Chapter 2 — The Queen Mother Repays Gratitude - In This Life I Will Not Be Afraid of Confrontation
In her previous life, she used this smile to deceive everyone. Step by step I walked towards her. My father still wanted to say something, but was frightened by my cold eyes. You have never seen me like that. It even carried a trace of murderous intent that made him tremble in fear. I raised my hand and pointed straight at On Uyen's nose. My voice was not loud, but it clearly echoed throughout the lobby.
"Where are you?"
I'm calling the two families that my father hired a few days ago to look after the hospital. Hearing the call, they immediately ran from outside the hospital.
"Eldest Miss, what's the order?"
I watched On Uyen's face begin to show surprise, each word was spoken clearly.
"Bring this crazy woman out for me."
"Let's go to the southern city, the dirtiest brothel."
The whole hall fell into silence. My father's face immediately turned red like pig liver:
"Tu Thanh Vi! What nonsense are you talking about!"
The mother was also so scared that she lost her composure:
"Thanh Vi, are you crazy? She's still pregnant!"
On Uyen's eyes immediately filled with tears, her body staggered as if she might faint at any moment.
"This younger sister... we've never met, why... why do you treat me like that..."
The two families stood there looking at each other, not knowing what to do. My eyes turned cold, scanning towards them.
"My words, don't you understand?"
"This month's salary, don't want to receive it anymore?"
The two families trembled all over, not daring to hesitate any longer, moving forward one left and one right to hold On Uyen tightly. On Uyen was completely panicked. She didn't expect that a young girl who looked only fifteen years old could be so cruel.
"No! Let me go! Doctor Tu! Madam Tu! Save me!"
She began to struggle frantically. I looked at her coldly.
"Close her mouth and pull her away."
A family member immediately tore off the hem of his shirt and stuffed it into On Uyen's mouth. The world is quiet again. My father was so angry that his whole body shook, he pointed at me, his lips trembled, and for a long time he could not say a word.
"You... you're such a naughty girl!"
He raised his hand, a slap was about to fall. I don't dodge. Just raised her head and looked at him quietly. Using a look he had never seen before. Hopeless. Bringing with it a kind of endless sadness. Father's slap, in the end, still did not fall. But his eyes were colder than ice. His father's arm stopped in midair. His chest heaved violently, clearly angry to the extreme.
"Tu Thanh Vi, do you know what you are doing?"
His voice seemed to be forced from between his teeth. I calmly looked at him.
"Of course I know."
"I'm saving dad, saving mom, saving our whole family."
Lieu's mother was so scared that she sat down weakly on the ground. The maid Thuy Nhi supported her and kept crying.
"Thanh Vi, how could you do that..."
"That's one life, but two lives!"
"What a curse! What a curse!"
I didn't pay attention to my mother's cries. In her previous life, her kindness was rewarded with three hundred strokes of the Lingchi knife. In this life, I absolutely will not give you any more opportunities to "do good deeds". I looked at my father, my voice was so cold that it didn't carry any temperature.
"Dad, you just find her pitiful."
"But do you know who she is?"
"Dad only thinks about saving people."
"But father Have you ever thought that she will bring disaster to our family?"
Parents roared:
"Talk nonsense!"
"She's just a poor woman abandoned by her husband's family. What disaster could it cause?"
"I see you are truly possessed!"
I burst out laughing. A mournful smile. A smile full of sarcasm.
"Father, what if I say that in less than half a year, the evil seed in her womb will become the reigning Crown Prince?"
"What if you say, today I saved her, a year later our whole family will be stabbed to death because of her?"
Parents were stunned. He looked at me, like he was looking at a crazy person.
"What…what are you talking about!"
You won't believe it. A wolf hanging on a lake to save the world, his heart is full of kindness, how can he believe this kind of extreme nonsense. We must present evidence. A proof enough to make you temporarily stay silent and obey my orders. I took a deep breath and changed to another way of speaking.
"Dad, have you always thought that the Truong Ky pharmacy in the west of the city is your close friend?"
Father was stunned and instinctively nodded:
"Officer Truong has known me for ten years, of course."
I laughed coldly.
"Is it true that half a month ago, he borrowed five hundred taels of silver from his father, saying he wanted to go south to import a batch of rare medicinal herbs?"
The father's face changed slightly:
"How do you know?"
"Not just knowing that."
"You know, he never went south at all."
"He lost all that money in the casino."
"Right now, he is planning to set a fire and burn down his pharmacy."
"Then took the remaining assets and fled at night."
Father's pupils constricted violently.
"No way! Absolutely impossible! Treasurer Truong is not that kind of person!"
I looked at him, my eyes filled with pity. This is my father. All my life I live in the world of "human nature and good nature" that I have created for myself.
"Dad, believe it or not, let's make a bet."
"Tonight, during the third watch, father sent someone to the west of the city to guard."
"See if what you say is true or false."
"If you lose, let me beat you and scold you, ask you to kowtow and apologize to that woman, I will also accept."
"But if you win…"
I stopped for a moment, my voice suddenly raised, carrying a majesty that left no room for doubt.
"From now on, this house is what you say!"
