Shu Baizhou suddenly raised his head, just about to breathe a sigh of relief, when he heard her continue:

"But I'm still very angry!"

"So, Comrade Shu Bozhou, I am now formally informing you that for the next two months, you will not be seeing your kind, beautiful, lovely, generous, dignified, gentle, intelligent, and understanding daughter!"

Shu Baizhou's lips twitched. The prefix was so long!

He tentatively asked, "...Two months is too long, can we get a discount? How about a week?"

Shu Zi looked at him expressionlessly.

Shu Baizhou immediately changed his answer: "Half a month?"

Shu Zi remained silent.

Shu Baizhou gritted his teeth: "...One month, no less!"

Shu Zi sneered, "Are you trying to bargain with me? Half a month, a month, it's two months, not a day less!"

She paused, then added:

"If you don't consult me ​​next time and just make decisions on your own, it won't just be two months since we last met."

"When the time comes, I'll replace all your Moutai with plain water, rearrange your chess scores according to pinyin, and replace all the golf clubs in your study with clotheslines!"

After saying that, she put on her sunglasses and walked away arrogantly.

Shu Baizhou: "..."

After Shu Zi left, Shu Baizhou remained silent for a while, then took out his phone, opened Lin Xueting's WeChat, and carefully typed a line of text:

"Honey, Nuonuo is angry with me, please put in a good word for me (begging)."

Click send.

The message has been sent, but the recipient has rejected it.

???

Shu Baizhou was stunned when he saw the red exclamation mark next to the message. What was going on? Had he been blocked?

Undeterred, he posted a few more messages.

"Wife?"

The message has been sent, but the recipient has rejected it.

"Honey?"

The message has been sent, but the recipient has rejected it.

Shu Baizhou: "..."

He stared at the red exclamation marks on the screen and remained silent for a long time.

He then opened Shu Wangjin's WeChat and tentatively sent a period (.").

No red exclamation mark! You can send it!

He had just prepared to type when a message popped up on the other end—

Dad: "Nuonuo is angry. Don't contact me or my daughter-in-law lately, and don't drag us into this. We're not close to you anymore. It's best if you just sleep at the company and don't come back!"

Shu Baizhou: "???"

The message has been sent, but the recipient has rejected it.

Shu Baizhou: "..."

He stared at yet another red exclamation mark on the screen and fell into a long silence.

Is this reasonable?

What was the purpose of his life?

Shu Zi walked out of the office in high heels, her steps were breezy, and with sunglasses on, she didn't care about anyone.

Just as I reached the elevator, Assistant Liu came out of the conference room next door. We bumped into each other, and I quickly greeted him.

"Miss Shu, are you leaving already?"

Shu Zi stopped and nodded slightly to him, her tone relaxed: "Yes, the matter is settled, I'm leaving."

Assistant Liu forced a smile and said, "Take care."

Shu Zi didn't say anything more and turned to enter the elevator.

As Liu Zhu watched the elevator doors close, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The chairman's expression seemed alright, so it appeared he was still alive.

He turned and strode quickly toward the chairman's office.

The corridor was silent for two seconds. Then, two heads peeked out from the adjacent break room and whispered to each other:

"Hey, did you see that woman who just walked by? She looked like that celebrity, Shu Zi..."

"What do you mean 'looks like'? It's her! I heard she's the chairman's daughter!"

"Really?!"

"It's probably true. Didn't you see Assistant Liu's attitude? He acted like he was meeting a leader."

No sooner had they finished speaking than a third head silently peeked out from behind them:

"What are you talking about?"

The two people turned around abruptly, startled, and almost jumped up:

"Oh my god! You scared me to death! How come you walk so quietly?!"

The man ignored their accusations and leaned closer in a low voice:

"I just passed by the chairman's office and I thought I heard someone being scolded inside..."

The two colleagues' eyes widened: "Get reprimanded? Who reprimanded whom? The chairman got reprimanded?"

"Shhh-keep it down."

The man held up one finger and looked around.

"But judging from the commotion, it seems the chairman was in the wrong and didn't dare to say a word back..."

The three exchanged a glance, silently shut their mouths, and retreated to their respective workstations.

The chairman of the prestigious Shu Group, a ruthless figure in the business world, was actually silenced by his own daughter's scolding.

This news is more shocking than any financial statement released today.

On the other side, Shu Zi put on sunglasses and a mask and walked briskly out of the elevator.

When the receptionist saw her come out, she immediately straightened her back and tried her best to maintain her professional demeanor, but the excitement in her eyes was almost overflowing.

Shu Zi walked to the front desk, took off her sunglasses, and smiled at her: "Thank you for your hard work."

The little girl nearly fainted on the spot, shaking her head frantically, her voice barely audible: "No, no, no, it's not hard at all!"

Shu Zi smiled again, put on her sunglasses, turned around and walked out the door.

The receptionist watched her figure disappear through the revolving doors, her eyes slightly reddening. She clasped her hands together in front of her chest and silently said to herself:

Baby, you must be happy, always surrounded by love, and always walk on a flower-lined path...

She took a deep breath, raised her hand to wipe the corner of her eye, and put on her professional smile again.

Shu Zi stepped out of the revolving door. Not far away, on the roadside, the window of a black minivan quietly rolled down a crack, and a telephoto lens silently aimed in her direction.

Click, click, click—several shots were taken in quick succession.

Not long after, a text message along with a photo was sent out.

Entertainment gossip every day V:

[Exclusive: Shu Zi appeared at the headquarters of the Shu Group, wearing sunglasses and a mask throughout, and seemed to be in a hurry, seemingly confirming the previous rumors of her identity as the "eldest daughter of the Shu Group".]

Was Fang Yutong's revelation about the "eldest daughter of the Shu family" on the show not unfounded? What exactly is the relationship between Shu Zi and the Shu Group? We await the parties involved' response.

[9 photos from the scene]

The Weibo post immediately caused an uproar in the comments section.

In the nine photos, Shu Zi is shown walking into the Shu Group, exiting through the revolving door, taking off her sunglasses and smiling at the front desk, putting her sunglasses back on and turning away, and finally getting into her car and driving away.

Every key moment was captured in crystal clarity.
