As Aying drove, she frequently glanced at Shang Wu.

"Miss, I thought you sneaked out to follow Lu Lu. Where are we headed?"

Shang Wu rubbed her temples and closed her eyes: "Go to the Shang Group."

"Huh?" Aying couldn't help but glance at the scar on her face.

Shang Wu noticed her gaze and opened her eyes: "How is the Shang family business under my brother's management?"

Aying smiled somewhat sheepishly: "It's alright."

Shang Wu looked at her seriously: "To be honest, don't worry about him being my brother. From your professional perspective, how capable is my brother?"

"Then I'll really tell you the truth?" Aying probed.

Shang Wu nodded.

Aying took a deep breath and couldn't help but say, "Actually, it's really not that great. If it weren't for you getting Xiao Dong out of prison and helping him wholeheartedly, all the existing projects of these companies would have run into problems."

"Moreover, ever since your jewelry department closed, before you took over Chengzhou, projects and performance began to decline precipitously."

"President Shang, let alone maintaining the status quo, it will be difficult to even stop this downward trend."

Shang Wu fell silent for a moment.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Aying thought she was unhappy, so she quickly tried to smooth things over: "Actually, Mr. Shang's major wasn't financial management, so he can't manage such a large group. I understand..."

"Then let's remove him."

Shang Wu suddenly spoke.

Upon hearing this, Aying slowly opened her eyes wide, overjoyed: "You're coming back to take over the company? Really?! This is such a wonderful thing, you can't be lying to me!"

Shang Wu looked at her with a half-smile.

Aying coughed lightly, feeling a little embarrassed, thinking about how she had just reluctantly agreed with Shang Yunshen.

"I mean it, Ms. Shang, if you come back to manage the company, the shareholders, executives, and all the employees will be confident that the company will get better and better."

"And I don't understand why you insist on having General Manager Shang manage the company. Wouldn't it be better for him to be a vice president or something? Ultimately, a company can only go far if the capable are in charge."

Shang Wu looked out the window and remained silent for a long time.

She's the fool.

After being tricked into working for Zhou Yanci for three years, Cheng Zhou felt that it was all his fault.

I shouldn't have been kept in the dark for so long, causing my family to suffer.

She wanted to restore everything to its original state.

A warm family, supportive parents, a gentle and considerate older brother, and a thriving conglomerate.

But three years of dramatic changes are enough to alter many things.

It was enough to completely change even her once closest mother.

Shang Wu coldly said, "Give me advance notice. Once I arrive, the bodyguards must also be in place and obey my orders."

Aying nodded immediately, feeling that she was going to do something big, and a sense of anticipation began to rise in her heart.

A dozen minutes later, the two arrived at the company.

The bodyguards were already in position at the door.

As soon as Shang Wu walked over, a row of bodyguards in suits bowed in greeting.

"Let's go upstairs."

Shang Wu walked ahead without looking back.

Ah Ying and her bodyguard followed.

Top floor conference room.

Shang Yunshen was in a meeting with documents in hand.

The shareholders below looked dejected, their faces showing a hint of impatience.

You can't earn dividends, and you can't even get your shares back.

Everyone regrets joining the Shang Group.

They thought Shang Wu was leading them to better and better, but in the end, it turned out that Shang Yun Shen became the president.

What great things can a young nobleman who studies literature and language accomplish in a company?

Some people started to get impatient.

Just then, the office door was suddenly pushed open.

Shang Wu stood outside the door, a bright red bloodstain on her face.

It was hot, and the doctor didn't bandage her wound, leaving it lying across her fair and rosy face, looking quite shocking.

Everyone was stunned.

Shang Yun Shen was also taken aback: "A Wu, what happened to your face!"

Shang Wu raised his hand.

The bodyguards rushed over and surrounded everyone.

Shang Wu walked to the desk, glanced at everyone, and then looked away.

She asked calmly, "I'm planning to take back the Shang Group and become its president. The board of directors can vote on it now."

As soon as he finished speaking, the bodyguards were about to step forward to apply pressure when the conference room suddenly became agitated.

"Miss Shang, please come back soon! We couldn't be happier! Do you know how hard we've been these past few days!"

"The company isn't making money, and we're not getting dividends either. We can't take it anymore!"

"You don't need to hire bodyguards to pressure me. I wholeheartedly agree to let you come back!"

Everyone rushed to express their opinions, and no one had any objections. They were all like eager little birds waiting for Shang Wu to take over.

As for where Shang Wu went these past few days, what happened to her, and how she got that scar on her face, none of that matters.

Shang Wu glanced around, a slight smile playing on her lips, before finally looking at Shang Yun Shen.

As expected, Shang Yun Shen naturally had no objections and nodded with a smile to Shang Wu.

“I’ve also felt overwhelmed lately. It’s good that the company is in your hands; at least I can catch my breath.”

Shang Wu raised her hand: "You can leave now. My brother and I need to talk alone."

The others left in high spirits.

Ah Ying closed the door for them and stood guard outside with her bodyguards.

With no outsiders around, Shang Yun Shen stepped forward and cupped Shang Wu's face in his hands: "What happened to you? How did your wound get so deep?"

Shang Wu's eyes flickered, trying to avoid his touch.

Shang Yun Shen said in a low voice, "Don't move, let me see. How could you be so careless?"
