Chapter 402 Counterattack and Bait
Lin Yun's car accident plan failed, but that didn't mean she would give up. On the contrary, she knew better than anyone that failure meant she had to speed things up.
Otherwise, she wouldn't even have a chance to turn things around.
……
Undercurrent
The next day, Lin Yun stood in front of the French windows, looking at the sunrise outside, her eyes filled with coldness.
"Lin Chuyue, do you really think this is the end?" she muttered to herself, a cold smile playing on her lips.
The man behind her slowly stepped forward, his tone indifferent: "You've already lost."
"Lose?" Lin Yun raised an eyebrow and turned to look at the person. "As long as I haven't fallen, no one can say I've lost."
The man narrowed his eyes, stared at her for a few seconds, and then suddenly chuckled: "It seems you really intend to fight to the bitter end."
Lin Yun gave a soft hum, casually picked up a wine glass from the table and gently swirled it. The red liquid rippled on the glass, as alluring as blood.
"If we can't win, then we'll destroy her."
Her voice was soft, yet it concealed a chilling murderous intent.
The man was silent for a few seconds, then finally stopped trying to dissuade him and slowly asked, "What do you need me to do?"
Lin Yun slowly put down her wine glass, her eyes deep and unfathomable: "I'll ruin her reputation."
……
Gu Yanchuan's warning
Meanwhile, Lin Chuyue and Li Zhanchuan have begun investigating the mastermind behind the car accident.
Although there is no direct evidence pointing to Lin Yun, she is the prime suspect.
“She can’t sit still anymore.” Gu Yanchuan put down the documents in his hand, his tone slightly cold.
Lin Chuyue looked up at him: "What are your thoughts?"
Gu Yanchuan remained calm, tapping his fingers lightly on the table: "Since she has started to disregard the consequences, it means that she is almost at her wit's end."
"Then force her to completely lose control," Li Zhanchuan said calmly.
Lin Chuyue frowned slightly: "You mean..."
Li Zhanchuan's lips curled slightly, his eyes revealing a coldness: "Lure her into making a move, then eliminate her completely."
……
Bait
That afternoon, a bombshell piece of news quietly circulated within high society circles—
"Lin Chuyue will break off her engagement with Gu Yanchuan and instead get engaged to Li Zhanchuan."
This news immediately caused a huge uproar in the industry.
Lin Chuyue was already attracting attention for inheriting the family business, and now she is involved with two major business giants, causing a stir in the entire elite circle.
"What's going on? Lin Chuyue is going to marry Li Zhanchuan?"
"Isn't she engaged to Gu Yanchuan? Is she going to completely break off relations this time?"
"Interesting, let's see how Lin Yun responds."
When the news reached Lin Yun's ears, she stood up abruptly, her face instantly turning extremely gloomy!
"Impossible!" she growled through gritted teeth, her eyes filled with hatred.
She waited so long just to replace Lin Chuyue and become Gu Yanchuan's fiancée! But now, not only has Lin Chuyue not been abandoned by Gu Yanchuan, but she's gone even further and is directly tied to Li Zhanchuan?!
"What tricks is she playing?" Lin Yun asked coldly, her eyes filled with hostility.
The man beside her said calmly, "This is clearly forcing you to take action."
"Hmph, does she think I'd fall for that?" Lin Yun sneered.
The man didn't speak, he just looked at her quietly.
A few seconds later, Lin Yun clenched her fists, her eyes growing increasingly fierce: "Whether it's a trap or not, this time, I won't let her recover!"
……
Storm is coming
That evening, an anonymous tip went viral on social media.
[Lin Chuyue was abandoned by her family years ago, and only managed to turn her life around through despicable means, hiding a shocking secret!]
This revelation did not name names, but everyone could see that it was aimed directly at Lin Chuyue.
Immediately afterwards, an "anonymous recording" was released. The content was vague, but it implied that Lin Chuyue had entered the family business through improper connections.
The public opinion was immediately in an uproar.
"Really? Didn't Lin Chuyue rely on herself?"
"She was indeed suppressed by the Lin family in the past, is that true?"
"Li Zhanchuan is so outstanding, how could he like her?"
Within just a few hours, Lin Chuyue's social media platforms were flooded with countless rumors.
Lin Yun looked at the online discussions and a slight smile appeared on her lips.
"This is just the beginning," she murmured, a ruthless glint in her eyes.
……
Jedi strikes back
However, just as this war of words was escalating, Li Zhanchuan directly held a press conference.
He stood under the spotlight, his tone cold and firm: "Someone is deliberately spreading rumors in an attempt to smear Lin Chuyue. I have already reported it to the police."
A single sentence silenced the rumor-mongers!
At the same time, Gu Yanchuan also issued a statement on the company's official website, stating that Lin Chuyue "has full inheritance rights and did not use any improper means."
Suddenly, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.
What caught Lin Yun even more off guard was—
The following day, the police issued a statement saying that they had identified the anonymous whistleblower and would pursue legal action in accordance with the law after the investigation was completed.
Lin Yun froze on the spot, her face turning deathly pale!
"How could it be so fast..." she murmured softly, her fingers gripping the edge of the table tightly until her knuckles turned white.
She had planned everything flawlessly, so why was she countered so quickly?!
Just then, her phone rang. It was the man who had been helping her with the planning.
The voice on the other end of the phone was deep and cold: "Lin Yun, we've been set up."
Lin Yun's heart sank, and her hand gripping the phone trembled slightly: "What do you mean?"
“The police are watching us,” the man said slowly. “We must leave as soon as possible.”
Lin Yun's face turned deathly pale instantly, and a look of terror flashed in her eyes.
"This is impossible..." she whispered, her voice trembling slightly.
She never imagined that everything she had meticulously planned would completely collapse in just a few days!
……
Deadly counterattack
At this moment, Lin Chuyue stood in her office, looking at the bright lights outside the window, a cold smile slowly curling at the corner of her lips.
"This is just the beginning, Lin Yun," she muttered to herself, her eyes as cold as knives.
Li Zhanchuan walked to her side and said softly, "How do you want to end this?"
Lin Chuyue softly uttered a single word—
"Destroy her."
This time, she will not give Lin Yun any chance to turn things around!
