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

Chapter 101: Flowers in the Mist: The Truth is Complicated and Confusing

The public relations manager quickly brought back the results of the investigation, and it was discovered that the heroine of the scandal did attend the charity dinner hosted by the Zhao Group last week, and had a very pleasant conversation with the general manager of the Zhao Group.

"It seems that my guess is correct. This scandal is a trap set by the Zhao Group." Su Li gently placed the pen in his hand on the table, his tone calm but with a hint of coldness.

"But... Madam, we don't have direct evidence to prove that the Zhao Group is behind this. It will be hard to convince people with just a photo and a dinner." The public relations manager was embarrassed. He understood that Su Li's guess was very likely true, but it was too risky to publicly accuse the Zhao Group based on these guesses alone.

Su Li naturally understood this truth. She stood up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looked at the bustling city outside the window, and fell into deep thought.

"I know that these alone are not enough to serve as evidence." Su Li's voice was low and calm, "But this matter is definitely not that simple. Since the Zhao Group dared to do it, they must have left some clues."

"So what does the young lady mean..." the public relations manager asked cautiously.

"Keep investigating!" Su Li turned around, her eyes determined, "I want to find evidence that they are manipulating public opinion. I want them to pay the price for their actions!"

The PR manager took the order and left. Su Li stood alone in the empty office, feeling an invisible pressure. She knew that the battle had just begun, and she would not only face the media's bombardment, but also the enemies hidden in the dark.

At this moment, the cell phone rang suddenly. Su Li took a look at the caller ID and saw that it was Gu Jinyan calling.

"Hello, Jin Yan." She answered the phone, trying to make her tone sound calm.

"How's things going? Is there any progress?" There was a hint of fatigue and worry in Gu Jinyan's voice.

"I have found some clues and I believe I will be able to find out the truth soon." Su Li tried to answer in a relaxed tone, not wanting him to worry about her.

"That's good. If you need any help, just let me know."

"I understand. You should also take a rest and don't work too hard."

"Well, I will."

After hanging up the phone, Su Li took a deep breath and her eyes became more determined. She knew that she must not fall down. For Gu Jinyan and for their love, she would fight to the end!

At this moment, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and the public relations manager walked in panicked, saying in a hurried tone: "Madam, it's bad, the reporters... the reporters are here..."

As soon as the PR manager finished speaking, a group of reporters rushed into Su Li's office. Flashlights kept flashing and microphones were almost poking Su Li's face.

"Ms. Su, do you have anything to say about the online gossip?"

"Boss Gu has not shown up yet. Does he agree to this?"

"The stock price of Gu's Group has begun to fall. How will you deal with it?"

The reporters' questions came like a barrage of bullets, and Su Li was surrounded in the middle, almost unable to breathe. She tried to stay calm, but the reporters' aggressive attitude made her feel extremely angry.

"Please be quiet!" Su Li raised her voice. "I believe that the innocent will be cleared, and the truth of this matter will soon come to light. Please don't believe the rumors."

The reporters ignored her explanation and asked more questions with more excitement. At this moment, Su Li's phone rang again. It was Gu Jinyan's assistant who called to inform her that several important partners of Gu Group had called to inquire about the situation and expressed their concerns about the scandal.

Su Li's heart sank suddenly. She realized that this matter was not just a personal emotional issue for Gu Jinyan, but also related to the reputation and future of the entire Gu Group. She had to find a solution as soon as possible.

She hurried to Gu Jinyan's office, only to find him sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, his back looking lonely, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, as if he had drunk quite a bit.

"Jin Yan, how are you?" Su Li walked to him and asked softly.

Gu Jinyan turned around and looked at her with complicated eyes, but did not speak.

"How do you plan to deal with this matter?" Su Li asked, with a hint of anxiety and expectation in her tone.

"How else can we deal with it?" Gu Jinyan smiled bitterly, "The innocent are innocent, and I am not afraid of my own shadow."

Su Li's heart sank. She heard a hint of evasion and helplessness in Gu Jinyan's tone.

"But this matter has already affected the company, you can't just sit back and watch!" Su Li said excitedly.

"Then what do you want me to do?" Gu Jinyan stood up suddenly, with a hint of anger in his tone, "Do you want me to be like a clown and explain my relationship with that woman to the whole world?"

"That's not what I meant..." Su Li wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Gu Jinyan.

"That's enough, Su Li. I'm very tired now and don't want to talk about this anymore."

Su Li looked at Gu Jinyan's exhausted expression, and her heart was filled with disappointment and powerlessness. At this moment, her phone received a message from an unfamiliar number...

Su Li looked at Gu Jinyan's exhausted expression, and her heart was filled with disappointment and powerlessness. She knew the pressure Gu Jinyan was under at the moment, but she knew even more clearly that this matter could not be dragged on like this. Silence spread between the two of them, and Su Li was almost breathless due to the oppression. At this moment, her mobile phone vibrated, and a message from an unfamiliar number broke the deadlock: "Want to prove his innocence? I know the truth. See you at 3 pm, xx Coffee Shop."

Su Li was shocked. Could there be something else going on? After hesitating for a moment, she decided to go to the appointment. At three o'clock in the afternoon, Su Li arrived at the coffee shop on time. A man wearing a baseball cap, sunglasses and a mask, wrapped up tightly, was already waiting there.

"You sent me the message?" Su Li asked tentatively.

"Ms. Su, I know you are a smart person, so I choose to believe you." The man lowered his voice and took out a USB flash drive from his bag. "It contains all the evidence you want. It is enough to prove that this scandal was maliciously planned by someone."

Su Li took the USB drive and her heartbeat accelerated. She couldn't wait to know the contents of the USB drive, but her mind told her not to act rashly yet.

"Why are you helping me?" Su Li asked cautiously, "What is your purpose?"

"My purpose is simple, which is to expose the truth." The man paused, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "Of course, this can also be regarded as a lesson for some people."

Before Su Li could ask again, the man stood up and left the cafe, disappearing into the crowd. Su Li held the USB drive in his hand, feeling it was heavy, as if he was holding a key to change everything.

She took a deep breath and immediately called the public relations manager...
