Su Li and Gu Jinyan stood side by side in front of the French window of Gu Jinyan's office, overlooking the entire R&D center. The afterglow of the setting sun fell on them, gilding their figures with a layer of gold.

"Look at these resumes," Gu Jinyan handed a stack of documents to Su Li, "these senior engineers have excellent backgrounds, but why did they leave good jobs behind and choose to come to our company?"

Su Li took the document and read it carefully, frowning slightly. The contents of these resumes were indeed impeccable, but because of this, they seemed a bit deliberate, as if they were trying to cover up something.

"The flow of talent is normal, but it is indeed a bit strange that they all appeared at this time." Su Li pondered, "Especially since the companies these people worked for before were all our competitors."

Gu Jinyan nodded, a sharp look flashing in his eyes. "I asked the Finance Department to retrieve the project fund flow records for the past few months, and found that the whereabouts of a sum of funds was unknown."

"You are suspicious..." Su Li's heart tightened.

"I'm just suspicious, there's no solid evidence yet." Gu Jinyan interrupted Su Li, "I've asked Lawyer Lin to investigate, and I believe there will be results soon."

Lawyer Lin is the legal advisor of Gu Group and a long-time friend of Gu Jinyan. He is known for his rigorous and foolproof work.

Sure enough, the next morning, Lawyer Lin brought shocking news.

"There is a traitor in our company." Lawyer Lin said solemnly, "I have found out that the funds were transferred to an overseas account, and the holder of this account is..."

Lawyer Lin paused, glanced at Su Li and Gu Jinyan, and slowly said a name.

"It's Manager Wang from the Marketing Department."

Su Li and Gu Jinyan looked at each other, and saw shock and disbelief in each other's eyes. Manager Wang has worked in the company for many years, and has always been conscientious and highly respected. How could it be him?

"I have solid evidence. He admitted that he was bribed by a competitor and stole our company's new product development information." Lawyer Lin's voice was low and powerful. "I have called the police, and the police will take action against him soon."

Before Su Li and Gu Jinyan had time to digest the news, a crisis public relations expert rushed over and said to them in a serious tone, "The news has been leaked, and there are many negative comments about our company on the Internet. We must hold a press conference immediately to clarify the facts and restore the impact."

A sudden storm is quietly approaching the Gu Group...

Su Li and Gu Jinyan immediately set out to investigate the scope and extent of Manager Wang's theft of information. Gu Jinyan mobilized the company's top technical personnel to conduct a carpet check of all systems. Su Li started with Manager Wang's interpersonal relationships and tried to find the contact behind him.

As the investigation deepened, a shocking fact surfaced: Manager Wang was just the tip of the iceberg. There were other spies lurking inside the company. They were like ghosts, hiding in various departments and stealing the company's core secrets.

"This leaked information is enough to allow our competitors to overtake us in a short period of time." Gu Jinyan's face was solemn, with a hint of fatigue in his tone. He had not slept for several days and nights, and had been dealing with this sudden crisis.

Su Li looked at him distressedly, gently held his hand, and comforted him: "Don't worry, we will find all the traitors and bring them to justice."

Gu Jinyan held her hand tightly with his backhand, his eyes firm: "I have decided to perform a thorough 'operation' on the company."

"Surgery?" Su Li looked at him puzzledly.

"I will comprehensively upgrade the company's information security system, hire the most professional network security team, and build an iron wall defense system." Gu Jinyan's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness, "At the same time, I will strengthen the background checks on all employees and never allow such things to happen again."

Su Li understood that this "operation" was imperative, even if it would cost a huge price.

At the same time, in a dim office in the company, a figure was frantically deleting files from his computer. His forehead was covered with beads of sweat and his eyes were filled with fear and anxiety, like a trapped animal that was cornered.

"Damn it! How could they find out so quickly?" He cursed under his breath, his fingers tapping the keyboard frantically.

Suddenly, the office door was pushed open. He looked up in horror, and when he saw the person coming, his face turned pale instantly...

The office door was slammed open. Under the dim light, Gu Jinyan's tall figure carried a strong sense of oppression, which made the man huddled in front of the computer feel a chill in his heart and pause the movements of his hands.

"Manager Wang, are you still working overtime so late?" There was no emotion in Gu Jinyan's voice, but it made Manager Wang's back soak with cold sweat in an instant.

"Boss Gu..." Manager Wang trembled as he tried to explain, but his voice stopped when he saw Su Li, who he had once regarded as a gentle vase, behind Gu Jinyan. Su Li's eyes were calm and sharp, as if she could see through all his disguises and secrets.

"Manager Wang, do you need me to help you delete the things in the computer?" Su Li opened her red lips slightly, her tone was indifferent, but it was like thunder exploding in Manager Wang's ears.

He knew that he was finished.

Gu Jinyan's cold gaze swept across his flustered face, and then fell on the computer screen in front of him. On the screen, in the folder that had not been closed in time, the words "commercial secrets" were clearly written.

"It seems that Manager Wang is very enthusiastic about his work and has been working hard for the company all night." Gu Jin said in a cold tone with a hint of sarcasm.

Manager Wang's face was pale, his lips moved but he could not make any sound. He knew that all his excuses were meaningless.

At this time, a middle-aged man walked out from behind Gu Jinyan. He pushed his glasses and glanced at Manager Wang with a sharp gaze behind the lenses. He said calmly and decisively, "Manager Wang, I am a crisis public relations expert hired by the company. Now, you need to cooperate with our investigation."

Faced with the sudden crisis, Gu Jinyan made a prompt decision and hired a team of top crisis public relations experts in the industry. Under the advice of the experts, they decided to temporarily block the news to avoid causing unnecessary panic, and at the same time secretly launched an investigation to uncover all the hidden ghosts.

Gu Jinyan and Su Li stood side by side in front of the French window of the office, overlooking the brightly lit city night scene. Their faces were a little solemn. This sudden storm made them realize that in the battlefield of the shopping mall without gunpowder, crises are everywhere.

"We have just started this battle." Gu Jinyan held Su Li's hand tightly, his tone firm, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

Su Lihui held his hand, her eyes equally firm: "I believe in you, we will get through this together."

As the night deepened, Gu Jinyan and Su Li remained in the office. In front of them, there was a thick stack of investigation materials, each page of which recorded the information of an employee. They needed to find the enemies hiding in the dark.

Su Li rubbed her sore eyes, put down a document in her hand, and leaned back in her chair tiredly. Seeing this, Gu Jinyan reached out and took her into his arms, gently stroking her long hair, and whispered to comfort her: "If you are tired, take a rest for a while, just leave these things to me."

"I'm not tired," Su Li shook her head, sat up straight from his arms, and looked determined, "We must find the mastermind as soon as possible and not let them succeed."

Gu Jinyan looked at her tired but still determined expression, and a warm current surged in his heart. He held her hand and said gently but firmly: "Don't worry, I will take care of everything and will not let them hurt you and the company."

Su Li nodded, picked up another document, and scanned the densely packed text on it. Suddenly, her eyes fell on a name and her brows furrowed slightly.

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

Su Li pointed at the name, and said with a hint of doubt: "I seem to have seen this person somewhere."

Gu Jinyan took the document and looked at the name carefully. After thinking for a moment, he picked up his phone and dialed a number. After whispering a few words, he hung up the phone and said to Su Li, "I have asked someone to check it out. There will be news soon."

As time passed, the atmosphere in the office became more and more tense. Finally, Gu Jinyan's cell phone rang. He answered the call and a deep voice came from the receiver.

"Boss Gu, I found out that this person is..."

The voice on the other end of the phone became lower and lower, and Gu Jinyan's face became uglier and uglier, and his hand holding the phone tightened a little. Su Li's heart also lifted up, she could feel that something was happening quietly, and this thing would bring them greater challenges.

"I understand." Gu Jinyan hung up the phone calmly, but his eyes became unusually sharp, like the calm before the storm.

Su Li looked at him worriedly and asked softly, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Gu Jinyan took a deep breath, put down his phone, looked at Su Li, and said word by word: "We may have underestimated our opponent..."
