When she was little, she really regarded her parents as godlike figures.
Give her food and drink, and give her pretty toys.
They started their own business from scratch, and they are capable of loving their children and have good relationships.
Such a family is the kind of family that everyone would be laughing in their sleep.
However, Shang Wu no longer has that thought at all.
When did this refined, outstanding, and flawless good man and father become the hypocrite who seized other people's property and companies by relying on his wife's interference, and then called himself a self-made man?
These days, Shang Wu has been living a very dreamlike life.
She couldn't distinguish between what was real and what was fake.
After being harmed, they endured the greatest malice.
Then, that perfect family—her parents and brother who smiled and professed their love to her—all changed overnight.
It even made her wonder if her life three years ago was just a dream.
Shang Wu couldn't hold back any longer.
"Although I have severed ties with your Shang family, you have raised me, so I still cannot call you Mr. Shang. However, I cannot use the word 'mother' to address your wife."
"Dad, I want to ask you, since I've severed ties with your wife and you won't interfere in my relationship with Lu Rang, why did you call me here today?"
"Do you really not know, or are you pretending not to know?" Shang Lingfei looked at her with an indescribable expression.
Shang Wu looked him straight in the eye and shook her head: "I really don't know what your purpose is in calling me here."
“I am at ease with you taking over the company’s business. Your brother has been studying French since middle school. He is not good at business. I am very pleased that you can support our business.”
"When you took over the company the day before yesterday, I didn't think anything of it. I even thought that you should have been in charge of the company in the first place. But why did you change the family company to Freya Group?"
"Even if you're very angry, you can't just change the company name like that."
Shang Wu frowned.
She couldn't understand and retorted, "That's my company now. Whatever name I change it to is within my control."
"That's not how it's said," Shang Lingfei said, somewhat displeased. "This company was formerly Chengzhou. Have you forgotten why Chengzhou was able to develop into a listed company and achieve such a considerable scale?"
"It's because you worked for him for so many years and improved the company's performance. It's because he climbed the corporate ladder by leveraging the connections and resources of our business group and profiting from our misfortunes. You could say that most of Chengzhou's success is due to our family."
"I have no objection to you taking this group without saying a word, but you actually changed the name of the Shang Group? Do you want to completely erase the reputation and status of the Shang Group in the entire industry?"
Shang Lingfei stared at her in disbelief, his brows furrowed, as if this were something unacceptable.
Shang Wu casually straightened her sleeves and sat down next to him.
“Father, I still truly believe in cause and effect. I believe that doing good deeds will make things better, and I also believe that even if the retribution for doing bad deeds doesn’t come immediately, it will come on schedule someday many years later.”
"So, Father, think about it again. When the listed group you painstakingly maintained vanished, didn't you do something similar before? It wasn't just bad luck or misfortune; it was retribution?"
Shang Wu stared directly at Shang Lingfei, almost as if she wanted to recount everything that had happened back then.
Shang Lingfei immediately noticed her unease, frowned, and asked in a deep voice, "Who told you all this? Who is spreading these baseless rumors! Shang Wu, if you believe such absurd rumors, you're really incredibly foolish! We're family, we should trust each other..."
"I've found out everything I needed to."
Shang Wu interrupted him, unable to contain herself any longer, "Dad, I want to ask you something, how did you and your wife start your company back then? Do you dare to tell me?"
She raised an eyebrow, looking at Shang Lingfei's astonished expression.
Do you dare to say it?
