Rebirth with a Space to Counterattack and Abuse the Scumbag

"The show is about to begin..." These words, like a cold, venomous snake, instantly coiled around my heart, making my blood seem to freeze.

I clutched the letter tightly, the edges of the paper stinging my palms like sharp blades, but nothing compared to the raging anger surging within me.

I sneered, crumpled the letter into a ball, and threw it on the table.

The lights in the room seemed to dim, and the oppressive atmosphere was so heavy that it was hard to breathe.

That damned Zhou Cheng, he's like a persistent ghost!

Wasn't the lesson learned last time enough? How dare they try again!

It seems that if I don't teach him a lesson, he'll really think I, Miao Qing, am easy to bully!

I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down.

This time, I will never be passively beaten like last time.

I turned to look at Chen Yuzhen, who was standing there anxiously, her forehead covered in fine beads of sweat.

"Don't panic," I tried to keep my voice calm, "What exactly happened?"

Chen Yuzhen swallowed, her face growing even paler.

"Mr. Miao, this morning, several of our company's important orders were suddenly canceled, and... moreover, rumors that are detrimental to our company have started circulating online, saying that we cut corners and that our products have quality problems..."

My heart sank. It seemed that Zhou Cheng had come prepared this time, and his methods were even more insidious and ruthless.

He not only wants to ruin my company, but also wants to completely destroy my reputation!

I clenched my teeth, my nails digging deep into my palms.

"Has the source of these rumors been identified?"

"We're still investigating... but these accounts were all registered anonymously, and the IP addresses are very scattered, making them difficult to trace." Chen Yuzhen's voice trembled noticeably. "President Miao, what should we do?"

"Don't panic," I emphasized again, though I was already burning with anger inside, I had to remain calm on the surface.

"Immediately notify the public relations department to clarify the facts and collect evidence of all the rumors. I'm going to sue them for defamation!" I paused, my gaze sharp as a knife. "Also, have the technical department find out the source of these rumors. I want to see who's stirring up trouble behind the scenes!"

I got up and walked to the window, looking at the pitch-black night outside, feeling a chill in my heart.

This was definitely not a coincidence. Zhou Cheng must have planned it in advance. His failure last time made him even more desperate, and he must have made thorough preparations this time.

I clenched my fists, my knuckles cracking. Since he wanted to play, I'd play along to the end!

A knock came at the door, breaking the suffocating silence. I turned around and saw a familiar figure standing in the doorway—it was Gong Lin.

"I heard from Yuzhen that something happened to you here, so I came to check on you." His eyes were deep and calm, like a still, deep pool.

I nodded, said nothing more, and simply handed him the threatening letter.

He took the letter, glanced at it, and his face instantly darkened, his brows furrowing with intense anger.

"It seems some people are really tired of living." Gong Lin's voice was low and dangerous, like the calm before a storm.

He ripped the letter in his hand to shreds, then gripped my hand tightly and said firmly, "Don't be afraid. This time, I won't let them hurt you again." He leaned close to my ear and whispered, "I want to see who's courting death this time." I looked at Gong Lin, my heart filled with emotion, but I quickly calmed down because I was prepared.

I gently pulled open the drawer, took out a file folder, and a cold smile curled at the corner of my mouth.

“Look, this is the evidence of Zhou Chengxin’s crimes that I secretly collected. He thought he had covered his tracks perfectly, but little did he know that I had been watching him all along.” I poured the contents of the file bag onto the table: photos, documents, records—each item was enough to put Zhou Chengxin in a desperate situation once again.

I didn't immediately throw the evidence that was enough to ruin Zhou Cheng to the police or directly expose it to the media, thus completely revealing his conspiracy to the public.

Instead, I chose a path that surprised everyone—I took the initiative and went directly to him.

I told Gong Lin to go back and rest first, while I, carrying the file bag, walked straight into Zhou Cheng's lavishly decorated office under Chen Yuzhen's terrified gaze.

When he saw me, he was stunned for a moment, and then his face was covered with a fake smile.

"Mr. Miao, what brings you here? Please have a seat." He gestured to the sofa, feigning composure, but his eyes kept glancing at the file folder in my hand.

I sneered, but instead of sitting down, I threw the file folder onto the table with a dull thud.

"Mr. Zhou, let's be frank. I'm here today to discuss terms with you."

His smile froze, and his eyes turned gloomy.

"Conditions? Mr. Miao, you're joking. I don't quite understand."

I raised an eyebrow, pulled a photo from the file folder—evidence of his collusion with other companies to cut corners. I threw the photo in front of him. "Mr. Zhou, are you still going to play dumb? This is enough to put you in jail for life."

His face turned deathly pale instantly, cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and his lips trembled slightly, but he still forced himself to remain calm and said, "You... how did you get these? You're framing me!"

I ignored his explanations and leaned forward slightly, saying in an icy tone, "I don't want to waste my breath on you. My conditions are simple: completely withdraw from the business world and never set foot in this circle again. Otherwise, I will ruin your reputation and leave you with nothing."

His expression changed repeatedly, clearly weighing the pros and cons.

He knew that I possessed evidence that could ruin him forever, and if I were to expose it, everything he had would vanish.

He remained silent for a long time. Finally, like a deflated balloon, he slumped into his chair, his voice filled with despair.

"Okay...I promise you..."

A victorious smile played on my lips as I turned and left his office.

As I walked out of the company building and looked up at the clear blue sky, I felt an unprecedented sense of ease.

In this crisis, instead of passively taking a beating, I chose to take the initiative and used wisdom and strategy to completely defeat the enemy.

My company was thus revitalized, and its business reputation reached unprecedented heights.

Everyone looked at me with new respect, praising my intelligence and composure.

But I know this is not the end.

"Who will be the next target?" I murmured to myself, my tone filled with uncertainty and anticipation.

I saw Gong Lin leaning against his car not far away, giving me a slight smile. But that smile made me feel uneasy. He walked towards me, reached out and pulled me into his arms, and said softly, "Let's go, I'll take you somewhere."

As I walked out of Zhou Cheng's company, I breathed a sigh of relief. The cool night breeze brushed against my cheeks, easing some of the tension in my nerves.

Gong Lin's car came to a smooth stop on the side of the road. He opened the car door for me, and I got in. He leaned over to help me fasten my seatbelt, and his fingertips accidentally touched my skin, sending a tingling electric current through me.

He started the car, but instead of going straight home, he drove to a place I had never been before.

"Where are we going?" I asked curiously.

He smiled mysteriously, "You'll know when we get there."

The car eventually stopped in front of a high-end hotel, where elegantly dressed people mingled, wine glasses clinked, and the atmosphere was lively and bustling.

Gong Lin took my hand and led me into a lavishly decorated banquet hall, where many people had already gathered, dressed smartly and chatting happily.

"This is..." I was a little confused.

"A celebration banquet prepared for you." He leaned close to my ear and whispered, his warm breath brushing against my ear, making my heart race.

On the stage in the center of the banquet hall, the lights were focused, and I was pushed onto the stage by Gong Lin. Under the spotlight, I felt as if I were in a dream.

The audience erupted in applause and cheers. I saw my colleagues and business partners who had once doubted me, all smiling and raising their glasses to congratulate me.

I took the microphone, my heart filled with mixed emotions.

I was once framed by Zhou Cheng, which plunged my company into crisis, leaving me isolated and helpless.

And now, I stand here, enjoying the joy of success, all of which is inseparable from Gong Lin's support and help.

I gazed affectionately at Gong Lin below the stage. He was looking at me with a smile, his eyes filled with pride and love.

I reached out my hand to him, and without hesitation, he walked onto the stage and embraced me tightly.

The flashbulbs kept going off, capturing this beautiful moment.

In the following days, the company's performance rebounded, and everything was moving in a positive direction.

I was immersed in the joy of success, but I gradually noticed that some people around me were looking at me differently. Their gazes were no longer filled with pure congratulations and admiration, but rather...

"Mr. Miao, your makeup looks beautiful today," Assistant Xiaoli suddenly said, but her tone was somewhat strange.

I looked in the mirror and saw nothing unusual. "Really?"

Xiaoli didn't say anything more, but silently left.

Looking at myself in the mirror, a strange unease suddenly welled up inside me...
