The CEO is domineering, the devil Boss is addicted to pampering

Chapter 1365 Yun Rui's loyalty: Hand over everything within 3 days

The lights in the corridor were still bright, but they couldn't illuminate her cold mood at the moment. She walked quickly to the elevator, her fingers trembling with nervousness. Only when she entered the elevator and saw her pale face in the mirror did she dare to breathe deeply.

As the elevator descended, Su Xingya pulled a miniature recorder from her purse and pressed the stop button. The recorder clearly recorded her conversation with Shen Chengyu. Su Xingya clenched her fist tightly, letting the metal rub against her palm until it hurt...

As soon as he walked out of the hotel door, Lin Junze came up to him and said, "Boss Su, are you okay? Why do you look so bad?"

Su Xingya shook her head, her voice weary. "I'm fine. Shen Chengyu asked me to hand over everything in the Gu family within three days, or he would take action against Yunqian, Yunxi, and the others."

She leaned against the car door, her legs feeling a little weak. The composure she had maintained in the room just now collapsed in an instant, and the red bloodshot in her eyes was clearly visible.

The continuous running around for several days and the recent mental tension made her almost exhausted. She didn't even have the strength to raise her hand to fix her hair.

Lin Junze quickly opened the car door and helped her into the passenger seat: "Rest for a while, I'll take you back to the apartment. We'll discuss Shen Chengyu's matter later."

The car slowly started. Su Xingya closed her eyes and leaned back in her chair, her mind replaying Shen Chengyu's frivolous appearance and threatening words. He was certain that she would compromise, that no one in the Gu family could defeat him. This attitude of control was like a thorn in her heart.

"What chips does Shen Chengyu have in his hand?" Su Xingya suddenly spoke in a hoarse voice. "He dares to be so arrogant, so Zhang Hao must be more than just a card."

Lin Junze tightened his grip on the steering wheel. "We've discovered that Xingtu Technology has been frequently conducting financial transactions with several overseas investment institutions, and the Nightingale Organization is vaguely associated with these institutions. Additionally, Shen Chengyu has a secret laboratory in London, the exact location of which has yet to be discovered, but it's likely he's conducting research related to the Nightingale Project."

Su Xingya nodded silently, her fingers unconsciously rubbing the seat. Just then, the car passed an intersection, and the light turned red. She instinctively glanced out the window, her eyes suddenly drawn to a figure on the sidewalk—a thin figure in a gray windbreaker, walking briskly with their head lowered. Their profile, faintly visible under the streetlight, looked a great deal like the long-missing Lin Xu.

"Wait!" Su Xingya sat up straight, her voice filled with anxiety, "Go back! That person just now..."

Lin Junze was stunned for a moment, and quickly turned around to ensure it was safe. But when the car returned to the intersection, the figure had already disappeared in the crowd, leaving only the endless stream of pedestrians and vehicles.

"Gone..." Su Xingya's voice was a little lost and dazed.

Was she hallucinating from exhaustion, or was Lin Xu really in London? If the latter, why was he here? Was it a coincidence, or was it related to Shen Chengyu?

"Mr. Su, you said that person just now looked like Lin Xu?" Lin Junze's tone was full of surprise.

"I'm not sure, but their profile looks very similar." Su Xingya leaned back in her chair and rubbed her swollen temples. "Everything that happened was caused by him. When he disappeared, everyone related to him suffered misfortune. According to the development of the plot, he will be back in good condition soon, right?"

This idea was like a seed, quickly taking root and sprouting in her heart. Since some things could not be done by conventional means, then...

She thought of the hacker resources in Gu Yunqian's hands, those technical experts hidden in the dark web, who had helped the Gu family resolve crises many times;

He also thought of the mercenary team that Gu Mingcheng had trained in his early years. Although most of them had retired, they still kept in touch and had a unique advantage in obtaining intelligence and carrying out secret missions.

"I have an idea." Su Xingya suddenly spoke, her eyes becoming firm again. "Contact Gu Yunqian's dark web team immediately and ask them to investigate what Shen is up to. Also, check the mercenary group that Dad used to be a part of and see if they can help us find the person we're looking for."

Lin Junze's eyes lit up and dimmed: "We can try! However, the funds we have..."

"From what I hear, those hackers have long been dissatisfied with GStar. How about using our humanity?" Su Xingya added, "Also, we need to ensure that the two groups' actions don't interfere with each other. The dark web team will be responsible for online tracking, while the mercenary team will be responsible for offline investigation. Finally, we will summarize the information and formulate the next plan."

When the car returned to the apartment building, Su Xingya didn't get out immediately. Instead, she took out her phone and called Song Yuanzhe. "Uncle Song, I need you to do two things for me. First, help me investigate Shen Chengyu's recent disputes. Second, closely monitor the progress of the domestic police's pursuit of Zhang Hao. Let me know immediately if you have any news."

After hanging up the phone, Su Xingya took a deep breath and pushed open the car door. Her previous fatigue had long since vanished, replaced by a calm and decisive demeanor, akin to Gu Mingcheng's commanding presence in the business world, and possessing Gu Yunqian's composure in the face of danger...

When the high heels stepped on the ground, the soreness in the legs was so real, and the swelling pain in the temples was like a thin needle, repeatedly pricking the nerves - I hadn't slept for more than 40 hours, and my body had already issued an overload alarm. I was only able to hold on by relying on the belief that "I can't fall down".

Returning to the apartment, Su Xingya went straight to the study. The moment the computer screen lit up, she rubbed her red eyes, her fingertips hovered over the keyboard for a moment, and finally clicked on Gu Yunqian's personal account login interface.

"Password..." Su Xingya muttered to herself and entered several passwords that Gu Yunqian often used - their wedding anniversary, their son's birthday, and...

But every time she clicked "Login", a prompt box with "Wrong Password" would pop up on the screen. The red font was like a glaring scar, shattering her hopes time and time again.

She leaned back in her chair, her fingers tapping unconsciously on the table. Gu Yunqian's account security level was extremely high. In addition to the password, another dynamic code verification was required.

The dynamic verification code would be sent to his personal mobile phone, but that phone was still in a temporary storage cabinet in the London detention center; fingerprint recognition was out of the question, and she didn't even have the chance to get close to Gu Yunqian.

"What should I do..." Su Xingya closed her eyes, and a fragment of her time with Gu Yunqian flashed through her mind - once he logged into this account in the study, and she accidentally caught a glimpse of where his fingers paused on the keyboard when he entered the password, as if...

She suddenly opened her eyes and tried to enter the coordinates of "Cambridge, River Cam". The moment she pressed the enter key, her heart almost jumped out of her chest.

The screen loaded for a few seconds, and finally, a "Verification Failed" message popped up. Su Xingya's shoulders instantly slumped, and a feeling of powerlessness washed over her.

She knew Gu Yunqian's habits clearly and remembered all the details related to him, but she still couldn't log into his account. This feeling of being so close yet out of reach made her more anxious than facing the threat from Shen Chengyu.

The sky outside the window gradually brightened, and the sunlight shone through the gaps in the curtains onto the keyboard, reflecting the red bloodshot in her eyes.

Su Xingya glanced at the time in the lower right corner of the computer. It was already seven o'clock in the morning. There were less than two days left before the three-day deadline given by Shen Chengyu.

She stood up, walked to the window, and drew back the curtains. London was quiet in the early morning, with only a few pedestrians on the streets and the Thames shimmering in the distance.

Su Xingya took a deep breath of the morning air, trying to calm herself down, but her mind kept flashing through Gu Yunqian's anxious eyes in the detention center, Gu Mingcheng and Ye Muxue hanging on to their last breath in the ICU, and Gu Yunqian and Gu Yunxi's expectant eyes in the detention room.

These images were like a mountain, weighing her down so hard that she could hardly breathe.
