Chapter 385: Embarrassing
“Firstly, the higher-ups will definitely start investigating us. Secondly, the status of the family will definitely become worse with the public. We might even end up being labeled as tyrants and dictators. Wouldn’t this put us in an even more precarious situation! Tang Wenyi, I’m starting to suspect that you’re an undercover agent sent by someone else!”
He had seen people walk slowly, but this was the first time he had seen someone sprint in the opposite direction!
No. 3 was the only one in the world who would lose so much for such a small benefit. If word got out, he would feel ashamed!
“Do you want Lu Ming to laugh at us?! No wonder he chased you out of Shanghai with a flick of his finger. Anyone with a bit of ability can make a stupid person like you die miserably! With your intelligence, do you still want to fight him? I think you won’t have a chance in this lifetime!
I knew that I shouldn’t have allowed Ah Ze to be raised by you in the first place! If I had known earlier, I would have snatched him away even if I had to! At least, he wouldn’t have ended up in a miserable state and been sent to prison! If it were me that Lu Ming was dealing with, would he be able to ride on our heads now?!”
He was confident that with his ability, dealing with a mere Lu Ming was nothing. It could be said to be overkill. If not for the fact that he was old and had limited energy, he would not have watched helplessly as Lu Ming tricked the Tang family again and again!
He recalled their meeting in Shanghai. If not for the fact that he did not bring enough people and could not kill him, he would not have been chased back to the capital by that old fellow, Tang Mingkun! Now that he was in his territory, he still had to consider the consequences and had no choice but to sit back and watch!
He knew that people were secretly mocking his stupidity. After all, in their opinion, it was not worth it to have a death feud with Lu Ming Corporation! Moreover, they were quite optimistic about Lu Ming! It was the same for him. Every time he saw Lu Ming Corporation on the news, he couldn’t help wishing that Lu Ming was part of the Tang family.
All of this should belong to the Tang family!?he thought.
Unfortunately… If not for No. 3’s instigation, how could the Tang family have been dragged into the mud?
Thinking of this, his expression became dark and gloomy. He said, “Since you have so much energy, I won’t stand on ceremony! I originally wanted to give you a short time to recuperate, but now it seems that I was thinking too much! I shouldn’t have been soft-hearted towards you!”
After hearing that, Tang Wenyi was stunned on the spot. She couldn’t stand hearing about her mortal enemy being stronger than her!?Old Master even belittled my intelligence! Am I that stupid?! He’s too biased! In terms of intelligence, even if I can’t compare to Fifth Sister, I am more than enough to crush the other sisters!
She almost blurted out what she had done recently, but she couldn’t! Since the plan wasn’t completed, so what if she received the old man’s praise? She was even more afraid that the other sisters would stop her by any means!?Just wait! When I spread the money I’ve earned in front of Old Master, I don’t believe that he will still talk to me with such an attitude!
I will prove it with facts—I’m the most promising person in the Tang family!
She clenched her fists silently.?Although I’m no longer young, there are many people in this world who have come into their own late in life. Everything that Lu Ming has now is just because he is lucky, and I am the real deal! Is Lu Ming Corporation powerful? I’d create an even more powerful company!
Butler He looked at her frowning one moment and looking happy the next. He sighed helplessly in his heart.?She is hopeless.
The old man couldn’t be bothered to argue with her anymore. He said, “Within this week, finish copying the parts of the Great Wisdom Sutra that I requested previously. If you miss a word, you’ll get a lash of the whip. If you faint, I’ll get someone to splash cold water on you to wake you up. As long as you’re still breathing, I won’t let you off easily!”
“What do you mean?”
Unless I die, it’s impossible for me to have a peaceful life in the future. Why does he have to treat me like this?! The other sisters can come and go freely, even the ones who play mahjong. I’ve only made an inappropriate comment on the Internet. Is there a need to be like this? Although my plan has failed badly, my original intention was good. What’s wrong with me wanting to contribute?
It’s better than Second Sister and Fourth Sister playing mahjong every day without thinking about improving themselves, right? I went in the wrong direction. Can’t he give me more chances to try? I’m still in my prime, and I’m not so old that I can’t move like him. Why can’t he be more benevolent to me?
However, she did not realize that the Old Master had already shown her enough favoritism. No. 2 and No. 4 had been given fewer opportunities. And when it came to hard work, how could Tang Wenyi compare to No. 1 and No. 5, who were busy with company matters every day and even slept in the office? If he was more tolerant, he was afraid that the Tang family would be ruined by Tang Wenyi!
“Old Master! You can’t go back on your word. You clearly said that you could let me rest. I haven’t recovered yet! Moreover, there are only two days left. How can I be so good at copying? Even if I don’t eat, drink, or sleep, I might not be able to complete it…”
Before she could finish, the old man interrupted her coldly, “Then write round the clock, even if you don’t eat, drink, or sleep! How will you know if you don’t try? Didn’t you ask me to give you a chance? Fine! I’ll give it to you now! If you can’t grasp this opportunity well, then no matter what you say, I will have nothing to do with you!”
These words made Tang Wenyi swallow her words. She didn’t expect the Old Master to be so heartless.?What is the difference between him and Lu Ming?! Demons! They are all demons who want to force her into a dead end! Just the thought of that long and incomprehensible scripture made her eyes turn black! Why am I so unlucky?
“Old Master! I’ll die! Do you want me to die in your hands? I’m your daughter!”
“Since I can give you life, I can take it back! Besides, I won’t let you die like this. If this gets out, they will think that I’m a cold-blooded and heartless monster! I’ll arrange for someone to send you timely meals. It’s just that you have to finish your food within the stipulated time. If you exceed the time, you’ll have to continue copying Buddhist scriptures whether you’re full or not!”
The old man harshly formulated this series of plans and said, “Butler He will personally keep an eye on you this time! Last time, I heard from a servant that you used your position to force her to take a break? You even tormented her by playing all kinds of tricks. If she didn’t do as she was told, she would be fired?”
Tang Wenyi was shocked. How did the old master know about this!?
