Double evil in the business district

Under the dazzling crystal chandeliers, the sweet aroma of champagne filled the air. The applause and blessings had not yet faded away, but the piece of paper in Xiao Yue's hand was like a basin of ice water, extinguishing all her joy.

"Be careful of the people around you." These few short words were like a thorn that pierced deeply into her heart.

Shen Ting's face also turned gloomy, and a cold light flashed in his deep eyes.

Xiao Yue tried hard to suppress the uneasiness in his heart, holding the letter tightly in his hand, his fingertips turning white.

She forced herself to smile at Shen Ting and said, "It's okay, it might be a prank." However, her flickering eyes and trembling voice betrayed her inner fear.

Back in the hotel room, Xiao Yue could no longer remain calm.

She looked at the note again and again, and countless possibilities emerged in her mind.

Who sent it?

What is the purpose?

Is it directed at her or at Xiao Enterprise?

"Be careful of the people around you..." These words echoed in her ears like a spell, making her shudder.

The next morning, Xiao Yue called a meeting of the technical team.

She told everyone about the anonymous letter and asked everyone to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the project to find possible loopholes.

The atmosphere in the conference room was extremely solemn.

Engineer Zhao frowned and kept looking through the technical data, but he could not find a breakthrough.

"Mr. Zhao, is there any progress in technical improvements?" Xiao Yue asked.

Engineer Zhao sighed, "Mr. Xiao, we still can't break through the current technical bottleneck. I've tried various methods, but the results are not satisfactory."

Xiao Yue's heart sank.

Technical issues have always been the biggest challenge for environmental protection projects. If they are not resolved as soon as possible, the project cannot be completed on time.

At this moment, Technician Chen, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up: "Mr. Xiao, I have an idea..." He explained his ideas in detail, and the new technical improvement plan made Xiao Yue's eyes light up.

"Technician Chen, your idea is very creative and worth a try!" Xiao Yue's tone was full of hope.

In the next few days, Xiao Yue led the technical team to make technical improvements day and night.

At the same time, she began to secretly investigate the source of the anonymous letter.

Secretary Wu handed the organized project information to Xiao Yue, "Mr. Xiao, this is all the information you requested."

Xiao Yue took the information and carefully read it, hoping to find some clues...

Suddenly, her eyes stopped on a document.

"Wait..." Xiao Yue's voice was low and rapid.

Xiao Yue stared at the document in his hand, his breathing gradually becoming rapid.

This is a loan agreement signed with President Sun. The amount on the agreement does not match the actual amount received.

She suddenly remembered President Sun's indifferent attitude when he refused to provide additional loans a few days ago, and a chill ran up from the soles of her feet to her head.

Is it...

It's him?

At this time, Shen Ting pushed the door open and saw Xiao Yue's pale face, a document tightly clenched in his hand. He asked with concern, "What's wrong? Did you find something?"

Xiao Yue raised his head, his eyes filled with complex emotions, including shock, anger, and a hint of fear.

"Ting, I think I know who is behind this..." She handed the loan agreement to Shen Ting and told him her suspicions.

Shen Ting took the agreement, looked over it carefully, and his expression became solemn.

"If it's really him, then things will be troublesome." He is well aware of President Sun's influence in the industry. If he really wants to harm the Xiao family, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Shen Ting noticed Xiao Yue's uneasiness, held her hand tightly and gave her strength, "Don't worry, no matter what happens, I will be with you." His warm big hand wrapped around Xiao Yue's cold hand, and a force came from his palm, which gradually calmed her originally panicked heart.

She took a deep breath and nodded, "Well, we'll face it together."

Xiao Yue began to try to improve the technology according to the new ideas proposed by Technician Chen.

Although the new plan made good progress in the early stages, it soon encountered new bottlenecks.

Engineer Zhao was at a loss, and the atmosphere in the team became tense again.

At the critical moment, Technician Chen once again put forward a bold idea.

Although this idea has certain risks, it is the only breakthrough at present.

Xiao Yue made a quick decision and decided to give it a try.

After several days of unremitting efforts by the team, the new technical solution finally made a breakthrough.

All indicators met the expected requirements and the technical bottleneck was finally overcome.

The tired team members smiled with relief.

Xiao Yue looked at the latest test data, her heart filled with joy, but the shadow of the anonymous letter still loomed over her mind.

She knew that this was only the first step in a long journey and greater challenges lay ahead.

She picked up the phone and dialed a number. "Hello, Environmentalist Li, I'd like to report to you on the latest technical progress of our project..."

Environmentalist Li and his team arrived at Xiao's environmental protection project site and meticulously checked various indicators.

The air was filled with a faint smell of earth, intertwined with the low roar of running machines, playing the march of the Xiao family's future destiny.

Xiao Yue calmly reported the latest technological improvements to Environmentalist Li, with accurate data and clear logic.

Environmentalist Li's expression gradually relaxed from the initial seriousness. Finally, he nodded with satisfaction: "Mr. Xiao, it is not easy for you to make such progress in such a short period of time. Xiao's sense of social responsibility is admirable." This undoubtedly gave Xiao Yue a shot in the arm.

However, after leaving the project site, Xiao Yue's brows furrowed again.

Although the technical difficulties have been temporarily solved, the funding gap is still like a mountain, making her breathless.

She came to the bank again, hoping to convince President Sun. However, President Sun remained indifferent, even with a hint of sarcasm: "Mr. Xiao, I've told you that your project is too risky and we can't lend you the money." Xiao Yue argued with reason, but it was like playing the lute to a cow.

Walking out of the bank, Xiao Yue felt weak, as if all his strength had been drained away.

In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on Xiao Yue's desk, dyeing everything with a light golden color.

Xiao Yue rubbed his temples tiredly, and the phone on the table suddenly rang.

She glanced at the caller ID and saw it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello?" Xiao Yue answered the phone.

"Mr. Xiao, I heard that you've been worried about funding recently..." The voice on the other end of the phone was low and hoarse, with a hint of mystery.

Xiao Yue's heart skipped a beat, and an inexplicable premonition came to his mind.

"Who are you?" "It doesn't matter who I am," the other party chuckled, "What's important is that I know how to solve your problem..." Xiao Yue's hand holding the phone tightened unconsciously, "What do you mean?" "Tomorrow at noon, room 1208 of the Regent Hotel, I'll wait for you." After the other party finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

beep...

Xiao Yue stared at the phone in his hand, his eyes flickering.

She slowly stood up and walked to the window, looking at the gradually darkening sky, her heart filled with anxiety...

"Regency Hotel..." She muttered under her breath, then picked up her coat and strode out of the office.
