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

"I didn't..." Tang Wan wanted to argue, but was interrupted by Gu Jinyan's cold voice.

"That's enough!" Gu Jinyan walked to Su Li, protecting her behind him, staring at Tang Wan fiercely, "I didn't expect you to be such a person!"

Tang Wan looked at Gu Jinyan's cold eyes and knew that she was completely finished. She looked around desperately, but found that everyone was looking at her with scrutiny and disgust, and no one was willing to speak for her.

She knew she had no way to escape.

Being deserted by her friends and family, Tang Wan tried to escape from the Gu family, but before she could even step out of the banquet hall, she was stopped by Gu Jinyan and Su Li.

"Where do you want to go?" Su Li looked at her coldly, his eyes full of ridicule and disdain.

Tang Wan looked at the perfect couple in front of her and suddenly laughed bitterly: "Su Li, you win. But do you really think that he will truly love you?"

These words, like a thorn, pierced deeply into Su Li's heart.

Gu Jinyan held Su Li's hand tightly, his eyes firm and gentle: "Li Li, don't listen to her nonsense."

Tang Wan's next words made Su Li's heart sink again.

"Have you forgotten that back then..."

"I promised you that I would always protect you and take care of you." Tang Wan smiled sadly, her eyes full of bitterness, "But you abandoned me and married her for the benefit of the Gu family!"

Tang Wan's words were like a thunderclap, exploding in Su Li's ears. She looked at Gu Jinyan in disbelief, but saw that his face was pale and his eyes flickered, and he actually agreed with Tang Wan's words.

"No, it's not like that..." Su Li's voice trembled, she couldn't accept this fact.

"Lili, back then..." Gu Jinyan wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Su Li.

"That's enough!" Su Li shook off his hand, her eyes red, "Gu Jinyan, you're awesome!"

After saying that, Su Li no longer paid attention to Gu Jinyan, turned around and ran out of the banquet hall.

Gu Jinyan wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Gu's relatives.

"Jin Yan, you must give us an explanation for this matter!"

"Yeah, are you doing this to Su Li?"

"You have brought shame to the Gu family!"

Gu Jinyan could not hear a word of the accusations from Gu's relatives. His mind was filled with the desperate look in Su Li's eyes when she left, and his heart was broken.

He knew that he had hurt Su Li and let her down.

The farce in the banquet hall soon spread throughout the upper class society. The emotional entanglement between Su Li and Gu Jinyan became the topic of conversation among the people.

No one knew that after leaving the banquet hall, Su Li did not become discouraged, but chose to face the challenge head-on.

She put all her energy into her work, and with her ability and hard work, she successfully turned the project around.

In the negotiations with the partners' representatives, Su Li showed extraordinary business acumen and negotiation skills. She keenly grasped the other party's psychology, took every step carefully, and finally won the greatest benefits for the company.

The project was ultimately a huge success, and Su Li's name spread throughout the industry along with the project's success.

The people of the Gu family finally realized that Su Li was no longer the adopted daughter of the Su family who was at the mercy of others, but a woman with an independent personality and strong abilities.

The old lady of the Gu family personally put a jade bracelet on Su Li's wrist and said kindly: "Li Li, you are a good child and a lucky star for our Gu family."

Su Li looked at the jade bracelet on her wrist, which was the symbol of the mistress of the Gu family.

She smiled faintly, but a complex emotion flashed in her eyes: "Grandma, I will try my best to do my duty."

At the project celebration party, Su Li wore a well-cut black dress with her long hair tied up, revealing her slender white neck. She exuded a confident and dazzling light.

The old lady of the Gu family held her hand, smiling from ear to ear, and praised her to everyone she met: "This is my granddaughter-in-law. She brings honor to our Gu family!"

The stock of Gu's Group soared after the success of the project, and Su Li's name frequently appeared on the covers of financial magazines. She was no longer the sympathetic and talked-about substitute bride, but stood on par with Gu Jinyan with her own abilities.

In a corner of the banquet hall, Gu Jinyan looked at Su Li, who was surrounded by everyone, with a gentle and affectionate gaze.

He knew that Su Li no longer needed his protection. She had grown into a tall tree and had her own sky.

The crowd dispersed, and Su Li walked to the terrace to get some fresh air. Gu Jinyan followed her and handed her a glass of champagne.

"Congratulations, Su Li." Gu Jinyan raised his glass with a sincere look in his eyes, "You did it. You are better than I thought."

Su Li took a sip of champagne and turned to look at him. Under the moonlight, his eyes were as deep as the night sky, reflecting her appearance at the moment.

"Thank you." Su Li smiled faintly, her tone calm, "But everything I did was not to prove anything to anyone."

"I know." Gu Jinyan took a step closer, reached out and gently stroked her cheek, his tone was a little bitter, "I know I hurt you before, but I hope you can understand that in my heart, there is only you."

Su Li's heart trembled suddenly. His eyes were so serious and affectionate that she couldn't ignore them.

"Su Li, come back to me and let's start over." Gu Jinyan held her hand, his tone firm but gentle.

Su Li looked at the man in front of her. The past hurts and misunderstandings seemed to no longer matter at this moment. What mattered was that in his eyes and in his heart, there was only her.

"Okay." Su Li nodded gently, a happy smile on the corner of her lips.

Gu Jinyan was overjoyed and hugged her tightly in his arms.

In the distance, a pair of resentful eyes were watching all this coldly through the window...

The resentful look came from Tang Wan who was hiding in the dark outside the banquet hall.

She sneaked into the party today, intending to wait for an opportunity to ruin Su Li's celebration party, but unexpectedly she ran into Gu Jinyan's affectionate confession.

Why? Why did she scheme so hard for so many years but still not get Gu Jinyan's love? Resentment and jealousy gnawed at her heart like a poisonous snake.

What Tang Wan didn't know was that Gu Jinyan had long been aware of her existence and everything she had done over the years.

He was just waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity for her to completely disappear from his and Su Li's lives. After the banquet, Tang Wan followed Gu Jinyan's car stealthily and came to the Gu family's old house. She didn't know what was waiting for her, but a glimmer of hope ignited in her heart. Maybe, she still had a chance.

What greeted her was not Gu Jinyan, but the cold handcuffs of the police.

It turned out that Gu Jinyan had already obtained all the evidence of her crimes over the years, including how she caused the car accident and tried to hurt Su Li.

Tang Wan finally realized that everything she had worked so hard for was just a ridiculous farce in Gu Jinyan's eyes. She cursed hysterically, but she could not change her fate of being thrown into prison.

The news of Tang Wan's arrest quickly spread throughout the upper class society, and everyone suddenly realized that they had always been blinded by this seemingly gentle and kind woman.

The Gu family also took the opportunity to clean up their house, eliminating those relatives who colluded with Tang Wan one by one, and giving Su Li justice.

Without Tang Wan interfering, the relationship between Su Li and Gu Jinyan becomes even sweeter.

On a sunny morning, the Gu family's old house was decorated with lights and crowded with guests; a grand wedding was being held here.

This time, it was Gu Jinyan who formally proposed to Su Li. He hoped that this wedding would be something Su Li would never forget.

Su Li, wearing a pure white wedding gown, walked slowly towards the flower-covered hall holding Gu Jinyan's arm, under the loving gaze of Old Lady Gu.

Gu family relatives, business partners, and celebrities all came to congratulate and witness the happy moment of the newlyweds.

Gu Jinyan looked at Su Li affectionately, his eyes full of love and promise. Su Li also looked back at him with a happy smile on her face.

"Lili, are you willing to marry Mr. Gu Jinyan? Whether rich or poor, sick or healthy, are you willing to love him, take care of him, respect him, and accompany him for the rest of your life, never to be separated?" The witness's solemn voice echoed in the auditorium.

Su Li looked at Gu Jinyan and nodded firmly...

"I do." Su Li's voice was clear and firm, like a clear spring in a mountain stream, echoing in everyone's ears.

Gu Jinyan's deep eyes were filled with smiles. He gently lifted Su Li's white veil and bent down to kiss her lips.

At this moment, time seemed to stand still, and only happiness flowed between the two of them.

Warm applause broke out, and the guests gave their blessings, witnessing the couple walking hand in hand into the palace of happiness. Mrs. Gu looked at the scene in front of her, tears welled up in her eyes, she knew that Su Li was a gift from God to the Gu family, she would protect the Gu family and also get her own happiness.

Married life is sweet and fulfilling.

With her wisdom and ability, Su Li quickly gained a foothold in the company and gradually participated in the company's important decision-making. She was no longer the weak substitute wife, but a confident, independent and charming woman.

Gu Jinyan also supported her unreservedly, handed over part of the company's business to her and let her display her talents.

During an important cooperation negotiation, the representative of the cooperation party expressed doubts about Su Li's ability and his words were full of contempt.

Su Li did not get angry. She calmly analyzed the market situation and put forward unique insights, which eventually won the recognition and respect of the partners' representatives.

"Mrs. Gu, I admire your ability and courage. I believe that the cooperation between us will be very pleasant." The representative of the partner extended his hand and praised sincerely.

Su Li smiled slightly and shook hands with him, her eyes firm and confident. "I believe that Gu Group will be your most trustworthy partner."

In the corner of the banquet hall, Gu Jinyan looked at the radiant Su Li with a doting smile on his face. His Li Li finally emerged from her cocoon and blossomed into a butterfly, radiating her own light.

A familiar figure appeared at the door of the banquet hall. His eyes were fixed on Su Li, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes...

Su Li greeted the representatives of the partners gracefully and confidently in her every move.

The crystal chandeliers in the banquet hall reflected bright light, shining on her delicate face, making her even more charming.

Gu Jinyan's gaze followed her all the time, and the love in his eyes was so strong that it could not be dissolved.

After the banquet, Gu Jinyan held Su Li's hand and strolled in the garden of the Gu family's old house.

"Lili, you did a great job today." Gu Jinyan said softly, his tone full of pride and doting.

Su Li smiled slightly and leaned gently on his shoulder, "I just did what I should do."

Gu Jinyan lowered his head and kissed her forehead tenderly, "You are always so humble."

The two hugged each other, enjoying the warmth and sweetness of the moment. During her time at the Gu family, Su Li had gone from being cautious at first to being able to handle things with ease now. She had won the respect and love of everyone with her wisdom and courage.

A figure quietly appeared at the entrance of the garden. He stood there quietly, looking at the scene in front of him with complicated eyes, as if he wanted to engrave all of this in his mind.

"Ayan..." He murmured to himself, his voice low and hoarse.

In the banquet hall, Mrs. Gu was surrounded by a group of relatives, asking about the details of the company's cooperation.

Su Li's outstanding performance made everyone in the Gu family praise her.

"I told you that Miss Su is a lucky girl. Look, she has managed the company's affairs in perfect order not long after she got married."

"That's right. I used to worry that she was too young to handle the situation. Now it seems that I was worrying too much."

"Jin Yan really married a good wife..."

Listening to the compliments from relatives, Mrs. Gu showed a gratified smile on her face. Su Li's arrival not only brought new vitality to the Gu family, but also made Gu Jinyan more mature and stable.

"Grandma, if you're tired, go back and rest. Jin Yan and I are here." Su Li walked to Grandma Gu with a cup of tea and said softly.

Old Mrs. Gu patted her hands lovingly and said, "Good child, thank you for your hard work."

Su Li smiled and shook her head, "It should be."

After seeing off Mrs. Gu, Su Li and Gu Jinyan returned to the banquet hall. When they walked into the banquet hall, they found that the atmosphere was a little wrong. Everyone's eyes were focused in one direction, with surprise and confusion on their faces.

Su Li followed the gaze of the crowd and saw a tall and straight figure standing at the door of the banquet hall. He had handsome features and an elegant temperament, but his face was a little pale and there was a hint of fatigue in his eyes that was hard to conceal.

Gu Jinyan's footsteps suddenly stopped, and a trace of shock and disbelief flashed in his eyes.

"Brother..." He spoke slowly, his voice filled with mixed emotions.
