Chapter 466 Lost in the Chess Game
Lin Chuyue's decision
In the Cloud Top Club, the dim yellow light reflected Lin Chuyue's slightly cool expression.
Her slender fingers tapped lightly on the table, and the rich aroma of red wine filled the air.
Gu Yanchuan's gaze remained calmly fixed on her, awaiting her response.
After a long silence, Lin Chuyue finally raised her eyes and said calmly, "Gu Yanchuan, you're helping me not because you've had a change of heart, but because you want to disrupt your uncle's plans in China."
Gu Yanchuan chuckled softly, his voice low and deep: "Smart."
“But you must understand—” Lin Chuyue gently picked up her wine glass, swirling it slightly, a hint of coldness in her eyes, “Our positions are only temporarily aligned. Once the Shen family falls, will you become the next enemy?”
Gu Yanchuan slowly approached, smiling as he looked at her: "Chuyue, cooperation is a very delicate thing—its foundation is always interests. You want to deal with the Shen family, and I want to ruin my uncle's plans. We each get what we need, and that's more reliable than anything else."
Lin Chuyue remained silent for a moment, then smiled gently.
"Okay, I agree."
She slowly reached out and gently shook hands with Gu Yanchuan.
However, she knew that a deeper storm was inevitably brewing behind this collaboration...

Li Zhanchuan's test
That evening, after leaving the club and returning to the villa, Lin Chuyue was slightly taken aback when she saw the figure in the living room.
The man stood by the window, wearing a black shirt. He was tall and slender, and his cold profile looked particularly sharp in the night.
Li Zhanchuan...
Why is he here?
Just as Lin Chuyue was about to speak, the man slowly turned around, his sharp gaze locking onto her: "Where did you go?"
His voice was low and emotionless.
Lin Chuyue paused for a moment, then chuckled, "Aren't you being a bit too nosy?"
Li Zhanchuan's gaze turned slightly cold as he slowly approached, his long, slender fingers pinching her chin with a slight pressure: "You met with Gu Yanchuan?"
Lin Chuyue's eyes darkened, then she smiled and said, "It seems you've been keeping an eye on me all this time."
Li Zhanchuan's fingers tightened for a moment, his tone icy: "You agreed to cooperate with him?"
Lin Chuyue raised an eyebrow, without denying it.
“Yes,” she said softly, “I do need his help.”
Li Zhanchuan's gaze instantly darkened, his fingertips tightened slightly, and a dangerous aura emanated from his dark eyes.
“Lin Chuyue…” His voice was low and dangerous, “Do you know what kind of person he is?”
Lin Chuyue raised her head and looked directly at him: "Then tell me, what kind of person is he?"
Li Zhanchuan narrowed his eyes, slowly leaned down, his thin lips almost touching her ear, his voice cold and chilling: "He wouldn't help you for no reason. What he wants is far more than you can imagine."
Lin Chuyue's lips curled slightly, her tone indifferent: "Is that so? And what about you? What do you want?"
Li Zhanchuan's eyes changed slightly. After a few seconds of silence, he said in a low voice, "You."
Lin Chuyue was slightly taken aback, then smiled gently: "Li Zhanchuan, your possessiveness is truly frightening."
Li Zhanchuan didn't speak, he just looked at her with a deep, unfathomable gaze.
An oppressive atmosphere permeated the air.
Lin Chuyue withdrew her gaze and said softly, "No matter what, I will not change my decision."
She knew that Gu Yanchuan was definitely not a kind person, but she had no way out.
She must use every available resource to drag the Shen family into the abyss!
Li Zhanchuan stared at her coldly for a few seconds before finally releasing her, his voice low and dangerous: "I hope you won't regret this."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left, his figure disappearing into the night.
Lin Chuyue stood still, a complex look flashing in her eyes.
She sighed softly.
Li Zhanchuan... are you really going to stand idly by?
?
Shen Qingyuan's counterattack!
The next day, financial news exploded again!
[Shocking! Lin's Group reported for business irregularities; regulatory authorities launch investigation!]
Lin's stock price plummeted, dampening market confidence!
The Lin family is under investigation!
Lin Chuyue stared coldly at the news, her fingers tightening.
Shen Qingyuan was indeed unwilling to accept this!
“Jiang Ke!” she said in a deep voice.
Jiang Ke immediately entered, her face grim: "Miss Lin, we just received news that the Shen family is secretly manipulating things, reporting us for suspected business irregularities."
Lin Chuyue narrowed her eyes, a cold smile appearing on her lips.
"Shen Qingyuan... he's quick."
"Ms. Lin, what do we do now?" Jiang Ke asked urgently. "If the investigation continues, our stock price will continue to fall!"
Lin Chuyue tapped her fingertips lightly on the table, a cold glint in her eyes: "Since he wants to play, then I'll play along with him."
She took out her phone and dialed a number: "Arrange a press conference. Since Shen Qingyuan dared to make a move, I'll let him taste the bitterness of public opinion backlash!"
Jiang Ke's eyes lit up, and she immediately nodded: "I'll arrange it right away!"
This business war has finally reached its climax!
?
Press conference, a tit-for-tat exchange!
That afternoon, the Lin Group held an emergency press conference.
Lin Chuyue, dressed in a black suit, walked steadily onto the stage.
Her gaze was calm, and her tone was firm: "Dear friends in the media, I would like to clarify the false rumors circulating in the market."
"The Lin Group has never engaged in any illegal or irregular operations, and we will fully cooperate with the regulatory authorities' investigation."
“But—” she paused, her sharp gaze sweeping across the camera, “I suspect that this report against the Lin family is being maliciously manipulated behind the scenes.”
The scene was in an uproar!
"Mr. Lin, do you mean there's someone else behind this investigation?" the reporter immediately pressed.
Lin Chuyue smiled slightly and said calmly, "Whether someone is manipulating things or not, I think the regulatory authorities will give us a fair answer."
This statement has completely targeted the Shen family!
Sure enough, the next day, Shen's Group's stock price was also affected!
When Shen Qingyuan saw this news, his face turned extremely gloomy!
"Lin Chuyue..." he gritted his teeth, his eyes icy cold, "You think you can win against me with such petty tricks?"
He abruptly picked up the phone and said coldly, "Contact H.R. and tell them to invest more. I want to completely swallow up the Lin family!"
Meanwhile, Gu Yanchuan stood quietly atop the high-rise building, gazing at the epicenter of the financial storm, a meaningful smile slowly curving his lips.
The game of chess has officially begun.
