"Why don't you break off your engagement with Zhou Yanci?" Lu Rang asked.
Shang Wu pursed her lips and explained, "I haven't finished everything yet. I still need to collect more evidence to send him to jail. How can just the affair be enough? Don't forget, the Shang family case is still firmly in the background. We are all waiting for the injustice to be redressed."
The company's actions only caused Zhou Yanci's career to plummet, severely impacting her and making her her subordinate. She no longer dared to lay a hand on her or take advantage of her, or she would simply let Shen Mian vent her anger.
She could only try to calm Zhou Yanci down first, just in case things progressed too quickly and Zhou Yanci realized something was wrong.
If Zhou Yanci discovers her intentions and clears the evidence first, she will have no chance of winning.
Lu Rang was silent for a moment before saying, "I understand."
He left without drinking the coffee on the table.
Shang Wu felt a sudden tightness in her chest and called out to him.
"Wait, I've explained everything clearly, why are you still not happy?"
Lu Rang clenched his fist and suddenly took two steps closer.
Shang Wu instinctively stepped back.
Lu Rang stopped where he was and did not approach her again.
"Regarding the merchant's case, I will submit an investigation application to the court."
Shang Wu frowned and looked at him: "Didn't you say that the investigation and application process takes time?"
"I will use my connections to get the application documents as soon as possible."
Lu Rang's eyebrows twitched slightly, his gaze fixed on Shang Wu with a strange expression.
Shang Wu blinked, curious: "Why are you in such a hurry? You seem even more anxious than I am, the person involved."
Lu Rang said casually, "I don't want to see you acting with him anymore. I don't like it."
After saying that, he turned and left without looking back.
Watching his retreating figure, Shang Wu stood there stunned, unable to come to her senses for a long time.
Her fingertips curled up as she suddenly realized that while she was acting, someone was watching her and Zhou Yanci put on an act, and they also felt disgusted and uncomfortable for her, empathizing with her feelings.
Was Lu Rang going too far, or was she just being presumptuous, thinking that although Lu Rang didn't like to cause trouble or meddle in other people's business, he only showed concern for her, which was an unusual feeling?
I guess it's because I experienced too much today.
Shang Wu suddenly felt that something was not real.
She always felt that Lu Rang was different, it seemed to have started with that kiss.
Shang Wu seemed to be deep in thought. Just as she sat down at the table, the Zhou family called.
Upon seeing that it was a call from the Zhou family, Shang Wu's eyes darkened slightly, and she answered the call.
She asked coldly, "What is it?"
Zhou's mother changed her previous condescending attitude and pleaded on the phone.
"I'm begging you, Shang Wu, please come back! I want to see you. I know about what's been happening online and at the company lately. Zhou Yanci is such a jerk, he's wronged you! Come back, I'll make him apologize properly!"
Shang Wu frowned slightly.
Is this something that Zhou's mother could say?
Even Zhou's mother, who used to make things difficult for her in every way, actually humbled herself and begged her to go back.
That's really interesting.
Shang Wu hung up the phone and got up to leave.
As she passed the secretary's office, she went in and knocked on the door.
Aying looked up from a pile of documents and looked at her.
Shang Wu smiled and said, "Xiao Dong will be here to help you soon. Are you getting used to it?"
Aying nodded and quickly said, "I've adapted!"
"Could you arrange a meeting with the Jinshui legal team for me later? I need to see them in person."
Aying nodded: "Okay, I'll take care of it right away."
Shang Wu paused again as she went downstairs before returning to her office.
"Also, arrange a separate office for Lu Rang, next to mine."
"Doesn't he not work regular office hours? And even if he did, wouldn't he prefer to stay at the branch office? It's quieter there." Aying chewed on her pen, looking at her with some confusion.
Shang Wu smiled slightly.
"I didn't prepare this office so that he would work in the office regularly. Anyway, I'll let him know after I've set up the office."
Aying nodded haphazardly, too busy to notice anything else.
Shang Wu drove his white Maserati away from the company and headed to the Zhou family home.
On the way downstairs, everyone respectfully addressed her as President Shang, their eyes filled with respect, admiration, sympathy, and pity.
These looks were all well-intentioned.
Shang Wu has lost count of how long it has been since she experienced a world surrounded by kindness.
She drove to the Zhou family's house.
As soon as I entered, I saw not only Zhou's mother and Zhou Yanci, but also Chenmian.
Chenmian was completely stunned, kneeling on the ground with red eyes.
Seeing the group's posture, Shang Wu found it amusing and walked in without making a sound.
She asked, "What's going on?"
Zhou Yanci immediately raised her head and walked up to her.
“Awu, I brought Chenmian here to show you my stance.”
After saying that, he turned his head and coldly ordered Chenmian, "What are you still standing there for? Come here."
Chenmian shuddered, gritted her teeth unwillingly, and slowly walked up to Shang Wu.
Shang Wu raised an eyebrow.
Is this another publicity stunt?
