C1 Cancel the engagement.
"Xin, are you kidding me? Where am I supposed to get this 300,000?"
Liu Fann's eyes were red as if tears were about to come out. The wedding was going to be held in a week, but his in-laws requested an extra 300,000 for the engagement. He immediately went to his mother-in-law's house to humbly beg them to change their minds.
The whole family sat in the living room as they waited for him to come.
When he arrived, Bai Xiaoxin was sitting in a corner, crying,"Liu Fann, I don't like this either. But my brother needs this three hundred thousand as a betrothal gift money. He's going to get married next month, too!"
His mother-in-law, Lee Xiuying, had a gloomy face. She held the bank card that Liu Fann had sent over and said coldly, "Liu Fann, you and Xin are about to get married and make a family. Now you only need to hand me three hundred thousand. Is your love not even worth three hundred thousand?"
"It's not that our family wants to make things difficult for you. You know about our family situation. Xiaofeng only needs this little bit of money to get married. Do you intend to give only Xiaoxin happiness?"
Bai Zhengfeng, his father-in-law, chimed in.
Liu Fann gritted his teeth as he tried to conceal his anger.
"We've already discussed this earlier. I only need to take out 200,000 yuan as a betrothal gift and 100,000 yuan as a deposit to buy a house. Just for those, I already owe too much money to many people. I even took out my mother's retirement money. And now you want me to take 300,000 yuan to give to Xiaofeng as his betrothal guarantee. What else do you want me to do? Rob a bank?"
"You don't have to sound so miserable. I only have one precious daughter. If she marries you, she will have to live with you for the rest of her life. I don't mind that you are from the countryside, but what's wrong with us asking for more betrothal gifts? If you don't have money, you can just take a loan!"
His mother-in-law sneered.
"Brother-in-law, just listen to my mom. It's only 300,000 yuan anyway. Just take more jobs and develop more programs. You will be able to earn money. Mei finally agreed to marry me after so many difficulties. Please help me!"
Bai Xiaofeng, who was playing games at the side, finally spoke up.
Liu Fann was burning with anger. "Then what about me? Do I deserve to be used?"
He turned to look at Bai Xiaoxin. He hoped that his girlfriend of four years would understand.
"Xiaoxin, we've been through so much. I've given you everything you wanted in the past. I even agreed to your extravagant wedding. Are you really going to force me to take out 300,000 yuan right now?"
Bai Xiaoxin looked at his fragile eyes. She felt her heart getting heavier, but she could not answer him.
Her mother immediately glared at her and said coldly, "Xiaoxin, don't be ungrateful. You will be happy if you get married, but what about your brother?"
"Sister, you love me the most, right? Just think of it as helping me!"
Her brother's coquettish tone made Liu Fann even more furious. He wanted to send him flying with a kick.
"Sorry, Liu Fann, I don't want to do this either, but my brother. . . " Bai Xiaoxin's heart softened, and she hesitantly shrugged at Liu Fann.
"Okay, I understand."
Liu Fann sighed softly as if he finally made a decision.
Lee Xiuying's face brightened as she revealed a wide smile. "Liu Fann, it's great that you finally thought about it. As long as you are willing to take out the three hundred thousand, my precious daughter will be yours. I will never interfere with the matters between the two of you."
Bai Zhengfeng nodded his head in satisfaction and smiled.
Although Liu Fann was smiling, his expression looked firm with resolution.
"Sorry for letting you guys down. I can't take out 300,000 yuan. Well, even if I can, I won't give it to you. Also, since you treat marriage as a transaction, then I won't get married!"
After saying that, he snatched the bank card from his mother-in-law's hands.
"I don't care if you want to help your brother by getting exploited. Anyway, I have had enough!" He sneered at Bai Xiaoxin.
