Chapter 6 — New Year's Eve Turns the Table

Updated 10/08/2026 5 min read

It is said that the general director of the shopping center personally attended Lam Sam's wedding. The entire Lam family felt extremely flattered. "Probably because Mr. Lam has a good reputation outside, even General Manager Luc had the honor to attend!" The two old men of the Lam family raised their heads even higher, unbearably proud. Many people surrounded Luc Vu Hang, smiling and offering business cards. Luc Vu Hang's whole body emitted cold air. It wasn't until I called him: "Where are you?" Luc Vu Hang immediately stood up and waved at me: "Wife! Here!" Then everyone looked at me. Of course, including the Lam family. "Co Dang!" I walked to Luc Vu Hang's side. He conveniently helped me take off my jacket and hang it on the back of the chair. I asked, "Why are you sitting at the main table?" "They told you to sit." "They" were the Lam family. The entire Lam family looked at me, eyes wide open. I only greeted my eldest sister-in-law, out of habit, I still called her: "Sister-in-law." My two nieces called me: "Auntie!" There was also the youngest child, who looked only about three years old, also a girl. I gave lucky money to all three children. Looking at it, I knew it was very thick inside. The two old men looked at the thick envelopes of lucky money and their eyes widened. Luc Vu Hang said: "Let me introduce myself again. I am Co Duong's husband, Luc Vu Hang." "Don't call me aunt anymore, call me aunt Co!" "Your aunt is today's bride!" Luc Vu Hang pointed at the bride Kieu Mien Mien with a big belly. Kieu Mien Mien's face turned red. She stared at me, I don't know if it was out of shame or anger. The eldest sister-in-law's eyes were filled with tears, as if she had a lot of self-pity that she wanted to tell: "Dang Duong, long time no see." Many people present knew I was Lam Sam's ex-wife. The surroundings immediately rang with gossip. "Unexpectedly, after the divorce, Mr. Lam's ex-wife married General Director Luc of Vu Hang Technology!" "Do you know how rich General Director Luc is? This entire building is owned by the Luc family! Just collecting rent every day is tiring!" "How could Mr. Lam invite his ex-wife's entire family? Wouldn't that be a shame?" "I heard that Mr. Lam is tired." Divorce his ex-wife because of his current wife! His ex-wife should be thanking his current wife!”“…”The joy of the public is truly endless. Everyone ate well. Except for the Lam family, who can't swallow food at all. When it came to the wedding ceremony, everyone didn't seem to be in the mood to watch, only looking at me and Luc Vu Hang. Luc Vu Hang also loudly asked me: "What happened before you and Mr. Lam divorced?" I answered loudly: "Ah, it was because one year, on the thirtieth night, Kieu Mien Mien, also the current bride, picked up food for him." "It's true that he was sick. Picking up food for someone else's husband." Kieu Mien Mien originally picked up chopsticks, intending to pick up food for Luc Vu Hang. Hearing him say that, she quietly put food into Lam Sam's bowl. Anyway, during the entire wedding, I ate and drank happily. What does it have to do with me whether other people are happy or not? After the wedding ended, when Luc Vu Hang went to the bathroom, Lam Sam called me back. "Co Duong, seeing you live happily, I feel secure." "Idiot, do you believe when you say this?" He was interrupted again. My ex-husband's parents looked at me with complicated eyes. It seems like there are many people who want to scold me but don't dare. It doesn't please my eyes but it can't do anything to me. Kieu Mien Mien arrogantly raised her head and mocked me: "My husband is a university lecturer, about to be considered for a professor position! Your husband is just a guy who got rich thanks to the clearance compensation! What are you proud of?" "Who is proud, you idiot? I see you are very jealous." "A remarried woman like me is still proud."

can marry the general manager. Something like that, you wouldn't even dare to dream about!" Kieu Mien Mien was also speechless. 11 I found a job for my sister-in-law and even gave her a house. There was no other way, there were too many houses in the family, so I could freely give them away. My eldest sister-in-law hugged me and cried for a long time: "Dang Duong, thank you. I will definitely return it to you in the future!” I told her: “Let's get a divorce. We won't live in the days of working as a free maid anymore." "Sister-in-law, in the future I will be your escape." I am grateful to my eldest sister-in-law for taking care of me during the abortion. I also appreciate that she told me everything she had been through. Otherwise, my current life probably wouldn't be much better than hers. After hearing that my eldest sister-in-law wanted a divorce, the Lam family all felt that she was crazy. Her husband scoffed: "You see." After Co Duong divorced, she could marry the general manager, so she felt like she could too, right?" "Don't dream anymore! Co Duong was originally the only daughter of a family in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. You're just someone from the countryside who sacrifices herself for her younger brother all day long!” “What did I sacrifice for my younger brother?”
