Lu Yiwei sometimes asked himself if it was worth it to waste five years of his life for a verbal promise and his untouchable dignity. If he had given up on all these earlier, his career and business career would have improved. But now, he was in his thirties, and his wife and daughter had left him. His father was bedridden because of him, and his sister could not hold her head up high in the county and had to go to the south to work. It could be said that his family was in ruins because of his failures. Every time he thought of this, Lu Yiwei would hide in his bed and cry.
A man's dignity was the most fragile thing that could not be destroyed. Dignity was also the most fragile thing!
Lu Yiwei smiled and said, "Everyone chooses a different way of life. Don't try to persuade me. I know you are worried about me. Brother, thank you!" After that, he swam over and clinked glasses with Niu Fuyong, then drank it in one gulp.
Lu Yiwei brought up the past again and said worriedly. "Fuyong, listen to me. You are not old anymore. You are only a few months younger than me. Stop."
Niu Fuyong knew what Lu Yiwei was referring to. He gritted his teeth and rubbed the sweat on his body. He sighed and said, "Do you think I don't want to stop? The money I am earning now is enough for me to live for the rest of my life. But I am in a dilemma. Do you know how much money the county and city leaders take from me every year? I really can't afford to offend them. If I really quit, I'm afraid they'll send me to the detention center immediately. Sigh! I have no choice. "
Niu Fuyong's business was huge. He had more than ten mines in Beihe Town. The reason why he could plunder so brazenly was because of the privilege that people from all walks of life had given him after receiving the benefits. The County's law enforcement department could only close one eye and pretend they did not see it. However, Niu Fuyong's development had deviated from the norm. He was gradually becoming a triad. If they really offended that leader one day, it would be a disaster. This was exactly what Lu Yiwei was worried about.
Lu Yiwei knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he said, "Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your family."
At the mention of his family, a trace of worry appeared on Niu Fuyong's ferocious face. He shook his head and said, "I've already thought about my family. I've bought properties in Jiangdong, Beijing, and Shanghai, and I've also deposited 3 million yuan in a Swiss bank under my wife's name. Once I fall in the future, it doesn't matter if she remarries or lives alone. She just needs to raise my two children. Sigh! My poor old mother. "
It turned out that Niu Fuyong had already made up his mind. Although he was rough, he was still a man. Lu Yiwei was deeply moved, "Brother, you are a real man, I admire you. You're getting off topic. Why are you saying such depressing words? You have to listen to me. It's not too late to stop now. "
Niu Fuyong did not reply to Lu Yiwei. He stared at Lu Yiwei and said, "Can I ask you for a favor?"
"What is it?" Lu Yiwei was puzzled.
"If that day really comes, can I entrust my mother, wife, and children to you?" Niu Fuyong used a pleading tone to ask Lu Yiwei.
Lu Yiwei bit his lips and turned his head to the side. His expression was solemn. After a long time, he nodded heavily.
Niu Fuyong patted Lu Yiwei's shoulder happily. "I knew you will help me. This is my brother. I did not misjudge you. Come, let's drink!"
Niu Fuyong gulped down the wine and wiped his mouth. "Don't worry. I will not ask you to help me for free." After that, he smiled mysteriously and walked to the massage room.
