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

The air seemed to freeze, and Gu Jinyan's eyes met with the newcomer's, emitting cold sparks. He pursed his thin lips tightly, saying nothing, but revealing an unyielding majesty.

"What a big show, Mr. Wang." Gu Jin said in a cold tone, with undisguised sarcasm, "Why, are you trying to intimidate me, Gu?"

The man called Mr. Wang smiled contemptuously, "Mr. Gu, you are joking. I am only here to exercise my rights as a shareholder. Tomorrow is the shareholders' meeting. I think Mr. Gu should be very clear about the current situation."

He looked around, his eyes swept across everyone present, and finally landed on Su Li, with a meaningful smile on his face, "Mrs. Gu is here too, I hope you can persuade Mr. Gu, he who knows the current situation is a hero."

Su Li's heart sank. She knew that a storm was coming.

The atmosphere at the shareholders' meeting the next day was extremely depressing. The acquirer's representatives pressed forward step by step, throwing out a series of harsh conditions in an attempt to completely control Gu's company. Under the tremendous pressure, the major shareholders began to waver, and the already shaky balance began to tilt.

"Mr. Gu, we are all businessmen and we have to consider our own interests." A major shareholder said in a deep voice, "You have seen the current situation. Instead of sitting and waiting for death, why not..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Gu Jinyan's cold eyes, "What do you want to say?"

"We have decided to sell our shares to Mr. Wang." Another major shareholder took over the conversation, with a hint of helplessness and determination in his tone.

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the conference room. Gu Jinyan's face turned pale, his fists clenched, and veins bulged. He stood up suddenly, and his eyes swept over everyone present, "You guys just give up like this? Are the century-old foundation of the Gu family going to be destroyed in your hands?"

His voice was filled with grief and disappointment, but it was unable to stop those who had been blinded by greed.

In the end, the acquisition plan was approved with an overwhelming advantage. Gu Jinyan was powerless to save the situation and could only watch the company he had worked hard to build for many years fall into the hands of others.

After the meeting, Su Li caught up with Gu Jinyan and wanted to comfort him, but was pushed away by the irritable Gu Jinyan.

"Don't touch me!" he roared, his eyes full of bloodshot, "All this is because of you! If it weren't for you back then..."

His words stopped abruptly, but it was like a heavy hammer, hitting Su Li's heart hard, making her feel like she was falling into an ice cave. Su Li staggered, and Gu Jinyan's words were like a sharp blade, piercing her heart hard. She knew that Gu Jinyan was on the verge of collapse at the moment, and she also knew that he shouldn't put all the blame on her, but she couldn't refute it.

She just stood there quietly, letting Gu Jinyan's back disappear from her sight. The office was empty and cold, just like her mood at the moment.

In the next few days, Gu Jinyan locked himself in his study and worked without sleep. He tried to find a ray of hope to save the company, but he hit a wall again and again. The acquirer came with great momentum and was obviously well prepared. They took every step carefully and did not give Gu Jinyan any chance to breathe.

Su Li saw it and felt pain in her heart. She knew that Gu Jinyan was under great pressure, and she also knew that she could not help. The conversations between them became less and less, and the atmosphere became more and more depressing.

"Boss Gu, this is an anti-takeover plan I developed based on the current situation." A financial expert handed a document to Gu Jinyan, "But this plan requires the company to invest a lot of money, and it is very risky. The probability of success is less than 30%."

Gu Jinyan took the document and frowned. He had no way out. This was his last chance. Even if there was only a 30% chance, he had to seize it.

"I need time to think about it." Gu Jinyan rubbed his eyebrows tiredly.

"Mr. Gu, time waits for no one!" The financial expert said anxiously, "The acquirer has already started to act. If we don't take action, it will be too late!"

Gu Jinyan was silent. He knew that what the financial expert said was true, but he was so confused that he couldn't make a rational judgment.

Just then, Su Li walked in and placed a cup of coffee on Gu Jinyan's desk, "Have a cup of coffee first."

Gu Jinyan raised his head and looked at Su Li, with a complex emotion in his eyes. He hadn't looked at her properly for a long time. There seemed to be a few more fine lines at the corners of her eyes, and her face was a little pale.

"You've lost weight." Gu Jinyan's voice was hoarse and low.

Su Li forced a smile, "You too."

"You know everything?" Gu Jinyan asked.

"Yeah." Su Li nodded, "I saw the anti-takeover plan."

"Do you think I should take a gamble?" Gu Jinyan looked at Su Li, his eyes full of confusion and helplessness.

Su Li took a deep breath, her eyes firm and calm, "Even if there is only one percent hope, we must try our best. I can..."

"I can mortgage the real estate and all the shares under my name," Su Li said calmly, as if she was talking about something very ordinary. "Although it's not much, it's enough to support me for a while. Maybe I can find other financing channels."

Gu Jinyan looked at Su Li in shock, his eyes full of disbelief, "Are you crazy? That's your own thing!" He grabbed Su Li's wrist, "Do you know what this means? If you fail, you will have nothing!"

Su Li pulled her hand back with force, her eyes firm, "I know, but compared to the Gu family and..." She paused, avoiding Gu Jinyan's gaze, "and you, these are nothing."

Gu Jinyan's heart seemed to be hit hard by something. He looked at the thin but extremely strong woman in front of him, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but found that his throat was dry and he couldn't say anything.

"Mr. Gu," the financial expert broke the silence, "Ms. Su is right. Time waits for no one. We must make a decision as soon as possible."

Gu Jinyan took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. "I understand." He turned to look at Su Li, his eyes flashing with a complex light. "Thank you, Su Li."

Su Li shook her head gently at him, indicating that he shouldn't take it to heart.

At this moment, Gu Jinyan's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was a securities analyst who was responsible for investigating the background of the acquirer.

"Mr. Gu, we have a new discovery!" The securities analyst's voice was full of excitement. "The acquirer's capital chain has problems. They are suspected of..."

Gu Jinyan's heart skipped a beat, and a spark of hope ignited in his heart. He immediately asked, "What's the problem? Explain it clearly!"

"them……"

However, at this moment, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and a man in a suit and leather shoes strode in, with a sneer of victory on his face, and an arrogant and arrogant tone, "Mr. Gu, I regret to inform you..."

"Mr. Gu, I regret to inform you," the visitor interrupted the securities analyst, with a determined sneer on his face, "Our company has acquired 51% of the shares of Gu Group. From now on, Gu Group will be taken over by us."

The sudden change caught everyone off guard. Gu Jinyan stood up abruptly and shot a sharp look at the person who came. "What did you say? This is impossible!"

"Impossible?" The representative of the acquiring company sneered, took out a document from his briefcase and threw it on the table, "Take a look for yourself!"

Gu Jinyan grabbed the document and quickly glanced through it, his face suddenly turned livid. The document clearly stated in black and white that several important shareholders of Gu's Group had transferred all their shares, and the acquirer's shareholding ratio exceeded 50%, becoming the controlling shareholder of Gu's Group.

How could this happen? Gu Jinyan stared at the signature on the document in disbelief. These shareholders were all old veterans who had followed his father for many years. How could they betray the Gu family at this time?

"It seems that Mr. Gu hasn't figured out the situation yet," the representative of the acquiring company said with a somewhat sarcastic tone, "He who knows the current situation is a hero. Mr. Gu must understand this principle, right?"

Gu Jinyan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, suppressed the emotions surging in his heart, and asked in a cold tone: "Who is it? Who is behind you?"

"Mr. Gu, the business world is like a battlefield, where the winners take all. Why do you have to be so obsessed with these details?" The representative of the acquiring company said arrogantly, "The most important thing now is that Mr. Gu should consider how to plan his future."

"You..." Gu Jinyan was furious and slammed his fist on the table, causing the documents on the table to jump up.

"Jin Yan!" Su Li grabbed Gu Jin Yan's arm and looked at him worriedly, "Calm down!"

Gu Jinyan turned to look at Su Li, his eyes full of pain and self-blame. He held Su Li's hand tightly and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm sorry, I..."

"What's the point of saying sorry now!" The major shareholder who had been silent all this time suddenly stood up, pointed at Gu Jinyan's nose and angrily shouted, "The Gu Group has fallen to this point today, all because of you!"

"We have long advised you not to act on your own and to negotiate with the other party, but you refused to listen!" The major shareholder said with great sorrow, "Now it's all over, Gu's is finished, are you satisfied?"

"You..." Gu Jinyan was so angry that he was shaking all over, but he was powerless to refute. He knew that the major shareholder was right. If he had listened to everyone's opinions earlier, perhaps Gu's would not have fallen to this point today.

"Mr. Gu, I advise you to face reality!" The representative of the acquiring company sneered, "Now that Gu's is ours, you should think about what to do next!"

At this moment, the securities analyst who had been silent all the time suddenly spoke up: "Mr. Gu, don't lose heart, we still have a chance..." He walked to Gu Jinyan and said in a low voice, "I just got the news..."
