Stepmother: I Am Asked To Give A Kidney To My Half-Brother-Chapter 442 - Storm Arrives
Chapter 442: Storm Arrives
This was clearly specially set up for the old leader! Lu Ming actually didn’t reveal any information previously. Isn’t he too tight-lipped?!?Just as their minds were racing, Lu Ming stood up and made a cup of tea for his godfather and the old leader. He said, “I think the two of you should already know the basic situation, right?”
When they were in the private room, they had discussed it. When it was about time, he would say the word ‘order’. This way, the two of them would be able to walk into the room in a timely manner. Then the two sides would not end up in an ugly situation. He said, “Although the tea here is not as good as the tea at the old leader’s house, it’s not bad.”
“Indeed, even though I’ve long heard of this Baohua Restaurant, this is my first time here. Old Tang, try it quickly. What if it suits your taste? It’ll save you the trouble of snatching tea leaves from me and asking Lu Ming to clean up your mess!” 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚
The old leader nudged his good friend with his elbow and said, “As an elder, you have to set a good example for children no matter what. If you can make me worry less like Little Ming one day, I might even be able to live for another few decades. Perhaps I will get to see Little Ming’s child.”
He said the last sentence with a hint of mischief. Lu Ming couldn’t help but laugh and shake his head. Why did he drag him into this? His face turned red uncontrollably. Although he and Little Yu didn’t have any plans in this aspect for the time being, he still felt restrained when the old leader said it so openly.
Tang Mingkun chuckled and said, “My appetite has long been spoiled. It’s difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. Besides, I think you’re just envious that I have a good son. Weren’t you very energetic when you chased after me? Besides, it’s too boring to live for so long. A few decades is enough.”
Not far away, Chief Zhao and Chen Jianxin were stunned by the warm atmosphere. It was not good to live for too long. How could this be said to the old leader? They saw the disbelief in each other’s eyes! The old leader was actually so familiar with Tang Mingkun?! He treated Lu Ming like he was a junior that he liked. This was the first time they had seen such an old leader!
Just as they fell into a whirlpool of disbelief, the old leader looked at them again and said, “Aren’t you going to explain? When did the Drug Administration become your sole authority? You delayed this matter for no reason. If you can’t say anything today, don’t blame me for being merciless!”
Immediately, their bodies trembled!
The old leader was angry!
The consequences were quite serious. It was hard to say if they could even secure their positions! Hence, they couldn’t care less and immediately told them the entire process of Fang Tiancheng looking for them. Only then did the truth come out. It was just as Lu Ming and Tang Mingkun had guessed.
Fang Tiancheng had used his shares to seek revenge, dragging countless commoners into the abyss of death!
Even though the old leader was mentally prepared before he came, he could not help but slam the table when the truth was right in front of him. Chief Zhao and Chen Jianxin thought that he was dissatisfied with their confession. The former hurriedly said, “I thought that Mr. Fang did this under your orders. Who would have thought that this was his personal idea! S-Sorry!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Jianxin quickly echoed, “That’s right! It’s all our fault for not thinking through the logic clearly. We were fooled for a moment! We definitely won’t do it again! Please forgive us. We promise to approve This Place No. 1 as soon as we get back!”
The old leader was unmoved. He just looked at them sullenly.

As time passed, the atmosphere became more and more solemn. The only ones who were not affected were Tang Mingkun and Lu Ming. The former was leisurely drinking tea, while the latter was tapping the table with his index finger, agreeing with the sound of the clock, forming a harmonious tune. 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐om
It was unlikely that Lu Ming was not angry. After all, his team had spent a lot of effort to develop This Place No. 1. In the end, it was not used in the early stages of the epidemic. However, the two chiefs were only following orders. They thought that Fang Tiancheng’s words were the orders of their old leader. Because it had always been like this, they firmly followed the orders.
Ultimately, they were also victims. Cannon fodder.
Could I blame them for following orders too slavishly? Isn’t this the nature of a soldier? It’s all because Fang Tiancheng is too greedy!?He sighed and said, “Old leader, I don’t think they know the truth. Just let them learn a lesson.
They only did as Fang Tiancheng said and made a huge mistake! As the mastermind of this incident, I think it’s necessary to make an example out of him! If you investigate him again, you might be able to find out how much he has done in secret all these years.”
To be honest, he did not want to help the chiefs. But now that things had come to this, he did not want both sides to be embarrassed. If the old leader fired both chiefs at once, the Drug Administration would probably not be able to resume operations in the short term. Also, it was a fact that they were both seniors who had worked hard all these years.
The epidemic was still raging. If they lacked mainstays now, wouldn’t that make things worse?
Hearing that someone was speaking up for them, Chief Zhao and Chen Jianxin immediately looked at him gratefully. They had thought that with their previous attitude, it would be good enough if the other party did not kick them when they were down. They did not expect that he would be willing to help them at a critical moment!?What a good person!
Lu Ming, who had no idea that he had been labeled a good person, was speechless.
Chen Jianxin suddenly thought of the photos that Lu Ming had shown him last time. Just because of a few words from Fang Tiancheng, so many people had suffered an undeserved calamity. He was also responsible for what had happened! Thinking of this, he lowered his head and said, “I’m willing to accept punishment! But I hope to resolve the infectious disease first.
I won’t have any complaints even if you make someone else the chief after that!”
Chief Zhao also said firmly, “If we had chosen to ask more questions at that time, perhaps this matter wouldn’t have developed to this point. I’m also willing to accept punishment! But please let me do my part! I don’t want to disappoint the people who believe in us!”
“… Very good. If you did something wrong, you have to admit it! Otherwise, I really have to consider if it’s time for some new blood!”
The old leader rubbed the armrest and said, “Before the infectious disease ends, all of you have to be 120% focused on this matter! We’ll talk about the rest later. It depends on your performance!”
