Chapter 5 — The Enemy's New Wife

5

“Or…”

Co Thua Dich's eyes darkened.

“Tong Yen, can you now represent the entire Song family to declare war on my Co family?”

Tong Yen's hand that was squeezing my wrist trembled uncontrollably. He has no way to continue deceiving himself and others. Co Thua Dich's words made it very clear. I am his wife — the one he married today.

“… General Manager Co, there was a misunderstanding, my friend and I just… recognized the wrong person.”

In the midst of everyone's interlaced eyes, Tong Yen had difficulty letting go of my hand, her voice almost had to grit her teeth to get out. Unlike Co Thua Dich, he has not yet taken over the Song family. With the current situation of the Tong family, the Co family is someone he cannot offend. La Chi Chi had completely changed color at this time. She lost control and shouted:

"No way! Co Thua Dich, are you sure your eyes are not blind? How can it be Lam Nhiem? How can she be your wife?"

“Are you crazy? There are so many beautiful girls out there who don't get married, but would marry something like her— Ah!!”

The harsh sound of slapping rang out. La Chi Chi was strangled and pinned to the floor by the Co family's bodyguards, unable to utter another word.

"Sorry everyone, I made you laugh. When I met such a stupid woman, I couldn't control my itchy hands."

Co Thua Dich received the handkerchief from the bodyguard, leisurely wiped his hands clean, then smiled again.

"You all know that I have always had a bad temper. Anyone who offends my wife will be dealt with personally."

“Does anyone else have anything else to say?”

No one dared say a word. Tong Yen's brothers, who were still arrogantly defending La Chi Chi, were now cowering in the corner, cold sweat pouring out like a bath. Because they don't have the Song family, the Co family... they can't mess with it. Not until the wedding started. The new wedding hall gradually filled with laughter. Amid the sounds of congratulations resounding throughout the hall, Co Thua Dich personally held my hand and walked up to the stage, putting the ring on me. He took the microphone from the host, his eyes stopping especially at the corner of the room:

"Everyone, please remember my wife's name - Lam Nhiem. Offending her means offending me, Co Thua Dich."

"What happened today, I don't want a second time."

“Is it true, young master of the Song family?”

In the corner, Tong Yen's knuckles turned white. It took me a long time to raise my glass of wine and say one word hoarsely: "Yes." The wedding ceremony is halfway done. La Chi Chi was escorted away by the Co family's bodyguards. The La family saw with their own eyes that her entire body was covered in injuries, but no one dared to say anything. After the bodyguard left. La Chi Chi's father knew what was going on, despite her screaming and begging, he still slapped her hard. And on the spot, cut off the father-son relationship. Tong Yen's friends also could not escape. After recovering from their injuries, their family immediately sent them abroad at night. After the ceremony, right outside the restroom, Tong Yen stopped me. He reeked of alcohol, his eyes were red:

“Why is that, Lam Nhiem?”

"It's only been three months... Lam Nhiem, you know very well the relationship between me and Co Thua Dich, why did you deliberately marry him?"

His voice cracked and choked.

"You're taking revenge on me, right? Lam Nhiem, I hate you because this cold war took too long, I hate you for leaving me alone that day, I hate you for being biased." La Chi Chi… Lam Nhiem, you won.”

Tong Yen shed tears.

"I regret it... I really regret it..."

"Lam Nhiem, you don't love Co Thua Dich, right?"

“Let's get a divorce.”

“I will change. Lam Nhiem, I don't like you smoking, please quit. I will keep my distance from La Chi Chi. Let's stop arguing. Can you give me another chance, Lam Nhiem..."

Look at Tong Yen's broken appearance right now. I don't feel anything. During the past four years, if you opened your mouth to ask me once, I would come back. But in this world, there is no "what if".

“It's late, Tong Yen.”

I'm already married.

“You are wrong. I love Co Thua Dich.”

Tong Yen was dumbfounded, "No way..."

“Lam Nhiem? Just three months…”

“Not three months. But four years.”

After four years of constant arguments and coldness, my feelings for him were exhausted. I won't be stuck in that emotional part anymore.

“The fact that I married Co Thua Dich has nothing to do with you, Tong Yen. Stop being so self-centered.”

I pushed him away, keeping my distance.

"Lam Nhiem, are you still blaming me for being too close to La Chi Chi... because..."

“That's enough, Tong Yen.” I interrupted.

You've never said these words to me before. But now, I don't want to hear anymore.

“Dear wife?”

The person standing behind reached out and hugged me. Narrowing his eyes possessively.

“Young master Tong? Listening to the assistant, it seems like you have a cooperation matter to discuss with the Co family?"

“How is it? Don't want to talk anymore now?"
