Ji Chiqian stood in front of the photo wall, silent and without saying a word.

Looking back on those glorious years, he felt a strange sense of melancholy.

Zhao Gao walked over and said, "Back then, we were the ones who built this team from scratch. Your family didn't approve of it and even cut off your financial support. We were so poor back then, I never imagined we'd get to where we are today."

Ji Chiqian turned his head away: "I can't remember."

"Yeah, how could I forget about that? You lost your memory. I was like you were in a TV drama, with amnesia."

As soon as Zhao Gao finished speaking, he felt a cold gaze. He quickly changed his words: "I was just joking. Look at you, you're taking it seriously. You weren't like this before."

Ji Chiqian looked at Zhao Gao with a half-smile: "You really think you can fool me just because I don't remember anything?"

Doesn't he understand his own personality from before?

Zhao Gao laughed: "I don't think your condition is serious, but what about Miss Lu's matter? Do you think it's feasible?"

"I don't know about that. You should talk to her yourself. After all, it was you who wanted to sign her, and it was you who offended her."

Zhao Gao immediately felt a headache coming on: "Wasn't I just standing up for you?"

Ji Chiqian smiled enigmatically: "Let me tell you, that woman is quite vengeful and very difficult to deal with. You'd better watch yourself."

He left after he finished speaking.

Zhao Gao chased after him, saying, "Don't go! This matter isn't over yet."

But Ji Chiqian didn't turn around at all.

Zhao Gao was furious: "You have no conscience! How did I get to where I am with you all this time!"

At this moment, the office director walked over and asked, "Manager Zhao, how's the poaching going?"

"Smoothly my ass!"

Zhao Gao was in a bad mood. He had offended someone, and now he was in trouble.

"Manager Zhao, Liu Jie wants to talk to you about leaving."

Zhao Gao looked over and said, "He's still leaving? Let him in. This kid hasn't resolved his inner conflict yet."

Liu Jie walked into the office and looked at Zhao Gao: "Manager Zhao, I want to leave."

"You little brat, are you really that afraid of your cousin? I know he's always bullying you with his gang, but I just want to see if you can get through this. After all, the esports team is a workplace too. If you don't stand up for yourself, you'll get bullied even if you go to work outside."

Liu Jie looked at Zhao Gao in shock. So he knew about the bullying he was experiencing?

Zhao Gao continued, "Now that things have come to this, if you want to live your life as a coward and run away, then I won't stop you. But since you're leaving, don't you want to vent your anger?"

Zhao Gao patted Liu Jie on the shoulder and walked out of the office.

The office director chimed in, "Manager Zhao, are we really going to let him go? Didn't you bring Liu Qi in in the first place precisely to train this kid?"

"Well, it's come to an end now, let's see what he does. If he really can't pull it together, there's nothing we can do."

Zhao Gao looked at the sky: "But I have more important things to do now."

"Manager Zhao, I've inquired about Ms. Lu's background. I heard she returned from abroad and is quite famous. There's no way she would give up everything she has now to play video games, right?"

Zhao Gao shook his head: "That's not right. There's no one I can't recruit, especially a genius like this."

Zhao Gao is now preoccupied with poaching people.

After Lu Ning left, her mood improved considerably.

She never expected that she had such a high level of talent.

Did she really learn the legendary twelve-hit combo just by watching it?

Is she really that outstanding?

Lu Ning went straight to a beauty salon and had a facial while lying down.

Soon, Lu Ning's phone rang. She glanced at it and answered, "Hello, who is this?"

"Miss Lu, it's me, Manager Zhao."

"Oh, Manager Zhao."

Lu Ning was overjoyed; she had never thought she'd have such a day!

When I was abroad, I always doubted my abilities and felt like I couldn't do anything well.

Who would have thought she would be so amazing after returning to China?

She's more popular in China.

At this point, Lu Ning had made up her mind to stay here.

She didn't want to be a useless person being supported by her brothers.

"Ms. Lu, we didn't quite get to the point about the design today, so let's have a meal together sometime."

Lu Ning knew that Zhao Gao hadn't approached her to discuss design matters, but rather to recruit her to his team.

She pretended not to know and said, "Okay then."

"Okay, as long as Miss Lu agrees, then let's do it tomorrow. I'll choose the location, and Miss Lu can just come over."

"Ok."

Lu Ning hung up the phone immediately. Ah, that felt so good.

She looked at her hands with suspicion, wondering if she really was a genius.

After getting her beauty treatment, Lu Ning even went to pick up the little cutie from school.

But as soon as she got off the bus, an old woman ran up to her and pleaded, "Please, please let my son go! Our whole family is counting on him. If he gets fired, we'll have no choice but to jump off a building!"

Lu Ning saw the old woman and said, "Don't come begging me, it has nothing to do with me."

"How can it not concern you?"

The old lady said anxiously, "Wasn't it because of your daughter that he retaliated against our family and caused my son to lose his job? Isn't it enough for me to kneel down and apologize to you now?"

The old woman knelt on the ground, surrounded by many people watching.

Some people pointed and whispered, "Why make someone so old kneel?"

"Yes, young lady, talk things out. She's so old, don't take it personally with an old person."

Lu Ning felt a little angry when she heard these words. She looked down at the old lady and realized that she was being morally blackmailed.

Lu Ning stood still. After the old woman finished crying, she realized something was wrong and looked up at Lu Ning.

Lu Ning said with a half-smile, "Are you tired of crying? I think your acting skills are good enough to develop in the entertainment industry."

The old woman gritted her teeth and stood up, saying, "You're heartlessly trying to drive our family to the brink of despair."

The people around them were pointing and saying increasingly unpleasant things.

At this moment, Ji Chiqian got out of the car and walked over. He looked at the old lady and said, "Your son was fired because he was involved in embezzling public funds, and he was also involved in multiple crimes such as secretly searching for kickbacks and leaking company secrets."

Upon hearing this, the old lady rolled her eyes and said, "You're talking nonsense. My son isn't like that. He was fired because he offended this woman."

After hearing this, the people around changed their tune.

The old lady immediately plopped down on the ground: "Our family has no power or influence. They are rich people. What crime can they possibly frame us with? It's just a matter of a word."

Lu Ning turned her head to look at Ji Chiqian: "Forget it, there's no point in talking to someone who's being so unreasonable."

“It really doesn’t make any sense, so I’ve already called the police.”

Ji Chiqian looked at the old woman: "Your son embezzled so much money, but the money in his account doesn't match up. We've already found out that he gave you the embezzled funds."

The old lady's expression changed drastically.
