Chapter 112 - Please Save the Lu Corporation, Old Master!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Because Lu Yaohua had a cerebral hemorrhage, he was sent to the emergency room.

Lu Ze could not have imagined that his casual words would almost destroy his family.

He sat on the chair with mixed feelings. Even though his father had said many unpleasant things to him, his previous doting was not fake.

He tugged at his mother’s sleeve and said, “Could it really be that… I was wrong?”

“It’s alright, don’t blame yourself too much. It’s a fact that your dad is not well.”

Tang Wenyi looked at the doctor who walked out and asked, “How’s my husband? You must save him!”

“His condition is already stabilized. The medical fees are 50 thousand yuan. In addition, there are some miscellaneous medicines which amount to 100 thousand yuan. You can settle the payment with the nurse. She’ll give you the medicine. Oh right, for the next few days, the patient needs to eat light food, and he can’t be agitated anymore.”

100 thousand yuan?

How would I have so much money? she thought.

But if we don’t pay, Yaohua won’t have any medicine.

I’m the third daughter of the Tang family. When have I fallen to such a sorry state?

She seemed to have thought of something and said to Lu Ze, “I have to go back to Beijing. Can you take care of your dad here? If not, I’ll hire a nurse.”

She paused for a moment before continuing, “Forget it, let’s hire a nurse. When your dad wakes up, we can chat with him and tell him not to worry about the company. I’ll think of a way to resolve this.”

Lu Yaohua was right. She doted on her child so much that even getting him to take care of someone now was asking too much of him.

“But Mom, we have no money left.”

Lu Ze was puzzled.

“There should be some left in the company. I will get help to save the Lu Corporation as soon as possible.”

She knew that things would not end well this time.

…

The Tang family held an influential position in Beijing. They were so rich that even the tiles in the courtyard were carved out of jade. If a thief came in, a few pieces of those would be enough to last him for the rest of his life.

However, the question was whether he could come in.

After all, this place was guarded by professional bodyguards. Any stranger who appeared would be given special attention.

Apart from the sprawling area that was almost 10,000 square meters, the entire courtyard-style house was built according to the standards of the homes of ancient officials. The treasures were housed in the deeper recesses of the house where enhanced security was in place.

From afar, this place looked like a palace.

Those who did not know better would think that it was some famous historical site.

It was obvious how rich the Tang family was.

The moment Tang Wenyi returned, she knelt on the ground respectfully. “Butler He, please let me meet Old Master.”

“Third Miss, why bother? We didn’t approve of your marriage back then because we expected this day to come. Do you regret it?”

Butler He said helplessly.

It would be a lie to say that she did not regret it, but there was no other way now.

She pursed her lips tightly. “No matter what, we have to save the Lu Corporation.”

“Hey! Look who’s here? It’s No. 3!”

Tang Wanxi walked in cynically. As soon as she heard that her third sister was back, she couldn’t wait to drop whatever she was doing to ‘welcome’ her. “The Lu Corporation is just a shell in our eyes now, right?”

Tang Nishang followed her through the door and said sarcastically, “Weren’t you bragging about how capable your son was a while ago? He must have earned a lot of money, right? Why do you have to beg Old Master? If it weren’t for the fact that No. 4 and No. 5 are busy, I would have liked them to see your pathetic state.

The Lu Corporation is useless now. Old Master will never do anything. I advise you to give up. You might as well get a divorce quickly! This way, you won’t have to endure these torments. We also have one less competitor. What do you think? No. 3? Hahahaha!”

Tang Wenyi stood rooted to the ground with a pale face. If I had not chosen Lu Yaohua back then and married an elite from Beijing, would everything have been different?

At least I won’t have to beg Old Master every time.

She begged, “Butler He, please let me see Old Master!”

Butler He sighed softly and looked up at the second floor. “Old Master.”

In reality, they had also seen the news this morning. Initially, they guessed that the land price would go up to a few billion yuan. They did not expect the increase to be so much. Lu Yaohua had miscalculated.

It was precisely because of this that No. 3’s family was valued even less by the old master.

But…

As long as Tang Wenyi was still a member of the Tang family, Old Master Tang would not sit back and do nothing.

“Do you know what the consequences will be if you beg me? No. 3, I, Tang Boyan, have never made losses in business. The Lu Corporation is like a plate of loose sand now. It’s gone with the wind. It doesn’t even have the right to be there.”

Old Master Tang walked down the stairs slowly with his walking stick and stood in front of her. He said condescendingly, “No. 3, do you understand what I mean? Save, sure, but the company won’t be yours from now on.”

If not for the fact that he really did not want outsiders to laugh at him, he would not have picked up an empty shell.

“If the Lu Corporation wants to come back from the dead, I have to invest 2 billion yuan in it. No matter what, the Tang family can afford 2 billion yuan. Just take it that we’re doing charity. But let me tell you! There’s no free lunch in this world. You’ve begged me time and time again on behalf of that stupid company. I can understand it as…

Lu Yaohua is just useless! Useless! He only knows how to sweet-talk! Although I didn’t expect you guys to do well, you guys can’t even maintain the status quo of your company! You’re really disappointing! No. 3, I’ll give you the right to choose. If you leave now, I’ll pretend that I don’t have a daughter like you!”

Either leave and become an ordinary person.

Or accept help and the company will no longer be yours.”

Tang Wanxi muttered, “It’s embarrassing to have such a sister.”

“If not for the fact that we’re both from the Tang family, I would have distanced myself from her as far as I could. I don’t know what she has been doing these years. Even my husband heard about the low price of the land that Third Sister sold. Those who don’t know might think that our Tang family is stupid!”

Tang Nishang said harshly.

When Tang Wenyi heard these words, she quietly clenched her fists and kowtowed to the old master immediately. She said in a low voice, “… I know Old Master’s way of doing things. You have never embarked on a losing venture, so I’ve decided to voluntarily give up all our rights to the Lu Corporation. I hope to preserve the Lu Corporation.”

This was Lu Yaohua’s hard work, so she made her choice.

It was the only way out.

“Old Master, please save the Lu Corporation!”
