She was stunned for a few seconds before she impatiently took the fan from the servant. Neither of them spoke first. As time passed, the cold sweat on her forehead increased. She knew that if this continued, it would only become worse for her! So what if Old Master rejected her? In any case, she still had many chances!
At the thought of this, before she could move her lips and make a sound, she was met with a puzzled gaze from Butler He. She swallowed her words. What does he mean? Is he reminding me to tell him my purpose quickly, or is Old Master in a bad mood and heâs asking me to leave quickly?
She pursed her pale lips nervously, and her expression became uglier. She was in a difficult position now. She was fine with leaving, and she was fine with being honest too, but⦠who should start the conversation? She did not know what Old Master was thinking. If she was not careful and angered him, wouldnât her plan to save Lu Ze be ruined?
âLook at you, holding back your words. Those who donât know might even think that our Tang family has mistreated you! Isnât it just a few words? Iâm afraid even if I donât let you say it today, youâll force me to listen to you, right? No. 3, donât say that I didnât give you a chance. Letâs talk. Why are you looking for
me?â
At some point in time, the old master, who was taking a nap, opened his turbid eyes. From beginning to end, he did not look at Tang Wenyi at all. He just looked leisurely at the hundred-year-old tree and the mayfly climbing on it. He suddenly thought of Lu Ming, who was far away in Shanghai, and their conversation that day.
He would not let go of any murderer who killed Zhang Wenfang.
Ha! What an arrogant kid! A mere mayfly whoâs delusional enough to want to shake a big tree. People will laugh their heads off if word gets out! he thought. The reason why the Tang family could reign supreme in Beijing was not because of their overnight wealth, but because of the reputation and status that they had built up over the years. The hurt Lu Ming can inflict is similar to that of scraping the skin!
Although Lu Ming Corporationâs momentum was very strong now, no matter what, it was a sudden rise without any foundation! The old master felt that Lu Ming was dreaming to challenge him under such circumstances. Not to mention whether he could win, he could not even get an admission ticket! He had recently heard that this person wanted to develop in Beijing. This was his territory!
Since Lu Ming dared to come to Beijing, he had to be prepared to stay here forever!
At the thought of this, the corners of his lips curled into a smile. He could not be blamed for being too hard-hearted. If Lu Ming had to blame someone, he could only blame himself for being too arrogant. He wanted to ride on his head and lord over him with just a little bit of ability. How could there be such a thing in this world?! If Lu Ming did not take revenge on the Tang family or throw Lu Ze into prison, he might have acknowledged him as his grandson!
Unfortunately, Lu Ming did not appreciate his kindness at all.
Tang Mingkun was indeed powerful, but he was nothing compared to him in Beijing. He wanted to see how that old man could protect Lu Ming!
âOld Master, I, I want to visit Ah Ze in prison.â
Tang Wenyiâs words pulled the old master back to reality. She continued, âFifth Sister messed around with the prison. My son will definitely not be able to hold on for long. I hope you can help out on account of our past ties. At least let me give him something to protect himself!â
His eyes narrowed and the air in the lounge froze.
Butler He held his forehead helplessly. Hadnât he given Third Miss a look to stop talking about Young Master Lu? She was asking for trouble! Previously, Old Master had gone around establishing connections for Lu Ze. In the end, he even lost face and did not manage to bail him out. How could Old Master, who had always had a smooth sailing life, take this blow?
It had not been easy for him to get out of this predicament, but Third Missâs words had pulled him back to those days! Where was the intelligence she had before she got married? She could not have let these few years whittle it away completely, right?
As expected, the old master said with a cold face, âFrom now on, just pretend that my Tang family doesnât have this grandson! Stop meddling in his affairs! If youâre really bored, I can find something for you to do! If thereâs nothing else, go back to your room and calm down.â
âOld Master, how could you say such a thing?! Ah Ze is your biological grandson! I canât live without him. Heâs my only son! I can give up everything, but Ah Ze canât die! I carried the child for 9 months. You canât be so heartless!â
Tang Wenyi looked at him in disbelief.
Why did everything change? The old master clearly likes Ah Ze too, right? Heâs just in prison. Does he have to get rid of his blood ties so quickly? She looked blankly at Butler He, who immediately looked away. This indirectly proved that there was a problem.
Could it be that⦠Iâm the only one who still wants to save Ah Ze?
âLu Ze is useless. No matter what we do, itâs futile. The higher-ups are watching him closely because they donât believe that Lu Ze can come up with so many evil ideas, so theyâre trying to catch the person behind him. Weâre the focus. If the Tang family dares to act rashly, do you thinkâ¦
Can we continue to enjoy these riches?â
