“In order to let you fall into the trap, I specially arranged this scene for you. How about it? Aren’t their acting skills very good? I knew that with your personality, you would definitely have a backup plan. It’s just that I couldn’t find where the money was hiding these few days. You’re willing to take the initiative to hand it over. At least your attitude is good. Hahahaha!”
Lu Ming tore apart this facade and revealed the cruel reality to Lu Yaohua. Lu Yaohua was almost on the verge of breaking down as he roared. No matter who it was, he probably wouldn’t be able to calm down after knowing everything was a setup. He struggled wildly. If not for the fact that his illness had completely drained him, the prison guards wouldn’t have been able to restrain him so easily!
“Lu Ming! You lied to me! You ingrate! Have you forgotten how well I treated you in the past?! I’ll give you anything you want! Why aren’t you satisfied?! Can’t you give me a clean death?! I’ll kill you! I won’t let you off! I’ll haunt you even as a ghost! I want you to die! Ahhh!”
Lu Ming pretended not to hear him and said with a smile, “Are you in pain and despair? Even now, you’re still lying to yourself. You’ll give me whatever I want. Those days are only a few days, right? It’s like treating a pet. Then, there’s disgust and hatred. Every time you attack, you can’t wait for me to die. If it weren’t for my toughness, I wouldn’t have lived until now.”
He paused for a moment and continued, “If this is what you mean by treating me well, then I’m doing this for your own good. That’s why I’m letting you continue living! Alright, I still have other things to do. I’ll have to trouble Little Zhou next. Bye~ Lu Yaohua, I wish you a nightmarish rest of your life.”
With a beep, the other end of the line turned completely black. Zhou Feng took out his camera and took a photo of the panicking Lu Yaohua. He nodded in satisfaction and said, “Not bad, not bad. That’s the expression. In that case, when Boss burns this for his mother, he will definitely feel relieved.
“Take him back. Don’t let him die.”
…
The Tang family!
More than half of the servants who were originally everywhere left instantly. The courtyard seemed too quiet, like the calm before a storm. As direct descendants, they were all sitting upright in the hall. They all knew that Lu Ming was serious this time. He was going to kill them!
The old master looked straight ahead without moving, as if he was deep in thought.
Tang Rongrong, the fourth sister who couldn’t stand this atmosphere, was the first to speak up. “This time, we can only blame Third Sister for being too arrogant. She clearly hid outside for a while, but she still had to start a live broadcast to show off her academic qualifications! Is she afraid that we won’t be dragged down by her?”
Although they were not as arrogant as Tang Wenyi, their academic qualifications were a little exaggerated. Only the eldest and No. 5 really got their credentials themselves. At that time, they were secretly mocking the two of them for being stubborn. After all, they would never have thought that the Tang family would plummet in the future. Now, everyone was digging up their information online.
As a result, they did not dare to play mahjong with their friends anymore. Who knew how those people would mock them in private!
Tang Wenyi had embarrassed them! There was no one else as stupid as her!
If they could transmigrate back to the past, the first thing they would do was to strangle this fellow who had schemed against her teammates! Did she know that because of her, the Tang family’s shares had plummeted recently? Their hundred-year foundation was almost destroyed!
The second sister, Tang Wanxi, also thought of the same thing and said angrily, “Why should we clean up after Tang Wenyi’s mistake? Do you really think we’re babysitters? Old Master, no matter how much you like her, you can’t do this, right? If you had given us some of that favoritism, the Tang family wouldn’t have ended up like this!”
“Old Master, the conflict between Uncle and the branch family is getting worse.”
As the eldest sister, Tang Nishang said indifferently. Although she didn’t show much emotion on the surface, her hands that were bloodied from digging into her flesh showed that she wasn’t that calm. She didn’t have any great ambitions and only wanted to assist the Tang family well. But now, Tang Wenyi had dragged the Tang family into a quagmire for her own pleasure. How could she be happy?
She was beginning to feel lost. What else could she do?
A few days ago, she took a look at the account book and immediately did not have the courage to finish flipping through it. There was a deficit along the way! The Tang family had suffered such a huge loss, so how could she save them? Even if she lost all her assets, it would probably be a drop in the bucket.
“Huh. Them?”
The old master sneered and said, “The moment something happens to the family, they want to escape separately. They’re all useless fellows! In the end, they just want to get the last bit of benefits from the Tang family! If they really have the guts, they can come and ask for it personally! Why didn’t they mention these things when they were earning money in the past?!”
Seeing this, Tang Yajing knew that things were about to go in an unknown direction again! She sighed in her heart. It seemed that the other party would not give up on Third Sister. Perhaps in the old master’s opinion, Tang Wenyi was probably special? However, she was not sure where the special place was.
Is she particularly stupid?
She thought that this was quite likely. A normal person wouldn’t be able to do such a thing! It was fine if she sneaked away, but she even started a live broadcast! Now, she was sent to prison. However… Lu Ming’s methods were indeed impressive! He actually bought Justice Island without their knowledge.
Not a single media outlet had publicized such a big matter. Did they not know or had they been informed in advance? Perhaps it was both. At this moment, she only knew that the current Lu Ming was not someone the Tang family could touch! He had gone from having nothing back then to a behemoth now. Even she could not help but sigh. He was a genius!
“What do you think, Old Master?”
The old master moved his walking stick and said, “Of course it’s to get No. 3 out! How can the dignified Third Miss of the Tang family be caught and sent to prison! Isn’t this just a joke to those people outside? When she comes out, I’ll send her to the temple to spend the rest of her life.”
When Tang Wanxi and Tang Rongrong heard this, they couldn’t help but purse their lips. Wasn’t this bias too obvious? If it were any other sisters, the old man definitely wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble! The latter said helplessly, “Even if we wanted to get Third Sister out, we couldn’t do anything. Lu Ming isn’t someone easy to talk to. Otherwise, why would he remember the past?”
Tang Yajing rolled her eyes. That was the revenge for killing his mother! How could a normal person forget?
Just as she was about to say something, Tang Wanxi beat her to it and said, “Why don’t we play the emotional card? Lu Yaohua is Lu Ming’s last blood relative. No matter what, he has to let Third Sister off on his account, right? No matter what, he can do this for his mother. Perhaps we can try this method?”
