Lin Shuwen seemed distant as he looked at He Xiaoman and cut her off right there. “Every company has done a lot of groundwork for the bid. If Lu Corporation’s bid fulfills our conditions, we will get in touch with you.”
Lin Shuwen paused before he raised his hand to check the time. He seemed annoyed and said, “Sorry. I’m in a hurry here.”
The moment he finished his sentence, he opened the front passenger seat door.
He Xiaoman could keenly sense Lin Shuwen’s annoyance with her. If she missed out on this opportunity to talk to him, she might never get to see him again, so she bravely stepped forward and stood beside the car door. “Secretary Lin, one moment, please...”
Lin Shuwen’s hands froze and clearly looked angry at her interruption.

She could not help feeling slightly nervous while talking to Lin Shuwen. Despite her attempts to keep up the graces of a rich lady, it was exceptionally challenging.
“... I just wanted to know the reason for your sudden disinterest in Lu Corporation when you previously thought highly of us. If my actions made you unhappy, please allow me to apologize sincerely.” He Xiaoman cast aside all dignity.
Lin Shuwen found her words to be hilarious. “How did I give you such an impression?”
He Xiaoman choked. She recalled the things her husband had told her earlier before she replied. “Didn’t you previously ask for special attention to be given to Lu Corporation’s bid?”
Did it not mean that he saw a lot of potential in Lu Corporation and wanted to give the project to them. Wasn’t this the meaning of special attention being paid to a company?
Lin Shuwen caught on to what He Xiaoman was implying. His lips parted and said, “I think you have some misunderstanding about the term ‘special attention’.”
Lin Shuwen contemplated for two seconds and told her straightforwardly, “There’s no harm in telling you. Lu Corporation previously had a lot of potential, but sadly...”
Lin Shuwen laughed gently as he shook his head without going on to complete his sentence.
He Xiaoman held her breath. “... Was it because I gave you a bank card?”
Lin Shuwen looked at her sternly as he straightened his sleeve cuffs slowly without answering her.
He Xiaoman became increasingly worried. She went quiet for a few seconds before she asked him. “Why were we given special attention to begin with?”
Lin Shuwen thought about Huo Yao’s attitude towards He Xiaoman before he replied mildly. “That was a pure misunderstanding.”

Instead, Lin Shuwen smiled and shook his head without any intention of bringing up Huo Yao. After all, Fang Chen and he were the ones who were mistaken, so there was no sense in causing unnecessary trouble for her.
Lin Shuwen opened the car door and bent over to get in without providing any explanation and told the chauffeur to drive.
Even though He Xiaoman had more questions, the car had started, so she did not have the opportunity to go on probing him any further.
He Xiaoman stood where she was for a long time as she watched Lin Shuwen’s car drive off into the distance. She was still thinking about what he meant by misunderstanding even after her chauffeur had arrived with the car.
The chauffeur got off the car to greet He Xiaoman and get the door for her. She finally snapped out of her daze and watched as he waited reverently for her to get into the car. A shocking notion suddenly flashed in her mind as she looked at the chauffeur.
Lin Shuwen had treated her foster daughter with the same amount of respect as this lowly chauffeur was giving her...
