As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Ze said hurriedly, “Is that enough? Lu Ming! My entire body is in pain. Why don’t you give me the medicine first? After I recover, the Tang family is willing to agree to your conditions no matter what you say! Even if you want the Tang family business, we can consider it!”

But that was all lip service.

Everyone present knew very well that Lu Ming was in no mood to get involved in any family conflict. He smiled and said, “Actually, what I want is very simple. For example, I want you to lie in a hospital bed for the rest of your life. It’s best if you can watch the Tang family decline.”

“What do you mean?”

Lu Ze panicked! Did he go back on his word and not want to treat me? Then why did this person come over? An answer gradually appeared in his heart. His eyes widened in disbelief. It was… to see him make a fool of himself?! He knew that with their terrible relationship, the other party would definitely not hold back!

But now, he had no choice but to lower his head. He had to get the medicine and survive! Otherwise, all the beautiful futures he had imagined would no longer exist! Hence, he cried, “I know my mistake! I know my mistake! I shouldn’t have attacked you! I shouldn’t have slandered your wife and mother in secret! Please save me! I’m the only family you have left! Brother!”

Speaking of the word ‘brother’, he seemed to take it for granted. There was no hesitation or awkwardness at all. When people who didn’t know better saw this scene, they would think that his biological brother was bullying his younger brother. However, Lu Ming didn’t show the expression he had imagined. He didn’t waver at all. Lu Ze couldn’t help but go crazy!

What should I do? he thought. Is Lu Ming willing to save me now?! He has such a cold-blooded personality. I should have found someone to kill him back then! How many companies wanted to build relationships with me but could not? I’ve given Lu Ming so many chances, but this person acts as if he doesn’t see it! It’s really frustrating!

“Please don’t. I don’t deserve to be the grandson of the head of the Tang family. Besides, I don’t know when my mother gave birth to a younger brother for me. In order to clear your mother’s name as a mistress, you all forced my mother into a desperate situation. I don’t want to have anything to do with heartless people like you.

“However, if Miss Tang San is willing to kneel down and kowtow while apologizing, I might soften my heart and agree. Well, I’m too kind. I can’t bear to see someone die in front of me. Whether you want to seize this good opportunity depends on what you plan to do.”

Softhearted? Kind?

Are these two words related to Lu Ming? Isn’t he the reason why they have fallen to such a state?! If he’s considered to be softhearted and kind, then there are no ruthless people in this world! Even Tang Wenyi felt that she was far inferior to Lu Ming in terms of tricks!

Hence, she took the opportunity to say, “Old Master, did you see that? This fellow only knows how to push his luck. Even if I really do as he says, he might not be able to give us the medicine! Isn’t he blatantly playing with our Tang family? If the outside world finds out, won’t you lose face?”

Before the old man could react, someone beat him to it.

“Could it be that Third Miss Tang is rejecting my suggestion? I’m sure that as long as you do as I say, I’ll immediately give you the medicine. How about that? The choice is yours. If you still refuse, then there’s no need for me to stay here.”

Lu Ming was about to leave when Lu Ze’s face twisted even more. He shouted crazily, “No! You can’t leave! Lu Ming! You can’t do this to me! I’m your younger brother! I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die yet! Old Master! Think of something! Old Master!”

His miserable cries even reached the corridor. At first, the old master was still a little hesitant, but after hearing his precious grandson ask him for help, he couldn’t help but compromise. He said with an ugly expression, “Lu Ming, I hope you can keep your word. Otherwise, my Tang family will kill you even if we have to use all our strength!”

As soon as he finished speaking, his walking stick cut through the air and hit Tang Wenyi’s knee. She cried out in pain and her legs instantly knelt on the floor. She looked at the old master and Lu Ze in shock as if she had been betrayed. Before she could ask, she heard a cold voice above her head. “Apologize to Lu Ming first. Who asked you to provoke this lunatic? Just treat it as karma.”

For some reason, Tang Wenyi could hear the obvious gritted teeth in his words. She thought, If we have the initiative, Lu Ming would have obediently given us the medicine, right? She looked at her pale son and made up her mind. Immediately, there were sounds of kowtowing in the ward!

What followed was an apology.

“I’m sorry! Lu Ming! My biggest mistake was choosing to be your enemy! I shouldn’t have kept attacking you and Zhang Wenfang just because I was jealous! I shouldn’t have acted recklessly just because of my identity and background! I really know my mistake! I beg you to forgive me! I’ll take responsibility for my own actions. It doesn’t matter what you want me to do. I beg you to let go of my child! I’m sorry…”

Time passed minute by minute. Soon blood appeared on Tang Wenyi’s forehead. Even the white floor was stained red. It looked like a murder scene! The old master’s heart couldn’t help but ache. This was his favorite child! Now he could only watch helplessly as she was bullied.

His usually straight back finally bent down, and his eyes were filled with fatigue. Lu Ming had better not let him find an opportunity. Otherwise, he would not be able to control himself and would kill him with his own hands!

As for Lu Ming, he watched all of this calmly. Tang Wenyi’s sorrowful appearance gradually merged with his recollection of his mother. Back then, his mother did the same thing, right? Just so that Tang Wenyi would let him off, she said that the grudges of the previous generation should not implicate innocent juniors. She was willing to let Tang Wenyi deal with her in whatever way as long as her son survived.

And what did Tang Wenyi say?

She refused without hesitation, coupled with mockery.

“How much do you think your life is worth? You want me to let this little bastard off? Do you really think I’m a living Buddha? Zhang Wenfang, you don’t have the right to negotiate with me. You won’t be able to resist no matter how I attack you now. As long as you breathe for a second, I won’t let you and your son off.

“By the way, I heard that you’re a university graduate? Tsk, there’s no one else who can get to where you are. In my opinion, poor people like you can’t catch up to me no matter how hard you work. If you can reflect on your mistakes, I’ll let you off today.”
