Chapter 501: You Really Can Hide!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At the same time, Lu Yaohua, who had just been sent to prison for a few days, was already haggard. His unshaven appearance reminded one of a beggar sleeping under a bridge. He sat in a damp corner with lifeless eyes. Every time he breathed, his lungs would ache.
Perhaps it was because of the curse that Lu Ming mentioned that day that his originally sound body finally began to collapse. According to the doctor, he probably did not have much life left! However, before he died, he still had to go through this torture. Because his condition was serious, there was no medicine that could make him better. He really felt like he was better off dead!
Well, he could not bring himself to take his own life.
A long sigh sounded in the air. How did he end up here from CEO Lu, who had a bright future ahead of him? Everything in the past was like a dream, disappearing without a trace! His pampered hands had also become calluses when he worked in the construction site. It was only at this moment that he subconsciously thought of Zhang Wenfang.
When she was around, Lu Yaohua never had to do these ‘rough jobs’. Wasn’t it precisely because Zhang Wenfang spared no effort to provide financial support for him? How could he have been promoted to an executive in such a short period of time? Speaking of which, he had started to despise Zhang Wenfang and her son back then.
His wife was covered in sweat every time she came back, not to mention that her hands were covered in wounds! As for his son, he was still young and did not know anything and was not considerate at all. He wished he could change planets overnight! He did not realize that his child was too young to know how to be sensible. He simply did not like Zhang Wenfang, and even looked at Lu Ming with prejudice!
However, in order to suck Zhang Wenfang’s blood, he had no choice but to hide his disdain.
As time passed, not only did he not feel any love for or guilt toward Zhang Wenfang, but he also hated her to the core! If it weren’t for this person dragging him down, would he have to be mocked by his colleagues for having bad taste? Those people were right, how could Zhang Wenfang be worthy of such an outstanding person like him!
Marrying a university student in his hometown might be something to be happy about, but from the looks of it, he had suffered! Although the two of them slept in the same bed, he wished he could kill his wife every night in exchange for a bright future! However, he knew very well that he could not do such a dirty thing!
If he was discovered later, wouldn’t he be finished? After months of consideration, he finally saw a way out in Tang Wenyi! Tang Wenyi came from a famous family and had been pampered since she was young. If he wanted to use her to do something, wouldn’t it be just a few words?
Coincidentally, his bad friends, Lei Jiacheng and Xu Xiaojing, had also thought of the same thing. He even pretended to reject them a few times before agreeing helplessly, “Since it’s Big Brother and Sister-in-law’s idea, I’ll give it a try. If Zhang Wenfang is sensible, when Wenyi and I get married, I will definitely not forget you guys!”
Now that Lu Yaohua thought about it, he regretted it! He could have led a good life by protecting Zhang Wenfang and Lu Ming. Why did he have to take a shortcut back then? He knew that if Tang Wenyi and her family made a move, they would go after these two people. It was as if he was possessed. He wanted to completely erase the stain on his past!
Thinking of this, his heart ached.
If he had been more clear-headed, there was no need for him to die with the Tang family now! He might even be a popular upstart in the business world. With the current development speed of Lu Ming Corporation, even the Tang family would be afraid of him. He could even see Tang Boyan bowing down to him! Immediately, he shed a few crocodile tears.
He had so many trump cards in his hands, but he was beaten to such a state. Where did this big idiot come from? He had just said that Lu Ming could not become a big shot! He was so angry that he immediately slapped himself a few times. If Lu Ming could not do it, then there was probably no one in this world who could! After all, this was a junior that even Musk favored!
Recalling what Lu Ming had done, he wondered how ordinary people could achieve all that.
He increasingly felt that he had poor judgment. Whatever intelligence he had left had also been worn down by Tang Wenyi. If he had realized it earlier, would everything have been different? He knew that he was wrong. He really knew that he was wrong. As long as Lu Ming gave him another chance, he would definitely worship Zhang Wenfang every day after he was released from prison and sincerely repent!
The heavens seemed to have heard his prayer. The man in the white prison uniform walked in and carefully poked his head into the room. After checking that no one was around, he took out a thick wad of banknotes. It was about half the size of a brick and there was obvious dirt and dust on it.
“You’re really good at hiding! If my brothers outside hadn’t searched carefully, I’m afraid they would have overlooked it. According to the agreement, I’ll help you bring the money in. The reward is half the amount. I’ve already taken it. Now, these are all yours. However, you have to be careful not to be caught red-handed, or we’ll all be doomed.”
A faint light instantly lit up in Lu Yaohua’s eyes. He quickly nodded and took the banknotes. This was his last trump card. Previously, he had specially hidden it after getting his share of Xingwei Preventive Medicine just in case. For example, he had to sneak into a place where no one knew him after being chased by debtors. However, at this moment, he had no choice but to use it for something else.
He tried his best to calm down and kept telling himself, I can earn more money if I lose it. If I lose my life, I’ll really lose it!
Therefore, he found a lunch break and came to the superintendent’s side. He said tentatively, “Superintendent, I want to see my eldest son. Is that okay? Just say that I have something important to tell him. Can you make an exception? Of course, I won’t treat you badly in terms of payment.”
The superintendent glanced at him and said sarcastically, “I remember that your eldest son is the boss of Lu Ming Corporation, right? Didn’t you guys sever ties a long time ago? You’ll probably return empty-handed in the end. Besides, didn’t you look for him before you came in? Even if you hid some money, there’s not much. Hurry up and get lost!”
Seeing that the other party did not believe him, Lu Yaohua quickly took out all his assets and said, “This should be enough, right? As long as you help me pass a message, regardless of whether it succeeds or not, this money will be yours! You can treat it as my respect for you. I will definitely not pursue the matter after this. How about it?”
The superintendent narrowed his eyes and accepted the money in a few breaths. Since he had already said so, how could he refuse? He would be dumb if he did not take advantage of it. With this thought in mind, he snorted.
