Zhou Yanci smiled at her: "Or do you want me to find someone to send your aunt and uncle back to the nursing home before you're willing?"
Shang Wu froze, her hands trembling slightly, her eyes growing colder and colder.
She forgot that even if Zhou Yanci had nothing, she still had a team of bodyguards who would obey her every command.
Now, Zhou Yanci doesn't even bother to pretend anymore in order to achieve his goals.
They brazenly threatened her with her parents.
At this point, if she weren't still waiting for news from the Inspectorate, she would have immediately turned her back on everyone!
Tolerate.
Shang Wu bit her tongue, desperately trying to stay rational.
Seeing that she remained silent, Zhou Yanci reached out and gently rubbed the top of her head.
"Awu, I really like you and want to marry you. I've given you everything to be with you, so please, please don't let me down."
Zhou Yanci bypassed Shangwu and left without looking back.
Even after everyone had left for a long time, Shang Wu was still standing there, unable to come to her senses.
She sat on the sofa and checked the date on her phone.
Zhou Yanci wanted to get their marriage certificate, and she had no good excuse to avoid it.
Is there a way to suppress Zhou Yanci?
Shang Wu was restless, his thoughts racing.
After much thought, there was only one solution.
She got up and called Lu Rang as she left the house.
"Hey, Lu..."
"He didn't make things difficult for you, did he?" Lu Rang interrupted her, his tone carrying a hint of barely perceptible worry.
Shang Wu smiled and said, "Well, I'm not making things difficult for you, but I'm sorry to trouble you. On the surface, you can no longer be my legal advisor."
Lu Rang paused, then said meaningfully, "It's alright, I'm used to things that can't be seen in the light."
Shang Wu sensed a hint of resentment in his words and chuckled, "I have some things to attend to, so I'll head to the company first. Let me know as soon as there are any developments in the Shang case."
She hung up and rushed to catch the boat.
In the office.
As soon as Xiao Dong saw Shang Wu push the door open and come in, he quickly went to greet her.
"Mr. Shang."
Shang Wu nodded slightly, her expression solemn: "You need to arrange something for me. Right now, I can only trust you."
Xiao Dong rubbed his hands together, knowing that his time to pledge his loyalty had come.
These past few days, the tasks Shang Wu has asked him to do have been neither painful nor effective.
He desperately wanted to do something to prove that he had completely turned against Shang Wu.
Xiao Dong was inexplicably excited: "President Shang, please give your instructions."
Shang Wu's eyes flickered, and she lowered her voice to say a few words to him.
Upon hearing this, the determination on Xiao Dong's face instantly turned into astonishment.
He stared wide-eyed at Shang Wu with an incredulous look, as if he had seen a ghost.
"You, Mr. Shang, you're not kidding me, are you?"
Shang Wu looked at Xiao Dong seriously and patted him on the shoulder: "I'm serious, I'm not joking. Do as I say, and I'll give you a reward after it's done."
Xiao Dong's mouth dropped open, filled with surprise and doubt: "But..."
"No buts. As long as you help me accomplish this, you and Aying will be my right-hand men, enjoying endless wealth and glory. Do you want to accept or not?" Shang Wu interrupted him, her tone resolute.
It seemed that Xiao Dong had no room to refuse in this matter.
Xiao Dong clenched his fists, his expression growing increasingly troubled and fearful. He weakly asked, "What if things go wrong?"
"Find someone who can handle it, nothing will happen." Shang Wu frowned, annoyed by his indecisiveness. "I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Dong's legs went weak, and he said timidly, "Look at what you're saying, this is the first time I've ever done something like this in my life."
Shang Wu didn't have the patience to say more and handed him a bank card.
"Go and do it."
Unable to refuse, Xiao Dong sighed resignedly and turned to leave.
He had just pushed open the door when he almost bumped into someone.
Xiao Dong took two steps back: "Lawyer Lu, what are you doing here?"
Shang Wu turned around in surprise.
Lu Rang looked at Xiao Dong with a strange expression and said, "I've come to collect the documents I left on the boat."
Xiao Dong nodded: "I'll go ask Aying to help you tidy up."
Lu Rang nodded slightly.
After everyone left, he came in and asked, "What were you talking about just now? You want Xiao Dong to do something for you?"
Shang Wu's eyes flickered, and she turned her back and said softly, "Yes, it's something related to work."
Lu Rang stared intently at her retreating figure, frowning slightly with displeasure: "Shang Wu, I told you, don't lie to me."
No, really no.
Shang Wu remained calm and winked at him: "I've never hidden anything from you before, have I? How can you not believe me?"
Lu Rang didn't speak, but stared intently at her, as if judging the truth of her words.
Before he could even think for a few seconds, Shang Wu grabbed his sleeve.
Shang Wu's eyes sparkled with a smile: "Trust me, okay?"
She offered no convincing explanation; she simply stood there, her fingertips twirling her sleeves, her clear black and white eyes reflecting a smile, leaving Lu Rang unable to probe any further.
He grasped Shang Wu's fingertips in return, clenching them in his palm.
"In any case, don't do anything dangerous without my permission."
Shang Wu's heart tightened slightly, and she forced a smile: "Of course, what danger could there be?"
Lu Rang looked at her for a while and finally nodded.
Ah Ying came in and knocked on the door.
"Attorney Lu, could you come here for a moment? I need to see if this blue document is yours."
Lu Rang responded and walked over.
As Shang Wu watched his retreating figure, she suddenly impulsively called out to him.
"Lu Rang!"
Lu Rang turned to look at her: "What?"
Shang Wu took a deep breath, pretending to be relaxed.
"It's nothing, see you Monday."
