Chapter 10 — The Fish Was Dumped Into The Trash, The Marriage Also Ended
I took out my phone to take pictures.
“A set of six.”
“The market price is about 8,000 yuan.”
“Luc Giai Giai, compensation.”
Her eyes were bloodshot.
"I have no money!"
“Then write a debt note.”
Mother-in-law rushed forward.
“Stop forcing it!”
“His marriage was ruined by you!”
I looked at the broken pieces of porcelain all over the ground.
“When you guys destroyed my things…”
“Have you ever thought about not forcing me?”
After the lawsuit documents are filed with the court. Finally, Luc Minh Xuyen also started to panic. He sent me a very long text message. First of all, say that five years of love are not easy. Then he said his mother was just a tofu knife. Finally, he promised that as long as I withdrew the lawsuit, he would let Luc Giai Giai move out. I only answer in two words. 【No withdrawal.】 The tasting party before the opening day of Xuan Hoa Lau was held on Saturday. Tham Duong's family meal experience class was also promoted on the same day. I'm in charge of the main dish. Master Liang is in charge of overall control. Before opening time. Director Truong brought a group of people from the company. Luc Minh Xuyen walked at the end. The nameplate has been taken down. Looks like a temporary assistant. See me. An awkward look appeared on his face. Director Truong proactively shook my hand.
“The company has already handled the previous matter.”
“Today we will only discuss Xuan Hoa Lau.”
I nodded. Luc Minh Xuyen stood next to him, his voice very soft. I did not respond. The official tasting session begins. The first dish brought up was carp with sweet and sour sauce. As soon as the fish dish was placed on the table, the sweet and sour aroma spread throughout the space. Director Truong took a piece. His eyes immediately lit up.
“This dish has a highlight.”
Master Luong looked at everyone.
“In the future, on Xuan Hoa Lau's menu, this fish dish will be named Hua Nam Chi.”
Luc Minh Xuyen suddenly raised his head. Director Truong turned to look at him.
“Luc Minh Xuyen.”
“Why have you never said that your wife is so skilled before?”
Luc Minh Xuyen forced a smile.
“She lives quite a private life.”
I calmly continued.
“It's not a secret.”
“It's because he thinks cooking is not qualified to appear at the banquet table.”
The whole dining table immediately fell silent. Director Truong put down his chopsticks.
“That statement is inappropriate.”
Luc Minh Xuyen quickly explained:
“I didn't mean that.”
Master Luong slowly wiped his hands.
“Cooking is not qualified to be on the banquet table?”
“So what party are you attending today?”
Someone nearby couldn't help but laugh. Luc Minh Xuyen's ears turned red. After the tasting session ends. Director Truong and Tham Duong began discussing cooperation. Luc Minh Xuyen stopped me in the hallway.
“Do I have to embarrass you in front of so many people?”
“I only speak the truth.”
“Director Truong has transferred you out of the project team.”
“Are you satisfied?”
“That is the company's decision.”
He stared at me.
“You weren't like that before.”
“Before, you always thought about me.”
“Before, I also thought you would think about me.”
His voice softened.
“I really know I was wrong.”
“That fish... you shouldn't have let mom throw it away.”
“In the future, I will eat whatever you want to eat with me.”
“The house is not for sale anymore.”
“Giai Giai will also move out.”
“We start again from the beginning Is that Okay?"
I looked towards the end of the hallway. There hangs an old photo. In the photo, my father stands next to Master Luong when he was young. In his hand was a plate of carp with sweet and sour sauce. I turned to look at Luc Minh Xuyen.
“Do you know what my father's full name is?”
He was stunned.
“Full name.”
He couldn't answer. Five years of marriage. He didn't know my father's full name. I don't know the anniversary of my mother's death. Didn't know I was allergic to pork trotters. Didn't know I like sour taste. He just knows I will pay the mortgage. Know I will cook. Knowing that I will take care of the Luc family for him. I walked past him.
“What I want is not to start over.”
“I just want to continue taking advantage.”
The Luc family still hasn't moved. Every day, my mother-in-law would stand in the residential area and tell the neighbors that I had become rich by clinging to Xuan Hoa Lau and then began to criticize my ex-husband. Luc Giai Giai also posted articles online. Say I took advantage of the story to gain fame and stole her fiance. But the post was quickly dug up by netizens and the previous livestream video was dug up. The scene where she wears my mother's necklace. The scene where she shows off the dowry car that will be transferred to her name. The scene where her engagement was canceled by Trieu Minh right at Xuan Hoa Lau. All are merged into one complete video.
