Don't think about these things now; there are more important things to do.

She gave Ah Ying a wink.

Ah Ying immediately lowered her head and left.

As she brushed past Liu Ziye, he deliberately blocked her with his shoulder.

Aying quickly backed away: "What are you doing?"

Liu Ziye looked her up and down and whistled.

"Nice figure."

Aying's expression instantly turned aggrieved and angry, but because she didn't know who the other person was, she didn't dare to offend them. Helplessly, she twisted her fingers and looked at Shang Wu.

Shang Wu glared at Liu Ziye: "Your dad sent you, an idiot, here to train under me, not to flirt with my secretary. Apologize and then get back in!"

Liu Ziye was dumbfounded by her reprimand. He had never seen a woman with such a strong aura before and was momentarily stunned.

"Yes, I'm sorry..."

Ah Ying ignored her, gave a soft snort, and took the opportunity to run away.

Shang Wu narrowed her eyes: "What are you standing there for? Close the door and come over."

Liu Ziye obediently closed the door and walked up to her.

Shang Wu circled around him, as if examining a piece of pork hanging on an iron hook, assessing its price and freshness.

As she scrutinized him, Liu Ziye flashed what he thought was a very handsome smile: "President Shang, how's my physique?"

Shang Wu smiled and patted his shoulder: "Indeed, she's quite good. No wonder she was able to hook up with Zhou Yanci."

Liu Ziye's smile vanished instantly: "What?"

"The child sleeping in your belly, is it yours?" Shang Wu turned around and sat down at her desk.

Liu Ziye was shocked: "What nonsense are you talking about! How could the sleeping child be mine! That child belongs to Zhou Yanci!"

"Really?" Shang Wu smiled enigmatically. "Well then, there's high technology available now that allows for genetic testing while the baby is still in the womb. How about we go and find out who the father is?"

Liu Ziye's legs went weak, and he immediately begged for mercy: "President Shang, can you please not tell Zhou Yanci about this? I, I really didn't mean to get her pregnant. I didn't even know she was Zhou Yanci's woman, I..."

Shang Wu raised her hand, interrupting his explanation.

She crossed her arms and leaned back in her chair.

"Now is not the time to explain. Get ready. I'll take you out to dinner tonight, and you'll only have one task then."

Liu Ziye's breath hitched, a bad feeling creeping over him: "What mission?"

Shang Wu beckoned to him.

The two were talking when there was a knock on the office door.

Shang Wu called out, "Come in."

Lu Rang pushed open the door and entered, his eyes darkening.

No one is allowed to approach the inside of Shang Wu's desk without permission, but the man pulled up a chair, sat down at the desk, and looked at Shang Wu with his chin in his hand.

Shang Wu glanced at Lu Rang, then looked at Liu Ziye: "Understood?"

"Understood, I will definitely do as you say," Liu Ziye replied obediently.

Shang Wu nodded: "Go out."

Liu Ziye stood up and asked, seemingly oblivious to everyone else, "So, tonight, should I ride in your car, or should I pick you up and we go together?"

Shang Wu narrowed her eyes slightly: "Is there a difference?"

"I just got a sports car, haven't driven it yet, let me take you for a spin." Liu Ziye started to show his frivolous nature again, winking at her.

Shang Wu looked at him, wanting to slap him across the face.

He's still thinking about flirting with women.

No wonder Zhou Yanci's white moonlight gets provoked.

That's incredibly audacious.

She impatiently urged, "Fine, bring your sports car over and get out."

Liu Ziye walked away with a grin.

Lu Rang pursed his thin lips, watched the person leave, and then closed the door.

Who was that person just now?

Shang Wu gave him a deep look: "I happen to have a contract to sign. The person will be here this afternoon. Can you help me check if there are any legal loopholes?"

She handed the documents over.

Lu Rang approached, his hand reaching past the documents to grasp her slender wrist, pressing, "Who exactly is he? Is there anything I can't know?"

Shang Wu met his dark eyes, pursed her lips, and said slowly and deliberately, "He is the son of a shareholder of the Tang Group. He is the person I asked Tang Xueli to send."

Lu Rang frowned slightly: "Is he useful to you?"

Seeing that he showed no change in expression, Shang Wu was puzzled.

Why didn't I react when I heard Tang Xueli's name?

Shang Wu pulled her hand away from his: "It's for dealing with slumber."

Lu Rang withdrew his hand: "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing much," Shang Wu denied instinctively.

Lu Rang looked at her: "I told you, don't lie to me."

Shang Wu paused for a moment: "Okay, actually someone made me angry today. Her name is Su Tingting. Do you know her?"

Lu Rang still didn't react. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I've heard of him. Isn't he the one who mocked you at the party before?"

Shang Wu: "..."

Is it that Lu Rang is too good at hiding his emotions, or is it that his marriage partner is not one of these two?

She bit her lip and gave a perfunctory reply: "Oh right, I've always disliked her. I get upset whenever she's around."

Lu Rang stared at her, seemingly trying to gauge the credibility of her words.

"Never want to see her again?"

Shang Wu chimed in, "Yes, I never want to again."

Lu Rang thought for a moment and said, "I understand. You go ahead and do your work."

He turned and left.

Shang Wu then looked up, staring thoughtfully at his back.

In the afternoon, she took Aying and Xiao Dong to a meeting to sign a contract.

I was busy until six o'clock when Tang Xueli called.

"How is Liu Ziye doing with you? Has he caused any trouble?"

Shang Wu rubbed her sore neck and smiled, "No, I didn't expect you to care about him so much."

Tang Shirley said, "I was afraid he would cause you trouble, and by the way, I'll tell you a shocking piece of gossip that I'm sure you'll be interested in."

Shang Wu held her phone to her ear with her left hand, while unconsciously gripping her pen with her right: "What's going on?"

"I don't know what Su Tingting did wrong, but her dad sent her abroad to retake the CFA exam. It's hilarious! She graduated from university several years ago and still hasn't passed the exam!"

Tang Shirley gloated on the phone.

Shang Wu's hand froze, and the pen rolled off the corner of the table and onto the floor.

No way...

She had just told Lu Rang that morning that she never wanted to see Su Tingting again.

Who exactly is Lu Rang that even Su Tingting's father has to give him face and send his beloved daughter away?
