Love is a mistake that cannot be escaped
Chapter 52 Another Unexpected Turn of Events
Du Yue's words echoed in my ears, like a thorn stuck in my heart.
I tried to calm myself down, took a deep breath, and told myself not to lose my composure.
I was about to tell Gu Yichen about the call when I looked up and found him standing at the study door with a solemn expression, holding his phone, his face terribly pale.
"What's wrong?" My heart tightened, and an ominous premonition welled up inside me.
"The company...something has happened to the company."
His voice was hoarse, as if every word had exhausted all his strength.
I suddenly realized that this was what Du Yue meant by "grand gift".
She wanted to completely destroy Gu Yichen!
The next few days felt like an endless darkness.
News of the company's broken cash flow spread quickly, banks demanded repayment, partners withdrew their investments, and everyone in the company was filled with anxiety.
Gu Yichen worked tirelessly day and night, trying to turn the tide, but it was as if he was struggling in a quagmire, and the harder he tried, the deeper he sank.
"How could this happen? The company's accounts have always been clear, how could the cash flow suddenly break down?"
I anxiously questioned Lu Mingxuan, who had been helping to investigate the matter.
Lu Mingxuan frowned, his expression grave: "I've checked. A huge sum of money has indeed disappeared from the company's accounts, and..."
He paused, his tone becoming more serious, "I suspect that someone is manipulating all of this behind the scenes."
"Who is it?" I asked eagerly, already having a vague idea of the answer in my mind.
“Du Yue.” Lu Mingxuan uttered these two words, his eyes filled with anger and coldness.
She had been secretly manipulating the company's stock. This recent cash flow crisis was a trap she set to completely destroy Gu Yichen!
Hearing Lu Mingxuan's analysis, I suddenly felt a chill run down my spine.
Du Yue, how could she be so vicious? In order to get revenge, she actually wants to destroy everything Gu Yichen has!
I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down.
Now is not the time to panic; I must face this together with Gu Yichen.
I walked up to him, took his cold hand, and said firmly, "Don't worry, we'll face this together, and we'll definitely get through this."
He looked up, and the weariness and pain in his eyes broke my heart.
He grasped my hand in return and said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you, Yan Yan. It's good that you're here with me."
We all know this is a tough battle, but we have no way out.
We split up. Gu Yichen actively contacted various resources to stabilize the company's situation, while I began to sort out the company's financial situation and look for ways to solve the funding gap.
These days, we practically live at the company, and we're busy to the point of exhaustion every day.
Even the little kids were brought to the company and became our little "logistics ministers".
Although he didn't understand what was happening, he was sensitive to his parents' anxiety and exhaustion.
One evening, I was working overtime organizing documents when my little one suddenly ran over, hugged my leg, and said in a sweet, childish voice, "Mommy, don't be sad. How about I dance for you?"
My heart warmed, I put down the documents in my hand, picked him up, and kissed his little face: "Baby, thank you, you are truly Mommy's little angel."
He giggled, slid off my lap, and began to dance the dance he had learned in kindergarten.
Looking at his innocent and naive smile, the gloom in my heart seemed to dissipate a little.
Yes, for the sake of the child, I must pull myself together and protect our home with Gu Yichen!
The little cutie's dance is like a shot of adrenaline, helping us regain confidence when we're exhausted.
Gu Yichen also temporarily put down his work, and the father and son played around together. I couldn't help but smile slightly.
Just then, there was a gentle knock on the office door, and Gu Yichen, Gu Yichen's younger brother, walked in.
He still looked sickly, pale-faced, but his eyes were unusually firm.
He handed a document to Gu Yichen: "Brother, this is some information I've compiled these past few days, which may be helpful for the company's current situation."
Gu Yichen was somewhat surprised: "Yichen, how could you..."
Gu Yichen smiled, a hint of bitterness in his smile: "Although my health condition doesn't allow me to fight in the business world like you, I've been keeping an eye on the company's situation. I also want to do my part in this matter."
It was then that I remembered that although Gu Yichen was in poor health, he had shown amazing business talent since childhood and had a keen insight into numbers and the market.
Over the years, although he has not been directly involved in the company's management, he has been quietly watching from behind the scenes.
Gu Yichen opened the file and began to read it carefully.
The document provides a detailed analysis of the company's current predicament and proposes a series of countermeasures, each of which is incisive and insightful.
"Yichen, you came up with all of these?" Gu Yichen looked up, his eyes full of admiration.
Gu Yichen nodded: "Brother, you have always been my pride. I can't just stand by and watch everything you've worked so hard to build be destroyed."
Believe me, we will definitely get through this.
Gu Yichen's arrival has injected new hope and strength into our company. The strategies he proposed have provided a new direction for the company's development and bought us valuable breathing space.
With everyone's joint efforts, the company gradually emerged from its predicament, and its cash flow was restored.
Having weathered this storm, the bond between Gu Yichen and me has only grown stronger.
We support and rely on each other, like two trees leaning on each other, together resisting the onslaught of wind and rain.
I know that the road ahead is long and new challenges await us, but I believe that as long as we join hands, we will be able to overcome all difficulties.
As the company's business gradually returned to normal, the tension slowly eased.
On a weekend afternoon, the sunlight lazily streamed into the living room. I was playing with building blocks with my little one when Gu Yichen's phone suddenly rang.
"Hello?" He answered the phone, his brows furrowing as his tone turned serious. "What did you say?... How could this happen?... I understand, I'll be right there."
He hung up the phone and said to me with a serious expression, "Fu Yan, something has happened at the company, I have to go there right away."
My heart tightened, and a strange unease welled up inside me: "What's wrong? Is it serious?"
"It's not clear yet, but I have to get there right away."
As he put on his coat, he reassured me, "Don't worry, I'll handle it."
After he left, I was constantly on edge, feeling like something bad was about to happen.
Time ticked by, and my unease grew stronger. Finally, I couldn't resist dialing his number.
"Hello, Fu Yan?" His voice sounded somewhat tired.
"Yichen, how is it? What happened?" I asked anxiously.
He paused for a few seconds before slowly saying, "The company... all the funds in the company account have been transferred out..."
My head went blank, as if I had been hit hard by something.
How could this happen? The company finally overcame a difficult period, how could this happen?
"Who did it? Has it been found out?" I tried to stay calm.
“The investigation is still ongoing, but…” His voice carried a hint of weakness, “I suspect it is…”
"who is it?"
Before he could answer, a sudden burst of noise came from the other end of the phone, followed by his exclamation: "Watch out!"
"Yichen! Yichen! What happened? Yichen!"
I shouted at the top of my lungs, but all I heard on the other end of the line was a busy signal.
My heart sank to the bottom, and an inexplicable fear gripped me like vines...
