Chapter 190 Intimacy
The morning sunlight streamed through the blinds into the study, illuminating the scattered documents on Lin Chuyue's desk and the open computer screen. After a night of analysis, Lin Chuyue had a clearer understanding of the traps left behind by Shen Fang and Zhao Zhenghai's scheme. She lowered her head, her gaze fixed on the screen, her fingers lightly tapping the table, lost in thought.
Zhao Zhenghai is far more complex than he appears. Shen Fang is merely a pawn in his game. Zhao Zhenghai's true targets remain the high-ranking executives who control the company's shares and resources. He knows that only by completely controlling the company's core can he truly threaten Lin Chuyue.
A resolute glint flashed in Lin Chuyue's eyes. She was not afraid of this struggle; on the contrary, her determination to wipe out these dark forces became even stronger. She knew that the next move would be the key to completely changing the situation.
She picked up the phone and dialed Li Zhanchuan's number. After a few rings, he answered, his voice still carrying the low hue of early morning: "What's wrong? Why are you calling so early?"
Lin Chuyue chuckled softly, her tone calm and firm: "Zhan Chuan, we need to speed things up. Zhao Zhenghai's backing is far more complex than we imagined. His target isn't just Shen Fang, but more importantly, to control the core resources of the entire company."
Li Zhanchuan was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, then said in a steady voice, "I know. The people behind him are not to be underestimated, but don't worry, I will mobilize more resources to ensure that we don't lose this round easily."
Lin Chuyue's gaze shifted, her eyes revealing a hint of decisiveness: "We need to unite more forces. I need you to contact other board members now and see if anyone is willing to stand on our side."
Li Zhanchuan was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, then replied, "Okay, I'll arrange it."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Chuyue silently gazed out the window. Sunlight bathed her face, adding a soft glow to her features. However, her eyes held a deep coldness, as if no matter how the outside world changed, she was always the player who controlled her own destiny.
Just then, her phone screen flashed; it was a message from Wang Peng. She quickly opened it and saw a document he had sent. The document detailed Zhao Zhenghai's recent clandestine transactions abroad, as well as his connections with several international investment companies. This information undoubtedly provided Lin Chuyue with crucial clues.
She sneered, carefully flipping through the documents, her gaze sharpening. "Zhao Zhenghai is indeed not simple."
Just then, the office door was gently pushed open, and Li Gang walked in. His expression was slightly more somber than usual, clearly indicating that something was making him uneasy.
"Chuyue, there are some things I think you need to know," Li Gang said in a low voice as he walked to the table.
Lin Chuyue looked up, a hint of doubt in her eyes: "What happened?"
Li Gang placed a bank transfer record on the table, pointed to some numbers on it, and said, "These transfers are recent. I've verified them. The flow of these funds is somewhat unusual, and it seems to be related to some of Zhao Zhenghai's people. Moreover, the funds are going to...overseas."
Lin Chuyue frowned slightly as she looked at the rows of numbers, a sense of unease rising within her. "What is the relationship between Zhao Zhenghai and these funds?"
“I don’t know, but I suspect that the flow of these funds may be related to the trap that Shen Fang set before,” Li Gang said in a deep voice. “We may have underestimated Zhao Zhenghai’s methods. He has obviously begun to make arrangements, and a larger-scale plan is probably yet to come.”
Lin Chuyue nodded, took a deep breath, and slowly said, "I understand. We can't delay any longer. Next, Zhan Chuan and I will prepare to confront Zhao Zhenghai head-on."
Her resolve grew stronger, and she was prepared to face any challenge that came her way.
However, just as Lin Chuyue was about to continue analyzing the documents, her phone suddenly vibrated a few times. She glanced at it instinctively and saw Gu Yanchuan's name displayed on the screen.
This surprised and somewhat astonished her. Gu Yanchuan's current attitude still puzzled her; although their engagement had been dissolved, his concern for her had never disappeared. Lin Chuyue pondered for a moment before answering the phone.
"Hello?" Her voice was cold and low.
On the other end of the phone, Gu Yanchuan's voice was calm and steady: "Chuyue, I've recently learned about some things that you need to be aware of."
Lin Chuyue's heart raced slightly. She didn't respond immediately but waited for Gu Yanchuan to continue.
“Zhao Zhenghai might take more drastic measures to suppress you. Although your position in the company is currently stable, those people are secretly plotting and could launch an attack on you at any time.” Gu Yanchuan’s tone was very serious. “I suggest you prepare for this in advance.”
Lin Chuyue's heart skipped a beat, but her face remained expressionless: "Thank you for reminding me, Yanchuan. You're right, I'll be careful."
Gu Yanchuan paused for a moment, his tone seemingly complicated: "You do what you can, and leave the rest to me."
A barely perceptible flicker of emotion flashed in Lin Chuyue's eyes as she softly replied, "Yes, I will."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Chuyue leaned back in her chair, remaining motionless for a long time. She knew that although her engagement with Gu Yanchuan had been dissolved, he was still the man who would stand up for her.
However, whether this relationship could ever return to its former intimacy remained a question Lin Chuyue couldn't answer.
She took a deep breath, lowered her head again, and continued flipping through the documents. She knew the road ahead would be even more difficult, but she was prepared to stand against the entire world.
