Shang Wu chuckled: "No one can touch you if I don't give the word. Do as I say. Only when you stand up for yourself will others not dare to bully you. When will you ever become truly strong and independent if you always rely on me to protect you?"
These words were spoken to Aying, and also to herself.
Fortunately, even though she has been completely devoted to Zhou Yanci and Ji Yu all these years, she has always maintained her own value and has not completely become the woman behind Zhou Yanci, nor a docile and obedient canary.
Even if Zhou Yanci wanted to deal with her, he would have to consider what losses he would suffer by taking a boat.
After hanging up the phone, Shang Wu went home to take a shower and go to bed.
At 2 a.m., the top of the Chengzhou Building was brightly lit.
Zhou Yanci was processing documents while occasionally picking up her phone to check them.
Shang Wu did not call or message him.
He was absent-minded, coldly placed his phone face down on the table, and simply turned it off.
...
the next day.
Shang Wu got up very early and went to the sanatorium with tonics and gifts.
Following Zhou Yanci's instructions, the nurse took the things she brought, but wouldn't let her go inside.
“Your parents are doing well. We send you photos every day, Ms. Shang. They are currently in a closed treatment room, so it is really inconvenient for you to see them.”
The nurse had a sincere smile on her face and spoke gently.
Shang Wu pursed her lips, somewhat disappointed.
She does receive photos every day.
In order to keep her calm, Zhou Yanci did not dare to be careless in treating her father.
The photos you see are different from the photos you see in person.
Shang Wu misses her parents.
Having no other option, she could only ask, "How long until the closed treatment ends?"
About a week.
"Okay, I'll come pick them up in seven days."
Shang Wu turned and left, getting into her car.
She gripped the steering wheel, thought for a moment, then grabbed her phone and searched online for a guesthouse near the mountains. She booked a room for two days and one night and drove straight there.
Upon arriving at the guesthouse, Shang Wu greeted Lu Rang and then immediately turned off her phone, cutting off all contact.
Meanwhile, Chengzhou Group.
Ji Yu appeared in the jewelry department, looking confident and triumphant, wearing high heels.
The employees greeted her warmly.
"Season design."
Good morning, Teacher Ji.
Ji Yu frowned in displeasure and pouted, "Didn't you see the internal notice? I'm the acting director now, you should call me Director Ji."
The crowd's expressions changed, and they quickly changed their tune.
Ji Yu snorted softly, crossed her arms, and looked down at them.
"Alright, from now on I'll work in Shang Wu's office. Bring me all the documents that she handles."
She turned around, pushed open the office door, and went inside.
Everyone looked at Aying.
Aying curled her lips without batting an eye and said sarcastically, "Since Director Ji is capable of replacing Director Shang, what are you all standing around for? Just send over all the documents that need to be processed."
Everyone understood immediately and went inside with various documents and files.
Ji Yu had just sat down, and before she could even warm up the leather chair, seven or eight people came in.
They placed the documents on the table.
"Director Ji, this contains all the promotional scripts submitted by the video bloggers we collaborate with. Please review them personally."
"Director, Xiao Liu and I are going to meet with our partner at 3 PM this afternoon. This is some information you need to review temporarily, so it shouldn't interfere with our normal work communication."
“Director Shang usually writes her own jewelry promotion column, which requires a 3,000-word text analysis. Could you write it for her?”
More and more people gathered around, and the documents on the table piled up like a mountain.
Ji Yu stared in astonishment, "So much work, and I have to finish it all in one day?!"
"Of course, today is the day with the least workload. She has to handle this much work almost every day."
Aying walked in, staring intently at Ji Yu with a half-smile: "Since Director Ji is so confident that she can take over her work, let's get started. Make sure all of this is done before you leave work this afternoon."
"You did this on purpose, didn't you!"
Ji Yu was furious and slammed her hand on the table, saying, "Aying, you're the director's secretary, you'll do these tasks for me!"
"Sorry, I don't know how. I only run errands for Director Shang. She does all these things herself."
Aying smiled: "Then I'll have to trouble Director Ji to work hard these next few days. The product pre-sale promotion period is very busy, so we can't let things fall apart."
Ignoring Ji Yu's gloomy expression, everyone left.
Ji Yu stood up angrily and called out twice, but no one paid any attention to her.
Having no other choice, Ji Yu went upstairs to find Zhou Yanci.
"Call Shang Wu back to be the director! I can't do this job. There are too many things to do, and it's too complicated. Just looking at all these documents on the table makes my head spin!"
Zhou Yanci's expression wasn't much better.
He was still annoyed because Shang Wu hadn't sent any messages to apologize, and said irritably, "We're breaking up, why don't you call her?"
Ji Yu pursed her lips speechlessly, took out her phone and called Shang Wu.
She called, and then her expression changed.
"It's turned off."
At that moment, Xiao Dong quickly went upstairs and knocked on the office door.
"Mr. Zhou, the financial channel has a meeting with the jewelry department to promote limited-edition items today. Director Shang is not here. Who can fill in?"
Zhou Yanci and Ji Yu looked at each other, both stunned.
Throughout the entire jewelry department, no one could be found to replace Shang Wu and take on the responsibility.
