Yuan Shu sneered. This sly person finally revealed his ulterior motive. In the end, it turned out that he had designs on Yuan An.

It seemed that Yuan Shu’s guess was right. Not only did this person behind the scenes arrange for Chu Mei, but he also interfered in Yuan An’s business. While Shi Xiao wasn’t in the country, he carried out his plans boldly.

Yuan Shu wasn’t in the mood to continue listening. Although there was a smile on her lips, her gaze was distant and cold. “Mr. Xu, that’s all for today. I still have something on, so I’ll take my leave first.”

Before Xu Lang could say anything, Yuan Shu had already gotten up and walked towards the stairs. After taking two steps, she suddenly turned around and said with a smile, “Shi Yi’s design is up to her to decide. I won’t interfere, but I will definitely support her. Mr. Xu, you should focus on this instead.”

The threat in his words was clear. It also made Xu Lang realize that Yuan Shu wouldn’t compromise just because of Yushu Buyi.

Xu Lang picked up the coffee and shook it gently. Then, he took a sip. His gaze turned cold and he smiled disdainfully.

The Jiang family had spent so much effort on Yuan Shu, since they thought that Yuan Shu was easy to manipulate and that if they sent her to the Shi family, she would be a great help to them. Unexpectedly, she was so different from what the rumors said she was like. The Jiang family had shot themselves in the foot this time!

As Yuan Shu sat in the car, sge immediately began to check the contact list of her cell phone. Indeed, there was a cell phone number with the name Yushu Buyi. It was probably that of the old man left behind by her mother. Currently, he probably had the position of General Manager.

Without hesitation, she made a call.

Currently, Yushu Buyi was having an internal strife. In the General Manager’s office, Shen Yi was arguing with Duan Yan.

“Mrs. Yuan, it’s completely against the rules for you to misappropriate the company’s funds.”

Shen Yi was a chubby man in his forties and was only 1.75 meters tall. His face was fair and flushed, and he had big eyes on his round face.

He was an honest person, so how could he win against the unreasonable Duan Yan?

Not only had Duan Yan been coming to the factory to cause trouble recently, but she had also misappropriated the fabric that needed to be delivered. As a result, they couldn’t submit the order at all. Shen Yi was already worried about this matter, but now, Duan Yan was here to ask for the company’s money.

Shen Yi was so angry that he started arguing with Duan Yan.

Duan Yan stroked her freshly permed hair as she looked at Shen Yi with disdain. “This is our family’s company. What’s wrong with me taking some money from my family? Don’t think that just because you’re the general manager of Yushu Buyi, this company is yours. Don’t criticize me!”

Duan Yan disliked Shen Yi.

For so many years, if it were not for Shen Yi’s interference, Yushu Buyi would have become her company long ago. It wouldn’t have ended up in Yuan Shu’s hands after Yuan Shu became an adult.

Recently, the Yuan Corporation was short of money and sold everything they could sell. Duan Yan called Yuan Shu and asked her to get money for the family, but she was unwilling, so Duan Yan could only plan for herself and try to get as much money as she could.

Duan Yan’s concept of financial management was that money could only be called money if it was in her pocket.

Thus, she went to Yushu Buyi’s factory and took away the most expensive piece of fabric. Then, she resold it to other fabric factories. Needless to say, she earned a large sum of money.

Now, Duan Yan was here to check the accounts and withdraw 500,000 yuan from the company’s account. That was the company’s entire liquid funds, so how could Shen Yi agree?

Moreover, if he couldn’t hand over the fabric from the Xu family’s haute couture shop, the compensation for the breach of contract would be much more than 500,000 yuan!

When Shen Yi heard Duan Yan’s words, he was so angry that his face flushed. He pointed at her and said with agitation, “You…” For a long time, he couldn’t finish the sentence.

Coincidentally, the phone rang. Shen Yi picked up the phone and saw that it was Miss Yuan, who had never cared about Yushu Buyi’s business. Instantly, he had a target to vent his grievance, so he picked up the call..
