"Yichen!" I rushed to his side, but he grabbed my wrist.

"I'm fine, just too tired." He gasped for breath, his voice weak but firm. "Lu Mingxuan, call the police and say someone is framing you."

Lu Mingxuan was stunned for a moment, then realized what he had done and slapped his forehead. "That's right! How could I not have thought of that! I'll call the police right now!"

He frantically pulled out his phone, but then let it fall limply like a deflated balloon. "No, my dad's phone has been confiscated, and I can't contact the lawyer he trusts."

"I'll come." Gu Yichen calmly dialed a number, said a few words briefly and forcefully, and then hung up. "The lawyer will be here in five minutes."

My heart calmed down a little as I looked at the three men in front of me: one was the man I loved deeply, one was my childhood friend, and one was Gu Yichen's younger brother. At this moment, they were all caught up in this storm because of me.

I secretly vowed that I would never let them suffer injustice for nothing.

"Ah Chen, contact the media and make the whole story public. I refuse to believe that Du Yue can cover up everything!"

I clenched my fists, my eyes blazing with fury.

"it is good."

Gu Yichen nodded and immediately began making phone calls to the media.

Just then, the adorable child, who had been silent all along, suddenly tugged at my sleeve and said in a sweet, childish voice, "Auntie, I know where the bad woman hid the evidence!"

My heart skipped a beat, and I quickly squatted down, looking into the child's innocent big eyes, and asked, "Little one, what do you know? Tell Auntie quickly!"

The cute little girl took a small USB flash drive out of her pocket, held it up to me, and said, "I found this in the bad woman's room yesterday. She seemed very nervous about it and even hid it."

I took the USB drive, a surge of joy welling up inside me. This might be the key to our victory! I gripped the USB drive tightly, as if holding a spark of hope. Lu Mingxuan leaned closer, his eyes gleaming behind his glasses. "The contents of this USB drive might just be the key to bringing down Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao!"

He immediately pulled a slim laptop from his briefcase, connected a USB drive, and began typing furiously on the keyboard.

As lines of code flashed by, my heart jumped into my throat.

"Found it!" Lu Mingxuan slammed his hand on the table excitedly, pointing to the documents on the screen. "This is evidence of Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao's tax evasion and money laundering through charities over the years! The amount is huge, enough to put them in jail for life!"

I gasped. I never imagined that Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao, who appeared so glamorous on the surface, were actually doing such dirty things behind the scenes.

Anger and disgust surged in my chest, and I secretly vowed that I would never let them get away with it!

At the same time, Gu Yichen finished his call. He put away his phone, a cold glint in his eyes. "I have contacted the media. They will expose Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao's crimes to the public as soon as possible."

At the same time, I also informed my friends in the business community that they would unite to boycott Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao's company, making sure they completely lose their foothold!

Hearing this, my heart finally settled. I believe that good will prevail over evil, and justice will ultimately triumph over wickedness.

And my love with Gu Yichen will become even more unbreakable after weathering this storm.

I took a deep breath, suppressing the surging emotions within me, and turned to look at Gu Yichen.

He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, his slender figure stretched exceptionally long by the setting sun, his profile sharp and cold, like an insurmountable mountain.

"Yichen..." I called softly. He turned around, his deep eyes reflecting my image, as unfathomable as the starry sky.

He walked over to me, took my hand, and the warm touch made me feel much more at ease.

"Don't worry, we'll make them pay the price."

His tone was firm, as if he were making a promise to me, or as if he were making a vow to himself.

As Lu Mingxuan and Gu Yichen took their actions, public opinion began to shift.

The overwhelming media coverage exposed the true colors of Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao, and their carefully constructed facade collapsed instantly, turning them into pariahs.

As I watched Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao's flustered expressions at the press conference, a surge of satisfaction welled up inside me.

They were once so high and mighty, so arrogant, but now they've fallen to such a state—it's truly gratifying!

However, I was not blinded by victory; I knew this was only the first step.

Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao will not sit idly by and wait for their fate; they will do everything they can to exonerate themselves.

Sure enough, just before being taken away by the police, Du Yue suddenly broke free from the officers' control, pointed at me, and shouted hoarsely, "Fu Yan, you planned all of this, didn't you? You just wanted to get revenge on me, to get revenge on me for taking away your Gu Yichen!"

Faced with her accusations, I remained calm and composed, without the slightest panic. Because I knew that the innocent would be proven innocent, and justice would prevail.

Du Yue's words will only make her more embarrassed and cause her to lose more public support.

Ultimately, Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao were formally arrested on suspicion of multiple crimes, and they will face severe legal punishment.

As the dust settled, I stood beside Gu Yichen, gazing at the darkening sky outside the window, my heart filled with mixed emotions.

The struggle is finally over, but the wounds it left behind will take a long time to heal.

Gu Yichen put his arm around my shoulder and said gently, "We don't have to deal with them anymore. From now on, it'll just be you, me, and the adorable baby."

I nodded, a warm feeling welling up inside me. Yes, after the storm, we can finally see our rainbow.

We moved away from that painful place with our little one, chose a quiet and cozy neighborhood, and started a new life.

Every morning, I am awakened by Gu Yichen's gentle kiss and my baby's sweet, childlike voice saying "Good morning, Mommy."

We make breakfast together, take the kids to kindergarten together, and take walks together in the sunset. Life is simple but happy.

I was admitted to my dream university for my doctoral studies, Gu Yichen's career is booming, and our little one is becoming more and more sensible and adorable. Everything is moving in a positive direction.

I thought that the three of us would continue to be happy like this forever.

However, fate always seems to like to play tricks on us.

It was a sunny afternoon, and Gu Yichen and I were playing with our little one in the park.

Suddenly, a deep male voice sounded behind me: "Long time no see, Yan Yan."

I froze. Even after all these years, I still remember that voice clearly.

I slowly turned around, and a tall figure stood in front of me. He had an enigmatic smile on his face, and his deep eyes were like a dark, ancient well, making it impossible to see through his thoughts.

"You are..." I said in a trembling voice, looking at the man in front of me in disbelief.

Gu Yichen noticed my unusual behavior, shielded me and the child behind him, and asked warily, "Who are you?"

The man ignored Gu Yichen, staring intently at me, and said, word by word, "Don't you remember me? I am..."
