Chapter 31 - Competition of Misery? (2/2)
Then he looked at the old butler, who immediately handed him a pen he had prepared. “Please.”
Under Tang Wenyi’s murderous gaze, Lu Ming signed his name.
He shook hands with Ryan and Rick. “Happy to be working together.”
Both sides revealed satisfied smiles.
After all, they felt that they had profited from the partnership!
Lu Yaohua turned paler!
It took him so much effort to try to get a pen but Lu Ming got it with just one look!
Lu Yaohua looked at the contract regretfully!
He almost succeeded!
It was obviously his contract, but now, it was all to Lu Ming’s benefit!
When he thought about how he had been running around and expending money and energy for this matter, his eyes turned dark!
He suspected that Lu Ming was messing with him on purpose.
Lu Ming seemed to know what he was thinking. He smiled and said, “You found out?”
His every move was within Lu Ming’s line of sight.
Lu Yaohua felt a chill down his spine. “Why?” he asked himself.
He wondered why Lu Ming was able to see through his activities.
It struck him that perhaps his coming here to discuss the business deal was devised by Lu Ming.
Perhaps everything that happened now was all part of Lu Ming’s planned course of action.
It was to take revenge on him and steal his business!
However, he wondered if Lu Ming really had such means and brains.
If it was as he thought…
He was covered in goosebumps!
To him, Lu Ming was too scary!
He looked at Lu Ming like he had never seen this person before.
“How is this possible?” he wondered.
He did not believe that his elder son would become so successful!
Lu Ming knew what his father was thinking. “Yes.”
Lu Yaohua was stunned for a few seconds. “Wh-what do you mean?”
“It means you’re right. Don’t forget, I’m the boss here.”
Lu Ming said nonchalantly.
Lu Yaohua’s eyes were filled with fear!
He had forgotten that!
If Lu Ming was the boss, he would have known that he was coming here tonight just by looking at the customer list.
He knew that Lu Ming had done this on purpose!
He suddenly said with an ugly expression, “Do you know how much I forked out for this business deal? I kept bowing my head to those people, giving them things and money. I was just short of kneeling down and begging them!
My dignity is gone. These past few months have been so hectic that I’ve been eating one meal a day instead of three. Sometimes, I only have time to gulp down a few mouthfuls of food. Because of this, my stomach has problems.
The doctor also said that if this goes on, my stomach will suffer. I was even admitted to the hospital because of my unbalanced lifestyle. Every day, from the moment I wake up, I’d go around begging for help.
Little Ming, give this business to dad!”
[Host, please make one of the following choices:
Option 1: Remain unmoved. Reward: Media giant, Great Metropolis Daily News. (Top five in the nation, top ranking newspaper in Shanghai, hailed as the last hope of the paper media.)
Option 2: Feel sorry. Reward: Title ‘Indecisive’.
Option 3: Offer help. Reward: A halo for being blindsided.]
Lu Ming chose option one without hesitation.
“Why should I let you have it? Isn’t it normal to lose a deal in business? Compared to mom, your suffering is nothing! Mom was vomiting blood and doing cheap handiwork. And you? You’re living in a luxurious house and driving a luxurious car. You have a wife and a son. Aren’t you satisfied?
You’re just exhausted and you can’t take it?”
