An Chengmao snorted coldly.
An Ruyu tilted her head back and finished the wine in her glass. The wine was very strong and made her eyes instantly mist over. "We are father and daughter, why must we kill each other like this?"
"As long as I live well, your life won't be bad either. You know that the heir of the Chu family treats me differently. When I grow up and marry into the family, you'll get much more than five million."
An Chengmao pondered for a moment. The logic was sound, but he remained skeptical of An Ruyu's words, knowing how ruthless his daughter could be.
"I don't understand, but I just want the money. If you don't give me the money, I'll hand over this evidence!"
An Ruyu had to grit her teeth to keep from losing her temper. Why were all her teammates so incompetent?
Not only did nothing change after her rebirth, but her life was even worse than in her previous life, which was something she absolutely could not allow to happen.
As long as An Chengmao is kept in check, she will have plenty of opportunities to deal with him once she takes over Chu Yuan.
"Dad, I'll give you the money, but not now. You know Mom's in jail, and the Xu family doesn't recognize me. I don't have a single penny right now. You can only wait until I take down Chu Yuan, right?"
An Chengmao fell silent again.
An Ruyu pressed her advantage, continuing to tempt An Chengmao, "Yes, I am also heartbroken about what happened to Grandpa, Grandma, and my brothers, but the most important thing is to hold onto the money in your hands. Dad, don't you know this best?"
An Chengmao's expression softened.
An Ruyu wasn't a child; she had an excellent eye for people. Just by looking at An Chengmao's expression, she knew he had succeeded. She scoffed inwardly but feigned concern, saying, "Dad, if you're worried, we can sign a contract. From now on, we'll be in this together, won't we?"
"Peng—"
The door to the private room was kicked open, and a group of police officers rushed in. An Chengmao and An Ruyu had only one thought in their minds.
An Ruyu: He called the police? He handed over the evidence?!
An Chengmao: This little brat called the police to frame him?!
The two of them were speculating about each other's intentions. An Ruyu, her face pale and innocent, said, "Uncle Policeman, what happened? I was just having dinner with my dad."
"Are you An Ruyu?"
An Ruyu nodded.
The lead police officer gave a signal, and someone immediately handcuffed An Ruyu. "This is an arrest warrant. If you have any questions, go to the police station."
A group of people left in a flash, leaving An Chengmao abandoned in the private room, slumped in a chair. What happened?
An Chengmao didn't know, and neither did An Ruyu. When she went to the police station, she thought about things being exposed, but she never thought that An Chengmao would be the one to inform on her.
An Chengmao was using that evidence to blackmail her, so why would she call the police? What else could she possibly have done to warrant these people arresting a little girl like her?
"Officers, even if you arrest me, you have to give me an explanation, right?"
The police officer stared at An Ruyu with eyes as sharp as an eagle. In fact, of all the people he had arrested, she was definitely the youngest criminal he had ever apprehended.
"Someone reported..." The police officer paused, then looked at An Ruyu strangely and continued, "Ms. Mingyue reported that you hired someone to commit murder, and we have the evidence."
Of course, under normal circumstances they would not disclose the whistleblower's information, but the woman insisted on making it public, so they had no choice but to comply.
Bright moon?
An Ruyu's face twisted in pain, her innocent expression vanishing. Did ruining her really make Mingyue happy?!
