Chang Xiujuan also grew excited, realizing this was another opportunity to bleed her daughter dry.
Chang Xiujuan stepped forward, holding her hand out toward Siao Jia. "Five hundred thousand, and we won't say a word."
Her logic was simple. You want us to keep our mouths shut so you can climb the social ladder? Just give us the money!
They wanted to squeeze every last drop of blood from Siao Jia. Since they were going to part ways eventually, it was only natural to get as much money out of her as they could.
Siao Fan also threatened, "Five hundred thousand. Just five hundred thousand." If they couldn't get the money from Xu Ke, they would take it from Siao Jia. They expected this move to make her panic.
But to their surprise, Siao Jia revealed a sinister smile. "Did you really think I wouldn't be prepared for this?"
"What?" Siao Fan and Chang Xiujuan froze.
"From the moment you called to ask where Xu Ke lived, I knew the bride price had driven you into a corner."
