Zhou Yanci swallowed hard, and said with difficulty, "Does it have to be this way?"
"You just said that as long as I solve the company's problems, you can do whatever you want with me."
Shang Wu's voice was contemptuous: "I need you to agree to this right now. Are you willing to do it or not?"
The shareholders looked at Zhou Yanci's hesitant appearance and were all disappointed in her.
"For a woman who abandoned you to go abroad three years ago, you gave up your ready-made fiancée, disregarded the company's losses, and now that you've done something wrong, you won't even give Mr. Shang a fair chance!"
They started calling Shang Wu "President Shang," treating her as if she were the company's current president.
Shang Wu stepped forward, the tips of his shoes making a crisp sound on the cold tiles, as if he was ready to pull the trigger and shoot someone in the head.
Her tone left no room for refusal, her gaze mocking as if she were looking at something in the palm of her hand: "Zhou Yanci, this is the only chance I'll give you to forgive me. You can decide for yourself whether you want it or not."
The light in Zhou Yanci's eyes completely disappeared.
He gritted his teeth: "Okay, I agree, I'll sign the agreement."
Shang Wu smiled slightly and turned to face everyone.
"We need to have a meeting to discuss the next steps. You can leave now."
She ruthlessly chased people away.
Zhou Yanci was embarrassed, but there was nothing she could do. She could only leave, looking back every few steps.
After everyone left, Shang Wu slowly and deeply exhaled.
Before her stood the company seal that the shareholders had given her.
With Zhang in charge, she made all the decisions in the company.
When she first arrived here, the shareholders threatened her to run the jewelry department properly, and she only agreed to add this new department because of Zhou Yanci.
Now, the entire shareholders' meeting is under Shang Wu's control, and everyone has to be at her beck and call.
Shang Wu lowered her eyes, picked up the seal, her hands trembling as she tried to maintain a calm demeanor, though her heart had been boiling for a long time.
Zhou Yanci was forced to leave the company, and the child she had tried so hard to protect became an illegitimate child.
Even if his relationship with Shen Mian is true love, it will constantly remind him that this woman is the culprit who caused him to lose his position as president and ruin his image.
This feeling is really great.
Shang Wu gracefully took her seat and looked at everyone.
"Let's begin the meeting."
...
A tense and serious meeting is taking place in the conference room.
Zhou Yanci felt as if all her strength had been drained, and she stumbled and staggered down the stairs.
Along the way, they were met with countless strange looks.
The company has already notified Zhou Yanci of her suspension and that Shang Wu will temporarily assume the position of president.
Based on the news online, the way everyone was looking at Zhou Yanci at this moment was as if they had never met him before.
In everyone's eyes, Zhou Yanci was flawless.
With deep affection, when the business case caused a huge uproar and everyone was trying to avoid it, he bent down and reached out to pull his beloved out of the abyss.
He was devoted to Shang Wu and cherished her for three years as always.
He excels at his work, leading the group step by step to better results. He is a steady and reliable leader.
In their work group, a saying circulated among the female employees: "If you're going to marry, marry Zhou Yanci, otherwise you'll be single forever."
But now, that statement has become a complete joke, an irony of Zhou Yanci's perfect persona that she has maintained for so many years.
"My God, I never imagined he would hook up with that Miss Shen, it's disgusting!"
"Miss Shang must be heartbroken and in pain. She's been betrayed and now she has to shoulder the burden of the company when it's falling apart. How long will she have to keep this company going all by herself?"
"I originally thought that President Zhou was the reliable umbrella that could hold Chengzhou up, but who knew that the umbrella was held by someone else."
The numerous voices of condemnation were like barbed whips, lashing at Zhou Yanci.
He swayed, his legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground before even leaving the company gate.
Some people exclaimed in alarm, but no one dared to come over and help him up.
They all felt it was bad luck, and looked at Zhou Yanci as if she were a monstrous flood, avoiding her at all costs.
Zhou Yanci sat under the bright lights of the hall, his eyes dim, and suddenly let out a soft scoff.
He schemed for three years to get everything, and now he has nothing left.
After painstakingly defeating Zhou Ze'an and using the merchants to support Cheng Zhou all the way to this point, he finally got his wish and brought back the white moonlight who abandoned him three years ago to have a child with him.
He was clearly the winner in life, so why did things turn out like this?
When did he begin to gradually lose control of everything and the situation?
Zhou Yanci struggled to her feet, her eyes dark as she clenched her fists. She took out her phone and called Xiao Dong.
It took Xiao Dong a long time to answer the phone, and he lowered his voice: "I'm in a meeting with President Shang right now, President Zhou, you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Yanci interrupted him.
"After your meeting, please do me a favor!"
Xiao Dong was taken aback: "What's wrong? I still have to work. Now that President Shang is acting president, there are many things that we need to work on together."
Zhou Yanci angrily rebuked, "I only asked you to keep an eye on Shang Wu and see what she does every day as acting president! Is that so hard?! Don't forget who brought you to this position!"
Xiao Dong quickly agreed: "I understand, I understand. Don't worry, Mr. Zhou, I will keep an eye on it."
Zhou Yanci hung up the phone, her eyes dark, and sent a message to Chenmian.
Don't panic.
Things haven't completely spiraled out of control yet.
