Chapter 4 — My Neighbors Think I'm a Fat Goat

I pulled him to the window and pointed downstairs. A white van, with the words "Market Supervision Management" printed on its body, just stopped in front of the door of "Tran Pham Luu Ky Hot Pot". Immediately after that, a car with a "tax" sign and a red fire patrol car arrived one after another. Three law enforcement vehicles lined up neatly in front of the hot pot restaurant, with a great atmosphere. Many grandparents in the apartment complex gathered around to exercise in the morning, pointing and chatting. Several uniformed employees got out of the car, with serious expressions, and went straight into the restaurant. Cao Minh looked at him with his eyes wide open. He turned his head to look at me, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief. “Did… did you really call them… all the way?” I nodded: "I just press the button, start the process. Next, leave it to the professionals." Not long after, we saw Luu Le being "invited" out by several staff members. Her hair was messy, her face was panicked, and she loudly argued something as she walked. When she was brought in front of the law enforcement vehicle, she seemed to sense something, suddenly raised her head, crossed the crowd, and looked towards our building. From dozens of meters away, I couldn't see her expression clearly. Cao Minh instinctively pulled me back a step. “She saw us.” His voice was dry. I didn't move, calmly facing her. I know, from this moment on, the nature of this matter has completely changed. It is no longer a dispute about money and rules. It turned into an endless war between me and her. But I accept the challenge. 06 The hot pot restaurant is sealed. “Suspension of business for rectification.” These four words became the biggest gossip in our apartment complex for the next few days. Luu Le's restaurant was investigated for a bunch of problems. Price fraud is an established matter, the Market Surveillance Administration fined a large amount of money. The invoice issue led to tax evasion and tax evasion, leading to a deep investigation by the tax department. The fire prevention risk is even more serious, not only is the path blocked, but also the gas pipe is arbitrarily repaired. The fire prevention team ordered her to restore the original state, otherwise the door will absolutely not be allowed to reopen. Luu Le was completely devastated. She disappeared from the resident group, and her personal page stopped updating. Cao Minh's mood these past few days has been like riding a roller coaster. From being worried and scared at first, to being shocked when I saw a law enforcement vehicle, to now being full of joy. “Wife, you are truly amazing!” Now his eyes look at me with admiration. My mother also compliments everyone she meets: "My family's Thu Thu is a cultured, intelligent person who understands the law!" But I can't be happy. Because I know, it's not over yet. A person is forced to the limit, anything can be done. That evening, nearly eleven o'clock, Cao Minh and I prepared to rest. Suddenly there was a loud banging sound outside the door. Not knocking, but banging. The force was so strong that it felt like even the anti-theft door was vibrating. Cao Minh was startled: "Who is that? It's so late!" I walked up to the cat's eyes and looked out. Sound-sensitive lights in the hallway turn bright and dark. Under the light, there was a figure with droopy hair standing there. It's Luu Le. She wasn't wearing that signature cheongsam, just wearing a wrinkled pajamas, with no makeup on her face, tears and grease mixed together, looking both haggard and unusually fierce. "Tran Thu! Open the door! I know you're inside!" "You come here for me! You bitch! You ruined me! I risk my life for you!" She banged on the door and screamed shrillly and mournfully, her voice in the quiet hallway sounded especially hostile. Cao Minh's face turned white and he pulled me tightly. "Don't open the door! She's crazy! Call the police!" I didn't move, just calmly took out my phone, turned on the video recording function, and pointed it at the cat's eyes. I need to preserve evidence. Luu Le was outside the door crying and cursing, saying all kinds of dirty words that could not be heard. “I beg you, Ms. Tran, I was wrong, I was really wrong!” "You hold it up high and hit it lightly, please forgive me for once! My shop cannot be lost

Okay!" “Just go and tell them that we were just joking, it was a misunderstanding, and they will cancel the punishment!” She began to beg, her voice was pitiful, there was even a "thud" sound, as if she was kneeling. Cao Minh was a bit reluctant: "She... isn't she quite pitiful?" I looked at him coldly: "Have you forgotten how she threatened us?" Crocodile tears are the most unworthy of sympathy. Seeing that I still didn't open the door, Luu Le's pleading voice gradually turned into an evil curse. “Tran Thu, you can't die properly! You are so cruel, your whole family will not have a good ending!” “I tell you, I can't live anymore, so don't expect to live in peace!” “Today I will die right in front of your house for you to see!” She started banging on the door with her head, making heavy "thud, thud" sounds. Cao Minh was completely panicked and picked up the phone to call the police. I held his hand back. “Don't rush.”
