"Ten million?" Lu Xueqing's face turned pale instantly.
This was an astronomical sum for her.
Su Yingxue quickly added, "Xueqing, don't worry. I have some savings here, which were originally intended for purchasing supplies for the clinic. But saving lives is the priority now, so I can take out that first! As for the other five million, you can ask your relatives and friends for help."
Lu Xueqing said with a grateful expression, "Yingxue, thank you! I will remember your kindness. I will find a way to save the remaining five million myself!"
"Okay! I'll go back first and withdraw the money, then we'll deliver it together!"
"good!"
Watching Su Yingxue drive away, Lu Xueqing gritted her teeth and turned back to the villa.
Five million is no small sum; she couldn't come up with it herself, so she had to ask her grandmother and everyone else to help raise the money!
"What, five million?"
Upon hearing this number, Grandma immediately waved her hand, "Don't even think about it! The company is short of funds right now and can't come up with that much money!"
"Exactly! Don't let a good-for-nothing ruin our business!"
"Why doesn't he take a piss and look at himself in the mirror? Is he really worth five million?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
...
Lu Xueqing walked out of the Lu family villa, looking dejected.
I didn't have much hope to begin with.
Those taunts made her feel like she couldn't breathe.
Now that her husband is imprisoned, no one is willing to lend her money.
Such is the coldness and indifference of human relationships.
"Yes, the store still has bankbooks, property deeds, and my jewelry. Let's see if there's anything else that can be quickly converted into cash!"
Lu Xueqing's eyes lit up, and she quickly took a taxi back to the massage parlor.
By this time, Zhang Ailan and Lu Xiaoya had already returned to the shop.
Earlier, after Zhang Ailan came out of the hotel, she saw the Camry and found Lu Xiaoya inside. In a panic, she drove the car back.
Lu Xiaoya also learned about what had happened at the hotel.
"Sister, you're back. Where's Lin Yu?" Lu Xiaoya asked in a trembling voice.
Lu Xueqing bit her lip and shook her head, saying, "I don't know either. I guess Young Master Lu kidnapped her? I've already asked Yingxue to find someone, but they said they want ten million! Yingxue can help me with five million, but I have to raise the remaining five million before dawn!"
After Lu Xueqing finished speaking, she hurriedly opened the drawer and started searching.
"What? Xueqing, you're going to raise another five million for him?" Zhang Ailan jumped up from the sofa and quickly grabbed the property certificate from the drawer.
"Mom, give it to me! I need this property certificate to go to the loan company. I'm sure I can get a loan!" Lu Xueqing pleaded tearfully.
"Daughter, are you crazy? You're going to borrow money from loan sharks for him?" Zhang Ailan gripped the property certificate tightly. "That good-for-nothing, he ate our food and used our money, he deserves to die. Are you suggesting that because of him, our whole family should die?"
"Mom, give it to me!" Lu Xueqing hurriedly reached out to grab it, but Zhang Ailan pressed the property certificate firmly under her body. Lu Xueqing stamped her feet in frustration but was helpless.
"Sis, this is my New Year's money. I just withdrew it from the ATM next door. Here you go!"
At this moment, Lu Xiaoya came in from outside with a stack of money, about ten or twenty thousand yuan.
“Xiaoya…” Lu Xueqing’s eyes welled up with tears. She never expected that her sister, who had always been at odds with her husband, would stand up for her at such a crucial moment.
However, this amount of money is just a drop in the bucket!
Taking advantage of Lu Xueqing's confusion, Zhang Ailan suddenly attacked again and snatched the money from Lu Xiaoya's hand.
"Mom, what are you doing! This is my brother-in-law's life-saving money!" Lu Xiaoya said anxiously.
"What brother-in-law! He's a good-for-nothing. How come you've become obsessed with him too? Are you two sisters trying to drive me crazy today?" Zhang Ailan shouted angrily.
"I don't care. It's your business if you want to save him, but don't even think about touching a single penny of the family's money! I won't spend any money on that good-for-nothing!" Zhang Ailan said through gritted teeth.
"Mom..." Lu Xueqing said helplessly, tears streaming down her face, "I beg you, please give me the property certificate, I really have no other choice!"
"Get away! Get away!" Zhang Ailan kicked her feet incessantly.
But then she suddenly remembered something, her eyes darting around, and she blurted out, "By the way, isn't that Young Master Wu pursuing you? He's the nephew of the Rose Queen, he must be rolling in money, why don't you go find him!"
"Wu Wenliang?" Lu Xueqing's eyes lit up.
right!
How could she not have thought of that!
Wu Wenliang is pursuing her; he's even willing to buy her a luxury car worth millions. Borrowing five million wouldn't be difficult for him either.
Thinking of this, Lu Xueqing quickly picked up the phone and called Wu Wenliang.
At this moment, in a suite of a luxury hotel.
Wu Wenliang had just returned from the hospital and loosened his tie to rest when he received a call from Lu Xueqing.
"Hehe, Xueqing, calling me so late, do you miss me?" Wu Wenliang couldn't help but sneer. Thinking of Lu Xueqing's beautiful figure, he couldn't help but feel a little hot inside.
"Wenliang, can you do me a favor?"
"Oh? You're having some trouble? Tell me, what do you need me to do?" Wu Wenliang asked with a smile.
"I... I need five million, in cash, and I need it before dawn!" Lu Xueqing hesitated for a moment, but still said it.
"Five million?" Wu Wenliang frowned, then couldn't help but curl his lips into a slight smile.
He knew that Lu Xueqing must have encountered some difficulties.
Given his net worth, five million is really nothing.
However, he had always harbored designs on Lu Xueqing, so how could he miss such a good opportunity?
"Xueqing, I can lend you five million!"
