The Legend of Cinderella's Counterattack
Chapter 44 Easy Start
Lawrence Lu's face was frighteningly pale. He grabbed his coat and rushed out. I realized the seriousness of the situation and immediately followed him. My heart was in my throat all the way, and my mind kept replaying what Lawrence Lu said on the phone: "Someone has planted a bomb in the company!"
The car sped along, my hands gripping the seatbelt tightly, my fingertips turning white from the strain. Finally, we arrived in front of the Lu Group building. The police had already set up a cordon, and the fire trucks and ambulance were already in place. The atmosphere was suffocatingly tense.
"What's going on? Is there anyone else inside?" Lawrence Lu rushed to the cordon and asked anxiously, ignoring the police's obstruction.
"Mr. Lu, please calm down. We have evacuated all employees in the building and no casualties have been found so far," a police officer said soothingly.
After hearing this, I breathed a sigh of relief, but the haze in my heart did not completely dissipate. Lawrence Lu’s expression was still grim, and he stared at the building closely, as if he wanted to see through it.
At that moment, there was a sudden loud bang from inside the building, followed by the sound of shattering glass and a cloud of smoke coming out of the window. My heart sank suddenly. Could it be that a bomb had exploded?
I was frightened by the sudden explosion and turned pale, my body shaking uncontrollably. Lawrence Lu held me in his arms tightly, his voice low and firm: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
The police and firefighters sprang into action, rushing into the building. We waited anxiously, each second seeming to stretch forever. Finally, after a long wait, the police emerged with a subdued man.
"The person has been caught, the bomb has been dismantled, and there are no casualties." The police officer reported to Lawrence Lu.
Hearing this, my heart finally relaxed, and I collapsed in Lawrence Lu's arms. He patted my back gently and comforted me, "It's okay, everything is over."
After experiencing this thrilling incident, we all cherish each other more and cherish our current life more. Lawrence Lu strengthened the company's security measures, and I also started to learn some self-defense skills in case of emergency.
With the company's crisis finally resolved, we finally had time to relax. My best friend and co-founder, Sophie, had lost a lot of weight from running around with the company. Seeing her exhausted, I felt both grateful and distressed.
"Fei Fei, you've worked hard. When the company's affairs are over, I will definitely reward you well." I held Sophie's hand and said sincerely.
Sophie smiled and said, "What are you talking about? We are best friends, so it's only natural for us to help each other. However, speaking of rewards, I do have a request."
"What request? Tell me." I asked curiously.
"I hope you can help me design a wedding dress." A happy blush appeared on Sophie's face.
"You're getting married?!" I asked in surprise, "To Mr. Wang?"
Sophie nodded, shyly admitting it. It turned out that Sophie and Mr. Wang's relationship had been rapidly developing, and they had decided to get married. I was happy for Sophie and relieved that she had found her own happiness.
Not only Sophie, but also our housekeeper Li, also found his own happiness at this time. Housekeeper Li had been with Lawrence Lu's father for many years and was loyal to the Lu family. He had always been single. This time, by chance, he met a kind and virtuous lady. The two fell in love at first sight and soon established a romantic relationship.
Watching everyone around me find their own happiness, my heart was filled with warmth and emotion. The entire Lu family was immersed in joy and laughter. And I, too, threw myself wholeheartedly into my fashion career. My designs, with their unique concepts and exquisite craftsmanship, were gaining popularity, and my brand gradually established itself in the fashion world, becoming a darling. Lu Yuxuan never failed to surprise me. I had assumed he'd be content with the status quo, guarding the Lu Group's fortunes. After all, he'd always projected a calm, strategic image. But this time, he seemed like a completely different person, his eyes brimming with ambition and fighting spirit.
"Lolo, I want to develop the Lu Group into a diversified enterprise, no longer limited to the real estate industry." He sat on the sofa in the study, holding a document in his hand, looking at me firmly.
I put down the fashion magazine in my hand, walked over to sit next to him, and asked with a smile, "Why did you suddenly come up with this idea? Did my fashion career give you inspiration?"
He held my hand, his eyes full of fondness. "Of course, my muse is the Queen of Fashion." He paused, his tone becoming serious. "I've always wanted to be your strongest supporter, and your success inspires me to keep moving forward. I want to prove to you that I can not only protect our family business, but also create our own business empire."
I was touched by the light in his eyes, and a warm feeling welled up in my heart. I knew that everything he did was for me, for our future. I leaned on his shoulder and whispered, "I believe in you. You can do it."
Thus, under Lu Yuxuan's leadership, the Lu Group began a series of reforms and transformations. His unique vision and decisive decisions expanded the company's business into various fields, including technology and finance. I, in turn, leveraged my connections and resources in the fashion industry to provide significant support for the Lu Group's transformation.
We have supported each other and made progress together. Although we have encountered many difficulties and challenges along the way, we have overcome them together. Thanks to our joint efforts, the Lu Group has grown stronger and stronger and has become a leader in the industry.
With the success of the Lu Group, our love story has become increasingly known. People admire our love and our careers. Our story has become a model for countless young people pursuing their dreams and pursuing happiness. Whenever I think of this, my heart is filled with pride and honor. Lately, I've been feeling very tired, and I can't even finish a few strokes of a design without falling asleep. At first, I thought it was just work, but that morning, when I woke up and felt a churning in my stomach, I realized belatedly that I was pregnant.
I held the pregnancy test stick nervously, the two red lines glaring. I took a deep breath, trying to calm my frantic heartbeat. The baby had arrived so suddenly, I wasn't prepared.
"What's wrong? You look so bad?" Lu Yuxuan had just returned from a morning run, with beads of sweat still on his forehead. Seeing that I looked flustered, he immediately asked with concern.
I bit my lip and handed him the pregnancy test stick. He was stunned at first, then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. He hugged me in his arms, speechless with excitement.
"We have a baby, Lolo, we are going to be parents!" He repeated this sentence over and over again, his tone full of disbelief and surprise.
I was infected by him and couldn't help but have tears in my eyes. Yes, we are going to be parents, a new life is about to come to us, what a wonderful feeling!
The Lu family was ecstatic when they heard the news of my pregnancy. My mother-in-law immediately dropped everything she was doing to start preparing the baby's room and even hired a professional nutritionist to help me with my health.
"Mom, don't bother with it. I'm fine." Looking at my mother-in-law busying around, I felt touched and a little embarrassed.
"Silly child, this is our Lu family's first child, so of course we have to prepare well." Grandma said with a smile, "Just rest assured and take care of the baby. Leave the rest to your father and me."
Lu Yuxuan spoiled me to the sky, turned down all his work, and stayed by my side every step of the way, fearing that I would get hurt.
"Yuxuan, I'm fine. You don't have to stay with me all the time." I said with a smile, "What about the company's affairs?"
"Company matters are not as important as you." He held my hand, his eyes gentle, "You are the key protected person in our family now, you don't have to worry about other things."
I was amused by his doting words, but a sense of unease welled up inside me. I always felt that this sudden happiness seemed a little too smooth...
