Su Ting, focusing intently on his computer, announced, “Gu Dai, I’ve found out.

The person behind Wang Fu and Song Shan is Zhou Lin.”

“Zhou Lin?” Gu Dai echoed.

Su Ting nodded, “Yes, but it seems Zhou Lin is also acting under someone else’s orders. I haven’t discovered who’s behind him yet.”

Gu Dai furrowed her brows, “Let me check.”

Su Ting handed the computer to Gu Dai.

Her gaze fixed on the screen, Gu Dai’s fingers tapped away at the keyboard, lines of code swiftly flashing before her eyes.

She noted a triangular symbol on the display, a flicker of recognition in her eyes.

“What is it, Gu Dai?” Su Ting inquired.

Gu Dai spoke gravely, “This is the emblem of Organization X.” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Su Ting, taken aback, asked, “Organization X?”

Gu Dai nodded, “I’ve only heard of this organization before. The people in Organization X have always been unconventional, responsible for many unconscionable deeds.”

As she spoke, memories of the organization’s actions passed through her mind, her eyes reflecting disgust.

Su Ting frowned slightly, “Had I known Wang Fu was backed by such an organization, I wouldn’t have terminated the contract with him but made him pay compensation instead.”

Gu Dai offered a light laugh, “Since the decision has been made, there’s no use dwelling on it with regret.”

Her curiosity piqued as to why Organization X would target Su Corporation and manipulate other companies against it.

From her investigation, she learned that Song Shan and Wang Fu received only minor projects from Zhou Lin, significantly inferior to Su Ting’s project. Zhou Lin’s actions surely affected Zhou Corporation’s credibility, leaving her puzzled about their motives.

Su Ting, pondering this, speculated, “Could Organization X be aiming to have our companies compete against each other, reaping the benefits in the end?”

Gu Dai, agreeing with his guess, nodded, “It’s possible.”

Thinking along these lines, she resumed her search on the computer, only to find increased security measures from the organization, making infiltration more challenging.

Unable to proceed, Gu Dai closed the laptop, planning to continue her investigation later.

Unbeknownst to her, a flash of blue light crossed the screen as she did so.

“I can’t find anything specific for now,” she sighed.

Su Ting reassured her softly, “It’s alright if we can’t find anything on Organization X. For now, I can start by dealing with Zhou Lin’s company.”

Realizing Gu Dai was still beside him, he quickly added, “Gu Dai, I won’t be too harsh, I…”

Gu Dai, smiling warmly, stepped forward to embrace him, “Even if you have to be harsh, it’s alright. Zhou Lin initiated this, and you can’t always be lenient.”

Su Ting, momentarily surprised, asked, “Gu Dai, wouldn’t you be afraid of me then?”

Shaking her head, Gu Dai assured, “There’s a limit to kindness, and protecting oneself is crucial. Otherwise, I’d be worried.”

Su Ting’s eyes brightened, “Alright, I’ll make sure to protect myself.”

After returning to her room, Gu Dai called Chu Min.

Chu Min answered immediately, excitedly saying, “Boss, you finally contacted me. I thought you’d forgotten us after starting your relationship with Su Ting.”

After his jest, he took a moment to silently mourn for his brother.

Clearly his brother also harbored feelings for Gu Dai but never confessed, even avoiding her presence, making it no surprise that Gu Dai developed feelings for someone else.

Hearing Chu Min’s teasing, Gu Dai said, “Stop joking, I have an important task for you.”

Chu Min became serious, “What do you need me to do, boss?”

“Try to get in touch with Organization X,” Gu Dai instructed.

Chu Min, startled, then anxious, asked, “Boss, why are you suddenly mentioning Organization X? Are they causing trouble for you? Just wait, I’ll find a way to get close to them.”

Gu Dai coughed softly, “Not trouble for me, but for Su Ting’s company.”

Chu Min laughed teasingly and said clearly, “So that’s it.”

After he finished speaking, he suddenly realized what Gu Dai had just said and asked in confusion, “Su Ting’s company?”
