As Shang Wu watched Chen Mian rush over, she threw the photo in her hand away first.

As he slept, a corner of the photo scratched the back of his hand, and he retreated hastily.

She lowered her head, her breathing becoming heavier.

The ground was covered with photos of her and Zhou Yanci's private rendezvous, taken from a third-person perspective.

Shang Wu walked up the steps and said lazily, "If you send these things to Zhou Yanci, do you think he'll think you're desperate for a title and that you're just putting on this show because you can't wait?"

"No, I didn't! You took all these pictures!" Chenmian took two steps back, as if she had seen a ghost.

Shang Wu took another step and arrived at the door of Chen Mian's house.

“But Zhou Yanci doesn’t believe it. After last night, his trust in you has collapsed. If anything happens now, do you think he will believe you?”

Chenmian swallowed hard, her lips trembling.

Suddenly, Shang Wu reached out, grabbed her hair, and yanked it hard.

Chenmian screamed as she was pulled in front of her, forced to tilt her head to look up and meet Shang Wu's sharp, mocking eyes.

"And what will Zhou Yanci think when she sees those provocative text messages and photos you sent me? I've kept them all safe."

Shang Wu's tone was light and casual, but a cold and resolute look suddenly appeared in her eyes, "If you want to play, I'll play with you. But Chen Mian, you've already betrayed Zhou Yanci once. You can't afford to lose. If you don't stay obediently by his side, you'll only be eliminated."

Chenmian was terrified; sweat beaded on her forehead, and despite the excruciating pain in her scalp, she dared not cry out.

She trembled: "You, you know he cheated on me, the person he loves is me, why are you still by his side!"

Shang Wu laughed: "Then you should ask Zhou Yanci why she won't give you a formal title and why she insists on keeping me by her side."

Chenmian opened her mouth, but didn't reply.

She knew that Zhou Yanci was trying to keep Shang Wu from making money at the branch.

However, it was originally agreed that after the limited-edition new product was released, they would leave Shangwu behind.

If this drags on, when will it end?

Shang Wu released her slumber, took out a wet wipe to clean her hands, and threw it into the trash can.

"This is just a warning. Don't overestimate yourself and try to film me again."

She turned and left.

Chenmian slumped to the ground, grabbed her phone, and trembled as she tried to call Zhou Yanci.

"Hello, the number you dialed is busy..."

Zhou Yanci blocked her.

Chenmian bit her lip: "Shangwu, Shangwu!"

She kept repeating Shang Wu's name, her eyes filled with ruthless intent, wishing she could skin this woman alive.

Just because she can't be followed and filmed doesn't mean she has no other way to snatch Zhou Yanci away!

...

Chengzhou Group.

Zhou Yanci glanced at the names on the list and smiled casually.

“Ah Wu, how come all the employees you’re sending across by boat are from the Shang family back then?”

Shang Wu lifted her eyelids to look at him, her face showing confusion: "I brought them over because they used to work at my parents' company. I know them well and they're easy to manage."

Zhou Yanci pinched her brow, helplessly saying, "But they have no experience in jewelry design. They are all talents in the field of new energy. If you send them to a branch, they will not be able to make use of their strengths."

Fearing that Shang Wu might be unwilling, he emphasized: "Moreover, they are also working on the projects I invested in."

Shang Wu pursed her lips slightly, stepped forward, and gently pressed Zhou Yanci's hand.

She suddenly leaned closer, and her magnified face made Zhou Yanci slightly dazed.

Just as he was about to speak, Shang Wu solemnly said, "In three days, I will bring the branch's reputation to its peak and get 50,000 jewelry reservations. Is this enough for me to take these people away? Is this enough to make up for the losses of your project?"

Zhou paused, speechless.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Shang Wu curled her lips: "Yan Ci, when have I ever made empty promises to you? I worked so hard to maintain this branch, I would never ruin it myself."

Zhou Yanci finally couldn't resist and relented: "If you do what you say, I'll give you the person. That way, we'll have something to say to the shareholders. Once you've really got the branch up and running, I'll throw you a celebration banquet."

Shang Wu smiled and said, "Okay."

She picked up the list and was about to leave.

"Awu, wait a moment."

Zhou Yanci's eyes flickered slightly as she stood up: "Do you still love me?"

An impatience flashed in Shang Wu's eyes, and she turned around with a surprised look on her face: "Why would you ask that?"

“You weren’t like this before. Lately, you come to the company, say what you need to do, and leave without talking to me. I support what you want to do, but you don’t hug me and say thank you anymore.”

Zhou Yanci's eyes darkened, and a sense of gloom inexplicably settled over her.

He felt that Shang Wu had changed.

There are many more of these details; he can't quite put his finger on them, but he can sense them.

Shang Wu sighed softly and asked helplessly, "Yan Ci, do you know how much pressure I'm under, carrying the expectations of all the shareholders and you? I'm busy with the branch's affairs all day long, trying to prove myself and make money for you. If I didn't love you, why would I work so hard for you?"

Zhou Yanci paused for a moment, then realized she had overthought things, and smiled as she gently stroked the tip of her nose with her finger.

"I've been a bit sensitive lately, don't blame me, Ah Wu."

Shang Wu lowered her eyes and clutched the list document tightly in her hands: "Then I'll be going now."

"etc."

Zhou Yanci raised an eyebrow and looked at her affectionately: "I love you."

A hint of mockery flashed in Shang Wu's eyes, but her expression revealed a touch of shyness: "Me too."

After saying that, she quickly left, only letting out a long sigh of relief after exiting the president's office.

Just then, a sound came from the next room.

Shang Wu paused for a moment, then heard Xiao Dong making a phone call in the office next door.

"It's not that I don't want to take care of Mom, I just really don't have time. Do you know how busy I am working with President Zhou?"

"Alright, alright! I recently lost money on investments, I'll try to borrow some money from Mr. Zhou for medical expenses!"
