The glass curtain wall of Financial Street reflected the scorching summer sun, and Lin Xia's hand holding the diagnosis report trembled slightly under her suit skirt. Stage 3 gastric ulcer - this was the price she paid for winning the department performance championship for three consecutive years. The moment the elevator door opened and closed, she heard the familiar laughter coming from the new director's office. The director position that should have belonged to her was occupied by a Harvard MBA who had landed from the headquarters. The age of twenty-eight is like a curse. In investment banking, a field based on seniority, her talents are becoming the target of public criticism.
When the case of acquiring Yunfan Group was deliberately thrust into her hands, Lin Xia smelled a conspiracy. This real estate company with an alarming debt ratio hides a secret factional war among the board of directors, and her immediate boss is smiling and extending a poisonous olive branch. In the emergency room late at night, the green light of the ECG monitor was beating on the pale wall. She stared at an old photo that suddenly appeared in the client profile - the graduation photo of Lu Chenxi, the boss of Yunfan, and her first boyfriend who she left without saying goodbye three years ago was standing there.
The hunting ground of the capital market is never gentle, and the unknown capital flows discovered by Lin Xia during due diligence were like cobwebs wrapped around his throat. Whispers in the tea room began to spread the rumor that "the devil will do whatever it takes to get the upper hand". On the eve of the arrival of the headquarters inspection team, all project information mysteriously disappeared. When she saw her boss toasting with her competitors at Lu Chenxi's private club, she finally realized that she was just a pawn in the chess game of power.
Determined to fight back, Lin Xia tore up the consent form for surgery under the moonlight. She wants to use the equity holding agreement hidden in a Swiss bank as bait to attract shareholders in the upcoming meeting.
