Stepmother: I Am Asked To Give A Kidney To My Half-Brother Chapter 318

He finally said what he was thinking. He would fulfill a small request. They knew very well that if it were anyone else who said this, it probably wouldn’t mean so much. The reason why they came here was to ask for help from the old leader.

When a normal person heard this, even if he tried to resist temptation, he wouldn’t be willing to let go of this big piece of cake. But Lu Ming wasn’t an ordinary person.

“I’m very sure that a meal is enough! Besides, my company is developing well now. I don’t need any other help.”

His tone was firm and he did not waver.

The old leader continued to probe, “Your ambition should be more than that, right? Don’t you want to take Lu Ming Corporation to a higher level? As long as you’re willing to make this request to me, I can help you achieve your goal in the shortest time possible. I think you should think about it carefully. This is your only chance.”

Lu Ming did not answer for a long time. The old leader thought that he was starting to waver. Although he could not help but feel a little disappointed, he knew it was not easy for anyone to resist for so long. It was just that Lu Ming needed to be pushed a little harder. He began to look forward to what other shocking things this young man could do in the future!

Just as he was about to give Lu Ming a way out, he heard him complain, “… Old leader, you remind me of the witches in fairy tales who tricked little mermaids. Even if it’s a free lunch, it’s not so easy to get this pie. Besides, I’ve always believed that what’s in my hand is the safest.

I’ve never denied my ambition, because I do want to lead Lu Ming Corporation to a higher place. However, I can do this with my team. There’s no need for others to help. After all, it’s better to be happy together than alone. I had the chance to have a meal and play chess with you today. At least I’m feeling good now, so it’s enough.”

As soon as he said this, the old leader could not help but think more highly of him. It was good to be ambitious, but it was even better to be able to restrain his desires at the right time. Before this, he had never met such a resolute and mature young man. As long as he tempted people a few times, those people would throw away their armor and respond solicitously.

Today he met a tough nut to crack.

His eyes flashed with approval as he smiled and said, “A meal isn’t enough for me to pay for playing chess with a master like you. Since you’re so persistent, why don’t you stay for both lunch and dinner? I’ll get Auntie Zhang to make it more sumptuous so that I won’t feel bad!”

Initially, he only planned to have him over for breakfast. However, after getting to know him better, he was willing to let Lu Ming stay and treat him to two more meals. In other words, they would chat or play chess here all day. If outsiders knew about this, they would probably be surprised.

This was a treatment that they wouldn’t get to enjoy no matter how many times they begged. Now a kid like Lu Ming had seized the initiative! This was the best opportunity to gain the favor of the old leader. If they could build a relationship with him, their future would definitely be bright! They would also become the target of many people’s dreams!

However, Lu Ming still maintained his indifferent expression, as if he was visiting any good friend of his godfather’s.

The more the old leader looked at him, the more he liked him. The relationship between the two of them became closer. After dinner, he wished he could ask Lu Ming to stay overnight and ask him what he thought about joining the government. Unfortunately, Tang Mingkun stopped him in time.

“Old leader, you can’t favor one over the other. He’s only so young now. I don’t think I need to tell you that the wind will destroy the tallest tree in the forest, right? Besides, I don’t want to see him trapped in a place for the rest of his life. How boring would that be? I don’t care how much you like him, but before he’s fully mature, you can’t show your relationship to the outside world.”

The old leader understood why he said that. The reason was that he wanted to protect Lu Ming. No matter what, Lu Ming was a godson that his good friend valued. If something happened to him, he would feel uneasy. Thinking of this, he revealed an expression that was no different from his good friend and said with a smile, “Alright, alright, I understand. Do I look like such an impulsive person?”

He paused and seemed to have thought of something. Then he said, “Little Lu, I think you and I hit it off so well. Do you want to be my godson? I’m much better than this old fox. At least I can help you in more ways than him. With me around, no one will dare to touch you. How about it? Are you tempted?”

“My godfather is enough.”

Lu Ming said seriously. In other words, he would not acknowledge anyone else as his godfather and tactfully rejected the old leader’s invitation.

Tang Mingkun rolled his eyes at his good friend unhappily and said, “Don’t you have your own son? Why are you always staring at someone else’s son? Don’t tell me you think you’re a magpie who likes to snatch other birds’ nests? Are you envious of my son? He’s so outstanding. You’re trying to poach him.”

“Hahahaha! I was just joking. Why take it seriously?”

The old leader was not angry. He stroked his beard and smiled. He would not admit that he was jealous of his friend’s luck. However, he still felt a little regretful that he could not poach enough people. If Lu Ming could join the government, he would probably become a popular person in the future and lead China into a new era! However, the money he earned every year would not be as much as now.

“You can’t make jokes like that.”

Tang Mingkun reminded him, “This is not a small matter. What if people outside misunderstand?”

“Don’t worry. My people are very tight-lipped. They won’t talk nonsense.”

The old leader waved his hand and said without taking it to heart, “But I still hope that Little Lu can consider it carefully. It’s a good decision to bring glory to the country. As long as you say that you’re willing, I can arrange a good position for you. As for the rest, you’ll have to rely on yourself.”

Hearing this, Lu Ming nodded. It meant that he would consider it again, but no one knew what he was thinking.

This personality… was really hard to explain in a few words. In the beginning, when Lu Ming came over, he thought that the old leader would be a deep or very serious person. But now, this image was completely destroyed by him. The old leader was simply an old urchin! He was telling half truths and half lies. Lu Ming could not distinguish between what was real and what was fake at all.

Should I say that he’s indeed a superior person? He’s more scheming than ordinary people.
