Zhou Yanci smiled.
He didn't care what conditions Shang Wu set, as long as it was something like bags, jewelry, or something related to work, he could provide it.
Zhou Yan's tone became even gentler: "Okay, baby, what are your conditions?"
Shang Wu said calmly, "First, Chen Mian and I will apologize to you in person for what happened last night."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou Yanci's smile froze.
He asked incredulously, "An apology in person?"
"Is that not allowed?" Shang Wu retorted. "Then forget it..."
"Wait, I didn't say no."
Zhou Yanci gripped her phone tightly and took a deep breath.
He was very satisfied with what the woman had done recently, and he could clearly see her determination to get back together with him after her return.
While we may be satisfied, we also need to exert appropriate pressure.
Otherwise, angering Shang Wu will only affect the work progress of the jewelry department.
It would be good to have Chenmian come over and apologize.
"I promise you, when you come back, I will bring Chenmian here to apologize to you immediately."
Shang Wu said, "My second condition is that I want you to cancel your investment in the Wang Group."
"An investment from the Wang Group?" Zhou Yanci was taken aback.
He didn't expect that this second condition had nothing to do with feelings or gifts.
“Li Chengzhang is the vice president of the Wang Group. He’s the one who got my brother imprisoned. You should withdraw your investment.”
Shang Wu's tone left no room for negotiation; it was full of commands.
For three years, she was too deeply deceived by Zhou Yanci's facade.
When Zhou Yanci wanted to invest in the Wang Group some time ago, she should have suspected something fishy was going on.
It's clear that the Wang family and Chengzhou are rivals. When her brother got into trouble, Zhou Yanci even helped her brother fight a lawsuit against Li Chengzhang, the vice president of the Wang family, to get a reduced sentence, which caused quite a stir.
Even more surprisingly, when this matter was reported by reporters, the news that Li Chengzhang had lost his fertility and that the heir of Chengzhou Group was favoring Qingmei's family became a trending topic, and Zhou Yanci's reputation was affected for a period of time.
Logically speaking, the two families should never have anything to do with each other again, but some time ago she suddenly heard Xiao Dong say that Zhou Yanci was investing in and supporting the Wang Group's projects.
The project was proposed by Li Chengzhang.
Shang Wu felt uneasy at the time, but comforted herself that since Zhou Yanci wanted to make many cooperations, it was inevitable that she would have to deal with the Wang family.
What's past is past. We can't just abandon projects that would benefit the company because of her.
However, it now appears that Zhou Yanci has maintained a good relationship with Li Chengzhang, and they have cooperated closely for the past three years.
Zhou Yanci must be very grateful to Li Chengzhang for cooperating in sending her brother to prison, right? For this, she didn't hesitate to expose her infertility to the public.
Shang Wu clenched her fist, her nails digging deep into her palm, and on the other side, where Zhou Yanci couldn't see, she revealed a look of intense hatred.
She asked, "Why aren't you saying anything? Is the withdrawal of investment causing you a lot of trouble?"
"...It's really a bit of a dilemma. The funds are the start-up capital for this project. If I withdraw my investment, the project, which has been in preparation for six months, will fall through, which will have a significant impact." Zhou Yan said helplessly, implying that Shang Wu should not make things difficult for him.
Shang Wu smiled faintly: "I don't understand. If you withdraw your investment and their project fails, will you suffer any loss?"
“Mr. Wang will be angry.”
"The Wang family is our rival in the boat business, always has been. What good will it do to be angry?"
"Can……"
Shang Wu, impatient, interrupted Zhou Yanci directly: "You used to be willing to do anything for me, what's wrong with you now? Has the appearance of Chenmian really shaken your heart? If so, I can step aside and let you two be together."
Upon hearing the word "quit," Zhou Yanci's heart clenched tightly.
Without hesitation, he said, "Okay, I'll do as you say, I'll withdraw my investment!"
"Yes, the withdrawal of investment has been finalized. I will go back immediately. When I get to the office, I want to see both Chenmian and you there."
Shang Wu hung up the phone and tossed it aside.
In the silent room, only her heart was pounding.
Even when she was playing a game with Zhou Yanci, she was still worried about being discovered, afraid that her well-hidden hatred might be accidentally revealed and alert the other party.
Shang Wu exhaled and looked out the window, surprised to find that it had started snowing outside.
It's still three months until deep winter.
As usual, it started snowing early in Lincheng.
At this moment, snow fell silently in the mountains, and Shang Wu, in this remote and unknown place, felt her heart being torn apart in many ways.
She was in a sanatorium where the medical equipment was beeping.
In a dangerous and ironic prison.
In the brightly lit Chengzhou Building.
Shang Wu couldn't help but kneel down by the window, clasping her hands together in front of the swirling snow and the dark, misty mountains outside.
People only pray to the gods when they are in despair.
But she is far from despairing.
No matter how difficult the road to revenge may be, I always believe that one day the wind and snow will clear and the sun will shine through.
"May God be my witness. I will definitely overcome this difficulty. Even if it costs me my life, I will make sure that their lives are a hundred times more painful than mine and the lives of my loving family."
Shang Wu slowly opened her eyes, her gaze resolute.
Then her phone rang, and Zhou Yanci called, sending her the proof of withdrawal of investment along with the phone.
Shang Wu smiled and looked at the desolate mountain scenery: "Okay, I'll go back first thing tomorrow morning."
...
The next day.
Shang Wu's car was covered with a layer of white.
The guesthouse owner helped her clear the snow.
Fortunately, the snow didn't last too long last night, so I was able to drive home safely.
Even so, Shang Wu was still two hours late to the company, which was originally scheduled for 10 o'clock.
Chenmian was getting impatient. Sitting on the sofa with her coffee, which had long since gone cold, she asked timidly, "Aci, when is Miss Shang coming?"
