Chapter 8 — After Betrayal Comes Peace

"Even though I don't want to admit it, I regretted it a long time ago. If I hadn't been with Yen So before, you would still be my best friend. Kieu Kieu, I really miss you."

Ha Du cried very hard. But from beginning to end, I just looked at her coldly.

“Kieu Kieu, can I still eat the food you cooked yourself?”

I pointed to the menu posted on the wall:

"If you want to eat, just call. Cooking starts at eleven o'clock, remember to pay."

After I finished saying that sentence, Ha Du was completely silent. Seeing that she had no intention of opening her mouth again, I started washing the vegetables again. When Luc Ung Tham returned, he saw Ha Duu sitting on the side wiping tears from his eyes. He asked me with his eyes what happened. I shook my head, signaling it was nothing. With Luc Ung Tham's help, the work of preparing ingredients was much faster than usual. From half past ten o'clock, regular customers began to continuously come to the restaurant. I started to get busy. At exactly eleven o'clock, Ha Duu stood in front of me ordering:

“I want a portion of pickled chili chicken intestine vermicelli.”

I nodded and quickly started cooking her portion. When the bowl of vermicelli was placed in front of him, Ha Duu cried again. I was speechless and rolled my eyes, but said nothing. When there were most guests, Ha Duu left. But after rush hour, she returned to the shop and found a place to sit down. I didn't ask her what she wanted to do, I just continued to do the job at hand. At two o'clock in the afternoon, the food blogger from before came again. This time she didn't bring any filming equipment. After ordering, she happened to sit in front of Ha Du. When I brought up the noodles, the girl asked me:

“Lady, after I posted that video, did more people come to your restaurant?”

Luc Ung Tham, still sitting at the bar, heard that and immediately looked at the food blogger:

“Are you the one who lied to my wife that she only had a few hundred followers?”

The girl nodded and hesitantly asked:

“What's wrong? Is the response to the video not good?”

Luc Ung Tham glared at Ha Duu, his tone full of sarcasm:

"Good, very good. Not only does it bring new customers, it also brings people that my wife never wants to see again in her whole life!"

The girl looked at me, then looked at Ha Duu who didn't dare raise his head. She quietly said "oh" and didn't dare to continue speaking. At four o'clock in the afternoon, Luc Ung Tham and I closed the shop. Ha Duu still stood in place, not leaving. Originally I didn't want to pay attention to her. But before I go, I still say one thing:

"Don't come again in the future. The matter between you two has nothing to do with me. I don't want unimportant people to affect my current life."

With Luc Ung Tham by my side, the road back home goes even slower. By the time we reached the bottom of the building, half an hour had passed. I was already feeling a bit tired, but when I saw Co Yen So standing there, I felt even more uncomfortable.

"You two are truly worthy of being husband and wife. Your illness is exactly the same, both of which make others hate you!"

Co Yen So smiled bitterly. After looking at Luc Ung Tham, he proactively extended his hand:

“Hello.”

Luc Ung Tham didn't pay attention to him. Co Yen So awkwardly retracted her hand.

“Sorry, I hired someone to investigate you.”

Luc Ung Tham silently snorted:

“What can be investigated?”

Co Yen So looked at me, then faced Luc Ung Tham's eyes:

“From the investigation, you are very brave and not as poor as I imagined. Article If you find out, you can give Kieu Kieu a good life."

The mockery on Luc Ung Tham's face became even clearer.

“What's wrong? If I had no money or courage, would you still plan to get my wife back?

Co Yen So nodded without hesitation:

“It's true that I thought so.”

“You are really shameless.”

Co Yen So pursed her lips:

“Yes, I am shameless. So I only dare to think but don't dare to actually act."

“What did you come here for?”

Not wanting to continue listening, I impatiently interjected.
