Double evil in the business district

Chapter 123: Victory Overcomes All Difficulties

Late at night in the office, the air was stagnant, filled with the low hum of printers and the bitter aroma of coffee.

Xiao Yue and Shen Ting fought side by side. The table was piled with litigation documents, like small mountains, making it hard to breathe.

The lawsuit filed by OneWorld Group and several other companies is like a sword of Damocles hanging over their heads, which may fall at any time and cut off everything they have worked hard to build.

"All the 'evidence' they provided is forged!" Xiao Yue's fingers were tightly gripping a document, his knuckles turning white, and his tone was filled with suppressed anger.

Shen Ting's deep gaze swept over every word on the document, his thin lips tightly pursed, and a cold aura emanated from his body.

"What did Lawyer Qian say?"

"Lawyer Qian's team is making every effort to investigate, but time is too tight. The other party is well prepared, and we must find evidence to fight back as soon as possible." Xiao Yue's brows were furrowed, and her beautiful face was full of worry.

If they lose the case, not only will the company face huge compensation, but their reputation will also plummet, and their chances of recovery will be slim.

As time passed, the atmosphere in the office became more and more depressing.

Xiao Yue and Shen Ting hardly closed their eyes, constantly reading through materials, analyzing the case, and trying to find a breakthrough.

Shen Ting's phone kept vibrating. These were calls from various parties asking for information. He answered them concisely and with a calm tone, but he couldn't hide the fatigue between his brows.

Three days later, Lawyer Qian walked into the office with a serious expression.

"We found a key witness—Accountant Zhao, an accountant in the Finance Department of Universal Group. She holds key information about their fabricated evidence."

The dawn of hope finally appeared. Xiao Yue and Shen Ting looked at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes.

However, things did not go as smoothly as expected.

Accountant Zhao suddenly disappeared at the critical moment and could not be contacted, and the clues were interrupted again.

The atmosphere in the office fell to the bottom again. Xiao Yue's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible big hand, and she could hardly breathe.

Just then, Lawyer Qian's phone rang.

After he answered the phone, an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

"Accountant Zhao has been found! She's in... a private nursing home."

Xiao Yue and Shen Ting were worried again.

nursing home?

How could an ordinary accountant suddenly appear in a nursing home?

"Also," Lawyer Qian paused, his tone becoming more meaningful, "she said...she has something important to tell us."

Xiao Yue and Shen Ting immediately rushed to the sanatorium.

Accountant Zhao looked pale and haggard. When he saw them come in, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination.

"I know I'll offend a lot of people by doing this, but... I can't go against my conscience any longer." She trembled as she pulled a document from under her pillow. "This is... evidence that Universal Group bribed the judge."

This is undoubtedly a bombshell.

Xiao Yue and Shen Ting looked at the documents in their hands in shock. They clearly recorded the financial transactions between Universal Group and the judge, and how they colluded to forge evidence with the intention of framing Xiao and Shen's enterprises.

After learning the news, Lawyer Qian immediately submitted the evidence to the court and reported the illegal behavior of Universal Group to the relevant departments.

The conspiracy of Universal Group was completely exposed. Their representative lawyer's face turned pale, like a deflated ball, unable to speak anymore.

In court, Lawyer Qian spoke passionately, citing classics and leaving the opposing lawyer speechless.

He presented all the evidence one by one with clear logic and powerful arguments, completely shattering the lies of the Universal Group.

In the end, the judge announced that Xiao and Shen's companies won the case!

There was a burst of warm applause in the audience.

Xiao Yue and Shen Ting hugged each other tightly, and their hearts finally settled down.

At this moment, they have experienced the ups and downs together, defeated powerful enemies, and their feelings for each other have become deeper.

Tears glistened in Xiao Yue's eyes. She raised her head and looked at Shen Ting, her excitement beyond words.

The news of the victory quickly spread throughout the business community. Not only did the reputation of Xiao and Shen's companies not suffer, but because of this lawsuit, they won the respect and trust of more people.

The voices of doubt and ridicule have now turned into praise and admiration.

At the celebration banquet, there was toasting and laughter.

Shen Ting's eyes always followed Xiao Yue. Her bright smile was like a ray of sunshine in winter, warming his heart.

He walked over to her and gently raised his glass. "Xiao Yue," his voice was low and magnetic, "thank you."

Xiao Yue also raised her glass and clinked it with his, "This is the result of our joint efforts."

A subtle tenderness flashed across Shen Ting's eyes. He slowly lowered his head and approached Xiao Yue...

"Mr. Shen, Mr. Wang Ciren wants to see you." Secretary Lin's voice suddenly rang out, breaking the delicate atmosphere between the two.

Shen Ting frowned slightly...

Shen Ting looked at Xiao Yue. The joy of victory and the long-suppressed emotions converged at this moment. He couldn't help but lean over and gently kissed Xiao Yue on her smooth forehead.

Xiao Yue's cheeks instantly turned red, like a ripe apple, and her heart was beating like a drum.

There was an ambiguous atmosphere between the two of them, and the noisy celebrations around them seemed to have disappeared, leaving only each other's breathing and heartbeats.

The news of the victory spread throughout the business community like wildfire.

Those partners who were previously skeptical of Xiao and Shen's companies and even took advantage of them have now changed their attitudes and come to seek cooperation with flattering smiles.

The phones of Xiao and Shen’s companies were bombarded with calls, and invitations to cooperate came in like snowflakes.

The company's fame reached unprecedented heights, and its stock price soared, setting new records.

The names of Xiao Yue and Shen Ting have become new legends in the business world.

Just as the company was thriving, Xiao Yue keenly spotted a new business opportunity at an industry summit.

Once this opportunity is seized, it will bring greater development space to Xiao and Shen's companies, and may even push the companies into the international market.

However, Xiao Yue also realized that there seemed to be some unknown risks and challenges hidden behind this opportunity, and some unknown undercurrents were surging.

She told Shen Ting about her discovery, and a hint of solemnity flashed in Shen Ting's deep eyes.

Charitable Wang walked up to Shen Ting with a smile on his face and handed him a glass of champagne. "Mr. Shen, congratulations on your victory! You are such a promising young man!" He seemed enthusiastic, but his eyes were flickering, as if he had other intentions.

Shen Ting politely took the wine glass and observed Wang Cirenjia's every move calmly.

After a few pleasantries, Wang the philanthropist finally revealed the purpose of his visit: "Mr. Shen, I am holding this charity dinner and would like to invite you and Miss Xiao to participate and contribute to charity." He paused and added meaningfully, "Of course, I also hope to take this opportunity to discuss some cooperation projects in depth with Mr. Shen." Shen Ting's eyes fell on Xiao Yue, who was talking to Secretary Lin not far away. Secretary Lin looked a little nervous, as if deliberately avoiding Xiao Yue's gaze.

Shen Ting narrowed his eyes slightly, and a meaningful arc appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Mr. Wang Ciren's invitation is so kind, I naturally cannot refuse it."

He turned and walked towards Xiao Yue, held her hand, and felt the slight coolness in her palm.

"let's go."
