Instantly, he felt crushed under the weight of two mountains.
Shi Tian wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said, “Even a shareholder can’t divert public funds, right? Madam, please don’t make things difficult for me. I’m just an employee. Why don’t I call the CEO now? As long as he agrees, I’ll immediately give you the money.”
He knew the consequences of this matter, which was why he was so careful.
To his surprise, Tang Wenyi said angrily, “Lu Yaohua has to listen to me. Who do you think you are?! Aren’t his things mine? It’s just his name on the company. What’s the big deal! Besides, this company will belong to the Tang family sooner or later. Can’t I just take some money?!”
She paused for a moment and continued, “Without my Tang family, could the Lu Corporation have been established so smoothly? If you make me unhappy, I’ll withdraw my investment. I’d like to see if this company will collapse! You don’t want to lose your job that was hard to come by just like that, right?”
Her words were full of threat and conceit.
Shi Tian looked at her and wiped his sweat more quickly. His lips quivered weakly. He knew very well how powerful the Tang family in Beijing was. Tang Wenyi was a big shot that he could not afford to offend.
As if in compromise, he said, “You have to promise not to implicate me in this matter. How about that?”
“Alright! I’ll take responsibility for my own actions. I, Tang Wenyi, am not a petty person!”
Tang Wenyi said readily, “How much does the company have now?”
“500 million yuan.”
Shi Tian flipped through the accounts book and answered, “This is all we can squeeze out.”
“Just 500 million yuan?”
Tang Wenyi was born into the Tang family and had no concept of money. Even when her company had a problem recently and she went home to borrow money but was beaten up, she did not take it to heart because she felt that it was just a small sum of money. Lu Yaohua would earn it back soon.
That was typical of her.
“Forget it, it’s barely enough.”
The corners of Shi Tian’s mouth twitched. The CEO had married a true-blue rich missy. He reminded her, “I have already transferred all the money to you. Please return the money as soon as possible within the next three months. Otherwise, the longer this drags on, the more likely Boss Lu will find out.”
Tang Wenyi looked at the notification on her phone and nodded in satisfaction.
“That’s right, you’re sensible!”
He watched as the lady boss walked away and sighed heavily. He wondered what she was doing with so much money. Could she be investing?
He shook his head. How is this possible?
Tang Wenyi seemed to be quite shrewd. She would not have done something so irrational… Perhaps?
He was not sure. After all, she was known to dote on her son. Perhaps she was using money to amuse Lu Ze. Does she really have the money to pay back?
This question lingered in his mind. He had not been sleeping or eating well these past few days. He prayed that she would repay the money quickly.
In stark contrast to him was Lu Ze.
He had been living a good life recently!
Ever since he invested 500 million yuan in Dogecoin, he could see an uncountable amount of money in his account every day. This made him feel better day by day, and even his attitude towards Assistant Wei improved.
At least he was not throwing things at him.
This also allowed Assistant Wei to heave a sigh of relief, so when Lu Ze suggested going to the bar to meet his friends, he did not stop him. He gave Lu Ze and himself a break.
He sat not far away on the sofa, looking at the liveliest bunch quietly.
“Cheers!”
A few people clinked their glasses, making crisp sounds!
Lu Ze could not contain his joy as he said, “You don’t know how much money I made! When I saw the balance on my phone at first, I thought I was dreaming! Oh right, how much did you make? You must have a small gold bank, right?”
“That’s true! I’ve invested all my money. Now, it’s gradually increasing by 40 to 50 thousand yuan every day. It’s much better than gambling!”
Red Hair scratched the back of his head and said embarrassedly.
Blue Hair added, “I don’t have much. Just about 70 thousand yuan. This is really very profitable.”
He was glad that he had come to the bar back then. Otherwise, he might never know of such a good deal in his life. He felt really lucky!
“What are you people doing? I’m earning two to three hundred thousand yuan now!”
Yellow Hair was the last to play. He only followed suit after confirming that everyone else was making money, so much so that he regretted not playing earlier. Perhaps he could have made more money!
Lu Ze said conceitedly, “The money you guys earn is not even enough to fill the gaps between my teeth! You definitely didn’t invest much, right? Your earnings can’t even compare to a fraction of mine!”
“Does Young Master Lu mean that he spent a lot of money? Tell us everything!”
Blue Hair asked curiously. The other two also turned their gazes to the protagonist in the middle.
“Not much.”
Lu Ze waved his hand and said nonchalantly, but the bragging in his voice was obvious. “Only 500 million yuan. I can earn a few hundred million yuan every day!”
“What the heck! Young Master Lu is awesome!”
“500 million yuan! This is not a small sum. It’s comparable to all my family’s assets!”
“And this is not much? We can’t compare to Young Master Lu!”
The three of them talked at once.
This satisfied Lu Ze’s vanity greatly. Look! How articulate are my underlings? he thought. As the young master of the Lu family, I was born to be like this!
Unfortunately, this atmosphere did not last long. A young man in a white shirt walked over with a beauty in his arms. “This is really a surprise. Look who I’m seeing? It’s actually Young Master Lu? I heard that your family is going bankrupt soon. Where did you get the money to spend here?”
Lu Ze’s expression turned ugly.
Other than Lu Ming, this person was his biggest rival—Zhou Youming!
He was the young master of the Zhou family. He was also a competitor of the Lu Corporation!
“I have so much money now that I can’t fit them all in my pocket. Do you think I take money from my family like you?”
Zhou Youming pretended to be surprised and said, “Why? Isn’t it true? You can earn money? The sun must be rising from the west.”
“Bullsh*t! I’ve been speculating in cryptocurrencies recently! The crypto market is equivalent to my ATM! I get as much as I want and I don’t lose anything!”
In a fit of anger, Lu Ze told him what he was doing.
Zhou Youming was stunned for a few seconds. This thing seemed to have suddenly become popular. He heard that many people earned money, but he thought that it was a rumor. Now, looking at Lu Ze…
Could this be real? he wondered.
Even though he was doubtful, he said calmly, “Oh, so what? You’ll make losses sooner or later.”
