The president's wife wants to run away

Chapter 119 First Failure

"Let her go!" Zhong Yuxuan's roar exploded in my ears, like a thunderclap, instantly dispelling the haze around me. I saw his tall figure standing at the door against the light, with undisguised anger between his brows, like an enraged lion, exuding a chilling aura.

I was escorted by his bodyguards out of that smoky place, and only when I got into the car did my tense nerves relax a little. My palms were full of cold sweat, and my heart was pounding like a frightened deer.

"Are you okay?" Zhong Yuxuan's worried voice sounded in my ears. He reached out and gently held my hand, his eyes full of self-blame and concern.

"I'm fine, luckily you arrived in time." I shook my head and tried to force a smile, not wanting to make him worry.

"This time it's all thanks to you, Luo Xue." His eyes were full of gratitude. "We successfully installed a bug in his phone. I believe there will be new discoveries soon."

I nodded, but I couldn't feel happy. Thinking back to the scene just now, I still felt scared. Liu Haoyu's eyes were cold and vicious, like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, which made people shudder.

However, before we could breathe a sigh of relief, Zhong Shuhao told us in a serious tone that an anti-tracking system had been installed in Liu Haoyu's mobile phone and our eavesdropping device had been discovered.

"Damn it! This Liu Haoyu is so cunning!" I gnashed my teeth in anger, but there was nothing I could do. The bug that I had spent so much effort to install was discovered so easily, and all our efforts went to waste.

"Don't worry, Luo Xue, we still have a chance." Zhong Yuxuan comforted me, "I have sent someone to investigate his background, and I believe there will be results soon."

His words made me feel a little more at ease. I held his hand tightly and placed all my hopes on him.

Sure enough, not long after, Zhong Yuxuan received a shocking news: Liu Haoyu actually had close ties with the leader of a mysterious organization, and this organization had been committed to developing a new virus in an attempt to use the virus to control the world!

This news was like a heavy bomb, exploding in the hearts of each of us. I never expected that Liu Haoyu's ambition was so big, and what he was plotting was actually the whole world!

"We can't wait any longer, we must stop him!" I clenched my fists and said with a firm look in my eyes.

Zhong Yuxuan nodded, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes: "Let's go directly to him and expose his true face!"

However, when we confidently went to confront Liu Haoyu, we found that things were not as simple as we thought. Liu Haoyu was well prepared. He took out the forged evidence and put all the charges on us. For a time, we became the insidious and cunning framers, and he became the innocent victim.

The media coverage was overwhelming, pushing us to the forefront of public opinion. Looking at those reports full of doubts and abuses, I felt powerless and hopeless.

How could this happen? We were the ones who wanted to expose his crimes, so why did we end up being framed?

I felt my head buzzing. Those glaring news headlines were like countless flies flying in front of my eyes. "The conspiracy was exposed", "Wolfish ambitions", "Hypocritical philanthropist"... Every word was like a sharp knife, stabbing my heart fiercely.

I couldn't accept that we had worked so hard for so long and paid so much, but in the end we became the target of public criticism, misunderstood and reviled by everyone. I leaned weakly on the sofa, feeling as if my body had been hollowed out, leaving only endless fatigue and despair.

Zhong Yuxuan's face was also very ugly. He held the phone tightly, and his knuckles were blue and white. I know that he is under more pressure than me at this moment. Not only does he have to face the doubts and attacks from the outside world, but he also has to find a way to turn the situation around, protect me, and protect everyone.

"Yuxuan, what should we do now?" I raised my head and looked into his eyes, with a slight tremor in my voice.

He took a deep breath, stretched out his hand and held me in his arms, his tone low and firm: "Don't worry, I won't let him succeed. The truth will come out sooner or later, and we will find evidence to prove our innocence."

His embrace was warm and powerful, giving me a sense of comfort in my despair. However, I knew that things were far from as simple as he said. Liu Haoyu was meticulous and ruthless, so how easy would it be for us to bring him down?

To make matters worse, Interpol also received news that they could not take action against Liu Haoyu for the time being due to insufficient evidence. This news was undoubtedly worse for us, as it meant that we had lost a strong backing and could only rely on our own strength to fight Liu Haoyu.

"Damn it! What on earth did Liu Haoyu use to be able to cover up the world to this extent!" Qin Xue angrily threw the documents in her hand on the table, her anger almost setting the whole room on fire.

Zhong Shuhao shook his head solemnly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "He has made all the necessary preparations. We are like prey trapped in a spider's web. Every step we take is full of dangers."

I looked at their frustrated expressions, and my heart felt like a huge rock was pressing down on me, making me breathless. Are we really helpless? Are we going to watch Liu Haoyu go unpunished and continue his evil plan?

No, I won't give up! I must find evidence, expose his true colors, and make him pay for what he did! I secretly made up my mind, and my eyes became firm.

However, in the next few days, things started to go from bad to worse. Zhong Shuhao and Qin Xue tried to collect evidence through other means, but Liu Haoyu seemed to have seen through everything and always managed to sabotage their efforts. We were like being trapped in a huge maze, unable to find the exit or hope...

"I just don't know where to start!" Zhong Shuhao scratched his hair in annoyance and threw a document fiercely on the table. The documents were scattered, densely packed with records of Liu Haoyu's various secret transactions over the years, but it was difficult to find a breakthrough because of the long time or sophisticated means.

Qin Xue also changed her usual calmness, her delicate face was full of fatigue and anger: "This Liu Haoyu is simply an old fox. He has calculated every step we take. We can't find any substantial evidence at all."

I looked at their frustrated expressions, and my heart felt like it was being pressed down by a huge rock, and I couldn't breathe. These days, we are like being trapped in a huge maze, unable to find the exit and seeing no hope.

"Is it true... that we really can't do anything to him?" I murmured to myself, my tone filled with powerlessness.

"Of course not." Zhong Yuxuan's voice sounded above my head, with his usual firmness and strength, "Even if he is an old fox, we have to find him out!"

Although he said that, I could see that there was a trace of fatigue between his brows. These days, he was under more pressure than anyone else. Not only did he have to face the doubts and attacks from the outside world, but he also had to find a way to turn the situation around, protect me, and protect everyone.

"But what else can we do now?" I raised my head and looked at him, my eyes full of confusion and helplessness.

He was silent for a moment, seemingly thinking about this question.

At this time, Lin Xiaofeng came in, and his face was not very good. As our ally in the business field, he had been trying to snipe Liu Haoyu's company, but with little effect.

"I tried to start with his capital chain, but the power behind him is too huge, and the funds I can mobilize are simply not enough." Lin Xiaofeng sighed, his tone full of helplessness, "Also, my actions seem to have aroused his vigilance, and he has become more cautious now."

"This old fox..." Zhong Shuhao gritted his teeth and said, "He must have noticed something, so he stepped up his precautions."

The atmosphere in the room became more solemn. We all knew that this meant that our next move would be more difficult. Liu Haoyu had made all the necessary preparations, but we were like a group of headless flies, running around in the dark but unable to find a way out.

My heart gradually sank, and a deep sense of powerlessness and despair came over me. Are we really going to watch Liu Haoyu go unpunished and continue his evil plan?

The meeting ended unpleasantly that day, with exhaustion and anxiety written all over everyone's face. I leaned weakly on the sofa, feeling as if my body had been hollowed out, leaving only an empty shell.

"Luo Xue, don't worry, we will definitely find a way." Zhong Yuxuan walked to my side, gently put his arm around my shoulders, trying to give me some comfort.

I looked up and saw his tired eyes, and I felt even more upset. In this struggle, he had endured much more pressure than I had, but he remained calm and composed, which gave me strength and hope.

"Yuxuan, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If I weren't the daughter of the Li family, you wouldn't..."

"Fool, what nonsense are you talking about!" Zhong Yuxuan interrupted me with a hint of blame in his tone, "I said, no matter who you are, I will protect you and stand by your side."

I bit my lip and buried my head in his arms, tears streaming down my face. I knew he was telling the truth, but I couldn't let it go.

"In fact, we all underestimated Liu Haoyu." After a long silence, Zhong Yuxuan suddenly spoke with a hint of self-blame in his tone, "He has been able to dominate the business world for so many years, not just by luck and tricks. Our strategy from the beginning was wrong."

I raised my head and looked at him puzzledly: "What do you mean..."

"We were too eager to succeed, wanting to hit him right away, but we overlooked his weakness." A gleam of light flashed in Zhong Yuxuan's eyes. "He was able to hide so deeply, there must be something he is afraid of. What we need to do now is to find that thing."

His words gave me a glimmer of hope. Yes, no matter how cunning Liu Haoyu is, he must have weaknesses. As long as we can find his weaknesses, we can bring him to justice!

At this moment, Zhong Shuhao's cell phone suddenly rang. He picked up the call and his expression gradually became solemn.

"What did you say? Say it again!" Zhong Shuhao's voice was full of surprise and disbelief.

I looked at him nervously, not knowing what had happened. Zhong Shuhao hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and looked at me and Zhong Yuxuan.

"Just now... I received news that someone sent us a document anonymously. Inside... there might be something we want."

My heartbeat suddenly accelerated. Could this be the turning point we have been waiting for?
