During Monday's work, Chi Yu received another package in his office, but he didn't open it, just placing them in a cabinet.
Chen Nan entered, "Boss, the deploynt in Ancheng has been completed. We need your signature to proceed." Chen Nan handed him a docunt, "Also, Chen, the boss of JinXun, is caught up in a sex scandal and other serious negative public opinions. He's temporarily suppressed. If exposed, it might affect JinXun, and he's asking for our help."
Chi Yu glanced at the information for two pages, sarcastically smiling, "Acquire his shares. If he refuses, tell him we'll deliver the evidence to his wife. Oh, and rember to report it to the police afterward."
Chen Nan: "I'll go right away... Oh, almost forgot. This is about Songhua Technology preparing to release a new product. It has so similarities with ours. If they release it before us, people might accuse us of plagiarism. Song Luosheng will likely deploy a cyber army against us."
Chi Yu, upon hearing Song Luosheng's na, imdiately thought of what Song Luokui said last night: "Because I'm Song Luosheng's sister, I won't be friends with you."
Chi Yu: "Why are they sowhat similar? Information leak?"
Chen Nan: "No, the investigation shows it's accidental. Our designer's ideas coincided with theirs."
Chi Yu: "When do they launch?"
Chen Nan: "In a week, precisely next Monday."
Chi Yu: "Then we'll release on Sunday."
Chen Nan: "Good, I'll inform the team."
On Song Luokui's side, having resolved one matter, she faced Song Luosheng with indifference. However, Song Luosheng was busy, dealing with the growing company and nurous matters. Song Luokui could even see him on the phone or in video conferences when he ca ho.
One night, when Song Luokui got up to drink water, she surprisingly saw the study's light on. Song Luosheng was inside, seemingly having a eting with overseas personnel.
Thinking of her brother working so hard to earn money, and considering the hostile relationship between Song Luosheng and Chi Yu, Song Luokui felt her actions were right. She's Song Luosheng's sister; she should be aligned with him externally. How could she have relations with the enemy?
Moreover, on her birthday this year, Song Luosheng directly gifted her a set of houses. This ant a portion of the money he earned was for her. If her brother knew she was dining with the enemy, it would be heartbreaking.
The more Song Luokui thought about it, the more convinced she was right.
Soon, the weekend arrived, and Song Luosheng finally had so ti to rest at ho. Song Luokui had breakfast with him, and with Song Moqian and Sheng Rong also at ho, she suggested having a al together with grandparents.
Everyone agreed, and Song Luosheng was about to book a private room when Lin Xingyan suddenly called, "Boss! Shan Yu Group has just released their product, and it has so similar features to ours."
"What?" Song Luosheng imdiately stood up. "Compile detailed information and have everyone co to the company for an imdiate eting."
"Yes."
Song Luokui and Sheng Rong exchanged glances, unsure of what was happening.
Watching Song Luosheng rush out, Song Luokui put down the oranges in her hand and whispered, "So... are we still eating?"
Sheng Rong replied, "Your brother's company must have sothing urgent. We probably can't eat tonight, let's wait until next ti." Then she instructed Aunt Gui, "Aunt Gui, prepare sothing delicious and have Uncle Kang deliver it to Luosheng later."
"Okay, Madam."
Song Luokui, curious about what Song Luosheng had just heard about product releases, imdiately searched online for information.
She quickly ca across an article: "Shan Yu Group Releases New Product Ahead of Schedule, Songhua Technology Slightly Behind?"
The article introduced Shan Yu Group's new product and ntioned insider information claiming that Songhua Technology's new product, scheduled for release on Monday, shared so similarities with Shan Yu Group's. The article remained neutral, expressing confusion about which side was copying whom, but noted that since Shan Yu Group had released first, Songhua Technology was at a disadvantage.
Song Luosheng soon arrived at the company and, after discussing with everyone, decided to proceed with the product launch on Monday.
As for the rest, they would face the challenges as they co.
That day, as Song Luokui returned ho from school, she noticed a car entering the compound at the sa ti. It belonged to Chi Yu, but he wasn't in the driver's seat; instead, a chauffeur was. The windows were tightly shut, and Song Luokui couldn't see anyone inside.
Nevertheless, she imdiately turned to take another path ho. She knew it was childish, but with her brother's recent busy schedule, she felt a surge of resentnt towards Chi Yu.
She understood that the business world was ever-changing, and competition through legitimate ans was allowed, even beneficial for strengthening companies.
Understanding was one thing, but resentnt was another. After all, she was only human and prone to bias.
Chi Yu in the car glanced at her retreating figure before lowering his head to focus on the computer screen.
Song Luokui thought she wouldn't have any more interactions with Chi Yu. Once Song Luosheng had finished dealing with the product launch, he finally found so free ti and decided it had been a while since they'd had fun. So, he took Song Luokui and his brothers to the Billiards Club to play.
Song Luokui had never played billiards before and initially watched Song Luosheng and the others play while she sat on the side, sipping her drink, feeling a bit bored. Eventually, she moved to another table to try playing herself.
Zhou Yuan ran over. "Sister, let teach you how to play. You don't know how, right?"
Song Luokui nodded. "Yeah, I don't." It was her first ti playing.
Zhou Yuan stood behind her, "You can't lean like that. It should be like this... the posture should be like this, no, it's like this." Zhou Yuan helped her adjust her posture. Actually, Zhou Yuan was a bit cautious, his hand did touch hers, but their positions weren't too intimate.
It was just a normal teaching gesture, but it didn't look that way to others.
At this mont, Chi Yu was standing on the second floor, looking down through the glass, his eyes fixed on Zhou Yuan's hand placed on Song Luokui's hand.
As Song Luokui followed Zhou Yuan's guidance and finally got the ball into the basket, she happily high-fived Zhou Yuan and then continued playing.
With a "snap," the cup in Chi Yu's hand was directly crushed by him, his hand covered in blood. Suddenly, a violent and terrifying aura spread in Chi Yu's eyes, but it was quickly suppressed.
While playing, Song Luokui always felt like soone was watching her. She looked up at the second floor but didn't see anything. The glass on the second floor was too dark to see inside.
Song Luokui felt like she might be overreacting.
Before long, Zhang Xiyue and Zhou Yue also ca over to learn with Zhou Yuan. The group played together, celebrating with high fives whenever the ball went into the basket. They were all quite happy.
However, the happiness didn't last long. Song Luokui heard her phone vibrating and ran over to check. It was a ssage from Chi Yu.
