The Legend of Cinderella's Counterattack

"Lolo! Lolo! You finally woke up!"

I opened my eyes drowsily, and the dazzling sunlight made me squint a little uncomfortably. What came into view was Lawrence Lu's anxious face. The worry and concern in his eyes warmed my heart.

"What's wrong with me?" I struggled to sit up, but felt dizzy.

“You fainted,” Lawrence Lu supported me, his tone filled with a hint of fear, “The doctor said you might be overworked and need to rest well.”

Tired? A trace of doubt flashed through my mind. I remember that I was attending a banquet with Lawrence Lu, and then… then everything around me started to become distorted, and I couldn’t remember anything after that.

"Banquet...how was the banquet?" I grabbed Lawrence Lu's hand and asked anxiously.

"The banquet is over, don't worry, everything is fine." Lawrence Lu patted the back of my hand gently, indicating that I should be at ease.

I finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the doubts in my heart only grew stronger. I vaguely felt that something must have happened during my coma, but I just didn't know it yet.

I spent the next few days recuperating in the hospital. Lu Yuxuan stayed by my side, taking care of me meticulously. I learned from him that I had been in a coma for three whole days, which had scared everyone.

"The doctor said you're just too tired and need to rest for a while." Lawrence Lu said as he peeled an apple, "Don't worry about the company's affairs, I'm here to take care of it."

I nodded, saying nothing. I knew he was doing this for my own good, but I felt a tinge of unease. I had a feeling I'd missed something important during those three days I was unconscious.

After being discharged from the hospital, I returned to the Lu family's home. To my surprise, the once magnificent Lu family villa had become even more modern. From the furniture to the decorations, everything was imbued with a sense of technology, as if I were in a futuristic world.

"How is it? Do you like it?" Lawrence Lu asked with a smile, "I specially had it redecorated according to your preferences."

I looked around, my heart filled with surprise and moved. He knew that I liked a simple and modern style, so he specially renovated the whole house for me.

"This...this is too expensive, right?" I said a little embarrassedly.

“I’m willing to spend any amount of money for you.” Lawrence Lu scratched my nose lovingly, “Besides, it’s nothing. I just want you to live more comfortably.”

A warm feeling surged in my heart, and I knew that I had found a man who truly loved me.

In the days that followed, I slowly began to adapt to my new life. I discovered that Lawrence Lu's company had a wide range of businesses, spanning technology, finance, real estate, and other fields. I leveraged the knowledge I would acquire in the future to bring many innovative ideas and technologies to the company.

For example, I came up with the idea of applying artificial intelligence technology to our company's products and personally participated in its research and development. Leveraging my experience in the future world, I successfully developed an intelligent voice assistant that not only enables simple conversations but also provides personalized services tailored to user needs.

This intelligent voice assistant was immediately embraced by users, and the company's performance soared. Lu Yuxuan praised me highly, saying I had brought new vitality and hope to the company.

I was so engrossed in my work that I almost forgot the doubts I'd felt during my coma. Lu Yuxuan, on the other hand, put my ideas into practice. He seemed born to be at the pinnacle of business, masterminding strategies and winning victories from afar. Under his leadership, the company expanded rapidly, expanding its business scope from domestic to international.

I still remember our first international summit. That day, I wore the dress that Lawrence Lu had carefully chosen for me, and with his arm around my, I confidently walked into the venue. Surrounded by business elites from around the world, all elegantly spoken and well-mannered, I didn't feel the slightest bit of stage fright, because I knew Lawrence Lu was behind me, and the fruits of our shared efforts were behind me.

At the summit, Lawrence Lu successfully reached a strategic cooperation agreement with a multinational group with his keen business acumen and excellent negotiation skills. At that moment, I was extremely proud of him.

However, the road to success hasn't been smooth sailing. As the company continues to expand, we face increasing challenges. Malicious pressure from competitors and a rapidly changing market environment put us under tremendous pressure.

I will never forget that night when Lawrence Lu returned home, his face full of fatigue and frustration. That day, an important investment project of our company was stopped due to malicious reports from competitors.

"What's wrong?" I walked up to him, held his cold hand, and asked with concern.

Lawrence Lu shook his head, slumped down on the sofa, and buried his face in his hands. I knew he needed to vent, to be comforted. I sat quietly beside him, gently stroking his back, saying nothing.

After a long time, Lawrence Lu finally raised his head, his eyes were full of bloodshot, but his tone was extremely firm: “Lolo, I will not give up, I will definitely protect you and the company!”

I was touched by the determination in his eyes and nodded vigorously: "I believe in you, we will face this together!"

That night, we stayed up all night analyzing the situation and searching for solutions. I shared with Lu Yuxuan the business knowledge and management experience I had gained in Future World. With mutual encouragement and support, we finally found a solution to our predicament.

The next day, Lawrence Lu returned to the battle with our plan. With his extraordinary wisdom and courage, he finally resolved the crisis and successfully saved the company's interests.

After going through this storm, our relationship has become even deeper. We know that we are each other's strongest support. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we will face them together and never leave each other.

The company gradually got back on track, and my life returned to normal. We moved into our new home, a modern villa. Sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, filling the rooms with a bright and warm atmosphere. I still remember that day, standing on the second-floor terrace, overlooking the blooming flowers in the garden, my heart filled with happiness and longing.

"From now on, this will be our home." Lawrence Lu put his arms around my waist from behind, and his gentle voice rang in my ears. I nodded gently, and a sweet warmth surged in my heart.

Life after marriage was peaceful and happy. Lu Yuxuan and I both reduced our work and spent more time with each other. We traveled together, went to the movies together, cooked together, and enjoyed our own little world.

"What do you think about having a child?" Lawrence Lu suddenly suggested on a sunny afternoon.

I was slightly stunned, then smiled and nodded. Children are the best gift God has given us and the fruit of our love.

I experienced all the discomforts of pregnancy during the ten months of pregnancy, but every time I felt the baby kicking, my heart was filled with happiness and anticipation. Lu Yuxuan took great care of me, turning down all unnecessary social engagements, making delicious meals for me every day, taking walks with me, and telling me stories, fearing that I might make the slightest mistake.

Finally, on a spring morning, our child was born. He was a lovely little boy, and we named him Lu Xingchen, hoping that he would shine forever like a star.

The arrival of our child has brought so much joy and color to our lives. I've devoted the majority of my time and energy to him, accompanying him as he grows and witnessing every important moment of his life. Lu Yuxuan has been my rock, shouldering the majority of the housework and childcare responsibilities, allowing me to care for him with peace of mind.

My best friend, the one who'd been by my side since the beginning of my time travel, often brought her children to visit. The two children played together, grew up together, and became each other's best friends. Seeing their innocent smiles filled my heart with warmth and emotion.

There is also the loyal butler, who witnessed the whole process of Lawrence Lu and I from meeting to falling in love, and also witnessed the establishment of our family and the birth of our children. He is like a kind elder, silently guarding us and protecting us from wind and rain.

Life has its ups and downs, but we face them together. I believe that in the days ahead, our family of three, along with all the people who love us, will continue to be happy, forever.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Xingchen is already five years old. He is smart, lively and lovely, and is the most precious baby in our lives. On a sunny afternoon, our family of three, as usual, was enjoying a rare leisure time in the garden.

"Dad, I want to play hide-and-seek!" Xingchen giggled and hid behind a tall sycamore tree.

“Okay, Daddy will catch you right away!” Lawrence Lu looked at Xingchen lovingly, then winked at me, “Wife, let’s play too!”

I smiled and shook my head, watching them chasing and playing in the sun, my heart filled with happiness and satisfaction. I had imagined such a scene countless times in my dreams, and now it had finally become a reality.

However, at this moment, the sudden ring of my cell phone shattered the tranquility. I pulled out my phone and saw the caller ID was from a "best friend," and a sense of foreboding suddenly welled up in my heart.

"Hello? What's wrong?" My voice trembled slightly.

"Lolo, you...you come to the hospital quickly! I...my brother..." On the other end of the phone, my best friend's voice was intermittent, accompanied by suppressed crying.

My heart sank, and an inexplicable sense of fear instantly spread throughout my body. "Okay, I'll be right there!"

I hung up the phone and without explaining too much, I hurried towards the garage.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Lu Yuxuan noticed that something was wrong with me and asked quickly.

"My brother...something happened! I'm going to the hospital now!" I suppressed the uneasiness in my heart, explained briefly, started the car, and drove away from the villa at a high speed.

The entire way, my mind replayed my bestie's words, my heart filled with worry and fear. What on earth had happened to my brother? Had he had an accident?

I didn't dare to think any further and could only step on the accelerator desperately, hoping to get to the hospital as soon as possible.

However, fate always seems to like playing tricks on us. When I was less than a kilometer away from the hospital, a black car suddenly rushed out from the side and slammed into my car...

There was a loud bang, and my vision went blank. I could hear the shrill sound of brakes and the screams of the crowd. My consciousness began to fade, and before I completely lost consciousness, I vaguely saw a familiar figure sitting in the driver's seat of the black car...

"No! This isn't true! None of this is real!" I cried out in despair in my heart, but I was powerless to change anything...
