Rebirth of Love: Jiang Ciyou's Counterattack Legend
Chapter 672: Troubled by Rumors
Jiang Ciyou never thought that rumors would be like a fierce storm, completely disrupting her life which was gradually becoming peaceful.
Since her husband noticed the growing affection between her and Lu Jingchen, he began to use all means to try to pull her back to the past that made her desperate. He spread rumors everywhere, and those malicious lies spread like poisonous stings in their social circles and business fields.
At first, only some subtle rumors reached Jiang Ciyou's ears. During a regular meeting with a partner, the other party mentioned casually: "Ms. Jiang, there are some rumors outside recently, saying that you... are not very decent and have been entangled with other men during the continuation of your marriage. You must pay attention to the impact of this matter. After all, our cooperation is based on credibility." Jiang Ciyou was struck by lightning at the time, standing there in a daze, her face pale and red. She wanted to defend herself, but her throat seemed to be blocked, and she could only squeeze out a few pale and weak denials in a panic. Looking at the suspicion in the other party's eyes, her heart sank straight down.
Within a few days, the rumors intensified. Anonymous revelations began to appear on social media, with several blurry and tricky photos attached. In the photos, her accidental encounter with Lu Jingchen on the street and a brief conversation outside a coffee shop were all maliciously interpreted. The accompanying text was even more disgusting: "A certain abandoned woman of a wealthy family was unwilling to be lonely, and quickly hooked up with a mysterious new lover, and it was confirmed that she had cheated on her husband." These posts spread like a virus, and the comment area was filled with all kinds of abuse and slander: "This kind of woman should be despised, she changes her mind when she has money." "Dealing with men in the business world, the means are dirty enough." Jiang Ciyou looked at those vicious words, her hands trembled, tears rolled in her eyes, and her heart was full of helplessness and grievance.
In the company, the employees began to look at her with strange eyes. The assistant who was once close to her was privately questioned about the truth, and she was overwhelmed by it. She became trembling at work and dared not speak freely with Jiang Ciyou as usual. At the high-level meeting, several directors who originally supported her decision also showed hesitation and said tactfully: "Boss Jiang, there is a lot of panic outside the company now. Several partners have come to inquire about the situation. We have to think of a way to stabilize the situation, otherwise the project will be difficult to advance." Jiang Ciyou tried to stay calm and put forward a series of response plans, but the panic in her heart was like a turbulent undercurrent that could not be stopped.
Friends in real life were not spared. A close friend called her in tears: "Ciyou, I was buying groceries at the supermarket today, and someone was talking behind my back, saying that I was your friend and that hanging out with people like you would end badly. I don't mind, but what they said was too harsh. How did you get into all this trouble?" Jiang Ciyou felt guilty and could only keep apologizing to her close friend and comfort her, but after hanging up the phone, she broke down and cried. She felt as if she was trapped in an invisible net, and the more she struggled, the tighter she got.
She went out shopping to relax, and wanted to find some comfort in the familiar shops, but the seemingly casual but inquiring eyes of the shop assistants made her feel uneasy. When she tried on a piece of clothing, two customers next to her whispered, "It's her, the one in the news, she looks decent, but I didn't expect..." Jiang Ciyou's hands trembled, and the clothes almost slipped off. She hurriedly stuffed the clothes back into the hands of the shop assistant, and ran out of the store as if escaping, tears pouring out uncontrollably. At that moment, she felt that the whole world had become cold and unfamiliar. The city streets that she once loved were now full of hurtful arrows.
What made her even more sad was that some of her old friends gradually drifted away. Friends who once talked about everything and spent countless happy times together chose to protect themselves in this storm of rumors. She was no longer invited to parties, and when they occasionally met, they just exchanged a few awkward pleasantries before hurriedly saying goodbye. Jiang Ciyou looked at those figures going away, and her heart felt like it was torn apart. She didn't understand why the friendship that was once as solid as a rock became so fragile in the face of rumors.
When she returned home at night, Jiang Ciyou curled up on the sofa alone, and the silence around her seemed to swallow her up. She hugged her arms tightly, trying to give herself some warmth, but the chill in her heart could not be dispelled. The screen of her mobile phone lit up, showing various unread message reminders. She clicked on them with trembling hands, and saw a bunch of insulting text messages from unfamiliar numbers, "Shameless woman, destroying other people's families" and "Wait for your own disgrace"... She collapsed and threw her phone aside, crying bitterly. This home that was once full of love and hope is now shrouded in darkness, and her sobs echoed in every corner.
In this difficult situation, Jiang Ciyou felt like she was about to suffocate. She didn't know how to cut off the rumors flying all over the sky, how to find the confident and free-spirited self she once was. The maliciousness was like a tide, hitting her mental defenses wave after wave, but she couldn't find a harbor to hide. She could only endure all the pain and suffering alone in this storm, hoping that the dawn of light would soon penetrate this endless darkness.
