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

Chapter 350: The Past

Lei Jiacheng was also stunned the moment he saw Lu Yaohua! Who could tell him that his brother, who used to live like a prince and exuded a noble aura, had vanished? This… He almost couldn’t recognize the other party’s identity! Although he had changed into an expensive suit, he couldn’t hide his sordid appearance and the exhaustion emanating from his bones.

Fortunately, he quickly reacted and said with a smile, “Is there a need to be so polite between us? If you’re having a hard time, you don’t have to throw your money on this wine. Just tell me you’re coming over. Look! We haven’t seen each other for a long time, and you’ve become so distant!”

Even as he was saying that, he held the red wine and looked at it. After confirming that it was the real thing, his mood improved a lot. He thought that with Lu Yaohua’s situation, it was already very difficult for him to buy a bottle of pirated wine. He did not expect it to be genuine!

“Tell you what! Let’s drink and talk!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he took out two red wine glasses and a bottle opener. As he poured the wine, he said, “This reminds me of our past. At that time, we would go to the leisure center every day after work to take a bath and chat. However, ever since we got married, we spent less time together because we each had to take care of our families, especially since you had a son.”

They had known each other a long time.

Not long after Lu Yaohua was promoted to a managerial position, he went to Xingwei Medical Group to discuss a collaboration and got to know Lei Jiacheng by chance. For some reason, they hit it off very well, so they became familiar with each other as they chatted. At that time, Lu Yaohua, who did not know much, was brought to the leisure center by Lei Jiacheng for the first time in his life.

At first, it was just drinking. Unexpectedly, Lei Jiacheng called over a few beautiful ladies in the second half of the evening. He winked and said, “Have you had fun before? They are quite good and very skilled. I guarantee that you’ll be in heaven! Do you want to try?”

Lu Yaohua quickly refused. “I already have a family. My wife and kid are waiting for me at home. If I’m discovered…”

“Don’t worry, they won’t find out! As long as you don’t say it, how can they know? As the saying goes, house flowers don’t smell as fragrant as wild flowers. If you try it the first time, you will definitely want to try a second time. Moreover, your entire family relies on you to earn money. If they have any complaints, at most, you can get a divorce! With your conditions, it’s not impossible to find a better wife.

We’re men. Are we still human if we’re not lustful?”

Lei Jiacheng’s every word made sense. He even mentioned his own example and said, “Look at me. I have a wife at home, but she knows that I have someone outside. Well, I earn so much money, so she can only listen to me obediently. When I get home, she has to fuss over me! Sometimes, there’s actually no need to listen to your wife. Don’t tell me you’re a mule?”

How could Lu Yaohua stand being called a mule?

He had fallen into a trap with these provocative words!

“Alright! Then I’ll listen to Big Brother!”

This also led to him not returning home every night. When Zhang Wenfang called to ask about the situation, Lei Jiacheng immediately pretended to be working and covered up for Lu Yaohua. The two of them could be said to be getting closer and closer, and they were getting more and more similar. Lei Jiacheng was full of tricks, and Lu Yaohua was on a path of no return.

However, no matter how bad it was, Lu Yaohua never thought of getting a divorce. It was only when Tang Wenyi appeared that Lei Jiacheng’s thoughts became active. He wanted to ride on the Tang family’s coattails, but he knew that they looked down on him, so he had to let Lu Yaohua try. He did not expect that there was really a chance!

Hence, he started to ask his good friend to get a divorce. He wanted Lu Yaohua to marry Tang Wenyi, who had a better family background and was more attractive. No matter what, she was someone who had seen the world. Other than his outstanding looks, Lu Yaohua did not have any other advantages. Hence, she kept rejecting him.

Lu Yaohua had wanted to give up. He felt that it was good to protect his current family and questioned if it was really worth it spending so much effort on Tang Wenyi for nothing in the end? Hence, when Lei Jiacheng saw that his scheme was about to fall through, he began to keep painting a big pie for Lu Yaohua so that he could imagine how good the future would be!

Every time he saw his good friend’s depressed look, he wished he could personally pursue Tang Wenyi. But he was inferior to Lu Yaohua in terms of appearance and age. The Tang family would want to send someone to assassinate him overnight if he dared to have any designs on the third daughter of the Tang family!

Ordinary men could not resist the temptation of promotion and wealth.

As expected, Lu Yaohua’s circumstances gradually became favorable and he completely stole Tang Wenyi’s heart. Later on, he got a divorce in order to marry Tang Wenyi. In the end, he successfully got close to the Tang family! It could be said to be a win-win situation!

He had not expected things to develop this way.

Lei Jiacheng took a sip of red wine. The mellow taste instantly made him unable to stop. He could not help but take a few more sips. Lu Yaohua was indeed someone who had interacted with him for many years. He knew his weakness! Unknowingly, Lei Jiacheng’s attitude softened a lot.

When Lu Yaohua heard the word ‘son’, it was as if he had been poked in the nerves. He said resentfully, “Big Brother Lei, stop teasing me. How can you not know the situation of my two sons? My youngest son is a hedonistic son who only knows how to eat, drink, and play! A while ago, incriminating evidence against him was found and he was convicted of various offenses. He will spend the rest of his life in prison!”

He paused for a moment and continued, “My eldest son is smart, but because of what happened in the past, he can’t wait for me to die. He contributed greatly to my current state! In that case, be it my taste in wives or the upbringing of my sons, I can’t compare to you, Brother Lei.”

“Look, I had a good hand at the beginning, but in the end, I didn’t play it well! Brother Lei, your conditions were bad in the beginning. You started from scratch and encountered countless troubles on the way. You almost suffered a destructive blow several times. You survived time and time again. You’re really my role model!”

Those who didn’t know would probably think that it was really difficult for Lei Jiacheng to start a business. In fact, he and Xu Xiaojing came from good middle-class families. They had spent a lot of money establishing their company in the beginning. Later on, their development was mediocre. They wanted to find a breakthrough but it eluded them. It was only when they got involved with the Tang family that they started to prosper!

However, these flattering words were quite effective. Lei Jiacheng was obviously feeling a little smug. He said in a good mood, “Aiya! I don’t know what’s going on, but I feel especially comfortable every time I’m with you! I was originally a little depressed because of the company’s recent matters, but I’m feeling better now!”
