When Lin Shuwen saw He Xiaoman, he was stunned. He hadn't expected to see her at this time. When he came back to his senses, he frowned.
Had she been waiting for him?
Lin Shuwen turned sideways at the thought of Fang Chen, so he tried his best to cover his face.
It would be annoying if he let her pester Fang Chen.
Fang Chen noticed Lin Shuwen's action and looked at him quizzically. He quickly followed Lin Shuwen's gaze and saw He Xiaoman.
Fang Chen had never seen He Xiaoman before, so he only looked at her for two seconds before veering his eyes away.
"I think she's your foster mother," said Min Yu nonchalantly with his hands in his coat pockets.
"Huh?" Huo Yao was stunned for a second before she raised her head. The moment she saw He Xiaoman, she could not help but lament how small the world was.
They had bumped into each other at that restaurant in the city center last time. Now, they had bumped into each other again. Tsk.
Huo Yao pursed her lips. Her exquisite face looked rather languid as she replied. "Enemies are bound to cross each other's path."
Lin Shuwen suddenly turned to look at Huo Yao in astonishment. "Enemies are bound to cross each other's path?"
Clearly, he did not understand what she meant.
Lin Shuwen had asked his men to look into Huo Yao's background, but he had only done a general check. He had not considered whether they were close or not.
Huo Yao raised her brow and said, "Oh, my bad. I don't know her."
Lin Shuwen was slightly surprised. Just as he was about to ask for more details, Huo Yao veered her eyes away and said to Min Yu, "Let's go."
Min Yu glanced at her and nodded. "Uh huh."
Huo Yao turned to look at Lin Shuwen and Fang Chen. "Secretary Lin, Mr. Fang, we'll be taking our leave."
She pursed her lips and nodded before heading out of the clubhouse without waiting for them to say anything.
She walked at a steady pace. She was tall and slender, and her coat was slightly open. She exuded a cool aura. She complemented the dignified man walking beside her and created a striking image.
"These two look like a good match." Lin Shuwen looked at the backs of the two and commented from the bottom of his heart.
Fang Chen merely glanced at him without saying a word.
Lin Shuwen covered his mouth and coughed dryly. He glanced at He Xiaoman standing nearby. Since Huo Yao said she did not know him, there was no need for him to interact with her.
She turned to Fang Chen and said, "Sir, let's go."
Fang Chen nodded and walked out of the room.
Seeing that he was about to leave, He Xiaoman chased after him in her high heels. "Secretary Lin …"
Fang Chen's bodyguard had already driven up to the entrance of the club. Lin Shuwen frowned slightly when he heard He Xiaoman's voice. He contemplated before letting Fang Chen get into the car first. After closing the door, he turned around unhurriedly.
His face was cold and indifferent.
He Xiaoman instinctively glanced at the black car behind Lin Shuwen after she chased after him. However, the car door was already shut, and the black windows blocked her view. She could not see Fang Chen getting into the car.
Clenching her fists, He Xiaoman's gaze fell on Lin Shuwen. She took a deep breath and said, "Secretary Lin, I hope you won't take what happened in the private room to heart. Just pretend that nothing happened. Actually, our Lu Group has been preparing for this bid for more than half a year. It can be said that …"
