Chapter 76 - 76 Daydream

76 Daydream

When Luo Tianming heard Luo Chen’s straightforward rejection, the muscles on his face twitched uncontrollably.

The phone in his pocket was still vibrating crazily.

If not for the fact that he was at Luo Chen’s company, he would be chased around by debt collectors now!

Previously, because of the competition with Luo Chen, Luo Tianming had desperately wanted to seize the initiative.

However, such a huge construction site required a huge amount of liquid funds to support it.

At that time, he thought that his prospects would definitely be better than Luo Chen’s, so he borrowed a lot of money.

This was the only way to ensure that he was stronger than Luo Chen from the very beginning.

But now, everything had been for naught. The debt collectors had left him with no way out.

He had no choice but to look for Luo Chen.

However, he really couldn’t say the reason.

“If there’s nothing else, please leave. Theoretically speaking, the two of us are still competitors. There’s no need for me to interact much with you. Who knows if you’re trying to get trade secrets from me to work with Su Han?”

Luo Chen did not have much patience to begin with. Looking at Luo Tianming’s hesitant appearance, he became even more frustrated.

If not for the fact that he and Luo Tianming belonged to the Luo family, he would definitely have instructed security not to let him in.

“I only want 50 million. That’s less than what you paid for the stocks, right?”

Luo Tianming took a deep breath.

In the past, if Luo Chen dared to speak to him so rudely, he would have turned around and left.

However, his predicament was more important than his dignity now .

If he left, who knew where he could get this 50 million yuan!

Based on Luo Tianming’s understanding of Luo Chen, he would definitely be able to fork out 50 million.

However, he was just unwilling to give it to him!

“Second Uncle, don’t you know how much money I can earn from the stocks I buy? What good will the money I lend you be to me? You can’t even say it yourself, right?”

Luo Chen tapped the table lightly with two fingers. His intention to chase his guest away was obvious.

Logically speaking, Luo Tianming was not such an insensible person, but today, he felt like he was pestering him.

Could it be that he had encountered some difficulties? Or was there something that Luo Chen did not understand?

After a careful observation, Luo Chen gave up on his conjecture.

In any case, it had nothing to do with him. When Luo Tianming came to ask for money, he should have been prepared to be rejected.

Previously, their relationship had been so strained that it had even caused Luo Chen a lot of trouble.

If not for the fact that the two of them were more or less related by blood, Luo Chen would not have just defended himself. He would have counterattacked long ago!

With Luo Tianming’s current state, as long as Luo Chen hit him when he was down, he would never be able to make a comeback.

“I… As long as you’re willing to lend it to me, I’ll give you 20% interest after a year. Is that okay?”

Luo Tianming hesitated for a long time before saying with gritted teeth.

In fact, this interest was already very high. Moreover, because of the capital of 50 million, Luo Chen could earn a lot.

“But how can you guarantee that you can pay it back? Or are you already prepared to go back on your word when you can’t pay it back?”

Luo Chen crossed his arms before his chest and said expressionlessly.

Based on Luo Tianming’s desperate state and the fact that he was working with Su Han…

It’d be merciful of Su Han if he did not con him of all his money one year later.

Furthermore, Luo Chen suspected that even now, Luo Tianming still hadn’t figured out that it was Su Han who had set him up.

This brain was really not suitable for business. It was better to hurry up and return home to retire.

No matter what, the Luo family could afford to raise such an idle person.

“I… I can write an agreement with you.”

“Second Uncle, don’t you understand? Even if you sign an IOU for me, if you don’t have the ability to fulfill it within a year, no matter how high the profit you promise me, it’s just a piece of white paper.”

Luo Chen really did not want to waste his breath on him. After saying this, he continued to work on his documents.

In any case, it was impossible to lend him the money, and it was impossible to forgive him.

Luo Investment Corporation’s reputation was ruined every time they caused such a huge commotion. Luo Chen was not such a saint. If he did not want to forgive them, he would not forgive them.

“You!”

A trace of viciousness flashed across Luo Tianming’s eyes. He looked at Luo Chen as if he was looking at an enemy.

“Let me give you a piece of advice. Think carefully about who caused you to be in this state. Since you’ve already come to me to borrow money, it means that I’m not the one who caused you to be in such a sorry state. There’s always a cause for injustice. Don’t be unreasonable here.”

Luo Chen noticed Luo Tianming’s indignant expression from the corner of his eye and could only add helplessly.

Although Luo Chen did not care about Luo Tianming’s life, judging from his second uncle’s reaction, it was very likely that he would bear a grudge against him because of this.

Then there would probably be a lot of trouble in the future.

“Alright, alright. Don’t worry about it. Just stay out of it!”

Luo Tianming’s temper flared up. After saying that, he left without looking back.

Seeing this, Luo Chen knew that Luo Tianming had not understood anything.

But it wasn’t too important. In any case, it didn’t have much to do with him.

...

As for what would happen to Luo Tianming in the end, it would depend on his own luck.

“If I tell you the truth that I owe a lot of external debt and if I don’t pay it back soon, I’ll be beaten to death, will you lend me money?”

Just as he was about to walk out of the door, the phone in his pocket vibrated, allowing Luo Tianming to regain his rationality. Holding onto his last hope, he turned around and asked Luo Chen.

“All the more reason not to. Maybe you can ask Grandpa for help. If he’s in a good mood, he might be able to plug this hole for you.”

“But from now on, you won’t have any chance to enter the company’s management. It’ll be a major mistake in your decision-making. I think Second Uncle knows better than me, right?”

Luo Chen sneered and said casually. He did not take Luo Tianming’s increasingly ugly expression seriously at all.

This was how things were supposed to be. To be able to break the company’s capital chain because of borrowing meant that Luo Tianming was no longer suitable for his position.

If he could not do it, there were naturally many others who could.

He did not have to place all his hopes on him alone.

Perhaps if it were someone else, they could do better.
