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

Gu Jinyan held the phone, his face as gloomy as the dark clouds before a storm. On the other end of the phone, the lawyer's voice was low and urgent: "Mr. Gu, we found out that the mastermind had transferred most of his assets to overseas accounts before being arrested. The funds that can be recovered are very limited at present."

"What?" Su Li exclaimed, her face instantly turning pale. She couldn't believe that the person who kidnapped her was so cunning that he even had a backup plan when he was imprisoned.

Gu Jinyan took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said coldly: "I understand, you continue to track the flow of funds and do your best to freeze his overseas accounts."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Jinyan gently held Su Li in his arms and whispered comfortingly: "Don't worry, I will take care of everything."

Su Li raised her head, her eyes full of worry: "But, if he still has so much money, will he..."

"No." Gu Jinyan interrupted her, his tone firm, "I have arranged for people to protect your safety 24 hours a day. He will not have the chance to hurt you again."

Although Gu Jin's tone was firm, Su Li's uneasiness could not be shaken off. She knew that the mastermind behind the scenes must have something to rely on if he dared to kidnap her so blatantly. Now, although he was imprisoned, there might be his minions in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to act.

The lawyer's investigation results soon came back, confirming their guess. The mastermind behind the scenes did leave a lot of tricks behind. He secretly cultivated a group of confidants and planted his own forces in various fields.

"It seems that we still underestimated him." Gu Jinyan looked at the information in his hand with a frown, "He is like a poisonous snake. Even if his head is chopped off, his body can still twist and wait for an opportunity to bite back."

"Then what should we do?" Su Li asked anxiously, "Should we just let him get away with it?"

"Of course not." A cold light flashed in Gu Jinyan's eyes, "I will make him pay for what he did!"

The lawyer suggested that legal means could be used to freeze the remaining assets of the mastermind in the country, and that an application could be made to Interpol to issue a red warrant for his arrest and conduct a global manhunt.

"Okay, I'll do as you say." Gu Jinyan made a prompt decision, "Also, immediately strengthen the security measures at the company and home, and never give the other party any chance to take advantage of you."

Just then, Gu's grandmother walked in accompanied by family elder B, with a serious look on her face.

"Jin Yan, I've heard about it." Gu's grandmother said in a heavy tone, "Our Gu family will never let this matter go!"

Family elder B also echoed, "That's right, we must bring the mastermind to justice to serve as a warning to others!"

Gu Jinyan nodded, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes: "I have arranged people to investigate this matter with all their strength."

"Yes." The grandmother of the Gu family nodded with satisfaction. "This matter concerns the reputation of our Gu family. We must handle it with caution."

Elder B of the family pondered for a moment and slowly said, "I suggest that we hold a family meeting to discuss how to completely eliminate the power of the mastermind behind this and protect the safety of the Gu family."

"I agree." Gu Jinyan nodded in agreement.

Su Li stood aside, looking at the group of people in front of her, with mixed feelings in her heart. She knew that a bigger storm was coming. The atmosphere in the old house of the Gu family was solemn.

The carved wooden door slowly closed, isolating the family meeting room from the outside world. At the long table, the core members of each branch of the Gu family gathered together, and everyone had an unusually serious look on their faces.

"Everyone, we have gathered here today to discuss how to deal with this crisis." Family elder B sat in the main seat, looked around, and said in a steady and powerful tone, "Although the mastermind has been arrested, his power is complicated. We must completely eliminate the trouble to ensure the safety of the Gu family and Su Li."

"Uncle is right. We must never let something like this happen again!" said a family member indignantly.

"But what should we do?" Another member looked troubled. "That person's power has already infiltrated every field. How easy is it to completely eliminate him?"

Everyone was silent, and the atmosphere became even more depressing.

"I have an idea." Su Li, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up, her clear voice echoing in the conference room, "We can start from two aspects, one is to strengthen family security, and the other is to rectify the internal affairs of the company."

Everyone's eyes were focused on Su Li, with a hint of surprise in their eyes.

"First, we can hire a professional security team to conduct a comprehensive security upgrade for the old house and the company." Su Li continued calmly, "At the same time, we can provide security training for all family members and company executives to improve their safety awareness and response capabilities."

"Secondly, we can conduct a thorough investigation within the company, identify all personnel involved with the mastermind, and remove them." Su Li paused, his eyes firm, "At the same time, we can strengthen the internal audit and supervision mechanism to prevent similar incidents from happening again."

"What Su Li said makes a lot of sense!" Gu Jinyan looked at Su Li with admiration, his eyes full of pride, "I completely agree with her suggestion."

"I agree too!"

“These measures are necessary!”

Family members expressed their support.

Gu's grandmother looked at the young couple in front of her and nodded with satisfaction.

"Since everyone agrees, let's follow Su Li's suggestion." Family elder B made the decision, "Jin Yan, this matter will be handed over to you and Su Li. You must do a good job!"

"Yes!" Gu Jinyan and Su Li answered in unison.

A family meeting ended in a solemn and resolute atmosphere.

However, this is just the beginning.

Gu Jinyan and Su Li walked out of the old house. His eyes were deep, as if he could see through everything. "It seems that we still have a long way to go..."

After the family meeting, Gu Jinyan took swift action and worked with his legal team to conduct a thorough investigation of the company.

Some employees who were involved with the mastermind were ruthlessly cleared out, regardless of their position.

At the same time, Su Li also actively cooperated with Gu Jinyan's work.

With her keen observation and insight into people's hearts, she helped Gu Jinyan identify some "cancers" hidden in the dark.

"These people appear loyal on the surface, but secretly they are doing things that harm the interests of the company. How despicable!" Su Li was indignant as he looked at the investigation report in his hand.

"If you don't remove the roots, they will grow again in the spring breeze." Gu Jinyan's face was grim. "We must completely eliminate these tumors to ensure the healthy development of Gu's company."

After a period of reorganization, Gu's Group has taken on a new look. New management systems and supervision mechanisms have been established, and employees' work enthusiasm has reached an unprecedented high.

Su Li and Gu Jinyan did not let down their guard.

They know very well that the power of the mastermind behind the scenes is complex and cannot be completely eliminated overnight.

On a sunny afternoon, Su Li and Gu Jinyan decided to go to the mall to pick out some household items.

In order to avoid being seen, they chose a relatively secluded shopping mall and did not bring any bodyguards.

"Look, what do you think of that vase? Isn't it beautiful?" Su Li pointed at a blue and white porcelain vase in the window and asked with a smile.

"As long as you like it." Gu Jinyan looked at Su Li gently, his eyes full of doting.

However, just as they were immersed in their sweet world of two, a strange feeling came over them.

"Wait..." Gu Jinyan suddenly grabbed Su Li's arm and protected her behind him, "I feel like someone is following us."

Su Li's heart tightened. She looked around but didn't see any suspicious figures.

"Could it be your illusion?" Su Li asked in a low voice.

"It can't be wrong." Gu Jinyan's tone was unusually certain, "My intuition tells me that danger is nearby."

They quickened their pace, trying to throw off the pursuers.

The feeling of being watched became stronger and stronger...

Gu Jinyan took Su Li's hand and quickened his pace. They shuttled through the rows of shelves, trying to shake off the tail behind them. Su Li's heart was beating fast. She held Gu Jinyan's hand tightly, and felt the sweat in her palms. Suddenly, Gu Jinyan's cell phone rang. He answered the call and his face became solemn in an instant. "What?... How could this happen?... I know, I'll go back right away!"

After hanging up the phone, Gu Jinyan's face turned pale. He took a deep breath and said to Su Li, "It's grandma, the ancestral home was attacked!"

Su Li was horrified, "Is grandma okay?"

"He's fine, just frightened. It seems the other party just wants to give us a warning." Gu Jinyan's tone was full of coldness. He clenched his fists tightly, and flames of anger flashed in his eyes.

Gu Jinyan and Su Li immediately rushed back to the Gu family's ancestral home, only to see that the courtyard was already full of police officers, and the family elders were gathered in the hall. The atmosphere was solemn and depressing. Gu's grandmother sat on the sofa, her face pale, holding a string of Buddhist beads tightly in her hand, muttering something.

"What's going on?" Gu Jinyan asked in a deep voice.

An elder of the family sighed, "This afternoon, a group of men in black suddenly broke into the ancestral home. They rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, as if they were looking for something. Fortunately, the servants called the police in time, so they did not succeed."

"Did the police find anything?"

"The police retrieved the surveillance video, but the men in black were masked and their modus operandi was very professional, leaving no clues," added the lawyer.

Gu Jinyan frowned, realizing that this attack was not accidental. Although the mastermind behind the attack had been arrested, his remnants still existed and were still operating in secret. They were like poisonous snakes hiding in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to strike and could attack again at any time.

"It seems that we have underestimated our opponents." Gu Jinyan's tone was cold, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes. "Pass the order down. From today on, comprehensively strengthen the family's security measures. I want to see how long they can hide!" He grasped Su Li's hand and said firmly, "I will definitely protect you and our family." Su Li felt the warmth of his palm and felt much more at ease, but she knew that the real test had just begun...
