Lu Tao asked a question casually, but Lu Meng was stunned on the spot. After a long time, he said: "Dad's image in my eyes has always been very majestic. I have never thought about what he was like when he was young. In other words, in my impression, he has been so cunning and cunning since the day he was born."

"Hahaha, what you want to say is cunning!" Lu Tao laughed and scolded, and continued: "I believe that when my father was young, he must have been as naughty as us. After all, this is a hereditary gene, but look again There is no trace of a young man in Dad's current appearance. Sometimes, I even suspect that Dad is rational and has no emotions.

You said, we can remember things from childhood so clearly, will dad forget it? I don’t think so, but he has buried some things in his heart. I believe that in a corner where no one is around, he will recall these things. Things will definitely laugh as unprepared as you and me.

But in front of outsiders, including you and me, my father rarely smiles. From the perspective of his son, I think he is very tired. Of course, you may not agree with what I say, but he does put all his energy into it. The family, and you and I are also part of the family, so I think we should..."

"Second brother." The smile on Lu Meng's face solidified, interrupting Lu Tao: "So after you have told me so much, you still want to persuade me and let me consider the problem from my father's perspective, right? ?”

"Of course not. I know you must not have had a good rest, and you may be as tired as I am now, so I really don't want to bring up a topic that makes us both unhappy in this situation."

Lu Tao lit a cigarette on the other end of the phone and said softly: "Lu Meng, have you ever thought about becoming the head of our family?"

"No." Lu Meng responded almost without thinking: "I don't want to live as tired as Dad."

"Look, you also know that Dad is very tired, right?" Lu Tao smiled and continued: "To be honest, I don't want to, because the person sitting in this position is not living for himself at all. Yes, he devoted his whole life's energy and efforts to making the family members live a better life. In this case, why don't I be the person below who is protected and can live for myself?

You know, my biggest dream is to be a painter, a poet, a literary man, or even a fisherman, but it will not be a general, let alone a family head.

However, whether you want to hear it or not, like it or not, in fact, I am already the next head of our family. Dad has invested so much resources and efforts in me to train me as his successor.

I have thought about it more than once, should I disobey my father, or should I give up my promise and live my own life after a hundred years, but I can't do this. In this case, I will deny my father's life. His value was not worthy of his upbringing, and he also failed to live up to his expectations.

So, it seems to you that I am glorious, but in fact, I am just living for the word 'filial piety'. I live like my father and become a puppet carved by him."

Lu Meng was a little disgusted with this heavy topic: "Second brother, what exactly do you want to say?"

"Neither you nor I have ever met our grandfather, but do you think he, like his father, molded his father from a young man full of dreams into what he is today? After all, by his father's side,

All I saw were compliments and adoration, but not an equal brother or friend."

After Lu Tao said this, the other end of the phone was silent for about ten seconds, and whispered softly: "Xiaosi, help me."

"Second brother?!"

Lu Meng was stunned by the three words spoken by Lu Tao, his eyes filled with fear and disbelief: "What do you mean by this? What do you mean by saving you?"

"Family is like a web. When I get stuck on this web, I can no longer get rid of it, or in other words, I am no longer myself."

Lu Tao's voice suddenly became a little deeper: "The second brother you know, Lu Tao, died on the day he became the God of War! No, maybe I will die earlier, maybe when I step into the Qiongling battlefield

From that moment on! Only from that day forward, I am the real me!

Xiao Si, you know, I am actually not a person who is greedy for power, but my destiny is pushing me forward. I am destined to be unable to break out of this quagmire, but I am really scared now, I am afraid that I will

Becoming a puppet of the family and power, becoming a cold person like a father."

Lu Meng heard the despair in Lu Tao's voice, and his heart felt like it was stinging: "Second brother, do you think I can really help you with this kind of thing?"

"Xiaosi, I hope you can agree to dad's plan and go to the Northern Military Region with me." Lu Tao took a deep breath: "I really can't live without someone of my own. If I plunge into this cold circle alone,

I really don't know what I will become, but you are my family, I can trust you to give my back.

All along, in the world of chaebols, if you want to be in power, you have to be decisive and leave no room for mercy. But I want to try and be a different person. I want to try to be a politician with emotions.

, I even hope that one day when I go to a high place and everyone looks at me with that kind of fearful eyes, you can still stand beside me and laugh loudly with me."

After listening to Lu Tao's words, Lu Meng lowered his head and fell silent.

Before Lu Tao's call, Lu Meng was already in a desperate situation, but he didn't expect that his seemingly high-spirited second brother would also be facing the same situation as himself.

Seeing Lu Meng's silence, Lu Tao asked, "Xiaosi, are you still listening?"

"Second brother, I agree." Lu Meng exhaled a breath: "After struggling outside for so long, I found that the world is not what I thought it was at all. I have always thought highly of myself. Maybe I

What you insist on is wrong from beginning to end. I agree with dad's plan and go to the Northern Military Region with you. From now on, I will be your shadow."

"Remember, I will give you whatever others can't give you. Also, you are not my shadow, you are my brother!"

Lu Tao said seriously and continued: "From today on, the Northern Military Region will be our new starting point. If we cannot adapt to the rules of this world, then I will take you with me and we will be the ones to change the rules."
