Chapter 106: The Price
I don't know how long it took for Lu Jiming to recover from the violent emotions that were about to suffocate him in his heart.
With stiff steps, he walked into the bedroom.
The night light was dim, shining on the sleeping Ning Yu's face, making her sleep peaceful and quiet.
Lu Jiming's violent emotions that wanted to kill suddenly disappeared at this moment.
He sat at the head of the bed and stared at her quietly.
The heart seemed to be pinched hard, and an unprecedented pain and soreness spread from the heart.
I'm sorry......
It's all his fault......
He had the smell of alcohol and undried blood, so he didn't dare to hug her.
Only dare to reach out and gently stroke her hair.
After a long time, a tear fell into her thick black hair and disappeared......
Early the next morning, Ning Yi found the wound on his face, and under her questioning, he had to make up a reason why someone was making trouble at last night's banquet.
In the next few days, he also pushed everything about the company and was tired of being with Ning Yu all day long.
When the ten-day deadline arrived, Gu Huai did not take the initiative to find the door.
But the next day, he received a call from Lu Zhengcheng and asked him to go back immediately.
*
Lu family study.
After many days, Lu Zhengcheng's illness is almost better, but he has lost a lot of weight, and his clothes look empty on his body.
When Lu Zhengcheng saw him, he was not as cold as when he met before, he looked at Lu Jiming for a moment and sat back slowly.
"I have seen all the achievements you have made in the company during this time."
"It's really good."
Lu Zhengcheng has always been dissatisfied with him and rarely praises him.
But finally got his rare recognition, but Lu Jiming didn't see any joy on his face, and only stood in place with his eyes down.
Sure enough, seeing that he didn't speak, Lu Zhengcheng coughed twice and continued: "You have made such great progress, which means that you are a person who has the ability to understand and improve." ”
"If you want to achieve great things, you must know how to make trade-offs, and those things that children love and love are the least worth mentioning."
At this point, what is there that is not clear?
The corners of Lu Jiming's lips squeezed out a faint smile, and finally raised his eyes to look at Lu Zhengcheng, his eyes were firm, and he said word by word: "Father, no matter what Gu Huai said to you, I won't break up with Ning Yi, you better die of this heart as soon as possible." ”
His straightforward and resolute attitude immediately annoyed Lu Zhengcheng.
He slammed the table and scolded, "Say it again! ”
Lu Jiming was not afraid to retreat, and looked at him: "I won't change it if I say it ten times." ”
Watching Lu Zhengcheng pull out the familiar family method, he even raised his voice with a bruised face: "Even if you kill me today, I won't change it." ”
Lu Zhengcheng looked at him for a long time, and finally threw the stick back to its original position.
After a long silence that was almost suffocating, Lu Zhengcheng's mocking voice finally sounded-
"Even my brother dared to kill, but in the end it was planted on a woman."
"Useless stuff!"
The two ordinary sentences were like a thunderclap in the flat ground, instantly turning Lu Jiming's thoughts into ashes.
He was like a petrified statue, staring at Lu Zhengcheng for a long time before he could find his voice.
"Father, you ...... What does that mean? ”
Lu Zhengcheng glanced at him, his eyes were full of banter and understanding that he had already seen through, and sneered: "What, I said it wrong?" ”
"When you were climbing the mountain, you weren't the one who cut your brother's rope with your own hands?"
Lu Jiming's face was bloody, as if he had been punched in the abdomen, he couldn't speak, and could only look at Lu Zhengcheng with gradually sad eyes.
Lu Zhengcheng sat back in the carved wooden chair, his rough fingers that had grown green because of age held the armrest of the chair, and said, "Your brother is a good boy, smart and sensible, and he is also talented in business. ”
"He is very similar to when I was younger, but the only thing that is different from me at that time is that I am most dissatisfied with him, my heart is too soft."
When Lu Zhengcheng mentioned this eldest son who died early, deep regret appeared on his face, and he shook his head and sighed: "Soft-hearted and kind-hearted, I can't distinguish friend from foe, and I can't be ruthless." ”
He said: "I am now able to reach this position with my own efforts alone, and have made remarkable achievements in both the political and business worlds, and naturally I know how deadly and terrible soft-heartedness can be for a person." ”
"I've been teaching him to abandon this weakness, but he's a kid who doesn't listen."
Lu Zhengcheng glanced at Lu Jiming, who was pale, and suddenly laughed: "Do you really think that I don't know about the conversation between me and your brother when you stayed in front of the study and eavesdropped on my conversation with your brother?" ”
Lu Jiming met his slightly cold and smiling gaze, and his pupils contracted uncontrollably.
It was also that eavesdropping that made him murderous.
It turns out that these ...... Does Lu Zhengcheng know?
"What are you so nervous about?"
Lu Zhengcheng looked at the cold sweat on his forehead and said, "You should be happy." ”
"If I hadn't seen the crazy extreme unwillingness and ambition on your face, you wouldn't have been able to get ahead at all."
At that time, he was still Lu Mingyuan, and he frankly showed resentment and resentment because of his father's endless belittlement and favoritism, but Lu Zhengcheng saw from him at that time the ambition potential that he admired.
Lu Zhengcheng slowly retracted his gaze and looked out the window, as if recalling the scene of the year.
"The night before you went to climb the mountain, I called him over alone and showed him the surveillance footage, and I said that you might attack him tomorrow."
Lu Jiming clenched his fists, so hard that he turned pale, and looked at Lu Zhengcheng with an indifferent face in disbelief.
"Your brother didn't believe anything, so I made a bet with him."
He raised his hand and pointed at Lu Jiming, who was stunned in place: "The bet is - whether you will attack him." ”
Lu Zhengcheng shook his head: "It's a pity, he lost." ”
The price was also tragic, it was his young and fresh life.
