Didn't you say Zhou Yanci went to the hospital? Where is she?

Shang Wu replied: 【What's the rush? I'll be downstairs soon.】

Half a minute later, Zhou Yanci appeared at the hospital entrance.

A group of reporters rushed forward instantly, surrounding him completely.

Zhou Yanci was somewhat bewildered.

He came in a hurry, and the only person he brought with him, Xiao Dong, was out running errands.

The group of reporters surrounded him, and he didn't even have a chance to escape.

A bunch of microphones were shoved at us, and flashes and the sound of doors clicking incessantly.

"Mr. Zhou, I heard that your fiancée was deliberately disfigured. Is that true?"

"The one who did this was Li Chengzhang, the one your fiancée's brother accidentally injured. How do you plan to avenge Miss Shang?"

"I heard that Mr. Zhou recently invested in Li Chengzhang's project. Does Ms. Shang have any objections to this? Will you consider withdrawing your investment?"

Zhou Yanci frowned deeply and pressed his thin lips together.

He never expected that this group of people were so well-informed, seemingly knowing the news even before he did.

Zhou Yanci didn't think much of it, knowing that Shang Wu must have made a big commotion when she was taken to the hospital.

However, he originally only wanted Xiao Dong to beat up Li Chengzhang as a warning, since this person had once joined forces with him to set up a scheme, and it was not advisable to make things too tense, lest the other party turn against him.

We can't afford to make a lot of noise but deliver little result now.

Zhou Yanci felt like she was being forced into this situation.

He clenched his fist and said coldly, "I am also sorry that this person lost his ability to have children because of A-Wu's brother, but I did not expect him to continue to harbor this hatred and even use it to hurt A-Wu. I will never allow my woman to be treated like this."

Zhou Yanci's words were domineering, yet they carried a tenderness and care for his woman.

He scanned the crowd, then addressed the camera, saying each word clearly: "From now on, Chengzhou will never cooperate or associate with Li Chengzhang again. I will also report what he did to Awu to the police and will not tolerate it!"

The reporters applauded and kept pestering Zhou Yanci to ask about Shang Wu's recent situation, but were quickly dismissed.

Ten minutes later, a video of Zhou Yanci being interviewed appeared online.

Withdrawal of investment, refusal to cooperate, and reporting to the police and filing a lawsuit.

In order to establish her public image, Zhou Yanci had to adopt the stance of seeking justice for her.

Shang Wu's gaze was icy as she swiped the screen to read the comments under the interview.

Some people say that Zhou Yanci is domineering and protective of his wife, making him a rare and good man.

Some people say that Shang Wu is lucky to have such a good man who is willing to fight the whole world for her. They wonder what kind of good fortune she has accumulated over many lifetimes.

Good fortune?

Shang Wu gave a mocking smile, casually tossed her phone aside, and rubbed her temples.

Now Li Chengzhang has done nothing, yet the investment is gone, the project has failed, his reputation is ruined, and he faces a lawsuit.

It can be said that they fell into the abyss overnight.

It was good, but not good enough.

This was just a nobody who was used by Zhou Yanci back then.

The two truly key figures, Zhou Yanci and Ji Yu, are not yet ready to be touched.

Shang Wu couldn't wait any longer.

Thinking of her brother's wasted youth in prison, her parents' haggard appearance with their hair turned white overnight, and the destruction of the family business, her heart ached and trembled.

"You're really ruthless to yourself."

A sudden sound from outside the door interrupted Shang Wu's thoughts.

She suddenly opened her eyes, the hatred still lingering in them.

Only after he could clearly see the person in front of him did he slowly exhale.

Why did you come here?

Lu Rang entered the ward and saw the wound on her cheek. His gaze darkened before he said, "Retrieve Mrs. Li Chengzhang's file."

Shang Wu nodded: "Not only are Li Chengzhang's medical records showing that he has been infertile for a long time, but now that Li Chengzhang's project has failed and he is being sued, his wife must be very anxious to find someone to fight the lawsuit."

She paused for a moment, looked up, and gave Lu Rang a slight smile.

"Attorney Lu, could you do me another favor and take on Mrs. Li's case?"

Lu Rang looked at her and suddenly chuckled: "You're really worried about the tenfold reward you gave me? You wish you could use me as if I were ten people."

No way.

Shang Wu looked up, blinked innocently, and the tense posture that had been simmering in hatred disappeared. "Madam Li will give you a very high service fee. Why not make this money? I'm helping you increase your income, okay?"

Lu Rang neither agreed nor disagreed, but stepped forward and leaned closer to her.

Shang Wu was taken aback, seeing herself reflected in his eyes: "Lawyer Lu?"

Lu Rang kept getting closer without saying a word.

For some reason, Shang Wu thought of the time she almost kissed Lu Rang when she was drunk.

When she asked Lu Rang if she would allow a kiss, he didn't seem to refuse...

Shang Wu's cheeks flushed slightly, and she unconsciously wanted to back away.

"Don't move."

Lu Rang gripped her shoulder and reached out with his other hand towards her.
