Chapter 5 — Thanh Mai Truc Ma My Family Turned into Sick Kieu

At this point, the crime is clear. The flashy cover was torn apart. Co Ngon Tham seemed to go crazy. From nowhere, he pulled out a knife and rushed in wildly, swinging it wildly. "It's not me! It's not me! The video is fake! They all lied to you! It's all fake!" Everyone around quickly dispersed, and Luc Ky Ngon also took me to a safe place. Upon receiving the news, the police quickly arrived at the scene, evacuated the crowd and made arrests. Tan Nhi - the person who was previously locked up by Mr. Tan for drug treatment, suddenly rushed out. "Co Ngon Tham! I consider you my brother, yet you hurt me like this!" “You won't die in peace!” Tan Nhi and Co Ngon Tham rushed at each other like two crazy people, madly crashing into each other like they didn't need their lives. In just a moment, Co Ngon Tham became a bloody beehive. A spectacular dog-bite-dog scene. ⸻ 12 When the crowd gradually dispersed, I held Luc Ky Ngon's hand tightly. Luc Ky Ngon hugged me to avoid being pushed by the crowd. Under the escort of bodyguards, I finally got on the bus. “Scared?” “A little.” After all, it was the first time I saw such a bloody scene with my own eyes, and actually I was still a little scared. Luc Ky Ngon reached out and hugged me, gently patting my back, gently comforting me like when he was a child. I remember at that time my parents were busy with work so they didn't have time to pick me up. After school, Luc Ky Ngon always played basketball with his friends for an hour before returning. I was lazy to wait so I usually left first. Once while walking alone on the street, I suddenly felt someone following me. If I slow down, that person also slows down. Whichever direction I turn, that person also turns. I was so scared that I secretly texted Luc Ky Ngon. On the way home, there was a deserted alley. I didn't dare continue walking in the direction home, but ran to the crowded main street. Unable to go home, I could only walk around the grocery stores along the road, waiting and hoping for Luc Ky Ngon to come quickly. I didn't expect that guy to be so bold, in the middle of a crowded street, but still dare to pull my hand. I tried to resist, but how could a little girl's strength be compared to a middle-aged man? I could only call for help, but that guy kept saying that I was a girl who ran away from home. Passersby don't know what's real or fake so they hesitate to intervene. I cried until I couldn't make a sound. Some people found it strange and tried to pull me out. That man was still trying to hold on to me and not let go, at that moment a briefcase flew towards him and hit him straight on the head. “Luc Ky Ngon!” Later, when this matter was taken to the police station, I trembled and threw myself into Luc Ky Ngon's arms and burst into tears. Luc Ky Ngon also patted my back to comfort me like now. The fear in my heart gradually disappeared, then I slowly fell asleep. ⸻ 13 I fell into a long dream again. I returned to my 18th birthday. My mother gave me a beautiful long red dress. I love it and don't let go, immediately change it and happily spin it around. Mom stood next to me, smiling widely and saying: "As expected of my daughter, she's so beautiful." “Congratulations to our Dieu Dieu officially entering the ranks of adults!” I hugged my mother and kissed her hard. “Thank you, dear mom!” “Ah, that's enough, it's all saliva.” I was so happy that I ran around the house to show off and then quickly went out to find Luc Ky Ngon. Between It's a hot summer, but Luc Ky Ngon is at home wearing a sun mask and long-sleeved clothes and pants. No wonder my skin is so white. I thought so but didn't pay attention. “Luc Ky Ngon, where is my gift?” “Hey.” Luc Ky Ngon took out a delicate box from his pocket and gave it to me. Inside is a very beautiful necklace, the pendant is a sun shape inlaid with a ruby stone from a Rubik's cube, perfect for matching the red dress I'm wearing. “Hey, what is this?” At the bottom of the box there is also a small amulet. "This is... the peace talisman of Han Son Pagoda? Is it the kind that requires you to kneel from the foot of the mountain to the top to be lucky enough to ask for it? Is it only given to predestined people?" “It's not that bad... it's just... convenient to take.” Looking at Luc Ky Ngon's red ear as if it was about to drip blood, I didn't hesitate to immediately remove his mask. In the middle of his forehead was a bruise, clearly caused by bowing. I pulled up his pant legs, all over his legs were big and small scratches, especially his knees were swollen. “I'll take you to the hospital.” I frantically pulled him away, but Luc Ky Ngon held me back. "I've had it checked out, it looks serious, but it's actually not that painful." I was heartbroken to the point of tears. "Are you stupid? You don't believe in Buddha, what are you praying for?" “Didn't you say you wanted it?” That was just when I was surfing the video and saw a precious-looking peace amulet so I just joked. I didn't expect that Luc Ky Ngon would actually go get it for me... "Hey, my little princess, why did she drop a pearl today? If you really feel heartbroken because of me... I order you, from now on, you must carry this peace charm with you and not take it off even for a second." I cried and said, “Okay.” Luc Ky Ngon gently stroked my head, wiping away the tears at the corner of my eyes. In the blink of an eye, the world turned upside down, and I returned to the moment I committed suicide. I saw myself holding a knife, like a machine cutting into my wrist, blood pouring out with each strike. But I didn't seem to feel any pain, my eyes were empty and calm like the surface of dead water. I rushed forward to grab the knife, thinking it would be like every time before, I couldn't touch it. Unexpectedly, this time I actually pulled the knife out. Looking at the real knife in my hand, I was dumbfounded for a second, then hurriedly found the medical box. I frantically tried to stop the bleeding, but the bleeding just wouldn't stop. I was so worried that I spun around, tears flowing out like broken chains. “Emergency, call an ambulance immediately!”
