Chapter 214 Negotiation
Yes, to Tang Wenyi, it was just a few lives. It was nothing. Besides, what Lu Ze did was unintentional. After he was released, she could just teach him well. In her eyes, he did not commit such grave sins that he had to go to prison.
When Old Master heard her words, he did not retort. As the saying goes, ‘People who don’t belong together don’t get to live together.’ As a family, they shared the same traits. After all, there are many people who have done worse than Lu Ze, he thought. On what basis should they arrest my grandson but not others?
“My family’s lawyers are not capable of releasing the people arrested by the Double Regulations. I’ve already asked them. At most, they could reduce the sentence by a few years. But if this matter is dealt with by a strict judge, it will likely be a life sentence and they can only reduce it to 50 to 60 years. When he comes out, he’ll be older than me!”
Tang Wenyi panicked on the other end of the phone. “Then, then what should we do? We’ve placed all our hopes on you. If you can’t do anything about it, won’t Ah Ze’s life be over? Old Master, I beg you, please think of a way. I only have one son!”
The old master heaved a long sigh. He instinctively thought of Lu Ming’s face and gritted his teeth in anger! He was indeed the adopted son of that sly old fox, Tang Mingkun. He had forced Lu Ze to a dead end! Damn it, little bastard! he thought. He would never let Lu Ming off!
“I know a law firm. If it’s them, there’s a high chance that they can save Lu Ze. Their professional ability can be considered top-notch in the industry. If they can’t do anything about it, then there won’t be any lawyers in the country who can help Lu Ze. If I remember correctly, the name is some Themis Law Firm.”
He looked at Butler He uncertainly. Butler He nodded. “It’s Themis. It’s said that its headquarters are in Shanghai and the office is quite close to Third Miss.” “Yes, that’s it. Do you understand?”
Tang Wenyi, who was far away in Shanghai, fell silent. She looked at Lu Yaohua in disbelief. Did I hear wrongly? The old man actually asked me to collaborate with Themis?! She had heard that this law firm would not fight a war that they had no chance of winning, but the problem was…
“Old Master, do you know who the boss of Themis is?”
The baffling question stunned the old master for a moment. He asked curiously, “Who is it? What has this got to do with seeking cooperation?”
“Yes! It’s too important! The boss of Themis is Lu Ming!”
Lu Ming? he thought.
The old master’s eyes widened. Why is this little bastard everywhere?!

“Are you sure? Isn’t his business development too broad?”
An affirmative answer came from the other end. “It’s not like you don’t know. A while ago, that bastard merged all the companies under him, and Themis was one of them. Also… Themis filed a lawsuit against us on behalf of those at the bottom in the matter of the Lu Corporation cutting corners and building unsafe apartments.” Both parties did not know what to say. The old master rubbed his temples and could not help but sigh. Why do I feel like this world is joking with us?
He said helplessly, “Whether it works or not, we have to try first. Who knows, the other party might really agree to collaborate? We have nowhere to go.”
If not for the fact that they could not find a good lawyer, would they have gone to look for their enemy?
“Okay.”
Shanghai, Youhua Café.
Zhou Feng sat by the window and looked at the short, fat middle-aged man with a faint smile. He said, “4 million yuan. Are you willing to collaborate with us?”
The middle-aged man rolled his eyes and rubbed his hands in an unscrupulous manner. He said, “You should know that my life is quite difficult, right? This is not a small matter. 4 million yuan is not enough to offend the Lu family, but if you’re willing to give me 5 million yuan, I will comply!” This kind of person was someone who took advantage of others. If Zhou Feng had suggested 5 million yuan, perhaps he would raise it to 6 million yuan. He was testing his bottom line step by step! He was not a fool.
Zhou Feng rolled his eyes vaguely and said, “I’ve doubled the price! Mr. Wang Dong, I advise you not to be ungrateful. I’m willing to pay so much money to give you face, but you’re going too far. Actually, I don’t mind not giving you a single cent and using my power to force you to tell the truth. Don’t forget, dealing with you is as easy as crushing an ant!”
He took a leisurely sip of coffee and continued, “Four million yuan is my bottom line. Don’t use the Lu family to suppress me. The Lu family is nothing now. What are you afraid of?! Lu Yaohua can only give you 2 million yuan. Doubling it is enough to show my sincerity!”
“How can you say that? You’re asking me for a favor now, right? If you’re unwilling, then forget it.”
Although Wang Dong said that, his body did not show the slightest intention of leaving. He wanted to use this to threaten Zhou Feng to achieve his goal!
A glint flashed across his eyes. He did not expect his luck to be so good lately. People had been coming, one after another, to give him money!
