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

In the following days, the atmosphere in Gu Group was like a taut string, so oppressive that it made people breathless. Employees could feel the tense atmosphere of impending storm, and the work pace became more compact. Su Li and Gu Jinyan were even busier, as they had to handle the company's daily affairs 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."

In the following period of time, Lin Feng analyzed the current situation in detail and formulated a detailed counterattack plan based on the attack methods of Wang Group and the mysterious businessman.

"They are now trying to attack us through public opinion. We can't just sit there and wait for death." Lin Feng pointed to the negative news on the document, "We need to take the initiative to clarify the facts and change the public's view of us."

"Consultant Lin is right. We can't let them lead us by the nose." Su Li agreed, "We can hold a press conference to publicly respond to these questions and announce our company's reform results and future plans."

Gu Jinyan nodded, "Just do as you say. I will arrange for the public relations department to be prepared."

However, just as they were actively preparing to fight back, the mysterious businessman made another move. He publicly accused Gu's family business of poor management in the media, which led to the company's declining performance, and claimed that he had evidence to prove that Gu's family business had violated regulations.

As soon as the news came out, it caused an uproar. Public opinion shifted again, and doubts and criticisms about Gu's business continued.

"This guy is so despicable!" Su Li was so angry that his face turned pale, "He wants to kill us!"

Gu Jinyan's face turned pale, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, "Since he wants to play, we will play with him to the end!"

Gu Jinyan slammed the document in his hand on the table with a loud noise. His deep eyes seemed to be burning with rage. "Does he really think he can defeat us like this? He really underestimates the Gu Group!"

Su Li gently held his hand and gave him a soothing look, "Jin Yan, calm down. We can't lose our composure." She took a deep breath and said firmly, "Hold a press conference. I want everyone to know that Gu's is not a lamb to be slaughtered!"

The next day, the conference room on the top floor of the Gu Group Building was packed with reporters from major media outlets. Flashes of light flashed one after another, illuminating the entire venue as bright as day. Su Li, dressed in a neat business suit, stood on the podium, facing countless cameras. She remained calm and composed, and her clear voice was clearly heard in every corner.

"Dear media friends, on behalf of the Gu Group, I would like to make a solemn statement in response to the recent malicious slander and false reports..." Su Li refuted the mysterious businessman's accusations against Gu one by one, and announced the company's recent reform achievements and future development plans.

Her confident and calm performance, as well as the real data provided by Gu's company, surprised many reporters present. The media, who were originally prepared to watch the excitement, also began to seriously examine the truth of this business struggle.

"Mr. Su, what do you think of the identity and motives of this mysterious businessman?" a reporter asked sharply.

Su Li smiled slightly, "We are not in a position to reveal the identity of this gentleman, but his purpose is obvious. He wants to annex Gu's through improper means." Her eyes were firm, "But I can tell you that Gu's will never succumb to any pressure. We will use legal weapons to safeguard our legitimate rights and interests!"

After the press conference, Gu's statement quickly dominated the headlines of major media outlets, and public opinion began to reverse. Many people expressed sympathy for Gu's experience and began to question the true purpose of the mysterious businessman.

At the same time, the mysterious businessman who had been hiding behind the scenes looked at the comments online with a terribly gloomy face. He did not expect Gu's counterattack to be so quick, and he did not expect Su Li to be so difficult to deal with.

"It seems that I underestimated you." He murmured in a low voice, with a hint of viciousness in his eyes, "But the game has just begun..."

Gu Jinyan looked at the video of the mysterious businessman being interviewed on the computer screen, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Since you want to play, then we will accompany you to the end." He turned to look at Su Li, with a firm light flashing in his eyes, "Notify the legal team and prepare to sue..."

Gu Jinyan's legal team acted quickly and immediately filed a lawsuit against the mysterious businessman after collecting enough evidence. The indictment detailed the mysterious businessman's crimes such as using improper means to manipulate the market, spreading false information, and maliciously suppressing competitors, and asked the court to issue an injunction to prevent him from continuing to acquire shares of Gu Group.

The news shook the entire business community. This sudden lawsuit brought this business struggle, which was originally hidden in the dark, into the light of day.

The mysterious businessman obviously did not expect Gu Jinyan to be so decisive. He originally thought that after suffering a heavy blow, Gu's would choose to keep quiet and compromise privately. However, Gu Jinyan's tough attitude completely angered him.

"Humph, if you don't accept my toast, you'll have to pay me back!" The mysterious businessman pressed the cigar in his hand hard into the ashtray and ordered the person on the other end of the phone, "Contact me the best legal team. I'm going to make them lose miserably!"

Soon, the two sides entered into a tense court confrontation.

In court, Gu Jinyan's legal team stated the facts in a clear and orderly manner and provided a large amount of evidence to prove that the mysterious businessman's acquisition behavior involved illegal and irregular operations, which seriously damaged the interests of the Gu Group and the market order.

The legal team hired by the mysterious businessman was not to be outdone. They used eloquent words to try to explain the mysterious businessman's behavior as normal business competition and refute the accusations made by the Gu Group.

The two sides exchanged sharp words, neither side giving in. The reporters in the audience were staring at every detail in the courtroom, fearing that they would miss any exciting moment.

"Mr. Su, are you confident about this lawsuit?" After the trial, a reporter seized the opportunity and asked Su Li as he walked out of the court.

Su Li smiled slightly, with a confident light in her eyes, "I believe that the law is fair, and good will prevail over evil."

However, just when everyone thought that the lawsuit would last for a long time, an unexpected change suddenly occurred...

Late at night, an identical envelope appeared on the desks of Su Li and Gu Jinyan. There was no signature on the envelope, only the words "Su Li's Personal Letter" and "Gu Jinyan's Personal Letter" were written.

Gu Jinyan opened the envelope, took out the letter inside, quickly glanced through it, frowned slightly, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Su Li noticed his strangeness and asked softly.

Gu Jinyan handed her the letter in his hand and said, "Read it yourself."

Su Li took the letter and saw only one sentence on it:

"If you want to reconcile, come see me." After reading the letter, Su Li's beautiful eyes flashed with surprise, and then she sneered and threw the letter on the table: "It seems that he can't sit still anymore."

Gu Jinyan's face was solemn, and his slender fingers tapped the table lightly, making a steady and rhythmic sound. This was his habitual action when thinking. "The longer this lawsuit lasts, the more disadvantageous it will be for him. Now that he is actively seeking peace, it seems that he wants to stop the loss as soon as possible."

"His plan is a good one," Su Li snorted coldly, "He thinks he can get away with it like this. He really underestimates us."

A hint of admiration flashed in Gu Jinyan's deep eyes. Su Li's ability to stand on her own during this period made him look at her with new eyes. The little woman who once needed his protection everywhere has now grown into a partner who can fight alongside him.

"What do you want to do?" Gu Jinyan gave the decision to Su Li.

Su Li pondered for a moment, then opened her red lips and said, "Since he wants to talk, let's give him a chance. However, the place and time of the talks must be decided by us."

Gu Jinyan nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Su Li picked up the phone and called her assistant: "Please arrange it for me, tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock, at..."

She paused, her eyes met Gu Jinyan's, and a bold plan gradually formed in their minds.

"In..." Su Li's lips curled up with a confident smile, "Meet this mysterious 'friend' at the place where we first met."
