Chapter 5 — The Day I Stopped Fasting, They Lost Everything

Updated 10/08/2026 4 min read

Chu Le's nails were sharp and grabbed me straight in the face. I prepared in advance and immediately took a step back. At the same time, my mother and the security guard behind her stepped up and stopped her. The security captain is strong and holds Chu Le's wrist tightly with one hand.

“Calm down!”

“If we continue to move, we will be forced to use coercive measures!”

Chu Le was held back, still struggling frantically, constantly cursing.

"Let me go! The dogs are guarding the door!"

“Hua Tinh, just wait!”

Luu Ngoc Mai also rushed forward, beating and scolding the security guard.

“What are you basing on to take my daughter!”

“Is there still a law?”

The scene became chaotic. Chu Hao finally made a move. But he did not drag his mother and sister. But he rushed straight in front of me, his eyes were red, and his voice was harsh.

"Hua Tinh! Do you have to push things to such an extreme level?"

“Let everyone look at and laugh at our house, so you feel happy?”

“Can't you take a step back?”

I looked at him. Looking at the man standing in front of me, because of his selfish family, he turned to blame me. The last trace of emotion in my heart completely turned to ashes. My voice was terrifyingly calm.

“The people who want to push things to the end, from beginning to end, are you guys.”

“The person who makes me a laughing stock is still you guys.”

“Do you still have the face to question me now?”

I raised the still-rotating phone, pointing it straight at his distorted face.

“Do you think I called security today just to chase you away?”

“I'm letting all of your ugly faces be recorded clearly.”

“These things will be the best evidence in court.”

Chu Hao's pupils shrank sharply. The anger on his face instantly turned into fear. Only then did he realize that I was setting it up from beginning to end. The crying sounds of Luu Ngoc Mai and Chu Le also gradually subsided. They finally learned to be afraid. The surrounding neighbors began to poke their heads out to watch the commotion. The looks and whispers were like needles, piercing them little by little. Chu Hao finally shouted to his mother and sister.

"Don't embarrass yourself anymore! Let's go!"

He was about to pull Luu Ngoc Mai. But she shook her hand away and pointed straight at me, her voice strong on the outside and weak on the inside.

"Hua Tinh! Don't be complacent!"

"Three hundred and eighty-eight thousand eight, right? I don't have one!"

“If you're good, sue!”

"My son has loved you for three years! You haven't paid back three years of his youth!"

"Go to court and see who's afraid of who!"

Throwing back a few threats, she pulled Chu Le, picked up her suitcase and left in a pathetic manner. A riot, finally over. I closed the door, blocking out all outside sounds. I sent the video I just recorded to the lawyer.

“Use this as additional evidence.”

The lawyer quickly responded.

"Okay, Miss Hua. They're digging their own grave."

I leaned my back against the door and let out a long breath. That's right, dig your own grave. But I know, people like Luu Ngoc Mai will not stop easily. She definitely has another trick up her sleeve. The next day, I received a long text message from Chu Hao. The idea is that he knows it's wrong. He said he was suddenly confused so he listened to his mother. In my heart there is only me. Please give me one more chance. Said he would handle things well with his mother and sister. Even promised, He will find a way to return the other 388,000 yuan. Just please don't break up with him, don't sue him. The words humble me to the end. If it were before, maybe I would have softened. But now. I just find it funny. Knowing that from the beginning, there is no need for this step. I don't answer. Immediately block his account. Not long after, the lawyer called me.

“Miss Hua, there is a situation that needs to be discussed.”

“Chu Hao's mother, Ms. Liu Yumei, contacted me this morning.”

“She agreed to mediate.”

I was a bit surprised.

“How does she want to reconcile?”

“She offered a plan.”

The lawyer's voice was a bit strange.

“She said they might not pay the other 388,000 yuan.”

“In return, I ask you to cancel the contract to buy apartment 102.”

“Then come back with Chu Hao to buy apartment 101.”

“On the documents, only your name and Chu Hao are listed.”

“There is also 500,000 yuan of deposit from your family, as a bride price for their family.”
