From now on, we will live for ourselves.” Looking at him, my heart is both warm and bitter. This man always uses his own way to shield me from the wind and rain. But the story doesn't stop there. Chairman Luc froze all of Luc Tram Uyen's bank cards, revoked his company management rights, and publicly announced that he would take an indefinite leave of absence. After just one night, Luc Tram Uyen went from being a high-ranking president to a "loser". "Chu Hieu Hieu frantically called me: "Mac Mac, what now? President Luc left the whole country for you!” But I was strangely calm. When I found him, he was in my small apartment, clumsily tying his apron, struggling to learn how to cook stir-fried tomatoes with eggs. Seeing me return, he felt a little embarrassed and coughed softly: "I... made a few things temporarily." Looking at the pink apron with the image of a baby bear that didn't fit him, and his face covered in flour, I suddenly burst out laughing. I walked over and hugged him from behind: "Luc Tram Uyen." “Um?” “Do you regret it?” He turned around, hugged me, bent down and kissed me lightly on the forehead. “Before, the company was everything to me. Now I realize… you are everything.” – he looked straight into my eyes and said seriously – “Without Luc Thi Group, I am still Luc Tram Uyen. But without you… not.” Then his voice changed slightly, the corner of his lips curled up into the familiar confident smile of a CEO: "Besides... do you think your husband is that useless?" 9 Luc Tram Uyen's "counterattack" came faster than I expected, and was also stronger than I thought. On the third day after being "swept out the door", Ky Ngon and Tham Duc came to me at the same time. Ky Ngon pushed up his glasses and said frankly: "Miss Lam Mac, I am willing to use 10% of Ky Diem Technology's shares to invite Mr. Luc Tram Uyen to be a strategic advisor." Tham Duc was even more direct, giving me a file: "This is my personal investment company, transferred to your name. Tell him, whatever you want to do, I'll invest." I was completely stunned. “Why… did you guys help him?” Ky Ngon calmly replied: "In terms of business, Luc Tram Uyen's ability is worthy of this price. Personally, you chose him, I respect your choice. If he is good, then you can be good.” Tham Duc just glanced at me, then calmly said: "I don't want to see you sad." When I took these two documents to Luc Tram Uyen, he was standing on the balcony calling, his voice was calm, as if he was directing some plan. Hanging up, he saw what was in my hand and raised his eyebrows: "They acted really quickly." “You knew before?” “Look at it like that.” – he smiled softly – “In the business world there are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests. Besides… you just sold them a favor.” That's when I understood, everything... was in his calculations. He used his own future to bet on a tomorrow with me. The following month, I witnessed a commercial genius turn things around from the abyss. Luc Tram Uyen took advantage of Ky Ngon's technology and Tham Duc's capital, targeting and taking down many emerging industries in succession, at an almost crazy speed, building his own commercial empire. After Luc Tram Uyen left, Luc Thi Group's shares plummeted due to a series of wrong decisions, falling into a serious crisis. In the end, Chairman Luc himself had to come find him and invite him back. That day, I accompanied him back to the Luc family mansion. Chairman Luc looked at him and looked much older. “I won.” – he sighed. “I never wanted to compete with you, Dad.” – Luc Tram Uyen's voice was calm – "I just want to prove that I have the ability to protect the company and the person I love." He held my hand and looked straight into the Chairman's eyes Luc, every word clearly: "Now, I want to marry her. I hope to receive your blessing." Chairman Luc was silent for a long time, then finally waved his hand: "Young people's matters are for you to decide." This concession means we have been acknowledged. Stepping out of the Luc family's house, the sunlight just spread gold across the yard. Suddenly, Luc Tram Uyen knelt down on one knee, took out a velvet box from her pocket, and opened it - inside was a sparkling diamond ring. "Miss Lam Mac," - he raised his head to look at me, his eyes filled with gentleness - "no one can stop us now. Are you willing to officially become my wife, Mrs. Luc?" People passing by stopped and looked at us with admiration. I smiled, but tears fell again, and nodded strongly: "I agree, Mr. Luc." He put the ring on my finger, stood up and hugged me tightly. I know, from this moment, my life will enter a completely new chapter. Post content: "Thank you everyone. The single dog boss that I used to criticize online is now my husband. He will buy me my favorite strawberry cake, will stand in front of me when I am bullied, will fight the whole world for me. He may not be perfect, but he is the most right person for me. P.S. Now we have Saturdays, Sundays off, and a long, long paid vacation for the week. honeymoon. @all hired workers, I wish everyone to soon escape the sea of suffering and find their happiness." The article that was posted immediately exploded. Below are all comments: "Oh my god!" “What kind of fairy tale scenario is this!” “I'm so jealous, tomorrow I'll go online and curse my boss!” “The OP must be happy!” I leaned on Luc Tram Uyen's lap, looking at the blessings continuously appearing on the screen, the corners of my eyes curved, and I smiled brightly. “Lady Luc,” – he bent down and gently kissed my hair – “what are you laughing at?” "Laugh about our story. The beginning is ridiculous, the process is scary, but the ending isn't bad either." “No,” – he looked at me, his eyes as deep as the ocean – “this is not the end.” He gently placed my hand on his chest. “This… is just the beginning.” Yes, this is just the beginning of our story. I remember that drunken night last year, that stupid post. I never thought that a heartless complaint would bring me such a magical relationship. Perhaps, that is the most beautiful arrangement of fate - Meeting the right person at the right time, then spending a lifetime loving each other.
