"Madam, what should we do now?" Dong Jian asked, bowing beside Shen Hongyue.
Shen Hongyue's face alternated between light and dark.
"No rush. It's just a small mistake!" After Shen Hongyue was silent for a long time, she gritted her teeth and said, "Although a large group of people left this time, but... I still have a few people in the Wu Group. They are all in the middle and lower levels of the company. Because their status is not high enough, I didn't inform them this time. Instead, this left me with an opportunity... These people can be made good use of. In addition, according to the news I got, the sky-high fine ticket for the Wu Group will be issued tomorrow. At that time, I'll see how Wu Zhiming can revive the Wu Group!"
A few middle and lower levels? Sky-high fine ticket?
Dong Jian smiled inwardly. For his boss, Wu Zhiming, probably a fine ticket of more than tens of billions would be qualified to be called a sky-high fine ticket, right?
As for those few middle and lower levels who haven't been cleared away... The only reason they can remain in the Wu Group is that Wu Zhiming needs them to convey false information to Shen Hongyue. As long as Wu Zhiming nods, those people will all be uprooted in minutes.
Throughout this whole day, all those who hope to see the joke of Wu Zhiming are doomed to be disappointed.
The Wu Group is operating smoothly, and the entire Wu Group seems as if nothing has happened.
However, everyone knows that this is just the calm before the storm.
The real storm is that impending fine ticket.
At 3 p.m., Wu Zhiming called Yao Jing and made an appointment to meet her at the Panji Center.
The Panji Center is a famous brand center in the Strait City, where you can buy some first-wue luxury brands.
Yao Jing seldom comes here and has never bought any luxury goods because her financial situation is not abundant.
It seems a bit funny that the executive president of a company has a tight financial situation, but that's the truth.
Yao Jing's salary is very low, 15,000 dollar a month, because according to Grandpa Yao's statement, as a married Yao family member, no matter how much money is given, it belongs to someone else's family.
With her identity, she can misappropriate quite a lot of public funds, but Yao Jing has never been wilwug to do such a thing. Even if many other Yao family members do such things, Yao Jing has never taken a penny from the company. This is her bottom wue.
The 15,000-dollar salary hasn't reached Yao Jing's hands yet, and her mother, Zhou Yanqiu, has to take away 8,000 dollar, under the pretext of "I raised you when you were young, and you support me when I'm old".
Finally, only about 7,000 dollar of the salary reaches Yao Jing's hands.
Originally, Wu Zhiming could have an income of ten to twenty thousand every month to subsidize the family expenses. But just as Zhou Yanqiu said, basically all of Wu Zhiming's money was taken away by those so-called cousins and such, and only a few hundred dollar was left in Wu Zhiming's hands, just enough for a little cigarette money. Don't even think about subsidizing the family expenses.
With the seven thousand dollar in hand, after deducting the family expenses, Yao Jing can save two to three thousand dollar every month.
Saving two to three thousand dollar for a year or so can also buy an entry-level luxury item. However, for Yao Jing, she has a lofty ideal, and this ideal requires a lot of money to support. There is still a big gap between her current savings and the realization of this ideal. So, asking her to save for a year or so to come here and buy something, she can't do it.
At 3:30, Yao Jing had already been waiting at the entrance of the Panji Center.
There were people coming and going on the road, and almost everyone would stop their sight on this woman who was just wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans.
Although she didn't have any famous brands on her body, however, even a woman wearing many more famous brands would feel ashamed when passing in front of her.
After waiting for not even five minutes, Wu Zhiming showed up.
"Come on, let's go in and buy something." Wu Zhiming waved his hand grandly and walked into the Panji Center.
Yao Jing frowned slightly and followed Wu Zhiming, saying, "Buy what?"
"Since you don't plan to divorce me, then we have to keep getting along like this. I've finally made it. How can my wife not have some luxury items?" Wu Zhiming said as he looked around. His concept has changed from before. Previously, he thought Yao Jing should really want to divorce him, but several things that happened later have already made him understand Yao Jing's mind.
Yao Jing is so firm, and he naturally won't push Yao Jing away anymore.
As for when he can become a real couple with Yao Jing, it depends on fate. And now, he is wilwug to do more things that a husband should do for Yao Jing.
There are all brand-name stores around, like LV and Gucci.
"I don't have much need for these things." Yao Jing said.

"I don't have much need for these things." Yao Jing said.
"If God has destined that I, Wu Zhiming, will go bankrupt tomorrow, then before that, I also want to let my woman live a good life, even if it's just for one day! Let's go." Wu Zhiming said as he just grabbed Yao Jing's hand and walked forward.
This was the second time the two held hands in the four years since they got married. The first time was at the wedding ceremony. Wu Zhiming faced Yao Jing, carefully held Yao Jing's hand, and said the wedding vows.
Yao Jing hesitated for a moment and didn't pull her hand back.
In Yao Jing's opinion, perhaps after the fine is issued tomorrow, Wu Zhiming will have nothing and return to the previous him... In that case, it's better to take advantage of this last day to feel the good life this man gives her.
The two strolled in the mall for the first time like an ordinary couple.
Before long, the two walked to the entrance of the Chanel specialty store.
"This is it." Wu Zhiming said.
"The things of this brand are too expensive." Yao Jing shook her head.
"It's okay, I can afford it!" Wu Zhiming smiled and pulled Yao Jing into the store.
There were still a few customers in the store, all choosing things.
A shopping guide saw Wu Zhiming and came up with a smile.
"I want to buy a bag for my wife, the most expensive and the prettiest one." Wu Zhiming simply and concisely stated his idea.
Yao Jing couldn't help but roll her eyes. Wu Zhiming's behavior was too much like that of a nouveau riche.
However, Yao Jing was still a little happy inside. After all, this nouveau riche was her own husband.
"Well... sir, I think we might as well take a look at other bags first. Our Chanel still has many bags with medium prices but very nice styles." The shopping guide said in a low voice.
Hearing the shopping guide's words, Wu Zhiming knew that the shopping guide looked down on him, but this was also normal. The best bag in the Chanel specialty store might cost millions. There was a risk of wear and tear every time such a bag was moved, so naturally it was impossible to just take it out and show it to people whenever someone wanted to see it. It was just like the same reason that Ferrari would not casually give people a test drive.
Seeing that the other party's attitude was still fairly sincere, Wu Zhiming didn't lose his temper either. He smiled and said, "It's okay, take it out. If my wife likes it, we'll buy it!"
"Well, in that case, I'll go and apply for it. Please wait a moment, sir." After hesitating for a moment, the shopping guide still agreed to Wu Zhiming's request. Because although there were no famous brands on Wu Zhiming and Yao Jing's bodies, the appearances and demeanors of the two didn't look like ordinary people. If they could really afford it, then the shopping guide would have all the performance for the past half year.
"I thought you would lose your temper. Aren't nouveau riches not allowing anyone to look down on them?" Yao Jing teased slightly.
"Naughty, Jingjing. Who is a nouveau riche?" Wu Zhiming said with a smile.
"But later when we look at it, I don't want bags that cost hundreds of thousands or millions." Yao Jing said seriously.
"I spend my money to buy you a bag. Whether you want it or not is your business. Whether to buy it or not is my business." Wu Zhiming said.
Yao Jing frowned and said, "When did you even learn to be overbearing?"
"Overbearing?" Wu Zhiming smiled faintly and said, "A tiger walked by on the road and crushed the ant's nest. The ants thought the tiger was too domineering when barging through, but for the tiger, he was just walking normally."
After hearing Wu Zhiming's words, Yao Jing was silent.
Just at this moment, a shrill voice of a woman suddenly came from the side.
"Isn't this President Yao?!"
Wu Zhiming and Yao Jing both turned their heads to look in the direction where the voice came from.
The speaker was a mature woman about thirty or forty years old.
The woman looked good, full of charm, and was wearing all famous brands.
Wu Zhiming didn't know this woman, but Yao Jing did.
"Fan Yutong! From the Bashu Chain Hot Pot Restaurant." Yao Jing said in a low voice.
"Oh! Hostile towards you." Wu Zhiming also said in a low voice.
Yao Jing shook her head and didn't say much else.
The mature woman named Fan Yutong walked over with a smile and then said, "President Yao, I really didn't expect to be able to meet you here. Why, are you also here to buy a bag?"
"Just came to have a look with my husband." Yao Jing said as she held Wu Zhiming's hand.
"Your husband? Is it the so-called Second Young Master of the Wu family?" Fan Yutong looked at Wu Zhiming and said sarcastically, "He's really handsome. No wonder President Yao will never leave him. Just because of this appearance, even if he has no ability, it's also worth staying together for a lifetime. At least it can be pleasing to the eyes every day, right?"
"In this era, being good-looking is an ability. There's no need for other abilities. By the way, Boss Fan, I heard that the relationship between your husband and you hasn't been very good recently?" Yao Jing asked curiously.
Hearing this, Fan Yutong's face darkened and said, "President Yao's news is really well-informed."
"Nowhere nowhere... By the way, have you settled the matter of your hot pot restaurant using recycled oil?" Yao Jing asked again.
Fan Yutong's face darkened again.
Wu Zhiming on the side was so amused. It was the first time he saw Yao Jing confronting someone. When confronting like this, it was really cutting right to the bone!
The English translation is as follows:
"Just came to have a look with my husband." Yao Jing said, holding Wu Zhiming's hand.
