Su Wanwan stared at the computer screen with a frown. Ever since she discussed the prenuptial agreement with Huo Yanshen that day, she has been looking for a breakthrough. She knew that if she wanted to gain a foothold in the Huo family, Huo Yanshen's support alone was far from enough.

Just as she was immersed in her thoughts, there was a gentle knock on the office door.

"Please come in." Su Wanwan said, still without taking her eyes off the screen.

Assistant Lin walked in, looking a little nervous. "Assistant Su, the Finance Department just sent a report. I think you might want to take a look at it."

Su Wanwan raised her head and took the document handed to her by Assistant Lin. As she read more, her brows furrowed more and more.

"This is..." Su Wanwan looked up at Assistant Lin, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

Assistant Lin nodded and lowered his voice and said, "Yes, I find it strange too. In recent months, a large amount of funds from the company has flowed to an unknown overseas account."

Su Wanwan's brain was working rapidly. The flow of this money was indeed suspicious, but she couldn't easily draw a conclusion.

"Assistant Lin," Su Wanwan said after thinking for a moment, "Don't tell anyone else about this, including Mr. Huo. I need time to investigate further."

Assistant Lin nodded to show his understanding and left the office.

Su Wanwan took a deep breath and began to analyze the report carefully. As the investigation deepened, she found that the transfer of funds was not an isolated incident. In the past six months, similar transfers have occurred many times. Although the amount each time was not large, the accumulated amount was an astonishing figure.

Just as Su Wanwan was about to continue her investigation, the office door was knocked again.

"Come in." Su Wanwan said, and quickly closed the file on the computer.

The door opened and Lu Wei walked in gracefully. There was a faint smile on her face, "Assistant Su, sorry to bother you."

Su Wanwan looked at Lu Wei warily, "Miss Lu, what's the matter?"

Lu Wei sat down on the chair opposite Su Wanwan, "I heard that you are preparing a prenuptial agreement with Brother Yan Shen recently?"

Su Wanwan's heart skipped a beat. Apart from Huo Yanshen and the legal advisor, no one else should know about this.

"That's true." Su Wanwan answered cautiously, "I wonder what Miss Lu thinks about this?"

Lu Wei chuckled. "Opinion? What opinion can I have? I just want to remind you that you must be careful with every step in the Huo family. After all..." She looked at Su Wanwan meaningfully, "Your identity is quite special."

Su Wanwan suppressed her inner discomfort and said calmly: "Thank you Miss Lu for your reminder. I will pay attention to it."

Lu Wei stood up and prepared to leave. Just as she reached the door, she suddenly turned around and said, "By the way, I heard that there are some unusual things in the Finance Department recently. Assistant Su should pay more attention to it."

After saying that, she left, leaving Su Wanwan alone in deep thought.

Lu Wei's words undoubtedly sounded a warning to Su Wanwan. Lu Wei actually knew about the financial anomaly, which meant that there might be information leakage within the company. More importantly, why did Lu Wei come to remind her?

Su Wanwan decided to speed up the investigation. She turned on her computer and began to carefully sort out every suspicious flow of funds. As the investigation deepened, a disturbing fact gradually surfaced: these funds seemed to be related to a project code-named "Phoenix".

Just as Su Wanwan was about to continue her investigation, her cell phone suddenly rang. It was Huo Yanshen.

"Wanwan, can you come to my office?" Huo Yanshen's voice sounded a little tired.

"Okay, I'll be there right away." Su Wanwan replied, and quickly saved her investigation progress.

When Su Wanwan arrived at Huo Yanshen's office, she found that Mr. Huo was also present. The atmosphere was a little solemn.

"Please sit down." Mr. Huo pointed at the sofa and said in a low voice.

Su Wanwan sat down cautiously, waiting for them to speak.

"Wanwan," Huo Yanshen said, "The old man has some new ideas about the prenuptial agreement."

Mr. Huo took over the conversation, "Miss Su, I heard that you have objections to some of the terms?"

Su Wanwan took a deep breath and looked into Mr. Huo's eyes. "Yes, Mr. Huo. I think some of the terms are too harsh and not conducive to building a harmonious family relationship."

Mr. Huo was silent for a moment, then said: "You have a point. However, you have to understand that these terms are to protect the interests of the Huo family."

Su Wanwan nodded, "I completely understand, old man. But I also hope you can understand that I am not only thinking about myself, but also about the child of Yan Shen and me."

Mr. Huo's eyes stayed on Su Wanwan for a long time, as if he was evaluating something. Finally, he said slowly: "Okay, I can consider relaxing some conditions. However, I have a request."

Su Wanwan held her breath, waiting for Mr. Huo's next words.

"I want you to prove your ability before you get married." Mr. Huo's voice was low and firm. "Use your strength to prove to the entire Huo family that you are qualified to become a member of our family."

Su Wanwan's heart was shocked. This was undoubtedly a huge challenge, but it was also a rare opportunity.

"I understand, old man." Su Wanwan said firmly, "I will definitely do my best."

Huo Yanshen glanced at Su Wanwan, with a hint of worry in his eyes. But he knew that this might be Su Wanwan's only chance to gain the family's recognition.

Su Wanwan felt very complicated when she left Huo Yanshen's office. On the one hand, she had gained more initiative for herself; on the other hand, she also clearly realized that the days ahead would be even more difficult.

Back in her office, Su Wanwan immediately threw herself into work. She knew that the only way to prove her ability to the Huo family in a short period of time was to make outstanding contributions in the company.

Just as she was concentrating on her work, an anonymous email suddenly popped up on her computer screen:

"If you want to know the truth about the Phoenix project, see you at the Old Pier at 8 o'clock tonight."

Su Wanwan stared at the message, her heart beating faster. She knew that this might be a trap, but it might also be the key to uncovering the truth.

Su Wanwan took a deep breath and made a decision. No matter how many dangers lay ahead, she had to find out. Because she knew that only by mastering enough chips could she be invincible in this game of the rich.

As night fell, Su Wanwan stood in the shadow of the old pier, waiting for the mysterious informant. The sea breeze blew her hair, bringing bursts of salty and bitter air.

She knew that she was standing at an important turning point. Everything that happened next might change her fate in the Huo family.

At this moment, a dark shadow quietly approached. Su Wanwan held her breath and clenched the anti-wolf spray in her hand.

"You're here." A deep voice sounded in the darkness.

Su Wanwan forced herself to stay calm, "Yes, I am here. Now, tell me the truth about the 'Phoenix' project."

The shadow was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "'Phoenix' is not just a project, it is related to the future of the entire Huo family. And you, Su Wanwan, may be the key to preventing the disaster from happening."

Su Wanwan felt dizzy and realized that she might have been involved in a situation that was far more complicated and dangerous than she had imagined.
