"Ayan, be careful!" Su Li exclaimed, recognizing that the person coming was the editor-in-chief of the media who had a close relationship with the vicious female supporting role.

Gu Jinyan reacted quickly, dodging the attack of the man in black by leaning sideways, and at the same time kicked him to the ground. He pulled Su Li up and looked at the man warily.

The editor-in-chief of the media sneered and glanced at the two people with contempt, "Mr. Gu, Miss Su, you are having a tryst here so late, aren't you afraid of being photographed?"

"You followed us?" Su Li frowned, having a bad feeling in his heart.

"Don't get me wrong, I just happened to pass by." The editor-in-chief of the media said, but his eyes fell on the wooden box in Gu Jinyan's hand, "What is that? It looks very important."

Gu Jinyan protected the wooden box behind him and said in a cold tone, "It has nothing to do with you."

The editor-in-chief shrugged and said casually, "I'm just curious. If the media photographed Mr. Gu doing business with a mysterious person late at night, I wonder what they would write about it?"

"You dare!" Su Li was furious. This media editor-in-chief had always been in cahoots with the vicious female supporting role to maliciously smear the Gu family, and now he was threatening them openly.

Gu Jinyan pulled Su Li behind him and stared at the editor-in-chief of the media with sharp eyes, "You can try and see who will be ruined in the end."

The editor-in-chief's face changed slightly. Gu Jinyan was not someone to be trifled with. He did not dare to act rashly. He snorted coldly, turned back to the car, and drove away.

"Let's go too." Gu Jinyan pulled Su Li back to the car with a serious expression.

He knew that what happened tonight was just the beginning, and the vicious female supporting role and the editor-in-chief of the media would never give up. They had to act quickly and bring the vicious female supporting role to justice in order to completely resolve this storm.

The next morning, Su Li and Gu Jinyan came to the procuratorate with the collected evidence.

The prosecutor carefully examined all the evidence, including the account books and letters in the wooden box and other clues they provided. These evidences clearly showed that the vicious female partner colluded with external forces, used improper means to seek benefits, and even did not hesitate to damage the interests of the Gu family.

"The evidence is irrefutable. We can open a case for investigation," the prosecutor said solemnly. "But you must also be prepared. The other party is powerful and may launch a counterattack."

"We are not afraid." Su Li said firmly, "Evil cannot prevail over justice. We believe that the law will give us justice."

However, what they don't know is that at this moment, the vicious female supporting role has learned of their every move, and a carefully planned revenge plan is quietly unfolding...

The vicious female supporting role received a call from the editor-in-chief of the media and learned that Su Li and Gu Jinyan had gone to the procuratorate. She was so angry that she smashed the red wine glass in her hand to the ground. The scarlet wine splashed everywhere, just like her mood at the moment, anger, resentment, and deep fear.

"How dare they!" She growled through gritted teeth, "How dare they tell me what I did!"

The editor-in-chief of the media said with a hint of gloating in his tone: "It seems that you have hit a wall this time. Gu Jinyan is not that easy to deal with."

"Stop your sarcastic remarks! If I'm not doing well, you won't be doing well either!" the vicious female partner said sternly, "Release the news immediately and say that the Gu Group is evading taxes and falsifying accounts. And Gu Jinyan is keeping a mistress and has a decadent lifestyle!"

"This..." The editor-in-chief of the media hesitated. "These accusations require evidence. Without evidence, it may be difficult to convince the public."

"Evidence? What I want is public opinion and pressure! I want to make the Gu family so anxious that they can't take care of themselves!" The vicious female supporting role's voice was shrill and harsh. "You just need to do what I say. I will take care of the rest."

The editor-in-chief of the media was silent for a moment, but finally agreed. He knew that he had no way out and could only go all the way.

At this time, Su Li and Gu Jinyan had already returned to the Gu family villa. They expected that the vicious female supporting role would not sit still and wait for death, and would definitely counterattack, but they did not expect her to act so quickly.

"It seems that we have to take the initiative." Gu Jinyan said calmly, "Instead of passively defending, it is better to take the initiative to resolve the crisis."

"What do you mean?" Su Li looked at Gu Jinyan, waiting for his plan.

"Hold a press conference." Gu Jinyan's eyes were firm, "Disclose everything and make the truth known to the public."

The next day, the announcement of the Gu Group's press conference dominated the headlines of major media. For a time, public opinion was in an uproar, and everyone was wondering why the Gu family, which has always been low-key, was so high-profile this time.

On the day of the press conference, the entire venue was packed with media reporters from all over the country. Everyone's eyes were focused on the stage, waiting for Gu Jinyan's speech.

Gu Jinyan was dressed in a black suit with a stern expression. He explained the situation briefly and disclosed the crimes of the vicious female supporting role, including how she took advantage of her position to embezzle company property, how she colluded with external forces to damage the company's interests, and how she maliciously spread rumors and slandered him and Su Li.

"We have obtained solid evidence and submitted it to the procuratorate." Gu Jinyan's voice was sonorous and powerful. "We believe that the law will give us justice."

As soon as the words fell, there was an uproar from the audience. No one expected that such shocking inside information would be revealed at this press conference.

With a "click", photos appeared on the projector. It was a scene of the vicious female supporting role and the media editor-in-chief meeting in private, as well as the transfer records between them, and some planning schemes for negative reports about the Gu Group.

"These are the evidences we have collected, which are enough to prove everything." Su Li's voice was firm and calm. "We stand up today to reveal the truth and give everyone justice."

The venue was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Everyone was shocked by the scene before their eyes. They had never thought that the truth would be like this.

At this moment, a reporter suddenly stood up, holding up the microphone and asked loudly: "Mr. Gu, Ms. Su, you said that these are all true, then do you have evidence to prove it? If not, you are defaming others and you will be held legally responsible!"

Su Li and Gu Jinyan looked at each other, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corners of their mouths at the same time.

"Of course." Su Li calmly opened the folder in her hand, "Let's make things clear today..."

Su Li elegantly and calmly opened the folder in her hand, pulled out a few sheets of printed paper, and displayed them in front of everyone: "Here are detailed records of all the crimes committed by the vicious female supporting role, including time, place, people, events, and even documents signed by her."

The venue suddenly exploded, flash lights flashed wildly, and reporters rushed to take pictures, afraid of missing any details.

"This is impossible!" A sharp voice came from the crowd, with obvious panic and trembling.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw the vicious female supporting character with a pale face and bloodshot eyes, struggling to escape like a trapped beast.

"What else do you have to say?" Su Li's voice was cold and ruthless, like a sharp blade, piercing the vicious female supporting character's heart.

"You...you guys..." The vicious female supporting character spoke incoherently, her eyes flickering, but she could no longer utter a complete sentence.

The press conference lasted for a whole afternoon. Su Li and Gu Jinyan's powerful counterattacks shut up all those who wanted to laugh at the joke.

All major media outlets rushed to report on the incident, and not only was the Gu family's reputation not damaged, but because of their bravery and openness, they won the respect and support of more people.

However, just after the press conference ended, Su Li returned to the room and found an anonymous letter lying quietly on her dressing table.

She opened the envelope and saw lines of beautiful handwriting:

"Su Li, I know you did it, you'd better stop pursuing it, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

At the end of the letter, there was a picture of a bright red rose, which was gorgeous yet chilling.

Su Li's heart sank suddenly, and a chill ran from the soles of her feet to her head.

"What's wrong?" Gu Jinyan pushed the door open and saw Su Li's pale face with a letter in her hand. He asked with concern.

Su Li took a deep breath and handed the letter to Gu Jinyan: "Look."

After reading the letter, Gu Jinyan's expression became serious: "It seems that someone doesn't want us to continue investigating."

"Who do you think it is?" Su Li asked.

Gu Jinyan pondered for a moment and slowly uttered a name.

"No matter who it is," his eyes became fierce, "we will not compromise!"

"We..." Su Li was about to speak, but was pulled into Gu Jinyan's arms.

"Don't be afraid, I will protect you." His voice was low and firm, like a mountain, protecting her from wind and rain.

Su Li's heart, at this moment, was extremely peaceful.

Outside the window, the night is dark and the cold wind is howling.

A bigger storm is quietly brewing...

The content of the anonymous letter was like a thorn that pierced Su Li's heart deeply and could not be shaken off. Gu Jinyan's embrace gave her strength and made her more determined. They all knew that this letter was just the beginning, and a bigger storm was approaching.

"Jin Yan, we can't just sit there and wait for death." Su Li stepped back slightly from Gu Jin Yan's embrace, her eyes firm, "We must act before them."

Gu Jinyan gently stroked Su Li's long hair, his tone gentle but with unquestionable firmness: "Don't worry, I have asked Lawyer Zhang to speed up the collection of evidence and submit the information to the procuratorate tomorrow morning."

Su Li nodded, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes: "But, the mastermind behind this..."

"No matter who it is, as long as he dares to take action, I will make him pay the price." Gu Jinyan interrupted Su Li, with a sharp light in his eyes.

The next morning, when the first rays of sunlight shone into the room, Su Li and Gu Jinyan were ready to go. They drove to the procuratorate and handed over all the evidence to the prosecutor in charge of the case.

"Mr. Gu, Ms. Su, don't worry. We will verify the evidence as soon as possible and prosecute the suspect according to law." The prosecutor was a serious middle-aged man. He took the documents and said in a firm tone.

Coming out of the procuratorate, Su Li and Gu Jinyan felt much more relaxed. A just trial was coming, and they believed that the law would give them justice. However, they did not know that even greater challenges were still to come.

In the evening, Su Li's phone suddenly rang. It was the editor-in-chief of a media outlet calling in an anxious tone: "Ms. Su, something terrible has happened. A lot of false reports about you and Mr. Gu have suddenly appeared on the Internet. Public opinion is now very unfavorable to you. You'd better check the Internet immediately!"

Su Li's heart suddenly sank, and an ominous premonition came to her mind. She opened the web page on her mobile phone, and an overwhelming amount of negative news came into her eyes. The headlines were shocking, and the content was even more distorted and malicious.

"Who is it? Who is manipulating all this behind the scenes?" Su Li's fingers were tightly gripping the phone, her nails almost digging into her flesh.

Gu Jinyan grabbed Su Li's hand, his eyes cold, and said word by word: "It seems that we still underestimated the other party's determination..."
