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

Su Li turned around and saw a familiar figure standing behind her - it was Gu Jinyan's assistant, Lin Sen. Lin Sen shook his head slightly at her, signaling her not to act rashly. Su Li understood, suppressed her inner shock and anger, and followed Lin Sen out of the office door.

"Ms. Su, there are some things you'd better not know." Lin Sen said in a low voice with a hint of warning in his tone.

Su Li took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. "Assistant Lin, I know you are loyal to Gu Jinyan, but this matter is of great importance. I can't just sit back and watch."

Lin Sen was silent for a moment, as if he was weighing something. Finally, he sighed and said, "Okay, since you want to know, I'll tell you. But you must promise not to tell anyone, especially Mr. Gu, otherwise I can't protect you."

Su Li nodded solemnly. Lin Sen then told her that Second Uncle Gu and Third Uncle Gu had been secretly trying to win over the company's shareholders in an attempt to remove Gu Jinyan from his position as president at the shareholders' meeting. The reason they were able to gain support from their business rivals was because they promised that once they seized control of the company, they would hand over the company's core technology.

"Where is the evidence? Do you have evidence to prove that they are colluding with business rivals?" Su Li asked anxiously.

"Evidence..." Lin Sen's face flashed with embarrassment, "I have been secretly investigating this matter, but I haven't found any conclusive evidence yet."

Su Li did not give up. She returned to the old house of the Gu family and tried to find clues in the study of Mr. Gu. Her efforts paid off. She finally found a document bag in a hidden corner. She opened the document bag and found a share transfer agreement. Party A of the agreement was Uncle Gu, and Party B was the representative of the business rival company. The content of the agreement was to transfer the shares of Gu Group to the other party.

Su Li was delighted. With this agreement, she could prove the collusion between Uncle Gu and his business rivals and expose their conspiracy! She carefully put the agreement away and prepared to go find Gu Jinyan.

Just as she was about to leave the study, she suddenly heard footsteps outside the door. She was startled and quickly hid the file bag in the drawer and then hid behind the curtains.

The door was pushed open and a familiar figure walked in.

"Su Li, are you there?" It was Gu Jinyan's voice.

Su Li's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she covered her mouth tightly, afraid of making any sound.

Gu Jinyan looked around the study room and didn't see Su Li. He walked to the desk and picked up a document to read.

Su Li's heart was in her throat. She knew that the file bag was hidden in the drawer next to Gu Jinyan. As long as he opened the drawer, he would discover her secret!

Time passed by, and Su Li felt that her breathing was about to stop. At this moment, Gu Jinyan's cell phone suddenly rang. He answered the call and frowned slightly.

"What did you say? The evidence is gone?"

Su Li's heartbeat almost jumped out of her throat. She held her breath and dared not to breathe. Gu Jinyan's tone sounded full of disbelief and anger. Could it be... Could it be that he had found evidence of collusion between Second Uncle Gu and his business rivals?

Gu Jinyan's call lasted for several minutes. He said a few words in a cold tone, "I know," and hung up the phone. His deep eyes were filled with unpredictable emotions. He threw the documents in his hand back on the table in annoyance, and his eyes accidentally swept across the drawer containing the equity transfer agreement, but he did not open it in the end.

"Su Li?" Gu Jinyan's voice sounded again, this time with a hint of doubt and exploration.

Su Li's heart suddenly shrank. Was he doubting her existence? She bit her lower lip and tried to control her body from shaking. At this moment, Gu Jinyan's footsteps suddenly approached the curtains. Su Li closed her eyes in despair. She knew she had nowhere to escape.

The expected questioning did not come. Gu Jinyan just paused in front of the curtain for a few seconds, then turned and left the study. Su Li listened to his footsteps gradually fading away, and then dared to walk out from behind the curtain carefully.

She leaned weakly against the wall, her back soaked with cold sweat.

Gu Jinyan didn't notice her just now because he didn't expect her to appear here, or... did he already know something?

Su Li didn't dare to think further. She realized that she had to be more careful in order to protect herself and Gu Jinyan in this power struggle.

She put the equity transfer agreement back into the file bag, hid it in a more hidden place, and then left the study quietly.

The next day, a tense atmosphere as if a storm was about to break out filled the Gu family's old house.

Second Uncle Gu and Third Uncle Gu arrived at the old house early, with an undisguised smugness and viciousness on their faces.

"Su Li, you'd better pray that you haven't done anything to let down the Gu family." Second Uncle Gu looked at Su Li meaningfully, his tone full of warning.

Su Li's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that... they already knew that she was investigating them?

Su Li's heart felt like it had fallen into an icy cave, and the chill spread.

Uncle Gu's words undoubtedly confirmed her guess that they already knew what she was investigating.

The family meeting was held in a depressing atmosphere, with Second Uncle Gu and Third Uncle Gu taking the lead and being aggressive.

"The head of the family's wife seems to be particularly concerned about the company's internal affairs recently."

Uncle Gu said with a fake smile, "They even used a lot of manpower and resources to investigate some old things. I wonder what the mistress of the family's intention is?"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of echoes in the conference room, all from Uncle Gu's second and third uncles.

Su Li's face was calm, and his eyes swept across everyone, finally landing on Mr. Gu who was sitting silently in the main seat.

"Uncle, what you said is serious," Su Li said calmly, "As a member of the Gu family, is it wrong for me to care about the development of the family business?"

"Care about the development of the family business?" Uncle Gu sneered, "I think the wife of the head of the family is not interested in the bar. Which of the things you investigated is not a family secret? You are trying to sow discord and destroy the unity of the family!"

"What I investigated was only the flow of funds for some projects back then, and the actual income of some cooperative projects," Su Li calmly took out the documents that had been prepared long ago, "These are all company secrets. I suspect someone has tampered with them and damaged the interests of the family."

She distributed the documents, presenting clear data and charts to everyone in an irrefutable manner.

Suddenly there was a burst of discussion, and some people who originally stood on the side of Uncle Gu Er and Uncle Gu San couldn't help but begin to waver.
