Chapter 367: Consequences

What happened affirmed the opinion of the others who had always supported their boss.

Ji Yu watched as those people left just like that. She felt that Lu Ming was too easy on those guys. She could not help but ask, “CEO Lu, are we going to let them off just like that?”

Lu Ming chuckled and said, “Do I look like a good person? How can I let them off easily for selling company information? I’ve already reported them to the officials. The moment they walk out of the company, they will face more than three years of imprisonment. In addition, I’ve also told all the companies in Shanghai about their ‘great achievements’.

I don’t think any company will want to hire backstabbing employees like them. If they want to develop, they’ll have to start over in another city. However, I don’t think they’ll be able to do it in the next few years because I asked the officials to make the information available to companies in other provinces. Unless these people leave the country, they have no choice but to wait out the storm.

But in the meantime, they can only idle around without generating any income. But how long can this last?”

The reason why he wasted so much time explaining was to stabilize the turbulent hearts of the people. If this small matter caused a misunderstanding between them, it would not be worth it! As expected, after he finished speaking, those people finally relaxed.

There were even some who ran to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down curiously. Then they were surprised to see that the people fired by their boss were being taken away by the uniformed police. Just as their boss had said, he did not let the people who betrayed the company off easily! They even doubted him just now. What was wrong with their brains?

Perhaps it was because of guilt or admiration, but for a moment, their loyalty to Lu Ming increased significantly! When Lu Ming saw this scene, he nodded in his heart. This was a blessing in disguise. Not only did he get rid of those ingrates, but he also used them to win over people’s hearts!

He suddenly thought of something and took out his phone to send a message to a certain someone. Then he looked up and said, “This meeting will end here. If there are any other questions, you can wait until I’m free later. I hope everyone can have new developments in the new year! Let’s contribute to the company’s advancement to a higher position!

Well, the meeting is adjourned!”

With that order, the conference room that was originally filled with people instantly became empty!

…

Meanwhile, in Satellite City.

In a courtyard closest to the center of the city, a mature woman holding a pipe was sitting on a chair and saying something to an old man in a Tang suit. She was wearing a purple cheongsam that vividly displayed her curvaceous figure. Her slightly curly black hair was casually scattered at her waist. Her every move was charming, but not overly vulgar.

Instead, there was a sense of aloofness about her.

“Ever since you resigned from your position, you’ve been living quite leisurely here. Who in the industry doesn’t know that you’re famous for being a workaholic? Those people thought that you would at least be depressed for a period of time or you might even be involved in an internal strife or something. Why? Do you want to cultivate your character now?”

Tang Mingkun asked her as he took a sip of tea.

To be honest, ever since the air purification function was installed in the satellite city, he couldn’t wait to come here every day to take a few more breaths. It was simply a pleasure! Even his heavy body felt much more relaxed. It seemed that he had to put the matter of relocating on the agenda as soon as possible. He was afraid that he wouldn’t want to leave after staying here for a few more days!

At the thought that he still had to return to Shanghai to deal with those troublesome documents and all kinds of inconveniences of daily living, he couldn’t wait to pretend to be blind! As the saying went, out of sight, out of mind. However, fortunately, wherever he went, there would be people praising his good taste and saying how powerful his godson was. Every time this happened, he would stand up proudly. This was his godson!

The treasure he had dug up with his own hands!

Han Qianjing knew what he was thinking from his expression. She thought to herself, How old are you? Why are you still acting like a child? If others saw that Tang Mingkun had such a stubborn side, their jaws would probably drop. Thinking of this, she raised her eyebrows and said, “Since there’s a successor, why should I hold on to my authority?”

Even though she had already clarified it during the press conference, those people liked to engage in discussing conspiracy theories for a long time. They felt that she was just saying it on the surface and might have done something behind the scenes! However, she had never taken others’ words to heart and continued to stay at home to do gardening.

When she wanted to go out, she would take the bank card that her son-in-law had given her and swipe it everywhere. At first, she was a little worried, but after learning about the other party’s assets, she completely let herself go. If she didn’t spend money, she was afraid that the bank wouldn’t be able to handle so much savings! To a certain extent, it could be considered as reducing the burden on her family.

“I’m different from Tang Boyan. A greedy person like him won’t take the initiative to give up his power no matter how many years have passed. Can’t you see that he’s already half-dead and hasn’t decided on a true successor? In my opinion, the Tang family has been going downhill in recent years. Unless they produce a genius similar to my son-in-law, they’ll be finished sooner or later. It’s just a matter of time now.”

According to the current situation, when Tang Baiyan couldn’t take it anymore, the Tang family would most likely be crippled! Without her needing to do anything, the other covetous families in the capital would instantly devour the Tang family! This was considered retribution. Who asked them to bully her in the past and indirectly force her in-laws to death? They almost made it impossible for her son-in-law to live in Shanghai!

She hoped that the Tang family could survive for a little longer. She had yet to counterattack!

“Little Ming? I think there’s no hope for the Tang family.”

Tang Mingkun laughed and shook his head. This was impossible. A person like Lu Ming was rare. He was sure that there was no one else in the world who could compare to his godson! So what if there were many companies that were more powerful than Lu Ming Corporation? As long as Lu Ming was given time to grow, he would definitely surpass those people!

It was obvious how much hope he had for his godson. He thought that Han Qianjing must have the same thoughts as him.

And it was true.

Han Qianjing flicked off the cigarette ash and leaned back in her chair. She said, “The Tang family’s decline is inevitable. I didn’t expect to find a successor so quickly, nor did I expect my daughter to take a fancy to such an outstanding young man. When they first got together, I was worried that the two of them would separate.”

“Hahahaha, Little Ming values friendship and loyalty. Once he has decided on something or someone, he won’t let go easily. However, as elders, we can’t interfere in the matters of the younger generation. It’s better to let them develop naturally in case we wreck something out of good intentions.”
