Chapter 45: Breakdown
“How am I going to survive in Shanghai in the future!” Lu Yaohua thought.
Since the creditors had come to his door, he wondered what he should say.
Lu Yaohua thought of the Tang family and said, “Brother Atom, can you be tolerant for another day? My wife is the third daughter of the Tang family in Beijing. She went there to borrow money a few days ago. As soon as the money is borrowed, I’ll repay the money immediately. What do you think?”
It was just a small amount of 65 million yuan. It was nothing to the Tang family!
At this thought, he felt more confident. “Don’t worry. The Tang family is a prestigious family, after all. You won’t lose this little bit of money!”
He sounded like the head of the Tang family.
Atom had heard about the Tang family. Although they were far away in Beijing, their status and money were way out of the Lu Corporation’s league.
Lu Yaohua was the son-in-law of the Tang family. If Atom inadvertently offended him, there would be repercussions.
“Are you sure your wife can get the money in a day?”
Seeing his hesitation, Lu Yaohua said confidently, “The Tang family doesn’t lack money. Don’t worry!”
Now Lu Ze, who was lying in the hospital, still needed a large sum of medical fees. It was true that when it rained, it poured. Bad things came, one after another. Fortunately, there were solutions.
He placed all his hopes on Tang Wenyi!
“Alright, since that’s the case, I’ll wait another day for you!”
His mention of the Tang family made Atom believe him.
It was just a day. It was not like he could not wait!
Just as he was about to leave with his subordinates, a travel-worn woman walked in with a suitcase.
Atom stopped.
He guessed that this person was Tang Wenyi.
He looked at Lu Yaohua and said, “What a coincidence. Your wife happened to be back. You can repay the money now, right?”
Lu Yaohua was delighted. She had returned just in time!
“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely pay you every cent.”
He turned to Tang Wenyi and said, “Honey, give me the money you borrowed from the Tang family.”
Tang Wenyi did not sleep much throughout the trip. Her eyes were bloodshot as she said tiredly, “Grandpa didn’t lend money, so we can only settle it ourselves.”
Atom glared at Lu Yaohua as if he would hit him the next second if he could not pay up!
Lu Yaohua naturally sensed his gaze. He panicked and laughed dryly. “Are you kidding me?”
Tang Wenyi was confused. “Why would I joke with you? The Lu family is in too much trouble now. Even if Grandpa wants to help, he can’t. He will drag the Tang family down with him.”
Lu Yaohua couldn’t care less about the Tang family now. He only knew that if he did not fork out the money, he would definitely be done for!
He began to reprimand Tang Wenyi in his heart for being insensible. “Why didn’t she come home earlier or later? She just has to run into the debt collector?” he thought.
He still had a glimmer of hope that Tang Wenyi was lying to him.
So he went forward to push Tang Wenyi away and opened her suitcase in front of everyone. Other than her clothes, there was not a single bill inside!
Even after he searched everywhere!
Tang Wenyi frowned and said, “What are you doing?! Aren’t you ashamed?”
Her undergarments were thrown out and her suitcase was emptied. There was no money!
Lu Yaohua grabbed her collar and said, “Didn’t you say that you went back to Beijing to borrow money?! Where’s the money?! How could the old man watch our demise?! Did you hide the money?! Tell me! Where did you hide it?”
She had never seen her husband so fierce. For a moment, she could not react.
Atom’s gaze seemed to pierce through Lu Yaohua, which only made him lose his mind. “You must have hidden the money to surprise me, right? Tell me, where’s the money?”
Tang Wenyi looked at him as if he was crazy. “Didn’t I already tell you that Grandpa won’t lend money?”
“Then what have you been doing these past few days?! Don’t tell me you want to leave Lu Ze and me and live happily by yourself with the Tang family?!”
Lu Yaohua roared.
“Enjoyment?”
Tang Wenyi thought of how she had been whipped by Butler He. “So what I’ve suffered is a blessing in my husband’s eyes?” she fumed.
“Then what was my hard work these past days for?!”
Her emotions exploded!
She felt a sudden surge in her body and pushed Lu Yaohua away!
“If I was enjoying myself, do you think I would have come back? I was really… I was really blind to have taken a fancy to you!”
She had rejected Old Master Tang’s suggestion because she still had Lu Yaohua in her heart. She did not expect him to say such hurtful things!
Tang Wenyi’s eyes reddened as she said, “Grandpa said that as long as I divorce you, he would guarantee that my son and I won’t have to worry about food and clothing, but I didn’t agree! I was punished by being made to kneel. Look!”
She rolled up her sleeves and revealed her neck, which was covered in rattan marks.
“I was beaten up by the butler! I was even laughed at by my sisters! I don’t even understand now why I came back. I must have lost my mind! I love you so much, but you treat me like this! How can you face me?”
Her sister’s words kept swirling in her mind.
Lu Yaohua’s good looks could not hide his shortcomings. He had no money, no power, and it was his second marriage.
Back then, there were a lot of people wooing her. “Why did I have to fancy this person?” she thought.
She wondered if Old Master Tang would value her more if she had married the son of high-ranking officials or wealthy elites.
“If I had developed my business in Beijing, it would have been much better than in Shanghai!” she thought.
Atom saw that the argument between them was getting fiercer. He gave a warning look to his brothers who were having fun watching and said, “We won’t interfere with the affairs between you two. If you want to argue, can you pay the money first?”
The newspapers had reported that Lu Yaohua and Tang Wenyi were a model couple. People thought that the two of them had a good relationship, but surprise…
“It’s actually like this?” he thought.
Lu Yaohua’s mind finally cleared up a little. Seeing that Tang Wenyi was about to file for divorce, he quickly hugged her and said, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said those things.”
In any case, Tang Wenyi was a member of the Tang family. He knew that if he provoked her, the Tang family might do something to him!
He was starting to regret his decision. If Tang Wenyi was an ordinary person, she would have had no choice but to accept whatever he said, unlike now, when she had to be coaxed.
“I know you’ve suffered. My emotions were unstable just now. I’m sorry, please forgive me.”
Tang Wenyi punched his shoulder. “We can only resolve this matter ourselves. Grandpa will not do anything. I’ll go and get some rest first. I’m very tired.”
With that, she left.
Lu Yaohua and Atom were left staring at each other.
“Mr. Lu, repay the money..”
