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

The next day, the stock price of Gu Group suddenly fell sharply, and various rumors unfavorable to Gu Jinyan began to circulate within the company.

"I heard that this incident was planned by Mr. Gu, with the purpose of suppressing dissidents and consolidating his own position."

"I've also heard that Mr. Gu is too young and impetuous, and does things without considering the consequences. Sooner or later, he will destroy the Gu Group."

"We should make plans early to avoid being implicated."

……

Rumors spread rapidly within the company like a virus, and people were in panic. The Gu Group, which was already shaky, seemed to be standing on the edge of a cliff and could fall into the abyss at any time.

Gu Jinyan remained calm in the face of danger and quickly took a series of measures to stabilize the situation, but the effect was minimal.

He knew that there must be someone behind the scenes controlling everything, and this person was most likely the mastermind hiding in the dark.

Su Li also received an anonymous text message, which contained only one sentence: "Want to know the truth? Come see me."

The sender is from an unknown number.

Su Li held the phone in her hand, her mind full of thoughts. She vaguely felt that this might be a trap, but perhaps, this was an opportunity to solve the mystery.

After Gu Jinyan learned about it, he firmly opposed Su Li's appointment, "This is too dangerous. We can't be sure of the other party's identity and purpose."

"I know," Su Li said calmly, "but if we do nothing, we will just be passive and take the blame. I want to know what they want to do and who is behind all this."

Looking at Su Li's determined eyes, Gu Jinyan finally compromised.

He arranged the most elite bodyguards to secretly protect Su Li, and mobilized all resources to investigate the identity of the sender.

Both of them knew that this game had just begun. The opponent was in the dark while they were in the light. If they were not careful, they would lose everything.

They must be extremely alert and advance step by step in order to win this war without gunpowder.

Just as they were trying to stabilize the situation, Gu Jinyan received a call. The anxious voice of the project manager came from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Gu, something bad has happened..."

A cross-river bridge project being built by the Gu family suddenly encountered serious quality problems, and several load-bearing steel bars showed signs of breakage.

When the news came, it was like a bolt from the blue, and Gu Jinyan's face turned pale in an instant.

This bridge is the key project of the Gu Group this year. Not only does it require huge investment, it is also a major project related to people's livelihood. Once a problem occurs, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Block the news immediately and investigate the matter thoroughly!" Gu Jinyan made a prompt decision, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

The engineering manager's voice trembled: "Boss Gu, we have sent people to investigate on site. The preliminary judgment is that there is a problem with the quality of the steel bars..."

"Quality issue?" Gu Jinyan stood up suddenly, furious. "How could such an important project have such a low-level mistake?!"

Su Li also realized the seriousness of the matter. She walked to Gu Jinyan, gently held his hand, and whispered to comfort him: "Don't worry, wait until the results of the investigation come out."

Soon, the results of the investigation came out. Just as Gu Jinyan expected, this was not a simple quality issue, but someone had deliberately tampered with the materials and replaced the original materials with a batch of inferior steel bars in an attempt to cause a serious accident of bridge collapse.

"Who is it? Who on earth wants to kill the Gu family?!" Gu Jinyan was furious and gnashed his teeth.

Su Li's expression also became solemn. There must be a huge conspiracy hidden behind this incident. Their enemy seemed to be more cunning and vicious than they had imagined.

"Jin Yan, we must find the mastermind as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous." Su Li said in a deep voice.

Gu Jinyan took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. "I know. I've asked Assistant Lin to check it out. I believe there will be results soon."

Just then, Gu Jinyan's cell phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller ID and his expression changed slightly.

"It's Grandpa..." Gu Jinyan answered the phone, but before he could say anything, he heard the angry roar of Grandpa Gu from the other end of the phone: "Rebellious son! What on earth did you do?"

"Grandpa, don't be angry first, listen to my explanation..." Gu Jinyan tried to explain, but was rudely interrupted by Grandpa Gu.

"Explain? What else is there to explain?! Now the whole city of A has spread the news that our Gu company cut corners and disregarded the safety of the people! Where can I put my old face?!"

Old Master Gu was obviously furious. Gu Jinyan's fingers holding the phone turned slightly white, but he understood that now was not the time to argue with his grandfather. The most urgent task was to solve the problem.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter and give you and the public an explanation."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Jinyan's face became terribly gloomy, and the atmosphere in the room seemed to be frozen.

Seeing this, Su Li gently held his hand, silently giving him strength.

"It seems that our opponent this time not only wants to bring down the Gu Group, but also wants to completely destroy you." Su Li's voice was calm and firm, "Jin Yan, we can't just sit there and wait for death."

Gu Jinyan took a deep breath, his eyes gradually became fierce, "I know, this time, I will make them pay the price!"

Soon, the news that Gu's Group convened an emergency board meeting spread throughout City A. At the meeting, Gu Jinyan publicly announced a thorough investigation of the quality issues of the bridge project and promised to give the public a satisfactory explanation.

As soon as Gu Jinyan finished speaking, Second Uncle Gu and Third Uncle Gu took the lead in causing trouble.

"Jin Yan, this matter is of great importance. You must not act on impulse!" Uncle Gu had a look of deep sorrow on his face. "We cannot let the century-old foundation of the Gu family be destroyed in your hands!"

"That's right, Jin Yan, I think we should leave this matter to the police. As a young man, you shouldn't get involved in this mess." Uncle Gu also echoed.

What they meant was that they wanted to take this opportunity to force Gu Jinyan to give up control of the company.

Su Li sat next to Gu Jinyan and saw all of this. She knew that a new storm was about to come.

"Don't worry, uncles and aunts, I know the truth about this matter." Gu Jinyan's eyes swept over everyone, and his tone left no room for doubt, "I will definitely find out the truth and give an explanation to the company and all shareholders!"
