Of course Liu Jinyue was jealous; she was jealous of all the women who were doing better than her.

"Why did you come in person, sir?"

Lu Fan did not get up, which was very impolite.

But Liu Jinyue knew she was there to ask for a favor, so she couldn't make too many demands.

However, Lu Fan's rudeness even included an insult to her age?

If Liu Jinyue hadn't been on a mission, she would have turned and left by now. She gritted her teeth in anger, but could only listen silently.

“Mr. Lu, you must know why I’ve come here this time.”

Lu Fan chuckled and said directly, "No, I don't know, after all, I didn't raise a son with the bad habit of being ill-mannered."

Liu Jinyue had never been so humiliated in her entire life.

Even among all the women Wang Qiying kept, none dared to be so arrogant in front of her.

She gave Lu Fan a deep look, then swallowed her anger.

“Mr. Lu, I’ve only come to redeem my second son’s hand.”

“He’s waiting to get stitches now. Just tell us how much money you want to pay us back.”

Liu Jinyue was determined to protect Wang Meng's hand and the fourth branch's business. She was prepared for Lu Fan to make exorbitant demands. However...

Lu Fan's reaction was completely unexpected.

He gave her a strange look, then burst into laughter:

"My God, did you come here just to give me money? Look at me, do you even recognize me? You actually think I'd be short of money?"

"Or do you think the money from the fourth branch of the Wang family can quell my anger?" Liu Jinyue could no longer maintain her composure; she tore off her disguise and glared at Lu Fan with resentment.

"So what exactly do you want in order to return my son's hand?" Lu Fan looked down at Liu Jinyue.

"You want me to give your son's hand back? Sure, no problem!"

“But I need to see the ledgers for the portion of the business that Wang Qiying took over.” Liu Jinyue’s breath hitched; she clearly hadn’t expected Lu Fan to make such a request. “Why?”

Lu Fan chuckled, looking at Liu Jinyue with a half-smile:

"Why? Whether it's out of interest or a desire to get a share of the pie, you're the one asking me for a favor now, so find the reason yourself."

Liu Jinyue bit her lip tightly, refusing to budge an inch:

"I'll give you fifty million."

Lu Fan looked at her as if she were a joke.

Liu Jinyue was the first to break down: "Okay, one hundred million? Five hundred million?" She kept increasing the amount.

However, Lu Fan simply refused to take the bait.

Liu Jinyue had her own thoughts:

Lu Fan, of course, refused to take the bait. He knew what business Wang Qi was in, so he knew that the deal was worth tens of millions in profit.

But how could Liu Jinyue dare to actually agree to Lu Fan's words?

She was not only afraid of losing her business, but also afraid that the Wang family would get really angry and kick her and her two children out of the Wang family.

Liu Jinyue gritted her teeth, her gaze fixed intently on Lu Fan:

“I don’t agree to this condition. I’m giving you this final notice: if you don’t return my son’s hand, I will report it to the authorities, and you’ll be in deep trouble.”

However, to Liu Jinyue's surprise, Lu Fan wasn't afraid at all. He even clicked on a video on his phone.

It was the scene where Wang Meng attacked Lu Fan, only to be beaten up and have his hand cut off by Lu Fan instead!

The video, which wasn't available to the official sources, ended up in Lu Fan's hands.

Seeing her son suffer, Liu Jinyue's eyes welled up with tears again.

Their hatred for Lu Fan deepened, and they became even more afraid of this King Yama.

Lu Fan then spoke:

"Listen to what your son, Wang Meng, has to say!"

"Oh, hire someone to kill someone, and use a privately modified vehicle to cause a traffic accident?"

"With such irrefutable evidence, I think even your son can't escape punishment, right?"

Liu Jinyue's plan was to threaten Lu Fan, but in the end, she was the one being threatened.

"Go and announce it. Let's see if I go in first, or your crippled son."

"Furthermore, since I want the ledgers, I must already have relevant evidence in my possession."

"If you really dared to alarm the authorities, you would have done so long ago. Why wait until now?"

Because even Liu Jinyue's hands aren't clean.

The business they run in the fourth branch of the family (883) is completely shady and therefore they dare not contact the authorities.

Lu Fan took advantage of this loophole for no reason.

Liu Jinyue was completely bewildered. She didn't know whether she should sacrifice some insignificant "secrets" or let her son become truly disabled.

No matter which path she chooses, the rest of her life will not be easy.

If Wang Meng is crippled, her relationship with her son will inevitably plummet.

Wang Meng always felt that she favored Wang Xuan.

Now we're facing this choice again.

And what about betraying the royal family's secrets?

Liu Jinyue suddenly shivered.

At that time, Wang Meng might not be the only one who was crippled!

Liu Jinyue had no idea what kind of bad luck she had recently encountered.

Why did her life become so miserable?

First she lost her husband, who was the pillar of her family, and then her two sons.

Her voice was trembling with tears:

"Mr. Lu, I'm kneeling down here for you. Please spare me and my children."
