He was like a useless beast. When he met Lu Ming, he could only obediently lower his head and admit his mistake. He felt that he had apologized more today than in his entire life! This was also the first time in his life that he had bowed down to someone. This was a treatment that even the family head had never enjoyed.
“What can I do for you to sell the medicine to me? Young Master Lu Ze is lying in bed now and can’t even get up. If he dies like this, I won’t be able to bear the responsibility. Please be kind and take pity on me.”
This time, he was groveling. His originally arrogant expression had long disappeared, leaving only humility.
This was much more pleasing to the eye than not long ago.
Chu Jinyu commented in her heart. As expected of her Brother Lu Ming. He really had such a mentality! Didn’t he look down on the ‘nouveau riche’ Lu Ming Corporation? Now that he had to embarrass himself in front of the nouveau riche, he probably wouldn’t dare to come here easily in the future, right?
She gave Lu Ming a questioning look. She was quite curious about what he would do!
Lu Ming said without changing his expression, “I can give you the medicine, but Tang Boyan has to come and take it personally. If Tang Wenyi takes the initiative to volunteer, I don’t mind. The premise is that you think she can safely take this No. 3 from me with her intelligence! How she chooses will depend on your Tang family’s attitude. Don’t say that I didn’t give her a chance.”
The head of the Tang family!?
This person is too bold! Isn’t he afraid of death to offend the Tang family so casually?! He suddenly remembered the rumors that were spreading outside. No, they should be… afraid, right? It was just that the two sides had already fought to the death many years ago! Furthermore, the Tang family was the murderer who indirectly killed Lu Ming’s mother!
But at the same time, he thought of something else. If it were anyone else, would they not blame him? He had already done his best. Next, it would be up to the family head! This matter was decided happily! Hence, he immediately said, “Then I’ll go and discuss with the family head. What do you think?”
Lu Ming nodded slightly.
After obtaining his permission, the man ran out of the office without looking back. This amused Chu Jinyu. She complained, “Those who don’t know better might think that there are ghosts chasing after them! However, we only have a demon king here. Hahahaha! It was too satisfying just now!”
It was also very cool to take revenge on the spot!
Lu Ming looked at his wife helplessly. When did I become a demon king? I’m not that terrifying, right? In the next second, he said teasingly, “If I’m a demon king, then you’re a female demon? In that case, doesn’t that mean there are two demons in this office?”
“Then we’re a couple of demons! Vicious people!”
Chu Jinyu had no intention of refuting. Instead, she happily accepted the title. In fact, she quite liked this title. This way, even a fool would know that she was in cahoots with Brother Lu Ming! She jumped into her husband’s arms and said, “Then we only have to wait for Tang Boyan to come over, right?”
“Right.”
Lu Ming revealed a meaningful expression. Don’t let me down! It was not easy to set up the stage. If not for Tang Boyan’s passionate performance, this scene would have lost its soul.
…
Tang Boyan, who did not know that his tragic path had been paved, shivered. Could it be that the weather has turned cold today? Otherwise, why do I have a bad feeling? Without thinking too much, he looked at the middle-aged man sitting on the sofa opposite him and said, “I didn’t expect that the next time we meet, it will be me asking you for a favor, Deputy Warden Xing.”
Xing Boke smiled and said, “Brother Tang, what are you saying? When I was young, it was all thanks to your care. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to climb to my current position in such a short period of time. There are countless people behind me who are envious of my luck! If there’s anything you need my help with, feel free to ask! I’ll definitely do my best!”
Although he already knew the true purpose of these two people coming here, he was unwilling to give up the initiative in his hands!
Tang Wenyi wanted to say something, but she was stopped by the old man’s gaze the next second. She quickly shut her mouth obediently. With the old master around, she felt that she didn’t have to worry. Who was the old master? What kind of person had he not seen? How could he not be able to deal with a mere deputy warden?
Even the warden had to lower his head when he saw him, let alone a deputy!
The old master, who did not know how arrogant his daughter was, rubbed the bead in his hand and said, “It’s good that you still remember that favor from back then. Although we have seen each other much less over the years, I don’t think our relationship has weakened because of this, right? The thing I want to ask you is very simple. My grandson is infected with an infectious disease in prison and his life might be in danger at any time.
I want you to transfer him to a special care unit outside.”
Xing Boke’s expression froze. He said awkwardly, “Brother Tang, it’s not that I’m unwilling, but I can’t do this! The higher-ups are watching me! How would I dare to do anything? Besides, the prison isn’t my place to decide. If the warden catches me, he will definitely pull me down without hesitation!”
He paused for a moment and continued, “I’ve been in this position for so many years. I can’t lose everything over such a small matter! Can you understand my difficulties? As long as you don’t ask me to do this, I can promise you everything else.”
But didn’t we come here to transfer Ah Ze?!
Tang Wenyi instinctively retorted, “How is this a small matter?! Human lives are at stake! If my son dies here, can you give me an identical son!? I think you’ll never know what pain feels like until the knife falls on you!”
“No. 3!”
The old man’s expression was also a little ugly, but it was still within his control. Therefore, after hearing his daughter’s accusation, he could react immediately. Xing Boke seemed to have noticed that his words were wrong, but the Tang family was gradually declining. In addition, he did not need the other party’s help, so he was not afraid at all.
“Third Miss, you have to understand that this is not an ordinary prison. There are only people with serious sins locked up in the felony prison. Even if someone really dies, the outside world will only clap and cheer! When the young master came in, he seemed to be carrying several lives, right?”
He said tentatively, “Why don’t you try again, Third Miss? It’ll be better if you teach me more. What do you think? Of course, if I’m nosy, please don’t take it to heart.”
