She turned.
And left the sea behind.
By early afternoon, she was back in the city.
The glass towers of Lu South Group rose ahead, reflecting the sharp lines of the skyline.
Inside, everything functioned as it should.
Structured.
Controlled.
Alive.
Shuyin stepped into the executive floor, and the atmosphere shifted almost instantly.
Staff straightened.
Conversations lowered.
Presence recognized.
She moved through it without pause and entered her office.
Work began immediately.
Documents.
Reports.
Financial restructuring tied to the seized assets.
Legal confirmations.
Her mind moved through it all with precision.
No hesitation.
No distraction.
As if the chaos of the morning had never touched her.
