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

The lights at the dinner were soft, the music was gentle, and the guests were drinking and chatting in twos and threes. The atmosphere was relaxed and joyful.

Gu Jinyan moved among the crowd with ease. He was elegant, well-spoken, and exuded the charm of a mature man. He had a good chat with several industry leaders, and there was no lack of prospects for future cooperation in the conversation. On the other side, Su Li, with her elegant temperament and decent conversation, quickly had a good chat with several ladies. They talked about fashion, art and charity. Su Li always found the right topic to make everyone feel comfortable.

However, beneath this seemingly relaxed atmosphere, there is an undercurrent.

In a corner of the banquet hall, Gu's Group's display area displays the company's latest products. These products embody the Gu's Group's efforts, and every detail strives for perfection, representing the brand image of Gu's Group. Gu Jinyan is full of confidence in his own products and believes that they will shine at this dinner.

At this time, a sneaky figure appeared near the display area. His eyes flickered, and he looked around vigilantly from time to time. After confirming that no one was paying attention, he quickly took out a beautifully packaged box from his pocket and walked straight to the display area.

"Remember, move quickly and don't let anyone find out!" A deep voice came from the corner, with a hint of ruthlessness in the tone.

"Understood, boss!" The man responded in a low voice, with a trace of cold sweat on his forehead. He took a deep breath, quickly opened the box in his hand, and exchanged the contents with a product on the display stand. The whole process took only a few seconds, and then he quickly stuffed the box into his pocket, turned around and disappeared into the crowd.

All of this was seen by competitor B who was hiding in the dark. He had a sinister smile on his face and a vicious gleam in his eyes.

"Gu Jinyan, let's see how you can turn things around this time!" He whispered to himself, his tone filled with the pleasure of revenge.

As time passed, the atmosphere of the dinner became more and more lively. Guests began to visit the exhibition area freely and admire the latest products of Gu Group.

"Mr. Gu, the design of your product is really unique. I'm very interested..." A middle-aged man pointed to a product on the display stand and said to Gu Jinyan beside him.

Gu Jinyan had a confident smile on his face and was about to introduce the details of the product to him, but suddenly he heard a commotion in the crowd...

A well-dressed lady was looking at a piece of jewelry on the display stand with great interest, while her companion whispered about the details of the product. Suddenly, the lady cried out softly, as if she had discovered something unusual.

"This... this doesn't seem to be real?" The lady pointed at the necklace in her hand, her tone full of surprise and confusion.

As soon as she finished speaking, the crowd around her suddenly started talking like a boiling pot.

"What? Fake?"

"No way, this is a product of Gu Group, how can it be fake?"

"That's right. Gu's Group is a leader in the industry. How could they destroy their reputation?"

……

Hearing the discussions in the crowd, Su Li and Gu Jinyan's hearts sank. They realized that something was wrong, and immediately pushed through the crowd and walked quickly towards the display area.

"What happened?" Gu Jinyan asked in a deep voice, scanning the crowd around him with sharp eyes.

"Mr. Gu, please take a look. There seems to be something wrong with this product." A middle-aged man who looked like a hotel manager pointed at the jewelry on the display stand, his tone a little panicked.

Gu Jinyan walked over and took a closer look, his face suddenly turned pale. The sample that was replaced was crudely made and made of inferior materials, which was completely different from the genuine product of Gu Group.

"Damn it!" Gu Jinyan cursed in a low voice. He knew that this was a conspiracy of his competitor, and the other party came prepared this time.

Su Li also discovered the problem. A cold light flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she was secretly shocked. The other party was able to replace the samples in public, which seemed to be premeditated.

"Jin Yan, what should we do now?" Su Li asked in a low voice, with a hint of worry in her tone.

"Don't worry, I will take care of this." Gu Jinyan held Su Li's hand and gave her a reassuring look.

He turned around, glanced at the crowd around him, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, please be quiet! I'm sorry that this happened, but I can assure you that this was definitely a deliberate frame-up! There is absolutely no quality problem with our Gu Group's products!"

The crowd suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at Gu Jinyan, waiting for his explanation.

Gu Jinyan took a deep breath and continued, "We will investigate this matter thoroughly and give everyone an explanation!"

After saying that, he turned around and said to the hotel manager beside him: "Immediately seal off the display area and notify the security personnel. No one is allowed to enter or leave without my permission!"

"Yes, Mr. Gu!" The hotel manager did not dare to delay and immediately went to execute the order.

At this moment, a sharp-eyed guest suddenly pointed in a certain direction in the crowd and shouted, "It's him! I saw that he switched the products!"

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and saw a man in a black suit trying to leave the banquet hall in a panic...

The hotel manager responded quickly, and immediately ordered the staff to block the display area, set up a cordon, and notified the security personnel to control the man who was identified. The banquet hall was in chaos, with whispers coming one after another, and the guests were speculating on the truth of the matter.

Gu Jinyan's face was grim, his eyes were sharp like an eagle, scanning everything around him, trying to find the mastermind from the clues. Su Li stood beside him, although she was a little flustered, she tried to stay calm and silently observed the reactions of the people around her.

"Mr. Gu, Ms. Su, I'm so sorry that you encountered this kind of thing in our hotel." A distinguished guest came forward with an apologetic tone. He is a long-term partner of the Gu Group and Gu Jinyan's uncle. His surname is Wang and he is highly respected in the business world.

"Uncle Wang, you're too serious. This is not the hotel's responsibility." Gu Jinyan responded politely.

"I heard that someone replaced your samples?" Mr. Wang asked in a low voice.

"Yes, Uncle Wang, we suspect it was a malicious frame-up by our competitors." Gu Jinyan said in a deep voice.

President Wang nodded, a gleam of light flashed in his deep eyes, "Gu's has been very popular recently, and it is inevitable that some people will be jealous and want to take the opportunity to suppress it. You must investigate this matter thoroughly and not let the mastermind behind it get away with it."

"Thank you Uncle Wang for your concern. We will definitely get to the bottom of this." Gu Jin said in a firm tone.

Mr. Wang pondered for a moment and said, "I know a private detective who is very reliable and may be able to help you." After that, he handed Gu Jinyan a business card.

Gu Jinyan took the business card and nodded gratefully.

After Mr. Wang left, Su Li whispered, "Jin Yan, it seems that this matter is more complicated than we thought."

Gu Jinyan clenched his fists, a cold light flashed in his eyes, "I will never let the mastermind go!"

Just as they were about to conduct an in-depth investigation, Gu Jinyan's phone suddenly vibrated, and an anonymous text message came into view: "I want to find the person who exchanged the sample. Come alone to the abandoned factory in the west of the city at 10 pm."

Gu Jinyan's expression changed slightly, and he immediately handed the text message to Su Li.

After reading the text message, Su Li frowned, with a trace of worry in her eyes: "Jin Yan, could this be a trap?"

"Whether it's a trap or not, we have to go." Gu Jin said firmly, "Perhaps, this is our only clue."

Su Li knew that Gu Jinyan would not change his decision easily, so she held his hand and said firmly: "I will go with you."

As night fell, the city was shrouded in a hazy light, and a black car drove silently towards the west of the city...
