Su Li held the phone, her fingertips felt cold, and the light from the phone screen reflected her slightly pale face. Gu Jinyan took the phone from her, his deep eyes swept over the short but threatening text, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"It seems that we have touched a sore spot for some people."

Su Li took a deep breath, suppressed the surging emotions in her heart, and said with a firm look: "We must investigate thoroughly and cannot let them get away with it."

Gu Jinyan looked at her with appreciation, then called his assistant and briefly explained a few things. Soon, an investigation team composed of Gu Group's elite backbones was secretly established. They will conduct an in-depth investigation into the relationship between competitors and bid evaluation experts, leaving no clues unturned.

The investigation team was working intensively and orderly. Su Li and Gu Jinyan were also busy, reviewing a large amount of information and analyzing every detail, trying to find a breakthrough.

"Mr. Gu, Ms. Su, look at this." Xiao Li, the data clerk, pointed at the computer screen with a hint of excitement in his tone.

Su Li and Gu Jinyan immediately surrounded him. The screen showed an encrypted email, which Xiao Li cracked with his skillful hands, revealing the contents of the email. The email contained a record of correspondence between a competitor's executives and one of the bid evaluation experts, which involved insider trading in the project bidding, and the evidence was irrefutable.

"Great!" Su Li couldn't help but cheer in a low voice. This email was the most powerful evidence they had, enough to prove that their competitors had engaged in unfair competition during the bidding process.

Gu Jinyan also showed a satisfied smile on his face. He patted Xiao Li on the shoulder and said approvingly: "Well done!"

However, the joy of victory did not last long. At this moment, Gu Jinyan's phone rang again, and an unfamiliar number appeared on the screen. He answered the call, and a deep voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Mr. Gu, I hope you can understand that there are some things that you cannot interfere with. I advise you to..."

The voice on the other end of the phone stopped abruptly, and Gu Jinyan's face became extremely gloomy...

The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly stopped, leaving only a busy tone, but Gu Jinyan's face became extremely gloomy. This call was undoubtedly a warning, and the other party tried to stop their investigation by threatening.

"What do they want to do?" Su Li noticed the change in Gu Jinyan's mood and asked worriedly.

Gu Jinyan took a deep breath and held the phone tightly. "They want us to shut up, but they made a wrong calculation." He threw the phone on the table, a sharp look in his eyes. "We can't let them succeed. We must submit the evidence to the relevant departments as soon as possible."

Su Li nodded firmly, and the two immediately began to prepare the report materials. They compiled all the evidence collected by the investigation team into a book, including the key email, the financial transaction records of relevant personnel, etc., striving to make the evidence conclusive and impeccable.

However, just as they were about to submit the report materials to the relevant departments, they found that things were not as smooth as they had imagined. There seemed to be a ghost inside the Gu Group, some key information was leaked, and the investigation team's actions were repeatedly obstructed.

"Mr. Gu, we found that the company's internal network system had been hacked and some data had been stolen." The head of the technical department reported to Gu Jinyan with a serious expression.

Gu Jinyan frowned, it seemed that the competitors had noticed their actions and started to take measures to interfere. He knew that a war without gunpowder smoke had begun.

"Strengthen the company's internal network security defense and thoroughly investigate the source of the leak." Gu Jinyan gave the order decisively. At the same time, he arranged a more secret channel to send the reporting materials to the relevant departments.

Su Li also felt unprecedented pressure, but she did not back down. Instead, she stood more firmly beside Gu Jinyan and faced the storm with him. She knew that justice might be late, but it would never be absent.

In order to further collect evidence, Su Li decided to go to the bidding evaluation site of the original project in person, hoping to find more clues. However, just as she was driving to her destination, a black car suddenly rushed out from the side and hit her car violently...

The black sedan rushed straight towards Su Li's car like a beast out of control. The harsh sound of brakes broke the silence, and Su Li felt dizzy and the huge impact made her eyes go black. When she regained consciousness, she found herself trapped in the deformed car, the airbag popped out, and a strong smell of gasoline filled the air.

"Damn it!" Su Li cursed inwardly and struggled to unbuckle her seat belt, only to find it stuck. Her heart was beating wildly, cold sweat trickled down her forehead, and fear came over her like a tide. At this moment, the car window was smashed from outside, and Gu Jinyan's anxious face came into view.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here!" Gu Jinyan carried her out of the car and held her tightly in his arms. His aura made her feel extremely at ease, as if all her fears had disappeared.

"I'm fine." Su Li leaned on his shoulder, her voice trembling slightly.

Gu Jinyan placed her on the side of the road and checked her carefully, and was relieved to make sure she was not injured. His eyes became sharp, and this "accident" was obviously not accidental.

"You go back first, leave this to me." Gu Jinyan's tone left no room for doubt.

Su Li knew that staying here would only distract him, so she nodded and turned to leave. Her back looked particularly thin in the sunset, but it could not hide her inner determination.

After watching Su Li leave, Gu Jinyan turned and walked towards the car that caused the accident. The car door opened and a tall man walked out. He was an executive of a rival company.

"Mr. Gu, what a coincidence, how come we meet here?" The man had a hypocritical smile on his face, as if what happened just now had nothing to do with him.

Gu Jinyan sneered, his eyes as sharp as a hawk: "Stop pretending, did you do this?"

"Mr. Gu, you are joking. I don't understand what you are saying." The man still pretended to be stupid.

"I advise you to stop, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless." Gu Jinyan's voice was cold, without a trace of emotion.

"Mr. Gu, business is like a battlefield. Success or failure depends on one's ability." The man was not afraid at all. Instead, he looked at him provocatively.

"Okay, very good." Gu Jinyan laughed in anger, "I hope you won't regret it in the future." After saying that, he turned and left without any hesitation.

As night fell, Gu Jinyan and Su Li returned home. In the study, an anonymous email lay quietly on the computer desktop. Gu Jinyan clicked on the email, and a line of blood-red words suddenly appeared on the screen: "If you don't want your secret to be made public, stop the investigation, otherwise..."

At the end of the email was a photo. It was the wedding photo of Su Li and Gu Jinyan. Someone had drawn a big cross on the photo with a red pen. It was shocking...

In the study, the air seemed to freeze. Gu Jinyan's face was terribly gloomy, and there was a cold light flashing in his deep eyes. The veins on the back of his hand that tightly grasped the mouse were bulging, as if he wanted to crush the mouse. Su Li stood behind him, her slender fingers gently resting on his shoulders, silently conveying her concern and support.

"They are provoking me." Su Li's voice was calm and firm, "But we must not let them succeed."

Gu Jinyan took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He turned around and took Su Li into his arms, his deep voice carrying a hint of fatigue: "I'm sorry for involving you."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Su Li raised her head and looked at him firmly. "We are husband and wife now. We are in the same boat and have to face all the storms."

A warm current surged in Gu Jinyan's heart. He lowered his head and kissed Su Li's forehead. His eyes gradually became firm: "Don't worry, I will definitely protect you and won't let them hurt you in the slightest."

In the following days, Gu Jinyan and Su Li began a more in-depth investigation. They secretly visited several bid evaluation experts and obtained key evidence from the company's internal data clerk. The evidence showed that the executives of the competitor company had privately contacted the bid evaluation experts many times and bribed them through various means in order to manipulate the bid evaluation results.

"How audacious!" Su Li looked at the evidence in his hand and said angrily, "They actually violated the law so blatantly. They simply don't take the law seriously!"

"They think they can cover the sky with one hand like this," Gu Jinyan sneered, "but they are wrong. Justice may be late, but it will never be absent!"

Su Li and Gu Jinyan looked at each other, and saw firm faith in each other's eyes. They knew that this battle had just begun...

"I have contacted a lawyer," Gu Jinyan said solemnly, "Tomorrow, we will submit the evidence to the relevant authorities."

Su Li nodded, with a determined light in her eyes: "I believe that good will prevail over evil, and we will definitely win!"

In the dead of night, Gu Jinyan and Su Li stood side by side in front of the French window, overlooking the night view of the city. In the distance, neon lights flickered, traffic was heavy, and the prosperous scene could not cover up the truth of the undercurrent.

"Are you ready?" Gu Jinyan's voice was low and firm.

Su Li turned to look at him, a confident smile on her lips: "Of course."

The moonlight outside the window shines on them, as if they are covered with a layer of silver armor. They will join hands to fight this storm...
