Chapter 8
Chapter 8 — The day my sister-in-law tore up the debt papers, I caused the entire Giang family to collapse
Trieu Que Lan is not very literate. But she knows how to read names. She stared at the line "recipient", her lips trembled, then slowly read each word.
“Lam… Van… Tinh?”
Immediately, she raised her head and looked at Giang Phong.
“Who is this child?”
“Who is this woman?!”
Giang Phong's face was no longer simply pale. It's a desperate ash color. It was as if all his strength had been drained from him, he slumped limply into the chair, his eyes were tired, he couldn't say a word. Giang Duc Hai's body also staggered slightly. He grabbed the document, quickly put on his glasses and read carefully. His hands trembled even more violently. Everything is clearly written in black and white ink. The person in charge of the loan is me, Tran Hi. But below there is an authorization letter. It clearly states that all rights to use the loan are assigned to Giang Phong. And each loan payment... coincides with an amount of money Giang Duc Hai transfers to Giang Phong's account. The most fatal thing is… All the money ends up going into the same account. The account owner's name is... Lam Van Tinh. For two years. The total was just 300,000 yuan. The whole tea shop fell into dead silence. It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Trieu Que Lan's breathing began to become heavy. She was like a maddened female animal, suddenly rushing straight towards Giang Phong. A resounding slap hit him hard in the face.
“Animals!”
“Do you still have the face to look at me and your father?!”
“Do you still have the face to look at Tran Hi?!”
“Your parents work hard to give you money…”
“Let you pay the rent…”
“As a result, you took it to another woman?!”
Giang Phong's head was knocked off. Half of the face immediately became red and swollen. He didn't fight back. No excuses either. Can't justify it anymore. Trieu Que Lan went completely crazy, beating and cursing his son.
“I will kill this ungrateful thing!”
“The Jiang family's face has been ruined by you!”
Giang Duc Hai slammed on the table. The tea cup was also shaken until it bounced up.
“Haven't you felt embarrassed enough yet?!”
His voice was filled with unprecedented anger and fatigue. Trieu Que Lan immediately stopped. She looked at her husband, then looked at her son. Finally, he burst into tears and cried loudly. The cry was both mournful and desperate. There's no longer any sour, satisfying lemon like before. I sat and watched the drama before my eyes without a wave in my heart. Even found it funny. This is the Giang family that keeps saying they want to make me lose my reputation. The result was just in the blink of an eye... They personally performed the biggest joke for the whole world to see. Giang Duc Hai took a deep breath and looked at me with extremely complicated eyes. There was a concussion. There is also caution. Perhaps he never thought that... The daughter-in-law that the Giang family always thought she could oppress at will... actually held such a fatal card in her hand. He spoke hoarsely.
“As the Giang family, we are sorry for you.”
“How do you want to compensate… just say it.”
I lifted the cold cup of tea and took a small sip.
“I don't need anything.”
“I just need a divorce.”
“The house and car are both my pre-marital assets.”
“Giang Phong left empty-handed.”
“I will handle this loan contract myself.”
“I don't want to have any more entanglements with the Giang family.”
The conditions I give are clear and precise clear. Don't give them any hope. Giang Duc Hai closed his eyes. His face was full of pain. He understood very well... The result I gave was the most lenient. If I make all this evidence public... Giang Phong will not only lose his morality. You can even be prosecuted for financial fraud. At that time... Giang's family will have their daughter in prison and their son's family ruined. That is truly a disaster that destroys everything. He gritted his teeth and blurted out exactly one word.
"I agree."
Trieu Que Lan's crying immediately stopped. She looked at her husband in disbelief.
“Are you crazy?!”
“That's hundreds of thousands of yuan…”
“Did you really let him take it like that?!”
“Shut up!”
Giang Duc Hai roared loudly, making Trieu Que Lan jump. He pointed straight at Giang Phong and scolded.
“Look at what kind of son you raised!”
“What else do you want?!”
“Want everyone to know that he had an affair in his marriage…”
“Do you still take money from the family to raise a baby?!”
Trieu Que Lan was completely silent. She slumped down in her chair as if her spirits were drained. I stood up.
“If the discussion is over…”
“Then I'll go first.”
