Lu Qian called her dad, asking for several thousand at the start, scaring the couple quite a bit.
Lu Qian just couldn't stand Chuzheng living better than her, and now she was causing trouble for money.
The other end of the phone yelled at her, refusing to give her so much money to squander.
"But Lu Chuzheng is staying here!" Lu Qian protested, "Why can't I stay? Mom and Dad, if you don't let me stay, I'll have to sleep on the street. Can you really bear that?"
"Lu Chuzheng?" The aunt on the phone was puzzled, "She's here too?"
Lu Qian exaggerated the encounter she had with Chuzheng earlier and told her aunt, emphasizing how much Chuzheng looked down on her.
The aunt was also easily provoked, especially when there were past grievances involved.
If it was before, the aunt might have shamelessly visited to make Father Lu and Mother Lu book a room for Lu Qian too.
But now the aunt knew it wasn't realistic. She gritted her teeth, "How much is that room per night?"
