As for Shi Jiaojiao, she drove herself to TK to ask for leave.

Actually, Shi Jiaojiao really didn’t want to stay at TK Group. What she wanted more than asking for leave was to quit directly. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Indeed, she had thought of using her job at TK to get close to Qiao Yichi and Song Yansheng, but she had been at TK for so long, and apart from meeting them once or twice at the beginning, there was no opportunity to see them thereafter.

Moreover, now her target wasn’t them anymore. She was about to become a major shareholder of the Shi Corporation. No matter how good the TK Group was, so what?

Shi Jiaojiao soon arrived at TK, took the elevator straight to the HR department, and found the department head to ask for leave.

She stated her reason with justified confidence: "The Shi Corporation is holding a shareholders meeting today. You must have heard about it, and as the eldest Miss of the Shi Family, I naturally have to attend. Manager Wang, you cannot refuse this leave, can you?"

The other party only smiled faintly. Shi Jiaojiao was of little use at TK Group. Whether she came or not would make no impact on the entire company.

Everyone knew she was there just to occupy a title and pass the time.

Her leave was granted; there was no way not to grant it. Even if Shi Jiaojiao was not capable, she was still the eldest Miss of the Shi Family.

A small manager didn’t dare to offend her.

Shi Jiaojiao smoothly obtained the leave slip, swayed her slender waist and was about to leave, stopping by the restroom before heading out.

There, she overheard some unkind remarks about her.

"Hey, did you just see Shi Jiaojiao? The eldest Miss of the Shi Family!"

"Saw her, all dolled up. If you were informed, you’d think she was here to work; if not, you’d think she was here to attend a banquet!"

"I used to reserve judgment, but today, she might really be going to a banquet. You know, she came to TK Group just to ask for leave!"

"Asking for leave? Tsk tsk, it seems the Shi Corporation is holding a shareholders meeting today. She sure picked the right time for leave, but she doesn’t seem to be a shareholder, does she? Even if she’s the eldest Miss of the Shi Family, she has no right to attend a shareholders meeting. She’s just putting on a show!"

"I think so too. If anyone’s attending the shareholders meeting, wouldn’t it be her half-sister Shi Nuan, who’s got ten percent of the Shi Corporation’s shares!"

"Not just eligible, she’s definitely attending. I have a friend at the Shi Corporation who told me over dinner. She said this Miss Shi Nuan is way more temperamentally easygoing than someone who constantly claims to be the eldest Miss of the Shi Family. She’s also very low-profile, worked diligently during her internship, never puts on airs..."

"Of course, her mother was a famous lady in T City back in the day, unlike those who climbed up through dubious means..."

Upon saying this, the speaker immediately shushed, saying, "You shouldn’t talk like this outside, be careful of causing trouble..."

"What trouble? Getting overheard by Shi Jiaojiao? I’m a full-time employee; why should I fear an intern who got in through connections? Ridiculous!"

"Forget it, let’s not talk about her. It’s got nothing to do with us. Take care of yourself, especially since you’re three months pregnant. Be mindful of prenatal education..."

"I know, I just got annoyed seeing Shi Jiaojiao’s pompous attitude!"

Listening up to this point, Shi Jiaojiao was already fuming. She immediately got up from the stall and stormed out.

The two gossiping in front of the mirror, freshening up their makeup, were startled to see Shi Jiaojiao appear.

Their faces turned pale.

They didn’t expect to bump into Shi Jiaojiao in the restroom!

This was bad; one glanced at the other with a reproachful look.

Meaning, it’s your fault; now we’ve got ourselves in trouble!

Shi Jiaojiao looked at the two, her face dark and angry, "Speak now, why did you stop? Go on, keep talking!"

Both remained silent.

Shi Jiaojiao abruptly stepped forward and grabbed one of them by the arm: "It was you, right? Saying my leave is just for show. Ha, what do you know? I’m also a shareholder of the Shi Corporation. I am too. Shi Nuan has ten percent shares; I have some as well. Who do you think you are to judge me? What right do you have?"

After saying this, she gave the person a shove.

The other was a petite woman, while Shi Jiaojiao was taller and, in her anger, quite forceful.

The woman staggered and fell to the ground, letting out a cry of pain. A colleague reached out to help her, but before she could, her arm was suddenly grabbed by Jiaojiao—
