Ye Zhiwei made an excuse to take a shower, and the first thing she did when she got back to her room was to call Ji Shuli.

Ji Shuli was dealing with the loopholes in the company's finances. In addition to checking the ledgers with the finance department, he planned to check them himself. At this time, his younger cousin called him.

Ji Shuli: Ha, this little girl is probably overjoyed and excitedly planning to call him.

"Little cousin, are you calling to thank your older cousin?" His tone was smug, like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.

Ye Zhiwei could already imagine the smug look on this young master Ji's face.

Ye Zhiwei: ? ? ?

She was furious, furious, furious!

Why is my cousin still so smug?

"Where did you get the idea that I'm grateful to you?! I'm so angry with you! Cousin, do you have a problem with me? Do you have a problem with me? Are you planning to get revenge on me because I forgot your birthday last year? But I already bought you a car!" Ye Zhiwei was furious.

Ji Shuli replied, bewildered, "Oh, where did you get such a temper? You little girl, do you think I'm such a petty person? Of course not, even though you paid for the car I bought with my card and you were very unwilling."

Ye Zhiwei snorted coldly.

"I forget my own birthday quickly, but I remember a certain person's birthday very clearly and even prepares for it well in advance," Ji Shuli said sourly.

Ye Zhiwei: ...Why is it that even though she came to settle scores with Ji Shuli, she seems like a heartless woman when Ji Shuli questions her?

Ye Zhiwei took a deep breath. "Cousin, you are different from Jiang Jianian."

Ji Shuli: Ha, as expected, my little cousin is already siding with outsiders even before she's married.

Ye Zhiwei had a headache. "Anyway, it's different. This is a long and complicated story, you wouldn't understand. Anyway, you've really made me angry this time. You actually let me stay here—you actually let me—"

Ye Zhiwei couldn't continue. She took a deep breath and said vehemently, "Cousin, let me tell you, even the little surprise you prepared for me can't make up for my heartbreak!"

Ji Shuli was shocked that her little cousin was still not satisfied.

So what if she just chose the room furthest from Jiang Jianian?

My little cousin had to choose a room right next to Jiang Jianian's?

He had already arranged for them to stay together temporarily, so how did such a big surprise turn into a small one?

Indeed, a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea, extremely complex.

Young Master Ji already felt that even these complicated ledgers were not as easy to understand as his little cousin's thoughts.

Ye Zhiwei took a deep breath and continued to berate, "Weren't you already here at Yanda University? Why did you suddenly go back!"

She should have condemned him to his face!

Ji Shuli smiled and said, "It seems the company's books don't match up. There's been a small problem. I came over to check it out. I suspect that some manager in the company has misappropriated funds. We need to investigate."

Ye Zhiwei was taken aback. She was originally about to confront him, but when she heard that Ji Shuli was doing serious work, her tone softened. "How long will this investigation take? You're not going to have to work overtime all night again, are you?"

Ji Shuli narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "Before we can confirm who that executive is, anyone could do this. There is no one we can trust."

He has already contacted the bank and sent over all the company's bank transfer records.

The workload is enormous. He has already had a large number of people screened out, and he is personally verifying the remaining senior management.

Except in front of Ye Zhiwei, Ji Shuli was always cautious and careful. Although the young master Ji looked gentle and approachable, he would never be lenient if someone made a mistake in front of him. He had the same decisive and ruthless spirit as the old master Ji. He gave all his patience and tolerance to his little cousin Ye Zhiwei.

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhiwei remained silent for a moment before saying, "Then cousin, you go ahead and do your work. Don't overwork yourself."

"I'll come to your school to see you when my cousin has time," Ji Shuli said with a smile.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Zhiwei remembered the original plot. This time, the company's loophole was just a minor issue. Ji Shuli quickly found out that several senior executives of the company had colluded with outsiders and embezzled funds. Ji Shuli then charged them with embezzlement.

This hurdle will soon be overcome.

The real hurdle for the Ji family's parent company was the leak of a new product they were developing, which was then preemptively patented. Although this was clearly unfair business competition, and the other party even faced criminal charges, the fact that it was originally the Ji family's trade secret was made public by another company applying for a patent led to a surge in counterfeit products. The Ji family's rights protection period was long, the stock price plummeted, and the cash flow was short-term disrupted.

This was originally a situation that could be resolved, but the cash flow suddenly broke down and there was a shortage of funds. However, the Ji family was targeted by Jiang Jianian, who already had enough capital at the time and took advantage of the Ji family's only loophole.

Jiang Jianian accomplished what others could not, a feat that caused panic among other groups in the novel, as he was able to bring down even the deeply entrenched Ji family, who had long dominated the market.

Thinking about this, Ye Zhiwei took a deep breath and sent a text message to Ji Shuli: You should just get along well with Jiang Jianian, cousin!

This is a heartfelt and warm reminder from Ye Zhiwei.

Ji Shuli received a text message: ...

Why did he receive different treatment from his younger cousin even though he was working overtime?

Devastated by the blow, Young Master Ji was in a very bad mood and decided to work overtime to find out who the bad apples in the company were. He didn't care about saving face and would just call the police.

Half an hour later.

Secretary Zhang told Ji Shuli that the company's front desk had received a call from a deliveryman who said he had some snacks for Ji Shuli, with a note that read: "A warm gift from Ye Zhiwei."

The receptionist was afraid that one of Ji Shuli's suitors knew that Ji Shuli was at the company and sent the item over, so she was extra careful.

Upon hearing this, Ji Shuli immediately knew what was going on and ordered his men to bring it up.

A small cake and coffee.

Ji Shuli's mood had completely improved at this moment.

Thinking of Jiang Jianian's text message, he sneered, set up the table, and frantically took nine photos before posting the status update.

After blocking Ye Zhiwei from seeing this post, he also reminded Jiang Jianian to watch it.

How could he possibly get along well with this scoundrel who's about to steal his little cousin away!

Not only that, Ji Shuli felt it wasn't enough after the reminder, so she opened her chat with Jiang Jianian and sent a few pictures with a smile.

Ji Shuli: What's wrong? How are things going with your little cousin? Oh, by the way, I just wanted to tell you that this is coffee and a small cake that my little cousin ordered for me. I guess she knows I'm working overtime and feels sorry for me. You didn't get any, did you?

Jiang Jianian: ...

Ji Shuli: [Cute][Cute] After all, my little cousin and I grew up together. To her, you are just an outsider, so it's normal that you don't get much attention.

There's been no word from Jiang Jianian this time.

Ji Shuli then sent another photo of a fork taking a bite out of the cake.

Unexpectedly, an exclamation mark appeared directly.
