President's Office.
Shang Wu was flipping through documents when suddenly there was a rapid knocking on the office door.
She said calmly, "Come in."
The next second, A-Ying couldn't wait to open the door and rush to her.
She pointed to herself, then to Shang Wu, and waved her hand excitedly, flapping it like a bird's wings.
Shang Wu grabbed her hand and pressed it onto the table.
"If you keep fanning me, I'll catch a cold. What exactly do you want to say? Calm down and tell me slowly."
"Impossible? No way! President Shang, I'm just a lowly assistant to the jewelry department director, and I've actually risen to become the president's secretary? Like Xiao Dong, I'm the president's special assistant for the entire Chengzhou Group? Really?!"
She was so excited she was incoherent, as if she had won the lottery while walking down the street.
Shang Wu smiled and patted her forehead with the document.
"Didn't I tell you that if you followed me, you'd get to eat meat?"
"I knew there would be meat to eat, but I never imagined it would be such top-quality dragon meat! Mr. Shang, am I dreaming?!"
Aying pulled hard on her face, only stopping when she felt the pain, and took a deep breath.
"My God, how did you do that? How did you suddenly become the acting president?"
Shang Wu looked at her with a half-smile, resting her chin on her hand: "I'm the one who supports the entire company's revenue generation. Now, Zhou Yanci's existence will not only bring huge losses to the company, but will also make everyone think of Chengzhou Group as a heartless, cheating scumbag. Do you think the shareholders want him or me?"
Aying covered her mouth, took two steps back, and her eyes shone with the adoration of someone looking at an idol.
"You were made the group's president by all the shareholders? In that case, no one can challenge your position! Does that mean President Zhou can't return to the company?"
Shang Wu's eyes darkened slightly.
This is what worries her the most right now.
The shareholders are now determined to appoint her as acting president because they believe that only by pushing her forward can they quickly reverse the company's negative public image.
Everyone believed that the shareholders were fair and just, and in order to give her an explanation, they put aside their own interests and appointed her as acting president.
In this way, those outsiders who feel indignant on her behalf will think that everyone in the company, except for Zhou Yanci, has sound values.
But the company was founded by the Zhou family. This group was started by Mr. Zhou and all the partners.
These people are ultimately more loyal to the Zhou family. According to the will of the Zhou family patriarch, the position of president can only be held by a descendant of the Zhou family.
Besides, Zhou Yanci still holds shares in Chengzhou Group. It's highly likely that the shareholders just want her to be the acting president for a while, and then find a way to bring her back after the turmoil here has completely subsided.
If all else fails, they'll let her continue as the acting president, a puppet to make money, and won't completely expel Zhou Yanci.
Her goal was not merely to replace Zhou Yanci and suspend her from her post.
What she wanted was for this person to be completely destroyed.
Shang Wu snapped out of her daze and gently pinched A Ying's cheek.
"In short, now that you're with me, you're the most important person in this company besides me, and everyone is eager to curry favor with you."
Aying was even happier, already fantasizing about how she would swagger around the company.
"However, you must stay calm and not fall for the tricks of some people with ulterior motives. Don't get close to those people you shouldn't be near." Shang Wu tapped the tip of her nose.
Aying nodded vigorously: "I know this, I understand it. After so many years of observing and reading people in the jewelry department, I know which people I shouldn't approach."
She stood at attention and patted her chest.
"Don't worry, I will not let those who try to get close to me to find out information or have ulterior motives get away with it, nor will I easily reveal any clues to them!"
Shang Wu nodded with satisfaction.
Aying changed the subject, leaned on the desk, and blinked curiously.
"And what about you and Zhou Yanci?"
Shang Wu paused slightly: "What?"
"Do you want to continue your relationship with him? News of his infidelity is everywhere, and everyone says you must be very principled to break off the engagement."
Shang Wu curled her lips into a smile.
She said calmly, "I have no intention of breaking off the engagement at all."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a figure appeared at the office door.
Lu Rang stood outside, paused, and looked over with a detached expression.
Shang Wu was met with his dark gaze when she felt a jolt in her heart.
Aying was also stunned for a moment, not expecting him to appear here and overhear these words by sheer coincidence.
She quickly put away her gossipy expression.
Shang Wu nodded: "Attorney Lu, please come in."
Knowing they had something to say, Ah Ying tactfully left to deal with work documents.
After everyone left, Lu Rang turned around and stared intently at Shang Wu.
Before he could speak, Shang Wu coughed lightly and took the initiative to change the subject.
"Now that you are President Chengzhou's personal legal counsel, how does this title suit you?"
She raised her eyebrows, gesturing for Lu Rang to sit on the sofa.
The entire Jinshui Law Firm works for Chengzhou Group, and with this powerful backer as their support, they are proud and complacent.
Jinshui repeatedly targeted Dingfeng because he knew Dingfeng lacked backing.
Now that she has kicked away the entire Jinshui Law Firm and supported Lu Rang and the Dingfeng Law Firm behind him to rise to power, it can be considered as a way of repaying Lu Rang for helping her.
Lu Rang kept his lips pursed and didn't say anything, just quietly looking at Shang Wu.
It was obvious that he was unhappy.
Shang Wu asked softly, "What, you're not interested in any of these things? You were the one who told me you didn't like the Jinshui Law Firm."
