Luc Duc Hai stood next to him, his face darkened and he spoke. "Now that we've found the things, we're done." "Make Chi Cuong pay for it." "Don't make a big deal out of it." Tham Ngoc Cam burst out laughing. The smile was very light, but it made a chill rise in Luc Thua Binh's heart. "From the moment you pulled the entire family of eight people to block my daughter's door, things have become big." The police officer pushed the record in front of Vuong Chi Cuong. "Please report the truth of what happened." Vuong Chi Cuong raised his head and glanced at Luc Thua Binh, with resentment in his eyes. "It's not because of your wife." "She's a woman, holding it in her hand." The house and jewelry were left there unused." "When our whole family came, she didn't even cook meals, she ran off to study." "I just couldn't stand it." Luc Thua Binh's face suddenly became hot. These words were like a slap to his face. Because over the years, even though he didn't say it out loud, in his heart he also thought that way. Ha Ninh is resourceful. Ha Ninh is stable. Ha Ninh is good at cleaning up messes. So she should have done more. She didn't do it, as if she owed someone something. After taking notes, the police officer said that the store had contacted the store and could get the ring back, but needed to compensate the actual amount the store owner had paid and go through the procedures. Tham Ngoc Cam directly asked for the amount. The number is not large. But that number touches people's hearts even more than the ring itself. That's what Ha Ninh bought for herself the year she got married. When it was taken away by Vuong Chi Cuong, the selling value was not even three-tenths of the original price. Tham Ngoc Cam paid the money on the spot. She did not look at anyone in the Luc family. Luc Thua Binh finally opened his mouth. "Mom, let me pay this money." Tham Ngoc Cam looked at him. "The money you need to pay, not only this." Luc Thua Binh's throat was dry. "I know." Tham Ngoc Cam took out the prepared list. Outage recovery or redo fee. Fees for washing bed sheets and checking mattresses. Jewelry redemption fee. Flower pot compensation fee. Fee for cleaning up documents in the ransacked library. And also the cost of changing the lock due to accidental break-in. Each item has photos and videos recorded. When Luc Xuan Mai saw the list, his voice raised. "Are you blackmailing me?" Tham Ngoc Cam didn't say much, but directly gave the list to the police to compile a file. The police officer glanced at her. "Civil compensation can be agreed upon later." "If the agreement fails, a lawsuit can be filed." Luc Duc Hai's face was dark and scary. "You in-law, you really want to destroy the reputation of our Luc family." Ha Minh Vien said faintly. "When you guys did these things, your reputation was ruined by yourself." Luc Xuan Mai suddenly turned to Luc Thua Binh. "You say one sentence. "If you still consider me your sister, tell Ha Ninh to withdraw her application." Luc Thua Binh's fingers slowly tightened. He thought of the list on the morning table. Think of Ha Ninh's eyes when she pulled her suitcase and stood at the door. She did not argue. She just pulled him out of the place where he was still hiding behind her. He finally said in a low voice. "Sister, I have no right to decide this matter." Luc Xuan Mai was stunned. Luc Duc Hai was indignant. "You have no right to decide?" "You are her husband." "If a husband can't control his wife, what kind of system is there?" Luc Thua Binh raised his eyes. "Dad." "She is not my subordinate." "Nor is she a servant of our Luc family." When this sentence came out, he himself had to pause for a moment. Because over the years, he has never talked about Ha Ninh like that in front of his family. Tham Ngoc Cam

not showing the least bit of joy. She just looked at him coldly. "Now that I'm talking, it's too late." Luc Thua Binh's heart sank heavily. The night wind outside the police station is very stuffy. When the Luc family walked out, no one said a word. Vuong Chi Cuong must continue to stay and receive treatment. Luc Xuan Mai led the children to sit down and cry on the steps. Truong My Quyen held Tieu Bao, her face full of resentment. Luc Duc Hai took out his phone and started calling relatives. "The second guy's wife turned away and refused to accept acquaintances." "Relatives came to stay at the house for a few days, and they called the police to arrest them." Tham Ngoc Cam stood not far away and directly turned on the recording. Luc Duc Hai saw her movements and his voice suddenly choked. Ha Minh Vien said. "If you spread false rumors, we will release all the evidence." Luc Duc Hai's face was extremely unsightly. Luc Thua Binh stood between the two sides, only feeling like a gap had opened under his feet. On one side are parents and sisters. On one side is his wife who has been in debt for six years. He wants to call Ha Ninh. But her phone was sealed at the training site. He can only leave a message on the training site's landline. After the call was connected, the teacher on duty politely said, "It's not an urgent personal matter, please don't pass on the message."
