Gu Jinyan stroked her shoulder gently and whispered, "Don't worry, we will find a solution." His tone was calm and firm, like a shot of adrenaline injected into Su Li's heart.

The atmosphere in the conference room was serious and solemn. Gu Jinyan, Su Li, and the family consultant and policy consultant sat opposite each other.

"Mr. Gu, there are complaints within the family about your decision. They think you are too radical and may harm the interests of the family." Although the family consultant is old, every word he speaks is wise and goes straight to the core of the problem.

The policy consultant is a shrewd and capable middle-aged woman. She pushed her glasses and added: "The current policy environment has indeed caused a certain impact on traditional industries. Transformation and upgrading is imperative."

"I understand." Gu Jinyan nodded slightly and handed over a document. "This is the development plan that Su Li and I jointly drew up. Please take a look."

Su Li's heartbeat suddenly quickened. This plan was the result of their countless days and nights of hard work. Whether it could be recognized would determine their future.

The family consultant and policy advisor carefully flipped through the documents, their brows sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed. In the documents, Su Li and Gu Jinyan did not avoid the existing problems of the family business, but faced the challenges head-on and proposed a series of innovative business plans. They suggested cooperating with emerging companies, introducing advanced technology and management concepts, and actively expanding overseas markets to seek new growth points.

"Cooperate with 'Innovative Technology' and enter the field of artificial intelligence? This is a bold idea..." The family consultant muttered to himself and fell into deep thought.

The policy advisor showed great interest in the plan to expand overseas markets. She asked: "The Southeast Asian market has huge potential. How do you plan to develop it?"

Su Li and Gu Jinyan took turns to explain their ideas. Every data and every step was carefully considered. As time passed, the atmosphere in the conference room gradually changed subtly.

Finally, the family consultant put down the documents in his hand and looked at Gu Jinyan with a sharp gaze: "I see your determination and courage in this plan..." He paused and turned his gaze to Su Li, "Especially you, Su Li, you have given the family business a brand new perspective."

Su Li felt relieved and a relieved smile appeared on her face.

The policy advisor also expressed his approval and made suggestions on some details.

After the meeting, the family consultant stopped Gu Jinyan, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "The future of the family is in the hands of you young people."

Gu Jinyan and Su Li looked at each other and saw the light of hope in each other's eyes.

However, this is just the beginning, the real challenge is still to come...

That night, Gu Jinyan received an email from a family member. He clicked on it and his expression instantly became serious. "They..."

Gu Jinyan handed the email to Su Li with a gloomy expression, "They united and requested a family meeting to discuss the marriage again."

Su Li's heart sank suddenly. The content of the email and Gu Jinyan's expression both indicated that things were going to go against them. But she did not panic, but analyzed the situation calmly. "It seems that our performance in the meeting today made them feel threatened."

Gu Jinyan nodded. "We have touched the interests of some people, so they will naturally fight back. I just didn't expect that they would unite so quickly."

"But this also shows that our previous plan is effective. At least it has shaken some people." Su Li held Gu Jinyan's hand and gave him strength. "We still have a chance."

Gu Jinyan held Su Li's hand in return, a determined light flashed in his eyes, "Yes, we still have a chance."

The Gu family mansion was brightly lit, and the family meeting was held in a depressing atmosphere.

"Master, Gu Jinyan's approach is too radical. He doesn't consider the interests of the family at all!"

"That's right, he is going to lead the Gu family into an abyss of no return!"

"Marriage is the only way out. We can't hesitate any longer!"

Voices of opposition rose one after another, and family members were extremely excited, as if Gu Jinyan had committed some heinous crime.

The head of the Gu family, who was sitting in the main seat, had a gloomy face and said nothing. His eyes swept over Gu Jinyan and Su Li, and finally fell on the plan that Gu Jinyan handed to him.

He had read this plan before. It was undeniable that Gu Jinyan and Su Li's idea was bold and feasible. But he was more concerned about the stability of the family. The marriage could bring him huge benefits and consolidate his position in the family.

However, the situation at today's meeting forced him to reconsider. After seeing Gu Jinyan and Su Li's plan, the attitudes of those family members who originally supported the marriage obviously changed.

"Master, I think this plan is worth a try." A family elder broke the silence.

"That's right. Instead of pinning the family's future on marriage, it's better to let the young people fight for it." Another elder also expressed his support.

More and more people began to side with Gu Jinyan and Su Li, which made the head of the Gu family look even uglier.

He stood up suddenly, slammed the plan in his hand on the table, and shouted angrily: "Enough!"

The conference room fell silent instantly, and everyone's eyes were focused on the head of the Gu family.

"I need to think about this again."

After saying that, he turned away, leaving everyone looking at each other in bewilderment.

Gu Jinyan and Su Li looked at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes.

They knew that this was just the first step, but a crucial one.

"Let's go to the study," Gu Jinyan took Su Li's hand, "I have something to say to Grandpa..."

Gu Jinyan took Su Li's hand and walked quickly towards the study room of the head of the Gu family. He knew that this was their last chance and they had to seize every opportunity to convince Grandpa.

The door of the study was half open. Gu Jinyan knocked gently, and after hearing a low "Come in", he pushed the door open and walked in.

The head of the Gu family was standing by the window with his back to them. He looked bleak and seemed to have aged a lot in an instant. When he heard the footsteps, he slowly turned around, his cloudy eyes filled with complicated emotions.

"Grandpa..." Su Li called softly, with a hint of worry in her tone.

"What are you doing here?" The head of the Gu family spoke in an indifferent tone, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

"Grandpa, we just want to have a good talk with you." Gu Jinyan stepped forward and said sincerely, "We know you are doing this for the good of the family, but marriage is not the only way out. We have the confidence and ability to lead the Gu family to a more glorious future."

"You?" The head of the Gu family sneered, "What guarantee do you have? Just relying on the insignificant shares you have now? Or relying on your unrealistic plan?"

"Grandpa, our loyalty to our family is evident to all!" Su Li said excitedly, "Everything we do is for the Gu family and for you!"

"Loyalty?" The head of the Gu family seemed to have heard a joke. "If you are really loyal, you should obey the family's arrangements instead of acting on your own and putting the family in danger!"

"Grandpa, we understand your painstaking efforts and the responsibilities on your shoulders." Gu Jinyan clenched his fists and said firmly, "But we also have our own persistence. We can't give up our love and our lives for the sake of family interests!"

"Love?" The head of the Gu family shook his head. "In the face of family interests, love is worthless!"

"No, Grandpa, you are wrong!" Su Li retorted, "Love is the greatest power in the world. It can overcome all obstacles and create all miracles!"

Su Li walked to Gu Jinyan, held his hand tightly, and looked at the head of the Gu family with a firm gaze, "We believe that as long as we work together, we can overcome all difficulties, protect our family, and protect our love!"

The study fell into silence.

After a long while, the head of the Gu family sighed, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "You guys go, let me be alone for a while."

Gu Jinyan and Su Li looked at each other, knowing that nothing they said would help at this moment, so they could only leave the study silently.

Outside the study, the moonlight was like water, shining on the two people, casting long shadows.

"Are we...really out of options?" Su Li's voice was choked with sobs.

Gu Jinyan embraced Su Li in his arms, gently stroked her hair, and said softly but firmly, "No, Li'er, we still have a chance. Tomorrow is a new beginning..."

The next morning, the first ray of sunlight penetrated the clouds and sprinkled on the earth. In the study of the Gu family's old house, Gu Jinyan and Su Li stood side by side in front of the window, welcoming this new day. There was a trace of fatigue on their faces, but more of determination and hope.

Gu Jinyan gently held Su Li's hand, his tone gentle but firm: "Li'er, are you ready?"

Su Li turned to look at him, with a determined light in her eyes: "Well, let's go together!"

The atmosphere in the Gujia Company Building was very different today. Downstairs, various media reporters had gathered early, with their cameras pointed at the company's gate, waiting for the upcoming press conference.

The press conference was packed. Gu Jinyan was dressed in a black suit, with a stern look on his face, and exuded a strong aura. He stood on the podium, glanced at the people below, and slowly said, "Everyone, thank you for attending the press conference of Gu Group today."

His voice was deep and powerful, and every word he spoke was full of confidence and strength. The audience held their breath and listened carefully to every word he said.

Gu Jinyan briefly introduced the company's current situation and strategic planning for future development. He emphasized that the company will launch a series of new development projects, including entering the new energy field and increasing investment in scientific and technological research and development.

Every word he said was carefully considered, and every project was carefully market researched and feasibility analyzed. These projects not only conform to the national policy orientation, but also conform to the trend of the times. More importantly, they are full of hope and future.

As Gu Jinyan gave his speech, the atmosphere in the audience gradually became more heated. Reporters raised their cameras to record this historic moment. Investors' eyes sparkled with excitement, as if they saw a huge business opportunity.

After the press conference, the stock price of Gu's Group rose. Market confidence gradually recovered, and investors were full of expectations for the future of Gu's Group.

In the old house of the Gu family, the head of the Gu family sat in the study, watching the live press conference on TV, with a complex light flashing in his turbid eyes.

"Master, look..." The butler stood aside, hesitant to speak.

The head of the Gu family waved his hand, signaling him not to speak, his eyes still fixed on the TV screen.

On the screen, Gu Jinyan and Su Li stood side by side, accepting interviews from reporters. Their faces were filled with confident smiles, like two rising stars, illuminating the entire Gu family.

The head of the Gu family looked at this scene with mixed feelings. He knew that he was old and it was time to let go...

At night, Gu Jinyan and Su Li returned to the old house. The door of the study was half-open, and a warm light shone through. Gu Jinyan held Su Li's hand, motioned her to wait a moment, and then walked in alone.
