Just as she finished venting her anger and was idly curling the stray hair by her ear, the office was pushed open again. Tang Boyan walked in with his walking stick expressionlessly. He first glanced at Lu Ming, then looked at Chu Jinyu and said, “Looks like the Iron Lady’s daughter is only so-so.”

Chu Jinyu was stunned.

She stood rooted to the ground in a daze. When did this person come? Could it be that he had heard everything I said? Before she could react, Lu Ming retorted with a smile, “Is eavesdropping the upbringing of the prestigious Tang family in the capital? The upper beam is so crooked. It’s not surprising that he raised someone as stupid as Tang Wenyi.”

His words immediately choked the old master!

Lu Ming did not give him any time to react. He said quickly, “You didn’t knock before coming in. Those who don’t know better will think that my Lu Ming Corporation has become your Tang family’s territory. You don’t have any manners at all. Instead, you asked others to do this and that. Who do you think you are?”

He said something rather rude in an extremely calm tone. He crossed his hands at his desk and acted like a host. When he saw the veins on Tang Boyan’s forehead, he knew that he had the upper hand. However, the Tang family was really brave. This Shaping was his territory. Where did he get the courage to behave atrociously in front of the host?

Moreover, he even tried to beat his wife up to show off his might! Just thinking about it made Lu Ming feel this was ridiculous! Tang Boyan had really lived too comfortably these few decades and was lawless!

Chu Jinyu also came back to her senses at this moment. She snorted and said, “Patriarch Tang, you have the cheek to criticize me? I heard that your son was infected with an epidemic disease in prison? Isn’t this just like the saying that evil people will be punished by the heavens? This is your retribution. You even go to the temple to pray every few days. You don’t even know if you put in the effort!

“Others might think that you guys are kind-hearted, but if you didn’t do anything wrong, you won’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. If what you guys did in private is exposed, guess how many times the Tang family will die? I hope that Lu Ze will continue to live like this. After all, this is only the beginning. Next, the Tang family will fall into an eternal abyss!”

She seemed to have thought of something and said mockingly, “I remember that the Tang family was in a mess a while ago, right? The more flustered you are, the more problems you will expose. Don’t let us catch you red-handed. Also, I advise you to behave yourself in the near future. Otherwise, we won’t let go of any opportunity to destroy the Tang family!”

Faced with these two people’s sarcasm, the old master was furious! He tried his best to calm down and was no longer as arrogant as before! He held his walking stick tightly and said with a burning gaze, “I advise you not to go too far. I’m your elder after all…”

“What kind of elder are you? What right do you have to say that?”

“Elder? When did your Tang family become my Chu family?”

The words that Lu Ming and Chu Jinyu blurted out pierced Tang Boyan’s heart one after another. He took another deep breath and said, “I’m here to buy This Place No. 3 today. As long as Lu Ming Corporation is willing to sell it to me, take it that my Tang family owes you a favor. Name a price. I’ll buy it no matter how much it costs!”

“You want to buy it, but I don’t want to sell it!”

Lu Ming supported his chin with his hand and said, “I have a grudge against Tang Wenyi and the Tang family for killing my mother. Back then, they almost killed me too. Do you think you’ll be happy if I say the same thing after killing your mother and you? I don’t want to have anything to do with the Tang family, not to mention favors!”

The old master’s body trembled slightly. He didn’t know that this bastard’s memory would be so good! He couldn’t help but blame his third daughter in his heart. What did he say at that time? If one didn’t remove the roots, the grass would grow again when the spring breeze blew. In the end, his third daughter didn’t pay attention to it! If Lu Ming had died long ago, would he have to lower his head to a brat at his age?!

“What do you want? You have to know that if the Lu Ming Corporation wants to develop smoothly in the capital, the Tang family is the best help! Once I make a move, who dares not give me face? Only you dare to go against the Tang family! Moreover, since This Place No. 3 has already been made, the other companies will definitely do the same! I…”

Lu Ming immediately interrupted him and said, “Then you can wait a little longer and buy other companies’ medicine to treat Lu Ze. If it’s really that easy to replicate This Place No. 3, guess why the other pharmaceutical companies are acting like they’re dead now? Are you treating me like a fool?

“Patriarch Tang.”

The old man stood rooted to the ground. That’s right! Wasn’t it precisely because it was too difficult to replicate that those people gave up? Even the Tang family had studied the prescription for This Place No. 3, but their subordinates couldn’t figure out the ratio! He had wanted to trick the other party just now. What if the other party really sold the medicine to him?

Why was Lu Ming even more difficult to deal with than before? With such rapid growth, he couldn’t help but envy Tang Mingkun’s luck! When he thought of his five daughters, only No. 5 was smart. The eldest was barely useful, and the remaining three…

No. 2 and No. 4 played mahjong all day long. No. 3 was quite ambitious, but she always messed things up. She was hopeless!

“I understand the grievance and anger in your heart, but I think it’s only a misunderstanding between us. I didn’t want to kill your mother, let alone—”

“Stop, I can’t be bothered to listen to your excuses. Even if you want to find an excuse, you should find a reasonable one, right? What do you mean by a misunderstanding? I ‘accidentally’ killed you. Can I also say that it was a misunderstanding? You can definitely forgive me, right? Patriarch Tang, don’t use hypocritical words on me. I won’t be fooled by you because of the Tang family’s power.”

Lu Ming said calmly, “Even if Lu Ming Corporation goes against you now, it’s still unknown who will win! At least for now, you need my help. Your subordinate was the same before. If you ask me, you should have the attitude of asking for help. Since you don’t have this attitude, I don’t think we have anything to talk about.”

In other words, he could leave.

In the past, the old man would have left without looking back, but his precious grandson was still waiting for him! Lu Ze’s figure subconsciously appeared in his mind. What was face compared to a human life? He gritted his teeth and said, “… Please, Mr. Lu, as long as it’s something I can give you, I’ll agree to your conditions!”

Tang Boyan, who had always valued face more than anyone else, finally lowered his head for Lu Ze.
