Chapter 2: Threat“200,000 dollars would be enough for your mother’s surgery. Don’t feel indignant. After all, without my husband’s resources, you won’t even have the chance to marry into the Yan family. You should be glad that you look like my daughter! Cherish this opportunity! Otherwise, relying on your own work and a few acres of land your family has, you might not be able to earn such a large amount of money in your lifetime.” When Li Meihua saw that Lu An’an was unwilling to agree, her attitude immediately changed. “I’m discussing with you because I hope that you’ll be sensible. Don’t get on my bad side.”

Was this woman in front of her still her gentle aunt? Why did she change a lot? Lu An’an broke down. Although she was willing to repay her aunt’s family, she definitely wouldn’t do it in this way! She also didn’t think that this was good for her cousin. Didn’t her aunt just say that man was from the most powerful mafia family in the west? If he found out that they deceived him, wouldn’t he be angry?

However, Li Meihua didn’t think so. Gu Anning ran away, but the engagement could not be canceled. The wedding had to be held on time. Lu An’an was the best candidate. She had to marry him even if she didn’t want to!

“Don’t forget, your brother Lu Anhuai is still in my husband’s company. His job is very important. If anything happens, no one can protect him!” Li Meihua looked at her newly manicured nails and sneered. “Think about it.” Having finished the sentence, she left arrogantly.

As soon as Li Meihua left, her father walked in with a worried look and asked, “What did your aunt say to you?”

Lu An’an didn’t dare to tell the truth. Her father had done a lot for this family and he was too tired. As a daughter, she didn’t want him to worry, so she smiled and said, “Nothing. She wants to introduce boyfriends to me.”

Her father heaved a sigh of relief and looked at his beautiful daughter in front of him. His eyes were filled with love. “Of course, you can date. You have to find someone who loves you. If you meet someone you like, remember to bring him to me. I will be happy for you.”

This sentence almost made Lu An’an cry. Her parents were the best in the world, but the reality was too cruel to her family. After comforting her father, Lu An’an went to see her mother. She looked exactly like her aunt, but due to the torture of cancer, she looked much older than her pampered aunt. This made Lu An’an feel even worse.

Her mother needed a kidney transplant. If she had 200,000 dollars, her mother would probably recover from illness. She couldn’t help but think about it. She didn’t agree with Li Meihua’s threat, but she couldn’t deny that she really needed money. Just as she was wavering, the police called her father and said that her brother was suspected of embezzling public funds. Her brother was detained.

Her brother, Lu Anhuai, worked in her uncle’s company, but he was just a normal clerk who had no access to public funds. Her father tried his best to explain for her brother, but it was useless. Only Lu An’an knew that this was just her aunt’s trick. They wanted to force her to marry that man.

Before leaving, her aunt said to her, “Call me when you’ve straightened out your thinking. I’ve prepared the wedding dress and ring for you. You look so much like Anning. You can use hers. I’ll give you the money after the wedding. If you ran away, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

Now Lu An’an knew that other than her mother, the rest of her family was also sighted. Lu An’an was no longer sad. She took out her phone and dialed a familiar number. “Let off my brother, and I’ll agree to marry that man.”

Lu Anhuai was released that night. The company’s legal department said that it was a misunderstanding. They dropped the charges after paying the fine. However, Lu Anhuai had already been threatened once in the detention center. Therefore, he knew that his sister had made a huge sacrifice for him and the family. For the first time in his life, he felt that he was too incompetent to protect his sister and family.

“You can’t agree.” Lu Anhuai looked at his sister and said indignantly, “That man, Yan Yunge, he is a complete pervert!”
