I was criticized on a dating reality show, but I retaliated and became an internet sensation.

Shu Zi raised an eyebrow: "Hmm?"

"Several people have left, all of whom were people I could talk to before."

Lan Manwen's voice lowered, and he leaned forward slightly:

"Moreover, it wasn't a normal transfer or resignation; I was suddenly asked to leave without any handover. Now there are several vacant positions, and the staff is in a state of panic."

She paused, observing Shu Zi's reaction, and continued:

"Also, I heard that the internal audit and compliance departments have been very active lately, digging up a lot of old issues."

"Judging from this situation... the company is going to undergo a major purge, and they're serious about it."

Lan Manwen tentatively began, "You said last time..."

Shu Zi shook her head, interrupting her:

"We haven't even made a move yet. I guess Liang Qiming guessed it himself and was afraid we would make the first move, so he decided to clean up his own mess and make a statement first."

Lan Manwen suddenly realized, nodded, and didn't discuss the topic anymore. After all, no matter how the higher-ups changed, it wouldn't affect her level.

"What about those resources..."

"Let's see," Shu Zi chimed in. "If it's offered to us, we shouldn't refuse it, but we have to be careful. We can't accept a mountain of gold if it's not suitable. Sister Wen, you should check it out first."

"Okay, I understand."

Lan Manwen looked at the screen again. "There's nothing else here. The stylist has been urging us several times. Hurry up and go over there. After you're done, grab something to eat and head out. It's getting late."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Shu Zi got up, stretched, and said, "I'll probably have to stay up all night. I'm going to grab something to eat first."

"The light meal has been placed in dressing room number 3."

"Sister Wen is the best!"

Shu Zi grinned and leaned in to touch him, but Lan Manwen pushed her away with a look of disgust.

"Get out of here."

"Yes, ma'am!" Shu Zi grinned and made a quick getaway.

Outside, Fang Zhizi was pretending to work while holding a tablet, her ears perked up.

As soon as Shu Zi came out, he immediately came over, looked her up and down, lowered his voice, and looked at her with great curiosity:

"Sister Zizi, Sister Zizi, someone from President Liang's side just came over... Are you alright? What did they talk about for so long?"

"How do you know you're one of General Manager Liang's men?"

Fang Zhizi pointed to her eyes with one finger and towards the elevator with the other: "Sister Zizi, I'm actually quite good at guessing."

Shu Zi laughed it off, "It's nothing, what could have happened? We just chatted for a bit."

Shu Zi patted her head, "Come on, come with me to get my hair and makeup done, and while we're at it, we'll finish off the delicious food your sister Wen ordered for me, I'm starving."

"Okay!"

Upon hearing about food, Fang Zhizi immediately followed along eagerly.

Never mind, let's eat first!

……

At exactly eight o'clock in the evening, a gentle sea breeze was blowing, the night sky was as dark as ink, and the sound of waves could be faintly heard in the distance.

The outdoor recording site was a play of light and shadow, with a wooden platform extending towards the dark sea.

Several cameras were operating silently, their red lights flashing.

The number of viewers in the live stream has already exceeded ten million, and the chat is scrolling wildly.

[First! First!]

[It's here! Episode 2!]

[Ahhh, Gu Yan! Shu Zi!]

Finally, I've been waiting for you~ I'm so glad I didn't give up~

[The scenery is absolutely gorgeous today! A bonfire and chat by the sea!]

Where is Gu Yan? Where is Shu Zi? Where is my Aci?!

【My darling Tongtong, here I come! You'll definitely look stunning tonight!】

Can Fang Yutong's fans please be quiet? Their idol is already two-timing them, and they're still here!

[Get out, you troll upstairs! You're the one who's two-timing! Our Tongtong got on the show based on her talent!]

Will Yu Shize be so embarrassed today that he'll dig a dream castle out of his toes?

[Shen Yihuai and Han Jingxue are locked in for me! I'm just waiting for them to get back together tonight!]

[Jiang Yunyou, little brother, look at your sister! Su Yanhuan, the adorable little cutie, has her mom here!]

On site, the executive director whispered into the walkie-talkie: "Ten seconds countdown, prepare the passage, enter in order."

The first person to enter was Shen Yihuai.

He walked in under the lights, his pace unhurried, wearing a midnight blue velvet suit with a black shirt underneath, and no tie.

He walked up to the main camera, nodded slightly, and parted his thin lips, "Good evening, Shen Yihuai."

His gaze lingered for a moment on the already arranged seating area before he walked to the set of dark brown leather sofas on the left, sat down in an outer single seat, crossed his long legs, and adopted a composed posture.

[Shen Yihuai~~~Hehehe, this introduction is the same familiar formula, bringing back memories of the first episode!]

Midnight blue is so sophisticated, it suits him so well, I want it! Bro... wait, I mean, do you need a girlfriend?!

[Han Jie: ? Are you pretending I don't exist? ? ? ]

[But, Ms. Shen, could you secretly tell me how far you and Sister Han have progressed in these past seven days? I promise I won't tell anyone!!!]

The second person to enter was Han Jingxue.

She appeared in a dark green satin off-shoulder dress with a high slit that subtly revealed her long legs as she walked. Her long hair was styled in retro finger waves, her red lips were striking, and she wore tassel diamond earrings.

As she stepped onto the platform, her dress shimmered softly under the lights. Upon seeing Shen Yihuai, she didn't stop, but instead smiled faintly at the camera, her red lips curving into a gentle smile.

Good evening, I am Han Jingxue.

She chose the set of off-white velvet curved sofas on the right and sat down in the position facing the campfire, separated from Shen Yihuai by the firelight and a distance of several meters.

"Good evening, Han Jingxue." This self-introduction is quite similar to Shen Yihuai's "Shen Yihuai"—both are so brief and aloof (doge).

[Han Jie's outfit is stunning! Dark green paired with red lips, a retro Hong Kong style beauty! She exudes confidence and charisma! Wow!]

[Wow! Those legs, that waist, that figure! Goddess Nuwa, how can you sleep? I certainly can't!!!]

[Han Jie is so beautiful! Han Jie is so beautiful! Han Jie is so beautiful! If all else fails, consider me! (pokes hand)]

The third person to enter was Jiang Yunyou.

A white peak lapel suit paired with a light gray shirt exudes a youthful energy with a touch of formality.

He waved with a smile, revealing his signature canine teeth: "Hello everyone, it feels like ages since we last met! I'm Jiang Yunyou!"

As he spoke, he naturally walked over to Shen Yihuai and sat down on the other side of the sofa, leaving a polite empty seat between them.

"Good evening, Teacher Shen!" he greeted with a smile.

Shen Yihuai tilted his head and nodded. "Good evening."

[Youbao looks like a prince in his white suit!]

[That peaked lapel is so cool, it gives off a mature vibe.]

[She's sitting next to Shen Yihuai; the two handsome guys are in the same frame.]

My younger brother is dressed very formally today; he seems to be taking this very seriously.

He didn't have much screen time in the first episode, so give him more opportunities this time!

Next up is Su Yanhuan.

She wore a cherry pink strapless tulle mini dress with a crystal bow at the waist.

She practically skipped onto the stage, her chestnut-brown curly hair tied in a high ponytail, a radiant smile on her face: "Hi everyone, good evening! I'm Su Yanhuan!"

She glanced at the seating area, her eyes lit up, and she went straight to Han Jingxue's seat. Before she even sat down, she covered her mouth, her expression incredibly exaggerated:

"Wow! Sister Han, you look absolutely stunning today! This dark green outfit makes your skin look so fair! What an amazing dress! Absolutely incredible!"

Han Jingxue burst out laughing at her exaggerated acting and "Shu Zishi's exaggerated expressions and tone":

"It's quite beautiful, but you..."

She paused, then said with a hint of sarcasm, "Learn less of what's good, and only learn superficial things."
