Chapter 13 — The Day I Stopped Fasting, They Lost Everything

She also counterattacked madly, scratching and biting Chu Hao and Chu Le like cornered animals.

"Do you two beasts have the face to blame me? In the first place, who instigated me to cause trouble, now when something happens, it's all on me."

“I beat these two ungrateful people to death.”

The three of them were like three mad dogs, tearing each other apart in a cramped space, their friendship in the face of money and desperation becoming ridiculously fragile. On the other side, Giang Than and I, through the surveillance screen, quietly watched the entire ugly scene unfold. Giang Than's face still had no expression, just that the bottom of his eyes seemed to have a layer of coldness that could not melt.

“That is my so-called blood-related family.”

He laughed lightly, carrying self-mockery, as if he were talking about a story that did not belong to him. I sighed softly, feeling like everything was finally coming to an end.

“It's over.”

Giang Than shook his head, his voice lowered.

“No, for them, the hellish life has just begun.”

As soon as his words ended, on the screen, Chu Le suddenly stopped. A crazy and cruel light flashed in her eyes, staring at her mother and brother who were fighting. Then, as if she had just thought of something, she curled her lips and smiled a strange smile. She leaned close to Chu Hao's ear and whispered a sentence that only the two of them could hear. Chu Hao's movements immediately stopped. He looked at his sister, his eyes turned from anger to surprise, then gradually turned into suicidal madness. Finally, he nodded and said one word very quietly. I stared at the screen, an indescribable feeling of insecurity arose in my heart.

“What… are they going to do?”

Giang Than also frowned and quickly enlarged the image to read lips. A few seconds later, his face changed suddenly, he stood up and looked at me, showing seriousness for the first time.

"Hua Tinh, their final plan is to target you. They will come to your house to kidnap you and use you to threaten us."

In the dark basement where the Chu family lived, the air was filled with the smell of mold and despair. Luu Ngoc Mai's face was not yet swollen, but her eyes had become as ferocious as a wild beast. Chu Hao huddled in the corner, like a lost dog, his eyes empty. Only Chu Le still had a distorted madness on her face, as if she had nothing left to lose.

“Brother, mother, you two stop being like corpses.”

She screamed, her voice sharp as a knife.

"We haven't lost yet. As long as we're alive, we still have a chance to turn the situation around."

Luu Ngoc Mai raised her head and looked at her youngest daughter with cloudy eyes.

"What can we turn over? We don't even have money for tomorrow's food. Giang Than is a ghost, and Hua Tinh is also an independent woman."

“We can't fight them.”

Failure finally made this stubborn woman all her life admit her helplessness.

“No, we can fight.”

Chu Le stood up and walked back and forth in the cramped space like an animal cornered.

"The more money you have, the more afraid you are of death, the more afraid you are of losing your reputation. Giang Than is afraid, Hua Kien Quoc is also afraid."

“That is our chance.”

Her eyes flashed with a poisonous light like a poisonous snake. She bent down, leaned close to the two of them, lowered her voice as if she were telling a secret from hell. Those two words were like lightning hitting Chu Hao and Luu Ngoc Mai in the heads. Chu Hao jumped up, looking at his sister in disbelief.

“Le Le, are you crazy? That's illegal, you have to go to jail for life.”

“We're already miserable enough, do you still want the whole family to die in prison?”

The remaining part of his reason made him tremble. Chu Le smiled coldly, her eyes full of contempt.

“You're so naive, right now we're in jail, cursed by the whole world, no one will hire us, and still have a debt of one hundred million.”

"We live just to make fun of Giang Than and Hua Tinh, are you willing to live like that for the rest of your life?"

Her every sentence was like a sledgehammer hitting Chu Hao's head, causing his remaining will to gradually crumble. That's right, living like that is no different from being dead. Liu Ngoc Mai also began to waver, in her old eyes the familiar fire of greed flared up again.

“Le Le, what… do you have a plan?”

Seeing that her mother was being led, Chu Le was immediately excited, her voice carrying a madness that was difficult to hide.

"The plan is very simple, that Hua Tinh is definitely proud right now, thinking he won, so he will definitely let his guard down."

“We look for an opportunity to ambush near its new home, capture it, then record a video and send it to Jiang Chen and Hua Kien Quoc.”

"One is the new lover, the other is the biological father, there will definitely be panic. At that time we won't need much, just twenty billion."

"Ten billion will let us live happily for the next half of our lives, the remaining ten billion will be to force Jiang Chen to withdraw the lawsuit, then we will immediately go abroad."

“By then, we will be living on top of other people.”
