Listening to her mother's words, An Nuan couldn't help but let out a low growl, feeling an inexplicable sense of humiliation wash over her.
Especially with the man she had just married standing right in front of her, how could her mother treat her like a commodity to be sold?
Such a mother was truly rare.
She didn't understand why her mother had become this way.
"Mom, are you done playing around?"
An Nuan looked at the woman in front of her, who seemed somewhat dazed. Disappointment filled her eyes. "You weren't like this before."
Why had she changed so much?
With no skills to speak of, why did she choose to gamble?
"I wasn't like this before?"
An Nuan's words seemed to strike a nerve, and You Fengqiu laughed sarcastically.
"Don't talk to me about the past. What good did being honest and self-disciplined do me? I was polite to others and conducted myself properly, and what happened? The Lu Family went bankrupt, and your father was killed! So tell me, what good did it do to be upright? Nuan Nuan, you tell me, what good is it?"
You Fengqiu asked passionately, her earlier tremors forgotten as she became animated in her anger.
A surge of anger welled up inside her, and she grabbed An Nuan's arm, shaking it vigorously. A flicker of disappointment crossed An Nuan's eyes.
"Yes, the Lu Family is bankrupt, and my father is gone, but as long as we work hard, we can still live well. Haven't I earned enough money over the years? I gave up my studies and entered the entertainment industry to fight for us. All the money I've made has gone to pay off your gambling debts. I may not have earned much, but it was enough to buy a small apartment in C City. But now? We don't even have a home."
An Nuan growled, her heart raging.
She wanted to scream too; she had her own burdens to bear, but who could she talk to?
No one would feel sorry for her. Her own mother drained her like a vampire, consuming every bit of her vitality.
Now, she had been sidelined, unable to land even minor roles. She had no money left to pay off debts.
"Mom, I have some news for you. This morning, I was put on ice by the company. They won't terminate my contract or offer me any roles. I can't pay your gambling debts anymore. Whether you can keep your hands off the table depends on your own willpower from now on."
An Nuan said coldly, her heart already feeling numb.
After years of repaying debts, she was exhausted.
She had no savings left. With no roles this month, she didn't even know where she would stay next month; unable to pay rent meant she risked being thrown out at any moment.
In the past, she had taken every minor role just to repay the debts. Looking back now, she felt foolish.
Her so-called good mother was willing to sacrifice Lu An Nuan; why should she deceive herself into thinking there was still hope for her mother?
"Snowed in?"
A cool voice suddenly rang out, and Chu Lingchuan looked at An Nuan with curiosity, a gentle smile gracing his face. "Money is not an issue; I can help you with that. But you, I want."
The possessive declaration on Chu Lingchuan's enchanting face was unmistakable.
An Nuan glanced over, instantly captivated by his carefree aura.
He was a remarkably handsome man. Unlike Ye Yunfeng's beauty, which exuded a calm elegance, this man radiated a wild and unrestrained charm.
An Nuan looked at Chu Lingchuan without flinching or avoiding his gaze. For a brief moment, she was taken aback by his allure but felt no hint of materialism.
After a while, An Nuan smiled and said, "I’m married."
