Chapter 4
Chapter 4 — There are two boys in the house
In the blink of an eye, twelve years have passed. Co Lang is nineteen years old, Giang Lam is fifteen years old. That year, Co Lang ranked first in the university entrance exam in the province. Provincial valedictorian. The day the news spread, banners were hung right at the gate of the apartment complex. Reporters carried long-lens cameras and blocked my door. Finally seeing all the reporters go, I closed the door and breathed a sigh of relief. Turning my head to look, Co Lang was standing in the living room looking at me.
“Mom.”
“Yes?”
“Thank you mom.”
I was a bit stunned.
"Thank you for what? I just did well on my own exam."
He walked forward.
“If it weren't for you, I would've... I don't know where I would be.”
“Twelve years, mom, thank you.”
I looked at you. Nineteen years old, already a head taller than me. I reached out my hand, intending to tiptoe and pat his shoulder. Before he could lower his hand, the doorbell rang again.
“Who is that?”
I open the door. Outside stood a woman. Over forty years old, wearing gold and silver, with a fake smile on his face.
"Excuse me, is this the house of classmate Co Lang?"
I frowned.
“Who are you?”
She laughed.
"I am Co Lang's biological aunt."
“Her father's biological sister.”

I paused a bit. Turned his head to look at Co Lang. He walked over and stood behind me. He said with a cold expression: "I've never met you, I'm not familiar." The fake smile on the woman's face stiffened for a moment.
"What are you talking about, child? I'm your biological aunt! When your father passed away, she was abroad and couldn't return in time."
"Now that you passed the exam as valedictorian, I especially came to visit you."
I stood blocking the door.
“Wait.”
"I haven't seen you once in twelve years. As soon as you passed valedictorian, you came to visit right away?"
“Are you coming to visit him, or are you coming to visit the valedictorian?”
The woman's face changed slightly.
"What are you talking about? I'm his biological aunt!"
“Get out of the way, I want to talk to my nephew!”
I stood still without moving.
“Let's talk about anything here.”
She glared at me, I glared back. In the end, she softened her voice first.
“Okay, okay, say it here.”
She changed her smile and looked at Co Lang.
"Tieu Lang, this time I came to take you home to live."
"You have now passed the valedictorian exam and are about to enter Thanh Hoa. I have a house in Beijing, and from now on you will have a place to rest."
“It's better than staying with outsiders.”
【Phi! Disgusting!】 【It's been twelve years, now it's time to pick the fruit?】 Co Lang didn't say anything, just "bang" and closed the door right in front of her. Three days later, Co Tri Thu came again. As soon as I entered the door, I spoke directly.
“One million.”
She popped a check on the table.
“You leave Co Lang, this money is yours.”
I looked at the check, then at her.
“What do you mean?”
Co Tri Thu smiled.
“I mean, you're just an outsider and have no qualifications to raise my grandchild.”
“Take the money and leave.”
"Co Lang come with me."
【Beans! One million!】 【Mom, don't agree!】 I was silent for 0.5 seconds. Then said: “Okay.” Co Tri Thu was stunned.
“You… you agree?”
I picked up the check.
“Agree.”
“When are you leaving?”
“Now.”
I stood up and went into the room. Start packing your luggage. Co Tri Thu stood in the living room, her face filled with disbelief. But very quickly she laughed.
“Okay, it's good to be reasonable.”
Co Lang stood at the door, watching me pack my things. He didn't say anything. Just a gloomy and scary face.

Co Lang and I completely turned our faces. Poor Giang Lam, he deserves it Because I want to reconcile the relationship between me and Co Lang, I run back and forth to both sides every day, today after school I go to this place, tomorrow after school I go to that place. But I believe that being a human being still requires a spirit of contract, so without hesitation I refused Giang Lam's matchmaking offer. Take this million to travel abroad. One year later. When I returned, Co Lang, through her aunt's connections, took over a few projects of Co Thi Group. Regarding this, she said this:
“Hopefully my grandson can combine theory with practice and fully master university knowledge.”
But what is the reality? Who knows? A month after I returned home, Co Tri Thu came to see me.
“Sigh, I must say the valedictorian is indeed the valedictorian.”
“In just one short year, my profits have increased more than ten times.”
“Tell me, aren't you throwing away watermelons and picking sesame seeds?”
I don't pay attention to her. Just busy playing with my newly done nails. Co Tri Thu was not angry and continued to speak.
"Oh right, my husband's birthday is going to be held next month for my husband's birthday. You should come too."
I raised my head to look at her.
“What did I come for?”
She laughed.
"After all, you raised Co Lang for twelve years, letting him honor you with a glass of wine, isn't that too much?"
I looked at her. She also looked at me. Finally I said: “Okay.” 【Mom is about to go to the party!】 【I have a feeling something big will happen!】 【Co Tri Thu's smile is so fake, there must be a conspiracy】 11 On the day of the party, I conveniently put on a dress and went. After all, this time the party is the Hongmen banquet. I'm not in the mood to dress up. Looking at Trieu Quoc Cuong speaking on stage, I couldn't help but laugh coldly in my heart. The dog used to follow Co Lang's father, but one day he also stood in this position. Not long after, it was Co Tri Thu's turn to speak. She stood on the podium and told how much she struggled for this family. He also said that although he doesn't have children, luckily his brother's son is also very filial. She said she worked hard to raise her grandson, but he also had a great future. I passed the entrance exam to Bac Zhe University on my own. The best school in China. She also said that in the future, all the shares that belong to her will be handed over to Co Lang.
