Chapter 154 The Truth Begins to Emerge
The next morning, Li Zhanchuan's assistant, Jiang Mo, handed over the investigation results. Lin Chuyue and Li Zhanchuan sat together in the office, looking at the documents Jiang Mo had brought.
“President Lin, Zhang Qiang does have a problem.” Jiang Mo opened a document and pushed a table in front of Lin Chuyue. “This is the financial transaction record we found for Zhang Qiang recently. His personal account suddenly saw several large transfers in the past week, and the source of the transfers was an offshore company registered in the Cayman Islands.”
Lin Chuyue frowned: "Cayman Islands? Under what pretext was this money transferred to him?"
"Consulting fees," Jiang Mo replied. "Moreover, this company has a transaction record with a shell company previously under Shen Fang's name."
Li Zhanchuan snorted coldly: "It seems that although Shen Fang has left temporarily, she has already made arrangements. She wants to use these petty tricks to wear down Chuyue."
Lin Chuyue gripped the document in her hand tightly, her voice icy: "Zhang Qiang must be dealt with, but the bigger problem behind him is the key."
Li Zhanchuan nodded: "Don't worry, leave the rest to me."
Zhang Qiang's flaw
Half an hour later, Zhang Qiang was called to the office again. He looked much more flustered than yesterday, and cold sweat was beading on his forehead.
Lin Chuyue threw the transfer record in front of him, her tone cold and direct: "Zhang Qiang, what's going on here?"
Zhang Qiang glanced down, his face turning deathly pale. He involuntarily took a half-step back: "President Lin, I... I can explain..."
"Explain?" Lin Chuyue sneered, arms crossed, her gaze sharp as a knife. "I'm giving you one last chance. Tell me everything you know. Otherwise, you know the consequences."
Zhang Qiang swallowed hard, his voice trembling as he said, "President Lin, I was forced into this! When the people from that company approached me, they said they could give me a generous reward, as long as I helped transfer some funds."
"Forcing you?" Lin Chuyue took a step closer, staring intently into his eyes. "Who's behind this, directing you?"
Zhang Qiang lowered his head, not daring to meet her gaze. After hesitating for a long time, he said in a trembling voice, "It was Shen Fang... She left instructions before she left, telling me to seize the opportunity to disrupt the company's financial operations."
When Lin Chuyue heard this name, she frowned slightly and asked coldly, "What benefits did she give you?"
"She promised that she would help me go abroad after it was done, and she would also give me a huge sum of money..." Zhang Qiang's voice grew softer and softer until it was almost inaudible.
Lin Chuyue snorted coldly and turned to look at Li Zhanchuan: "Zhanchuan, what do you think of this matter?"
Li Zhanchuan leaned back on the sofa, his gaze icy: "A person like Zhang Qiang should be handed over to the law. As for Shen Fang's arrangements—since she dared to make a move, she shouldn't expect to get away with it easily."
Lin Chuyue nodded, her tone resolute: "Okay, then we'll do it your way."
Shen Fang's other card
That same evening, Shen Fang, far away abroad, was enjoying wine in a luxurious villa while listening to her subordinates report the latest developments.
"Zhang Qiang has been exposed, and Lin Chuyue and Li Zhanchuan are working together to deal with him," the subordinate whispered.
Shen Fang sneered upon hearing this: "So what if he's been exposed? He was just a pawn to begin with. My real plan hasn't even started yet."
She took a sip of red wine, a cold glint in her eyes: "Lin Chuyue thinks she's won, but she doesn't know that I have an even bigger plan."
The subordinate hesitated for a moment: "But Lin Chuyue has Li Zhanchuan by her side, and his methods should not be underestimated..."
“I know,” Shen Fang interrupted coldly, “but what can Li Zhanchuan do? No matter how powerful he is, he can’t be omnipotent. My backup plan is enough to give them a headache.”
Lin Chuyue's response
After returning home that evening, Lin Chuyue sat in her study, organizing the thoughts from the day. Moonlight streamed in through the window, casting a soft glow over the room.
Li Zhanchuan walked in carrying a glass of warm milk and placed it on the table: "Still thinking about what happened during the day?"
"Hmm." Lin Chuyue looked up at him, her eyes showing a hint of weariness. "Shen Fang is still causing trouble abroad. I'm wondering what her next move will be."
Li Zhanchuan sat down beside her, his voice low and steady: "Whatever her plans, we can handle them. My men are already monitoring her every move; she won't have another chance to turn the tables."
Lin Chuyue smiled and gently took his hand: "With you here, I really feel much more at ease."
Li Zhanchuan's gaze softened, and his voice was deep and warm: "Lin Chuyue, you don't need to shoulder everything alone. With me here, we'll face any storm together."
Lin Chuyue looked at him, a warm feeling welling up in her heart, and said softly, "Thank you, Zhanchuan."
