Chapter 2119: Building up a Good Reputation Wasn’t Easy

Although the profits of the Huaxin store were still not comparable to the others, it was becoming more prosperous with each passing day.

The days seemed to fly by.

Ning Shu checked up on the Tang family’s situation from time to time and was relieved to see Tang Yu was still doing poorly.

Tang Yu was plagued by scandals: word first got out about him having a relationship with his adopted daughter. The existence of kinship, even in the legal sense, cast a greater shadow over the relationship.

Then the news broke about what he had done to his underaged, adopted daughter.

Such sex scandals were incredibly eye-catching and remained popular topics of discussion among the public.

Tang Yu’s current standing was not good.

Building up a good reputation wasn’t easy, it took years of work. But it only took a few minutes to destroy that same reputation.

Her task was almost complete.

When the company held a meeting, Ning Shu could also attend it as the manager of the Huaxin market. In the past, the decisions made by the company had nothing to do with the Huaxin market.

Her attendance indicated that the company finally included the Huaxin market in its decision-making scope.

Since Ning Shu and Wen Ermei crossed paths regularly at the company, verbal attacks against one another were a common occurrence.

Ning Shu didn’t bother staying in the company offices for extended periods, preferring to spend more effort on managing the Huaxin market.

By demonstrating value, she ensured she wouldn’t be so casually married off by Father Wen to some hedonistic son with rich parents.

Ning Shu still asked the private detective to pay attention to the Tang family’s affairs, especially those of Tang Yu and Bai Feifei.

Therefore it didn’t take long for Ning Shu to receive confirmation of Bai Feifei’s apparent miscarriage.

Ning Shu: Pfff, cough cough…

Bai Feifei was only sixteen years old.

Those guys could really play.

Just because they were young, and they seriously had no restraint.

Their relationship was built on the ruined lives of others. Did they have nightmares when they fell asleep beside each other?

Tang Yu’s frequent scandals had caused the Tang family’s stock to plummet. As the head of the company, how could he convince others to invest if his own image was tarnished?

As for Bai Feifei…she perfectly embodied the abused heroine stereotype. The hero abused her and she then abused herself because of her negative self-image. As though self-harm would reduce the shame she felt.

Ning Shu really didn’t understand it. In troubled times, if you didn’t take good care of yourself, how would you have the energy to solve the problems you were facing?

Under the pressure of the company’s shareholders, Tang Yu’s father had to revoke Tang Yu’s position as president and let someone more capable take the position.

But the company’s turbulent state meant that whoever took over would face a great deal of challenges.

Tang Yu had a lot of time to be happy with Bai Feifei now that he had resigned.

When she liked and loved him, he abused her heart. Now that he liked and loved her, he abused her body. Because if he couldn’t win her heart, he could still take her body.

Ning Shu asked the private detective to stop giving her updates on the couple. Just listening to them exhausted Ning Shu.

She was more than ready to leave this world. She was anxious to go back and see what happened to the two pearls.

But she didn’t know where 2333 had gone.

“2333, what’s going on?” Ning Shu called out to her system.

2333 did not respond.

“Frick. 2333, are you dead? If you’re not, at least make a peep,” Ning Shu shouted again.

Ning Shu’s fist hit the ground. What was happening?

She had waited and waited for 2333 to tell her it was time to leave this world.

She was in a constant state of concern, thinking that there could be problems with the system space.

But Ning Shu didn’t just wait around until 2333 spoke up. When there was nothing else to do, she started traveling.

Because the Huaxin store was making a profit, Ning Shu got dividends. She had money in her pocket so she could buy whatever she wanted, go wherever she wanted, and eat whatever she wanted.

It was awesome!

Father Wen still wanted to marry Ning Shu to someone. Ning Shu said indifferently, “Fine, I’ll get married. I can make an unprofitable store profitable. No matter who I marry, I will be the wife of a prosperous husband.”
