The Fake Husband of the Beautiful CEO

Chapter 23 Gu Li's Mysterious Background

After having dinner with Gu Li at a Western restaurant by the river, Chen Dong rode his electric scooter home.

It wasn't that he didn't want Gu Li to take him home; it was just a habit.

After all, I used to deliver food on my electric scooter every day, and that felt much more comfortable than driving a car.

But what surprised Chen Dong the most was Gu Li's actions after dealing with Lin Dong; she neither called the police nor ran away.

Instead, they accidentally obtained a special website, spent millions, and hired specialists to handle it on-site.

As for what the website is specifically for, Gu Li said she didn't know either.

I only found out about it out of curiosity, from a friend.

But she hadn't been in contact with that friend for a long time.

It was thanks to this website that Gu Li had time to find a substitute.

After returning to the villa.

Mr. and Mrs. Lin Tiannan were not home; they must have gone out for a walk.

Chen Dong returned to his room, sat down at his computer, and turned it on.

He planned to upload the recording of his previous conversation with Wu Tian to his cloud drive first.

After all, if you accidentally lose it, at least you have a backup.

But when he touched his pockets, they were empty.

"Where's my voice recorder?"

Chen Dong's face visibly showed signs of panic.

He searched all his pockets but couldn't find the voice recorder he had put in them.

He put a lot of thought into this conversation.

After finally managing to extract useful information from the other party, the recording pen was unexpectedly lost at that moment.

"Grass!"

Even though Chen Dong has a good temper, he couldn't help but curse at this moment. He sat in the chair with a sullen face, frantically trying to recall where he had dropped his recording pen.

at the same time.

Gu Li had just driven back to her small villa where she lived alone.

As soon as I parked the car and was about to get out, I saw something that looked like a black pen lying on the passenger seat.

"What is this?"

A hint of doubt flashed in her eyes, then she picked it up and took a look.

"This is……"

"A voice recorder?"

A look of shock flashed in her eyes.

She has used this before, but only very rarely.

But she didn't bring that thing with her this time.

Is it Chen Dong's?

Gu Li frowned, subconsciously assuming that Chen Dong had used this device to record their conversation.

For example... the fact that she had told Chen Dong before that she had accidentally killed the young master of the Lin family.

With a mix of trepidation and excitement, I pressed play.

But the recording pen picked up the voices of two men.

One of them was Chen Dong; he could tell from his voice.

The other one, he didn't know!

After listening to it once, Gu Li put the recorder into her pocket with a sullen face.

Judging from the content of the recording, Chen Dong seems to be investigating news about forced demolitions in the development zone that resulted in deaths.

Moreover, they must have already found some clues, otherwise they wouldn't have been carrying a recording pen.

She thought for a moment, then took out her phone and made a call.

"Feed?"

"Help me investigate the demolition of the development zone back then, the more detailed the better, even if someone deliberately concealed something, we need to find out."

After a brief exchange, Gu Li put down her phone.

I just sat down in the living room, intending to rest for two minutes before taking a shower and going to bed.

But at that moment, her phone rang.

She picked it up and saw that it was a call from Chen Dong.

"Feed?"

"It hasn't been that long since we last met, and you already miss me?"

Gu Li chuckled lightly, her tone slightly teasing.

"Did I leave something in your car?"

Do you have time now? Could you help me look for it?

Please!

Chen Dong sounded very anxious on the other end of the phone.

For him, the voice recorder was the only thing he could use to clear his parents' names.

If it's gone, it will be very difficult to find evidence again.

Hearing Chen Dong's tone, Gu Li also stopped joking.

"Is it that black voice recorder?"

She hadn't expected that the recording pen would be so important to Chen Dong.

He even went so far as to beg her, which shows how important the recording pen was to Chen Dong.

Upon hearing this, Chen Dong on the other end of the phone fell silent.

After a moment, he replied, "You knew everything?"

"I'm not stupid!"

"But can you tell me why you're investigating this?"

Gu Li was genuinely surprised that Chen Dong wanted to investigate the forced demolition that resulted in deaths.

However, judging from the contents of the recording, it should be related to him.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be so concerned.

"Haven't you guessed it yet?"

"The couple who died because of the forced demolition were my parents."

Chen Dong's tone was unusually low at this moment.

What?

When Gu Li heard these words, her expression froze.

She never imagined that the couple who died because of the forced demolition were actually Chen Dong's biological parents.

No wonder Chen Dong asked me if I had any information about Chengnan Construction Company; it turns out that was the reason.

"I'm sorry, I... I didn't mean to."

Gu Li's tone carried a hint of guilt.

If I had known it was because of this, I should have asked him a few more questions when he asked.

Perhaps I can be of help.

However, it doesn't seem too late now.

"It's alright, I'm relieved now that you have the recording pen."

"If possible, please send a copy to my phone."

"After I've taken care of things for you, this will be my proof that I can beat them."

With the voice recorder in Gu Li's hands, Chen Dong wasn't worried about losing it.

Keeping it in your possession could lead to unnecessary trouble if someone discovers it.

"good!"

"If you need my help, please let me know."

Gu Li decided that if Chen Dong needed help, she wouldn't mind using her connections to assist him.

"That's all for now. Get some rest, and just remember to send me a backup."

After hanging up the phone.

Gu Li leaned back on the sofa, her brows furrowed, and looked at the recorder in her hand, her eyes turning somewhat cold.

"Southern City Construction Company, Liu's Group!"

"I didn't originally plan to deal with you so soon, but it seems the plan needs to be moved up."

She muttered a couple of sentences to herself.

But soon, the results of the investigation that had just been initiated came in.

I also received detailed information about the demolition in the development zone on my phone.

After opening the document and reading it carefully, Gu Li's expression grew increasingly grim.

In the end, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"What a fine Liu Group, what a fine Tianlong Security Company."

"The methods used are truly despicable!"

"Compared to you, the scandals of other companies are nothing!"

Since taking over the Gu Group, she believes she has experienced quite a few major events.

But compared to the information in my hand, it's worlds apart.

Each and every one of these acts is a serious crime that could get the Liu Group's leadership shot.

She believed that if Chen Dong saw this information, he might do something foolish.

After calming herself down, Gu Li took out her phone and sent a text message:

A thorough investigation is needed!

I want to know all the dirt on the Liu Group.
