nLu Ming followed Chen Ziqiu into the luxurious ward.
nThe first thing he saw was an old man with gray hair sitting on the bed. Only his eyes were bright and clear.
n
n
n“Thank you for saving me, young man.”
nHe turned to look at Lu Ming and said gently.
nHe still remembered that he had originally planned to meet up with his driver, but he was knocked down when he was walking on the pedestrian crossing and almost lost his life. Fortunately, this young man got out of his car in time and brought him to emergency. Then he successfully sent him into the examination room despite opposition from others.
nIf not for this young man, he would probably be long gone.
n
n
nAs he thought about this, his attitude became friendlier. “Young man, my name is Tang Mingkun. What is your name?”
n“My name is Lu Ming, Mr. Tang.”
nWho wouldn’t like someone with a good attitude?
nLu Ming curled the corners of his lips and asked, “How do you feel now? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
n
n
n“I’m fine now. I can even get off the bed and run a few rounds. Oh right, I heard that you waived my medical fees? How can I let you do that? You’re my lifesaver. It wouldn’t be right if I didn’t give you something, right?”
nTang Mingkun asked.
n“Not only did he save me, but he does not want my medical fees. Nowadays, it’s unusual to meet such kind people,” he thought.
nLu Ming shook his head and said, “I don’t lack money now. Besides, I saved you out of goodwill. I just don’t want an old person to die for no reason.”
nThe more Tang Mingkun looked at him, the more pleased he was.
nIn today’s society, there were people who were cold and ruthless. There were many instances of kindhearted people who helped the elderly but were, in turn, blackmailed by the elderly instead.
n
n
nSo many passers-by avoided the old man when he was lying on the ground as they were afraid that they would be implicated.
nTang Mingkun thought it was unusual to find such a warm-hearted and kind young man like Lu Ming.
n“Come over and let me take a look at you,” he said.
nAlthough Lu Ming did not know what the other party wanted to do, he knew he would not harm him. So he walked over.
nTang Mingkun looked at him for a while before raising his arm and rubbing his head.
n“What a good boy.”
nThis action reminded Lu Ming of his mother. In the past, his mother would often stroke his head and praise him for being promising.
nAt this thought, his eyes reddened slightly.
n
n
nTang Mingkun seemed to have read his thoughts. “Good children deserve more rewards.”
nHe lowered his hand and looked toward the door, “Ah Er, come in.”
nRight away, a burly man with an honest look walked in. He handed Lu Ming the luxurious gift in his hands. “Thank you, Mr. Lu, for saving my master. This is a greeting gift. Please accept it.”
nLu Ming was about to reject him when Tang Mingkun spoke first. “If you are unwilling to accept this, I will feel bad. Do take it.”
nLu Ming had no choice but to let Chen Ziqiu accept the gift on his behalf.
nTang Er scratched the back of his head and said in a rough voice, “Mr. Lu, you’re such a good person. If not for the fact that there wasn’t enough time, I would have gotten you a silk banner.”
nHe paused for a moment before continuing, “But don’t worry, I’ll definitely arrange for someone to send you a silk banner in a few days.”
nLu Ming wanted to say that there was no need to. However, he did not want to put a damper on their good intentions. He could only nod. “Thank you…”
n“I’m Tang Er, Old Master’s chauffeur and bodyguard. Mr. Lu, you can just call me Ah Er.”
nFacing the master’s savior, Tang Er was very enthusiastic.
nAfter all, in his opinion, saving Old Master’s life was equivalent to saving his own life. So he had to treat Lu Ming with special care. Furthermore, he had been remiss in letting Old Master get hit by a car.
n“Thanks, Ah Er.”
nLu Ming said smoothly.
n
n
nTang Mingkun smiled and asked, “Lu Ming, is there anything you want to do but have yet to do?”
nLu Ming was startled.
n“Is the other party trying to help me?” he wondered.
n“Have I saved a big shot?”
n“I want to destroy the Lu Corporation because Lu Yaohua abandoned his wife and son after he became rich. After that, he even had a child with Tang Wenyi. We did not have contact with each other for a few years, until their own child had diabetes. Because they wanted my kidney, they even resorted to playing dirty tricks on me.”
nHe summarized his experiences over the years in a few short sentences.
nWhen Chen Ziqiu heard this, her eyes widened!
nShe realized why the new boss did not want the Lu family to transfer their son here—they had such a past!
nShe felt that if it were her, she would definitely send Lu Yaohua and the rest to hell for what they had done.
nShe clenched her fists.
nShe thought that the new boss was some mysterious rich second-generation heir.
nFrom the looks of it, it must not have been easy for the new boss to land this position.
n“How hard it must have been,” she thought.
nWhen Tang Mingkun heard the name, Lu Yaohua, he felt that it sounded familiar. When he heard Tang Wenyi’s name, he remembered.
nA few years ago, the rich missy ignored her family’s opposition and married a man who had just gotten a divorce. He had heard about this before. So the young man who saved him was actually Lu Yaohua’s first wife’s son?!
n“And your mother?”
nLu Ming said calmly, “She passed away after a long illness.”
nHis gaze dropped. “Actually, she could have been cured, but we didn’t have any money back then.”
nIt could be said that Lu Yaohua was indirectly responsible for his mother’s death.
nTang Mingkun did not know what to say to comfort him. “They will pay the price. It’s just the Lu Corporation.”
nIt was clear from his words that he did not take Lu Yaohua seriously.
nAlthough Lu Ming did not know him, he felt that this old man might really be able to destroy the Lu family easily. There was something about the confidence in his eyes. He smiled lightly and said, “I will do it personally. I will make them regret it.”
nTang Mingkun looked at him. He did not look like he was joking.
nHe said, “I wanted to help you at first, but it seems like there’s nothing I can help you with at the moment. The Lu family isn’t a small company. Have you really thought it through?”
n“I know, but I will definitely trample them!”
nLu Ming wanted those people to live a miserable life!
nTang Mingkun nodded in satisfaction. Young people needed to have such courage.
nHe removed one of his cuffs and placed it in Lu Ming’s hands. “You saved my life. The Tang family owes you a favor. If ever you’re in need in the future, use this. It will help you solve your problem.”
n“Okay.”
nLu Ming did not stay in This Place for too long. He roamed for a while before driving to his new company.
nThe Eye of the Sky Investigation Company.
nThe company mainly did consultations or provided industry information for well-established companies and did background checks.
nIt was like a commercial database.
nThere was basically nothing they could not find out. Of course, they could also help to find out about affairs and so on.
nThe moment Lu Ming walked in, the employees who had all received the notification bowed and greeted him.
n“Hello, CEO Lu.”
nLu Ming nodded slightly. “Hello.”
nHe went straight to the front desk and said, “I need you all to help me investigate someone.”
