Chapter 52: The car accident ten years ago
Wu Chen cooperated with Lei Cheng’s “show off”, and was a little surprised when he saw the notes on the screen.
“Hey, godfather…” The phone was connected, Wu Chen vaguely heard the sweet voice. Lei Cheng took the phone back and put it next to his ear.
“Dabao, have you ever thought about me… um… hahahaha… um… ok, ok, stop complaining, you’ve only been popular for a few days, you can do whatever the director tells you to do. That’s my brother, that’s also for your own good…”
Wu Chen picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea, and silently listened to the conversation between Lei Cheng and Tao Manying. Although he didn’t know what Tao Manying said to Lei Cheng specifically, she must be pampering him.
If there were other people present, such as fans of Tao Manying.
If he was present and knew who this greasy, sloppy middle-aged fat man in front of Wu Chen was talking to and what he said, they might just break down and poke his own eyes!
It was possible for some extreme personalities to jump directly from the building, and the brainless fans could do anything!
Because, he’s too unworthy!
Tao Manying was a natural beauty who could reach 9 points according to Wu Chen’s strict standards. She had fair skin and beautiful long legs. She had a good image and good temperament.
She fit 99.9% of men’s fantasies about their dream lover!
But Tao Manying’s benefactor who had been with her for ten years, that was, Lei Cheng in front of Wu Chen, was so ordinary, greasy and wretched.
The appearance of was not a problem, Lei Cheng’s facial features were okay. Although he was fat, but that’s not a problem, mainly because of his appearance and temperament!
Really one heaven and one underground!
Standing together, the two of them couldn’t be described as a beauty matched with a beast, but more like a beautiful woman matched with a pile of stinky shit!
Really, that was not an exaggeration at all!
Lei Cheng gave people the impression at first glance that he was not even as good as a slightly normal ordinary person.
However!
Feelings were feelings!
Feelings could be actively created!
Wu Chen knew that Lei Cheng did this on purpose!
Even if money was not considered, Wu Chen still thought that it’s not that Lei Cheng was not good enough for Tao Manying, but that Tao Manying was not good enough for Lei Cheng!
If Lei Cheng hadn’t been there, Tao Manying might have disappeared from the crowd long ago, and she might have become the taboo of a big boss by relying on her appearance. It would be impossible to show her face, and it would be even more impossible to become popular!
Wu Chen had seen photos of Lei Cheng ten years ago, and he had seen them many times in the millennium reincarnation. He knew that Lei Cheng ten years ago was tall and thin. He was thirty-two years old, with a dignified appearance! Extraordinary bearing!
It was the car accident that nearly killed him ten years ago that changed him!
Or… he took the initiative to put on a protective disguise for himself. He started to overeat, started to keep women, started to spend money, spent money to become a celebrity, and became rude!
All he did was a disguise, to save himself from being killed!
His past ten years could be summed up in one word: forbearance!
He had been enduring, waiting for a chance to give the opponent a fatal blow and make a comeback!
Although he knew that he might not be able to wait in this lifetime.
And the person who wanted to kill him was none other than his own brother, Lei Zhenghui’s eldest son: Lei You!
Lei Cheng was the loser in the cruel internal struggle of the big family!
The car accident ten years ago was arranged by Lei You. Three people in the car died and one was seriously injured. Lei Cheng was the only one who survived, and among the dead was his original wife who he had been married to for two years.
Lei Cheng never defeated his brother, not because he was not capable. In Wu Chen’s view, both of them were excellent, at least they were evenly matched.
And the reason why Lei Cheng couldn’t beat his brother was because… Lei You was eight years older than him!
It was the 1970s, and people generally got married early. Lei Zhenghui got married at the age of eighteen, and had his first child at the age of nineteen, which was Lei You!
And when the second child Lei Cheng was born, Lei Zhenghui was already 27 years old.
Lei Cheng’s birth was an accident at the time.
When Lei Cheng was still in the sixth grade of elementary school, Lei You had already graduated from university and started working in Hongfa Industrial.
When Lei Cheng graduated from university, Lei You was already Lei Zhenghui’s right-hand man and one of the cores of Hongfa Industrial.
The age gap made the two brothers not close at all!
Even, Lei You has always resented Lei Cheng, his younger brother of the same father and mother!
This kind of resentment could be traced back to the day when Lei Cheng was just born… On that day, Lei Cheng’s mother died in the operating room of the county hospital due to postpartum hemorrhage.
She was not rescued.
Of course, the past was not the real reason why the two brothers turned against each other thirty years later. Lei Cheng’s car accident ten years ago, in the final analysis, was because Lei Cheng had already established his prestige in the family business step by step. He was valued by Lei Zhenghui!
Lei Zhenghui even said publicly at the shareholder meeting that after he retires, the company would be handed over to his two sons to jointly manage the company!
Lei Cheng’s rapid rise within Hongfa directly threatened Lei You’s status!
So to put it bluntly, the reason why the two turned against each other was because of the inheritance of family property in the future.
After the car accident, Hongfa Industrial experienced a series of turmoil and personnel adjustments! Some people even disappeared directly.
After Lei Cheng was discharged from the hospital, he broke into Lei You’s villa with a gun, and almost killed Lei You, but was stopped.
And in the fourth month after the car accident, Hong Fa was calm inside, and Lei You was fine!
There was not enough evidence to prove that the mastermind behind the car accident was Lei You, it’s just rumored so.
But there were some things that didn’t need evidence at all, everyone knew it well!
After all, Lei Zhenghui still turned to the eldest son.
In fact, he was not partial to that extent. He was considering the family business. At that time, Lei You was 40 years old and served as the deputy general manager of Hongfa, while Lei Cheng was 32 years old, which was his tenth year in Hongfa.
Lei Zhenghui, who was the general manager of Hongfa at the time, was 59 years old.
He didn’t know that he would still be able to do it himself for a few more years. After all, he was going to hand over the position of general manager to his son.
Eldest son? Youngest son?
He could only choose one, give up the other! It was impossible for the two brothers to join hands again!
In the end, he chose the elder son who was more mature, older, more connected and more courageous!
This was the whole reason why Lei Cheng became what he was now.
Dormant!
Tolerable!
Waiting for the opportunity!
In fact, Wu Chen didn’t pay much attention to Lei Cheng in the Millennium Reincarnation. He was an outsider in Donghai, and he was always low-key and cared about his privacy.
But as Wu Chen investigated more and more billionaires in the East China Sea, he gradually discovered that it seemed that many of them… had private contacts with Lei Cheng.
In private!
There was no communication on the surface, and they would not appear in any public social occasions together, but in private, they met a lot.
But there was no business relationship.
Very weird!
Wu Chen felt that something was wrong, so he investigated Lei Cheng thoroughly, and then he knew Lei Cheng’s experience. During the investigation, he even went to Huaixi City, and during the consecutive “July 7th” followed Lei You, finally kidnapped him, and asked for details.
Huaixi was not far from the East China Sea, more than 400 kilometers away, and could be reached in just over two hours by high-speed train.
Wu Chen found out everything!
“Hahahaha…” He didn’t know what Tao Manying said again, Lei Cheng laughed a few more times, and then said, “Okay, okay, Dabao, it’s like this… There’s something, please take a leave of absence. Go back to Donghai as soon as possible, and I will put a word with the director…
“Yes, it’s very urgent, I got you an endorsement, cosmetics.
“We’re not afraid of breaking the contract, I’ll just pay them a loss!
“Well, okay, come on kiss me!… so good! Hang up!”
Lei Cheng hung up the phone, looked up at Wu Chen and said with a smile, “She booked the earliest ticket to fly domestically. It will take more than four hours… There is no direct flight to the East China Sea, she has to go to the capital for a connecting flight… It is probably eleven or twelve in the middle of the night! How about it? Brother, I was not bragging to you, was I? Hahahahaha…”
After Lei Cheng finished speaking, he laughed again.
Nailed it!
“Awesome!” Wu Chen smiled, looking at Lei Cheng with another flash of eyes.
Since Lei Cheng is so “sincere”, he could tell him something about Lei You!
