Chapter 11 — 7 Fingerprints Found In My New Home

Chu Bang still raised his voice.

“Sister-in-law, don't pretend to be pitiful.”

“If it weren't for your support, this ruined store would have collapsed a long time ago.”

“If you take over, you're saving me.”

I stood up. Look straight at him.

“Did you pick the drawer?”

“I see the door is not locked properly.”

“Let's go check it out.”

Khuong Le pointed straight at the camera.

“Do you think the camera is here for show?”

Chu Bang reflexively raised his head. See the camera in the corner of the wall. The smug look on his face finally disappeared. Tham Chieu coldly spoke:

“Report the police.”

Chu Bang immediately panicked.

“Don't report!”

“I just took the key and tried to open it!”

“My mother said the store would also belong to my brother in the future.”

“Is it okay if I watch it first?”

Tham Chieu immediately grasped the important point.

"Key?"

“Where did you get the key?”

Chu Bang immediately closed his mouth. Don't say another word. I went to the locker where the spare keys were. Open the box. There were originally three inside. But now... One is missing. That key. Last night I saw it in Zhou Jingjing's suitcase. Mother-in-law took it away. Then he gave it to Chu Bang. When the police arrived. Chu Bang still tried to deny.

“I don't steal.”

“I am her brother-in-law.”

The female police officer opened the surveillance video.

“I'll bring someone to pry open the drawer.”

“Affix transfer paper.”

“Open the refrigerator for storage.”

“You mean visiting relatives like this?”

Chu Bang's face turned pale.

“Is it okay if I pay for it?”

I coldly replied:

“No private mediation.”

Chu Bang immediately glared at me.

“Don't be so cruel.”

“If you really send me to the station.”

“My brother will not forgive you.”

I looked at him. The corners of the lips curled slightly.

“Your brother has forgiven me many times.”

Chu Bang did not understand. But Khuong Le understands. Her eyes turned red for a moment. Immediately after that, he scolded:

“Quickly send it away.”

“Don't let the smell of bread in the shop be polluted anymore.”

When Chu Bang was put in a police car. Chu Canh Xuyen's phone call came. I pressed listen. Also turn on the speakerphone. His voice contained suppressed anger.

“You told the police to arrest my brother?”

“It ripped open my store.”

“He just wanted to help me look after the store.”

“It posted a transfer sign.”

The other end of the line was silent for two seconds. Then Chu Canh Xuyen said:

“It's just because I want it to be good for you.”

“My mood is unstable right now.”

“Leave the store to family members to manage.”

“It's better than closing.”

I raised my phone towards the surveillance camera.

“Damage to refrigerator storage.”

“Damage to cashier drawer.”

“Locks damage.”

“I will ask for full compensation.”

Chu Canh Xuyen's voice immediately turned cold.

“Now even your younger brother refuses to let go?”

I answer word by word:

“Even you.”

“I won't miss it either.”

On the other end of the line came the sound of the mother-in-law cursing.

“Canh Xuyen!”

“Don't beg for it!”

“If he wants to sue, he can sue.”

“Could it win?”

Chu Canh Xuyen took a deep breath.

“Let's go home tomorrow.”

“Let's talk clearly.”

Tham Chieu looked at me. I calmly replied:

“There is a lawyer with you.”

“I will come.”

Chu Canh Xuyen immediately objected.

“Do not bring outsiders.”

I hung up the phone directly. Tham Chieu collected evidence documents.

“He's impatient.”

Khuong Le asked:

“Impatient about it What?"

Tham Chieu looked at me.

“He wants you to go back alone.”

“The matter of Chu Bang is just a test.”

“There is definitely something else behind it.”

I pushed the drawer that had been pried back open. Drawer jammed. Makes a shrill hissing sound.

“Then let them try until the end.”

Chu Canh Tinh sent me a photo. My mother-in-law is sitting on my bed. In hand holding a memorandum of cooperation with Van Hoa. There is also a message below.

“Mom said she would take this to Van Hoa tomorrow.”

“Ask if I'm secretly selling the store behind your back.”

The next morning. I went back to the new house with Tham Chieu and Khuong Le. There was someone standing in front of the door waiting. It's Trieu Minh Duc. Just saw me. His expression was even more guilty than yesterday.

“Tieu Lam.”

“I just came to take a look.”

Khuong Le immediately asked directly:

“Didn't we see enough of the store yesterday?”

“Come to see the house again today?”

Trieu Minh Duc rubbed his hands.

“Mr. Chu said you two are getting divorced.”

“It is likely that the house will be sold.”

“I have a friend who wants to get to know me first.”

I looked at him.

“Who let you into the residential area?”

He pointed inside the house. Mother-in-law poked her head out from inside the door.

“Come really fast.”

“Just happened that the landlord is also here.”

“Today we will talk clearly about the store and the house.”

I walked into the living room. There are a few pieces of paper on the tea table. Chu Canh Xuyen sat on the sofa. His face was extremely unsightly. Chu Bang was not present. Chu Canh Tinh hugged his child and sat huddled in the corner. Seeing me, her lips moved slightly. But in the end still said nothing. The mother-in-law slammed a stack of papers on the tea table.

“This is the deal.”

“The house belongs to Canh Xuyen.”

“The store belongs to Chu Bang.”

“She left empty-handed.”

"Considering the relationship between husband and wife over the past few years."

“Our Chu family will give you one hundred thousand yuan.”

Khuong Le burst out laughing.

“One hundred thousand yuan?”

“Do you think you're getting rid of the old refrigerator?”

Mother-in-law pointed straight at her face.

“You shut up.”

“Don't let outsiders interfere.”

Tham Chieu picked up the agreement to read. Scroll through once.

“Who wrote this document?”

Chu Canh Xuyen replied:

“I asked someone to do it.”

Tham Chieu put down the paper.

“Does a photocopy shop do it?”

Chu Canh Xuyen's face immediately darkened.

“Lawyer Tham.”

“This is an agreement between us as husband and wife.”

I pulled out a chair and sat down.

“If it's an agreement.”

“Let's talk then.”

“I contribute half of the deposit to buy a house.”

“After marriage, pay the loan together.”

“Store lease contract.”

"Device."

"Recipe."

"Revenue."

“It's all in my name.”

“Chu Bang broke into my store.”

“I called the police.”

“I want to know where the six hundred thousand yuan you transferred to Chu Bang came from.”
