Best friend turned enemy? Marrying the villain, if she runs, I'll run too.

Manager Lü, whose name was called out, was dumbfounded.

He never dreamed that his painstaking efforts to please Fu Jishu would not only fail to bring him a promotion and a raise, but also prevent him from reaching the pinnacle of his life.

In the end, he even got fired. Anyone would be stunned by this unexpected turn of events.

"President Fu, I didn't allow 'The Wrongful Conspiracy' to be filmed in Changlu before, but it was only for the sake of Ruifeng Group. That's because the director of the show has ties with Baishi Group, so I made that decision."

"I absolutely did not bully Miss Li. Please, please give me another chance. I have worked at Changlu for so many years, always working hard and never making a mistake."

“I made a mistake, and I will go back and rectify it immediately. I will arrange for ‘The Wrongful Conviction’ to film in Changlu right away. Mr. Fu, can you give me another chance?”

But to his surprise, instead of getting a chance to reform, Fu Jishu just looked at him with the eyes of someone looking at a dead man.

"You may not have heard me clearly, but I said that from this day forward, Ruifeng Group will never hire you again."

This is a permanent ban, which is much more serious than being fired.

Ruifeng Group's business extends beyond Jiangcheng to various industries throughout China.

Fu Jishu's seemingly simple statement was actually a complete ban across the entire industry and all sectors.

Manager Lü will no longer have any business opportunities related to Ruifeng Group.

Now, Manager Lü seemed to have his soul ripped out, and he was no longer the arrogant person he had been when he drove Li Su and the others out of Changlu Film City.

He collapsed to the ground, his eyes vacant.

Immediately afterward, Assistant Yan stepped forward and delivered the fatal blow.

"Lu Jiye, during your tenure at Changlu Film and Television City, you abused your position to enrich yourself, accepted kickbacks, arranged positions for your relatives, and practiced nepotism."

"The total loss caused to Changlu Film City is as high as 15.8 million yuan. You have one week to pay off this deficit, otherwise you will spend the rest of your life in prison."

Assistant Yan presented everyone with documents detailing the shady dealings Manager Lü had done at Changlu Film City.

Now, not only Manager Lü, but all the other senior executives of Changlu Film City present were sweating profusely and restless.

Assistant Yan's next words caused the executives present to beg for mercy: "All those associated with Lü Jiye are on this list."

"The money you embezzled, like Lü Jiye's, must be returned within a week. After you leave here, go with Lü Jiye to the HR department to complete your resignation procedures."

So what was supposed to be a dinner party for flattery turned into a death trap for almost all the executives.

Looking at the executives who were begging for mercy and being ruthlessly dragged away by the bodyguards, Li Su understood.

He gritted his teeth and whispered in Fu Jishu's ear, "Actually, you didn't come here to eat at all today, but to settle accounts, right? You're just taking this opportunity to get rid of these parasites in the group?"

Even if Assistant Yan were incredibly resourceful, he couldn't possibly uncover the criminal activities of so many people in just one meal, let alone compile such a long list spanning several pages.

Fu Jishu, that sickly fellow, is truly extraordinary insidious and cunning.

"Mrs. Fu, you've wronged me! I risked my life for you, even at the cost of a hundred lives, but I did everything you said. Shouldn't I be rewarded?"

Li Su rolled her eyes at him. "Reward you my foot."

She got up nimbly from Fu Jishu. Anyway, she had achieved her goal. As for whether Fu Jishu wanted to get rid of these people from the beginning or something else, it was none of her business.

The warmth in his arms suddenly vanished, and Fu Jishu felt a sense of loss.

He also got up, wanting to catch up with Li Su.

Chu Weiwei, who had just recovered from the reversal, hurriedly stepped forward to explain: "President Fu, apart from this location scouting, I didn't know this Lü Jiye before."

"I had no idea he had done these things in private. Today's dinner was something Lu Jiye insisted on bringing me to. I'm really sorry for causing trouble for President Fu."

At this moment, Chu Weiwei was only thinking about severing all ties with Manager Lü as soon as possible, otherwise her drama would not be able to continue filming in Changlu.

If Chu Weiwei hadn't spoken up, Fu Jishu would have almost forgotten about her.

Li Su didn't rush to leave either. She stopped, crossed her arms, and raised her eyebrows, seemingly watching the show, but actually testing Fu Jishu.

If he fails the test, it won't be as simple as just kicking Fu Jishu out of bed and preventing him from sleeping.

Fu Jishu paused, his gaze falling on Chu Weiwei, but with obvious impatience.

"I almost forgot, Su Su's crew was kicked out of Changlu because you secretly tipped them off, right?"

Fu Jishu's "Su Su" startled Li Su for a moment.

This bastard has never called her that intimately before.

Chu Weiwei's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly explained, "That's not how it is. I just mentioned it casually when I was discussing cooperation with Lü Jiye, but I absolutely did not say anything bad about anyone."

"It was Lü Jiye who did those things to curry favor with you, President Fu. I truly had no idea..."

These petty tricks are utterly insignificant compared to Fu Jishu's skill.

Unfortunately, Du Xinyue, unaware of the situation, added, "Yes, President Fu, Director Chu is the kindest person. Everyone in our crew knows that. On the contrary, it's that director named Meng Tang."

"She always bullies others on set, and I was even forced to leave by her under such means. These things have spread online. Mr. Fu, you can check it out online."

To everyone's surprise, Fu Jishu gave him a cold look and said, "Did I ask you to speak?"

That piercing gaze sent a chill down Du Xinyue's spine. She had a feeling that if she dared to say another word, she would be the next one to be blacklisted.

Fu Jishu didn't waste any more words with those two idiots and directly gave instructions to Assistant Yan.

"None of the attractions under Ruifeng Group's projects will be open to Chu Weiwei's film crew."

Then he added, "Ms. Li Su's film crew gets free access to every tourist attraction they visit, and enjoys the highest level of service."

"Anyone who provides subpar service will be dismissed."

Assistant Yan replied crisply, "Yes, Mr. Fu."

Chu Weiwei stumbled, never expecting that after all her painstaking efforts, she would not only fail to gain any benefits, but would also be kicked out of the tourist attraction.

What's even more problematic is that Ruifeng Group owns several famous film and television cities, which are popular filming locations for various movies and TV series.

Fu Jishu's single sentence wiped out all her opportunities to film.

How can she continue filming this drama if this happens?

"Mr. Fu, please let me explain, it's not what you think..."
