Double evil in the business district

The documents in the folder were evidence of Mark's private transactions that Detective Liu had sorted out overnight. Every account was clear and every contract was stamped with Mark's private seal.

Mark's face turned from pale to gray, and fine beads of sweat oozed out of his forehead, soaking his temples.

The coffee shop was well air-conditioned, but he felt a chill on his back.

Back at the company, Xiao Yue immediately summoned Secretary Zhou and Detective Liu, and the office was filled with a tense atmosphere.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the city's traffic was like giant steel pythons, winding into the distance. The noisy sounds were blocked by the thick glass. The room was exceptionally quiet, with only the sound of shuffling papers and occasional whispers.

Xiao Yue's eyes were focused and determined. Her slender fingers tapped rhythmically on the table, once, twice, three times...

It's like beating the drums of victory.

"Yueyue, don't be anxious, let's take it slow." Shen Ting's voice was low and magnetic, like a warm current, soothing the anxiety in Xiao Yue's heart.

He walked behind Xiao Yue and gently placed his hand on her shoulder, giving her silent support.

Xiao Yue took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"We must break through this connection with Mark as soon as possible." She pointed to Mark's photo on the whiteboard and said firmly, "He holds key information about our cooperation with Mr. Chen. If we can't get it in time, we will suffer heavy losses."

"But if we use some unconventional means..." Secretary Zhou looked hesitant, "I'm worried that it might violate business ethics, or even..."

Xiao Yue paced back and forth in the office in annoyance, her high heels making crisp sounds against the wooden floor, hitting everyone's nerves one by one.

She knew that Secretary Zhou's concerns were correct, but the current situation could not be delayed.

"Business ethics?" Shen Ting sneered. "When Mark betrayed us, he had already thrown business ethics out the window." His eyes were as sharp as a hawk. "Yueyue, do whatever you want. I will fully support you."

Shen Ting's words gave Xiao Yue great encouragement. She stopped, went back to her desk, picked up a document and began to read it carefully.

Suddenly, her eyes fixed, and her finger stopped on an inconspicuous line of text on the document.

"Wait..." Xiao Yue's voice trembled a little, "This name..."

Xiao Yue stared at the line of text and his heart skipped a beat.

That ignored name, like a flash of lightning, cut through the fog in her mind.

She quickly retrieved the database and conducted a comparative analysis. Sure enough, this guy named "Li Ming" was inextricably linked to several suspicious transactions that Mark had made privately.

She immediately called Detective Liu and said urgently, "Detective Liu, please help me check Li Ming immediately. Make sure you find his contact information!"

Not long after the call was hung up, Detective Liu sent Li Ming's contact information.

Xiao Yue took a deep breath and dialed the number.

A slightly hoarse male voice came from the other end of the phone. Xiao Yue went straight to the point, directly stated his identity, and threw out some clues about Mark's transaction.

There was silence for a while on the other end of the phone, as if he was weighing the pros and cons. In the end, Li Ming chose to confess.

He revealed a shocking news to Xiao Yue that behind Mark's betrayal plan, there was a more mysterious figure, and this figure was the real mastermind behind it.

Upon hearing the news, Xiao Yue's heart was burning with passion, and she felt that victory was just around the corner.

She stood up excitedly, walked quickly to Secretary Zhou and told her the news.

After hearing this, Secretary Zhou clenched her fists excitedly, her eyes full of pride for Xiao Yue. "That's great, Sister Yue, you're amazing!"

Xiao Yue did not feel any extra joy, as she knew very well that now was not the time to relax.

She sorted out all the evidence, her eyes sharp, and called Mark again.

In the coffee shop, Mark looked at Xiao Yue's calm face, but his heart was like a raging storm.

Xiao Yue placed pieces of evidence in front of him. Those plans that he thought were perfect were now exposed to the sun like being stripped of their outer clothes.

"You...how do you know?" Mark's voice was hoarse and trembling with despair.

Xiao Yue sneered, looking directly into Mark's eyes with sharp eyes, "Do you think those little tricks of yours can be concealed from the world?" She slammed the documents on the table. The crisp sound echoed in the cafe, making Mark's heart twitch.

Mark tried to defend himself, but faced with irrefutable evidence, his pale words seemed powerless.

His face was as pale as paper, and beads of sweat on his forehead slid down his temples.

"I'm warning you, Mark, I will make you pay for everything you do." Xiao Yue's voice was cold, but with unquestionable majesty. She stood up, and her high heels made crisp sounds on the ground, each one of which seemed to hit Mark's heart.

Everyone around felt a strong aura and looked sideways.

"Let's go." Xiao Yue turned and said to Shen Ting and Secretary Zhou. She didn't give Mark any chance to breathe and left the cafe neatly.

Shen Ting looked at Xiao Yue's back with complicated eyes.

Secretary Zhou followed closely behind him and walked to the door of the coffee shop. She suddenly heard Shen Ting's low voice, "Yueyue, do you know who is behind this?"

Xiao Yue walked out of the cafe, the sunlight shining on her face, as if it was coated with a layer of victory glory.

Without any hesitation, she quickly dialed Public Relations Officer Wu's number and said, "Launch the crisis public relations plan and release the news of Mark's malicious competition. We must let the market see our Xiao Group's determination and strength." She spoke quickly, and every word was full of power.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yue's eyes became more determined.

She knew that now was not the time to celebrate, as there were still many things waiting for her to do.

She immediately instructed Secretary Zhou, "Notify the Legal Department immediately and initiate legal proceedings against Mark. Make sure he pays the price he deserves!" Her voice was crisp, and her tone was filled with unquestionable majesty.

Next, Xiao Yue quickly summoned the heads of various departments, and an emergency meeting was held in the top-floor conference room of the Xiao Building.

She analyzed the current situation in an orderly manner and clearly pointed out the direction that needed to be adjusted. Every step was precise and in place, which made everyone present admire her.

She decisively adjusted the business layout related to Mark Company, stopped losses in time, and minimized the potential losses of Xiao's Enterprise.

Her decisions are like precise scalpels, resolving crises one by one.

In the conference room, the sounds of keyboards tapping and papers shuffling were intertwined, but everyone was concentrating on carrying out Xiao Yue's orders. The atmosphere in the conference room was tense and efficient.

Outside the window, the setting sun gradually dyed the sky golden, but the lights in the conference room were still bright.

When the last department finished its report, it was already late at night.

Xiao Yue rubbed his sore temples, and when he looked up, he saw Shen Ting looking at him with a smile.

He walked up to her.

"Yueyue, you did a great job." His voice was low and gentle, like a ray of sunshine in winter, warming Xiao Yue's heart.

He gave Xiao Yue a passionate hug in public, holding her tightly in his arms, as if he wanted to melt her into his own bones and blood.

Xiao Yue also responded to him enthusiastically, resting her head on his chest, feeling his strong heartbeat.

The employees around them applauded them and wished the couple who had gone through so much hardship well.

Xiao Yue's decisive decision saved Xiao's company from danger. She became Xiao's hero, and her prestige within the company reached an unprecedented height.

When the employees looked at her,

After everything was done, Xiao Yue felt tired. She leaned in Shen Ting's arms, closed her eyes, and enjoyed a moment of peace.

However, at this moment, Shen Ting's voice rang in her ears, with a hint of subtle solemnity, "Yueyue, do you know who is behind this?"

Xiao Yue did not hesitate at all. She knew very well that in the business world, a temporary failure was not terrible. What was terrible was losing the courage to fight again.

She quickly adjusted her mood, with a firm and confident light flashing in her eyes.

She picked up the phone again, slid her slender fingers across the screen, and dialed a number marked as "Chen, the big boss in the industry" in the address book.

The phone rang three times before it was picked up. A deep and magnetic male voice came from the other end, with a hint of curiosity: "Miss Xiao, it's so late, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Xiao Yue went straight to the point without any politeness, her tone firm and confident: "Mr. Chen, I need to discuss a cooperation with you about the future of our Xiao Group." Her voice was crisp and powerful, and it was particularly clear in the silent office.

After listening to Xiao Yue's statement, industry leader Chen laughed heartily and said, "Ms. Xiao, I admire your courage and ability. I look forward to working with you to create brilliance together!"

The two parties finalized the preliminary cooperation intention, and Xiao Yue's tense nerves finally relaxed a little. She felt relieved, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders.

She walked out of the office, the night breeze blowing on her cheeks, bringing a hint of coolness, making her much more awake.

The next day, the news that Xiao Enterprise and industry tycoon Chen had reached a preliminary cooperation intention quickly spread throughout the entire business circle, attracting countless envious eyes.

Xiao Enterprise's stock price continued to rise, and its market value also increased significantly.

The morale of the company's employees was greatly boosted, and they were full of admiration for Xiao Yue's leadership ability.

However, just when everyone in Xiao's enterprise was immersed in joy, an uninvited guest broke the tranquility.

Secretary Zhou hurried into Xiao Yue's office, holding an exquisite challenge letter in his hand, with a hint of anxiety and uneasiness on his face.

She placed the challenge letter on Xiao Yue's desk, her voice trembling slightly: "Sister Yue, we have received a challenge letter from another competitor!"

Xiao Yue slowly opened the letter of challenge and glanced at the words on it. His sharp eyes instantly became cold, like frost in the cold winter.

The arrogant handwriting on the letter of challenge was full of provocation, and the words were full of disdain and contempt for the Xiao family.

Her slender fingers tightly grasped the edge of the challenge letter, her fingertips turning white, silently conveying her current mood.

The air in the office seemed to be frozen, so oppressive that it made people breathless.

She raised her head, her eyes deep and firm, like the stars in the dark night, impossible to ignore.

She spoke slowly, her voice cold and tinged with a hint of chill: "Secretary Zhou, call Public Relations Officer Wu."

Secretary Zhou immediately responded and left, leaving Xiao Yue alone in the office. She sat quietly at her desk, the letter of challenge in her hand trembling slightly.

She knew very well that this would be a tough battle. The other party came prepared and was definitely not a pushover, but she would never back down. She wanted to let those who coveted the Xiao family know that she, Xiao Yue, was not someone to be trifled with!

When Public Relations Officer Wu came in, he saw Xiao Yue's calm and deep face. There was no panic in her eyes, but instead an unquestionable domineering aura.

Public Relations Officer Wu stood quietly aside, waiting for Xiao Yue's instructions.

Xiao Yue didn't say anything. She just picked up the challenge letter and handed it to Public Relations Wu.

Public Relations Officer Wu took the letter of challenge and just glanced at it before his expression became serious.

She looked at Xiao Yue,

Xiao Yue looked at Public Relations Wu's expression, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a sneer, "Go and prepare, I want to let those people know that the strength of the Xiao family is not something they can shake." After saying that, she turned her head and looked out the window, her eyes deep and unpredictable.

Public Relations Officer Wu nodded, turned and left, and the office fell into silence again.

At this moment, Xiao Yue slowly picked up the landline on the table and dialed a familiar number. A deep and magnetic male voice came from the other end of the phone: "Yueyue, what's wrong?"

Xiao Yue did not answer. She just took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly. She looked at the challenge letter with a deep and unpredictable look.
