After the substitution marriage, I became the CEO's white moonlight

In the dim light, Su Li carefully searched every corner of the room. She carefully moved the heavy furniture and brushed off the dust, hoping to find some clues. As time passed, Su Li's heart gradually sank. Is there really nothing here?

Just when she was about to give up, suddenly, her fingers touched something cold and hard. She was delighted and quickly used her hands to dig away the debris around her, and a rusty iron box appeared in front of her.

Su Li carefully opened the iron box, and inside lay a simple brass key. The shape of the key was very special, and there were some complex and delicate patterns carved on it, like some ancient text.

Could this be the other key left by the old man? Su Li was very excited. She quickly put the key away and prepared to leave this long-sealed room.

However, just as she turned around, there was a sudden noise under her feet. Before she could react, the floor collapsed, and Su Li lost her balance instantly and fell into the endless darkness...

"Su Li!"

Hearing the loud noise, Gu Jinyan, who was handling affairs in the study, felt a sense of foreboding. He immediately stood up, rushed out of the room, and ran in the direction of the sound.

When he arrived at the abandoned room, he was stunned by the scene in front of him. A corner of the room had completely collapsed, rubble and wood chips were scattered all over the floor, and the dust filled the air, almost blocking all vision.

"Su Li! Where are you?!" Gu Jinyan rushed into the ruins desperately, shouting Su Li's name. His voice was full of anxiety and worry, as if he wanted to overturn the ruins.

"I'm here..." A faint voice came from under a pile of rubble. Gu Jinyan's heart trembled, and he hurriedly ran over to the voice and moved the heavy stone that was pressing on Su Li with his bare hands.

"How are you? Are you hurt?" Gu Jinyan asked with concern as he looked at Su Li, who was pale.

"I'm fine, but..." Su Li suddenly stopped talking, her eyes fell behind Gu Jinyan, and her face turned pale in an instant.

"What's wrong?" Gu Jinyan followed Su Li's gaze and saw that the exit leading to the outside world had been completely blocked by the collapsed beams... Gu Jinyan followed Su Li's gaze and his expression changed. The exit was blocked! He quickly calmed down and began to look around, trying to find other escape routes. However, this abandoned room had been in disrepair for a long time, and the walls and ceiling were full of cracks, and a second collapse could occur at any time.

"Damn it!" Gu Jinyan cursed in a low voice, feeling extremely anxious. He had to find a way to leave here as soon as possible, otherwise he and Su Li would be trapped here to death.

At this time, the Gu family's old house was in uproar because of this sudden accident. When Gu Dagu learned that Su Li and Gu Jinyan were trapped in the abandoned room, a barely perceptible viciousness flashed across her face. She immediately found several elders in the family, exaggerated the incident and pointed the finger at Su Li.

"This Su Li has really bad intentions. She was in a hurry to rummage through the drawers and boxes before the old man's body was even cold. Now she has trapped herself and Jin Yan inside! I think she must have found something important and wanted to keep it for herself!" Aunt Gu said indignantly, as if she had seen it with her own eyes.

After hearing what Aunt Gu said, Family Elder B frowned and began to doubt Su Li and Gu Jinyan's behavior. After all, the old man had just passed away, and they were in a hurry to find something, which was indeed a bit suspicious.

"Let's wait until Jin Yan and Su Li come out before we discuss this matter." Family elder B said in a deep voice, with a hint of displeasure in his tone.

"Uncle, that's not the case. What if they really found something important and secretly destroyed it before anyone knows about it?" Aunt Gu continued to fan the flames, trying to push the emotions of family members to a climax.

As expected, Aunt Gu's words caused a lot of discussion among family members. Many people began to point fingers at Su Li and Gu Jinyan, and their original trust in them was gone.

At the same time, the lawyer who had been investigating the inheritance incident also got some new clues. He found that Gu Dagu had been in close contact with some unidentified people recently, and a huge amount of unidentified money appeared in their accounts.

The lawyer felt that there must be some unspeakable secrets between Gu Dagu and these external forces, and these secrets might be related to the old man's inheritance. However, the current evidence was not enough to bring Gu Dagu to justice, and he had to find more conclusive evidence.

Just when the family members were in a panic because of Su Li and Gu Jinyan being trapped, the lawyer came to the study of family elder B and told him everything he had investigated.

After listening to the lawyer's report, the elder of the family, B, looked terribly gloomy. He looked at the gloomy sky outside the window and muttered to himself: "Could it really be her..."

In the dimly lit study, filled with smoke, the elder of the family, B, had a solemn expression on his face, tapping the table with his fingers one by one, making a dull sound. The lawyer's report was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, stirring up a thousand waves in his heart.

"You mean, my aunt has been very close to those people recently, and there is a huge amount of money of unknown origin in their accounts?" The voice of family elder B was low, with a bit of suppressed anger.

The lawyer nodded and handed over the documents in his hand: "Yes, these are the evidences I collected. Although it cannot be completely proved that the eldest aunt is related to the inheritance incident, but all signs show that she is very likely involved."

Elder B of the family took the information and read it carefully, his brows furrowed more and more. He knew that the eldest aunt had always been eyeing the old man's property, and the sudden death of the old man gave her the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

"I will continue to investigate this matter." Family elder B closed the file, a gleam in his eyes, "You should also continue to pay attention to the movements of your aunt, and report to me immediately if there is any situation."

"Yes!" The lawyer took the order and left.

At the same time, Su Li and Gu Jinyan, who were trapped in an abandoned room, finally found the key to the secret room. It was an ancient copper key hidden behind a painting. If Su Li hadn't been so careful, it would have been difficult to find.

"Found it!" Su Li shouted happily and handed the key to Gu Jinyan.

Gu Jinyan took the key and quickly opened the door. However, when they walked into the room with hope, they found that the room was empty and the documents that were supposed to be placed on the table had long disappeared.

"How could this happen?" Su Li looked at everything in front of him in disbelief, and a deep sense of powerlessness surged in his heart. They had gone through so much hardship and finally found the key to open the room, but in the end it was all in vain. How could they accept this?

Gu Jinyan's expression also became very ugly. He looked around, trying to find some clues. However, there was nothing left in the room except dust and shabby furniture.

"It seems that we are still a step late." Gu Jinyan's voice was low and a little bitter.

Just when they felt desperate, a dark shadow appeared silently at the door...

Just when they felt desperate, a deep voice sounded at the door of the room: "Are you looking for this?"

Su Li and Gu Jinyan turned around at the same time, only to see a man wearing a black windbreaker and a wide-brimmed hat standing at the door. He couldn't see his face clearly. He was holding a file bag in his hand, which was the document about the old man's true will that they had been looking for!

"Who are you?" Gu Jinyan asked vigilantly, with a sharp look in his eyes.

The mysterious man chuckled, with a hint of playfulness in his tone: "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I know what you want."

"What do you want?" Su Li felt that things were not that simple.

"I can give you the file," the mysterious man paused, his tone turned cold, "but you must agree to one condition of mine."

"What conditions?" Gu Jinyan and Su Li asked in unison.

The mysterious man walked out of the shadows. In the dim light, one could vaguely see a meaningful smile on his lips: "The conditions are simple. I want you to..."

He leaned close to Su Li and whispered something in her ear, and Su Li's face turned pale instantly.
