After Gu Zhen returned from his mission, Li Xinyue thought things would become peaceful again.
But she was wrong.
The moment she decided to change her fate, the future began changing too.
And her enemies noticed.
One week later.
The Li Group was preparing for an important business cooperation.
This project was one of the biggest opportunities for the company.
In her previous life, Li Xinyue remembered this project.
It had failed.
Not because the Li family lacked ability.
But because someone had secretly leaked confidential information to their competitors.
At that time, the company suffered a huge loss.
Her father became seriously ill from the pressure.
And she…
She had been too busy fighting with Gu Zhen to notice.
This time, she would not allow it.
“Miss Li.”
Chen Wei entered her office.
“The cooperation documents are ready.”
Li Xinyue took the file.
“Good.”
She looked through the pages carefully.
Then she stopped.
Something was wrong.
“This document was changed.”
Chen Wei was shocked.
“Changed?”
Li Xinyue pointed at one section.
“The profit distribution.”
She narrowed her eyes.
“Someone modified the original agreement.”
Chen Wei’s expression became serious.
“How did you notice?”
Li Xinyue was silent for a moment.
Because she had seen this mistake before.
“I pay attention to details.”
That was the only answer she gave.
At the same time, inside a private room.
Two people sat across from each other.
One was Li Haoran.
The other was a businessman from a rival company.
“Everything is ready?”
Li Haoran asked.
The man smiled.
“Don’t worry. Once this cooperation fails, the Li Group’s reputation will be damaged.”
Li Haoran nodded.
He believed everything was under control.
He did not know…
Li Xinyue had already seen the trap.
The next day, the cooperation meeting began.
Many important businessmen attended.
Everyone expected the Li family to make a mistake.
But when the contract was presented, Li Xinyue calmly stood up.
“Before we begin, I have something to clarify.”
Everyone looked at her.
She placed a document on the table.
“This is the original contract.”
Then she placed another document beside it.
“And this is the modified version.”
The room became silent.
The rival businessman’s expression changed.
“Miss Li, what are you implying?”
Li Xinyue smiled.
“I am not implying anything.”
“I am stating a fact.”
Her voice became cold.
“Someone attempted to damage this cooperation.”
The people around the table started whispering.
After the meeting ended successfully, Chen Wei looked at her with admiration.
“Miss Li, you handled that perfectly.”
Li Xinyue looked out of the window.
“This is only the beginning.”
She knew her enemies would not stop.
They would become more dangerous.
That evening, Gu Zhen returned home.
He noticed immediately that something was wrong.
“You had trouble today.”
It was not a question.
Li Xinyue looked at him.
“How did you know?”
“I know your expression.”
She was surprised.
“You can tell?”
Gu Zhen nodded.
“I have studied enemies for years.”
A small smile appeared.
“Apparently, I need to study my wife too.”
Li Xinyue laughed softly.
For a moment, Gu Zhen looked at her.
He loved seeing this side of her.
The side that smiled.
The side that was no longer distant.
Later that night, Gu Zhen stood on the balcony.
His expression became cold.
He received a message.
Someone is targeting Madam Gu.
His eyes darkened.
The gentle husband disappeared.
The legendary commander returned.
No one was allowed to hurt his wife.
Not anymore.
