Chapter 1 — After That Publicity, I Left

My best friend called me urgently, urging me to quickly go see my boyfriend's friend circle post - Luc Thieu Lang. At that time, I was standing, sweating, cooking in the kitchen of my future mother-in-law's house. I opened it and saw that Luc Thieu Lang had just posted a photo. In the photo, he and his childhood friend Bach Thien Thien are holding hands, smiling and looking at each other passionately, with the caption: [Finally together]. I think, these two have finally gone public. It's none of my business anymore. If I continued to stand in his kitchen, it would be ungrateful. So I picked up the phone and texted Luc Thieu Lang: "Let's break up!" Right after that, I took off my apron and prepared to leave.

"Noan Noan, the guests are waiting! What will you do if I leave?" Luc Thieu Lang's mother panicked and pulled my hand back.

“Auntie, your son just went public on the internet, please call your new daughter-in-law to come cook!”

1 When I was young, my best friend Tieu Man called me. I was excitedly cooking in the Luc family's kitchen. Today is Luc Thieu Lang's father's 60th birthday. Luc's mother invited a large crowd of relatives to wish her a long life. A few days ago, she discussed today's menu with me. As the girlfriend of Luc Thieu Lang, the future father-in-law, I naturally have to contribute. So when Luc's mother called to ask for help, I happily accepted to be the main chef.

“Noan Noan, quickly go online and see, that bastard Luc Thieu Lang has gone public with Bach Thien Thien!”

Tieu Man's angry voice rang out on the phone. I quickly put down the spoon and opened my phone to look. Can't see anything! Did he block me? Tieu Man immediately took a screenshot and sent it over. I glanced at it and saw that Luc Thieu Lang had just posted a photo. In the photo, he and Bach Thien Thien are holding hands, smiling and looking at each other deeply, with the caption: [Finally together]. Below are a series of comments wishing everyone a hundred years of age, wishing you an early birth, wishing you eternal happiness, plus countless hearts. But absolutely no one mentioned me - the righteous girlfriend. These people are all friends of Luc Thieu Lang, I know them all. And they all know me too. More importantly, they have come to my house to eat countless meals that I cooked myself. But now, they all consider me dead. My cooking effort is literally fed to the dog. I thought for a moment and found it tasteless. Sooner or later we will break up, choosing a date is not as good as meeting, let's just do it today! I texted Luc Thieu Lang: "Let's break up!" Then take off your apron and prepare to leave. Luc Thieu Lang's mother had just entered the kitchen to see how the food was cooking. Seeing my appearance of preparing to brush off my hands and leave, she quickly pulled me back:

"Noan Noan, the guests are waiting! What will you do if I leave?" She panicked.

“Auntie, your son just went public on the internet, please call your new daughter-in-law to come cook!” I pushed her hand away.

A flash of confusion flashed through Luc's mother's eyes. She forced a flattering smile: "Noan Noan, are there any misunderstandings between you and Thieu Lang? Wait until all the guests have left, I will help you ask clearly! But right now, with so many guests outside, the main dish hasn't even been served yet. In honor of Uncle Luc's 60th birthday party, you can finish cooking this meal, okay?" Are not?" I was so angry that I burst out laughing. Looking at her unsurprised attitude, she must have seen her son's post. No matter how many times she went in and out of the kitchen, she never said a word. Is this treating me like a monkey to make fun of? It seems Luc Thieu Lang only blocked me. Now it's great, everyone out there in the living room probably saw that post. No wonder a few people were looking at me with avoidant eyes and strange expressions. They're probably scolding in their hearts, they've never seen anyone as stupid as this one. After being dumped by Luc Thieu Lang, he still devoted himself to cooking to please his parents.

“Auntie, Luc Thieu Lang and I just broke up, it's not reasonable for me to stay at your house anymore!”

I walked out of the kitchen, found my backpack and put it on my shoulder, ignoring Luc's mother following behind and nagging. She didn't really want to keep me, she was just worried about her family's feasts today. As soon as the people in the living room saw me coming out, they immediately fell silent. Huh, what a group of bighead carp. Normally, I bought countless gifts for them, calling them aunts and uncles for the past 2 years. In the end, seeing me being bullied by Luc Thieu Lang like that, no one entered the kitchen to warn me. They're all a bunch of ungrateful people! I turned cold, didn't even look back and walked straight out the door. With a click, the big door opened. The male and female leads just announced themselves – Luc Thieu Lang and Bach Thien Thien entered. One person wears a dashing suit, the other person wears sophisticated designer clothes. Truly a pair of beauties that dazzle people. Looking back at me: Baggy T-shirt, smelling of grease, dirty face. In my heart, I laughed at myself: Chu Gia Noan, look at you, you're the beauty queen of University A's Economics and Management Department, what have you tortured yourself into? 2 I looked straight, walked towards the door, and said to the two statues blocking the way: "Lend me the way!" Luc Thieu Lang and Bach Thien Thien seemed deaf and did not move. I had to stop walking. Luc Thieu Lang glanced at me, then looked at his mother following behind me, looked around at the relatives in the living room, and finally locked eyes on me.

“What happens again? What are you causing trouble? Aren't you tired of asking to break up every time?" Luc Thieu Lang was grumpy.

Listening to this tone, he must have read my farewell message. I texted him for a long time, but he didn't bother to reply even a single word, nor did he return any calls. Without explaining or admitting, how much he despises me!

“Luc Thieu Lang, you two have already made it public online, if I don't go, why stay? Oh right, why are you blocking me! If you dare to do it, why are you afraid? I'm sarcastic.

After hearing this, Luc Thieu Lang looked a little confused, paused for a second and then said: "It's just a joke!" It's not what you think!”

“Are you kidding? Is it okay to make fun of something that's public? You think I'm three years old, are you that easy to trick?" I retorted.

Luc Thieu Lang looked at me in surprise. That's right, I've never talked to him like this before. I could only feel angry, crying and asking him endlessly: Do you no longer love me, do you love someone else? And that "other person" is Bach Thien Thien. Since a year ago, when she quit Returning from abroad, Luc Thieu Lang is no longer mine. He was going to prepare a wonderful birthday gift for her, but forgot about my birthday. He was willing to rush to her house in the middle of the night just because she called to say the room had cockroaches and was afraid he couldn't sleep. Countless reasons: thunder, rain, broken water pipes, broken light bulbs, air conditioner not cool... in short, Bach Thien Thien can find a thousand and one reasons to call Luc Thieu Lang away. I've argued, cried, and screamed!
