The Fake Husband of the Beautiful CEO

late at night.

Inside a private room at a private restaurant.

There were no delicacies on the table, just some simple yet delicious home-style dishes.

"Have you finished eating?"

"Want to go out for some fresh air?"

Chen Dong chuckled as he saw Gu Li put down her chopsticks.

During the meal, the two tacitly avoided discussing the Lin Group.

Now that we've finished eating, we can digest our food and also chat about the mole within the Lin family.

"Um!"

Gu Li responded and then stood up.

The two left the private room and came to the riverside promenade.

Tonight, she wore a black dress that revealed her delicate collarbone and snow-white neck.

The skirt was slit up to her upper thigh, and as she walked slowly, her long, fair legs were faintly visible.

Chen Dong was stunned for a moment, his heart inexplicably racing.

"Is it pretty?"

Gu Li's slightly teasing voice came over, making him touch his nose a little embarrassed.

He then nodded seriously.

"nice!"

"Sexy and alluring."

A smile appeared on Gu Li's lips.

For some reason, she enjoyed being praised by Chen Dong.

To be honest, the way other men looked at him was either greedy or purely lustful.

This guy is different; he clearly wants it, but he doesn't dare to.

But it always manages to surprise you at crucial moments.

"Haven't you seen enough?"

These words immediately silenced Chen Dong.

He has seen much more than just that.

"Ahem!"

"Alright, well... let's talk about the Lin family instead."

"You said there's a mole in the Lin family, who is it?"

"Those veterans?"

Chen Dong coughed lightly and quickly changed the subject.

As it stands, Lin Tiannan can't think of anyone else who could hide in the Lin family for so long without being discovered by Lin Tiannan, except for those few elders.

After all, those old guys were there to build the empire alongside Old Master Lin.

Whether it's seniority, ability, or the shares they hold.

These are all people who, apart from Lin Tiannan, have influence within the Lin Group.

"You are very smart."

"Those old guys do indeed have rebellious intentions."

"However, the biggest mole is Wang Haiming."

"You should have seen it by now."

Gu Li wasn't surprised by Chen Dong's guess.

This guy has the guts to kill people, so dealing with a few traitors would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?

"I have indeed witnessed it."

"But I don't understand what benefit these old guys get from ruining the Lin family?"

Chen Dong was somewhat puzzled.

At today's company meeting, the first person to stand up and object was Wang Haiming.

He thought he had taken a bite out of his business, but he didn't expect that what he wanted wasn't the sales department, but to bring down the Lin family.

This doesn't do them any good, does it?

With the Lin family gone, they lost a cash cow.

Besides, they'll be retiring in a few years, so why bother doing this?

Upon hearing this, Gu Li, who was walking ahead, stopped and turned to look at him.

"Is it possible that they never intended to bring down the Lin family at all, but were simply after their shares?"

These words caught Chen Dong off guard for a moment.

Several seconds later, he came to his senses and looked at Gu Li.

"So you mean they just want the Lin family's shares?"

"So, you became a mole just to oust Lin Tiannan, right?"

Gu Li smiled, which was taken as tacit agreement.

Chen Dong then realized, so that's how it is.

That makes things much easier!

At this moment, Gu Li took out a USB flash drive from her bag and handed it to Chen Dong.

"These contain documents detailing their embezzlement, bribery, and the unauthorized sale of some confidential information about the Lin family over the past few years."

"If you ever rise to power, this is your trump card."

"They won't dare to act rashly because they have something on you."

Chen Dong looked at the USB drive that was handed to him, took it, and put it in his pocket.

This thing isn't very useful right now.

As long as those old guys haven't reached the point of mutual destruction, there's no need for it yet.

If they ever really want to bring Lin Tiannan down, this thing could come in very handy.

"OK."

Just as the two were talking, under the bright streetlights...

Four men wearing masks and jackets walked briskly from the other side of the corridor.

The other men all had their hands in their pockets and looked hurried.

The two people on the very edge kept glancing around, as if checking to make sure there were no other people around.

Chen Dong looked at the group of people, his brows furrowing slightly.

These guys don't look like good people.

Moreover, there was a ruthless glint in their eyes.

Just as the four opponents were only two meters away from Chen Dong and Gu Li, they quickened their pace again.

Almost in the blink of an eye, they rushed towards Chen Dong.

At that moment, he took his hand out of his pocket.

However, they now held a gleaming dagger in their hands.

"Grass!"

Chen Dong's expression changed, and he grabbed Gu Li and turned to run away.

But... Gu Li wasn't wearing flat shoes, so she couldn't run fast at all.

Before they could take two steps, the other side was already closing in.

Left with no other option, Chen Dong released Gu Li's hand and threw a punch at her.

But these people were clearly not ordinary people. They easily dodged Chen Dong's counterattack with a simple sidestep.

Immediately, a sharp dagger stabbed fiercely towards Chen Dong's chest.

Chen Dong twisted his foot sharply, forcefully dodging the attack.

But he was still cut by the dagger, and blood flowed out.

"That was close!"

Chen Dong's face was pale, and he was sweating profusely.

If that stab lands, he'll probably be reincarnated in ten minutes at most.

These guys were after him, they wanted to kill him.

Before he could react, the four of them surrounded him.

Without giving him a chance to catch his breath, she drew her dagger and stabbed him.

Two fists can't beat four hands, let alone eight hands.

"Damn it!"

Chen Dong's eyes immediately turned red.

In a split second, he had no choice but to take a knife and break out of the encirclement.

"puff!"

Chen Dong felt a chill run down his ribs.

He knew without even looking that the knife had definitely penetrated.

The four men who came to kill him didn't expect him to be so decisive, taking the blow head-on.

While they were still stunned, Chen Dong gathered all his strength into his right fist.

He punched the person closest to him in the chest.

"Bang!"

A dull sound instantly rang in their ears.

The man who was punched by him widened his eyes instantly.

His chest even caved in!

Fresh blood kept flowing from his mouth as if it were free.

Immediately afterwards, his body fell straight backward.

This scene made Gu Li, who was standing to the side, widen her eyes in astonishment.

His face was filled with shock and confusion!

Is this... really a power that a normal person could possess?

"Third brother!"

Watching his own brother get killed with a single punch, Scarface, the leader, was completely enraged.

He immediately attacked Chen Dong, his dagger aimed at Chen Dong's neck, ready to slash him.

The other two, also filled with rage, charged forward with daggers in hand.

"We're doomed!"

"This time I'm really going to die."

Chen Dong was well aware of the current situation; he could only dodge the attacks of two people at most.

But he couldn't avoid the third person.

The sharp pain in his waist, coupled with blood loss, had left him looking rather pale.

Just as their lives hung by a thread, a sharp screech of brakes came from behind...
