Jiang Li is a renowned tax and financial compliance specialist, known for fixing messy accounts, fraudulent books, and hopelessly muddled ledgers.
She once stood by Gu Qingheng as he rose from rock bottom to the public eye, building his financial models, helping him avoid risks, and personally guiding him to the pinnacle of the financial world.
But after Gu Qingheng made his name, he decided she was “not presentable enough.” He turned around and got engaged to a wealthy heiress, then deliberately invited Jiang Li to witness the engagement ceremony.
Everyone expected Jiang Li to make a scene.
Instead, she took the stage with a glass of orange juice and smiled as she offered her congratulations:
“May you two enjoy a long and happy marriage, and may your company have an easy time paying its back taxes.”
The next moment, three financial reports landed in front of everyone.
Inflated revenue, related-party transactions, undisclosed debt.
A dignified engagement party instantly turned into a spectacular financial and tax scandal.
Gu Qingheng thought Jiang Li was only getting revenge for their past relationship. He never imagined that, as she dug through his company’s rotten books, she would uncover a buried case from twenty years ago.
Lu Xingzhou, the missing heir to the Lu family.
The compensation money that had been stolen.
The medical records that had been altered.
An identity fraud dressed up as charitable restitution.
And the car crash involving her mother, Lin Zhiwei, which had never truly been investigated.
Everyone urged her to stop.
Some said to leave the past alone.
Some said the waters ran too deep among the powerful families.
Some said that a woman, no matter how good she was at auditing accounts, couldn’t take on the entire financial establishment.
This is not a story about a woman waiting for a CEO to rescue her.
It is the story of a tax and financial compliance specialist who uses statements, evidence, cash flows, and tax records to bring down her ex, pry open the secrets of the powerful, reclaim blood debts, and lead those whose names were stolen back into the light, one by one.
