The Supporting Actress Made A Comeback

Chapter 564 - 565: You Are a Pauper Now

Zhang Wenshu wanted to argue his case, feeling incredibly unjustified in his heart.

"Now, do as I say," Mo Shu swept her cold gaze over him. "If this doesn’t turn around in three days, get the hell out!"

Zhang Wenshu retorted angrily, "This issue was difficult to deal with from the start. No one could have handled it well. It’s been so many days already, if it could have turned around, it would have done so by now, wouldn’t it?"

"It seems you want to leave right now?"

Zhang Wenshu was at a loss for words, looking at Mo Shu with frustration and anger, eventually swallowing all his words back.

Back in his office, Zhang Wenshu was so furious he smashed things and cursed loudly, "Damn it, is it just because she’s the granddaughter of the chairman? She doesn’t know shit, goddammit, what a joke!"

The secretary outside overheard Zhang Wenshu’s words. She looked down, saying nothing, not daring to utter a sound.

This President Zhang, not only did he look down on the Mo Family’s Princess, he talked back to her in public, and now these curses—if anyone heard them, Zhang Wenshu would definitely be doomed.

The more Mo Shu thought about it, the angrier she became, but soon she calmed down.

The more she analyzed, the more Mo Shu felt it was very likely the work of a competitor out for revenge.

First off, artificial leather that’s extremely similar to animal leather is not something an average person can produce.

In the factory, there should be plenty of skilled craftsmen responsible for quality control—so how could it be possible for such a high-grade imitation to get past strict inspections and make it to market officially?

What’s terrifying is that these artificial leathers need to be used for a period before flaws become apparent. In this way, only the consumers could discover them.

So this time, the target group for the quality issue was very accurate—the consumers.

And through customer feedback, the most directly affected victim would be Jijue.

Jijue built up its reputation over a century for excellence in both jewelry and leather, and with top-notch designers, Jijue was leagues ahead of many in the handbag industry.

To pull Jijue down from the altar and directly ruin its reputation was undoubtedly the most direct and effective method.

Mo Shu asked Sao Zha, "Is there a way for me to find out who is behind this sabotage?"

Sao Zha: [How do you know for sure that someone is causing trouble? What if it was just some greedy craftsmen skimming off the top?]

"The craftsmen handling the leather are well-compensated—their salaries are good. Before those materials are processed, they wouldn’t be more valuable than their long-term benefits, they’re not that foolish," Mo Shu was very certain in her heart, "Someone is definitely trying to ruin Jijue’s reputation intentionally."

Sao Zha: "Well, there could be a way, but it’s complicated. You need to start by finding a clue. Purchase a Clue Conductor for 15 points. If the Conductor discovers that someone did it on purpose, it will take an additional 20 points to find the culprit. In total, you’ll need 35 points."

Mo Shu: "..."

"How many points do I have?"

[23.]

Sao Zha: [You’re just a pauper right now.]

Mo Shu: "..."

"What about Happiness?"

[When you first woke up, you gained 10, but then you lost 4, and after that, you gained another 6, making a total of 12 points.]

Mo Shu couldn’t believe it, "That little?!"

Sao Zha: [Yes, but don’t worry, you have 8 more months. If you don’t reach 100 Happiness points, that’s when you’d be doomed by a hundred men. A hundred points of Happiness, it’s not that hard.]

Mo Shu couldn’t believe it, "Why eight months? Isn’t there supposed to be no time limit???"

[You must fulfill the male lead’s Happiness within a year of crossing into this book, otherwise it’s considered a mission failure. Didn’t I tell you this when you first came?]
