Chapter 42: Confrontation
Lu Ze panted heavily and pointed at the television with trembling fingers.
Tang Wenyi looked over at the television and saw the news anchor saying, “Because Starsource management company is suspected of evading taxes, the police are now on the case. To avoid slandering anyone, they are investigating everyone in the company.
They are suspecting that celebrities, including a certain Li Xqing, are involved. The police have already arrested Li and will be pressing charges. From now on, Li Xqing will be permanently banned…”
Even if the middle name had been changed to X, Lu Ze could still tell from the back view in the photo that it was Li Mengqing!
Especially the watch on her wrist, which he had spent a lot of money to buy!
An entire 3 million yuan!
It was all the money that he had put together!
It had gone down the drain just like that!
He had wanted to use it to have some fun for a while.
“She looks so beautiful and gentle on the surface, but she’s actually involved in such a thing?!” he thought in disgust
“Mom! This b*tch! Do you think I can get my watch back now?”
Tang Wenyi felt the pinch too. When she heard his question, she said, “It’s probably going to be seized by the authorities. Mom will find you a prettier girl next time. She’s not worth being so sad about.”
“Sad?”
Lu Ze said with a painful expression, “I’m f*cking feeling sorry for my money! Why didn’t Dad check her background when he was choosing a wife for me?”
Lu Yaohua was maligned now. At that time, Lu Ze was clamoring for a wife, and Lu Yaohua could only find time to choose one with good looks. He did not even have time to deal with business matters, let alone investigate her background.
Tang Wenyi glanced at the time and consoled Lu Ze before leaving in a hurry.
Before she could get far, she heard hysterical screams coming from the ward!
She clenched her fists. When she was back, she would definitely make the culprit, Lu Ming, pay the price!
She did not tell Lu Ze about this because she was afraid that he would be so angry that he would collapse again.
What she did not know was that not long after she left, Lu Yaohua accidentally spilled the beans and Lu Ming fainted.
These days, the servants of the Tang household were afraid that they would be implicated because of the Lu Corporation matters. Therefore, no matter how much money the Lu family offered, most of them resigned.
This included the driver.
As a result, Tang Wenyi had no choice but to call for a cab.
As soon as she sat in the cab, she wiped her surroundings with a wet towel in disdain. And with the strange smell that kept rushing into her nose, she did not want to stay a moment longer in the cab.
The chauffeur thought that she was a clean freak and said nothing.
He tuned in to the music station on the radio and hummed a tune as he drove.
Tang Wenyi frowned in disgust. If she had been in her car, she would have told the driver to shut up and put on the light music she liked.
As she listened to these rustic love songs, she thought to herself, “He’s indeed a low-class person! The songs he listens to are all so low-class.”
The chauffeur did not notice her antipathy at all and said, “Did you know about the Lu Corporation? Both the television and the newspapers reported the matter this morning.”
He smiled and said, “Previously, the Lu Corporation relied on the power of their own lawyers and even let those buyers sue them. Now I heard that the Lu Corporation has compensated them a lot of money. They deserve it!”
As he came to the climax of his story, he even lit a cigarette and continued, “It’s really karma. I’ve long disliked the Lu Corporation’s tactics. The Themis Law Firm is really the people’s savior!
If not for them, I’m afraid the end result would be those buyers having no choice but to move out because their apartments may collapse. The money they put in would have gone down the drain.”
Tang Wenyi smelled the cigarette smoke and frowned.
The driver glanced in the rearview mirror and asked, “You seem to be quite rich, right? Do you know the Lu Corporation?”
“I’m Lu Yaohua’s wife!”
Tang Wenyi said unhappily, “What do you mean by karma?”
“It makes us look like evil people!” she thought.
“We just want to climb higher. What’s wrong with that?”
The chauffeur’s expression changed. “So you’re Lu Yaohua’s wife!”
He felt that since she could live with Lu Yaohua, she must not be a good person.
“I don’t know if my luck is good or bad. I was reading the newspaper about you this morning, and I ended up giving you a ride. If it weren’t for the fact that business is slow and I lack money recently, I would have returned your money and booted you out of my cab.”
Tang Wenyi gritted her teeth and said, “This is only temporary for the Lu Corporation. You were all deceived by those lawyers! This is all slander!”
“Slander?”
The chauffeur looked at her in surprise, with the cigarette in his mouth. Tang Wenyi was as bad as he had expected.
“Not a normal person,” he concluded.
“I think you deceived many people who bought apartments, right? How dare you build such shoddy construction projects to sell? If there’s an earthquake, many people will die, don’t you know? Has your conscience been eaten by dogs?”
Tang Wenyi said self-righteously, “There are rarely earthquakes in Shanghai. Besides, aren’t they still alive?”
“I’m curious. What are you thinking? Do you think we can predict whether there will be earthquakes? Do lives have to be lost before you think the matter is serious?”
The chauffeur continued, “In your eyes, the lives of ordinary people like us are worthless, right? In that case, there’s a reason why the Lu Corporation is out of luck. The Lu Corporation is trash, Lu Yaohua is trash, and you are also trash!”
He retorted unreservedly.
Tang Wenyi pulled her hair angrily. No matter what she said, the other party would retort. What could she say?!
It was just a crappy taxi, and he dared to provoke her!
Before getting out of the car, she said, “I won’t let you off!”
The driver chuckled disdainfully. “What? Are you going to get someone to kill me? Sister, can you be more realistic? This is a lawful society. Besides, you don’t even know my name and you want to take revenge on me?
Such a petty personality is indeed worthy of someone from the Lu family! After you leave, I’ll have to get someone to wash my car. After all, I have a principle—I don’t take beasts!”
With that, he started the car and left.
Tang Wenyi was left stomping her feet and cursing!
“After I’ve borrowed money, I will go after these people who look down on me!
Who said that I can’t track someone down just because I don’t know the name?” she thought.
She had already memorized the driver’s face. When the time came, she would casually greet him and see who dared to use his services!
A mere lowly person dared to call her a beast!
She kicked the stone pillar and gasped!
She felt that her foot must be swollen!
She looked at the stone pillar indignantly. “My day is going badly wherever I go!” she thought.
“When I return to Shanghai, I will definitely get someone to tear this place down!”
She finally boarded the plane with deep resentment..
