News came from Tiger's side that Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing seemed to be making some big moves, as if they were preparing for something important. Gu Yanting felt he couldn't wait any longer, so he decided to launch an attack ahead of schedule to disrupt Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing's plans.

10. Storm Approaching

At Gu Yanting's command, the media erupted in an instant. A flood of negative news about Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing poured in. False reports such as "Ah Yu committed business fraud, swindling huge sums of money from her business partners" and "Lin Wanqing interfered in someone else's relationship, ruining an engagement party" filled the internet and newspapers.

Suddenly, public opinion turned against Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing. Unaware of the facts, people began to hurl insults and attacks at them online. Ah Yu's company was severely affected; clients demanded contract cancellations, and the stock price plummeted.

Lin Wanqing looked at the appalling comments online and cried sadly, "Why? Why are they doing this to us? We didn't do anything!" Ah Yu hugged Lin Wanqing tightly and comforted her, "Wanqing, don't be sad. This is all Gu Yanting's conspiracy. We will definitely get through this."

Faced with this sudden crisis, Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing were not defeated. They knew that the most important thing now was to remain calm and quickly gather evidence to refute Gu Yanting. Ah Yu contacted Attorney Li and informed him of the current situation. Attorney Li said he would expedite the evidence collection process and suggested that they issue a statement refuting these false reports.

A fierce battle of public opinion has begun. Whether Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing can successfully turn the tide in this storm and escape Gu Yanting's trap remains to be seen...

XI. Preparations for Counterattack

Following Attorney Li's advice, Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing immediately held a press conference. At the press conference, Ah Yu solemnly addressed the media, saying, "Dear friends from the media, we are standing here today to clarify some false reports. All the claims about my commercial fraud and Lin Wanqing's interference in other people's relationships are malicious lies fabricated by someone. We have already obtained some evidence proving that all of this is Gu Yanting's conspiracy."

The media reporters in the audience began to discuss the matter. Some expressed doubt about Ah Yu's words, while others began to look forward to seeing more evidence. Lin Wanqing added from the side, "We have been secretly followed by Gu Yanting. He is trying to find something to use against us to frame us. I hope everyone will not be misled by these fake news reports."

However, a single press conference cannot completely reverse public opinion. After all, Gu Yanting's influence in the media is not to be underestimated, and many people still choose to believe the negative reports.

Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing understood that to truly succeed in their counterattack, they needed solid evidence. Therefore, they and Attorney Li accelerated their evidence-gathering efforts. Attorney Li traveled extensively, searching for key witnesses to testify. Ah Yu, meanwhile, diligently collected information on Gu Yanting's commercial crimes, hoping to find compelling evidence to refute him.

Meanwhile, Gu Yanting was annoyed to see Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing hold a press conference to refute their claims. He decided to increase his control over public opinion, allowing more media outlets to continue publishing smear reports against them, attempting to completely suppress Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing.

XII. The Difficult Path to Evidence Collection

Attorney Li encountered many difficulties in finding witnesses. Some witnesses were afraid to testify for fear of retaliation from Gu Yanting. "Attorney Li, I really want to help them, but Gu Yanting's influence is too great. If I step forward, my whole family might be in danger," one witness said helplessly.

Attorney Li could only keep reassuring them: "Don't worry, we will protect your safety and that of your family. And justice must be served; we cannot let the bad guys get away with it." After much effort, Attorney Li finally persuaded several witnesses to come forward and testify.

Ah Yu's efforts to gather evidence of Gu Yanting's commercial crimes were also fraught with difficulty. Gu Yanting was always cautious, and much of the evidence was well hidden. Ah Yu tried various channels, even risking infiltration into some secret locations within Gu Yanting's company, in an attempt to find crucial evidence.

Once, when Ah Yu sneaked into Gu Yanting's company archives, he was almost discovered by security. He hid in a corner, his heart pounding, barely daring to breathe. Only after the security guards left did he cautiously continue his search for evidence. After a difficult search, Ah Yu finally found some documents related to Gu Yanting's commercial bribery, which gave him a glimmer of hope.

Lin Wanqing was responsible for organizing and analyzing the evidence behind the scenes, while also dealing with the constant negative public opinion online. She used her connections to try to guide public opinion and make more people doubt Gu Yanting's motives.

On this arduous journey of gathering evidence, Ah Yu, Lin Wanqing, and Attorney Li support each other and work together. They firmly believe that as long as they find enough evidence, they will definitely be able to defeat Gu Yanting and clear their names.

Thirteen, Breakthrough in Key Evidence

After a period of effort, Ah Yu and Attorney Li finally made a major breakthrough. They found crucial evidence: an audio recording of Gu Yanting colluding with an official to conduct illegal business transactions. This recording clearly documented the details of their transaction and the content of their conversation, sufficient to prove Gu Yanting's commercial crimes.

"Great! With this evidence, Gu Yanting has nowhere to escape this time!" Ah Yu said excitedly. Attorney Li also smiled with relief: "That's right, this is a crucial blow. After we organize the other evidence, we can file a lawsuit in court."
