Chapter 2

"Isn't your family bankrupt right now? And being with Danish is the best choice." Nancy said it without hesitation. It made Lonan feel very sick.

Danish approached Nency. That man also looked very relaxed and immediately wrapped his arms around Nancy's waist. "Then, what are you doing here? You're an uninvited guest who shouldn't be in this place."

Lonan stared at the two with a cold gaze. But he soon remembered the purpose of coming there in the first place. Lonan suppressed his anger and tried to think clearly. He wanted to save his father immediately.

For a moment, Lonan ignored their relationship. He looked at Nancy and still hoped that Nancy would still help him because they used to have a good relationship.

"Nancy, I have always given you whatever you wanted. And now I've come to need your help. I want to borrow five hundred thousand dollars from you. I will pay you back later." Lonan was hesitant to say it, but he knew that Nancy had that money.

Nancy and Danish looked at each other. A big laugh soon came from them. Lonan's words seemed to be a joke to both of them.

Nancy shook her head repeatedly. She noticed Lonan's appearance, which indeed looked different from usual. "Look, you even really look like a hobo right now. Everyone has found out about your family's bankruptcy."

Danish laughed back at him. "Lonan, are you such a hobo now that you have to beg?" He gave Lonan a very low look. "It's a shame to have a friend like you, Lonan."

Danish removed his hand from Nancy's waist. He walked to the center of the room and spoke loudly. "Hey, look who's here. A man we know as Lonan Karran, he's currently bankrupt and has become a miserable hobo."

Everyone heard Danish's voice until they all looked at Lonan. In an instant, Lonan became the center of attention at the party.

Some people started whispering. "Oh yes, I heard that the family has fallen into poverty. I almost didn't believe it." A man wearing boxers spoke to his woman.

"I have heard the news. It has even spread. He is bankrupt, and I heard all his assets have been seized." The woman responded.

Lonan squeezed the hem of his shirt. He swallowed the bitter taste as well as the deep shame. But he still tried to suppress his anger. "Remember what we went through, I always tried to be good to you. At least, for my father's sake, lend me five hundred thousand dollars."

Both of them fell silent again, but a bitter smile appeared on Danish's face. The man seemed to be thinking about something. "Alright, we will lend you the money."

Lonan looked happy at the moment. He thought that he would soon be out of trouble. But Nancy looked at Danish in confusion. She did not know what Danish was currently thinking about.

Danish walked over and stopped in front of Lonan. He tapped Lonan on the shoulder and said, "If you want me to help you, you must hold your breath for five minutes in the water." Danish lowered his hand and pointed towards the pool.

Lonan stared at the pool. Instantly, hesitation attacked her. He had never held his breath long enough in a pool before. He knew that this would be very dangerous and fatal. But he had no other choice. His entire family had refused to help. Meanwhile, Lonan needed the money urgently.

Then he looked at Danish and nodded. "Alright, I'll do it."

Lonan was getting ready to get into the pool. But before that, he looked at Danish and Lonan in turn. Then he spoke, "I'll really do it. Hold my breath for five minutes, but you must lend me the money."

Nancy nodded. She felt that this would be an entertaining and fun spectacle. Then she walked over and spoke, "Listen to me, everyone. Whoever is in the pool, hurry up. I'll give this man five hundred thousand dollars if he can hold his breath for five minutes in the water.

Everyone cheered at that. They began to rise to the surface one by one as if to let Lonan do his thing. They knew it was ridiculous, but they didn't care. They just needed some fun entertainment.

Lonan began to lower his feet into the water. A chill began to run through his body. His heart hesitates, but he has to start submerging his body in the water. But before that, Lonan immediately inhaled as much oxygen as possible, and finally, his body was completely immersed in the water.

Meanwhile, some people had been ready with cell phones and had recorded the incident. "He is a stupid man. How is he going to hold his breath for five minutes in there? It's going to kill him."

"He will definitely surface soon. It would be impossible for someone to hold their breath for five minutes."

Lonan could still hear the almost indistinct voice. Until more and more, his ears were ringing loudly.

Lonan tried hard to stay underwater. He was doing everything for his father. But he knew that holding his breath for five minutes was too hard and would be bad for him. In the worst case scenario, he would die. For the first minute, she could get through it easily. But holding himself underwater for five minutes was a very long time. And in the second minute, Lonan felt his chest tight. His head seemed to be beating rapidly. The more he held back, the more his head hurt, as if he could feel his head was about to burst. Even the heartbeat in his chest was slow. This was a state that really tormented him.

Lonan was about to give up, but he restrained himself. This almost made him faint. Until just before he lost consciousness, Lonan heard something else.

Lonan blinked slowly. He saw a blue screen in front of him.

Lonan was shocked to see the strange thing in front of him. With the remnants of his consciousness, Lonan could see it clearly.

[SURFACING!]
