The Path of Revenge After Rebirth - Chapter 24
The day I returned to the country, the first snow fell gently, covering the ground.
As I walked out of the airport with my suitcase, I immediately spotted the billboard beside me.
On it was Lin Jiu’s exquisitely made-up face.
These past few years, while I was abroad busy founding Lanxin, preparing to compete with Lu Xinting as he gradually took over Lu Corporation, he hadn’t been idle either.
Despite failing to be specially recruited and failing the interview, Lin Jiu was still sent by him into the Film Academy, successfully debuting in the entertainment industry.
I laughed mockingly and got into the car.
Driving through the traffic lightly covered by snow, the car headed straight to the company building.
The bidding meeting three days later was another crucial milestone.
Qin Zhilan and I were immersed in the company day and night, ensuring the plan was optimized to perfection.
Then, at the public bidding site, we won the contract without any suspense.
When the winning company was announced, I stood up from my seat, meeting Lu Xinting’s shocked gaze beside me.
“You! Lu Xinxi!”
I curled my lips slightly, “Long time no see, brother.”
As it ended, he chased me all the way out, blocking me in the corridor.
His tone still carried a hint of disbelief:
“Lanxin is your company?”
“After Qin Zhilan disappeared, you hid her, didn’t you?!”
“You’re in such a hurry, Lu Xinting.”
I burst into laughter, “What do you mean by hiding her? You don’t even know her, why are you so obsessed with finding a living person?”
“Could it be you’re planning some illegal activities?”
Then, under his suddenly sharp gaze, I laughed and left.
This time returning to the country, I was extremely high-profile, and after securing the contract, I began socializing everywhere, meeting many renowned figures in the business world.
Because I held the exclusive patent rights of Qin Zhilan and had just snatched a major project from Lu Corporation, everyone was very courteous and extremely friendly to me.
This was something I never experienced in my previous life, even after winning three Best Actress awards.
“People, indeed, need to control the means of production.”
I raised my wine glass and sighed.
Beside me, Su Lan turned her head, looking me up and down:
“How come I feel that you only went away for four years, but came back as if you’ve matured ten years?”
“It’s quite normal, I suppose. After all, at eighteen, one can act recklessly relying on youth.”
I said, “Now that I’ve graduated from university, I have to put on a decent front before showing my fangs.”
After speaking, I raised the paddle in my hand and bid:
“Two million.”
Lin Jiu, sitting in the front row, suddenly turned her head.
Along with Jiang Tian, who was sitting beside her, also looked at me.
The moment our eyes met, he was slightly lost.
I keenly noticed the faint scar on his forehead.
Suddenly, I found it particularly amusing.
“…Two million six hundred thousand.”
Coming back to his senses, he raised his paddle non-stop, starting to bid against me.
I knew that this diamond-studded bracelet was what he wanted to buy for Lin Jiu as a gift.
Because in a few days, it would be Lin Jiu’s birthday.
Even though he used all means to barely have some say in Jiang Family’s company, it was far from Lu Xinting’s sole dominance over Lu Corporation.
To win favor, he could only seek other ways to please.
I accompanied him all the way in bidding, watching him spend six million to buy that bracelet.
I laughed, “Such deep affection.”
Jiang Tian held the bracelet, silently looking at me.
After a long while, he softly called, “Xinxin.”
“Please stop, I’m going to throw up.”
I exaggeratedly stepped back, looking him up and down.
After a moment, I sneered lightly,
“More capable than your mistress mom, at least she succeeded in climbing up.”
“Just wondering how you and my brother arrange your schedules, you on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, he on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday together?”
When I said this, my volume was not concealed at all.
Sure enough, as soon as the auction ended, business friends came to me to inquire about what was going on.
I looked troubled, “My brother and that illegitimate child from Jiang Family fell for the same little star, oh, it’s just this matter, who doesn’t have a lovesick person in their family. For true love, anything can be tolerated.”
Not only did I spread gossip about the three of them.
I also entered the film industry with funds, promoting new female stars.
Snatching several of Lin Jiu’s key roles from her previous life.
Lu Xinting couldn’t bear his little white flower being wronged outside.
He decisively took action against me.
Just right, this was what I was waiting for.
If he didn’t make a move, how could he reveal his flaws?
