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

"Mr. Gu, I heard that your company's performance has recovered rapidly recently. It seems that Miss Su is really the lucky star of your company." A slightly greasy voice interrupted, breaking the originally harmonious atmosphere.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a short, fat man in a suit and tie holding a wine glass and looking at Su Li and Gu Jinyan with a hypocritical smile on his face.

"Mr. Wang, you're joking. This is the result of everyone's joint efforts." Gu Jinyan stood in front of Su Li calmly and responded politely.

Gu Jinyan was no stranger to this Mr. Wang, a dark horse who had risen rapidly in the industry in recent years. He was tough and had a rather mysterious style of doing things. He had tried to cooperate with the Gu family before, but was rejected by Gu Jinyan.

"Boss Gu is so modest. We have all witnessed Miss Su's ability." Boss Wang insisted, his eyes wandering greedily over Su Li. "If we can get Miss Su's guidance, our company will definitely benefit a lot."

"Mr. Wang, you're too polite. I'm just doing my best." Su Li smiled faintly and avoided Mr. Wang's sight calmly. She keenly felt that Mr. Wang didn't seem to come just to congratulate her.

After the banquet, Gu Jinyan received a call from the company's financial director.

"Mr. Gu, we noticed that the company's stock trading has been unusually active recently. It seems that someone is secretly buying up a large number of our shares." There was a hint of uneasiness in the CFO's voice.

"What?" Gu Jinyan's face darkened. "Find out who is behind this?"

“It’s not clear at the moment. The other party is hiding very deeply. We are tracing the source of funds.” The financial director replied.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Jinyan fell into deep thought. He knew that although the Gu family was seriously injured, its foundation was still there, and the recent performance recovery made many people jealous. It was reasonable for some people to take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

"What's wrong?" Su Li noticed Gu Jinyan's abnormality and asked softly.

Gu Jinyan briefly told Su Li the whole story. After listening, Su Li frowned slightly.

"It seems that beneath the calm surface, there are undercurrents that we are not aware of." Su Li pondered for a moment, "It seems that we have to prepare early..."

"Knock knock knock." At this time, the study door was knocked.

"Come in." Gu Jinyan said in a deep voice.

The assistant pushed the door open and walked in, holding a document in his hand, "Mr. Gu, this is what you wanted."

Gu Jinyan took the document, opened it, and his expression suddenly became more solemn. He handed the document to Su Li and said in a deep voice: "It seems that our guess is correct..."

The document contained the information of Wang Group and records of several recent large capital flows, and the destination of these funds was precisely the account that purchased Gu’s shares.

"It's him." A cold light flashed in Su Li's eyes. It seemed that Mr. Wang came to congratulate on the surface, but actually had other intentions.

"It seems that we still underestimated him." Gu Jinyan's face looked a little ugly. This Mr. Wang was more difficult to deal with than he imagined, and he was hiding more deeply.

"Does Mr. Wang have any grudge against our Gu family in the past?" Su Li asked. She keenly felt that this attack on the Gu family did not seem to be just for profit.

Gu Jinyan was silent for a moment before he slowly said, "I had someone check his background. His early rise to fame was very secretive. No one knows where he came from. All we know is that he is ruthless and does things by any means necessary. He has swallowed up many companies in just a few years and has many enemies in the industry."

"You mean, there might be someone else behind him?" Su Li immediately understood what Gu Jinyan meant.

Gu Jinyan nodded, "It's very likely, and this person is likely to have a grudge against our Gu family."

Just then, Su Li's cell phone rang. It was the expert who had helped her analyze industry trends before.

"Ms. Su, I have found some information about the Wang Group. You'd better come to my office. It's not convenient to talk on the phone..." The expert's tone was a little solemn, as if the matter was of great importance.

An hour later, Su Li and Gu Jinyan arrived at the expert's office.

The expert handed a document to Su Li, "I found out that the real controller behind the Wang Group is probably..."

The expert lowered his voice and said a name. Su Li and Gu Jinyan's faces suddenly became extremely ugly.

"How could it be him..." Su Li murmured to herself. This name represented a past of the Gu family that was too painful to look back on, and it was also the deepest pain in Gu Jinyan's heart.

"It seems that a storm is coming..." A sharp light flashed in Gu Jinyan's eyes, and he was ready for battle.

"Knock, knock, knock..." There was a sudden knock on the office door, and a hurried voice came from outside the door, "Mr. Gu, something bad has happened..."

"Mr. Gu, something bad has happened! Wang Group has suddenly significantly increased its holdings of our company's shares, and now the stock price has begun to fluctuate!" The secretary pushed the door open in a panic, his tone extremely anxious.

"You really can't hold your temper." Gu Jinyan sneered, his eyes full of ice. He turned to look at Su Li, his tone firm, "It seems we have to speed up."

Su Li nodded solemnly, "I will immediately arrange for people to strengthen the company's internal network security to prevent them from stealing confidential information. At the same time, I will have the public relations department prepared to respond to any possible public opinion crisis at any time."

Gu Jinyan looked at Su Li with appreciation and said, "Okay, I'll leave these matters to you. I'll contact some reliable shareholders and stabilize their emotions."

A war without the smoke of gunpowder quietly broke out within the Gu Group.

Gu Jinyan quickly stabilized the situation within the company and began to secretly investigate the real controller behind the Wang Group. Su Li used her keen business sense and personal connections to start a counterattack. She contacted several media outlets to expose some unknown business secrets of the Wang Group. At the same time, she also united several companies that were in competition with the Wang Group to jointly resist the Wang Group's hostile takeover.

Wang's Group's acquisition plan was thwarted, and the stock price began to fall. The mysterious businessman hiding behind the scenes noticed Gu Jinyan and Su Li's actions, and he realized that he had underestimated the couple's strength.

"It seems that I have to teach them a lesson." The mysterious businessman curled up a sinister smile and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.

A more dangerous contest is about to begin...

"咚咚-"

Two knocks on the door broke the silence of the office. Gu Jinyan's assistant walked in quickly and placed a gold-stamped envelope on his desk. "Mr. Gu, I received this this morning. The sender is unknown."

Gu Jinyan frowned slightly and picked up the envelope. There were only a few words written on it, "Gu Jinyan's personal letter", but no signature. He opened the envelope and pulled out a black card with only one sentence written in silver font on it:

“The game has just begun.”

The card slipped from Gu Jinyan's hand, and his expression became extremely solemn...

Gu Jinyan handed the black card to Su Li, his eyes full of coldness. The card trembled slightly at Su Li's fingertips, and she took a deep breath, trying to keep herself calm.

"It seems that our previous counterattack has completely angered him." Su Li's voice was low, with a barely perceptible tremor.

Gu Jinyan walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and overlooked the entire city. In his eyes, the tall buildings seemed to have turned into chess pieces on a chessboard, and he and Su Li were at the center of this war without the smoke of gunpowder.

"Since he wants to play, then we will play with him." Gu Jinyan turned around, his eyes flashing with determination, "I want to see how capable he is and how much trouble he can make!"

Su Li walked up to him, gently held his hand, and gave him silent support. "I believe in you, we can definitely overcome all difficulties."

Gu Jinyan held her hand tightly with his backhand, interlocking their fingers, as if they could draw strength from each other. "Well, let's face it together."

In the following days, the atmosphere in Gu Group became particularly heavy. Employees could feel the pressure of impending storm, and the work pace became more intense. Su Li and Gu Jinyan were even busier. They had to handle the daily affairs of the company while dealing with pressure from all sides.

"Mr. Gu, Mr. Su, this is the information we have recently collected about the Wang Group and the mysterious businessman." The assistant put a document on the table with a serious tone.

Gu Jinyan and Su Li looked through the documents, their brows furrowed more and more. The contents of the documents were shocking. The background of Wang Group and the mysterious businessman was far more complicated than they had imagined. They controlled huge resources and connections, and acted ruthlessly and unscrupulously.

"It seems that we have underestimated our opponent." Gu Jinyan closed the document, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

Su Li nodded, "We need to be more cautious and make a more thorough plan."

Just then, there was a knock on the office door, and a middle-aged man in a suit and gold-rimmed glasses walked in. His name was Lin Feng, a well-known corporate consultant in the industry, and an expert specially invited by Gu Jinyan to help them deal with this crisis.

"Boss Gu, Boss Su, I've heard of your names for a long time." Lin Feng smiled slightly, with a gleam in his eyes, "It seems that we have a tough battle to fight."

Su Li and Gu Jinyan looked at each other and saw firm belief in each other's eyes.
