Chapter 8 — Cheaters Must Pay

“Why do you have to apologize to me?” “Because every time they pressure me, they say it's because of me.” “You can't go to summer camp because I have to have a re-examination.” “You can't participate in competitions in other provinces because I can't do without you.” “I can't go to school in other provinces because they say my health is not good.” She used her sleeve to wipe her face. “But I've been healthy for a long time.” “I don't need you to take care of me.” I didn't say anything. Previous life. I once left a winter camp of Thanh Hoa and Bac Dai. Because Wei Minh Chau doesn't want to stay at school alone. My parents said my younger brother had just had surgery and I couldn't be too selfish. After that, I dropped out of university in another province. They said my brother had to be re-examined every year, and if I went away, what would the family do? More later. I sold the apartment to pay off their debt. They still say: "It's not easy for us to raise your younger brother." "If you're an older sister, you'll have to shoulder a little more responsibility." Turns out. Giang Du Xuyen is not the person they really need to protect. It's just the rope they used to tie me up. I put the medical records back in the envelope. "Du Xuyen." "Don't talk about this before your eyes." She froze. "Why?" "Speaking now, they just took these things away." "So what should I do?" I looked at the desk. Bottom drawer. The real signal transmitter is there. “Wait.” “Wait for what?” “Wait for them to act first.” Giang Du Xuyen didn't understand. Suddenly there was the sound of a key turning outside. She immediately crawled back into the closet. I stuffed the envelope under the mattress. The door opens. My mother walked in carrying a bowl of noodles. "Eat something." She put the bowl of noodles on the table. The voice was much gentler than before. "Your father is discussing with General Manager Wei." "As long as you admit your mistake, it won't be a big deal." I looked at her. "How can we not make a big deal of it?" "The Wei family will think of a way." "Miss Minh Chau is still young, she doesn't understand anything." "The device is always in your hand." She sat down next to me. Grabbed my hand. "Nien An, your results are good." "Even if your results are really canceled once, you can still take the test again next year." "But Minh Chau is not like you." "If he doesn't pass, his shares will no longer exist." I asked: "So it's okay if your results are canceled?" She frowned. "I didn't say it was okay." "But things have come to this, after all, someone must be responsible." "Why you?" She was silent for a moment. Then say: “Because I can endure it.” This statement. It hurts more than a slap. It's not that she doesn't love me. She just felt. Loving someone who can endure it doesn't have to cost anything. I nodded. “I understand.” She thought I had thought it through. Finally, a smile appeared on his face. "It's good to understand." "Tomorrow General Manager Wei will invite a lawyer." "I'll explain everything clearly." "Afterwards it will still be the same as before." Still the same as before. Continue living in the annex. Continue doing the assignment for Wei Minh Chau. Continue to spend my life paying off a debt that doesn't exist. I asked: "Where is my phone?" She was immediately alert. "What do you need the phone for?" "Look up the answer." "No need to look up." "No matter how Minh Chau does in the exam, you are responsible." She stood up and went out. "Eat the noodles while it's still hot." The door was locked again. There was silence in the closet for a few seconds. Giang Du Xuyen came out. The tears on her face had dried. “Sister.” “I can help you.” “I can help you do something.” I took the envelope out from under the mattress and gave it to her. “Hide this carefully.” “Do not leave it in the house.” “Leave it at school.” “In my locker.” She took the envelope. “What else?” I pointed to the desk. “In the bottom drawer there is a black box.” “I'll find a chance to take it out tomorrow.” She pulled the drawer out. Inside is a real signal transmitter. Black. Only as big as a thumb. Next to it there is also a magnetic switch. Giang Du Xuyen's face changed. "This is..." "Don't touch the button." "Wrap it in paper." "Put it in a place where no one will

found." "Maybe I'll use it later." She nodded. "But the door is locked." "They will come and release you." "Why?" "Because someone will come tomorrow." The Wei family will not lock me up forever. They need my signature. They need me to admit it myself. They also need me to show myself in front of everyone as a poor girl who lost control because of jealousy. The more they want to complete the story. The more chance I have. The next morning. The lawyer came. La Tu Vu cung den. Co ay mac vay lien mau trang, dung trong phong khach nha ho Nguy. Sac mat rat kho coi. Tren ban dat ba tap tai lieu. Mot ban trinh bay qua trinh mua thiet bi. Mot ban tuong trinh su viec. Con mot thoa thuan hoa giai. Nguy Thua Quan ngoi giua ghe sofa. Nhu dang xu ly mot tranh chap cong ty binh thuong.“Niem An, ngoi di.”Toi ngoi xuong doi dien. Mat Nguy Minh Chau sung do. Ca dem khong ngu. Thay toi, co I immediately turned away. The lawyer pushed the documents in front of me. "Miss Giang." "Based on the situation we currently understand, the fraud device was purchased by La Tu Vu." "You are in charge of preservation and operation." "Miss Wei does not know the specific function of the device." I raised my head. "She doesn't know?"
