What a joke!
He would be dragged down by these two pricks sooner or later!
Although the company could not have become so successful without Tang Wenyi’s support, he was willing to have a smaller company now rather than face the situation of the company being cheated out of money!
“Damn it!” he shouted.
He took a few deep breaths and calmed himself down before opening his phone.
Maybe it’s not as serious as the news reported? Maybe we can get some money? Maybe things will change for the better?
There was always a ‘what if’ scenario.
With trembling hands, he opened the interface. He subconsciously closed his eyes and began to beg his grandfather and grandmother in his heart. No matter which immortal it was, it had to help him. He was willing to consecrate the immortal every day at home as long as the price did not drop!
He slowly opened his eyes. When he saw those red lines plunging like a valley, he almost could not breathe!
Not even a right-angled triangle could be this straight!
He panted heavily. There was only one thought in his mind. It’s over! Everything is over! The money that he had worked so hard to save was gone!
When Dogecoin became popular, he took a look at it and knew the price.
From the initial value of about 10 USD to only a single digit, and finally to 0.03 USD?!
This was too much of a leap!
He was so angry that his teeth chattered. He wished he could fly over immediately and beat his wife and son up!
500 million yuan!
There was really nothing left!
It would be fine if the Tang family was willing to help, but the point was that they could not wait to cut ties with them!
Moreover, no matter what Tang Wenyi and Lu Ze did, even if they squandered all their assets, they could leave and return to Beijing to enjoy a better life!
Why doesn’t she think about me?! he thought.
At that time, he could only stay in Shanghai to deal with the mess. He would live a life worse than a few years ago!
Are we still family? he thought.
If Wenfang were still around, she would definitely have been raising money everywhere. She would never have squandered 500 million yuan of his company funds. That was simply impossible!
If he had not chosen to divorce back then, not only would he have a virtuous wife, he would also have a smart and capable son! What was the Lu Corporation to him? With so many famous companies under his elder son, he did not have to do anything. All he had to do was accept the praises from others every day!
Now, it was the opposite. He could have enjoyed a better life, but he had no choice but to become enemies with his elder son for the sake of the benefits before his eyes. And the rich missy he married was one of the culprits who got him into such a situation.
His eyes were bloodshot!
He had toiled so hard, putting in long hours at work. Not only did his wife and son not understand, but they even used up the company’s lifesaving money behind his back!
What do I do now!
The fame and fortune that he had pursued his entire life had all turned into bubbles at this moment!
If I’m going to be lonely, I might as well have a stable life from the beginning! he thought.
At the hospital.
Lu Ze looked at his phone in despair. “Mom, what should we do? If Dad finds out about this, he’ll kill me!”
He knew what 500 million yuan meant to Lu Yaohua, so he was instantly anxious.
“It’s alright, it’s alright. With me around, Yaohua wouldn’t dare to do anything to you. Besides, I’ve talked to him about this matter in advance. I’ll call Shi Tian now and ask him to stall for time. I’ll borrow money from Old Master immediately!”
Tang Wenyi couldn’t care less that Lu Ming was still around. She dialed a number. “Shi Tian, don’t tell anyone about the money…”
“Madam, it’s not that I’m not tight-lipped, but I really can’t do anything about it. When the Vice CEO was investigating the accounts, he found out that there was a problem and told the CEO directly.”
Shi Tian did not mention that he had betrayed Tang Wenyi. Instead, he indirectly pushed the blame onto Du Tianyu.
“What do you mean?!”
Tang Wenyi could not react in time. It had not been half a month, had it? How did they find out so quickly?
A helpless voice came from the other end of the phone. “The CEO already knows. He flew into a rage in the conference room and said that he would never let anyone off. Now he…”
“He must have run to find you.”
Before she could finish, Tang Wenyi hung up the phone and looked at her husband, who was panting. Lu Yaohua usually cared about how he looked to others. How could he allow himself to look so pathetic?
She forced a smile and said, “Yao, Yaohua, you’re here…”
Lu Yaohua walked forward and slapped her!
The sound was crisp!
Even the people in the hallway could hear him.
“Pig brain!”
“You’re a f*cking pig brain! Can you have some self-awareness?! Neither of you had learned anything about business, so how dared you invest using the company’s money?! Don’t you know that I have to rely on that money for many of my collaborations?!”
Tang Wenyi was stunned by the sudden slap. She said blankly, “I, I thought my son is a genius…”
“Genius my ass! If he was a genius, he would have shown it long ago. Why would he have achieved nothing until now?! If he’s a genius, then there’s no fool in the world!”
Lu Yaohua slapped her again in anger. “I treat you as my family. What do you take me for?! An ATM?! I’ve treated you well, right? Why did you do this!? Missy! You should have woken up, right? What are we going to use to compete with others now!”
Tang Wenyi covered her face. No matter how angry Old Master was, he had never slapped me. What right did Lu Yaohua have to do this?
She said unhappily, “Isn’t it just a lousy company?! Is there a need to be so angry? Those who don’t know might even think that your company is big! Also! That company has my money in it. What’s wrong with using some of it?!”
“A small company? That was my hard work! So that’s how you’ve always looked at me! I’ve given you whatever you wanted these past few years. Have I ever treated you badly?!”
Lu Yaohua raised his voice and roared,
“Alright! You’re the high and mighty third daughter of the Tang family, but you’re not f*cking in Beijing now! That’s your Tang family’s territory. You can do whatever you want there! But this is Shanghai! Everything you have now is obtained by the Lu Corporation!
Why do you think those people supported you? No matter how powerful your Tang family is, their influence would not have reached Shanghai! The family that you are proud of has turned a blind eye to your demise! I was the one who solved all those problems one by one!
Tang Wenyi, what do you take me for?
It’s fine if our son is insensible because he has been spoiled by you, but how can you be insensible as well?!”
