After the substitution marriage, I became the CEO's white moonlight
Chapter 119: Drive her out
The doctor's words were like a bolt from the blue, exploding in Gu Jinyan's ears. He stumbled back, and all he could see was his grandfather's kind smile and the scene of them playing chess together. Su Li held his hand tightly, trying to give him strength.
"Jin Yan, you have to hold on! Now, you are the only hope of the Gu family..." Aunt Gu pretended to be sad and supported Gu Jinyan, but a barely perceptible gleam flashed in her eyes.
Su Li keenly caught this detail, and her doubts deepened. She remembered the anonymous letter she had received before, which accused Gu Dagu of coveting Gu's property and even implied that she was related to the death of Mr. Gu.
"Impossible..." Su Li whispered to himself, trying to convince himself that this was just a ridiculous guess.
What Gu Dagu said next made her even more certain of her suspicions.
"Jin Yan, your grandfather made a will before he died, leaving all his property to you. I have asked a lawyer to handle it." Aunt Gu said calmly, as if she was talking about something very ordinary.
"Will?" Gu Jinyan raised his head suddenly, his eyes filled with shock, "Why don't I know about it?"
"Your grandfather was afraid that you would be under too much pressure, so he never told you. Now that he is gone, I can only follow his wishes." Aunt Gu said, taking out a file bag from her bag and handing it to Gu Jinyan, "This is your grandfather's will, take a look."
Gu Jinyan took the file bag with trembling hands and was about to open it when Su Li held his hand.
"Wait!" Su Li said calmly, "Let's wait until the lawyer arrives."
Gu Dagu's face changed slightly, but she soon regained her composure. "Okay, let's wait until the lawyer comes."
Su Li and Gu Jinyan found a secret compartment in the study, which contained a document and a USB flash drive.
Su Li opened the document and found that it was the original will signed by Mr. Gu himself. The content on it was completely different from what Aunt Gu said.
In his will, Mr. Gu left most of his property to a charitable foundation and only left a small portion to Gu Jinyan.
Su Li inserted the USB drive into the computer and found that it contained records of Gu Dagu's misappropriation of company funds over the years. The evidence was irrefutable, and Gu Dagu's true face could no longer be hidden.
When the lawyer arrived, he carefully examined the evidence provided by Su Li, and his face suddenly became solemn. He announced Gu Dagu's crime in front of all family members.
"What? This is impossible!" Gu Dagu's face turned pale and she shook her head desperately to deny it.
However, the evidence was irrefutable and she could not argue. After learning the truth, Family Elder B slammed the table and stood up... "What else do you have to say?!" Family Elder B's eyes were wide open, pointing at Aunt Gu's nose, and the cane in his hand hit the ground heavily, making a deafening sound.
Gu Dagu slumped in the chair, her face as pale as paper, her lips trembling slightly, but she couldn't make any sound. She never thought that after so many years of careful planning, it would be in vain in the end.
"Someone, get her out!" Family elder B gave an order, and several bodyguards immediately stepped forward and forcibly dragged Aunt Gu out of the meeting room.
"Let me go! Let me go!" Gu Dagu struggled desperately, but to no avail. She could only watch herself being ruthlessly thrown out of the Gu family's door, like a stray dog.
The news of Gu Dagu's crime soon spread in the circle, and those business partners who used to be close to her all distanced themselves from her, fearing that they would get into trouble. Gu Dagu's house, which used to be crowded with people, is now deserted.
Gu Dagu's plan failed completely. She lost everything: her family, her wealth, her reputation...
At the same time, Gu Jinyan and Su Li began to deal with Mr. Gu's estate. According to the will, they donated most of the property to charity foundations for poverty alleviation, education, medical care and other public welfare undertakings.
"You really don't regret it?" Su Li looked at Gu Jinyan and asked softly.
Gu Jinyan shook his head, his eyes firm: "This is grandpa's last wish, and it's what I hope to see."
Su Li smiled and held his hand tightly. They all knew that the road ahead was still long and there were many challenges waiting for them.
"Knock knock knock..." A knock on the door interrupted their thoughts.
"Come in." Gu Jinyan said in a deep voice.
The secretary pushed the door open and walked in, looking serious: "Boss Gu, something happened..."
The secretary looked solemn and spoke in a hurried tone: "Boss Gu, Global Finance suddenly withdrew its investment. Their representative is already downstairs in the company, saying that they want to terminate the cooperation!"
Gu Jinyan frowned slightly. The withdrawal of investment by Global Finance was undoubtedly worse than before. They had just resolved the inheritance dispute, and the company was in a state of disrepair. It was the time when they needed financial support. "I understand. You hold them steady first. I'll be down right away."
Su Li's heart sank when she heard the news. She held Gu Jinyan's hand and whispered, "Don't worry, we'll face it together." Gu Jinyan held her hand in return, his eyes firm, "Don't worry, I won't let anyone hurt you and the company."
After several rounds of difficult negotiations, Gu Jinyan and Su Li finally stabilized Global Finance and gained a week to resolve the problem. They held an emergency meeting overnight to analyze the reasons for Global Finance's withdrawal and formulate a response strategy. In the end, they decided to use this time to actively look for new investors, reorganize the company internally, and enhance the company's value to attract more investors.
Time flies, and the deadline agreed with Global Finance has arrived in the blink of an eye. This week, Gu Jinyan and Su Li hardly slept a wink. They led the company team to work day and night, and finally found a new investor at the last minute, successfully resolving the crisis.
In order to celebrate this hard-earned victory and to thank all the family members and employees who supported them, Gu Jinyan specially held a grand celebration banquet at the Gu family's old house.
The banquet hall was brightly lit, with well-dressed people, clinking glasses, and creating a joyous atmosphere.
Gu Jinyan, wearing a black suit and standing tall, stood in the middle of the crowd, raised his glass, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you all for coming tonight. During this period, our Gu family has experienced some ups and downs, but fortunately with your support and help, we finally overcame the difficulties and ushered in a new beginning. I toast to everyone and wish the Gu family better and better!"
"Cheers!" everyone responded in unison and drank the wine in their glasses.
Su Li, wearing a champagne-colored dress, stood elegantly beside Gu Jinyan with a faint smile on her face. She looked around at the familiar faces around her, her heart filled with gratitude and emotion.
Just as everyone was immersed in the joy of victory, Gu Jinyan's phone suddenly vibrated. He glanced at the caller ID, his face changed slightly, and then he walked to the corner and answered the call calmly.
"What did you say?!" Gu Jinyan's voice was filled with disbelief...
Gu Jinyan's fingers tightened around the phone, and his face became increasingly gloomy. He said a few words in a hurry and hung up the phone, with complex emotions surging in his deep eyes. Su Li noticed his abnormality, walked forward worriedly, and asked softly, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
Gu Jinyan took a deep breath, trying to suppress the waves in his heart, and forced a smile: "It's okay, there is a small problem in the company, I will go and deal with it, you take good care of the guests."
Although Su Li was confused, she didn't want to spoil his interest, so she didn't ask any more questions. She just reminded him, "Don't work too hard. Come back early."
Gu Jinyan nodded and turned to leave the banquet hall. His steps were hurried, and his back was heavy, which was out of tune with the lively and cheerful atmosphere of the banquet.
Shortly after Gu Jinyan left, a man who looked like a lawyer hurried to the old house and went straight to the banquet hall. He looked around and finally his eyes fell on Gu Jinyan's seat. Seeing that he was not there, he walked straight to Su Li.
"Excuse me, are you Mrs. Gu?" the lawyer asked politely.
Su Li nodded slightly: "Yes, may I ask who you are?"
"I am Mr. Gu's lawyer," the lawyer said, taking out a document from his briefcase, "When Mr. Gu was alive, he made a will..."
Before the lawyer finished speaking, the guests around him began to discuss. The distribution of Mr. Gu's estate has always been the focus of everyone in the Gu family. Now that a new will has suddenly appeared, it has naturally caused an uproar.
When Family Elder B heard what the lawyer said, his face changed slightly. He quickly walked up to Su Li and asked in a deep voice, "What will? How come I don't know about it?"
The lawyer pushed his glasses and said calmly, "This will was secretly entrusted to me by Mr. Gu before he died. It has not been made public until today." He opened the document in his hand and said, "According to the contents of the will, 10% of the shares of Gu Group will be..."
Before the lawyer finished speaking, Aunt Gu suddenly rushed forward, snatched the document from his hand, and shouted: "Impossible! This must be fake! How could my brother give away his shares..."
Her voice stopped abruptly because she saw the contents of the document and her face turned pale instantly.
