Zhou Yanci grabbed Ji Yu by the collar, her face dark with anger.
"Ji Yu, are you crazy? You're trying to jump off a building on the Yu family's turf, are you deliberately trying to cause me trouble?!"
Ji Yu was pale and dared not utter a sound.
Shang Wu stood in front of Ji Yu, frowning: "Look how scared you've made her! Even if she did something wrong, she's only sorry to me. Even if she's guilty, she shouldn't be tortured by the people in your villa. It's no wonder she's jumping off a building to commit suicide."
Zhou Yanci was taken aback, not expecting that she already knew.
Shang Wu pressed, "You are the one who caused her to jump off the building. What right do you have to demand an explanation from her?"
After being berated by her, Zhou Yanci said aggrievedly, "But I was only doing it for your own good, to stand up for you..."
"Is all this commotion for my own good?" Shang Wu impatiently looked away, crossing her arms. "From now on, I'll take care of Ji Yu. You go and deal with the trouble in the villa area."
Zhou Yanci had nothing to say and could only nod.
Shang Wu glanced at him: "The problem lies with you. Don't expect anyone to solve it for you."
The once powerful and influential CEO of the Zhou Group, who once commanded respect on his boat, was now being reprimanded and left feeling dejected.
Zhou Yanci said helplessly, "Awu, can't you be nicer to me? I feel like you don't love me anymore after you forgave me. Is it because I saved your life before that you're only staying with me now?"
A hint of mockery flashed across Shang Wu's eyes.
She replied with the universal formula: "There's nothing I can do if that's how you think."
Zhou Yanci almost choked on her breath: "But I still want to take Ji Yu with me..."
“I don’t like repeating myself. She’s under my control now, understand?” Shang Wu interrupted him.
Zhou Yanci clenched her fists, a hint of anger flashing in her eyes.
Shang Wu immediately retorted, "Or are you trying to break up with me in order to forcibly take her away?"
Her words carried a threat.
Zhou Yanci's clenched fist loosened and tightened again.
In front of Shang Wu, he felt so insignificant that he wasn't even worthy of carrying her shoes.
Is it really necessary?
It's like having an affair once, and you're forever nailed to the pillar of shame.
If Shang Wu continues to treat him this way in the future, wouldn't that be worse than death?
When Zhou Yanci came to the ward just now, she saw Lu Rang again.
Did his words have no effect on Shang Wu at all?
Why does Shang Wu still take Lu Rang with her wherever she goes?
A jumble of thoughts flashed through Zhou Yanci's mind in an instant, and in the end, she could only nod.
"Fine, I'll leave now and not worry about anything here. Don't be angry with me, okay?"
He reached out and tugged at Shang Wu's sleeve.
Shang Wu brushed it away and patted the spot where he had grabbed her a few times, as if she thought it was dirty.
Zhou Yanci gritted her teeth, feeling both sad and angry.
But knowing that he was in the wrong, he could only grit his teeth and bear it.
Anyway, Shang Wu's attitude can't stay like this forever.
Once they calm down and time passes, they'll obediently follow his every word.
He was waiting for that day.
Zhou Yanci consoled herself and left.
When Shang Wu turned around, she met Ji Yu's ghost-like expression.
Ji Yu was dumbfounded and shocked.
"You used to be so obedient and submissive to Zhou Yanci, how come he doesn't dare to utter a word in front of you now? What did you do to make him like this?"
She felt that when she was locked in the villa, Zhou Yanci was gradually preparing to kick Shang Wu out, but she never expected that Zhou Yanci would now be as humble as a dog in front of Shang Wu.
The company's assets and everything else were all taken by Shang Wu.
What does he even do?
Ji Yu felt nauseous and regretted it even more.
If she had known Shang Wu was so clever and resourceful, she shouldn't have teamed up with Zhou Yanci.
Looking back on those days, Shang Wu was truly exceptional to her.
They gave her everything she could eat and wear, treating her like their own sister.
If she hadn't sided with Zhou Yanci and instead chosen to attach herself to Shang Wu, Shang Wu would now be Shang Shang's daughter, and she would be half of Shang Shang's daughter, with a bright future ahead of her.
What kind of good men would a business owner find for her without trying every possible way?
Even if she wanted to marry a powerful or wealthy person in the city, merchants would go to great lengths to help her find a good match.
The more Ji Yu thought about these things, the more she regretted her situation.
Seeing that Shang Wu wanted to leave, she spoke up weakly.
“A-Wu”.
Being called that by her made Shang Wu feel even more nauseous than eating a piece of lard.
She turned around and said expressionlessly, "What do you want now?"
Ji Yu's eyes flickered, and tears streamed down her face. "I know I was wrong. I'm so sorry. I've only just realized that after all this time, you're the one who's been the best to me. If I'm truly repentant, can you forgive me?"
Shang Wu's eyes turned icy cold in an instant, devoid of any warmth.
“I can forgive you, as long as you erase all the things that happened to my brother in prison from the past and turn my brother into an outstanding and upright young master of a business with no criminal record.”
Ji Yu opened her mouth, but in an instant, all the light in her eyes disappeared.
"You know perfectly well that this is impossible."
"Yes, the harm you've done to the Shang family can never be made up for. You deserve to spend your life like a rat in a sewer, spending your life in a dark and hopeless prison to atone for your sins! I will not forgive you, nor do I have the right to forgive on behalf of my brother and the others!"
Shang Wu turned around and walked away without looking back.
Ji Yu collapsed onto the bed, feeling utterly hopeless, and couldn't help but cry out.
