Transmigrated as a vicious stepmother, I raised a child who became a heartthrob.

Jiang Ji seemed to be easily embarrassed, and her face turned red again.

He looked at his mother carefully, and she didn't seem very angry. Only then did he completely relax. He hadn't slept well last night and had nightmares about his mother abandoning him.

"I'll download a navigation app for your phone, and also a parent-child location tracking feature."

You can't guard against thieves forever. Jiang Ji will eventually leave this neighborhood and wander around. Jiang Zhuhua can't possibly keep him tied to his side.

All I can say is to teach him.

Jiang Ji had learned his lesson and had put his phone in his pocket early in the morning. Hearing this, he immediately took his phone out.

Jiang Zhuhua patiently explained to him how to use the navigation system.

Jiang Ji was very smart; he understood after only two explanations. He even demonstrated how to navigate to Jiang Zhuhua's company and his kindergarten.

"Okay. Let's eat something and then go to sleep."

Jiang Zhuhua simply let the matter drop.

Not long after he arrived at the company, Wang Xianghai came in from outside, still damp.

"Boss, we've found the person who slashed the tires yesterday. Someone was behind it."

Wang Xianghai dismissed his assistant, leaving only the two of them in the office.

"It's Golden Phoenix Entertainment, Yang Fei."

The name sounded so familiar that Jiang Zhuhua remembered it almost immediately.

The collaboration with Zhang Wuling was arranged through him.

"The person who scratched the tires was just a junior employee of their company. Yang Fei paid him."

The employee was initially unwilling to talk, but Wang Xianghai told him directly.

“We have plenty of money and time. Once you go in, your life will be stained. You may not care, but think about whether your child will take the civil service exam in the future. You graduated from a good university, so you should know that some factories don't want people with blemishes. Some jobs are only for people with clean records.”

The junior employee insisted at the police station that no one had instructed him, only claiming he was resentful of the wealthy. Since there were no unexplained transfer records, the matter was dropped. They were simply asked if they wanted to appeal or take other measures.

Wang Xianghai used coercion and enticement to extract information from the other party.

"Find an employee to water his money tree."

When the feud began, Jiang Zhuhua had checked the other party's information. The other party was quite superstitious and kept several money trees in the company.

"You must pour boiling water first, then ice water."

Jiang Zhuhua emphasized this point.

"know."

This wasn't the first time he'd done something like this; the last time he'd replaced his business partner's dishes with cold dishes. Wang Xianghai was practically an expert at it.

The office door closed again. Jiang Zhuhua pondered for a moment; the collaboration had been finalized some time ago. Filming had already begun.

To cause trouble at this time, especially at such a sensitive juncture, makes it hard to say whether members of the Jiang family might be involved.

The assistant who accompanied Wang Xianghai came to report on work, mainly about the allocation of company resources.

"Here's a task for you: find someone to water the Jiang family's money tree."

Jiang Zhuhua tapped his pen, signaling his assistant to put the documents down.

Isn't that a coincidence? Jiang Xingjia isn't the only superstitious person in this circle. He's quite superstitious himself.

"Okay, Mr. Jiang."

The assistant was a little confused, but then she remembered the jokes she'd seen online. So this is what business warfare is all about.

"I'll tell Assistant Wang to give you some money. Go out for tea with your friends from other places, and take a few hours off today."

Jiang Zhuhua's tone was full of implications.

The assistant understood and nodded.

"I happen to have a few friends who want to meet me."

That was settled. However, he seemed to lack experience.

This incident became a trending topic that very day. The trending topic's name was particularly embarrassing.

Is this what real, unpretentious business warfare is like?

What a despicable business war!

Why is my money tree smoking?

Jiang Zhuhua, his face dark, opened a trending topic. The accompanying video showed a money tree emitting white smoke. A person was furtively carrying a kettle of hot water, watering the money tree.

Behind him, another money tree was also emitting smoke.

"Assistant Wang, is the assistant you hired a bit dim-witted?"

Jiang Zhuhua exhaled a deep breath, feeling as if he were flickering in the underworld.

The topic had been spontaneously pushed to the top by the public, and Wang Xianghai naturally saw it as well.

“He’s never done anything like this before; he just graduated from school not long ago.”

Wang Xianghai managed a weak explanation. Now the whole world knows they watered someone's money tree.

"I'll also post about them scratching my tires online."

What's wrong with watering a money tree? You guys even maliciously scratched my tires.

What can Jiang Zhuhua do? At this point, it's too late to remove the trending topic. Besides, there are many people online just watching for fun.

Of course, we should desperately expose the other party's shameful deeds.

Following the ethical issues, the two companies' despicable and dirty business battles attracted everyone's attention.

Jiang Zhuhua thought about it for a moment, but he was still not entirely at ease.

[Director Zhang, I've recently had some conflicts with various parties. Please keep an eye on the set.]

After all, this film will be quite profitable once it's released. The company needs a significant cash injection to facilitate its continued expansion.

[Okay. Everything's normal on set.]

Filming this movie didn't require going to some remote mountain forest. Zhang Wuling naturally saw what was trending on social media.

"Assistant Wang, remind the artists below, as well as their agents, to keep a low profile. Don't let anyone find any evidence against them."

Jiang Zhuhua knew very well that the Jiang family was petty and narrow-minded. After causing such a big trouble at the birthday party, they would definitely try their best to find dirt on her and put it online, attempting to bring down her company and leave her homeless.

Li Jiao, you promised me, don't forget.

Jiang Zhuhua needed to make thorough preparations himself, and at the same time, he also needed to remind the original instigator. Li Jiao had promised to help resolve the trouble.

[We know they're digging into their building materials scandal.]

Li Jiao replied to the message very quickly, as if she were guarding her phone.

Jiang Zhuhua was slightly relieved.

These things may not seem like much, but there are many twists and turns involved. For example, some celebrities are not so clean, so they need to submit a report in advance so that the company can make public relations preparations.

Some minor artists are fine, but the real problem is the company's backbone, whose dirty secrets are exposed.

The work continued until very late. The entire company was in a state of high tension, with everyone striving to avoid making any mistakes.

As night fell, everyone was busy working.

Your son is with me.
