Chapter 551 The Rift Deepens
Night fell as the city lights began to twinkle. Just as the Lin Group had temporarily regained its footing with two counterattacks—one with "SEC clarification" and the other with "environmental rumors"—Lin Yun's "Plan F" was quietly brewing in the shadows, about to unleash a new wave of bloodshed.

First strike of "Plan F": Shen Yan breaks his promise
At 3 a.m., gunshots rang out in the group's security monitoring room—Shen Yan's special attendance card had been swiped at the back door of the headquarters building, and the footage showed him driving in alone late at night and then entering a restricted elevator.
The security captain urgently reported to Lin Chuyue: "President Lin, the surveillance footage has confirmed that it is Shen Yan himself. The footage lasts for an hour and he is carrying an unregistered visitor identity card."
Lin Chuyue frowned sharply: "Shouldn't he have been stripped of all his positions? Why is he still able to come and go freely?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yanchuan rushed to the monitoring room, pointing angrily at the screen: "What is he trying to do? Is he planning to steal company data and exploit our internal conflicts again?"
The disciplinary inspection team immediately launched an internal investigation, freezing Shen Yan's visitor card and all back-end access records. The first battle of "Plan F" was a success—smearing Shen Yan disrupted the rhythm of the three-way alliance of trust.

II. Shen Longyan's Self-Defense and Secret Request
At the same time, Shen Yan confronted the CR representative solemnly at a secret location:
"I'm just confirming whether there are any supplementary documents to the 'parent agreement' between Lin Chuyue and Gu Yanchuan. If not, I plan to collect more evidence to provide a legal basis for 'breaking the deadlock'."
The CR representative said coldly, "That sounds like an excuse. If you truly care about the truth, you should let them explain themselves; if you try to act covertly, it will only make people doubt your stance!"
Shen Longyan's face was grim, but he pleaded in a low voice, "Give me time. Once I get the original documents, I will release all the supplementary proposals and give them full justice..."

III. Shen Longyan and Lin Chuyue's Dialogue on Breaking Through
At dawn, Lin Chuyue suddenly visited the temporary interrogation room where Shen Yan was being held, and coldly questioned him:
"What were you doing with the visitor card last night? You said you were looking for evidence, but you've only dug a hole for yourself!"
Shen Yan said helplessly, "I know I made a mistake, but I obtained an electronic archive of the 'Frost Moon Inheritance'—it's the core document of the final settlement reached between your mother and the Gu family. You have to take a look!"
Lin Chuyue glared: "I don't need you to give me that document! I just want you to stop using faith to blackmail me and Gu Yanchuan!"
Shen Longyan knelt down with a thud: "Chuyue, I will never dare to act recklessly again. But you must know that this 'Plan F' is more terrifying than any storm—it wants you to be abandoned by everyone when you are at your most vulnerable!"

IV. Gu Yanchuan attacks his father
At the same moment, Gu Yanchuan, at the Gu family's old residence, confronts his father, Gu Yonghui:
"Father, do you even know who secretly manipulated my mother's 'Snow Fox Project,' which led to her becoming a walking corpse?"
Gu Yonghui's expression was complicated as he whispered, "I can only tell you that she had a private conversation with Lin Yun's mother two months before she died..."
Gu Yanchuan angrily rebuked, "You've been hiding it all along! You said you wanted to protect the family, but my mother was dragged into the conspiracy because of it; you said you would give me freedom, but I never knew the truth!"
The father and son faced off, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Gu Yonghui had no words to say and could only remain silent.
?
V. The Collaboration Between Lin Yun and CR
Late at night, in the conference room of Cheng Yi Foundation, Lin Yun sat facing a senior executive from CR. The CR representative held several USB drives in his hand: "The first move is to smear Shen Longyan; the second move is to have you breach the trust committee's last line of defense tonight—I have already arranged for someone to install a listening device in your father's office, and all the conversations between father and daughter point to you being 'dismissed'."
Lin Yun revealed a sinister smile: "Fine, let me see how much he loves fame and fortune; I'll make him think I'm his only support, and then push him into the abyss."
?
VI. The Break and Reconciliation Between Father and Daughter
Lin Zhengguo received a phone call from Lin Yun in his study. In the recording, Lin Yun cursed him, saying, "You even dare to betray your own flesh and blood," and finally said, "Dad, we are sworn enemies," before hanging up.
Lin Zhengguo looked at his daughter's photo, tears streaming down his face, unsure how to salvage the nearly broken father-daughter relationship.
?
VII. A desperate gamble before breaking the deadlock
As dawn broke, Lin Chuyue stood alone on the rooftop terrace of the headquarters. Gu Yanchuan suddenly appeared:
"We were pushed to the edge of a cliff, and if we took another step forward, we would be smashed to pieces."
Lin Chuyue turned around, her eyes firm yet weary: "I don't want to gamble with trust anymore, nor do I want to rely on others. But this time, I have to make the decision myself. We need to set a real test first—tonight we must find out the core executor of Cheng Yi Fund's 'Plan F,' otherwise we won't even be able to protect the remaining trusts."
The two stood facing each other as the first rays of dawn appeared on the horizon, but they could not illuminate the deepest rift in their hearts.
