Lu Meng looked at Li Jingming.
At this time, the sky had already grown dimmer, with Li Jingming's back against the light, his facial contours appeared even more distinct.
Lu Meng was engulfed in shadow, appearing somewhat blurry, yet her eyes shone astonishingly bright: "I heard my dad say that Lu Yi's family raised more conditions, something about demanding meat or whatever. If it doesn't work out, just buy it for them. Otherwise, if you can't bring back a bride tomorrow, it'll be a laughingstock."
Li Jingming frowned, looking distressed.
He frantically ran his fingers through his hair: "Neither option is good; the Lu family is doing this on purpose. I really... Now my dad and mom are angry, and I don't know what to do."
Li Jingming was genuinely troubled. Agreeing to the conditions might lead to further extortion by the Lu family.
