After weighing the pros and cons, Li Shiman had to compromise.

Mrs. Wu was very proud and couldn't help but make some sarcastic remarks, "Fourth Madam, why are you doing this? I am a nobody and my words are not taken seriously, so I can bear the injustice. But you, although Ruili is just one of the Cui family's businesses, it is also an old brand that has been in business for hundreds of years. As a result, it has only been a few days since you took over, and you have messed it up. Tsk, the elders of the Cui family don't know how to manage it...ah!!"

Mrs. Wu was complaining as she went to take the elevator, but was knocked down by a cleaner carrying a bucket. Most of the bucket of water was poured directly on Mrs. Wu, and the lady was instantly turned into a drowned rat.

"What do you do for a living? Don't you have eyes when you walk?!"

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it!"

The cleaning lady apologized and went to help Mrs. Wu in panic.

Everyone who was stunned by this scene rushed to help and lifted Mrs. Wu up from the ground. Shen Mingzhu was even more considerate and asked the female employee to take off her coat to cover Mrs. Wu's wet body to prevent her from being exposed.

It was so wet that she definitely couldn’t go out, so Mrs. Wu had to go back to the VIP room to tidy up.

The bag she left behind was quickly taken to another VIP room by the manager.

On this side, Shen Mingzhu also took the opportunity to touch Mrs. Wu all over her body while helping her wipe.

Even the clothes and high heels were not spared. They were taken outside for detailed inspection under the pretext of drying them.

No.

Seeing the manager shaking his head, implying that no diamonds were found in Mrs. Wu's bag or clothes, Shen Mingzhu was helpless and could only let Li Shiman send the person away.

But Mrs. Wu was unwilling to leave. She demanded justice from Li Shiman, claiming that she was humiliated, otherwise she would call the police.

When the two sides were in a stalemate, the second and third wives arrived.

"The eldest lady saw that Mrs. Wu had not come to the tea party, so she asked us to come and check on the situation."

After the second wife stated her purpose directly, she saw that Mrs. Wu looked embarrassed and angry, so she asked her what had happened.

After understanding the whole story, the second wife wanted to dismiss Manager Tang’s manager on the spot, as well as the two female employees who were responsible for receiving Mrs. Wu and the cleaning lady who caused the trouble.

Li Shiman naturally disagreed.

Ruili was the first property she took charge of after marrying into the Cui family. If the second wife really made the decision, then what prestige would she have as the person in charge in Ruili in the future?

As for the second wife, this was just a test. If Li Shiman gave in, she would definitely find a way to extend her hand to Ruili next time, completely sideline Li Shiman, and eventually become the actual controller of Ruili.

Li Shiman was determined, and even though the Second Wife was strong, she did not dare to force it. After all, Li Shiman was the person in charge appointed by Cui Rumao himself.

But she was obviously unwilling to give up this hard-earned opportunity to strike a blow to Li Shiman, and turned her gaze to Li's mother.

"Ms. Qiu, how do you think this matter should end today?"

Li's mother was unrestrained in front of Li Shiman, but she was very cautious in front of the second and third wives and didn't dare to say a word.

Although both are members of the Cui family, they are much better than Lai Shi Man in terms of birth, background, qualifications, etc.

What's more, the two of them came here on the orders of the eldest wife to deal with the stolen jewelry, which was not something they, mother and daughter could contend with.

With the idea that a good man should not suffer a loss in front of him, Li's mother chose to rebel without hesitation, "Shiman, don't be stubborn anymore, let's do what the second wife says."

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of everyone in the VIP room when looking at Li Shiman changed, some were sympathetic, some were gloating.

Looking at Li Shiman who was not sad, Shen Mingzhu finally understood why she said that there was no one around her to talk to.

Even my own mother doesn't stand on my side, let alone outsiders.

This Li mother is not even as good as a rural aunt like Qin Jinlian.

"Ruili is the business that Rumao entrusted to me. I will be solely responsible for any problems that arise. Sister Qun doesn't need to worry about it."

But even though she was forced into such a situation, Li Shiman still refused to give in.

The second wife was annoyed, but she looked helpless. "If that's the case, there's no point in meddling in other people's business. Please hurry up and don't keep the first wife waiting for too long."

Li Shiman took a deep breath and looked at Mrs. Wu. "Mrs. Wu, what happened today was our Ruili's negligence. We have brought you unhappiness. On behalf of Ruili, I formally apologize to you. We will compensate you for the dirty clothes and give you a new set. In addition, you will be upgraded to Platinum VIP for one year for free."

In Ruili, different VIP levels can enjoy different discounts and benefits.

Mrs. Wu sneered with a look of contempt, obviously not accepting Li Shiman's way of handling the matter.

The atmosphere suddenly became cold.

“Snap!”

The third wife on the sofa lit a lady's cigarette. She held the cigarette in her mouth while calmly lighting Li Shiman's cigarette:

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

"Some people have no ability but insist on occupying the toilet without doing anything. Lao Si, do you think such people are immoral?"

Li Shiman frowned and looked at the other party, "Sister Shaohui, smoking is not allowed in the store."

The third wife said "Oh", took a deep puff, pressed the cigarette butt into the orchid pot on the coffee table, and said casually:

"Sorry, I forgot. This pot of Emerald Orchid is the same as the one I have at home. I thought it was at home."

Li Shiman was unhappy with the Third Wife's behavior. Just as she was about to order the staff to clean up, Shen Mingzhu suddenly walked up to Li Shiman and whispered something to her.

After listening to this, Li Shiman thought for a moment, then turned around and told Manager Tang to bring a ruby ​​necklace worth $500,000 from the store as an apology to Mrs. Wu.

Mrs. Wu took the things without any hesitation and ridiculed Li Shiman. Then she got up and left with satisfaction, following the Second and Third Madams.

Shen Mingzhu accompanied Li Shiman to see a few people out.

The moment the three stepped out of Ruili's gate, Shen Mingzhu suddenly shouted, "Stop them! The lost jewels are on them!"

Everyone was stunned, including Li Shiman.

She looked at Shen Mingzhu in shock and uneasiness, "Mingzhu, don't joke."

She offended the second and third wives, but with Cui Rumao backing her up, the worst that could happen was that she would suffer some consequences.

But Shen Mingzhu was different from her. She was not completely sure that she could protect Shen Mingzhu, so she first wanted to use a joking statement to excuse Shen Mingzhu.

"Fourth Madam, I'm not kidding."

Shen Mingzhu's insistence made Li Shiman anxious and angry, and she really wanted to pin her to the ground and spank her.

"Fourth Madam, do you believe me?"

I don't believe you, you idiot.

Before Li Shiman could figure out how to respond, the Second Wife came up to her with an angry look on her face, "Old Four, what do you mean? Even Shaohui and I are suspicious?"

Although it was Shen Mingzhu who did it, everyone could see that Shen Mingzhu was Li Shiman's person, so naturally they blamed Li Shiman for what Shen Mingzhu did. (End of this chapter)
