Chapter 3 — Mother-in-law Stole Dowry Card, Not Knowing My Father Had Set A Trap

It was as if the greedy faces in the recording just now were just my hallucination. Now, they were cornered. These are pitiful people who reluctantly do so because they want to save their husbands and fathers. Chu Vien Hang held my hand. His palms were sweaty. The voice was full of pleading.

"Nien Niem, we are husband and wife, right?"

"I can't see death without being able to save it."

"That money... just consider it borrowed from me, okay?"

"When my family passes this hurdle, I will definitely return it to you even if you become a buffalo and a horse."

"If something unfortunate happens to your father..."

"This family will be torn apart."

"I can't live anymore."

He began to use the relationship between husband and wife. Using his father's life. To bind me with morality. If I'm really an innocent girl who hasn't experienced life yet. If I'm still immersed in this thing called love. Maybe at this moment, I will really soften my heart. I'm not. Looking at the man in front of me who was crying bitterly and acting enough to compete for the title of movie king, I just felt nausea rolling in my stomach. In my mind, every detail kept flashing before I got married. Danger signs were ignored by me. Things I always hypnotize myself by saying:

"He loves me."

Now it appears one after another. First time going to his house. Vuong Tu Lien took my hand and smiled so naively that it couldn't be more naive. She asked where my house was. How many square meters is the area? Ask my parents what business they do. How much is the annual income? Ask me if I am an only child, will my parents' assets be left to me in the future? At that time, Chu Vien Hang was still standing next to him, smiling in conciliation.

"Mom, are you checking the household registration? Why are you asking so carefully?"

"We love each other voluntarily, it's not a transaction."

Now think again. That's not a concern. It's an extremely accurate asset valuation. On the day of the engagement. According to my custom, both families will exchange household registration to take a look. At that time, my father just accidentally mentioned a sentence. Chu Vien Hang's face immediately changed. He smiled wryly and explained that the household registration book was in the countryside, kept by his grandparents. Have to wait a while to get it. Then, due to all sorts of things, it was abandoned. Now think again. It's not that he can't get it. But I don't dare take it out. Because he was afraid that my family would see the long record of bad faith and gambling conviction of his father - Chu Duc Phat. The most suspicious thing happened a few days before we registered our marriage. That day, he and I sat on the sofa watching a movie. As if accidentally mentioning a story. He told me that there was a college friend who married a rich girl. After getting married, that person directly uses his wife's bride price money to open a company. Now that he is a boss with tens of millions of yuan in assets, life is extremely smooth sailing. After speaking, he even glanced at me. Half joking, half serious said:

"Wife, it seems my future career will have to rely on you."

At that time I was drowning in the sweet nectar of love. Pretending to be angry, he raised his hand and lightly hit him. Criticize him for not having the will to progress. But now think again. It was not an idle conversation. It's clear that a certain type of thinking is being planted in my head step by step. Is being Explore my attitude towards the bride price. The flashback ends. I return to reality. Look at the husband in front of him who is still trying his best to act. I just felt cold all over. This marriage. From the beginning, it was a carefully calculated plot. A trap hunt with love as bait. Take my bride price of 3,300,000 yuan as the final goal. It was the stupid prey that walked into that trap. I didn't immediately expose their clumsy lies. Just gently withdrew his hand from Chu Vien Hang's hand. Take a step back. Keep a safe distance from the whole family. I looked at them. Calmly speak up. The voice was so quiet that there was not a single ripple.

"How much debt?"

"Of which company?"

"Show me the loan papers."

Three simple questions. But it's like three sharp blades. Stab right into the heart of the lie. Vuong Tu Lien's cries immediately choked up. The painful expression on Chu Vien Hang's face also froze. Mother and daughter quickly looked at each other. There was unconcealed panic in his eyes. Vuong Tu Lien stammered and replied:

"The paper... the loan note was taken away by that group of heavens!"

"They were afraid that we would call the police and leave behind evidence, so they took it all away!"

It's really so flawed that it's funny.
