Chapter 29 The An Family’s Backer

"Let's eat quickly, or the food will get cold," An Lengyan didn't reply to him, but changed the topic.

Lu Li's eyes flashed with disappointment.

After the meal, An Lengyan sat on the sofa in Lu Li's arms and watched TV. The two of them didn't speak, but the atmosphere was good.

The phone rang. An Lengyan paused for a moment, then picked up the phone on the table and answered it. An Tianzhu's voice rang.

"An Lengyan, come back tonight. We have something to talk about." 

An Lengyan answered and hung up the phone. She was a little surprised and raised her eyebrows. What was going on?

Why was An Tianzhu so assured this time?

An Lengyan left Lu Li's arms. He frowned and asked, "What is it?" 

An Lengyan didn't notice his expression. She just shook her head and said, "I have something to do today. I can't accompany you. You can go back first." 

Lu Li didn't say anything. When she turned around, she saw Lu Li's unhappy expression. She shrugged innocently and said with a smile, "I have no choice." 

Lu Li leaned over and kissed her forehead, then left the dormitory.

An Lengyan touched the remaining warmth on her forehead. She had a bad feeling about this. This youth seemed to have put too much effort into her. Things were gradually getting out of her control. After a long while, she finally suppressed the uneasiness in her heart. Her gaze was no longer as shy as before, when she faced the young man. Her gaze looked cold.

That night, she returned to the An family's home as promised. As soon as she entered the door, she saw the family of four sitting in the dining room.

An Zhiyao said with a cold expression, "Do you still have any sense of propriety? How can a junior make elders wait for you?" 

His attitude made An Lengyan raise her eyebrows. She looked at An Tianzhu, who was gloating at An Zhiyao's misfortune, and she pondered about the reason.

"I'm sorry. You didn't inform me of the time," she said matter-of-factly as she walked in with a cold expression.

When she got closer, she unceremoniously sat on the seat to An Zhiyao's left. This was the seat she had been sitting in ever since she returned to the An family's home.

An Zhiyao's expression darkened at her words. He said, "Is this seat somewhere you can sit? Switch with Tianzhu." 

An Tianzhu had already stood up from her seat and stood behind An Lengyan while proudly waiting for her to give up her seat. She was here today to humiliate her, and she didn't think it was enough, so she continued, "Your room has been renovated. However, I'm the one living in that room now. You should find another room to stay in." 

This scene was similar to the scene when An Lengyan had just returned to the An family's home. However, the winner this time was An Tianzhu.

The two of them stood very close to each other. An Lengyan saw that her skin was unintentionally exposed. The red marks on her skin were clearly hickeys and there were even faint whiplash marks. She sneered. "It seems like my sister had a very good night yesterday. Congratulations." 

An Tianzhu's expression darkened and her body trembled slightly. Master Lin was simply inhumane in bed. He had all sorts of perverted methods. Whenever she recalled what had happened last night, she was terrified. If not for the hatred in her heart supporting her, she had even thought that she would die on the bed.

But now, she had gained Master Lin's favor. With his help, An Lengyan was nothing!

"Tianzhu isn't like you. You ran away when the An family was in a crisis. Did you know that because of your willfulness, the An family almost ceased to exist yesterday?!" An Zhiyao stood up abruptly as he pointed at An Lengyan angrily and scolded her.

An Lengyan didn't cower and she sneered. "What a joke. A father sends his daughter to an old man's bed. If the An family can only survive by this method, the An family might as well die." 

An Zhiyao was so angry that he covered his chest and pointed at her while unable to speak.

Ruan Li, who was at the side, quickly supported him and helped him breathe. Then, she looked at her with hatred. "If it weren't for you, your sister wouldn't have suffered so much. She has a heart condition. How could you be so heartless? I really regret having you." 

"You brought this upon yourselves. If it weren't for An Zhiyao's greed, how could such a thing have happened? It was you guys who wanted to betray me, so this happened to An Tianzhu."
