"Second Young Master, you're still awake?" Su Chenxi asked awkwardly. Could this guy have been waiting for her all along?

She had just changed into slippers, but the pain in her feet still made it difficult for her to walk.

"What happened to your foot?" the man asked, squinting.

Since he was concerned, Su Chenxi poured out her pent-up anger, "Don't even mention it. My previous suppliers went on strike and canceled my orders. I spent the whole day looking for new suppliers, and my feet are blistered."

Shen Yanchuan's lips curled up slightly, not out of sympathy for her, but because he found the woman's pitiful state amusing.

"If you can't keep doing this, then quit. I can support you," the man scoffed.

Su Chenxi turned her head and looked at him in surprise, then retorted, "I don't want you to support me anyway, we're getting a divorce in a year."

Shen Yanchuan stood up. "Whatever you want, but starting tonight, you must be home before 10 PM."

Su Chenxi glared at him sullenly. She had already had a rough night, and now he was interfering with her time to go home.

"I'll try my best, but I might not be able to do it," Su Chenxi said, trying to persuade herself.

The man turned to her coldly and stared at her. "You must prioritize being my wife. If you can't, we'll get a divorce right now."

Su Chenxi's beautiful eyes widened in surprise, "You're threatening me!"

Shen Yanchuan sneered, "As far as I know, the Jiang family has asked the Shen family for several projects. If we get divorced, the Jiang family will surely perish."

Su Chenxi gritted her teeth in anger. Under the light, even if his face was handsome, she had no interest in appreciating it.

"Fine, I promise I'll be home before 10 o'clock, okay?" Su Chenxi reluctantly compromised.

The man then hummed with satisfaction and went upstairs.

After taking a shower and lying in bed, Su Chenxi searched for Xia Xiaomeng's name and found her latest news: the Shen Group's grand wedding next week, with Xia Xiaomeng as the chosen bride.

In other words, starting next week, Xia Xiaomeng will be the eldest daughter-in-law of the Shen family.

Her revenge against her is about to begin—no, it has already begun.

This clothing company is her dream and the culmination of her three years of hard work; she won't give up so easily.

The next morning, Su Chenxi left without even having breakfast. In front of the restaurant's floor-to-ceiling windows, a man, engrossed in his coffee and elegantly sipping tea, gazed at the direction where the car's taillights disappeared, his expression complex.

"You're a workaholic, just like Second Young Master!" Zhou Youchen joked.

Shen Yanchuan asked in a deep voice, "How did things go?"

"Second Young Master, our people have taken control of that pilot from back then, but we need to go through the procedures to extradite him back to China for interrogation. This will inevitably alert Shen Yaorong."

A cold glint flashed in Shen Yanchuan's eyes. "It's time to settle accounts with him."

“Shen Yaorong will definitely try every means to kill this pilot to silence him, so we need to act quickly,” Zhou Youchen said.

"It's time for a showdown."

"Second Young Master, due to this stock market crash, Shen Yaoyang will soon sell 10% of his shares to liquidate his positions. You will soon own 32% of the shares in Shen's Group. If the Old Madam is willing to transfer 10% to your name, along with the transfers from the other three shareholders, you will become the largest shareholder of Shen's Group at the next board meeting."

"This is the day I've been waiting for." A ruthless glint flashed in Shen Yanchuan's eyes. He would take back what his father had lost back then.

……

Su Chenxi entered the conference room with a cup of coffee, and her subordinates were all waiting for her with panda eyes.

"Thank you all for your hard work, but we can't let our guard down yet. Last night we found two manufacturers willing to cooperate. Let's keep up the good work."

"Mr. Su, we have contacted three more small manufacturers, and we can go and talk to them today."

"Alright, everyone get ready to go."

Industrial park in the suburbs.

Su Chenxi looked out at the farmland. This was already a very remote industrial area. She was forced to come to this area to find factories, which were almost all small-scale and had extremely poor environments.

"President Su, don't worry, we'll definitely get through this," her assistant Tang Shan reassured her.

Su Chenxi nodded. "Yes, we must get through this."

The conversation lasted until 8 p.m., and the boss kindly offered them a place to stay at a nearby hotel. A cold male voice echoed in Su Chenxi's mind, "You must be home before 10 p.m."

"Excuse me, Mr. Liu, I have to go back."

"President Su, it's so late, why don't you stay here?" Tang Shan and Xiao Yang were both tired and didn't want to go back to the city.

Su Chenxi said to the two of them, "You two stay here and wait for Boss Liu to bring the finished product sample back to the company tonight. I'll head back first."

"Mr. Su, it's 9 p.m. now. It will take at least an hour and a half to get back to the city. Can you drive?" Xiao Yang asked worriedly.

"Of course, no problem." Su Chenxi was unsure, but Shen Yanchuan threatened her with divorce, so she couldn't refuse.

Ten minutes later, as Su Chenxi drove along a narrow road surrounded by farmland, she regretted it.

But we're already on the road, so we can't turn back. Let's cheer up and keep driving!

A beam of high beams shone from ahead, and Su Chenxi was completely blinded. On the already narrow two-lane road, seeing the large truck almost crashing into her, she swerved the steering wheel sharply.

Suddenly, the car beneath my feet flew off the road and drove straight into the farmland next to it.

"Ah!" Su Chenxi exclaimed in surprise.

The car headlights illuminated a flooded rice paddy, and her car drove straight into the middle of it.

Su Chenxi clung to the steering wheel, on the verge of tears, finally understanding that when you're down on your luck, even drinking water can cause problems.

She had to call for help.

Who can I ask for help?

Su Chenxi sat in the car, deep in thought. Her assistant Tang Shan and her subordinate Xiao Yang? But they had to be there tonight to oversee the sampling, and she needed to get the samples tomorrow!

With a determined look, Su Chenxi dialed her husband Shen Yanchuan's number, just to give it a try.

"Hello!" came the indifferent male voice on the other end, as always.

"Could you come and rescue me?" Su Chenxi asked calmly.

"What happened to you?"

"My car drove into the rice paddy, and now I'm stuck inside and can't get out."

Silence on the other end, "..."

The other party probably had never heard of such an absurd thing.

"Location!" the man coldly uttered.

"I'll send it to you! It's just that I live a bit far from the city center." Su Chenxi smiled awkwardly.

When the other party hung up the phone, Su Chenxi clearly heard an annoyed sigh.

Su Chenxi shared her location, opened the car window, and heard a chorus of frogs all around. She simply turned off the engine, reclined the car seat, and lay down to wait for rescue.

An hour later, three imposing black SUVs drove up and stopped on the side of the road in the lane near where Su Chenxi was.

Hearing the noise, Su Chenxi opened her sleepy eyes and looked at the three SUVs. The doors opened, and two tall bodyguards got out.

In the back seat of the second car, the door opened and a black figure stepped out, the headlights illuminating his cold, hard facial features.

Su Chenxi's beautiful eyes widened in shock. Shen Yanchuan?

Is he here too?
