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

Chapter 35 Be careful of the people around you

When Su Li arrived at the company, he called an emergency meeting with the project team members. In the meeting room, the atmosphere was solemn, and everyone's face was full of anxiety.

"Mr. Su, the current situation is very unfavorable to us. Our partners have lost trust in us. I'm afraid..." The marketing manager broke the silence first, his tone full of worry.

"I know, but we can't give up." Su Li said firmly, with confidence in her eyes. "I have carefully studied the needs of our partners, and I think we can start from..."

In the following time, Su Li elaborated on her ideas in detail. She proposed a brand new plan that not only met the needs of the partners, but also brought greater benefits to both parties.

In the meeting room, the originally solemn atmosphere gradually became lively. Everyone was attracted by Su Li's plan and expressed their opinions. After a heated discussion, all members of the project team finally agreed to adopt Su Li's plan.

A few days later, Su Li and her team members went to the partner company for negotiations with a new plan. In the conference room, the partner representative listened carefully to Su Li's explanation, with a surprised expression on his face.

"Mr. Su, your proposal is very creative. We see your sincerity." The representative of the partner nodded and said, "We will seriously consider your proposal and give you a reply as soon as possible."

After Su Li and her team members left the partner company, Tang Wan received the news. She learned that Su Li had proposed a new plan and had been approved by the partner representative, and her heart was immediately filled with jealousy and uneasiness.

"No, I absolutely cannot let her succeed!" Tang Wan gritted her teeth and said, with a sinister light flashing in her eyes. She picked up her phone and dialed a number, "Hello, it's me... I need you to do me a favor..."

A few days later, at a high-end social dinner, Su Li met Tang Wan again. Tang Wan walked up to Su Li with a glass of champagne and a hypocritical smile on her face.

"Su Li, I heard that you have performed well on the project recently. Congratulations." Tang Wan said with a hint of sarcasm in her tone.

"Thank you." Su Li responded indifferently, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.

"But..." Tang Wan deliberately lowered her voice and whispered into Su Li's ear, "I heard that your plan seems to have some problems..."

Su Li's heart tightened, but her face remained calm, "Oh? Really? I wonder what Miss Bai is referring to..."

Tang Wan smiled mysteriously and said in a low voice: "I heard that the core technology in your proposal is suspected of plagiarism, and it seems that you have bribed the project leader of the partner..."

Su Li's heart sank suddenly. She knew that Tang Wan was deliberately spreading rumors in an attempt to destroy her and Gu Group's efforts. But she did not panic, but calmly asked back: "Miss Bai, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Do you have any evidence?"

Tang Wan was shocked by Su Li's calmness, but she quickly regained her composure and said with pretended regret: "Su Li, I know you are always smart and capable, but this time, you may have been taken advantage of. You should think carefully about who wants to harm you..."

After saying that, Tang Wan picked up the wine glass, turned around and left, leaving Su Li standing there alone.

Su Li was not frightened by Tang Wan's words. She knew that a person who is innocent will be innocent. As long as it was something she had not done, no one could frame her.

In the next few days, Su Li stepped up the progress of the project while secretly investigating the evidence of Tang Wan spreading rumors. Su Li finally found out through investigation that Tang Wan had bribed an employee in the company, stole her plan, tampered with it, and then anonymously reported it to the partner.

After Su Li sorted out all the evidence, she decided to expose Tang Wan's true identity in public at a charity dinner.

On the day of the charity dinner, Tang Wan appeared in front of everyone in a gorgeous dress, becoming the focus of the whole audience. Su Li, wearing a simple and elegant dress, stood low-key in the crowd, observing Tang Wan's every move.

Halfway through the dinner, Su Li walked to the center of the stage, picked up the microphone, and said with a smile: "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I am honored to take this opportunity to share something with you..."

Tang Wan was originally chatting and laughing with several socialites, but after hearing Su Li's voice, her expression changed slightly and she turned to look at the center of the stage.

Su Li's eyes swept across the room, and finally landed on Tang Wan. A meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she continued, "Recently, I found that someone was spreading rumors behind my back, trying to destroy the reputation of me and Gu Group. After my investigation, I found the mastermind behind it, and it was..."

Having said this, Su Li deliberately paused. Everyone's eyes were focused on her and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Tang Wan's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and an ominous premonition came to her mind.

Su Li took a deep breath and said word by word: "It's Miss Bai!"

As soon as the words fell, the whole audience was in an uproar, and everyone cast incredible eyes at Tang Wan. Tang Wan's face was pale, and she wanted to explain, but found that she was speechless.

Su Li displayed the evidence in her hand one by one. Tang Wan's actions had no place to hide in the face of the hard evidence.

The representative of the partner also attended the dinner. Seeing this, he stood up, walked to Su Li, and said to her: "Ms. Su, your wisdom and courage are admirable. I believe in you and the Gu Group. We will continue to support your project."

Tang Wan watched all this with her own eyes, feeling like a clown being played around by Su Li. She was filled with shame and anger, wishing she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

After the dinner, Gu Jinyan walked up to Su Li, his eyes full of admiration and love, and whispered, "Li'er, you are so great!"

Su Li smiled slightly, but she didn't feel much joy of victory in her heart, because she knew that this was just the beginning. Next, she would have to face more challenges from within the Gu family...

In the distance, several relatives of the Gu family looked at Su Li's back and whispered, "I didn't expect that Su Li is quite capable..."

After the incident at the charity dinner, Su Li's situation in the Gu family changed quietly.

Those Gu family relatives who used to look down on her now look at her with a little more respect and appreciation. At a family gathering, the third aunt of the Gu family spoke first, with a little emotion in her tone: "We were all wrong before. We thought that Su Li was just beautiful, but we didn't expect her to be so smart and capable."

"That's right," the second uncle of the Gu family also echoed, "If it weren't for Su Li's efforts to save the situation, our Gu family would have lost all face. In the end, we should thank him."

Listening to the relatives' discussion, the usually taciturn old man of the Gu family nodded slightly, and a glimmer of approval flashed in his turbid eyes. He spoke slowly, his voice low but full of majesty: "Su Li, you did a good job and did not bring shame to the Gu family."

This was the first time that the old man affirmed Su Li in front of everyone. This short sentence was more important than any compliment. Su Li was moved, and she knew that she was finally beginning to integrate into this family.

Gu Jinyan stood silently beside Su Li, watching her handle the situation with ease, with a faint smile on his face. He knew that Su Li was like a pearl covered in dust, and only after being tempered could she emit a more dazzling light.

After the dinner, Gu Jinyan embraced Su Li in his arms and whispered in her ear: "Li'er, you really impressed me. I am proud of you."

Su Li leaned in Gu Jinyan's arms, feeling his warmth and love, her heart filled with happiness and satisfaction.

In the following days, with the full support of Gu Jinyan, Su Li further improved the project plan and personally led the team to overcome technical difficulties. The project progressed by leaps and bounds, and everything was moving in the planned direction.

Just as the project was about to enter a critical stage, Gu Jinyan suddenly received an anonymous email with only one sentence in it: "Be careful of the people around you, don't let victory go to your head."
