Rebirth with a Space to Counterattack and Abuse the Scumbag

Chapter 148 The First Chaos of Supernatural Abilities: A Setback in Career

A sharp headache pulled me out of my daze. I opened my eyes abruptly and saw the familiar ceiling of the company's conference room.

what happened?

Didn't Gong Lin and I find the treasure?

I tried hard to recall what happened before I lost consciousness: the spatial power surge, Miya Rin's worried eyes...

Oh, right, Miya Rin!

I immediately sat up and found myself sitting at the conference table, holding a cooperation proposal in my hand.

"Mr. Miao, are you alright?" A slightly concerned voice came from beside me.

I turned my head and saw that it was Chen Lixin, the company manager, with a hint of impatience on his face.

That's when I realized I was in a meeting, and sitting across from me were several important business partners.

But I have no recollection of what just happened; all I feel is a splitting headache and a stirring power within me.

I forced a smile. "It's nothing, I was just feeling a little unwell."

I tried to concentrate and continue explaining the plan, but I felt that the force was becoming increasingly difficult to control.

The conference room lights began to flicker, and a strange energy fluctuation filled the air.

I had a bad feeling and desperately tried to suppress the restless power within me, but my palms were sweating.

"What's going on? This light..." A partner pointed in confusion at the flickering light tube overhead.

Before he could finish speaking, a sudden gust of wind arose, scattering the documents on the table and throwing the conference room into chaos.

The partners dodged the flying papers in terror, some even screaming.

"Huh! What's going on?"

"President Miao, you..."

Looking at the chaotic scene, I was filled with guilt and anxiety.

I know this is because my superpower has gone out of control.

I tried to explain, but found myself unable to utter a single word.

"Mr. Miao, what do you mean by this? Did you call us here just to see this?" a business partner asked angrily.

“That’s right, this collaboration of ours is related to…” another partner chimed in.

"Mr. Miao, this is incredibly irresponsible of you!"

Chen Lixin also took the opportunity to complain, "President Miao, your frequent absences from your post lately have seriously affected the company's business. And now..."

Looking at their questioning, angry, and dissatisfied eyes, I felt helpless.

I know that the consequences of this loss of control over superpowers are very serious. It will not only affect cooperation, but also damage the company's image.

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

I can't panic. I must find a way to control my powers and resolve the current crisis.

Just as I was about to explain, a cold voice came from the doorway...

What are you all doing?

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

I can't panic. I must find a way to control my powers and resolve the current crisis.

Just as I was about to explain, a cold voice came from the doorway.

All eyes turned to the doorway instantly. Gong Lin stood there, his cold face exuding an unapproachable aura.

His sharp gaze swept over the chaotic scene in the conference room, finally settling on me.

I felt a sense of relief, but mostly pressure.

"Mr. Miao, what do you mean by this? Did you call us here just to see this?" a business partner asked angrily, his voice filled with obvious dissatisfaction and doubt.

“That’s right, this collaboration of ours is related to…” another partner chimed in, a hint of anxiety in his voice.

"President Miao, this is so irresponsible of you!" Chen Lixin took the opportunity to complain, his tone full of reproach.

I took a deep breath to calm myself down.

I know that I must take concrete actions to prove myself in the face of these doubts.

I stood up, faced the crowd, and said in a firm yet calm tone: "Everyone, what is happening right now is indeed something I could not have foreseen. But please believe me, I will not let this accident affect our cooperation. To compensate for any potential losses, I am willing to add extra safeguards to our cooperation. If the company suffers any losses due to this superpower issue, I am willing to bear them personally."

The conference room fell silent instantly; everyone was stunned.

The partners looked at each other, their faces showing surprise.

Chen Lixin's expression also became complicated, clearly not expecting me to take responsibility so decisively.

"Mr. Miao, is this... really okay?" a business partner asked hesitantly.

“No problem,” I replied firmly. “It’s what I should do. I believe we can overcome this difficulty and continue to cooperate.”

My words eased the tension in the meeting room a little.

Gong Lin's gaze remained fixed on me, his eyes filled with support and encouragement.

"Alright, let's continue today's meeting." As soon as I laid out the documents on my desk, my supernatural abilities started to stir again, and my palms became sweaty.

I know I must control this force as soon as possible.

"Excuse me, everyone, I need to leave temporarily to handle some urgent matters." I stood up and walked towards the conference room door, feeling the strange looks around me.

With each step I took, my heart grew heavier, and the space seemed to grow colder.

As I walked out of the meeting room, I heard murmurs behind me, but I didn't stop.

My heart was filled with grievance and loneliness. I took a deep breath and resolutely walked towards the superpower research lab.

"Mr. Miao, you've arrived." Researcher Liu Deyu's voice rang out at the door of the research room.

I strode into the research lab, greeted by the humming of various instruments, a faint smell of disinfectant mixed with the cold metallic scent in the air.

Liu Deyu pushed up his glasses, the lenses reflecting the light and appearing somewhat dazzling.

“Mr. Miao, we haven’t found an effective way to control your supernatural abilities yet. However…” He paused, seemingly hesitant, “we’ve discovered that your supernatural abilities seem to be related to your emotional fluctuations.”

mood?

I frowned, trying hard to recall the events before I lost consciousness.

When the spatial power surged, I did feel a sense of panic and anxiety.

Is it really because of emotions?

"So, if I can control my emotions, I can control my superpowers?"

"That's true in theory, but it's very difficult to put into practice." Liu Deyu's tone was tinged with helplessness. "We've also tried some methods of emotional control, but the effects haven't been significant."

I walked up to a machine, and the screen displayed the fluctuating curve of the energy in my body, undulating like a restless venomous snake.

I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down, and imagined a calm lake, clear flowing water, and fragrant flowers in the space.

Gradually, I felt the restless energy within me begin to subside, and the curve on the screen gradually stabilized.

"It works!" Liu Deyu's voice carried a hint of surprise. "President Miao, please try it again!"

I continued to take deep breaths, maintaining inner peace and feeling the flow of energy within my body.

The curve fluctuated less and less, eventually becoming a flat straight line.

I opened my eyes, let out a long sigh of relief, and a relieved smile appeared on my face.

"Qing'er." A warm, large hand enveloped mine. I turned my head and saw Gong Lin standing beside me, his eyes filled with concern and love.

"Don't worry about company matters, I'll handle it."

I took his hand in return, feeling the warmth of his palm, and a warm feeling welled up in my heart.

"Thank you, Miya Rin."

"There's no need for thanks between us." He gently pulled me into his arms, and I rested my head on his chest, listening to his steady heartbeat, as if all my troubles had disappeared.

Just then, the lab door was suddenly pushed open, and a series of hurried footsteps approached from afar...

The door to the research room was suddenly pushed open, and Chen Lixin stormed in, his face full of anger.

He walked straight up to me, his tone forceful: "President Miao, are you trying to abandon the company again? Do you even know what the company's current situation is? Can't you have some sense of responsibility and focus your energy on the company's business?"

His aggressive attitude ignited my anger. I forcefully shook off Gong Lin's hand and said coldly, "Manager Chen, my private affairs are none of your business. How I do things is none of your concern!"

"Private matters? You've made a mess of the company, and now you call it a private matter? How can you face the company's shareholders and the hardworking employees?" Chen Lixin didn't back down, his voice getting louder and louder, his spittle almost hitting my face, and a faint smell of tobacco made me feel nauseous.

"Enough!" I slammed my hand on the table, glaring at Chen Lixin. "Manager Chen, watch your words! I have my reasons for everything I do. You have no right to interfere with my decisions!"

"You..." Chen Lixin was intimidated by my imposing manner, and his tone softened slightly, but still carried a hint of dissatisfaction. "President Miao, I know you are highly capable, but you can't just do whatever you want like this, can you? The company doesn't belong to you alone; you should also consider the others."

Gong Lin stepped forward, blocking my way, his gaze fixed coldly on Chen Lixin, an invisible pressure instantly enveloping the entire research lab.

His tone was low and authoritative: "Manager Chen, I will handle Qing'er's matter. Just do your job well, and there's no need to say anything more."

Chen Lixin's expression changed. "Isn't it inappropriate for you to interfere like this?"

Just as I was about to retort, my phone suddenly rang.

I took out my phone and saw that it was the head of the R&D department calling.

My heart sank; I had a premonition that something bad was about to happen.

I pressed the answer button, and my supervisor's anxious voice came from the other end of the line: "President Miao, something terrible has happened! The new product development has failed! The experimental equipment... the experimental equipment was affected by the previous energy fluctuations, resulting in the loss of all experimental data!"

I felt a sudden darkness engulf me, as if struck by a bolt of lightning. My phone slipped from my hand and fell to the floor with a dull thud.

I stumbled, and Gong Lin quickly steadied me. His hand gripped my shoulder tightly, and I could feel the warmth and strength in his palm.

"Qing'er, what's wrong?" His tone was tinged with worry.

I shook my head weakly, my lips trembling, but I couldn't make a sound.

The failure of new product development was undoubtedly a huge blow to me.

I put in so much effort and invested so much money, but in the end, it all came to nothing.

This is not just a financial loss, but also a heavy blow to my self-confidence.

"The research lab... I need to go to the research lab..." I squeezed out these words through my teeth, using all my strength.
