The online frenzy continued unabated, but Ji Wei remained unbothered, calmly working in her office as if nothing had happened.
The shareholders who were extremely dissatisfied with Ji Wei decided to hold their fire for now, convinced that the rumors alone were enough to sink her, while they sat back to reap the benefits.
As for Mu Jiajiao, Ji Wei still found her somewhat useful, so she decided to set her aside for the moment.
After work hours ended, the employees left the company one by one.
Downstairs, in front of the building, the media and reporters stubbornly remained, unwilling to leave. Having waited until the end of the workday, they were determined to endure whatever it took to get firsthand interview material.
Mary walked in and asked, "Mrs. Gu, there are reporters everywhere outside. Shall I cover for you when you leave later?"
"No need," Ji Wei said, signing the final document and lifting her head. "Someone will be picking us up shortly."
