The contract was slammed onto the table, like a resounding slap across Ji Yu's face.
"Who said I'd kowtow to you if we reached an agreement?" Shang Wu tapped the contract with her fingertip, her gaze falling on the woman on the sofa with a hint of sarcasm.
Ji Yu's face turned pale; she hadn't expected that her words would be overheard.
Zhou Yanci immediately picked up the contract.
Once the contract is signed and stamped, it is undoubtedly valid.
He looked up at Shang Wu in surprise: "How did you do that?"
"It's a secret," Shang Wu smiled.
Zhou Yanci didn't even have time to be curious about this, and immediately took the contract to show the shareholders.
Shang Wu glanced at Ji Yu.
Ji Yu stood up awkwardly, walked over and grabbed her arm, shaking it gently: "Awu, I only said that because I was worried about you. I'm just being blunt, so you won't be angry with me, right?"
Shang Wu smiled, took a step forward, and her high heels clicked crisply on the ground.
Her hand then landed on Ji Yu's shoulder, patting it lightly: "Of course not, after all, I'm about to be promoted to project manager, I don't have time to argue with you about this."
Zhou's mother sat on the sofa, her face pale.
Ji Yu was speechless for a moment and could only watch helplessly as Shang Wu left.
They exchanged a glance and looked at each other blankly.
Zhou's mother asked with difficulty, "Could it be that Shang Wu really can be the project manager of the company?"
"President Zhou made a promise in front of so many people, it seems we really have to promote her this time." Ji Yu gritted her teeth unwillingly and immediately chased after her.
When the two rushed to the meeting room, the shareholders were looking at the contract that Shang Wu had brought.
They all wore smiles that were either relaxed or happy.
"We still reached a cooperation agreement. Although the price is a little lower than the original transaction price, we are still guaranteed to make a profit."
"Director Shang did a great job! That's a really good approach!"
"Manager Wen made such a huge mess, but Director Shang resolved it in less than two hours. That's really impressive."
Praise for Shang Wu came one after another.
Shang Wu revealed a bright smile.
"Since everyone is satisfied, then please fulfill your promise, Mr. Zhou, and let me become the project manager?"
She turned around and looked at Zhou Yanci.
Zhou Yanci paused involuntarily.
The others' expressions also changed slightly; they hadn't expected her to still be thinking about this.
Holding multiple positions, including the most important one in the company, and wielding real power, is something that has never happened before.
The project manager position was given to Shang Wu, who also had the final say in the entire jewelry department. Currently, she was in charge of all the advertising and public relations departments as well.
They were always uneasy about entrusting her with so much power.
Seeing this, Shang Wu raised her eyebrows and looked at them, puzzled.
"What, you're not willing?"
Zhou Yanci paused slightly, then smiled: "No, how could that be? I will definitely keep my promise to you."
He changed the subject: "However, with the new jewelry product launch imminent, I'm afraid that if the project team is handed over to you again, I might..."
“I can handle it. I can solve a critical problem in a contract in two hours. Isn’t that enough to demonstrate my work efficiency? Besides, you promised me that yourself.”
Shang Wu interrupted Zhou Yanci, a barely perceptible cold light flashing in her eyes.
Before Zhou Yanci could speak, she forced a smile and pretended to be indifferent: "Of course, Wenxiang was someone I personally brought into the company. It's only right that I clean up his messes. If you're not willing, then forget it and find someone more competent for this position."
Shang Wu looked dejected.
A woman stood before Zhou Yanci and the shareholders, appearing somewhat pitiful and vulnerable.
After her reminder, Zhou Yanci suddenly realized that Wen Xiang's situation was too sudden, and no one could take over his position.
Shang Wu used to help him solve the company's problems and also handled the work of the project department.
It seems that no one is more suitable than her.
Shang Wu glanced at everyone in silence, smiled, and turned to leave dejectedly.
The next second, Zhou Yanci called out to her.
"Wait! From now on, you are the project manager."
Upon hearing this, everyone reacted with varying expressions.
Someone immediately wanted to speak.
Zhou Yanci glanced at them coldly: "Shang Wu has already fulfilled the promise I made. You didn't have any objections at the time, so don't stop me."
One sentence completely silenced everyone's doubts and objections.
They couldn't say anything and could only compromise.
Ignoring the unusually unpleasant expressions on the faces of Zhou's mother and the others, Zhou Yanci told Shang Wu to go back and rest first, and to come to the personnel department tomorrow to pick up the special appointment contract.
Shang Wu smiled slightly, then turned and left.
After everyone left, the shareholders also left, but Zhou's mother and Ji Yu stayed behind.
Ji Yu angrily questioned, "Why did you make her the project manager! You said that once the situation stabilized after the new product launch, you would let her go immediately! You've already gotten back together with Shen Mian, so why didn't you strip Shang Wu of her power and give her a new position? Doesn't this make it even more difficult for you to do without her?!"
Zhou Yanci's brow twitched slightly, her tone completely calm: "I don't need to explain my decisions to you. I will make her leave one day, what's the rush?"
Ji Yu wanted to speak again, but was stopped by Zhou's mother.
Zhou's mother gave Zhou Yanci a meaningful look: "No matter how you arrange things, we won't interfere, but you'd better compromise just for the sake of the company. Don't just say you're kicking Shang Wu out, only to get yourself into it later."
Zhou Yanci frowned, a glimmer of light appearing in his unfathomable gaze.
A cold smile curled at the corner of his lips: "How could that be? I've only ever used her for the past three years. Falling in love with Shang Wu? Absolutely not!"
