Chapter 1 — The Day I Revoke Eighteen Patents, Is Also the Day I Let You Go

Forced by My Husband to Give Up 300,000 Yuan for Green Tea, I Revoked 18 Patents, He Immediately Panic At the celebration party, my husband forced me to give up the 300,000 Yuan bonus to his assistant. On the outside, her eyes were red and she kept saying she didn't dare accept it. But on my wrist was a rose gold watch that I couldn't even bring myself to buy. I quietly signed the confirmation, took the microphone and calmly said:

"First, I don't need this bonus."

"Second, the eighteen core research results that I licensed to the company for free use... as of tonight, I officially revoke them all."

"Nam Chi, come up here."

Co Thua Nghien's voice rang out from the microphone on stage. He stood under the light, the buttons on his shirt cuffs were neatly buttoned, without any carelessness. Tonight, he was General Director Co, surrounded by everyone cheering him on. And I sit at the main table. As soon as they saw me standing up, the people sitting next to me immediately took the initiative to move aside. Today is the celebration party of Van Khai Medical Company. MC just announced the recipient of the Contribution of the Year Award, which is me. Tham Nam Chi. Bonus 300,000 yuan. Even the trophy is engraved with my name. Because it was the core plan I chaired that helped the company win the most important project this year, doubling the business value. I slowly stood up. The hem of the skirt gently glided over the chair leg. Co Thua Nghien smiled and reached out to me.

"Everyone knows, Nam Chi is the hardest worker in the company."

Applause immediately rang out throughout the auditorium. I looked at his hand holding mine. Five years of marriage. Eight years together building a career. From an unknown department head, I have accompanied him step by step to the position he is today. I stayed up all night working on a plan. I faced all doubts for him. It is also me who gradually helps Van Khai stand firmly in front of the entire industry. Co Thua Nghien held up the trophy.

"This award belongs to her."

"No one has an opinion."

Below, someone immediately shouted loudly:

"Director Tham totally deserves it!"

Just as I was about to raise my hand to receive the trophy... He placed the trophy back on the tray.

"But Nam Chi is my wife."

His tone suddenly changed.

"We are husband and wife..."

"There's no need to divide it so clearly."

The entire hall instantly fell silent. I raised my head to look at him. On Co Thua Nghien's lips, the gentle smile remained.

"Tieu Hoa also had a hard time this year."

As he spoke, he turned his head to look down at the front row. Sitting there was his assistant. Bach Tieu Hoa. She wore a pure white dress, her eyes were red as if she was about to cry. The rose gold watch on her wrist gently reflected the light, sparkling to the point of blinding eyes. I recognize that watch. Last month, on my birthday, Co Thua Nghien said that watch was too ostentatious and did not suit me. Turns out it's not inappropriate. But there is someone else who is more suitable.

"Tieu Hoa worked tirelessly for a few days because of the project, and the father in the family was suddenly hospitalized."

Co Thua Nghien looked towards everyone.

"Nam Chi and I have already discussed, this 300,000 yuan bonus will be transferred to Tieu Hoa."

After speaking, he squeezed my hand.

"Are you sure everyone has no idea?"

The whole hall was not who spoke up? I heard someone talking in a low voice:

"General Manager Co really knows how to treat people."

"But Director Tham's face is pale."

"Assistant Bach really knows how to cry."

Bach Tieu Hoa stood up. She covered her mouth, tears falling smoothly.

"General Manager Co, Director Tham, I can't accept it."

The mouth says it can't be accepted, but the feet have stepped onto the stage.

"This credit belongs to Director Tham. I just did what an assistant should do."

Co Thua Nghien called me softly: I didn't move. He leaned close to my ear.

"There are so many people tonight, save my face a little."

Bach Tieu Hoa walked in front of me, his voice trembling:

"Director Tham, don't misunderstand, I really don't have any other intentions."

I looked at her. Besides the watch on her wrist, there was also a small diamond bracelet. That's something that Co Thua Nghien's assistant couldn't buy for a whole month. The legal affairs manager took the documents and walked up to the stage.

"Director Tham, the agreement has been prepared."

I glanced over. Confirmation of voluntary transfer of bonus. My ID number, the last four digits of my bank card, and even the signature location were already labeled. Really fully prepared. Co Thua Nghien gently squeezed my hand. I received the pen. Hundreds of pairs of eyes below the stage were looking at me. Some people pity me. Some people are excited. There are also people waiting to see my jokes. I bowed my head and signed the three words Tham Nam Chi. Bach Tieu Hoa immediately burst into tears.

"Thank you, Director Tham, thank you, General Director Co."

She opened her arms to hug me. I took a step aside. She missed the hug, almost unable to keep the expression on her face. Co Thua Nghien frowned. I returned the pen to the legal department. Then took the microphone from the MC. The smile on Co Thua Nghien's face faded.

"Nam Chi, what do you want to say?"

I looked down at the stage.

"Taking this opportunity, I would also like to announce two things."

Co Thua Nghien reached out to grab the microphone.

"Don't do anything wrong."

I avoid it.

"Don't worry, General Manager Co. It's all public business."

I smiled at everyone below.

"First, the 300,000 yuan bonus, I voluntarily transferred to Bach Tieu Hoa."

Sparse applause rang out. Bach Tieu Hoa bit her lip, tears still hanging on her face, but in her eyes she couldn't hide the proud look. Co Thua Nghien breathed a sigh of relief. I stopped for two seconds.

"Second, the eighteen core achievements that I personally licensed for free to Van Khai Medical Company to use, from tonight, all licensing rights will officially end."

The whole hall immediately fell silent. Co Thua Nghien's smile stiffened on his face. Bach Tieu Hoa's tears also stopped falling. A person in the boardroom row stood up.

"Tham Nam Chi, what did you just say?"
