The Legend of Cinderella's Counterattack

"Who called? What did he mean?" I grabbed Lawrence Lu's arm tightly and asked anxiously, my heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand.

Lawrence Lu took a deep breath and gently pulled me into his arms, trying to use his warmth to dispel the chill in my heart. "It's okay, don't be afraid, I'll take care of everything," he said gently, but the furrowed brow and the cold glint in his eyes betrayed the turmoil in his heart.

"But he said the real enemy hasn't appeared yet. Could it be that all that happened before was just..." My voice trembled, not daring to think further. If all that happened before was just the beginning, then what awaited us next?

Lawrence Lu didn't answer, but just hugged me tighter. I knew that at this moment he must be thinking about how to deal with this sudden crisis.

Over the next few days, Lawrence Lu became extremely busy. He strengthened the company's internal security measures, and all personnel entering and leaving the company were subject to strict inspections. At the same time, he also mobilized all his connections to investigate the source of the mysterious phone call and the mastermind behind it.

I watched him busy at work, my heart filled with worry and heartache. I knew that this invisible war had just begun...

I looked at his exhausted face and felt heartbroken. I knew I couldn't share the intrigues of the business world with him, but I could do my best to protect our love and our home.

My personal fashion brand "Luoshen" has accumulated a certain degree of popularity and fan base after operating for a period of time. I decided to use this platform to speak out for the Lu Group and cheer for Lawrence Lu.

I began to frequently share the latest developments of the Lu Group on social media, and personally designed a series of clothing with the theme of "Trust and Protection", and launched them as the latest models of "Luo Shen".

Unexpectedly, this series of clothing triggered a buying frenzy as soon as it was launched. Even many fashion bloggers and celebrities spontaneously cheered for "Luo Shen", and the number of my Weibo followers increased at an astonishing rate.

However, just when I was feeling gratified by all this, some discordant voices began to emerge within the Lu Group.

First, some negative news about Lu Yuxuan began to circulate on the company's internal network, saying that he was willful and arbitrary, and someone even anonymously reported him for suspected commercial fraud.

Soon after, some partners who had previously worked closely with the Lu Group also began to propose to terminate their contracts, on the grounds that they were worried that cooperation with the Lu Group would affect their own reputation.

For a time, the Lu Group seemed to be caught in a huge conspiracy, and the situation was precarious and people were in panic.

"Yuxuan, who is behind this? Why are they doing this?" I asked anxiously, my palms holding the phone already full of sweat.

Lawrence Lu’s face was terribly gloomy. He clenched his fists tightly and said with gritted teeth, “I will definitely find out everything, and I will never let go of those who are hiding in the dark and making trouble!”

I held his hand tightly and gave him a firm look: "No matter what happens, I will be by your side and we will face it together."

Lawrence Lu took a deep breath, hugged me in his arms, and stroked my hair gently: “Thank you, Lolo.”

We decided to take the initiative and not sit idly by. Lawrence Lu began investigating the rumors and anonymous reports within the company, while I gathered the "Luo Shen" design team to prepare a fashion show exclusively for Lu Group employees, using this opportunity to boost morale and rally people's hearts.

Preparations for the fashion show are proceeding in an orderly manner. I personally participated in the design of the clothing and the selection of models. I hope to convey confidence and strength to the employees through every piece of clothing and every detail.

However, just a few days before the fashion show, I received an anonymous text message: "Want to find the mastermind? Come to the abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city, I'll be waiting for you."

My intuition told me that this text message was likely related to a series of recent events in the Lu Group. I immediately forwarded the text message to Lawrence Lu and decided to go to the appointment in person.

"No, it's too dangerous. I can't let you go alone!" After seeing the text message, Lu Yuxuan's face suddenly became solemn. He firmly opposed me taking the risk.

"Don't worry, I will be careful. Have you forgotten what I did before?" I smiled casually, trying to dispel his concerns.

In the end, Lawrence Lu was still worried about me going alone, so he decided to go with me.

We followed the instructions in the text message and drove to the abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city. As soon as I got out of the car, a gloomy and terrifying atmosphere hit me. I couldn't help but shudder and subconsciously leaned towards Lawrence Lu.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Lawrence Lu held my hand tightly and comforted me softly.

We walked into the factory cautiously, looking around, hoping to find some clues.

In the dim light, a blurry figure sat on a pile of debris. Hearing our footsteps, he slowly turned around. In the dim light, I couldn't see his face clearly, but I could feel the sharp gaze he cast at me.

"It's you?!" Lawrence Lu obviously recognized the person, his tone was filled with disbelief and a hint of anger.

My heart tightened. Could it be that Lawrence Lu knew this person?

"Mr. Lu, long time no see." The man stood up from the pile of debris, dusted himself off, and said with a hint of sarcasm, "Why, surprised?"

"Why do you do this?" Lawrence Lu ignored his sarcasm and asked directly.

"Why? Haha, that's a good question!" The man suddenly became excited. "Why can you, Lawrence Lu, have everything at such a young age, while I have to struggle just to survive? How am I worse than you?!"

"In business competition, everyone relies on their own abilities. Don't you feel ashamed for using such tactics?" I couldn't help but speak.

The man turned to look at me, a hint of viciousness flashing in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. He sneered, "The victor is king and the loser is a bandit. This has been the way it has been since ancient times. You can certainly accuse me from a moral high ground now, but if I succeed, who will care about my methods?"

“You are wrong,” Lawrence Lu said calmly, “Even if you succeed, you will not get what you want, and you will only get yourself deeper and deeper into trouble.”

The man was silent, as if thinking about Lawrence Lu’s words. After a long time, he sighed, with a hint of dejection in his tone, “At this point, what’s the point of saying this? Just do whatever you want.”

Just when I thought this matter was finally coming to an end, Lawrence Lu’s cell phone suddenly rang. He answered the call and his expression instantly became solemn.

"What did you say?!" Lawrence Lu's voice suddenly rose several degrees, "How could this happen?! I know, I'll be there right away!"

He hung up the phone and gripped it tightly, his knuckles turning slightly white from the force. I had never seen him so out of control, and a sense of foreboding suddenly arose in my heart.

"What happened?" I asked anxiously.

“The company…something happened at the company.” Lawrence Lu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, “Someone planted a bomb in the company!”
