Chapter 286: Trash
If it was really that simple, would he have run the risk of being scolded by making a call? Boss Dong really had no choice but to do this. After all, he could only think of the big boss, the Tang family.
However, unfortunately, the old master could not empathize with this. Instead, he scolded, “You’d give the ransom just like that? Don’t tell me things come easy for his family. Even if you don’t give it to him, what can he do to you? If you can’t even do this, what else can you do? You’re actually threatened by a young kid! Is your brain for decoration?!
If you don’t handle it well, don’t come and see me again!”
When Boss Dong heard this, his heart instantly turned cold. He knew that influential families were all so superior, but if Tang Boyan had not asked him to do this, he would not have gotten into such trouble. In the end, it was all the Tang family’s fault for having to provoke others at their press conference!
Now he was being blackmailed!
Although he was furious, he did not dare to say anything out of line because he was a coward. If he suffered a double loss, wouldn’t that be a huge loss?
“Lu, Lu Ming said that he had already guessed that you were behind this and that he had evidence. If I don’t hand over 30 million yuan on time, he will spread the news. He even said… he even said that he wanted everyone to see the face of the so-called prestigious family! Master, you can’t leave us in the lurch! Otherwise, we will all be finished!”
If he did not involve the Tang family along, he would probably have to fork out the money alone. But now, perhaps the Tang family could fork out his share. Moreover, he was not lying. Lu Ming had indeed said something similar. He had just added a few words to the original words.
As expected, Tang Boyan, who was far away in the capital, panicked! If word got out, others would probably think that he was an old fart! Then where would he put his face? He did not want to be called petty wherever he went. He could not even tolerate a young man!
Damn it! This little bastard actually tricked me?!
At the thought of this, he gritted his teeth tightly and glared at the empty space in front of him. He had to fork out the money this time even if he did not want to. Otherwise the other party would have ways to make him suffer! Now the initiative was in Lu Ming’s hands, not his! The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. It was a small matter to begin with. Why did the other party have something on him?
If not for Boss Dong, that idiot, he would not have given his enemy a sum of money for no reason!
Unbeknownst to them, both parties were blaming each other.
After some time, just as Boss Dong was getting impatient, Tang Boyan said in a low voice, “I’ll transfer every cent of the money. After that, we shouldn’t contact each other anymore so that Lu Ming won’t have something on us. My Tang family is indeed rich, but we don’t waste money like this! Understand?”
“Understood, understood. Thank you, Master! Master is kind!”
As long as he did not fork out the money himself, it was fine. In fact, if the Tang family was not prepared to fork out this money, he planned to drag Tang Boyan down with him! Even if he died, he would drag him down with him! Fortunately, the other party was quite sensible. Although their partnership had broken down because of this, his company was still around, which meant that he could continue to be a superior person!
On the other end, Tang Boyan reluctantly arranged for someone to complete the transfer. He gritted his teeth and said, “Tsk, Lu Ming, good job! You’re really as greedy as your useless father! Don’t let me find an opportunity. Otherwise, I won’t let you off!”
As if this was not enough to vent his anger, he threw everything onto the ground! Instantly, the sound of glass could be heard in the hall, scaring the servants who were working seriously! They thought to themselves, Why is the master so angry recently? He throws things every other day!
Just as they were trembling and about to leave quietly, Fifth Miss, who was wearing casual clothes, strode in. When she saw the mess, she raised her eyebrows slightly and said, “Old Master, who provoked you to this extent? Didn’t the doctor say that with your current health, it’s not appropriate to get angry? I want you to live a long life.”
In just a few words, the old master, who was in a fit of anger, gradually regained his composure. For someone of his status, he could not bear to part with his life. The taste of power was really irresistible. He wanted to enjoy the feeling of having power for a few more years!
Immediately after, he sat back in his seat and took a sip of warm tea. He asked, “Why are you back? Didn’t I tell you to go there and adapt to the environment? Could it be that you don’t think it’s difficult? Or did you encounter an emergency? Didn’t Xiangwen teach you?”
He glanced at the red dot on the other party’s sleeve and curled the corners of his lips. “How do you feel?”
“I like it very much. It’s just a little troublesome cleaning up.”
The two of them seemed to be talking in riddles, and Tang Yajing’s eyes were full of satisfaction and… contentment, but the bloody aura on her was undeniable.
