Chapter 13 — 19 Lakhs 2, Buying Out a Family

I smiled and spoke slowly.

"Adding your sister-in-law's name to the book will certainly make her feel more secure. It's a good thing, I support it."

My reaction… was completely unexpected. Ly Mai and Truong Tu Mai glanced at each other with both surprise and joy in their eyes. Maybe they thought I was soft, or scared, and wanted to settle. I gently changed my voice.

“If you have added a name, then by the way… add my name as well.”

This time, all three people were stunned.

“I say it simply.”

I stood up, walked in front of them, looking down from above.

"Taking this opportunity, let's complete the inheritance procedures."

“This house is the legacy my father left behind.”

“According to the law, me, Chu Hao and mother each have one-third.”

"Tomorrow we will go to the real estate agency together and change from father's name to three people owning it together."

“After completing this step…”

I stopped, my eyes slowly turned to Ly Mai, the smile on my lips carried some profound meaning.

"Sister-in-law wants to add a name, okay. Let Chu Hao transfer half of his share to you."

"So, there will be four people in the book. Mom one-third, me one-third, and you and Chu Hao each one-sixth."

“It turns out… very fair, right?”

Every sentence I said was like a clear calculation, revealing the entire plot they hid under a layer of fake affection. Ly Mai's face immediately turned white. The dream of swallowing half of the house... shattered instantly. One sixth? How many calculations... in the end only one sixth remained? Too far from what she wanted. Truong Tu Mai also promptly reacted. She looked at me, her eyes both surprised and angry. Finally understood… I never gave in. I'm... planning and planning. Not only did he hold on to his one-third, but he also tightened Chu Hao's part.

“Chu Tinh!”

She stood up and pointed straight at me.

“What exactly do you want!”

“You must destroy this house to be satisfied!”

I looked at her, the smile on my lips gradually disappeared. My voice was cold as ice.

“Now it's just a matter of adding names to the book.”

“If you guys continue to play tricks…”

“Next time, we won't go to the real estate office anymore.”

“But going to court.”

“I will sue, asking for property division.”

“At that time, this house has only one ending.”

“Sold at auction.”

“Each person takes their share… everyone goes their own way.”

“This family… is also over.”

“She chose it herself.”

I finished speaking. The room fell into absolute silence. Truong Tu Mai's whole body staggered as if about to fall. She looked at me... like a stranger. In those eyes... there was fear, there was hatred, but more... there was despair. She lost. Every calculation… every weakness… became a joke in front of me. At that moment, Chu Hao - who had been silent all this time - suddenly spoke up. His voice was hoarse, dry, extremely tired. He raised his head to look at me.

“I agree.”

“My share… I'll give it to you.”

“I don't need anything else.”

“Just ask you… one thing.”

His eyes... revealed a plea.

“Can you… give me back the promissory note?”

Chu Hao's words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake. The wave... spread out in everyone's hearts. Ly Mai was the first to jump up, like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

“Chu Hao, are you crazy?”

"That's home! It's our place to live in the future! Who are you going to give it to?"

She rushed forward, grabbed his hand and shook it vigorously.

"Are you awake? Because of that torn car, you don't need a house anymore." ah!”

Chu Hao let her shake, his eyes still glued to me. Like a drowning person... clinging to the last straw.

“Sister, I just need you to return the debt paper.”

“The house… is inherently yours.”

“I don't need it anymore, I'll give it all to you.”

His voice was so low that it almost disappeared. What surprised me the most... was Truong Tu Mai's reaction. She is not crazy like Ly Mai. Just looking at Chu Hao, his eyes were complicated. There is mercy. There is heartache. Then… she nodded.

“Tieu Tinh, just do as he says.”

“He's been forced to the limit by me.”

“You… let it go.”

“From now on, this house will also be yours.”

“Let's… move out and rent.”
